Ken
Evan's almost like his dad is super rich and he doesn't care about, like, the financial consequences of his actions.
Ben
They've created a monster.
Mike
I wouldn't consider myself ocd, but just weird things, like if I'm drinking out of the faucet, I have to take 10 drinks.
Ken
I think that is, like.
Mike
That's like OCD.
Ken
Yeah, to a T. So do you.
Ben
Guys know the backstory on Barry?
Ryan
You come with some Hot Topics this week?
Evan
Absolutely not.
Mike
He came with. He came with some hot wings.
Ben
That's it.
Ryan
No Hot Topics. The comments consensus is Evan might be coming for your job gripes. Are you worried about possibly losing your job on this podcast?
Evan
You think Evan has enough words that he can string a sentence together with?
Ryan
Yeah, I mean, he did pretty dang good last time.
Evan
I don't know what's going on.
Ryan
And now you got your mouth full of food. You're munching back there. I've been working all morning. You probably got the Hub pulled up on your computer.
Ben
Jeez.
Mike
But yeah, that.
Ken
I think Ken would love nothing more than for Evan to take his job on the podcast.
Ben
I was going to say that doesn't sound that bad for him. He doesn't have to do anything then.
Evan
So, speaking of the Hub. I'm not going to say that.
Mike
What?
Ryan
What? You can't blue ball us like that.
Evan
So we changed our WI fi, and one of the things, it shows web traffic to different websites. One of the top sites has been the Hub.
Mike
No, really?
Evan
Not top, but, like, it's identified.
Ben
Hold on. Does it say what they're, like, searching? Like, what kind of category? Or nothing.
Evan
It just shows traffic.
Ken
Hold on, hold on, hold on. For here or your house?
Evan
For here.
Ryan
For here.
Ken
Well, who. Who's the only one that lives here?
Ryan
Who's the one.
Ken
The only two that lives?
Ben
Evan and Mike.
Ryan
Or do we have a work jerker?
Ben
I don't think.
Ryan
Okay, pull it up.
Evan
There are three devices. Oh, 13 Pro Max, an 11 Pro Max, and a 14 Pro Max.
Ken
Neither of them are me. That's not.
Mike
I got.
Evan
Yeah.
Ryan
That'S funny. So how many visits?
Evan
It doesn't say that. It just says three clients have visited the Hub. No, it just says in the last 30 days.
Ryan
That is interesting.
Ken
Okay. And keeping tabs.
Mike
Who's got an 11 here?
Ben
Evan used to have an 11, and.
Mike
Now Evans, Evan is the 11 and the 13. And then one of you. You guys are the 14.
Ken
I don't have a 14. I have a 12.
Ryan
It could have been a visitor.
Mike
I have a 12. C.J. has a 14. Ken has a 14. Ryan has a 14.
Ken
Ken, did you just self Narciss?
Evan
Wasn't me. I don't do that here.
Ben
Oh, I do have a 14 y. I. I promise you. I don't have time to go on, I guess.
Mike
Well, we could have random people connecting to our WI fi and maybe Rich.
Ben
When he was here.
Mike
Could be.
Ken
Could have been Rich column. Hey, we just got a notification from our WI fi provider.
Mike
What do you want me to do about it?
Ken
Yeah, he'd probably just be like, oh.
Ben
Yeah, that was me.
Mike
I already left.
Ryan
I actually almost got in trouble at my old job at the car washing place because someone just during the night shift that I was the manager for was on Craigslist on the Men Seeking Women page and then on the hub and they were like, hey, you left a tab open on the computer for the hub. You can't be doing that at work.
Ken
How do you forgive. You got in trouble for that.
Ryan
I got pretty damn comfortable. I'm the guy who was the only one who was supposed to be using the computer.
Ken
The night manager.
Ryan
I was the night manager and I was like, listen, guys, I am not the most responsible human being in the world, but I am not work jerking or looking at the hub at the main desk on a computer.
Mike
Computer he's not even allowed to be on.
Ryan
No, I was allowed.
Ken
No, he.
Ryan
Because he.
Mike
Well, someone was looking up the hub on the.
Ryan
Technically. Yeah, somebody was. So that's what I was saying. It was somebody else. Nickel. Well, you're the only person.
Mike
Right.
Ben
And that.
Mike
That's what I mean. And whoever that somebody was wasn't even allowed to be on that computer, let alone doing that. Leaving the tab open. Yeah.
Ryan
So the. The morning manager came in, popped open the web browser, and the hub came up. So I think someone was trying to sabotage.
Ben
Could have been a prank.
Ryan
I think it was a prank. Yeah.
Ken
What did we. Who did that? Jake did that to Justin's computer in college at the college house. But some, like, gave him a very, very graphic. Justin came back to the house on Monday and. And had been on his computer all weekend. And he was like, my computer, I have so many viruses now.
Ryan
And he's work.
Ken
He's looking into like the. The back log of the computer and he's, oh, my God, this is so bad.
Ben
Did it. Did it fry the computer? I can't remember.
Ken
I think it did mess it up to the point where he had to do. Where he had to get a new one, and he blamed Jake for it. I think Jake chipped in for it. Really? I want to say something like this.
Ben
But didn't he chip in once he broke your computer then? There's a lot of broken computers there. Because then he had a fidget spinner and it hit your screen, right?
Ken
Yeah, I was. I was sitting there, I had my computer on my lap finishing up some.
Mike
Stuff for the video. Probably some. Some Instagram reels.
Ken
Yeah, yeah, it must have been. I just remember. And he was spinning. He was spinning it and he chucked it. He went to chuck it at my nuts and he missed my nuts and it hit my computer screen. But it might be about. And it shattered my computer screen.
Ryan
No way. Yeah.
Mike
Yeah.
Ken
That house did take down some computers. Yeah.
Ryan
I always remember Justin being like, no, Windows computers are the best. And he had like five computers he had to get in.
Ken
Yeah.
Ryan
Every year because the never worked. And Ken was still up until like a year ago using the MacBook Air. He got in like 2009.
Evan
Yeah, I had my MacBook Air from 2013. I just got rid of it last year.
Mike
That's crazy.
Ben
I think Windows you can do a lot more with. But yeah, they just go. They get old so quick and they slow down, like, you know, so quick again. Like the type of people to argue.
Ken
A Windows computer are the same people using Androids.
Ryan
Yeah.
Ken
Makes no sense.
Ryan
A losing battle.
Ken
It makes no sense. And besides, for the people that are like, oh, no, it only makes sense. This is. I feel like the ones that are using it are nerds, though. And they're like actually using it before they need it. Yeah, they're like using it for like all their software shit that they got to do. The rest of us normies, the guys that don't need that, Apple. Apple's do just fine.
Mike
I think it's way more bold to call out Windows users than it is Android users, but I still agree Windows users, you know, Android is just a given socially, they should be shunned. And then Windows, everyone's like, well, listen, clearly half the world uses Windows.
Ryan
I don't know. I think it's kind of like an American thing, though. I think other countries use different systems.
Ken
Yeah.
Ryan
Did you guys see. Well, actually, I sent the article in our group chat with all of our friends that not having a case on your phone is a status symbol now.
Ben
I agree.
Ryan
Because it's like you don't care about money so much. You don't even care if your phone breaks.
Ben
I agree. 100. It's a flex. Like if you see someone rolling around with no case and like, a brand new phone. You're like, God damn.
Ryan
Like, Mike, you aren't a flexer. Put that away.
Ken
Dude's already been flexing.
Mike
Yeah.
Ben
You know the problem with doing that, though? I honestly don't mind it.
Mike
I like it.
Ben
It feels cool.
Ryan
Whatever.
Ben
Yeah, it's definitely a flex. But, like, you set it down and your camera is just right. You're like. I feel like I'm just scratching up my camera lens.
Ryan
Like, I think they make.
Mike
Yeah.
Ryan
Cases that, like, literally just bump out around your camera.
Ken
They.
Mike
It's even just like. Yeah. Glass sticky.
Ben
Yeah, I had one of those and it up. It didn't take good pictures. It wouldn't focus.
Ken
Oh.
Ryan
Because it went over them.
Ben
Yeah.
Ryan
Yeah.
Ken
I feel like you want to mess with. I didn't even know that the back I did crackable. Oh, like, really?
Mike
No. So it goes on and off. Remember, for a while they'd go like, glass metal back. Glass metal back for iPhones. And now they're back to glass and you can crack it. And apparently the. The back is harder to fix than.
Ryan
The front because everything's glued to the back.
Mike
And I don't even know I did this with a case on it. I just, like, took my case off one day and the thing was in 4 billion pieces.
Ryan
Well, you are always leaving your phone in very precarious.
Mike
No, I. I'll take all the blame for that.
Evan
Like, wasn't it broken after the skid steer ran it over?
Mike
Yeah, this has been broken for a long time. The only downside to it is you can't go in the water. I'm a big advocate for. IPhones are pretty waterproof. You can go in the water with them. Like, I filmed the. When you sunk the snowmobile, I went down with my phone and just filmed the whole thing. It was pretty fun. But now I can't do that. But I set on the skid steer track, and then it got ran over by the skid steer and didn't break the screen. The front.
Ben
That's amazing.
Mike
It fell off the golf cart when Evan and I got stuck in the mud and I ran it over and did a burnout on the screen. And there's like, scratches.
Ben
Like, deliberately did not burn out.
Mike
Or we got back to the. The shop and I was like, where's my phone? And it was buried in the mud.
Ben
It's pretty unfortunate when you do the burnout run it over. Yeah, I also, after I ran over, I did a burnout.
Mike
Well, and yeah, because I was stuck in the mountain, it's like on the funk.
Ryan
That's how you got traction to get out.
Ken
Yeah. I think the most Mike putting his phone in weird places things ever was when we were filming a video with the Harley trike. And there's like this little pocket on the gas tank of the Harley trike. And Mike thought it would be a good idea to put his phone in that pocket, even though he wasn't riding it. I think you just saw, like a night nice spot to set your phone. Puts it in there, closes it down. You maybe like, chap it in there. Couldn't find it. Couldn't find his phone for days. Maybe not days, but a full day. Full day. And I was like, I'm pretty sure it's in the Harley trike that you just saw Evan sitting on. And you went, I'm gonna put my phone in there.
Mike
Well, it depends on Evan. Wrote it one day, and then I wrote another day. But I do remember that because it was like, literally weird that you said it like that, putting it in a chap. But yeah, it was like 11.
Ken
So that's why, like, you run your phone over with this kid steer. You do burnouts in a golf cart.
Mike
Put it down, Put it down.
Ken
In the strangest places.
Mike
And that does come from them being so damn big. I always like the max, but it's in my pocket. And it feels like you're carrying a small bracelet.
Ken
Really?
Ryan
Especially in the summer. You always are wearing pockets or something.
Ben
I mean, I never have that problem.
Mike
These shorts are, like, tiny.
Ryan
You could start wearing, like a little purse.
Ben
Itty bitty shorts.
Mike
Shorts, Yes. I got a little satchel.
Ken
Yeah. And I don't think that's the play.
Mike
No.
Ryan
I'm gonna be honest.
Ben
I do not think anyone looks with one of them things on.
Ken
One of my good friends, Jace, I talk about him on this podcast all the time because he's. He's such a. What's a nice way to put this? Anyway, yeah, he's got a satchel, and he's always wearing it. And every time he's wearing it, I'm always patent it to see if anything is in there. 90 of the time, nothing's in there. It's a style satchel. But you look kind of like a douche canoe. Some.
Ben
Sometimes the only time I think when it's like, it makes sense for them to wear it is like some of them big high rollers in Vegas, they. They wear it because then it's like they, like, they have it strapped and they have, like, probably 50 to 100 grand like in it. Because you can't put that in your pocket and you don't really have anywhere else to put it. So they put it there and it's on their body. But otherwise.
Ken
But it's like a Gucci one that's like.
Mike
Yeah.
Ben
Then it's a little lame I think when it's just a plain black one and you're like there's some purpose.
Ken
But yeah, otherwise most time there is purpose behind it, especially if you're like running or doing something. But like if you're just wearing it as a style piece, I think it.
Ben
Makes you look cool. Man. Purse, man.
Mike
I guess I'll clear the record then. I definitely wasn't wearing it as a style piece.
Ken
Oh, you haven't been because you have been wearing this. So I hate to kind of keep my out on this.
Mike
For most of the fourth of July weekend I have my wallet, my phone, my keys and then anything else I need in there. But some. Then I'm getting some flack for wearing it. Like they're like you're too pussy to wear it like a fanny pack.
Ryan
And it's actually not a satchel. We've been calling it a satchel, which is like a bag fanny pack, but it's more of like a fanny pack type of deal. But then you wear it over your shoulder, like across the waist.
Ben
Better. Yeah. I think a fanny pack's cooler. I think the, the fanny pack's cooler cuz you're not necessarily trying to be cool. It's just straight functionality and it's. It is like pretty known.
Mike
It's just how you wear the fanny pack though.
Ken
Oh like I guess I think it's.
Ben
Cool to wear it around your.
Ken
So how you been wearing it?
Mike
Cuz I've been wearing it around my shoulder cuz it's so much more secure. I should say if you wear it around your waist, you actually have to cinch it and tighten it up. But yeah, I bought like the $15 one on Amazon. It's all black. I really like it. And a lot of people are like, nice, you cop that Lulu bag. And I was like, no, I did not.
Ken
So when we were walking around. When I think of wearing a fanny pack around your waist though, I think of Frankie LePen wearing it with his big dump truck. Yeah, that was like part of his image. And his fanny pack on the front.
Mike
That's proper.
Ryan
Well, when I remember Mike, the first time I saw Mike wearing it, we were out on the boat for the 4th of July and one of like a Business guy around here was a giant house, was having a party. He had a band on his yard and a bunch of people over and he invited us. So, okay, let's go. We just left the sandbar and we're all like, in swimsuits and stuff like that. And so we're going to go to this party and as we're driving up in the boat full of people and all that, we look, you know, there's other boats there and there's a whole yard full of people and they're all wearing like button up T shirts, you know, like other businessmen and families. A lot of Tommy Bahama type of stuff going on there. And so we pull up on the boat and we're like, guys, I don't know if this is our, our scene today. And so we're hanging out there and we look up in the yard and we go, oh, well, there's that guy dressed, you know, pretty casual. And it's Mike strutting through the yard, drink in hand with his satchel fanny pack over his shoulder.
Mike
And then that was the same party that I like, took my shirt off because it was 90 and super hot. And I, like, went inside and everyone looked at me like, why does he have his shirt off? I'm like, well, we're at a pool, lake, beach, fun fourth of July party.
Ryan
Who was in the pool?
Mike
Not the case. Just a bunch of kids and their moms.
Ken
I did get a kid. I never rolling up. Mike was like, honestly representing. You looked dapper. You were dressed up, you looked good. And I guess I had. You really were representing. You were holding it down. And I was like, this is not Ryan. We got to turn around here. We got to turn around. Our drunk asses walking into this wouldn't have been good.
Ryan
We weren't doing any positives.
Mike
It would have been fun, I'll tell you that much. It was just talking to Sydney about this. She sends me a picture that I just look like a doofin. And she's like, but it's funny. It's funny. And then she goes, you never did claim to have style. And I'm like, I never did. I never claimed to be anywhere in near knowing what I'm doing in the fashion game.
Ken
Yeah, I think the thing about you though, Mike, is like, you really can just wear anything because since the day I met you, you have been wearing anything. You're walking down the street and you see a, like a caution cone, you go, hey, that'd be a good hat. You wear it for the rest of the day. Nobody even asks you why. Yeah, nobody ask you why. That's true.
Ben
Like, you just like, no one even thinks anything of it.
Mike
If I can put on the most fun, wild outfit, it's just like, huh, nice one. That's. I like that one. And it's nothing too out of the ordinary. And then that honestly, wearing a ref shirt said, yeah, like when I wore the ref shirt, like, no one asked anything. They're just like, nice. You're wearing a striped shirt.
Ken
I just.
Ben
Yeah, I didn't think twice.
Ryan
I think there's a little beauty in that, you know, that some people can just pull something off.
Mike
And it's not even necessarily about that. It's more about one less thing to think about, you know, what am I going to wear today? And then, you know, my ref jersey.
Ken
Yeah.
Mike
You know, grabbing a shirt, grabbing shorts. Even if they're like, sometimes, even if it's just like stuff that I don't. Don't find comfortable to wear, I'm like, well, whatever. It's on my, on me now.
Ken
I would think of it like the polar opposite of if I put on this ridiculous outfit. I'd be thinking about it all day of like, oh, I look so dumb right now. Like, should I be going to this place wearing what I'm wearing right now, like a, like a train conductor uniform? Should I be going to get dinner with my girlfriend wearing this?
Mike
And I think so. That's normal. Like, that's good. That's normal to think about that.
Ken
But I'm glad he has a conductor uniform that he'll just wear on Tuesday.
Mike
I'll wear, I'll wear it for like next video. Next podcast, actually. But then what's, what's sucky is that when you're trying to look cool or you're trying to wear something that you are like, thinking proud of, but also equally as much thinking about hoping people like it. That's actually the pickle that you don't want to.
Ken
If you care. Yeah.
Ben
People.
Mike
Yeah, it's. Again, it's. It's pretty human to not want to. Just want to like, blend in slightly. Given all the situations that we get put in day to day.
Ben
I think if you wear it with confidence, you can wear anything. Yeah, that's the thing. Like, if you're kind of timid and you're there, people can almost tell and then they're like, oh, he feels uncomfortable. But you walk into a place wearing some freaking crazy outfit and you're wearing with confidence and you're not even like acting any different. People be like, damn, he's cool.
Mike
Yeah.
Ryan
I have a linen shirt. I really want to bust out. Too scared, though.
Mike
Still having.
Ben
You're scared. Probably don't even do it right.
Ryan
Well, just. I mean, you got to get out of your comfort zone. I'm waiting for a shore. I'm now gonna put it on. I'm gonna look fancy. I was talking to this guy. I saw him wearing a linen shirt, and I go, that. That looks really nice. I have one. I just get away. He goes, you gotta get a good steam steamer.
Ben
You have a lot of outfits.
Ryan
You think?
Ben
Yeah, I'd say so. Like, I. I just. The only thing I got in my closet is just seaboys, TV shirts. You got, like, nice outfits.
Ryan
Yeah, I mean, I guess.
Ben
Yeah, you got.
Mike
I think you got a solid amount of. Just like, that color is nice. Like, some. It's honestly a lot.
Ben
Are you the one doing the shopping on this, or is it a laundry? Because I didn't find it as a laundry.
Ryan
I do. I don't. I have, like, my. Oh, Mike. I. I don't have, like, things that I venture too far out of, but, like. Yeah, see me in, like, a pink Levi shirt.
Mike
My favorite thing is that you've always done that, Ryan, where you're like, you'll have like, once a year. Yeah. You go to a store and you just come home with, like, four solid colored, like, crew neck or sweatshirts. And this is such the vibe. I think, that you do have most outfits.
Ryan
Thanks, Alice.
Mike
Geez. I've always, like.
Ken
You know what I could see you wearing, Mike?
Mike
What?
Ken
You guys know that music video with Lil Pump and Kanye West? You said, oh, my God, he wears.
Ryan
The fucking big block.
Ken
Pop that up. I could see Mike wearing that.
Ryan
Mm.
Ken
But just, like, not even saying anything.
Ben
You just walk, see, on the couch.
Mike
Even if I made it half the size of what they were in the.
Ryan
Video, you should just start wearing, like, Halloween costumes just, like, during the day.
Mike
Yeah.
Ken
I mean.
Mike
Yeah.
Ken
Push it too far. I mean, true. Yeah.
Ryan
The train conductor and your Amish outfit that you bought in Vegas.
Ben
Yeah.
Ken
Speaking of Vegas, did you guys see the spear? That's. That's done.
Mike
So cool.
Ben
No, I haven't. It's basically like we went past when they were building it. Right. It's just a circle. Yeah.
Ken
Yeah, but it's like a tv. It's like the whole thing is TV inside and outside, so I didn't know.
Ben
They were doing that.
Ken
They can, like. They can make it look like the Earth or the moon.
Mike
The first thing that you show can.
Ben
Oh, on the outside. I thought you were saying the inside. No, both.
Ken
Both. The inside looks like that too.
Ryan
Like, look how sick that looks. That doesn't even look real.
Ben
They built that quick when we were there in November.
Ryan
They were.
Ken
I wouldn't say quick. It took a really long time.
Ben
Oh, really?
Ken
Yeah.
Ben
It didn't look like it's half even close to halfway done last November.
Evan
They started that in like 20, 19 or 20.
Ken
That was actually quicker still.
Mike
A couple years co.
Ben
So what's inside there?
Evan
All screen. Like it's a. Like a.
Ben
It's just like a tourist.
Evan
No, it's like a theater.
Ryan
Like, it's a concert venue type of deal. But on the inside, it's got some like 5D experience. Supposed to be like the most crazy place to go to a show. So pull up the eyeball one. I want to see the eyeball.
Ben
Wow. It's kind of creepy.
Ryan
Can you imagine just like looking out and seeing that out of your room.
Ken
Like being super high, looking out your. Your window of the hotel?
Ryan
Yeah, of course. And it would be perfect because Ken only gets himself the strip view hotel room. So we will be able to look back off the strip and see that.
Mike
Ken does get himself the strip view.
Ryan
Hacked and plays a full B movie. Really?
Ben
I don't know about the full B movie. That's what they decided to put on. That's just.
Ken
How do you know being hacked?
Mike
Yeah, that's me. Meme hack for sure.
Ken
No, they did Barry right there.
Ben
They did Barry.
Ken
Now that's a.
Ben
That's a funny hack.
Ken
I don't know if they actually did, but I love that.
Evan
Looks like it's Photoshop.
Ken
Fuck. I was. I. I just saw that. I didn't even read into it because that is something that a hacker would do it. Same thing with the B movie. Yeah, like they would do something that's like such a meme.
Mike
Well, what I love about Barry is that if there's any image to ever be overlaid upon anything for whatever reason or any link, it's Barry.
Ben
Yeah, Barry, man. That thing was viral back during, like, the lockdown of COVID He's.
Mike
Well, I mean, even before and he's still being used. It's like.
Ben
So do you guys know the backstory on Barry?
Mike
What? It's.
Ben
Yeah, there's like a bad fortunate. So he was just a regular guy. He wasn't like a porn star or anything like that. And some photographer or something wanted to take some pics of him, but he was hard up for cash and he did it. So that's behind the.
Ken
Got a glimpse in the. In the locker room or.
Ben
I'm not entirely sure why, but yeah, so they went and, like, he went and did the pictures, and I don't think they ever surfaced until after his death. So he passed away and then they surfaced. Vice did a documentary on it and. Or like, a short video. And yeah, they, like, interviewed his family and all this. He never told anyone or anything like.
Ken
That, so basically, yes.
Ben
Well, I'm sure they must have known, but I'm not sure if it's real.
Ryan
He knows when you have a big.
Ben
I can't remember, you'd have to go back and watch it. But, like, yeah, it's kind of an interesting story. It's kind of a sad story, you know?
Mike
I agree. Well, the fact that he's passed is the most sad about it. But, yeah, the fact that that was never his goal. Like, everyone pictures him as this.
Ben
You'd have thought he was, like, a porn star.
Mike
Dude, that's just.
Ken
For some reason, I thought that it was maybe Photoshopped.
Ben
Yeah.
Ryan
Ken, Google that Barry's lower unit is real.
Ken
Might be fucked up, saying, insensitive, but you know how, like, larger dogs have a shorter lifespan.
Ben
Yeah.
Ken
Because of the issues of being bigger. Like that.
Ryan
Yeah.
Ben
I don't know why he passed away. No, I can't remember.
Ryan
Did he die of a big dick?
Ken
I don't know.
Ryan
Dude, thank goodness you're gonna have such a long, healthy life.
Ken
He had a boner.
Ben
All the blood rushed to his dick, and he.
Evan
The name is not Barrywood. It is Warty Jorbett, and He died in 2016.
Ken
All I gotta say is I can truly think of so many worse photos or reasons to go viral.
Ben
Yeah, I'd agree.
Ryan
Yeah, true. If I was pretty confident I was going famous for my lower unit being giant, I'd be pretty happy.
Evan
Last. Last line of this article, FYI, his dong is Photoshopped.
Ryan
Oh, it is? Well, they say in Photoshop it's smaller. That would really suck.
Ben
That thing wouldn't even be usable, dude.
Ryan
Isn't it?
Ben
I don't think so, but maybe it would be.
Ryan
What was his photo name? It was Barry Wood, but his real name was something complex.
Evan
Wardy Jor Betts the Third.
Ryan
See, that's just not a name that goes popular. Alondra and I were talking about this yesterday. Tony Hawk. Sick name. Tom.
Mike
And that one's real. Those are real names.
Ken
Tiger Woods.
Ryan
Tiger Woods.
Ken
That's a sick name.
Ryan
Those are people who go famous because they Just their name is too good. Honestly.
Ken
Honestly, I feel like you were Ryan.
Ben
Yeah, Ryan.
Ryan
I works not a famous name.
Ben
Micah Salmon, Ben, Rob.
Ken
Not that cool.
Ryan
No. Ben Roth's okay. Dude.
Ben
Evan, bro.
Ryan
Evan, chef. That's a good one.
Ben
You don't think C.J. lotzer is cool?
Ryan
It's cool, but not like it's literally.
Ken
Just like two letters put together.
Mike
I'm actually, I've, I've always really liked the, you know the nickname Mike because one syllable, one.
Ken
Because you can roll low key with it. Mike. No, I'm just being the sickest kid on the blog with Micah Sandman. Yeah.
Ben
When he's just trying to fit in.
Ryan
No, well, I mean like when he's a, A list celebrity famous, someone walks up. Micah Sandman. Nice to meet. Please, please, please call me Mike.
Mike
Call me Mike. But also I think Mike Sandman sounds weird. But yeah, I mean, well, also like Ryan's got a two syllable name, but it's very easy to say. Cj Two syllable. Still very easy to say. Ben. That's really easy to say.
Ryan
You need to have like a yellable name.
Ben
So what are you, what are you going.
Mike
I guess what I'm going for is like having a one syllable first name. Whether it's a nickname or real name, that helps to kind of going along of just having a famous name. It helps, helps people.
Ryan
Or what's like a bad name? Who? Someone.
Ken
I feel like. Haven't we talked about this on the pod?
Ryan
Did we?
Ken
Bad names. Yeah.
Ben
Oh yeah. No, we were talking about names like someone maybe Gladys.
Ken
Yeah.
Mike
Who's someone that's famous that just has a really difficult name to say.
Ryan
I feel like they've all rebranded, you know, like if you've got a weird name to say. Selena Gomez. That's a great name.
Mike
I wonder if like regular celebrities are jealous of rappers because they just get to stack on names and then they add yay. And then like Lil Wayne, Wheezy and Drake and Drizzy.
Ben
Who's to say you can't do that? Mike.
Mike
Right, Exactly. That's what I'm thinking.
Ben
Little spark plug.
Ken
Little zip tie.
Mike
Make it longer.
Ben
Yeah. Big Wrench.
Mike
I rolled with Little Zip.
Ben
Little Wrench. Lil Wrench. Don't even do little.
Mike
No, to be honest, I don't think, I don't think we talked about this again on nicknames. But dude, Evan like religiously calls me Pocket Nuts. I know you guys do too, but every day he's like, look who it is. Old Pocket Nuts. I got that from when I'm Taking apart stuff. I just put the nuts and bolts in my pockets and can't find something.
Ken
Can't find something.
Ryan
Check Mike's pockets and if it's not there, check Ken's frunk.
Mike
True.
Evan
That only happened twice.
Ken
Yeah, but two big ones. The two times that it did happen, we had a camera bag full of stuff. Couldn't find it for literally three months. Three months. We thought it was for sure stolen. Well, sure enough. Nope. Ken just put it in the front of his Tesla and didn't check it for three months.
Evan
It's tough to close, so just don't put anything up there.
Ken
Well, Mike is. Mike's. Mike fits in there though.
Evan
Mike does fit in there.
Mike
Yeah. Can he just. His car could just damn near have just a driver's seat.
Evan
Absolutely.
Mike
That's all I need that.
Ryan
Then Elon wouldn't have to drive us around.
Ken
You should get one of those one seater cars, Ken.
Evan
I don't take all the other seats.
Ken
Yeah, that's what I could picture. Just like a little glass.
Evan
It's like a McLaren little glass box.
Ken
I'd see it. So, yeah, I feel like. I feel like our destructiveness kind of got carried away the other day when the Smart car came off of the van.
Mike
Oh, that's when you thought. That's when you thought.
Ken
No, that was just like the point of solidified wasteful recklessness. Not, not that it wasn't entertaining. It was great. But after that I was like, damn. Kind of just ruined this Smart car for nothing.
Ryan
You've been saying that.
Ken
Siege.
Ben
Why. Why is it always after it happens, you guys go, you just say exactly what I said.
Ken
I think cuz you, you don't come in with a good enough reason like for any.
Ben
I just said. I mean it's still a great, pretty good Smart crown. See why we got a ruin. Is it really worth Just the short term.
Ken
Yeah, but follow that up with a reason to not ruin it. Just not just because you think.
Ben
I mean, eventually. Well then it's like you guys are already saying it right after. It's just weird.
Ryan
Don't.
Mike
Hey, don't pull me in with that. I enjoyed the heck out of that.
Ben
I mean, yeah, it was cool.
Mike
And that was tough because then you find you do a vice versa. And. And you guys were pretty lit up. Like when the Subarus got wrecked, there was. I mean we, we were trying to be optimistic, but I was having difficulty doing that. I was like, oh, these WXS just got toasted in like an hour. And I was struggling to cope with that and the Smart car didn't bother me at all.
Ryan
Yeah, that was.
Ken
Marker was clapped. Honestly if you've looked. I mean the windows have been open. Were you gonna be.
Mike
You know, obviously we.
Ben
It was pretty clapped on.
Mike
That's kind of what I was thinking. Like if I was the one to have to fix it, I.
Ben
And there's mice would have rather dumped.
Ryan
I didn't realize. I mean I was there a lot of the time I was chasing Evan around so I couldn't hear. But I didn't realize Evan really didn't let off the rev limiter the whole time. It was pretty.
Ben
He was just first gear pin the whole time. No wonder fucking blew up.
Mike
So we've done about the same thing in his Chevy. Maybe not for quite as long, but like he goes out to the field and he's showing me videos of his buddies back home that no joke to the rev limiter for minutes.
Ryan
Yeah.
Mike
So it's like you have. That doesn't blow up and then you have a Subaru that you put to the floor for give or take five minutes around the couple laps that he did and it blows up.
Ryan
Those Subarus are just babies.
Ben
They're also. Yeah, I mean they blow up under daily driving.
Ryan
It's.
Mike
This has completely changed my outlook. They're. They're babies.
Ken
You know, Evan and his destructiveness.
Ben
It's great.
Ryan
It's.
Ken
We joke about it because I mean it is adding up to be a hefty bill every single week.
Ben
But.
Ken
But it's great content and it's like Evan's almost like gotten to the point where his dad is super rich and he doesn't care about the financial consequences of his actions.
Ryan
Okay.
Ken
And that's just like his reasoning for doing what he does and breaking the.
Ben
Things because like he doesn't have to deal with it. He has no repercussions.
Evan
Yeah.
Ben
He doesn't have to fix it, doesn't have to pay for it. He just walks away.
Ken
Which I hold the thing back in any other situation is just non existent besides for just a kid that's got a super rich dad.
Ben
We've created a monster is what you're saying.
Mike
Well, when Ben was. It is the opposite of how he grew up. I mean that's truly the opposite.
Ryan
So we fucked up our first kid.
Mike
Yeah.
Ryan
It's to be expected.
Mike
I love that.
Ryan
I don't want, I don't want to get too hard on him because he. The way when he talked to me, he's like listen, I came out to try to make the best video I could.
Ben
He did a good job.
Ryan
Granted. Could have maybe let off the rev limiter a little bit. It's okay. Learning lesson, you know, you just maybe. Maybe dial it back just a smidgen. Just a smidgen.
Ken
Yeah.
Ben
I'm not mad at all about the jump or any of it.
Ryan
Yeah, I don't want that to get misconstrued.
Ben
That is a very good point. I mean, what'd you expect was going to happen? Like, you could have let off the rev limiter. Like, I understand, like, you jump a Subaru, you're going to break the bumpers and whatever. That's fine. But like, yeah, maybe could have just.
Ryan
I think he was spoiled with those R6s. They just put up to a lot of abuse. The only thing that can handle Evans.
Mike
Truly, like, this just goes to show how good our sixes are because, like, we're seeing it live. Like, they hold up. These don't.
Ken
Well, guys, we're on our fourth R6.
Ben
True.
Mike
But yeah, different for different reasons though, you know, like, and I think the.
Ryan
Snow bike would have been fine if we'd actually put an air filter on it and not let it sit.
Mike
Yeah, yeah.
Ryan
Vertical.
Mike
That would maybe the first one again was. Was us and we jumped that one.
Ryan
And it's still alive. It's still in my four wheel.
Mike
Yeah. So those, those go good. But Yeah, I don't want to be too hard on him either.
Ryan
He's a good kid.
Ken
Good kid behind her, just doing his job.
Ryan
Does ever have like a dream that feels real or you feel like you've like, relived it?
Mike
Sure.
Ryan
Like, yeah, like a deja vu type of deal. Yeah, let's. Let's go in the past tense where you have a dream that feels real. Are you ever worried about it happening? Are you ever, like, expect it to come true in life?
Ken
Well, I guess I don't know if I'd think of it like that, but every time that I do have like a deja vu moment, I'm always trying to think, okay, what happens next? Why. Why am I. Why am I having this moment?
Ryan
Yeah.
Ken
Like, is this coming to me or did I have this in a dream for a reason?
Mike
Since it's known as a moment that's. That's like, interesting that you're like thinking of the next thing because technically it is just a moment. The next thing that happens after that probably isn't something that's happened to you before also.
Ryan
So the reason I bring it up is I lost my garage door opener, but I'M able to open it with an app on the phone.
Ken
You're able to text Mike, and he'll open.
Ryan
He'll open up the garage door.
Ben
Yeah.
Ken
And he goes, well, my car is in your spot.
Mike
I'll come down there.
Ryan
So anyway, I had a dream where I was running from the police, and I used. I remember in the thing using my app to open the door and put my car in the garage and close it. They're glass garage doors. I can't hide. But anyway, I remember doing that in my dream. And then this last week, I remembered that I could download the app and open up the garage door, and I remembered that dream, and I deleted the app up on my phone because I didn't want it to, like, I didn't want to connect the dots. I didn't want to do the butterfly effect things to make that happen. So I deleted that. I know I have to. What? No, yeah.
Ken
Don't.
Ben
Yeah.
Ryan
I would never. Exactly. Now I have to get out of my truck every day and open up the garage door because I'm like, I'm not risking it.
Ken
So you are a little.
Ben
Holy shit.
Ryan
I'm superstitious.
Evan
Yeah.
Ben
Very superstitious.
Mike
Are you?
Ryan
Yeah, I'd say so, I guess. In what context you think?
Ken
I guess that, like, the whole.
Mike
I don't want that bad juju. I don't want that. I don't want the karma, you know, just lightly. Yeah. Thinking about it.
Ryan
Yeah, I'd say so. I sometimes do things like. Let's say I, like, throw something in the garbage can and it misses, and then I, like, go back and do it the right way because I don't want, like, the bad, bad something.
Mike
It's not some obsessive compulsive disorder.
Ryan
Yeah, no, it could be OCD for sure. If I short something, like, I don't do something right. I'll try to go back and do it right. Like that so it, like, doesn't affect me later.
Mike
Sounds like something.
Ryan
I always do that. Like, you know, you. You rush for five minutes, and it costs you 10 minutes, you know?
Mike
Yep. I wouldn't consider myself OCD, but just weird things. Like, if I'm drinking out of the faucet, I drink out of the faucet. Every time I brush my teeth, I have to take 10 drinks. I don't.
Ryan
Oh, no, that's.
Mike
But, yeah, I know. That's weird. Yeah. I count, like, that's.
Ken
That's. I think that is, like.
Mike
That's, like, ocd. Yeah.
Ken
To a T. Yeah.
Mike
And like, a few other 10 drinks. You count 10 drinks almost all the time. Again, I'm not so OCD that if I don't, like, you know, I believe.
Ben
That you would be the one to do that. You seem like you just so really nilly.
Evan
Why are you drinking out of the faucet?
Ken
Yeah, I think this kind of got over.
Ben
Why are you. Why aren't you drinking boss water?
Ryan
Yeah, why aren't you drinking from the Brita dude?
Mike
Literally coming from Ben, who literally has glass bottles of Voss water at his house.
Ken
Really?
Mike
No, honestly, he refills them. Sorry I incriminated. All right. I will stand sturdy on that. Drinking on the faucet ain't that crazy?
Ryan
It depends.
Ken
Don't be drinking out of the faucet. Don't be drinking out of the faucet.
Ben
Here.
Mike
It's funny.
Ryan
I figured it out. The water softener was turned off.
Mike
It's funny because I could tell.
Ken
Why? Why do you do that?
Mike
I don't know.
Ken
Ten.
Ryan
Have you?
Ken
Always.
Mike
And another one again, there's only a few. And that's why it's weird, because you'd think you'd have a whole bunch if this is the case. When I cut my fingernails, I have to cut my right thumb, then my whole left hand, then go back to my why again. I don't do that every time.
Ryan
But you're learning new things about you today. And you're weird.
Mike
Yeah, it's like, very OC.
Ken
Picture Mike doing that. We're in a train conductor with a construction hat on where I used to be.
Ben
Some similar to that when I just had to, like, put my left skate on before my right or like, whatever. But, like, I don't know if that was just more so I was nervous about, like. But I think.
Ryan
I don't know.
Mike
I think the weirder thing maybe it's like, then you'd expect if I didn't do it that way, you'd be like, I didn't like that. It doesn't really bother me. It's like, well, it is what it is. But I have a routine.
Ken
What contact do you put in first?
Ben
I always go.
Ken
Yeah, I would go left and right.
Mike
Okay, that's interesting.
Ken
So I remember when I did that in front of you, you were like, you just put your left contact in first. And I was like, I don't know. Sometimes I do.
Ryan
Surprise.
Ken
I do.
Mike
Right.
Ben
What are you worried is going to happen if you don't take 10 drinks of water?
Mike
Literally nothing, I think.
Ben
So why do you?
Mike
10 is just a good goal.
Ben
It's I don't know if that's ocd. I think OCD is when you're like, you have to touch the doorknob 10 times to make sure because you're worried that if you don't, then something bad's going to happen.
Ken
Yeah.
Mike
It's like a little bit more, I guess, like mentally restricting. Yeah. But like, it's more like. Yeah. If I'm going to go down for some push ups. 20.
Ben
Couldn'T do 25. You're like, I stop at 20.
Mike
There has to be a minimum.
Ben
Oh.
Mike
Every time. Like, if I got down and did 10, I guess I would be like.
Ryan
Someone'S like, drop and give me 15. Mike's like, no, please make it 20.
Ken
So do you do that because you're like, if I don't drink 10 gulps and I won't be hydrated.
Mike
Yeah. Kind of how I think about it.
Ryan
Interesting.
Ken
Trying to think of I do it.
Mike
Yeah. Again, it's not like, don't think about it like if you start revealing this stuff, like your. Your ocd, but there's just some routines that you have of doing something, some weird way.
Ken
Oh, when I get, when I get out of the shower, I have the exact wipe down, like long as I can remember.
Ryan
Yeah.
Ken
Like the most efficient. Really.
Mike
Well, I don't know if you can.
Ken
Call it the bottom, bottom, torso, back, boom, leg, leg.
Mike
That's how everyone does it.
Ryan
When you do your balls in that.
Mike
Order, leave them sloppy.
Ryan
This is way better.
Ken
There's a glitch in the matrix.
Mike
That's so funny. Yeah, I have like a weird, like, it's like end of towel hair, other end of towel hair, toss it up in the air, grab the other end of towel hair.
Ken
It's like you're making like a. Like a pizza.
Ryan
Yeah.
Mike
It's so fun.
Ken
You're tossing it in the air, huh?
Mike
Yeah.
Ken
You gotta be getting water every show.
Mike
You guys sometimes wet.
Ken
No, I swear. People that don't use a towel at least a little bit in the shower before they hop out and just get water everywhere.
Mike
Criminal.
Ken
It's like a serial killer characteristic.
Ryan
Do you, unlike OCD things you got ever have to have like your temperature at the right setting in your car?
Ken
No.
Ben
I used to be like, I needed like, I needed like even numbers.
Ken
Yeah.
Ryan
At a certain point I was just going, 69.
Evan
That's my happy.
Ryan
It's either low.
Ben
Yeah.
Ryan
69.
Ben
Yeah.
Ryan
Or like 75.
Mike
69 is absolutely the best temperature to have your car.
Ryan
Yeah.
Mike
Like app.
Ben
Why?
Ken
Yeah, I mean, if you're saying that you might as well just hit auto?
Ryan
I don't think.
Mike
I don't do that.
Ryan
Not an auto.
Mike
And Ken.
Ken
Ken's an auto guy.
Ryan
But the problem with putting it in auto is auto is one button, and it's like seven. To get it out of auto, you got to turn the temperature, Turn down the fan and set it to the right thing.
Evan
Or you just with the temperature and then it does it. I want it colder. I just turn the temperature down. I want it warmer. Just turn the temperature.
Ryan
But I want the. I want the air blowing at me at a. I want it from the right vents.
Evan
Ken, sometimes you just can't care about it. Just once you get over that, auto's perfect.
Mike
No, that is.
Ken
You're probably right there.
Ryan
You're probably right.
Ken
Ken, you are such a Tesla owner by just, like, trusting the process. The process and the Elon and the electronic gods. You have more faith in them than.
Ben
You do with your own automated stuff.
Evan
I either have my car at 70, low or high. No, there's nothing else between that.
Ken
Ken, do you like your Ford Bronco Raptor? I don't think we've talked about that yet.
Evan
I like it, but there's certain things where it's like, I got the carbon fiber package and I. It's thirteen hundred dollars for, like a piece of carbon fiber on the shift knob and two small ones. It was like, now that I see it, I was like, this is pointless.
Ben
Carbon fiber is not cheap, man.
Evan
Yeah, yeah, but it's like the amount of carbon fiber.
Ryan
When you drop it later, you're gonna appreciate that lightness.
Evan
You can barely see it, you know, out of.
Ryan
When you're.
Ken
Things that you were. You could say that is like, gotta be the last thing that I thought that you were gonna nitpick.
Ryan
How do you appreciate. Do you like having more power?
Evan
It's still not fast. It's got more. It's faster, but it's not fast.
Ryan
Have you ever driven anything that you think is fast since you got your Tesla? No.
Ken
Have you ever been satisfied with something that you've bought?
Evan
Probably the first one, and then the first one. First Bronco I had, and then the Raptors came out and was like, anything.
Mike
He bought American flag onesie once. I'm pretty sure he was pretty satisfied by that.
Evan
Well, it's like, how long are you satisfied with it for? You might be satisfied for six months and then just gets old. And then you're like, I guess I wasn't satisfying anymore.
Ken
Well, I guess I was just asking off of the intent.
Ben
This is why Ken doesn't have a girlfriend.
Ryan
I feel like something that I've noticed, Ken, is maybe your way of not trying to sound like you're bragging when someone goes like, do you love your Bronco Raptor? That's so amazing. And you don't want to be like, yeah, it's just the most amazing thing ever. You go, yeah, I like it. But there's. You can't see out of the corner or something like that. It's your way of making it sound like you're not. Not trying to brag, maybe. I don't know. It's my licensed therapeutic assessment.
Evan
I could.
Ryan
I could get behind that, you know, I think, oh, yeah, it's great. But, you know, there is this thing.
Mike
To not just be like, so let's do a little more praise to it. And then rip the carbon fiber.
Evan
It's definitely got, like. I love the exhaust because it can be quiet or loud.
Mike
Oh, I didn't know that.
Evan
Yeah, no, it's got, like, the exhaust and just, like, the leather on the steering wheel is so much nicer than the other one.
Ryan
I think it's a cool rig. Ken, I think you look good driving.
Mike
Well, I can just put new wheels on it, and I'm sure you guys will see that at some point. Who maybe even pop a picture up there.
Ryan
Hot boy.
Mike
It looks good. He got the same wheels that Ben got on his Corvette and CJ got on his gtr.
Ryan
There's no originality anymore, but they look so good.
Evan
Ben. Ben picked a great wheel, and now they make it for, like, six lugs.
Mike
Now. They're the precedent.
Ken
Yeah, it does look sharp. I don't know if I would have gone quite that hot. Boy, just being that you keep in.
Mike
Mind his are the same size wheels that are on my Bronco.
Ken
No, I know, but I would be more worried about, like, what you're gonna do in the Bronco. And now you got.
Ryan
When you jump.
Evan
I mean, I was considering getting 22s, but I stuck with the 20s.
Mike
Oh, really?
Ryan
And 22s would have been real hot boy.
Mike
Yeah, big time.
Ryan
I feel like I was looking for wheels for my truck. There just is not that many options, and I wanted to give the exact. Well, there's a million options, but there's not that many that look good.
Ben
I'd agree with that.
Mike
You know, I actually kind of also agree with that, but it's like, there's not many that many that look good, and then there's not that many that you could know. If they would look good.
Ryan
That's also true.
Mike
And then there's like five or six that you pick from that. You're like, I know these will look good.
Ryan
I actually found some wheels I really liked, but they were xds and I thought it was just like. I was like, I can't be rolling around on xd. They look good.
Mike
Even if they completely rebranded, you'd have a tough time.
Ryan
I know this is a big fat XD in the middle.
Evan
I was like, you gotta wonder who actually buys some of these.
Ryan
A lot of people.
Mike
More people than buy. I swear, more people buy, like, what were they thinking type wheels than cool wheels for their truck.
Ryan
That is.
Ben
Well, I think it's tough to, like, fit them. That's the hardest part. Like, that's. Realistically what makes the biggest impact is like, if it's sized right. You know, like if it's a car and you're trying to go with that low look, it needs to be like, flush with the fenders, but not too far out or too far in.
Mike
Yeah.
Ben
And like, obviously with truck, the higher you lift it, the more they have to go out in order for it to look right.
Mike
Yeah.
Ben
So I'd say, like, that that's the more important thing than the actual face of the wheel.
Ken
Do you think most people go to the dealership and ask for like.
Ryan
Yeah, I would say so.
Ken
Like, that's the Randy.
Ryan
Yeah, the Randy method.
Ken
Right.
Ryan
Smaller wheels. He has smaller tires on his truck than come stock.
Mike
Oh, tires. I'm like, well, so what's more. But how'd you end up with that?
Ryan
Yeah, he's like, my speedometer is really slow. Like, it doesn't. And I was like, what the hell?
Ben
And I started looking at less miles on it, though.
Ryan
Stock versus his is. It goes from like a 355 to a 325.
Ken
See, when. When state troopers are pulling people over for having, you know, too big of wheels, I think they should just switch their mindset and the laws and pull people over that have too smaller wheels on their truck and fix it for them.
Ben
When we did the tiny wheels on tiny, we probably could have gotten pulled over for that. I'm sure they would have been like that. That's a safety hazard.
Mike
Yeah, well, the vehicle is a safety. Even besides it breaking. The whole safety hazard of that was that they were so small that the top speed of it was like 40.
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah.
Ben
And it blew the drive shaft.
Mike
Yeah.
Ryan
Big time classic.
Ken
You guys got anything?
Ben
Any good topics? That's what we need. There's an otter in Santa Santa Cruz.
Ryan
That'S been hassling surfers and stealing their surfboards. A sea otter hassling surfers.
Ken
This is a 5 year old female southern sea otter was first seen hijacking surfboards in Santa Cruz last September. Officials successfully drove the otter away from the area. She has since returned.
Ben
It just steals surfboards.
Ryan
I really want you to pull up a picture and it's that otter or whatever. Riding, riding the surfboard. I will not be satisfied until then. No way.
Ken
It is riding the surfboard.
Mike
Oh, wow.
Ben
It actually surfs too.
Ryan
No way. An aggressive sea otter in California is hassling locals by riding boards she stole from the surfers in the lineup.
Ken
No way.
Mike
How? I'm just wondering. Yeah, like how she stole them. Does she steal them on the water and then hop on or does she steal them like off the beach?
Ryan
At times she's chewed on the boards or for. Or force surfers to surrender their boards altogether.
Ken
Oh, man, what a bully. Do you think this sea otter knows like what they're doing? Look at that.
Mike
And the guy's like, he's like kind of fighting it.
Ben
Oh, wow. Yeah, I wouldn't want to look at that.
Ken
Dude.
Ryan
He hopped right up.
Ben
If he bites you or some, smack.
Mike
Him on the top of the head.
Ben
Yeah, but you're in the water with it. You're just totally out of your element.
Ryan
Yeah, I mean that's, that's the sea otters element. I love the caption. This was in a very aggressive interaction and scary to watch.
Evan
Dude, look at that little not letting go.
Ben
I would support the fucking board.
Ryan
Yeah, Flip them back over, let him get a wave.
Mike
Surfboards ain't cheap these days.
Ben
I don't blame.
Ryan
I'd be.
Ben
Oh, wow, he's just chewing up.
Ryan
So do you think he's got like beef with surfers or you think he like.
Mike
Yeah.
Ryan
Auditioned for Surf's up and didn't get the part?
Mike
Yeah, it's something like.
Ben
That wasn't a penguin, dude.
Mike
Like, because he could just go and bite the guy if he wanted to. But no.
Ryan
Yeah. He's after the board.
Ken
Yeah.
Ryan
Yeah. Do you think it. Do you think it's a sea otter that really likes surfing or do you think he's against surfing?
Ken
That's what I'm wondering, Ryan.
Mike
I think he's against surfing.
Ryan
Really?
Mike
Yeah.
Ryan
Damn.
Mike
Honestly.
Ken
And I.
Mike
If he had middle fingers, they'd be up while he's on the board.
Ryan
But I mean, there was the orcas that have been attacking boats. The ocean's fighting back and I think Maybe Ben isn't so wrong about being scared of the ocean.
Ken
I don't think anyone should be, like, completely putting their faith and trust in the ocean and the ocean creatures. These creatures don't give a. About anyone.
Ryan
Do you think they're having a little ocean podcast down there and they're also talking about the land creatures?
Ken
No, I just don't think it's a misunderstanding. Well, actually, I feel like dolphins maybe have, like, a little bit of sense of, like, human.
Ryan
Yeah. Of their mammals.
Mike
And scientifically that is proven.
Ken
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Ben
Well, yeah, they're wild animals, man.
Ryan
Tom Holland talked about on a podcast. He swam with killer whales or killer orcas. There's a difference. And he said they were super nice.
Ken
Yeah, it's. That's just not true. That's just not scientifically proven to be true. Why would they call them killer whales?
Ryan
Well, they technically don't really kill people. I don't think they've ever attacked people.
Ken
Enough to just put your trust in them.
Ryan
Yeah, I mean, I probably wouldn't jump in the waters. You ever seen the whale hunters video? South park did a big meme thing on them. You ever see when, like, there's the. They're trying to protect the whales against the Asian fishermen who, like, spear them and stuff. And then it really just got really weird and, like, power hungry. And then I think the guy ended up being, like a pedophile or something like that.
Mike
No, I've been seeing in real life.
Ken
Or this.
Ryan
Yeah, no, in real life, I've been.
Mike
Seeing tick tocks like that. There is a ship that goes out and like, attacks the poachers. The whale poachers. And it's crazy, dude. They. They like, pull up and no joke. I thought the ship was trying to rob the other two ships. No, they were the good guys. And they, like, rammed into the back of the ship full size. Like barges rammed into the back of the ship and they're like, sprint. They're like, talking a different language. Spraying them. Because, you know, you spray them so that they can't, like, get onto your boat. What? But I'm spray them, like, so they have, like, giant fire hoses. So you were trying to get onto my boat and I spray you with a fire hose. It's not gonna be very easy. Right.
Ben
So that's where.
Mike
That's their defense.
Ben
How pirate ships have evolved. They used to have cannons. Now they have fire hose.
Mike
Yeah. And so I forget what it's called. It's a. Some of you may know it, but there's like, A name for this ship because they're like kind of a bounty hunter.
Ben
Why do they spray my water though?
Ryan
I think it's cuz it's like not as lethal as a. Yeah, as far.
Mike
As I know they're like still trying to get on the ship and like.
Ben
They'Re trying to fight.
Mike
Yeah, I guess fight them but I didn't see like there was guns involved or anything. But then again I can't remember the name of the ship but everyone's commenting like yo give so and so cannons or like the next decommissioned military. Whatever ship barge it is, give that to them because they need it.
Ken
So they.
Mike
Yeah, they're just out there.
Ben
Do they. Do they arrest them or they just ram into them? Spray with water out of commission.
Ken
I think. I think they're like trying to.
Ben
So they try to sink that motherfucking boat to the bottom of the sea.
Ken
Yeah, that's.
Ben
That's. That's killing them.
Mike
Yeah, no, I definitely think they stranded. They wouldn't feel bad if the. Their ship sank.
Ben
You guys ever see that when like I don't know if it's like the coast guard or what but it'll be like military and they like start firing guns at like.
Evan
Yeah.
Ben
Somalian pirates. Holy. Like they'll be out on like a little ding and there's like. And you just see it hitting the water like God dang.
Ken
Dude.
Mike
So they're called sea shepherds.
Ryan
Sea shepherds. That's what it is.
Evan
Looks sick.
Ben
Yeah. Because whalings. Why is it so popular in Japan? They obviously like.
Ryan
Or something like that.
Ben
Yeah. Wow, that's a sweet boat. And that's the one that rams.
Mike
Heck dude.
Ken
Holy.
Ben
That rams your boat. You're going down, dude.
Ryan
Imagine you're boats that they're on that the whalers on. Look at. Yeah, the anti whaling boat. Badly damaged. I mean like they're going up against.
Ben
Big big ships and they just ram them.
Ryan
I guess so.
Ben
So sometimes they have the smaller ship.
Ryan
Yeah, I would say their boats are smaller though.
Ben
The anti wheeling smaller. Yeah, that's even more impressive. What I figured they had big boats and they were.
Mike
Dude, they have the literally the coolest barges I've ever seen. Yeah, that's that like they're literally running ramming into the right side of their ship into the left side of this big bar out there.
Ben
Like in the ocean like obviously you're doing something bad but then all of a sudden a boat just pulls up and rams. What the bro?
Evan
I suppose like if you've got like a pointy Hull or something on the. The front. Like you can probably just ram into the side of one of those boats and just pierce through it.
Mike
I wish I knew a little bit more.
Ben
It's gotta be quite a shake of.
Mike
What they did after hit.
Ryan
Yeah.
Ben
Another. Because obviously there's so much momentum there.
Ken
Yeah. Can you imagine trying to outrun that thing?
Ben
That's pretty cool, actually.
Mike
Yeah, it is it.
Ben
I'd like to see a video of this. If someone could find one.
Ken
Evan would have had a video pulled up again.
Mike
And he doesn't even know how to run a computer.
Ben
They're just.
Ryan
Oh, are we about to see them get hit?
Ben
They're gonna.
Evan
There we go.
Mike
Wait.
Ryan
Oh, man.
Mike
That boat coming at them.
Ryan
Oh, there's the whole front end. They're just.
Ben
They're flat out trying to kill them.
Mike
Yeah.
Ryan
I mean that.
Mike
I think the big boat that hit him is like the bad guy.
Ryan
Yeah.
Ken
Yeah, it is.
Ben
Oh, my gosh. They just got up, bro. And now they're still spraying their ass. Look at that.
Mike
That's what I mean.
Ben
They don't even care. They're sending them to the bottom.
Mike
Just didn't quite.
Ben
Jones locker.
Mike
How cutthroat this is.
Ken
These whalers.
Ben
Those people die. What happens, though? Oh, they got a. Is this a show?
Ryan
Yeah, yeah. I think it got canceled because the one guy got like indicted or something like that.
Ben
So what happens if you kill someone out on the o like the ocean like that? Because like, who. What's the jurisdiction? Who goes after those guys? Takes care of them?
Ryan
I mean.
Ben
Or is it like, hey, man, out there? There's no laws.
Mike
Apparently there's just not enough people, you know, going after the whalers that people wanted to take it in their own hands. I don't think. Yeah, the Sea Shepherds I don't think are like a military operation.
Ken
Who funds the sea.
Ben
I'd like to watch that show. That looks like an exciting show.
Ken
Yo. Can you guys imagine if like Deadliest Catch, where they're out there crabbing was like that? Where you had like ram. Deadliest going after. They see each other on their radar.
Mike
As if it's like literally not already one of the sketchiest things that you.
Ben
Could do on tv.
Ken
I don't know. I don't think so.
Mike
They had a good run, though.
Evan
Sea Shepherds is just a non profit organization that accepts donations.
Mike
That is insane.
Ryan
You must. Is murder legal and international waters? Put simply, no. You have to abide by the laws of where your boat is registered. And apparently you have to have a registered boat but, like, what if you just don't register a boat? I'm sure that's wherever you're sitting.
Ben
Yeah. Then. Then it's like, okay, well, this guy comes from nowhere. You're just like, this is my home.
Evan
Yeah, but it's like you do stuff in the middle of the ocean.
Ben
Who knows? No one knows.
Ryan
Yeah.
Ben
Don't ever want to be on boat with this guy.
Ken
Yeah.
Ben
What the.
Mike
I went on a cruise with Ken. Luckily, I didn't die.
Ken
Ken's watching his watch, and he keeps checking his GPS of where he's like, all right, we're fine.
Ben
Overboard.
Ken
Mike, you mind having a conversation with me on the.
Evan
You want to go over by this rather low railing?
Ben
I know you need another drink, right?
Ryan
Upon further research, it basically just says where. If your ship isn't registered, then it's from wherever you're from. If you won't tell them where you're from, it's for whoever caught you.
Ben
Nice to take care of.
Ryan
To take care of. So basically, you cannot do anything on the ocean.
Ben
Kind of sounds like you kind of can.
Ryan
You kind of can. Unless you don't get caught.
Mike
Yeah. Well, that's like anything unless you get caught.
Ben
Unless you get caught, in a sense.
Ken
But yeah, I think that'd be a great video where we go, like, crabbing or something like that, or crawfish, and I think that'd be pretty good. And then somebody was also telling me the other day that it'd be a good video bit to go catfishing, where you put your hand in, like. Yeah, catfish holes.
Ben
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Ken
Like, down in holes. And then catfish come out and they like. And then you pull them out.
Ben
Yeah, yeah, I've seen that.
Ryan
I have a renewal of sticking my limbs in places that I can't see.
Ken
Same. I do not want to do that. I was just saying.
Ben
Somebody. Holy shit, I'd love to see that. They don't have teeth, though, huh?
Ken
Not really. You gotta hope that there's a catfish on the other end of that hole.
Ben
Not a what?
Ken
I don't know, but when I was saying that to my friends that were telling me that, they were like, dude, people do it all the time. Hot chicks do it.
Ben
Yeah, I've seen Instagram hot girls do it.
Ken
Yeah.
Evan
Sign me up then, I guess.
Ben
Oh, no.
Ryan
No.
Mike
That is funny you said that because there's like a whole. There's like a genre of, like, chicks that do that, you know?
Ben
Oh, really? Yeah.
Mike
Get all, like, Western on there, and they're like, not Western, but, like, redneck. And they're like, yee, yee. And then they catch a bunch of catfish, and everyone's like, oh, my gosh, she's so hot.
Ben
Yeah.
Ken
I don't know if I've actually ever seen that. Can you pull that up? I must be on girls. Must be on a different TikTok algorithm.
Evan
Oh, God, I don't even want to search.
Ben
No, it's.
Ken
Honestly, it's called noodling. Yeah.
Ryan
Hot girl noodling.
Ben
Yeah, Catfish with their stingers and whatnot.
Evan
Video title Hot girl catches giant catfish with bear.
Ben
Catch catfish on your lake, Ben.
Ryan
What a swamp.
Ben
Yeah, no, I remember I used to.
Ken
Catfish on every lake.
Ben
I. I just remember when I was a kid, I would catch catfish because my. You know, they'd rent out a little cabin and I would catch them pretty frequently on DL.
Ryan
She's under there for a long time. No way. Just like that, huh?
Mike
Consider it noodled.
Ben
That thing won't let go.
Ryan
Look at that.
Ken
That is.
Ben
Grab that thing.
Ryan
Ugly. Ugly looking.
Ben
Yeah. Catfish are so gross, dude.
Mike
Yeah, I agree, man.
Ken
I just can't get the image of sticking your hand down a hole and a big old catfish latching on. I just. I don't know, Ken. I feel like that. I feel like that's like something that you should do for a video alone.
Evan
Or with somebody else.
Ken
Alone.
Ben
We'll send a GoPro.
Ken
We'll send a GoPro.
Evan
I feel like it's something we all have to do, not just one.
Mike
Yeah. If you don't get noodled, you're not a part of the crew anymore, dude.
Ken
I got on Crawfish TikTok. Super satisfying to watch. Like, I think crawfishing is, like, one of those things.
Mike
Really?
Ken
I would assume it's probably like, farming TikTok of, like, farming satisfying things or whatever, but not on that. Just on Crawfish TikTok, though. It's dirty work, but it's honest.
Ryan
Ain't much, but it's honest.
Mike
Yeah, it sounds satisfying. Speaking of that, I have a bunch bubble wrap to run over with the one wheel, so.
Ryan
Oh, that is satisfying.
Mike
It's been fun, but.
Ken
All right.
Ryan
Sounds good.
Ken
Yeah, I guess that's good. Time to end.
Ryan
Well, we're going to go pop some bubble wrap. We'll see you guys next Tuesday.
Mike
No, it's all mine.
