• Truck Swap Irony

  • In a twist, Dalton’s actual truck broke down, forcing him to drive the team’s Cheeto-fied replica around instead.
  • Evan: “Dalton's truck broke, so now he is driving around our replica version of his truck.” (00:00, 31:00)
  • Discussion of the differences between building a true race truck vs. a fun beater and why daily-driving a heavily modded truck is a “delusional" concept.

    • “I kind of hate any animal that's in a cage because they're just not that entertaining and they stink.” (17:01)

• Wheels Falling Off (Literally)

  • Evan recounts how he under-torqued the lug nuts on the replica truck, resulting in the wheel flying off right before the big prank.
    • “So, I. I was the one that put the wheels on. So it is my fault. But what I was scared of is we have this ripper Milwaukee half inch impact... I under torqued them.” (28:36)

• Sleepwalking Horror Stories

  • Ben admits to multiple bad falls while sleepwalking—including tumbling down a full flight of stairs and scaring the family.
    • Ben: “I've fallen down a full flight of stairs twice... One time I did it sleepwalking.” (10:23)
    • Ken: “You always get very startled by something whenever you're, like, sleepwalking.” (12:12)

  • The group reminisces about family pets, including CJ’s grandfather’s foul-mouthed, long-lived parrot “Mango”—whose inheritance became a family debate before he tragically died in a house fire.
    • CJ: “But like, parrots live to be, like, 70 years old or something crazy... so you gotta think mango's still gonna be kicking it.” (17:52)
    • Evan: “No, Mango. Mango died in a house fire.” (18:38)

5. Team Debates, Shop Dynamics, and Relationships

• 'Titties or Beer’ Poll

  • A spirited, tongue-in-cheek debate on whether the guys would rather give up beer or "titties", with Ryan controversially picking beer.

  • Ben expands on how generative AI like ChatGPT and photo AI tools are radically altering daily tasks, from generating custom truck wraps to solving math and landscaping problems.
    • Ben: “But it almost makes like you don’t really need to know how to do much or, like, know that much anymore…” (56:15)

Transcript

[Ben]

Dalton's truck broke, so now he is driving around our replica version of his truck.

[CJ]

I think we need a dog running around.

[Evan]

I'm gonna be the one that has to take care of it.

[CJ]

And I look down, and sure enough, there's a snake staring at me.

[Gavin]

What?

[Ryan]

And I slammed down so hard, you would have thought I would have, like, gone through the floor.

[Evan]

This is why I don't come work out.

[Ben]

Pretty suspicious.

[Evan]

I don't want to be anywhere near that.

[Ben]

What are your thoughts on Dalton's truck, Evan?

[Evan]

Take one, leave one.

[Ryan]

Ryan, titties or beer? I'm taking beer. I think I spend more time with beer than the other. What's. What? Order you.

[CJ]

Everyone.

[Ben]

Bro took beer over titties.

[Ryan]

What? You still got butts.

[Gavin]

What?

[Ben]

It's a controversial statement.

[Gavin]

Yeah, that is how.

[CJ]

All right, cj. It's starting to make sense.

[Ryan]

What is?

[Gavin]

I don't think it's controversial. I just wasn't expecting you to say that.

[Ryan]

What would you say? The latter.

[CJ]

I dropped beer in a heartbeat.

[Ben]

Same.

[Ryan]

I guess I am over to Kitty now.

[CJ]

I wouldn't take bro.

[Ben]

I'm not getting. There's very few things I'm getting rid of before Titties.

[CJ]

Ryan didn't even have to think about it.

[Ryan]

Where do you draw the line?

[Ben]

My family. I think that's about it.

[Ryan]

Oh, man, I'm confused. Like, what's the severity of my decision here? Like, I can never see them again.

[Evan]

Yep.

[Gavin]

Oh, now we're talking about your family. No, man, that's.

[Ben]

Comment down below. What you guys think.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ken]

What do you.

[Ryan]

What do you.

[Ben]

Titties or beer? What are you taking?

[Gavin]

If you.

[Ben]

If you had to get rid of one. You only get one option for rest of your life.

[CJ]

Yeah, we're getting into it, eh?

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Evan]

I can't choose. For the record, I don't know.

[Ben]

I feel like you can still drink twisted tea and all your still drink.

[Ken]

Still drink vodka.

[Evan]

Yeah.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Evan]

Get rid of the beer. As long as I still drink other liquors. Yeah. Keep the tits for sure.

[Gavin]

The beer.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I kind of didn't think about all that. I thought about just alcohol in general. But whatever. I'll stand by it. I'll stand by it.

[Gavin]

Ryan's gonna look like he's enjoying the hell out of the Coors Light when we all pick titties.

[CJ]

That guy just sure loves his be. All right.

[Gavin]

I mean, what the heck else is new? Boys, we gotta change the subject.

[CJ]

Yeah, I don't know.

[Ben]

Mike Were both wearing Corrugated.

[CJ]

Whatever, dude.

[Ben]

Everyone made a big deal when I showed up in these one day and they're. You were correated. What are they? Corduroy. Corduroy pants. I'm like, okay, so. Yeah. So what's that mean? They're like. Those are so outdated.

[CJ]

Who said that?

[Ryan]

I don't think they are.

[Ben]

I heard it like multiple times when I broke these things out last year.

[Ryan]

From who?

[Gavin]

It's like a 90s thing.

[Ben]

And now at least five handful.

[Gavin]

It's like literally everything comes back around eventually. Baggy jeans are back in like mullets. Mullets, dude. Yeah, everything.

[Evan]

It's never left, did they?

[Ryan]

I feel like there was a time where mullets were out.

[Evan]

I take that back. I think now, yeah, maybe they're more mainstream. But like the real mullet guys, they never let them go.

[Ryan]

Like Gavin. I don't even.

[Gavin]

They're like this.

[Ben]

Yeah. Mullets are pretty mainstream now, aren't they?

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Does that make them less cool, would you say?

[Evan]

I think yeah. Like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Ben]

Less cool. I cool.

[CJ]

But I think acceptable.

[Ben]

Since you're like so core. Evan, you should get a rat tail variation.

[CJ]

This guy with a rat?

[Ben]

Yes. It's gonna be like sitting right here. Dude.

[Evan]

When we had to buzz our heads out in Moab or Salt Lake, wherever we were.

[Gavin]

He asked you. It was either you or Dalton.

[Evan]

He was joking. I might have been.

[Gavin]

What?

[CJ]

No.

[Evan]

He could have run it for like a week and then sniff.

[Ryan]

If you showed up with a rat tail, I wouldn't even have been mad about you not not buzzing your whole head.

[Evan]

It would have been 99.

[Ryan]

Yeah, it would have been. That's what I mean. I wouldn't have been mad about it.

[Gavin]

One of the barbers did ask that because both you and Dalton had long hair, but you have more like rat tail type hair.

[CJ]

You want me to leave this?

[Gavin]

But no, that'd be insane if you got a rat tail.

[Evan]

Remember when I was pulling my hair out and Dalton was losing his mind? So I have like big dreadlocks and I just started grabbing them and ripping these chunks out. He was like he was going to puke.

[Gavin]

Actually, I don't know if I do.

[CJ]

Remember this before you cut your hair.

[Evan]

Yes, but I can't remember who.

[CJ]

Dreadlocks.

[Gavin]

No.

[Ben]

He had like the back literal like a little matted hair. Like a dog.

[Evan]

Yeah, like a long haired dog that dragged its ass through the line.

[Ben]

Like a long haired dog that has a bad owner that doesn't comb it. Evan just treated his. His own hair that way.

[Evan]

Just let it get all matted I would run conditioner. Like, maybe not every day, but, like, every other day. I didn't like to overdo it, but I never owned a comb or a brush until about two weeks before I cut my hair. I actually finally brought a brush, and now I don't need it.

[CJ]

Started brushing your hair?

[Evan]

Yep.

[CJ]

I think a lot of you, Evan, but I never once thought, man, this guy's got, like, greasy or dreadlocked hair.

[Ken]

Well, you're just always wearing a hat back then. You still are, but. So you just never really noticed it.

[Evan]

I mean, just, like, the six inches that was below that.

[Gavin]

But yeah, now that you say it, for how long of hair you've had and how long you've had long hair, I never seen you brush it or comb it, dude.

[CJ]

You guys brush your hair. Like, I've never brushed my hair ever.

[Gavin]

Yours isn't long enough?

[CJ]

Yeah, no, my hair gets long.

[Ben]

My hair is just straight.

[Gavin]

Yeah, but it's not. Well, it does get long. I'm just saying, like, I would understand why you don't, but when Evan has hair to his shoulders, it does make sense, but I just never thought about it, and I'm sure you didn't either.

[CJ]

Something about Evan shaving his head, it just made, like, everything he did. That usually is, like, deemed as bad behavior somewhat.

[Ben]

Okay.

[CJ]

Because it was just like, ah, he's just a little kid. Like, he's always just, like, misbehaving again.

[Evan]

I've been getting, like, mixed reviews on it. Some people say that I look more clean cut and whatever. Other people say I look like more of a criminal.

[Ben]

You look pretty badass, I think. I think you look good. You should have him run the short hair.

[Evan]

And it's weird. No, I think that's like a jail thing. You get in there and they just.

[Gavin]

I don't know how to explain it, but I agree with both of those.

[CJ]

I would have loved to see you bald, Ev. You should have just gone, like, all out and just went, ball. You got to be like a bald, naked mole rat.

[Evan]

I'd probably want to. I'd probably look an awful lot like Gavin. Just a short, stocky guy with a fucking bald head. Like, it probably wouldn't be that much different.

[CJ]

Also, we need to clarify some things.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[CJ]

A lot of people thought in the last podcast, when we were talking about Gavin fighting Jake Sherbrooke, they thought we meant Gavin. Three wheeler Gavin. Well, we never clarify that it was our mechanic, Gavin, which changes a lot, in my opinion.

[Ben]

Everything makes it way crazier. Yeah.

[CJ]

So anyway, I just wanted to. I just wanted to clarify that while we were on that topic, I would.

[Evan]

Love to see 3 Wheeler Gav and Jake go, though. That would be a way more even match.

[Ryan]

Freaking heavyweights.

[Ben]

But I still think Jake would piece.

[CJ]

Him up strong, though.

[Evan]

I'm willing to bet he'd just take.

[Ben]

A beating, that's for sure.

[Evan]

Take a beating, take a fall. He can take a punch.

[Ben]

Jake would tire himself out beating up Gavin to the point where maybe he would just be done.

[Ryan]

But I don't really see the anger in, like, the aggression in Gavin, you.

[Evan]

Know, a few times.

[Ken]

Way too nice.

[Ben]

Three Wheeler, Gav.

[Evan]

You take a dump in his tail, he's not happy.

[CJ]

He was fired up.

[Ryan]

What was he fired up about?

[CJ]

When Dalton pooped in his tail.

[Gavin]

He's a pretty easy going guy, but over the course of the road trip, we found some ways to push his buttons.

[Evan]

Yeah, he also got pretty mad when. What's that little stunt called where I got down behind him and Spenny pushed him?

[Ryan]

Tabletop.

[Evan]

Yeah, he's pretty mad there, too.

[CJ]

Everyone loves a good Tabletop.

[Ben]

It's kind of mean middle school behavior.

[Evan]

Yeah.

[CJ]

Yeah, for sure.

[Ryan]

Remember at Talladega last year or.

[Ben]

No.

[Ryan]

Where was it? Cletus's thing when we were gonna meet the original Gravedigger and Gravedigger's son, Ryan? I believe we was like, go prank my dad. And then you're like, what am I supposed to do? Tabletop.

[CJ]

Imagine we. Tabletop.

[Evan]

Gravedigger.

[Ben]

That'd be hilarious.

[Evan]

It would be. Legendary Tabletop, Dude.

[CJ]

Out to the count. He breaks his elbow.

[Ben]

Tailbone. His tailbone.

[Evan]

I haven't. I haven't really seen that many people lately doing it. Maybe we should really bring that back because it's not.

[Gavin]

It's. It's not as meant for full grown people.

[Ken]

Adults.

[Gavin]

You know, when kids do it, bro, you just, like, fall and it's funny.

[Ben]

You're at. Makes sense.

[Gavin]

And then when you do it to an adult, it's like, yeah, they could be out, man.

[Ben]

Adults normally are standing on concrete, too.

[Gavin]

A lot of asphalt.

[Ryan]

Yeah, they don't get grass under the beach.

[Ben]

Unless it's us. Yeah, I mean, the beach is probably.

[Evan]

A better place to do it.

[Ryan]

True.

[Gavin]

Next time we're on a beach, I'll do it with you. Hell, you can do it.

[Evan]

No, me. We'll pick someone up, we'll team up and.

[Gavin]

Yeah, that's what I meant. Yeah.

[Evan]

Yeah, yeah, dude.

[CJ]

Adults need to just, like, continue. It's like continued education of, like, taking falls, you know? Like, kids are pretty good at it. And then once you get into your teens, you maybe stop taking falls as quite as much. And then, like, I'd say, like, 20 to 75, you know, you're pretty much stable. But then after 75, you start falling again, and then that's when it all goes south.

[Ryan]

You're out of practice, right?

[CJ]

You like?

[Ben]

Yeah.

[CJ]

So it's got to be, like, continued ed of falling.

[Ryan]

I missed a step and fell in my house, and I was holding, like, a metal. Like, a yeti water bottle, and I slammed down so hard, you would have thought I would have, like, gone through the floor. Like, I. I just went down like a bag of bricks. And, like, damn. I really haven't taken a good fall in a while. I get back in the quad water bottle. No, I didn't break the floor either, so that's good.

[CJ]

Something about, like, walking upstairs, too, when you miss a stair and you. It's like you slam so hard. Like, I do that all the time because my sauna's downstairs, and I'm always walking up the stairs, like, kind of, like, lightheaded, and I'm like, just trying to get up, miss a stair, and just like.

[Gavin]

That's the Joe Byron.

[CJ]

Yeah, Usually it's going down, though.

[Ryan]

Down is worse.

[Gavin]

Yeah, that is.

[Ryan]

Because then you tumble. But, yeah, you do take a good. It's like a slap.

[CJ]

Oh, you're right. The meme of him climbing up the stairs when Trump hits the golf ball.

[Gavin]

No, that's how he's that guy anymore. Frustrating. Like, I. Whenever I walk up and down stairs, I'm like, weird. I weirdly focus in on it because the last thing you want to do at any point in your life is fall down the stairs or up them.

[Evan]

So you're saying, like, when you get there, you really lock it?

[Gavin]

Yeah, I consciously.

[CJ]

It's weird.

[Gavin]

Maybe it's like an OCD thing, but I literally, if I'm gonna skip steps, I'm like, in my head, all right, we're gonna skip. We're gonna go boom, boom, boom. If I'm gonna walk up them, I'm like, all right, we're gonna walk. It's gonna be chill.

[Ben]

I've fallen down a full flight of stairs twice. Like, like, solid from the top. Like, I mean, like, face first, no arms. One time I did it sleepwalking.

[Gavin]

Did you do it at the old shop or who?

[Ben]

And I did it at the old shop, and I cut my eye open. You fell and I face planted so hard because, remember, it was like, kind of short up there. I had to lean hunched over and forward and I tripped on something and I. Because I had these big boots on and I just literally went down and there was no railing either to grab. So it was just like. It just face first. Broke it with my face. I even have a scar from it. But yeah, I've done it twice.

[Ryan]

Didn't you hit the hose reel or something? Like.

[Ben]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Yeah. We were drinking. It was a late night.

[CJ]

That was not good.

[Ryan]

That was the other time was sleepwalking.

[Ben]

Yeah. Scared my family, I bet. Yeah. My little brother was like, pretty small at the time. I'm pretty sure he started crying. Like they thought I was like, really hurt, but I was just down there like, oh.

[CJ]

At what point do you wake up?

[Evan]

When he hit the ground, I bet.

[Ben]

I just recall, like, middle midway through. Like, you know, it was just like a blur.

[Ryan]

But it's a bummer you didn't wake up after you hit the ground, you know, then. Then you wouldn't have to deal with the pain of it.

[Ben]

Yeah. You know, knock the wind out of you pretty good.

[Evan]

When you're sleepwalking, are you. Do you ever recall, like, being in a dream? Yeah, like you're doing something different and then you.

[Ben]

Nah, maybe sometimes, but most of the time it's like I'm delirious. I'm just like standing and I'm like half awake. Like I'm looking for something. It's almost like the dream bleeds into real life. That's probably the best way to describe it. Like you're dreaming and then it kind of like you're like. You wake up but you're half awake and then you're doing something. I guess it bleeds in, in a sense, but by the time you remember, kind of, you realize it, you kind of remember the last half of it.

[Ken]

You always get very startled by something whenever you're like, sleepwalking or something, because you're always like prancing around somewhere upstairs and then you're just screaming, and then it's just like, oh, I love.

[Gavin]

Again, Ken's input on CJ Sleep Reindeer.

[Ben]

Ken is going to be like, his sleep is going to be so much better once his house is done. Like, without me up above him fucking freaking out in the middle of the night. Like, he's going to be. He's just going to be sleeping like a baby.

[Ryan]

Can. Can you look up what sleepwalking is a sign of, like, you know, they say if you're a good dreamer, you're Creative or some shit like that. Like, there's got to be something.

[Evan]

It gets a psychopath. Really? I made that up.

[CJ]

Just because if you sleep, you're a pervert.

[Gavin]

Oh, yeah.

[Ben]

I can't be true.

[CJ]

I know.

[Ben]

It's sleepwalking. All day, all night. That'd be Evan's new thing. I was sleepwalking. That wasn't me. What am I supposed to do? I was sleepwalking.

[Ryan]

I was asleep.

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Ken]

It's caused by not getting enough sleep stress and sleep schedule disruption.

[Ben]

I don't know how true that is for my case, but, yeah, I'll take it.

[Evan]

You mean you don't believe what they say on the Internet?

[Ben]

I. I mean, those three things, I don't know how applicable they are to me.

[CJ]

I had a dream last night that there was, like, snakes in my room. Because when I was. I was working out at the gym, and, like, the gym owner was just in there and he was like, hey, you guys gotta let me know if you see snakes in the gym.

[Ben]

I was like, snakes?

[Gavin]

There's too many motherfuckers.

[CJ]

How could these snakes get in the gym? And he was like, they're little bastards outside. I've killed 57 of them outside. And they final cracks in the walls, and they go up the insides of the walls, then come in from the ceiling.

[Gavin]

And I was like, he painted a nice picture for you.

[CJ]

I was like, that just seems insane. And I shit you not, he walks out the door, and I go and hop on this machine, I run a couple sets, and I look down, and sure enough, there's a snake staring at me.

[Gavin]

What the hell?

[Ben]

So what'd that guy do? He grabbed it? Yep. And did what with it?

[CJ]

Brought it outside and curb stomped it.

[Ben]

Did he really?

[Ryan]

Yeah. How have we never seen a snake? I mean, like, we've been in there a fair amount. Never seen a snake.

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

And then now, six minutes after he tells us there's snakes, we see one.

[Ben]

Is an interesting location to have snakes because it's, like, in town, the concrete.

[Gavin]

Behind it is kind of like a marsh, I guess.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Evan]

I mean, we've had. Remember that snake that got under the oven?

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Oh, yeah.

[Evan]

Last summer.

[Gavin]

Couple a lot of salmon.

[Evan]

I see a lot.

[Ryan]

They really like.

[Evan]

Like the culvert in the ditch where the grass grows up there. You go in there, but go buy it with the mower. And there'll be like four scurry out at once.

[Gavin]

They throw some really good parties.

[Evan]

And allegedly, I chase them down with the mower.

[Ben]

You know, I could see you having a pet snake in your den, like you go in there, it's like there's, it's, it's, you know, your room is pretty messy, but then like there's this glass tank type of thing and I have this snake there.

[Ryan]

You had a snake?

[Gavin]

Yeah, you did. Wow.

[Ben]

How long?

[Evan]

Five years. What happened to I got it at the end of its life. It wasn't me. How long was the snake? Like five feet.

[Gavin]

Wow.

[Ken]

How big was the.

[Ben]

Did you take it out of its case a lot or no. Yeah.

[Evan]

Yep. I can't remember what kind it was. I acquired it at like, it was already at like two thirds life. I think they have like a 15 year lifespan or something and it was already like old. It needed to go somewhere so it ended up at my house for some reason.

[Ben]

Whose was it?

[Evan]

Just acquired it.

[Ryan]

Your mom doesn't strike. Not when you're in high school. Okay. Your house. I was going to say your mom doesn't seem like the type of lady that would love snakes in her house.

[Evan]

Yeah. Did the whole thing get the frozen mice in the freezer and then you just run them under some water? I can't remember why that. They told me you're not supposed to feed it in the cage. It might make them aggressive. Then when they think the lid comes off, if you're going to maybe play with it or something. So.

[Gavin]

Right.

[Evan]

Feed them in the bathtub. Like with no water. Thaw the mouse, put in the bathtub, let it eat the mouse, which was usually a very quick process. And then back how many times.

[Ryan]

You're such a good snake owner.

[Evan]

Ah, man, I can't remember. It was like only like once a week or something.

[CJ]

Oh, really?

[Evan]

It wasn't super often. I. I can't recall exactly.

[CJ]

So you would have to take that thing out.

[Evan]

Yeah. It wasn't like sketchy. I wasn't going to bite you. It wasn't super big around you. There was more kind of snake was.

[Gavin]

I can't really never get out.

[Evan]

No, never got out.

[Ryan]

You ever feed it live mice? Nope.

[Evan]

No. Never a live mouse.

[CJ]

And then what happened?

[Evan]

It just died.

[CJ]

The snake is the worst snake story ever.

[Ben]

Like you just woke up one day and it was dead in his cage or what?

[Evan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Dude, that's such a sad life for a snake.

[Evan]

Just like even like wild snakes that I hit with the weed whacker.

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Ben]

But they have at least like they live until that moment that they die rather than just being cooped up in like a glass thing or like you could do that. You could say the same thing with, like, gerbils, hamsters. Like, a dog that just sits in a cage all day.

[Evan]

I kind of hate any animal that's in a cage because they're just not that entertaining and they stink.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Evan]

People that have house rabbits, like, it.

[Ben]

Sucks for the person, in my opinion, and it sucks for the animal. The animals got the tiniest. Like, imagine you could only move within this little square, you know, it just kind of sucks.

[CJ]

Me and CJ's grandpa used to have bunnies.

[Ryan]

Really?

[CJ]

But he would just let him roam around the entire upstairs.

[Ryan]

That's kind of cool. They poop everywhere.

[CJ]

Yeah. It's probably pretty gross.

[Ken]

I'm assuming it made it stink pretty bad in there.

[Ryan]

Yeah, but they just hopped around. They just chilled.

[Evan]

Yeah. That's pretty cool, because some of those, like.

[CJ]

Yeah, they're big bunnies.

[Evan]

Big.

[CJ]

Yep. Then he also had a parrot. He was a dick. Mango.

[Evan]

Parrots can be mean.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[CJ]

Well, he just had a mouth on him.

[Ben]

He was like, oh, really?

[CJ]

Oh, yeah.

[Evan]

They only say what they've heard. So who's saying?

[CJ]

Yeah, my grandpa was training that. But, like, parrots live to be, like, 70 years old or something crazy. Like, they live a long, long life. And this mango was, like, 45 years old. So, like, the family was like, all right, who gets mango if Grandpa passes away? You know, my grandpa's 80, me and CJ's grandpa, 83, or something like that. So you gotta think mango's still gonna be kicking it.

[Evan]

It's like the opposite of a dog where the family might fight over who gets Grandpa's dog for the last five years, but it's a prayer. Like, no.

[CJ]

I feel like me and CJ might have had to have just stepped up and just taken mango. He would have. They all been the new sh. Well, Ben and CJ will take Mango to the shop.

[Ryan]

Walking in here. Hello.

[Ben]

Oh, you know, you learn way more.

[Evan]

So Mango for real?

[CJ]

No, Mango. Mango died in a house fire.

[Evan]

That's.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Evan]

My bad.

[Ben]

Yep. No, it's okay.

[CJ]

Rip.

[Evan]

Mangoes.

[CJ]

Yep.

[Ben]

Bringing up touchy subjects now. I have.

[Evan]

Dude, Nikki's mom has two parrots, and the one, what? Two different kinds. One of them's super friendly. It'll just crawl all over you. It's chilling. The other one, the only person that can hold it is Nikki's mom. And it'll look friendly, but it will just bite you and it draws blood.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Really?

[Evan]

It hurts. I messed around and found out it's quick, like a snapping turtle or something. You think is slow and you get a little close and it'll just. I was teasing it. Nikki's like, don't do that. Stick my finger in the cage and sure as right on the tip of my finger draws blood.

[Ben]

Yeah, you can hear it now. The family's, like, eating dinner.

[CJ]

Ah.

[Ryan]

How old are those parrots?

[Evan]

I believe around middle of their lifespan. So we've had, like, this same conversation.

[Ryan]

Of who acquires the bird.

[Ben]

Yeah, I think tubers, but they can't be.

[Evan]

They got a separate cages and whatever, I think.

[CJ]

Do they talk to each other?

[Evan]

I'm not sure about that, but they talk to the cat and they do. Here, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty.

[Gavin]

Oh, that's really funny, kitty. Yeah.

[Evan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

They better be careful. Cat would kill them.

[Evan]

I think once they realize that they just have to coexist, they. I think they just kind of just.

[Ben]

Chill maybe until they have an opportunity to take it out.

[Evan]

Well, probably.

[Gavin]

I think a cat would love to have its way with it.

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Pretty fun for it. Yeah.

[Gavin]

But not a big bird.

[Evan]

The one is, like, I would say small to medium sized, and the other one is relatively large, and that's the mean one. And I think it could beat up a cat.

[Ryan]

Yeah. Say, I feel like they're pretty big. They're like, the size of a cat.

[Evan]

If it bit that cat, it. The cat's gonna be like, what the heck just happened? Yeah, probably scurry off.

[CJ]

Dude, I'm excited to get a shop dog around here. I think CJ's got to do it, but I think we need a dog running around.

[Evan]

I'm gonna be the one that has to take care of it. Is that the shot?

[CJ]

Are you gonna bring it home?

[Ben]

Stay home?

[Evan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

All right. Maybe bring here every now and then.

[Evan]

I meant if it stayed at the.

[CJ]

Shop, then it wouldn't be a shot. You know, I'm not a stepdad. I'm the dad that stepped up.

[Ben]

That's gonna be.

[CJ]

That's gonna be evident. CJ's dog.

[Ben]

I wouldn't trust Evan with my dog.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Evan]

And it would be taking the peanut butter home at night.

[Ben]

Yeah. I just wouldn't be. Lee. I would not want to leave the dog around here. Yeah, no, you can't have both of them. I'd take one or the other, you know?

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Evan]

Because I'd be giving the dog treats. That's all.

[Ryan]

Weird.

[Evan]

I'd just be feeding it right. Too much.

[Gavin]

Teaching them how to skateboard or something. That.

[Evan]

That would be cool.

[Gavin]

That would be sweet.

[Ryan]

You come back and it's like, knows tricks and Stuff now.

[Ben]

Yeah, that would be sweet. I feel like the most practical pets are dogs and cats.

[Gavin]

Realistically, this is historically a true statement.

[Ryan]

Why don't more people have dogs and cats?

[CJ]

So we. We bought this truck. If you watch last week's video, we bought cheap version of Dalton's truck that he spent the last six months building. And then we did the same stuff to it. But when we were buying the truck, we kind of got duped.

[Evan]

Cheetoed.

[CJ]

Yeah, we got. We got.

[Ben]

You were talking on the last part about me getting scammed. You got scammed.

[Evan]

Oh, man. I'm going to take 50% of the blame.

[Ben]

Holy shit.

[CJ]

Why the hell would you take 50%?

[Ben]

Since when? He's taking accountability a little bit?

[Evan]

Because why? Ben is negotiating the deal. He sends me a truck. I go, looks good to me, as long as it has a 5, 7 hemi. Ben messages. The guy says, does this have a 5, 7, hemi? Guy says, yes. Therefore, I go, it's raining. So I, like, kind of flustered. Just drive it. Whatever. Okay. Start. Water starts, run.

[Ben]

Stops.

[Evan]

Well, no, but I gotta load it up on the trailer and strap it down. Gonna be soaking wet for the ride home for four and a half hours. Like, whatever. It's just a shitty, rusted out Dodge. There wasn't much I actually did the diligence to. Like, it's running. I look underneath it. Not dripping anything. Turn the steering wheel both ways. Like, I gave it a little look.

[CJ]

Over, and you just didn't pop.

[Evan]

Seemed fine. Didn't pop the hood. Didn't pop the hood. But isn't that fair, Ben?

[Ryan]

50.

[Evan]

50.

[Gavin]

Hey, I think that's fair.

[Ben]

I'm happy that you're just taking even part of the accountability.

[Ken]

Well, I mean, that dude just straight up lied about the entire vehicle. Like, didn't he say it had a. A Starlight headliner?

[CJ]

Yeah, the dude was a little rat. I'm gonna be honest. Dude was a little rat. He took a picture of the truck, and I was like, all right, this one is, like, four hours away. It was a little bit more expensive, but it's got Starlight headliner, which was, like, the selling point for me because Dalton's truck had the Starlight headliner. And I was like, that's just, like, the cherry on top.

[Evan]

And we don't want to because it's a pain.

[CJ]

It's been a thousand bucks. It made no sense. I was like, all right, let's just pull the trigger on this one. It's got the same motor and everything that we're looking for. Plus the starlight liner. The dude pulled it out, didn't tell tell us that until Evan got there.

[Evan]

I don't think it was ever in.

[CJ]

Oh, it probably wasn't a. I had.

[Evan]

Like, mark intent, which I trust their opinion. They're looking like, dude, this is such an OEM headliner. There's no way it was ever out and put back in.

[CJ]

Makes sense.

[Ken]

You want to take that out, you have to, like, remove the windshield to get that out of the vehicle. Like, it's not just an easy process.

[Ben]

You would just see a bunch of little prickled holes because they have to poke them.

[Evan]

Well, I mean, probably use a different material. I I. I would assume.

[Ben]

I don't unless you put them in your stock.

[Gavin]

But, I mean, yeah.

[Evan]

I go, oh, it's got a starlight or starliner, whatever they're called. No, I had to take it out for whatever reason it was sagging, but I actually install them. So if you guys ever want one put in, hit me up.

[Ryan]

Wow. Upselling you.

[CJ]

So the dude lies about the motor.

[Ryan]

Lies about the star line is what it is.

[Gavin]

Actually a 4. 7.

[CJ]

But he also. He also, like, tried shaving off the. Like, the cap on top of the motor says, like, 4.7 hemi or whatever.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[CJ]

On the air intake, and he shaved off the four.

[Ryan]

But, like, only half of it. Like, just a quick.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Evan]

I mean, we could tell what it said, but it literally just said seven. Whatever. Like, oh, must be five.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[CJ]

So we figure that out once we start working on it. And then just, like, the cherry on top was what he did after buying it. Oh.

[Gavin]

After Evan instructed him that this purchase is under wraps, so don't post anything about it, please.

[Evan]

Yeah. So right away, he's kind of like, what are you guys doing with this? I'm like, just beat her truck or whatever. Kind of downplayed it. Didn't tell him what we were doing. Get it loaded up. And then he's asked me if he can take a picture of me with the truck. Like, he didn't want to get in the picture, but he, like, stands back, takes a picture of me with it, and he took it, finished ratchet strapping it down, and I'm like, hey, you want to just do me a favor? And, like, don't post this anywhere for at least a couple weeks? It's a big surprise for Dalton. And then, actually, it was probably dumb. I should have just left it. Don't post it. But I thought if I filled him in, he said he was a fan of the channel that he'd be, like, hyped or respect what we were doing, and then he would not post it.

[CJ]

Yep.

[Evan]

And he just said, don't worry. I won't post anything.

[Ben]

Then he posted it and went viral.

[CJ]

Yeah. So he put together a little thing on TikTok of, like, Evan picking it up, and then it's got the photo. Kind of look like you were in collusion with him, and then proceeds to post it. It blows up, and then just. I started reading the comments, and he's just telling everyone in the comments exactly what we were.

[Ryan]

Shut up.

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Oh, my God.

[CJ]

So it's like. It's one thing if he was. He's saying, like, I didn't think it was gonna blow up. But then after it blew up, he still went in and was just like, it's tough because, like, what do you do when you're buying something off Facebook marketplace? Like, it's just public. There's only so much that we can, like, do or complain about it. It's more just like. I mean, at least, like, respect somebody's, like, wishes of, like, hey, you can post this. Just, like, please just wait.

[Evan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

You had no respect for anything.

[CJ]

No respect. Yeah. And then the dude was like, can I pay you to, like, come and be a part of, like, the.

[Ben]

No, we're not.

[CJ]

Surprise. I was like, no, dude.

[Evan]

He wanted to come out.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Evan]

Oh, my. I didn't. I didn't hear this.

[Ben]

He was like, saying that you said it was cool. He was like, yeah, Evan said that it was cool, and I could stay in his room.

[Evan]

It just sucks because he seemed like a decent dude at the time. But that just goes to show you can get screwed by anybody.

[Gavin]

Swanked.

[Ben]

So I. We were always hard on the Facebook marketplace. You got to kick them in the nuts, beat them up.

[Ryan]

We at least get a good deal. You kick them in the nuts.

[CJ]

Well, I did some negotiating on Facebook. Got them down, I don't know, 800 bucks or something like that. And then he was like, since you're driving here, like, we can. We can figure out a price when you get here too. Because I was trying to negotiate the rate of, like, him bringing it here. And then Evan shows up. I tell him, yo, just negotiate this guy down a little bit more. He said he's willing to drop because you're picking it up. And then Evan goes. I go, how much you pay for it? And he was like, full price. What you. What you said? I said, I think it goes, like.

[Evan]

Ben said you were picking it up. For five grand or whatever, I should.

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Evan]

And that, like, that's what I got.

[CJ]

That was just me and Evan not communicate.

[Evan]

It would have been sa been nice to save a few hundred more, but at the end of the day, I just. I drove four and a half hours to get this truck and over $100. I wasn't going to not bring the truck home. It's just like, yeah, whichever. He knew, like, funny, Whatever.

[Ben]

Yeah. So anyways, we get this truck, we wrap it, we put the wheels on. The thing is the identical wrap. Dalton doesn't know about it, obviously, if you guys have seen the video. So he's in the meantime working on his truck in Fargo, and we have this shittier, basically temu version of his truck at a hidden shop in our area. And we wrap this thing in like two days, throw the wheels on and a few other little things basically to then just roll up and surprise the surpriser. Dalton had this whole big thing. He thought we didn't know what his truck looked like, and he was going to unveil it to a surprise us on video. And we had this thing that we were going to basically roll in. And then Evan frickin is driving this thing down to go surprise Dalton and the wheel falls off.

[Evan]

Yeah. So I. I was the one that put the wheels on. So it is my fault. But what I was scared of is we have this ripper Milwaukee half inch impact with a big battery on it. And I know that you could suck the stud right out of there. And this is like an hour before we unveil it. So I'm scared of over torquing these wheels. So I literally told all you guys, like, I'm just going to give it a couple ugadogas. We're going to pull in for the unveil. And then before we rip this thing, we're going to torque them by hand because, you know, if we pull the studs, rip the studs out, then we kind of throw the whole bit. Before it started, I under torqued them.

[Ben]

The wheel flew off in the middle of the road. He calls us frantic.

[Gavin]

No, I know.

[Evan]

So I'm on the phone with Ben because the timing had to be right on where I need to p out of the buddy's shop at the right time when Dalton's coming in and I need to hide down the road.

[CJ]

And let me just tell you how this phone goes.

[Gavin]

This is happening like as you on your way to the field.

[CJ]

So. So this is how this phone call goes. Hello? Hey, can you tell Gavin to Like, meet me down the road so I can like, tighten up these lugs. They got to be loose, dude. Like this. This thing feels okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll go find them right now.

[Gavin]

All right.

[CJ]

All right. Just tell them this is where I'm going to be. Okay. Yep. Hey, Gav. Oh. What? The wheel just fell off. Like he kind of goes silent and I just go, wait, are you serious? He goes, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Cuz I would joke about this, dude.

[Ben]

Nobody's had more wheels fall off in the history of ever than Evan.

[Evan]

But always the weird coincidence about it, our wheels fall off on hoonicorns, which this is looking like one. And uncle Rich has been in town both times. The unicorn wheel has flown.

[Ben]

Maybe he's. Maybe he's losing secret.

[Evan]

He might be. When he gets liquored up, he goes and loses the lug nuts.

[Ben]

Loosens up a motor too.

[Gavin]

You just said you installed the wheel on this.

[Evan]

But he might have snuck in real quick.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ben]

You don't know. But man, our version of Dalton's truck looks so freaking good. It looked way better before Evan up the front fender. But now it's just a funny story.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ben]

But ironically enough, Dalton's truck broke. So now he is driving around our replica version of his truck. Because.

[Evan]

It was one belt. He shredded a belt. But it was so.

[CJ]

Still not driving it.

[Ben]

Yeah. Why has he been driving ours all day?

[CJ]

Supposedly this is his daily now. He's still not driving it.

[Ben]

He posted and he's driving the fake one.

[Ryan]

Yeah, the fake picture.

[Gavin]

Driving the Honda pilot last day in the mom rig or whatever.

[CJ]

Loves that one.

[Ryan]

Dude.

[Evan]

It was so satisfying. Like we filmed the whole bit. It ends with him having a shredded belt. We're wrapping everything up and we had to go film another bit. And Dalton hops in the Cheeto unicorn. And where you going, Dalton? Running to the part store in the replica.

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Did he say he saw some of his boys from high school and they were laughing at him or something?

[Ben]

Yeah. Cuz I'm sure they thought that that was his.

[CJ]

That was his truck.

[Ben]

Oh.

[CJ]

That was the build.

[Ben]

That's the thing with driving around in our fake team. And one like Dalton's is cool. It looks great. It has the power to back it up. Like it's the full package. Ours is as Cheeto as it gets. You know, it's the small motor. It's a piece of truck. It's damaged, then it's got this crazy rap.

[CJ]

The wheels are gold wheels, spray paint.

[Ben]

That are spray painted.

[Evan]

The chopped exhaust. Chopped exhaust has the gurgle tune when you're.

[Ben]

But what's crazy though is like I somehow mistook our fake one as Dalton's today. Well, I was sitting on the phone at the shop and I'm sitting there, I'm doing this like permit thing I gotta apply for and I hear this rumble come up and I turn and look, I see Dalton coming over and I. Oh, you know, and then I just turned back because, you know, I heard it rumble. I didn't realize that the 4, the 4.7 liter was that loud. You know, I didn't really listen much to it. I was pretty preoccupied. But I legit, it's Dalton. And then I go in, I go in the shop and I come out 30 minutes later and realize it wasn't the real one. I go, holy shit, dude. I miss. I just mistook the real one as the. Or the fake one as the real one. That's how good our fake rap job is.

[Ryan]

You could see it out the window, just a little corner of it and you go, yeah, there it is.

[Evan]

When it's crazy.

[Gavin]

Where.

[Evan]

I mean, it is rusted out. The guy did screw us. But it's a solid truck. You know, the tires are balanced, it has ice cold ac.

[Ben]

It was driven.

[Evan]

Bluetooth works. No, but all those things and don't like. Dude, I actually love driving it. It works. It's like, bro, that's what I'm telling you. Just go buy a ten thousand dollar half ton and don't do anything to it other than drive it. Have your race truck, have your race cars, whatever, but just get a half ton truck to get you where you need to go.

[Ryan]

Have a car that works. What a novel thought. Yeah, that you can drive.

[Gavin]

The more I look at the. The kind of. The replica of our replica. Replica Temu version. You know how much like a high schooler would love that exhaust cut the, the monster wrap. Oh yeah, the ebay tail light.

[Evan]

We probably shouldn't idle it for too long or he'll get carbon monoxided. So we didn't actually run the exhaust anywhere. It's just coming out right under the cab. Oh, it'll be like when we all got sick and worried about suburban.

[Gavin]

Yeah, yeah. Don't want them to get sick.

[Ben]

All right, guys, check this out. So you know how we've been golfing a lot lately? Well, I think it's, you know, spread now to some of our girlfriends. And today my girlfriend comes into the shop and we're eating lunch. She's like, I'm going golfing at 2 today with, you know, so and so and so and so, her friends and Alondra, and she's all excited. I'm like, really? You got you going golfing? Well, send me some videos. This is the video she just sent me. I haven't even watched it yet.

[Ryan]

Oh, my God.

[Ben]

She get hit.

[Evan]

I was like, so never here.

[CJ]

I hit my.

[Ben]

I hit the cart.

[Evan]

Maybe wasn't the best place to park the cart, though.

[Ben]

Just a solid two.

[Ryan]

Oh, my God.

[Gavin]

I guess she needs to be in wreck, bro.

[Ben]

They dress nice for the course, too.

[Ryan]

Even I thought the risk of getting hit was only with us.

[Evan]

Cj, what was that muscular guy picture?

[Ben]

Oh, you want to see it?

[Evan]

Not necessarily, but I am concerned.

[Gavin]

Just a concern.

[Ryan]

Who do you think it is?

[Gavin]

I mean, my money's on cj.

[Evan]

No, it kind of looks like Cody, but it's not probably.

[CJ]

Oh, yeah.

[Evan]

I called you a muscular guy. What the were you three doing? This is why I don't come work out.

[Ben]

Pretty suspicious.

[Ryan]

Pretty.

[Evan]

I don't want to be anywhere near that.

[Ben]

Pretty suspicious. What we were doing is our trainer wanted us to practice posing.

[Gavin]

That's exactly what it looked like. Yeah.

[CJ]

I mean, you're going to have to practice at least the poses.

[Evan]

No, I'll just walk out there and stand there. Whatever.

[CJ]

Yeah, but you still got to do the pose.

[Evan]

I don't have to. I'm not going to win, so it doesn't matter how much effort I put into this.

[Gavin]

Yeah, it's true.

[Ben]

I'm not going to defend.

[Evan]

I'm going to be eating a double cheeseburger on my way up down the stage.

[CJ]

Okay, that'd be pretty good.

[Ben]

I'm not gonna defend that video. That's pretty suspicious. And. And I felt uncomfortable sitting in the room. Three of us with our shirt off.

[Gavin]

But it's like, yeah, your adrenaline was going. You just, like, kind of black whipped out the camera.

[Ben]

You don't know what else you know.

[Evan]

Where was Ken when this was going on?

[CJ]

He finished early.

[Ken]

Was that video taken today?

[Ben]

No, it was Monday.

[Evan]

How did I know Ken would be the first one to finish?

[CJ]

He was already cleaning up and going home, bro.

[Evan]

I'll meet you back in the showers.

[CJ]

Yeah, pretty sus on that one. Yeah.

[Ben]

It's like, he's got us doing these poses and stuff, right? And I'm, like, flexing, and, like, I'm flexing as hard as I can. Like, there's got to be more here, dude.

[CJ]

Like, got to be more.

[Ben]

Like, maybe I just got to work harder, and I'm doing That and it's just like nothing's really happening. And then all you got.

[Evan]

Sometimes she gets some of the. The Botox muscles or whatever.

[Ben]

Can't you do that, dude? No, no.

[CJ]

The.

[Ben]

You can just. I thought you were talking about spongebob with the inflate arms, but, yeah, they do have that, dude. Remember that? Yeah, I do.

[CJ]

I do. Dude.

[Ben]

The inflate arms is literally Dalton's truck when he couldn't do a burnout.

[Gavin]

But, dude, when Dalton's truck is, like, rolling so much coal and it's so.

[CJ]

Angry and making all this noise and.

[Gavin]

The tires aren't spinning, and I'm like.

[CJ]

Dude, I mean, it was just weird.

[Gavin]

Because you know how, like, we've tried that. You know, we get the stock like when we got our gmc. I better go do a burnout. And you break stand until they pop. But it wasn't doing it. And it was literally like, look like a freaking steam engine.

[Evan]

A brand new set of 14 and a half wides.

[Gavin]

Yeah, yeah.

[Evan]

And our asphalt really is sticky. I think we were busting his balls when he used that as an excuse.

[Gavin]

That was the big factor.

[Ken]

I was just waiting on that drive shaft. I was like, either your drive shaft or your rear diff is just going.

[Evan]

To blow up or the tranny just lights on fire.

[CJ]

When he started actually lighting his exhaust on fire and it was blowing out the exhaust flames, I was like, it takes, like, one time for him to not turn the propane off and then just start driving, and he's gonna just start some random on fire. I was like, this is an actual safety hazard, bro.

[Evan]

Dude, at least our GMC actually will shoot a random flame out here in there. That's real. He has to have a propane tank and a spark plug.

[CJ]

I mean, I thought it was. It was cool, I'll give him that. But I was like, this seems like a fucking hazard. Not be safe.

[Evan]

I just want to see Mike cook a dog on it.

[Gavin]

We're gonna. I didn't realize when he started that thing up that it's like a flamethrower. It's not a couple pops.

[Ben]

Yeah, it was flaming pretty good. It was just bright.

[Ryan]

You should light up our next burn pile.

[Gavin]

Yeah, that would be cool.

[Evan]

Maybe take the truck with it.

[Ben]

So what are your thoughts on Dalton's truck, Evan?

[Evan]

I think the wrap is extremely controversial, and I think the build is awesome. It's like Micah's drift car or any other high performance rig where you use it. It's very fun. It's gonna break it's fun when you use it. I don't know. It's just how that kind of stuff is.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Evan]

So for him, not like having another vehicle is asinine. I think he should go buy a ten thousand dollar pickup that he can throw his dirt bike in the back and get around and do what he needs to do. Then he has a race truck. But to even think that that's a daily is delusional. And also his mechanics live across the entire country which is going to be inconvenient for him.

[Ken]

Before he did all his build, he wouldn't drive it in the winter because he didn't want it to get it rusty. Well that's just like you can't, you can't daily that though.

[Ryan]

I think his plan is to get enough money to buy another vehicle for winter.

[Evan]

I think his problem is is he's going to. To then start modding whatever percent. Like he just needs to just don't even start, don't even put wheels on it. As soon as you start it's just going to keep going.

[Gavin]

Crazy addiction.

[Ben]

I thought it was sick though. Like it is crazy hearing a diesel truck rev the way that those trucks were. The two commons that you know, obviously Dalton and their other one, like it's a totally different sound and it really is a sight.

[Ryan]

Like it's been working.

[Ben]

Yeah, it's been working. We know it works. I mean obviously with our gmc. Our GMC is not nearly as hopped up as either of those Cummins that were in the video.

[Evan]

But ours is actually built for drifting. Theirs are just built for crazy horsepower.

[Ben]

Yeah. Yeah. I felt bad for Kevin when it couldn't initially break the tires was because the thing was so new is like they just had rebuilt the motor and they didn't have much time to like put new tunes and all this stuff on. It just takes time when you're tuning something. Like it's not like you just throw the tune on. It's good. So like normally it's. It's not uncommon to have like 20 different revisions of tuning and they had like two. So like we're sitting there and he's like trying to spin and all of us are like this is just sad. And then obviously eventually they. They threw some new. A new tune on it and then it was ripping. But yeah, I felt bad for him there because I was like, I don't want this to be how it goes for you guys because I know it's not how it goes. Like I've seen what they've built.

[Gavin]

He Was stressing they got it.

[Ben]

Yeah. You could tell. He was like, this is not the time for this thing not to be working.

[Gavin]

He was like, to the full sand, Diesel, guys. You guys, like, can't leave till this is tuned right? Okay. He just, like, laid down, said that. I was like, yeah, I mean, what would you do if they left?

[Ben]

It would have been funny. We should have paid him to leave. Makes all this noise. It can't do a burnout, right? What was the story?

[CJ]

You were like, I got a funny ass story for you guys.

[Ryan]

Oh, dude. So it actually involves kind of all you guys. You know, now that relationships are getting a little more serious, Couple of the boys over here have proposed. I think all the girls are a little more on edge waiting for their proposal. At least. Speaking for me, I think Alondra is. And so we go to this wedding this weekend, and it's. You know, wedding is obviously a time you think about proposals. You know, it's just on your mind. And so we're all dressed up. We're taking pictures downtown because Alondra was in the wedding party, and we're standing there talking. She kind of got, like, really quiet for a little bit, and I didn't think much of it, and I was like, oh, whatever, you know, mine must be somewhere else. And I turn to my left and look down the street, and I go, oh, it's Dalton taking pictures. He's got us. He's got the mega lens, and he's taking pictures of his sister for prom. And just by chance. And so he. Then I see them. I go, hey, Dalton walks over, and then he goes, oh, I'll take some pictures of you guys. Take some pictures. I can feel Alondra is tense.

[Ben]

She's like, don't do this right here. Don't do this right here.

[Ryan]

Yeah, we take pictures. I go see a Dalton hug Jen. They leave, and she looks over, she goes, when I saw Dalton.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

I thought he. You were gonna propose.

[CJ]

Her friend's wedding.

[Ryan]

Yeah. At her friend's wedding. Which photographs.

[Gavin]

Which would have been psychotic.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Like, literally probably just steal the show.

[Ryan]

The worst proposal time ever.

[Gavin]

So, yeah, think if you guys weren't doing that and you were out doing something else, but you were dressed up, like, for something, then she actually would.

[Ryan]

Have thought that's what I'm saying. I feel like I have to have, like, a tracker on Dalton and then, like, warn her that it's not happening every time Dalton's around. He was even wearing a camo shirt, which he thought was a nice Touch that. For everybody else, they were, like, hidden in the woods, and he was wearing camo and whatever. And then for me, I just was like, if I could just stand on the street, we'll do it on the side camo.

[Ken]

Yeah, yeah.

[Ben]

Still throw.

[Evan]

Standing on the sidewalk.

[Ryan]

Anyway, so she was like, thank God you didn't propose. Then I was like, that would have been literally the most awful proposal time.

[Gavin]

Ever at somebody else's wedding.

[CJ]

I just see Dalton, you know, those.

[Evan]

Those glasses that have, like, the fake nose and the musk.

[Ben]

This is next one. At the end, he runs out of cosmic.

[CJ]

Ah, it.

[Evan]

Anyways, good job not stealing the light. Your friend's wedding.

[Ryan]

Yeah, it's like her best friend's wedding, too.

[CJ]

Yeah. Be pretty savage. Apparently, there's a bunch of rules, you know, when you can propose, when. When you can get married, how close you can propose to somebody.

[Gavin]

They're all. They're all unwritten. It's kind of confusing.

[CJ]

Yeah, but they're all just chicks being chicks. Like, who cares?

[Gavin]

I'm glad that they'll at least verbally say that. They usually don't want a public proposal.

[Ryan]

If, like, at a baseball game, if.

[Gavin]

They don't tell you and you do it. Yeah, whatever. But if they're like, hey, I don't want a proposal, and then you do it at a baseball game on the jumbotron, she's not gonna like it.

[Ryan]

I think that'd be an awful proposal time. Like, you're at a stadium or maybe like a concert.

[Evan]

There's probably, like. But that. Love the sport and that actually.

[Gavin]

Exactly.

[Ryan]

That's true. That's true.

[Evan]

Different folks.

[Ryan]

I shouldn't speak for everybody.

[Ken]

Be the most awkward thing if they said no on the Jumbotron and just awkwardly have to back away.

[Gavin]

Oh, yeah.

[Ryan]

How do you recover from that?

[Gavin]

I don't.

[Ryan]

I mean, I know what's happening.

[Gavin]

I think you should turn your Xbox.

[Ryan]

Off and just start over, you guys. See, speaking of turning off your xbox, that they delayed GTA another year.

[Evan]

It's delayed six months, I believe, right from October.

[Ryan]

Oh, you're right. The fall to the spring. Whatever. A year from now is about when.

[CJ]

It'S gonna come wild.

[Ben]

Dude, it seems like a video game coming out at the beginning of summer.

[Ryan]

Isn'T the best time.

[Ben]

Isn't the best time. Kids are screwed. Yeah, I mean, the kids are not probably gonna care at all, but the hype.

[Ken]

Real video.

[Ben]

That shit look real. It looks like you hired actors. Like, I mean, the graphics are insane. A new storyline. It looks awesome.

[Ryan]

I Saw that the Burj Khalifa or whatever, you know, the tallest building in Dubai took nine years and cost $1.6 billion to build. And currently GTA is at $2 billion in 13 years. So GTA is more expensive than the Burj Khalifa skyscraper for a piece of software.

[Ben]

Yeah, but that. Dude, that software is going to make so much money and they're going to run that game for probably another 20 years after real. No, it's like GTA 7 will take so long to make that they're going to be running GTA 6 for probably 25.

[Evan]

We're going to be retired.

[Gavin]

Yeah, yeah.

[Evan]

When the next GTA hype.

[Gavin]

So what I'm thinking, like, realistically, you know, they push. Push it back six months now. I'm like, how crazy is it to think that what if, when it GTA 6 comes out, that there needs to be a new console?

[Ryan]

Yeah, you're right. I mean that's.

[Gavin]

What if the PS5 can't handle it?

[Ben]

Yeah. Though I know by then I have.

[Ryan]

Like, maybe that's why. Yeah, they're delaying. Well, when did new consoles come on?

[Gavin]

Probably fall, but I used one or. Yeah, like, they come. They keep making it crazier and then they're like, dude, what if we push this back three months for the new.

[Ben]

I don't know.

[Gavin]

They'll make it for PS5 and Xbox One.

[Evan]

I feel like at some point, I don't know, technology is always getting better, but like, the newest consoles are like, pretty insane.

[Ben]

They've been saying that since the PS2.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ben]

How could this get any better? I used to think that with the Xbox 360.

[Evan]

I mean, I guess you're right. I guess I can.

[Gavin]

I'm not. And I'm not arguing what you said. I think like, you know how powerful some like, phones now and like some of the, like iPads and obviously computers that PS5 and Xbox just seems like a good 8 out of 10.

[Ryan]

I think they heard Evan's idea to like integrate all the different sports in it and I think that's what delayed them.

[Gavin]

Dude, I've been thinking about that.

[Ryan]

And then I was thinking, do you even need a storyline? Is it just like those movies where you just like, you're just playing real life and it's just. You just start out as a character and you're just trying to.

[Gavin]

Yeah, it's like open world.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Gavin]

Nothing. Do whatever.

[Ryan]

What's that shit? Roblox or something like that?

[Gavin]

Roblox. Well, so that's Iplayer. Yeah. I didn't Want to compare it to that? And I didn't bring it up when you brought it up last time, but it is like Roblox. Like, you can basically make any game slash. Like you can make them and play them. And like, you can. Roblox is just like unlimited interesting. There's just like the most random. I only played it for like a day and I was like, all right, I'm too old for this. But you can do anything in it.

[CJ]

I gotta get back into Xbox.

[Ben]

Dude, you played one time with us and you did terribly and you haven't touched it.

[Gavin]

Was it really only one time?

[Ben]

It was brutal, dude. It was probably the worst performance I've ever seen someone gave.

[CJ]

But no, I don't know how much.

[Ben]

Worse you could have done. You got like one kill. One kill on Nuketown playing Domination Ev.

[CJ]

How is that possible?

[Evan]

That's pretty bad. How is that every time you spawn through a random grenade and you should have.

[Gavin]

You could run around with a pistol with your eyes closed shooting it.

[CJ]

Oh, Mike. And, oh, Mike.

[Ben]

It was actually mind boggling. But maybe there's something wrong with like his TV or something. The way he set it up.

[Ryan]

You have bad Internet latency or some shit.

[Evan]

Maybe he needs a monitor.

[Ryan]

I can't.

[Gavin]

I was going to say I could see. Ben's got a 75 inch TV. His couch is about 12ft away and he's sitting like this.

[CJ]

It's exactly.

[Gavin]

It's got to have a modern leg, bro.

[Ben]

You should still get more than one kill.

[Ryan]

We used to play on the projector in my apartment, which probably had the worst ever. But we did get a victory one a couple times on it. It was so lit. Everybody's in there partying and they got one guy playing Fortnite.

[Gavin]

That is pretty sweet.

[Ryan]

It was cool. And then like, people are kind of watching. And then it gets exciting towards the end, you know, like, you can tell the pressure is building. It was cool.

[CJ]

What do you guys think of Hayden Deegan kind of pulling a sneaky on his teammate, running them off the track to win the championship?

[Ben]

I think it was the right move. That's like an unsaid racer mentality right there is like you're on a team until you're racing at one and two for first.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

And there's a championship on the line.

[Gavin]

You see like Duke Gomez posted like a tick tock about it. And he's like. He's like, you guys, there's millions of dollars on the line. He's like, I would have punted my grandma off of the highest berm for. For a chance at 10th in that race or something. And I'm like, yeah, he definitely pushed him off, but it's like. And also what was on the race, it's.

[CJ]

I think it's solely because it was him that did it. And if roles were reversed, like, people would be celebrating, like, his teammate for doing that to him.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

It was a legendary moment. Like, in 20 years when they're talking about Hayden's career in a documentary, they're going to, like, bring that moment up.

[Ryan]

I'm honestly, I'm just surprised that people were surprised because Deegan's a winner. Like, he's the type of guy to do it. And so it was like I was surprised there was such an uproar about it, but maybe you're right. Maybe there was just an uproar because it's him.

[Evan]

What do you think he's gonna do for the last race since he won the championship?

[Ryan]

It's kind of such a weird thing.

[Ben]

I just wouldn't race if I was him. Why even risk it?

[Evan]

I suppose I kind of feel like he's gonna go out there and just freaking win it.

[Gavin]

Yeah. Just because, I mean, that'd be the.

[Ben]

I mean, if you're gonna race it.

[Evan]

The problem is is the target that he has on his back. Like, I would imagine that everyone would love to take him out. So he already won. He's gonna come out.

[CJ]

Yeah, but I don't know. You think they would. You think they would take him out at least, buddy.

[Evan]

That he took out nothing on Davies, Right?

[Gavin]

Yeah. Is the next race east and west?

[Evan]

I don't know. I don't know exactly. I just know there's one more race.

[Gavin]

Hopefully I'll be watching.

[Ben]

Yeah, this will be out.

[Evan]

I would think that, yeah. If Davies even sees him on the track, he's gonna. Why wouldn't he?

[CJ]

Dude, I was reading the comments on a tick tock of I can't remember if they were on inside or against it. Against what he did, but because it's so polarizing.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[CJ]

Like, if you scroll at least on my tick tock feed, there's so many people just like, praising it and then just bitching about it, which is crazy. Which is also, like, what you want to, like, reach the mainstream, like, as much as, like, he has. But I don't know. I thought it was crazy. One comment said the fall of motocross needs to be studied. And I was what? This dude is delusional. This is like the first time I've ever Even cared about what's happening in motocross in the last five years. Like, it's like, it's stories like this that just get, like, everyone interested in, like, such a niche sport, which is motocross. You know, it's like it's blending just like, kind of mainstream, which is just like, people loving, just like, the rivalry and just like, I don't. Drama and the character that is. And then, like, how niche motocross racing is.

[Ryan]

It's like with all sports, you hardly care about the sport you're watching unless you're, like, really rooting for your team. Like, pretty rarely do you watch a sport just because you like the sport. Like, you're invested in the drama or a team, like, carrying through or something like that, you know? And in motocross, like, he is the team.

[CJ]

No, I think it's cool. Yeah, I think it's good for this.

[Gavin]

He works quick. He, like, I don't know. Three days later posted on a Snapchat that he bought a Lambo. Yeah, that's pretty sweet. He just goes Lambo at 19.

[CJ]

Bought it out from underneath us.

[Ben]

Yeah, I was talking. I was talking to that guy and.

[Gavin]

He'S like, that was that.

[Ben]

Sorry, already sold. Or he said he took a deposit on it and the guy can't pick it up for three weeks. It's some motor supercross racer. I was like, huh.

[CJ]

All right.

[Ben]

Well, that sucks.

[Gavin]

Wow.

[CJ]

He's championship. Check the cash.

[Ben]

Three weeks later, I see the Lambo on his story. I'm like.

[Gavin]

That'S wild.

[Ryan]

Checks out. Yeah, it's pretty sick because he's got both his R8 and his Lambo now. I saw he posted a video of them in the garage.

[Ben]

Baller move, man.

[Ryan]

As a baller move. You guys been watching Black Mirror yet?

[Gavin]

Haven't watched it yet. Is it crazy?

[Ryan]

Yeah, yeah. There's some episodes that suck. There's like the first two or three suck, and I'm a Black Mirror fan. But then the last couple, like, the last three are really good. But there's one where a lady has, like, she goes brain dead, basically. And so there's a subscription company that will fix your brain for free and you just got to pay a subscription. But they kept jacking up the price on our spoiler alerts. They kept jacking up the price on her, and then eventually they, like, couldn't afford to pay the thing, so she had to go to the ads version. So you'd be like, talking to her and she'd be like, oh, yeah, I'm Going to go for a run and then she just like pop into like, buy Brooks running shoes for the. Whatever this is going to happen.

[CJ]

Neuralink.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I was like, I need that dude pop into an ad right now.

[Gavin]

Made it hilarious that you were telling it, of all people, but dude, that's wild. Seems like also something that you'd see in Family Guy.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I mean, it's outrageous, but it's probably true.

[CJ]

It's probably. It's probably like the reality what's to come. It's pretty wild to think that like Neural Link is able to do what they are able to do. Like you just put a chip in your mind and like think about in 10 years or 15 years or 20 years, like how advanced that's gonna be.

[Gavin]

Throwing a fat tune on.

[CJ]

I just imagine. Yeah, I just imagine like the day that you can like just see projectors and then you can like just watch things even like with your sunglasses. Like Mark Zuckerberg was talking about that. Like, that's probably like five years out with like the meta glasses that you can like sick. You can see projections that only you can see when you're wearing the glasses. And then you can just like leave it there. So like, if I were to walk into my office right now, I would just see like a bunch of stuff on the wall.

[Ryan]

Oh, that's so.

[CJ]

Actually, that's not actually there, but it'll just stay there. It'll just stay there.

[Ken]

It's basically like a less bulky version of like the Apple Vision can somewhat do that, but like it's.

[Ben]

Who's gonna walk around with that on there, you know?

[Ryan]

That'd be pretty cool. You could like graffiti, like if you had open world stuff, you could like graffiti for people. But speaking of the tune thing in the show, you could do that. Like, you could turn up your happiness or like turn. Turn up your. That could be useful, like satisfaction or something like that or whatever.

[CJ]

So it's like a stark. It's like a dirt bike.

[Gavin]

I actually have seen. I seen a dude wearing Apple Vision or maybe like Meta Quest, whatever, and he used it to spray paint this giant mural. It was like an experiment. He said it was hard, but it turned out insane. Like something you couldn't do because it.

[CJ]

Gave you like the guidelines.

[Gavin]

Yeah, something you couldn't do freehand.

[Ben]

I guess it's like Chat GPT in your head for Neuralink. Probably.

[CJ]

Yeah. I mean, CJ's on the chat GPT.

[Ben]

Chat GPT is insane. I'm like pretty late to that, to that ball game. But I would imagine any kid in school is using it. Let's say you take a picture of your math homework. You normally have to show your work. It'll show you the work. Like, you know any. You could always cheat in math, but you, you know, the calculator didn't really get you anywhere because you couldn't show your work. You just take a picture of that. It'll show you the work. But I mean, you can literally take a picture of your truck and then put some wheels in. Say, show me what these wheels look like.

[CJ]

That's how you did that.

[Gavin]

Oh, that's cool.

[Ryan]

Shut up.

[Ben]

Yes, it is. I can take a picture of the front of the house. Say, put landscaping in. And it will do different. I could change that. Change this. And it will do it. Label this. Where can I get them? Like, it is unbelievable. And I'm just raving about it. It's crazy. But the thing is, is, like, everyone is way, way, way, way smart. It's like the ultimate tool that I've ever seen, honestly. And I'd imagine kids are using it, and you'd be stupid not to, like, why wouldn't you use it? But it almost makes like you don't really need to know how to do much or, like, know that much anymore. You can literally, like, Googling is one thing because you got to research and click around and kind of find information. This compiles information and puts it into, like, a very direct, easy way to just get the gist of it. It's crazy.

[CJ]

It is crazy how something like that really does even the playing fields of, like, intelligence.

[Ben]

Yeah, But I'd imagine the smart people be able to use it even more to their advantage.

[CJ]

Well, I mean, like, anything, though. Like, information's kind of always been out there, but it's how can you have access or acquire that information? And it does seem like the more intelligent people have just access or. Or acquired more information, and then they just continue to build and get more intelligent.

[Gavin]

And there's the intelligent side, and then there's also the business side. It's like, well, how does someone get so successful before all the AI? They'd be like, well, I hired, you know, this guy to do this for me, and I hired this group of people to do this for me. It's the same thing. You're just really smart at how to hire people, or you're really smart at how to prompt AI to help you make money.

It is crazy to think that how many jobs are going to get replaced by AI? I know that everyone Says that. But when you think about it, like, that landscape designer just did it in 30 seconds.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Instead of having to use CAD or whatever, the drawing software, if they can populate it.

[Ben]

Unbelievable. Even, like, for stock. So, like, is Microsoft stock a buy today, right now? And it will compile everything, and then it'll, you know, say a few different things, and then It'll be like, 17 analysts say buy, five say hold, and to say sell. And then it's like the. The stock projected price in 12 months will be this. So, like, it is crazy. It is crazy versus, like, someone who would have to research all that. Or you obviously pay a financial advisor, but even a financial advisor, I don't know if they would be up to date on every single second at every single second of the day when you ask them this.

[CJ]

You know, Right.

[Ben]

Like, it is. It is truly crazy.

[Gavin]

But it's crazy how fast it went from just a little help to, like, unlimited help. Like, I think in Photoshop, like, it used to take forever to cut someone out.

[Ryan]

Oh, dude.

[Gavin]

So then you get a little help on certain things, and then. Then all of a sudden, you could. It would do it yourself. And now all of a sudden, you can do it in Snapchat on your phone. You can make stickers. I mean, change the background, create your whole photo. It does everything for you. Versus before.

[Ben]

I remember making a thumbnail even three years ago.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ben]

So much more work.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Than making a thumbnail now. I mean, just due to, like, the tracing and the cutting and like, you. You had to do almost everything yourself. Whereas now it's just so. I mean, the AI tools can do pretty much what you want. It's wild. So, I mean, it's almost easier now to do a lot of things, but at the same time, everyone's got that same playing field. So that's kind of what I'm saying is, like, the smarter people will probably use the tool better than Right. You know, can still use other things besides that tool, but. Yeah. Pretty cool.

[Ryan]

But using your own line with you. The cream rises to the top.

[Ben]

Yeah, the cream always rises to the top. Top boys, as Grandpa Ron would say.

[CJ]

Yep.

[Ben]

After he beats you in pool or cards or race golf, whatever it be. But thank you guys for listening. I think that's it for today.

[Ryan]

Yeah.
