A
When you got haters double down on it, I'd do a naked video next time, but at least you guys were, like, ripped and could get chicks. I was just a tub of goo. And then you guys labeled the videos fat kid.
B
You know, he sees the money coming in, but he sees the money going out, and he's like, what the hell is wrong with you guys? Right? Somebody just hated Jake. Yeah. And then he dug up everything about Jake's life. Personal Jake's dad's life. Like my girlfriend that I wild.
C
I know I shouldn't do this, but I was looking over CJ's shoulder onto his phone, and he is shopping for Black Raptors.
D
I just saw it on my marketplace thing, and I had to check it out, you know, see how the market's doing. Playing bone stock. Black Raptor for sure. Market's still strong, but it just.
B
Cj, you were the face of Black Raptors.
E
It'd just be so tough, though. You'd have to do all your mods again. Yeah, the windshield wipers and the antenna.
D
I do have quite a bit of time into it.
F
You think you have enough time to, like, do that to another one?
D
Yeah, I'd probably hire it up.
F
Oh, you forgot about the. The. The replacement tires, too.
C
Oh, wow.
E
Even aftermarket tires?
D
No, no, I just replaced them with exactly what it came with. Oh.
E
OEM replacement rolls a lot better.
B
Why mess with perfection?
D
Exactly. Why would you.
B
Oh, we got going on here. Cowboy Jacob, what's up?
D
What the hell?
A
Special occasion.
B
Are you coming in?
A
I'm hopping in.
B
Sure. Usually it's at the end of podcast.
A
The beginning this time.
B
What the hell we got going?
A
After reading that comment section last night, it got me feeling like a rock star. So I decided.
D
Oh, God.
B
It's going all to your head.
C
All right, cool. Now that I got you here, we just got an email in today. We get a lot of fun emails. I'm not out who said it, but here's the email, and it's very odd. This is a dad talking about his son who got him into the videos, and it just says, jake is super annoying. We wish you'd quit putting him in your videos. Other than that, we love all your videos and merch. My son turned us on to your channel years ago, and we watch them every week.
A
Wow, dude, that's hard.
B
Hey, dude, welcome.
C
Hey.
B
Welcome back to Earth, huh? I bet it was nice while it lasted, huh?
D
You know what's crazy, though, is there was a lot of other comments on there. Just, like, really praise.
C
Yeah, for sure.
D
Just sucking your wiener, man.
E
Yeah.
D
And then there's that guy.
B
He went out of his way to email it to us to make sure that we saw and saved a comment.
C
Other than that, you guys are killing it.
B
Besides, was it at least not in the subject line?
C
It was in the main.
B
Like, a lot of times when younger children who don't know how to run email will email us, they will just put their entire message in the subject line a lot. That's how you know how old they are.
C
Yeah. I just get such a kick out of them. We get so, so many emails, and they're different than a dm. You know, someone's like, hey, can I get personal? Can I get a free dirt bike on a dm? It's just like, kind of shape up their whole email and give you a story behind it.
D
It's more formal.
C
Yeah. And I love. They'll include their address and everything.
D
You can send the bike here.
C
Just let me know when it's on its way.
E
I don't know, man. I think we'd probably give more stuff away to more people, but just every time we do, they're so not happy about it. Like, everybody's reactions are so plain.
B
Yeah. Yeah. We got to start giving them away to people that email us.
E
Yeah, there we go.
D
Then they would probably be. And they'd be stoked or they wouldn't say anything. They'd just be like, yeah, they just get it.
B
Thanks. It's like going on Amazon and buying something, but instead going to C boy's email.
C
Great.
B
I'll write it here.
F
I think at least, like, once a week, I get an email from a kid asking how to work on his dirt bike.
C
Oh, yeah.
B
The one we used to get so often was, what size dirt bike should I get?
E
Yeah.
C
Still to this day. And those ones are a little more fun to answer. Like, I love when they include their size and their age. Do you answer them sometimes? Because it's like, as quick as just being like, I don't know, man. I. I start on a 125, so.
B
That'S why all of our merch drops are late. You're answering questions on email?
C
Yeah, 100%, bro.
F
I see one of those.
C
I mean, like, yeah, like, what, Am I not allowed to answer the emails?
B
No, you can do whatever you want with your time. I'm just. I mean, surprising that you answer all those emails, I think.
C
Holy never.
D
I don't know.
B
I don't know how many you answer, but answering a kid that asked what size dirt bike he should get because.
C
Like, I think it's more than that. Like makes their day. Like they responded.
B
No, you're definitely a good guy.
E
Yeah.
B
You're 100% in the right. Like everyone listening is probably like, oh, Ben's a douche for not answering those kids emails.
D
They're 100% saying that.
C
Yeah, but it's like more important things on the line. That is for sure.
E
Whenever anybody.
B
You guys want to have a video on Thursday. Maybe if I was answering all those emails.
E
So whenever anybody asked me, you know, what size dirt bike they should get, I say, oh, don't worry about that.
B
Just get a quad.
D
Yeah, you can just get a full size right from the start. Put a block of wood behind the thumb throttle and renegade 800.
A
That's how I started.
D
I got.
A
My first squad was 450 right out of the gate.
D
You had a block of wood underneath.
A
No, they have just like a screw, right?
C
Yeah.
E
Because they're high tech machines.
D
See, I, I don't think about that because I didn't start on a four wheeler but a 450, right?
F
Yeah.
D
Right?
E
Yeah. Jake, you, you are a little bit of a star. Everybody is. Honestly, I think Mike's drift car.
D
Of course, Mike you not Mike, just as you have.
C
Everybody is.
B
You're not just a star.
D
You're just not just a sergeant Mike's drift car.
A
As I was walking up the stairs, I read a comment that, that really just posted. It goes, I don't think I've ever seen Mike's car survive anything ever. And I was like, that's very true.
D
It is true. It is true.
C
It's died.
D
Have you checked out, dude?
C
Yeah, I checked it out.
B
It does.
E
Not on fire anymore.
C
Not on fire anymore.
A
So then it's good.
E
Like that really was the only problem with some old oil started on fire or is there a bigger problem?
B
Well, it's not leaking oil.
E
There's.
C
There's still a concerning amount of oil is coming out of the. The valve cover. You know, fills up my catch can in like two sessions. I don't know.
F
Yeah, I mean you least have oil. That's a start.
A
The cool thing that's been working is like every time we go drifting or do something else with your car, you usually think it fixes itself and you never. And then you just go do it again and then something else happens.
C
There's just so many problems. It fixes itself. You guys have heard me. It's cut. I don't think that it fixes itself. It's just like I just don't have time. And then.
B
Well, yeah, you're busy.
C
And then I did. The reason it started on fire. I remember asking. I was. You're like, all right, we're free to. To rip it on Tuesday. And I was like, can we do Wednesday? I just need one day to, like, give the car some love and kind of attack this catch can situation.
B
I think, to be fair, Mike, your drift car is the greatest drift car.
E
Exactly.
B
That our channel could ever ask.
C
Well, yeah, but, you know, like, it's so entertaining.
B
It's so entertaining. You never know what's gonna happen when you turn that key.
A
It's generated more laughs than any car, I guarantee, of any drift car ever made.
E
And that's coming from a Mustang driver. And a lot of people laugh at them.
A
No, they're usually not laughing. They're screaming and running. That's what they're doing.
C
Yeah. I don't know. So many comments are people like, take that to the scrap yard.
B
But at this point.
C
At this point, it's just a meme.
D
But the would take 30 grand.
C
So you pose a great question. Obviously, I'm not gonna take it to.
B
The scrap yard, bro.
C
It's just when it. When it started on fire and it was, like, potentially could end up in a giant, charred, rolling chassis.
D
Would have been funny.
C
No. Yeah.
E
Not funny.
C
No. I would have thought that would have sucked. Like, what a horrible waste of money.
F
You got insurance on that thing?
D
No, I don't think you can insure. I don't really think you can. If it burns down on a track or hits a wall on track, I don't think the insurance is going to step in.
F
It's just a 350Z on a curvy driveway.
C
You of all people will know how this works when there's a video of it. You're effed.
B
Yeah, he's kind of got a little bit of, like, insurance fraud looking his eye.
A
Yeah, he's got that smile back there. Like, that plaid's getting awfully ready.
D
Remember his Barney shirt?
B
Tax shirt Fraud, bro. Who the wears that?
A
Legends guys.
E
Like, no, we do not.
B
Oh, my gosh.
C
Oh.
B
I took a photo the other day. So we had a meeting with our accountant, and our accountant's a G. Just old enough where he doesn't quite understand what the we're doing ever with, like, you know, he sees the money coming in, but he sees the money going out, and he's like, what the hell is. Is wrong with you guys? Right. So this is a picture of CJ explaining To him, what Mike just purchased, which was the skate park that we were putting in the back of our building over here. And this is CJ explaining to him why Mike justified buying a city skate park.
D
Yeah, he was. They were, like, trying to, like, listen to what I was telling them, but I don't think they really watched the vids either. So, like, I was, like, showing them some stuff, and I was like, oh.
B
And then we should check out this building.
D
And they're like, oh, there's more. Like, they were just confused. I'm like, yeah, so this is the drift track just wrapped up on that.
B
Yeah. No, he looks at it. He looks at me and he goes, this got to be 100 grand worth of asphalt. I go, 250. He goes, yeah.
D
And then he's like, you guys need to get gates.
B
I was like, yeah, we need a lot of things. Just keep an eye out for one idiot running around in a bum shirt. That's what we. That's what we worry about right now. Jake, you wear the same shirt every.
D
Day and you had to look down, Dude, I literally.
A
I. Yeah, I do wear the same shirt every day. I'm just envisioning how your accountant goes through your books, and he's like, 10 grand in duct tape. And he's like, yeah, that's normal. Just like, not fishy or something.
B
It's all for business.
C
Yeah.
B
Which is like, the wild part is, like, every transaction is wild as it is. You know, it's making some kind of video. And then when the video comes out on Thursday, it makes a lot more sense.
C
Of course.
A
Cover all your bases.
B
I texted him this morning. I said, hey, I just pulled out X amount of cash from the bank account. So you're going to see that transaction and categorize it for something. I don't know what he's going to put it under, but it's for three fake Lamborghinis.
C
But that was like.
B
I was like, yeah, just. Just pick where you see that fit.
C
One of the things that came up in the last meeting was like, yeah, it doesn't have to be super formal, but just. Yeah, give me a heads up when you pull cash out for stuff like that.
D
Yeah.
B
Because otherwise, then he'll text me at the end of the month when he's like, going through. Is like, what is this? And I'm like, oh, fuck. I text the boys like, what did we pull that for again?
A
No idea.
B
Yeah, no, it was. It was funny, though. He was just shaking his head like, there's seriously something wrong with you guys. But he always says like, hey, I can be the passenger. You guys are driving the car and you're doing something right. So I trust you enough to not intervene. But I'm going to make some suggestions like maybe you should like take this.
C
Off ramp for slow down.
B
Yeah. Or slow down.
E
Money come in, money go out.
A
That's for sure how business works. It's the only model that's true. Money go.
C
I don't know what quite era this was, but let's say it was 2018. Jake show up after working his 90, 80, 90 hour weeks and go, that's the crazy thing about money. Run out of it. Just got to work and make more works. And we're like, yeah, he does have a point.
A
Get to a point. Yeah, you spend more and you make. Then you got problems.
C
Yeah. That was like the era of Jake. That was like creating some silly goal of if I could buy an Amazon package every day of the month. That's a good goal.
A
As a teenager. That's a great goal.
C
Yeah.
A
Now we got bills, so that sucks.
B
Speaking of spending more than you make, what do you guys think about Hoonigan filing for bankruptcy?
C
Kind of wild.
E
Wild.
B
Well, $1.2 billion.
D
What are they spending their money on? I saw that. I'm like, what they buy?
B
Well, so Hoonigan got bought out by Wheel Pros.
E
So Wheel Pros went under Hoonigan because they stole their name.
B
Yeah. Like four years ago. Maybe they sold, I did not know wheels and then Wheel Pros took the Hoonigan name. They rebranded like the entire company. Cuz then they, they own like 25 different companies underneath Wheel Pros and Hoonigan was just one of them. And. And then they like rebranded to Hoonigan, maybe thinking that it was better brand for the. Whatever they were doing.
D
Like what were they buying? What were they even doing?
F
They have like 30 different wheel brands. It's a.
D
So they're selling wheels and tires basically.
B
Yeah. They own like American Force.
D
Really?
B
Yeah.
F
Black Rhino Fuel.
C
Oh, wow.
A
So it's just like a bunch of businesses.
E
Yeah. Yeah. I'm going to try to find this.
D
They weren't necessarily making videos.
B
Yeah. So like when everyone says like, oh, Hoonigan filed for bankruptcy. It wasn't like Ken Blocks Hoonigan that he, that he sold the T shirt brand or the real pros. Yeah. It was essentially which kind of sucks that it like tainted the, the Hoonigan name, I guess.
C
But you guys watch like Donut Media. Yeah. It's like kind of similar to that Too. Like, Donut just got bought out by.
D
Private equity kind of just recently.
C
Yeah.
B
And then the two guys, the last, like, year.
C
Oh.
D
Then those guys left after. Okay. Yeah.
C
Yeah. Then James Pumphrey, like, started his own channel. And it's just exciting because you got to watch it. You got to check it out, because he was, like, one of the best dude. Yeah. Just excited for all. All of them.
A
Yeah, it is.
B
I mean, the same thing that happened to Hoonigan. So corporate comes in, and then they just try and squeeze every little dollar out of this business. Right.
C
So a manufacturing plant. Right, Right.
B
So they look at, like, the videos, and I'm sure they're just like, all right, what are the cheapest videos to make that get the most views? Let's just triple down on that. So that's why, like, Hoonigan started doing all the this versus that.
E
Yeah.
B
Know where it's just like, Drag Race.
C
And then that's cost him nothing.
B
And then you saw everyone leave Hoonigan. And then the same thing.
E
All their talent. Yeah, yeah.
B
All the talent leaves Hoonigan. And then the same thing happened to Donut Media. So it's so interesting that, like, private equity just clearly doesn't work in a space like YouTube.
D
Yeah. I mean, the reason that, like, those channels were working was because of the people running it.
E
Yeah.
D
You know, and then even if you keep the same people on camera, but someone else starts running that channel, it just shows it goes to. And then also, the people that are having to be on camera doing all that stuff, they get over it. They're like, I don't want to do this anymore. And they hit the road. That literally has happened now twice. If you look at both those examples.
C
I mean, probably many other times too, for instance, but I'm sure there's more.
D
But I can't think of. I can't think of any off top my head.
E
But, yeah, those two are definitely the most recent. So I. I did find what wheel pros, S.L. hoonigan bought. American Force, American Racing, Asante, Black Rhino. So there's actually, like, some big names in here that are still working. Fairway alloys, Foose Fuel, Gorilla Helo, KMC wheels, Motegi Moto Metal, MSA off road, A couple other ones. I don't know. Smitty built XD Wheels, Morimoto ZBros, Ready Lift, Teraflex. I mean, like, and Throttle.
C
As far as wheels, they've got, like.
E
A bunch of stuff. And what basically is what I understood is they bought all this stuff and. And then People pulled back spending from like how they were spending in 2020.
C
Such a big monopoly that it affected them across the board.
E
Yeah. Once one domino starts to fall, then the whole thing just starts to collapse. But they were building like distribution centers and all that type of stuff. And that's why it's chapter 11 bankruptcy. So basically they still get to run their business. They just restructure their debt and keep moving.
D
They were trying to be like custom offsets.
E
It's true.
C
Here I am learning. I didn't know there was different types of bankruptcy, but it makes sense.
E
BBS Wheels has declared bankruptcy five times since 2007.
D
By the way, when I say they were trying to be like custom, I meant custom offsets for Fitment Industries. I meant like building out the distribution center system. That system.
B
Yeah.
A
Not the whole going into.
D
Yeah. I just wanted to clarify.
A
Good clarification.
D
Friends with them, so.
C
But think of all the trucks on the road with aftermarket wheels. 75% of them have to be under.
E
Those under wheel pros, which is pretty crazy. Dude, I feel like I got to get a drift missile though. Going back to the drift cap.
C
Yeah, you gotta.
E
Please do I feel left out. Even if mine's really junky and I get made fun of for it sucking like I haven't had that. My Hummer or my standup jet ski.
C
You know you're going to buy a car and I love it. It's going to be a missile. It'll be whatever. And it's going to drift circles around my car.
E
So I don't know if you will. Dude, you got pretty damn good at drifting.
C
I guess. Like I have the power, but I'm just saying, like you're going to get. I don't know what do you just get a Corvette, please?
B
Yeah, get a Corvette C6.
C
Corvette or C5. Doesn't have to be a C6.
D
What do you mean by missile?
C
Missile cars you give. Give.
A
A proper missile is just a car. Missile just takes a beating. Then you throw it away in the shed.
D
I don't know.
C
It's a drift car. That is not your.
E
It's not Jake's car.
C
Not your competition car.
A
Yeah, it's just like your. Your beater all around. All you guys should get cars. I don't know why you have a track.
D
Well, it just got completed.
A
Yeah, it's true.
D
That is true. Working on looking? Yeah.
C
But yeah, I just saw like a clean C5 for 13 grand.
E
Damn. You could buy three of those instead of your car.
F
So if that's a clean one. How much does, like, a completely thrashed one cost?
C
Two, do your math.
E
Sorry, I thought it was 30.
B
Mike will correct you. Well, that's if you're three grand thrown.
C
Around so much, it's like, yeah, Micah sold his left ball for this car.
B
How much are you into that car?
C
30 grand.
B
But you've got it, like, worked on quite a bit.
F
30 grand to buy it. Plus how much money do you have? Like, in.
C
It was 30 grand to get it here, plus the new seats and wheel that I ordered and, like, the E brake.
F
And then you had an SRD for a while.
C
True. But that was only like 1500 bucks.
D
You got to be in 35, 36 grand on that thing.
E
Maybe.
C
I don't think I am.
A
But then he built the Subaru, you know, could have bought another drift go.
C
I'll talk about that.
E
So I don't want to talk about the Subaru negatively, but can we debut? Can we talk about that here? Or is that, like, a video thing, too that we don't want to spoil yet?
C
Yes, we can put pictures of it.
B
Videos of it, and nobody makes fun.
E
Of Mike for blowing through money. Okay, let's. Let's be proud of him for having a cool car in this one.
B
Are people. Are people making fun of Mike for blowing money?
C
Yeah, usually not. But, like, I know I wasn't.
E
You know what I mean?
B
No, no, no. I was not making fun. I love how Mike spends money.
E
I know.
B
I would never tell him. Stop.
D
I was just.
B
I was just saying, you better have your facts straight, otherwise he will correct you.
E
Yeah, you're right.
B
Correction, M.
C
You can't have your facts straight on the Subaru because I'm not going to tell you how much it costs. Just not. I'm just straight up not going to.
E
It is nice to at least see it back in the driveway. Dude, it is gorgeous.
C
Drives like a dream. It's a show car. That's it. It's just perfect. It's flawless right now.
F
It's still yellow, but you did a fantastic job.
C
Thank you, Ken.
E
No, what. What he said the yellow is insane ins.
D
I love the color of cars and stuff, but, like, Ken and Ryan care so much about the color of cars. Like, I love out of all the stuff done to it, I mean, you're the same color.
E
The color is, like, one of the coolest parts about it.
C
As I was shopping or do shop on Facebook, marketplace and this and that. I care a little bit more of the exterior color. And you and Ben are very interior color type Fellas. Which is kind of just fun, you know, like, if you're looking at a car, you're like, okay, it can be this exterior color, but it's got to have this interior, which makes car shopping a lot harder. But I appreciate it. Like the interior, your gtr. Not very many.
D
Yeah, no, I guess I was just saying, like, whenever you guys get cars, you're like, very, like, thought out about the color. Like you and Ken specifically. Yeah. Cuz and like, whenever anyone pulls a new car in, you're always like, oh, I love the color. Like, that's always you guys. It's kind of a.
B
The Randy.
D
It's like.
B
I've heard Randy say that so many.
D
Dark green or know.
A
No, it's more like Galaxy Gravy Lightning.
B
Oh, I love the Galaxy Gravy Lightning.
A
Just like this insane name. I'm like, that's just blue.
B
Right.
C
I would definitely put myself in that same category. And I'm. Now I'm thinking like, Ben's got a white truck, a white Lambo.
D
Yeah.
C
Pretty basic black gtr, white Evo.
E
I feel like it's just like the only general personalization, like when a. When a. When a guy pulls in and he just bought a new, like, truck, and if he's got one that's not white, black, or silver, like, he made a decision to not buy a white, black or silver car. Yeah. You go, oh, wow, I can appreciate that. That wasn't one of, you know, 10. That's Corvette owner in me specs.
F
It's something crazy. Like 80 or 90% of the cars in the road are either white, black, or silver. So it's like when you see something that's not that shade, it just. It's like, oh, that looks nice.
A
I don't really care about the color. I just want it faster, I guess.
D
To me, like, the color doesn't matter that much. It's more so like what was done after the fact that made it custom or personalized. Like, if you got it lower down on some nice wheels and you got a. Yeah, no, but like, you look at my gtr, my Evo, they got a lot of stuff done that separates it. Not just my rap of it. Okay. Yeah, that goes back in when you do it. When you do mods the wrong way.
B
Oh, speaking of mods done the wrong way.
E
Oh, no.
B
I was scrolling on Instagram and dude, I saw this and I just immediately thought of CJ and how much this would trigger him.
D
I already know which one you're gonna show. I saw it, dude.
B
Look at this.
D
What actual is this? When you're just seeing the very beginning, you're kind of like K. And then you see this dude.
B
Dude, straight up.
E
Oh my God.
A
That is arrow right there. That is.
B
Where did they get all these?
A
EBay, bro.
D
I think they just started ordering.
F
They just put the autozone.
C
But I'm most. No, I'm most by this because all of it looks like real carbon fiber.
B
Yeah, no, it looks like it's like kind of like made to fit on there.
C
Yeah, yeah, no it doesn't look good. But it's like. It's not hydro dipped. It's like real carbon.
D
It's lowered and everything. The thing is, I think he just bought a bunch of different carbon fiber.
C
From to be funny. I don't know if it on some.
D
I don't know. Part of me, part of me wonders like. Because that takes some serious dough, you know. Most people, I don't know, I just think he got carried away. And it's a classic situation not knowing what you're doing.
C
That has to be a parody, dude.
B
It's got to be. But I saw this and I immediately thought of CJ because like if there's one thing CJ hates, it's modifying cars that shouldn't be modified. And you could argue maybe that this type Ultima.
D
It's not even a type R. You just put a type R badge on it.
C
Honda doesn't even make Ultima.
B
Okay, it's a Honda Ultima.
D
What is the. Starts with an A Civic. An Accord, A chord. Sorry.
B
So I knew this would trigger cj and then I looked down after I get done screen recording and I see liked by CJ people are our subs.
D
Already on it. They're sending me this stuff all the time. Dude, it's funny. I mean you gotta. That guy has to have quite a bit of cheddar in that. Yeah, he like he honestly does. And you can't even take that off cuz he self tapped that into the. Into the side of the car. Self tappers through half the car, totaled that thing out.
B
It looks like something that Jake would have done back in the day.
A
No, I never modified anything like that.
B
That you did the light bar time. This was like the sun. Yo, photo of that truck.
A
I will find one.
B
You had like 14 light bars on it.
C
That was the name of the truck.
B
This and then all the carbon.
D
Fake carbon fiber wrap.
C
That was fun.
A
Yeah, it was fake wrap though. But yeah, it's on Mike's Facebook actually. It's him by the sun and his Subaru. The only picture I got of it.
D
Speaking of Mike's Facebook. So I hired this private detective just to kind of keep an eye on Mike, make sure he's, you know, super investigating him.
C
Super weird.
E
Keep an eye on him.
C
Super weird.
B
If that's true, money well spent.
D
I'm just kidding. No, just our subscribers are. Are just free detectives. And this guy sent me this. It's a picture from 2009 off of Mike's Facebook. All right, there it is. Saw the hot dog too. Running jump. This is. It goes back to 2009, bro, someone just sent me that. I appreciate you guys, you know, tagging me and sending me these great pictures.
C
It's really funny cuz like now they came full circle, I guess, of the whole hot dog truce out. But I remember when I posted that pic, I'm like, man, that that's so cool.
A
Like, so is all the stuff anyone posted.
E
Yeah, I mean, I can see why you thought that. It's actually pretty sick.
C
I was like, dude, what? I can't believe that. Because yeah, that was back when this was taken on like some, you know, random ass Nikon digital camera.
D
Like pretty nice picture.
C
Yeah.
B
The only thing I can think is there's no way you made it.
C
I doubt I made it. No.
B
Probably like that's a pretty good leap.
C
You were risking your life like that weed roller dog to the chesticles. Yeah, that's a nice.
B
I thought we were going to go on without it.
D
Sorry.
C
Oh, shoot.
B
No, it's all good.
E
You guys see that Cobb got sued for like EPA stuff. Like all the tuners that we all had in our subies and stuff. Well, you guys had one, one big.
C
Place somewhere on the east coast that got hit up. Some diesel deleting place.
F
Fine. For 2.9 million.
C
COB did. And then this other diesel one got sued for 12 million.
D
Didn't that happen to brothers?
C
Yeah, so like they're just cracking down and like, isn't it interesting? Like you just buy a cob tuner and you're just like, cool, everything checks out. But then they get sued for.
D
Well, Cobb got sued, not.
E
Not the people.
C
Right.
A
It's crazy how much they're actually cracking down. So like back when I like just beaters, I'd bring them to Jeff Muffler and have them cut the cats out or whatever.
B
Muffler, yeah.
A
They will like not do. They won't even touch it anymore if there's really not cats on it. They just won't touch if there's and they won't take them out. Like, I brought in my old diesel to have them take the cats out. They're like, oh, we can't do that.
C
Unless you pay cash.
B
Yeah.
D
No, they still won't.
A
No, they still won't do nothing, really.
E
You just got to leave it in a parking lot on the bad side of town. It'll be gone.
D
A couple buddies I used to work with, they'll come and just chop it right off.
E
Leave us all chained up to your truck. Someone just walks up.
B
Yeah. It's like when you go to a bike shop or something.
D
Like a bank.
B
Or a bank.
E
And they got the pens tied up.
B
Yeah.
C
It's legit. Like a speakeasy.
D
The underground.
B
The underground deleting world.
C
When. When I. Yeah. Run into a buddy that's like, oh, yeah, I got a. I got a guy. He does a bunch of them, and I'm just like, it's kind of rare these days. Just have a guy that gets any truck deleted.
D
What is crazy, though, is like, plastic. Gallons of death, actually.
E
Oh, yeah.
D
You know, contribute more pollution.
E
I can imagine. I do believe it.
D
Yeah.
A
A whole nother product. And there's what, millions of these.
D
Yeah. These little plastic jugs trump, you know, them being deleted in terms of the environment and damage to it.
A
I think it's just tax scam.
C
So this is.
D
They just want to have their. Have their fingers and everything, dude.
F
I mean, that's. That's one of those products where it's like, you could potentially recycle it, but nobody goes to a gas station, dumps one of those in their truck, and then's like, oh, I need to recycle this. No, it's just straight in the garbage.
E
And then the. Never fits in the garbage.
D
Never fits. I agree.
C
I was so fired up. It was actually after the cobbler lawsuit thing. This is so Micah to do. Went on Amazon, ordered a defund the EPA shirt, because I was just. How can I help buy a shirt from.
B
I don't know if.
C
Yeah, I don't know.
B
Yeah. I don't know if any of the money from that sale went to anyone.
C
It's so stupid.
B
I just.
C
I hate it. I hate everything about it. One thing I could see, when you have dudes with diesels that are like, I got bigger injectors just so I could roll more coal. Some of those trucks roll so much. And their whole goal, the Ye Boys, the whole goal is to roll as much coal all over the place. Yeah. As just a regular, like someone just driving behind him, who's not even like usually getting that mad on the road is just like, come on.
D
Yeah, it is peppered full blown coal in it.
B
Like when you're driving a Tesla, do people roll coal on you?
F
So I actually had one dude do this when we were going to the Zoomies meet up.
D
I watched it.
F
So like I, you know, we're going on the off ramp and then he just starts rolling Cole. And I was like, whatever. So he gets in the left lane, I get in the right lane and.
A
Then he does it more just at.
E
The stoplight, blows it into Cool.
F
You're. You're really cool, dude.
B
Did you turn your filtration system on?
F
No, I just drove away.
E
That's why they put it in Teslas. All the coal getting rolled on them.
A
That guy is pretty cool.
D
It is cool in that aspect though. Like, especially when you're younger. Like. Oh yeah, even when I like we first got the, the SEMA truck, I liked rolling coal, you know, but that's.
C
What I'm getting at. Rolling coal is the best thing ever. Better than driving a non deleted truck 100% of the time. But it's just when it's too much.
E
Time and place for it too. Like at the car show that I went to last night, like there was kids doing it down. They turned the street into a one way and they were like rolling coal all over, like down the street and everybody's walking around. I was like, all right, maybe, maybe not fellas. Just here but. But you know, like when you're out on a back road and you're pulling a trailer then, you know.
B
Yeah.
D
Or like you're like, you know, the stoplight is done now and you're, you know, going, that's fine, I guess. But like it's just excessive. It's kind of the same as just going down revving your end.
B
Yeah.
D
Like a Subaru. Some kind of.
C
I always like the, the more coal you can roll, like it's like the more backfire.
D
Dude, some of those pop. Pop tunes are just too much.
C
They're like barely Revenant. It's. Yeah, it's some like Honda Civic or.
A
Yeah, I always thought that was cool in cars that are actually fast. And then I just found out people can do it with tunes. I'm like, oh, like that. That's the Honda Civic.
C
What do you think of like I almost forgot these existed. But like a ghost cam, what even is that for one and two? Like when you take your foot, like what is a ghost cam?
A
So ghost cam Is like the Mustangs.
C
Part of the tune.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
So like cars that have four cams, like dual overhead cams, or like an LS is one cam. They can lock the cam lobe so.
B
It'S like wob, wob, wob, wob, wob.
A
And it basically sounds like a cam, an electron. It's all ecu. Yeah, I actually had one with my white muscle. I'm like, this is sick and that. But it runs and drives like absolute. Because they're stuck there.
C
I don't know why this is even a thing. But like my pit bike has a tuner, the a racer tuner. And you can like program how it backfires. Really? You can go like or. And just like random. Like, why is that even a thing?
D
You can do so much changing to your vehicle. The custom. Yeah, just with the computer, you know, just tuning it. I mean, obviously most of the time it's like ramping up power. But like you could bring your Lamborghini and have them put a tune on it to make it just pop like crazy. Even crazier, you know. Or you could have them make it so it doesn't pop at all.
E
Obviously I wouldn't mess with the sanctity of my all stock Corvette. But I did find out that if I slightly push on the gas. Gas while I'm decelerating, I can give it just enough fuel that it starts to backfire just slightly.
B
I figured yours does did that already.
E
Yeah, it does, but like only when you downshift, it'll do like two pops and they're pretty quiet. But if you give it just a little gas, then you can get like five pretty nice ones.
D
You know that Corvette put that in though. Like they, when they tuned it, they're like, have it do some pops, but not too many. Oh yeah, for sure, not too many.
E
Ridiculous.
D
You know, and with Lamborghini they're like, make sure it freaking pops and make it ridiculous. It's a ridiculous car.
C
It is interesting how now because I agree with that, like once you got your exhaust on your car, it popped like realistically five times more than it did.
B
Kind of the same amount louder.
E
Oh yeah.
C
Okay.
B
It always did that. But like the R8 that we were giving away is the exact same car is my Lamborghini. Like the motor, the transmission, the everything about it, except for like small things like the tuning. Right. So the R8, you could call it like a businessman, like refined, like smoother, nicer interior. And they, they didn't pop. I mean, a little bit like three pops kind of Like Ryan's, but it didn't work. Like, mine is like.
E
Not like his car though.
B
No, no. The aftermarket did like three, but, but, but I'm sure you could tune it to just be like an AK. Ryan. I drove a Ferrari 488 Spider the other day.
E
Yeah.
B
Which is like the exact same car that Corvette used to like model the new Z06 after with like the way that it sounds, the way that it drives and handles being that it's a mid engine.
D
Dude.
B
If I closed my eyes, it felt like I was driving your car. Really? Like, dude. Sounded the same. Felt the same. Kind of like weight wise and then like handling wise, like insane. And I think they're like three times the amount.
E
Yeah.
A
Paying for that horse on the front.
E
That'S crazy that they actually got it that close where you're like, yeah, I feel like they're similar.
B
Yeah.
D
You know, I'm surprised Ferrari didn't sue Chevrolet for that because they. They freaking sue their own customer. Yeah. If they paint the car a color of their choos, that's not a Ferrari. Like you're not supposed to modify a Ferrari at all. Like if you modify the emblem. Like one of these soccer players got freaking. I'm pretty sure they got suit like.
F
Deadmau5 like 10 years ago. He wrapped it and he got like. They sued him to make him take it off.
D
Yeah. Isn't that crazy, dude?
C
I mean, and I've heard the same thing. I figured like Ken and you, you as well would know a little bit more about, about this. But like everyone hears it. You're going to get sued with some diesel. You're going to get sued. Yeah.
D
He never did.
C
Yeah. I'm confused as like, why? So there's like some companies out there, reputable companies. I know one of them's like creative, bespoke. They modify the absolute F out of Ferraris. It's not like a wonder if it's a Shelby. I think Ford relationship.
B
Like, yeah, like if you bought a.
D
I don't know, fries just kind of lame in that aspect. And that makes me not really like them. But like, I'm pretty sure they don't service rebuilt titles and stuff. Like you can't bring it to a Ferrari dealership. They just care so much about their image and they want it to be like this classy, like lame ass person driving it.
F
They're trying to make it exclusive is what they're trying to do.
D
It's already exclusive with the price, dude.
C
Yeah.
A
There's only select few exclusively lame Is what it is. Yeah.
F
You want to buy a new one? Like they have to approve it.
B
Yeah.
C
I just was going through like the emails like I said, and some dude is like, yo, like, I live kind of outside of Dubai or whatever, like around Dubai and There's a Ferrari F50 for sale that I have access to. I can get you pictures and videos and stuff to you. He hit you personally, my account. And I'm like, I look it up and I was like, this is a 4 to $4.3 million car and you're.
D
Gonna have to have a ship from Dubai.
C
I just was confused. I was like, like. And he was very serious. I can get pictures, you know, I'll coordinate everything.
E
And you think it was a kid sitting in Iowa? Maybe, maybe.
C
No, we got an emails from them before and it seemed. I don't know. Anyway, what business does anyone have buying.
D
A 4.2 million car in Dubai? That's a normal ass car. And when they hear your money, Mike, they're like, this is nothing to them.
C
Yeah. They got to do.
B
So this actually is a good time to bring this up. So, Mike, I have a video idea that I want to pitch to you.
C
Okay.
B
First, and then we'll, we'll do the planning out afterwards. But I want to make sure that you're on board first.
C
Yeah, right. Because normally you don't have to ask. The video idea is good. We're all on board.
B
Yeah. So have you seen Shark Tank?
C
Yes.
E
Great.
B
So I want to line up people to come and pitch you. Not companies, but they're junk or their gold.
D
Yeah, Nice stuff. Nice stuff, but subjective term.
C
The people you bring in, someone strikes a chord just right. And I can't say no.
B
You bring 10 people in, you'll probably buy five. Yeah, right.
D
Well, it depends how all 10 things are.
B
Good.
C
Yeah, it depends on. It really does depend. Depend on what they bring. But I'll probably base my statistics off of like Shark Tank. They make a deal with like one out of every five people that roll in.
B
Look, you can do whatever you want. The reason I'm telling you this, because normally for a video bit, I would just surprise you and just be like, here's what we're doing. Right. Like the hot dog stand. Here we go, brother. Here's your new business. We're going to go and hit the pavement. The issue with this one is I need you to show up with money.
C
All right?
B
Right.
C
I think it's important that I come into it knowing.
B
Okay.
C
I really do financially plan for it.
B
So I Thought that if, you know, there could be something where, like, you know, I act as, like, the lender, and then whatever you buy, you just pay me back afterwards. And then we keep that authenticity of, like, surprising you. And, like, you know, I've got. I've got 10 sellers lined up behind this door, right. I'm like, all right, here's like, cash. I'll act as your lender, and then you just pay me back at, like, a 5% rate, right?
C
Yeah.
B
But I thought that maybe you would get carried away.
C
No. And I thought maybe that's a bad deal. I'll just bring my own money, man.
B
Perfect.
D
Yeah.
B
That's what I like to hear.
C
Cool.
B
Yeah. With that being said, they're here.
C
They're.
B
They're not here, but rolling with a.
C
Bunch of four wheelers and shit.
B
I'm going to make this post and have people start pitching you.
C
Oh, okay. Gosh. Junk Tank presented by Money Mike.
A
No way.
C
I love it. And obviously the name. Everything works so well. I just hope people don't actually bring junk.
B
No, no, no junk. Beauty's in the eye of the beholder, Right.
D
It'll be junk to some people.
B
Yeah. I'm going to vet all. I don't want people coming in and wasting your time. Yeah, right. You know what I like, you're there to invest.
C
Yeah.
B
I know what you like. I know what you're looking for.
A
Are you going to make them, like, do a sales pitch? Like, why should my.
C
Yeah, you have to.
B
That would be awesome. So I thought that maybe you don't have to say yes, but you might want some advisors on your board. Right. Obviously, like, what you say goes. Right. You're the one writing the check. But if you need somebody to, you know, ask, like, hey, should I buy this or not? I thought maybe I. I could hop in if you wanted me to, and then we could have Chris, our accountant, also hop in.
F
You say yes.
C
I mean, having Chris there would be. He'd say no to everything. You know, like, he'd be like a Ken kind of a voice of reason. But, like, having you there, you're just gonna say yes to anything. That's the most entertaining. So you might not be in my best interest.
E
Who's like a third neutral party that we should have that?
C
Honestly, I would probably say Evan or CJ. CJ is a good example.
F
EVs just gonna call everything Cheeto is the problem.
D
Yeah, that's not a great.
C
But he. But then when Evan is interested in something, like, yeah, he does think a lot of Things are Cheeto.
B
Yeah. I don't know if he would have your. Your best interest.
C
Yeah, but like, you have good people in your corner. He would curve me around like a stupid purchase.
B
Yeah, but you don't want someone like that in your corner.
C
Yeah, but I don't want someone saying buy everything.
B
What if Evan would have said, like, don't buy that drift car that thinks cheat? He would have said that. Because obviously, like, he would have said that.
C
Yeah, true. And then I would have a different drift car for less money.
E
But think about how much less we would have laughed.
B
Dude, with that.
C
I'm overthinking it.
B
You're overthinking it, Mike, you're overthinking it, dude.
C
Yeah. The more I do think about it, get a little off topic here. My drift car is just like Ryan's Hummer.
B
It's so good.
C
Ryan was but still is proud of his Hummer and I was still am proud of my drift car. And it's a piece of work, but yes.
E
No, just kidding.
D
Yes.
E
Yeah.
C
I don't know. I always compare it to that, but yeah. Dude, I'm down. Junk tank.
B
How much money? That's the, like, give me a budget here because, like, realistic. I'm going to have to start lining people up to come and pitch.
C
I don't know.
D
Like, if it's good stuff at a good deal, you can't say no to that.
C
That's actually where I don't want it to go overboard. So let's say it's like I would say 25,000.
B
Okay.
C
Like, so if someone comes with one good thing to buy for 25,000 or give or take that, then my budget's blown.
D
Right, Right.
B
So I'll take that into consideration.
D
But also, like, if it's something really good for 25k, that's a good deal. You don't want to get that.
C
Say yes.
D
But then there might be more good deals.
C
Yeah.
D
You'll be missing out on.
B
So.
D
Yeah. Possible profit or just missing out.
C
Oh, so I have to make it a decision before the next one?
D
No. Yeah. I mean, you could still buy everything. Everything that comes your way. It's just more so. It's just more so, like, okay, you know, like, look at these options.
B
So obviously, so obviously I. I figured that you'd have a budget, which I respect, but I was going to go to some investors and see if they would put up a line of credit for you.
C
Perfect.
B
No, no, no. Ken, how do you feel about. How do you feel about investing in money, Mike's? Future junk take purchases.
F
I'll take the. The item into consideration. But not everything is just going to get a green light. It's going to have to be vetted. Like is this thing worth it?
C
So understand like so that Ken can say yes to this. But like that's not how money Mike rolls, Robert.
B
Right, but money. Money. But money Mike is looking to expand his arsenal and that might come at a cost. Yeah, but there's a 5% something.
C
Yeah, again, F that. F the 5%.
A
I'll do.
F
I'll do one under Prime.
C
Literally any interest at all yet. Straight cash, homie. And everyone knows, including myself, all of the arsenal of things I own, they don't make me any money escape. That skate park ain't making me money yet.
D
Yeah, until you open it.
C
I mean that drip as a business, you open it and you guys would hate that and I'd get shut down. You guys are OSHA around here.
E
What would you. What would you call it?
C
I would just. Yeah.
F
What would be called Mike's Junk Emporium or.
C
No, because then they'd walk in and be like, where's all the junk? All we see is ramps.
A
I just envision a bunch of kids name like Danny that are there and they're like 14 year old punks.
B
At Mike's Skatepark.
A
Yeah, at Mike's Skate Park. Just give me.
E
They're all like graffiti behind the building.
D
Talking back.
B
Graffiti there. Evan would be there just chopping it up with all of them but making all atlant kick flips and he can.
C
I love it. Oh, that's sick. You rock at nice too, my guy.
B
All right, well great. I'm really excited about this then. So I'll make this post. I'll start lining up some potential buys for you.
C
Yeah, you got the most work to do.
B
Some cops. And then I'll just tell you when to show it.
C
Don't bring cops.
B
Okay, okay, no cops.
D
That's not going to keep them out of it.
B
No cops.
E
And then you just, you know, save up. I think maybe shoot for more like 60, 75.
C
Yeah.
D
If it's awesome stuff though. I think you can't say no on opportunities, you guys.
C
But I mean, I agree, but like. So I might just need everyone's insight on this. You guys realize if a bunch of cool stuff comes in and I did spend 60 to 75 grand, my Viper dreams never coming true.
D
What if a viper is something that comes rolling in?
C
Then it's coming true.
D
That's what I'm saying. Like closing yourself off to a budget.
C
If a Viper comes in, I'm definitely blowing three times the budget, but then I can't.
B
What if it's at the end?
F
Would you be willing to take interest if the Viper.
C
That's what I'm wondering is. I just.
D
I just asked.
C
Do I have to, like, make a decision?
D
No, no, no, no. I mean, we'll. Believe me. Mike, we want to help make your dreams come true just as bad as you do. So we'll make sure that we can step in if needed.
C
Well, Ben's the one who came up with the show idea. It could be his dream, too.
B
To be fair, I actually had a subscriber pitch the idea to me, and then I. I took it and ran.
C
Love it.
B
So, yeah. Yeah, Actually, I believe Caleb from Dirty Birds.
C
Oh, class.
B
Yeah. Yeah. Because then he started telling you. He was like, hey, Mike, did you hear about the shark tank? And I go.
C
I was just talking to him on Instagram.
B
Yeah, I was like, dude, no, no, no. So I love it when. When the. When the subs come through with a banger idea. That's. That's a great idea.
C
So I love it too. I was just talking about this with Sydney. She's like, you guys should do a college hoodie. And we did the college hoodie. It just dropped. It's on the website now. And she's like, so what do royalties look like for that? Joking, obviously. And I was like, you have no idea how many people actually say that. They'll be like, you should put a snow bike kid on the Stark. And then they're like, so am I, like, going to get a cut cut or like a shout out for that?
B
It'll be good, Mike. I'm excited that you're excited about it.
C
Yeah, I like it.
B
Can we do 30?
C
We'll figure it out. I mean, companies probably got to put up at least 100 bucks.
B
Yeah, we could probably put up 100 bucks.
E
We were gonna do 200, but, yeah, for 100 is all you need. That's fine.
A
I have a feeling there isn't a budget when he just said he would blow three times the budget. If a Viper came in, you know, anything cool comes in, he's gonna be like, all right, I gotta get this.
B
This the bank.
D
Yeah. Guys, you got.
F
You got a couple hundred bucks lying around. I can. I just need a little bit more.
A
I'm envisioning rolling in next week, and there's going to be like, a 2004 F150 that's, like, decked out with spinners.
D
That's great.
A
We need a new shop truck.
D
Yeah.
C
See, they'd be like, oh, I got this 1979 Chevelle. And I'd be like, I don't even know if that's cool or not, Mike.
B
I know what your taste is, dude.
C
Yeah, yeah. Exactly.
B
I know what you're looking for.
C
Exactly.
B
So just let me do my job and you do yours. All right?
D
All right.
B
I love it. Hey, Dalton. Dalton, come up here.
F
What do you think for, like, part two? So, like, Ryan's got a history of pity buying some stuff.
E
Pity buying. Like, everybody comes in with a sob.
F
Story, so then we. We then pawn them off on Ryan before we send them.
C
I love that. Like, the best sob story that's true.
B
I mean, is Ryan.
F
I mean, he bought, like, that.
C
Well, random snowboard.
F
Bought some random stuff.
B
Oh, this just a snowboard, dude.
C
Really did them dirty.
E
And the kids spent it all on merch. Like, it literally came right back.
B
I forgot about this snowboard. You called my name mid poop.
D
What's up?
B
I want to ask you about your newfound haters. Oh, Evan's little minions. So Dalton posted this TikTok. He got flamed in the comments, right? And he's convinced that everyone hating on him is just sent after him by Evan. Okay, so, like, Evan and Dalton have beef, right? But we've made it pretty apparent in our videos, right, that they're, like, always beefing. They're always bickering back and forth, right? So now that Dalton's got haters, he's convinced that they're all just little Evans coming after him.
C
They are.
B
The whole comment section is Cheeto, Cheeto, Cheeto, Cheeto.
D
I agree with what. What's. What's going on over there. But he didn't send them, like, directly send them. He just indirectly did by us showing that you guys have beef and whatever, because, like, you know, he's got his little cult underneath him that, like, if he says jump, they're going to jump. If he says the sky is not blue, it's gray or yellow, they're going to say it's yellow, too.
B
So, like, dude, it's honestly quite sad.
C
It's very sad.
D
You can't take it so personal.
B
Saturday, filming my video, just having a good time.
C
I'm out there by myself, just doing country.
B
I think that. I think that's actually the most impressive part of the entire thing is the reel that he posted. He filmed all of it on a tripod.
D
He.
B
One man showed it, right? I thought it was A great video, dude. So I do feel for you there. But just goes to show, like just sometimes picking battles, you know, maybe the wrong person. Yeah, Evan.
D
Because no matter how in the right. This is what I'm saying. No matter how in the right you are or how cool it is, they're just gonna side with Evan whatever he thinks. And he's. He doesn't think anything you do is cool.
B
So he just doesn't enjoy anything. Like what's his deal though?
E
Why?
B
I think that's just him. I think it's just becoming more and more apparent. But I think, to be fair, here's what I wanted to say. You're seeing all the hate comments, right? But if you go back like two videos ago when you and Evan were like bickering back and forth, there's like five positive comments having your back to every like one that has Evan's back. Right? So I think you're just getting fixated on the hate comments and you think that that's like everyone, but the haters are always louder than the supporters. So thank you. My advice to you was gonna be just fuck them and just keep doing you. Because now that you're getting followers on Instagram, which is great, is gonna come with haters too.
D
Yeah. Yeah. On the bright side, all these people talking shit. This is one of your Highest viewed videos. 183,000 plays. That's awesome for you. Hopefully there go. It's going up.
B
Also, also, also, I told you this, but dude, you had some chicks hit you up after that video too. And you said, you know, that was a large reason of making that video.
D
Yeah.
B
So it clearly worked.
D
The reason you made that video wasn't to try and impress some dudes. I'd assume as a single 18 year old man.
A
It wasn't for you.
D
You made it to try and lure the chicks in.
E
Kind of blowing up his spot right now.
D
Is it working?
C
No.
B
Yes, it is.
D
No, it's not.
B
It's working.
E
Smiles getting bigger and bigger.
B
It's working. He's being humble now with anything that you put on the Internet, it's gonna come with haters.
E
I don't know.
B
Get the Subi back today. So Subaru video coming soon. Yeah. So Dalton's actually looking to do a rebrand now.
A
He's living a double life.
B
Yeah.
D
You did say you were trying to rebrand that.
C
That goes I basically to his point. He basically just said he was doubling down.
D
Oh, I thought you said I don't want to be the no shirt guy.
C
Anymore from now on, though.
B
Yeah.
D
I mean, you did that to yourself.
A
I think it's funny.
D
I think I don't want to just be known as the guy.
C
Like, it feels like we have, like, phases in our crew. Back in the day when Jake was on the channel, my guy couldn't keep his shirt on, and I was. Yes, it was Jake. If you think way back, it was.
B
I remember Jake wearing the Murph, wearing his helmet and not wearing a shirt ever.
A
Yeah.
B
I don't remember you always being shirtless.
D
Just take it off because you'd get worked on fast.
C
Say. Or whoever it was. Yeah. What was Jake? And then after that, it was our boy Calvin. Yeah, he did drop his shirt all the time.
D
We didn't have ac. We were working in a hot shop.
A
But at least you guys were, like, ripped and could get chicks. I was just a tub of goo. And then you guys would label the videos Fat kid.
G
Pretty.
C
Well, yeah.
B
When you rode shirtless to Zor.
E
For burrito.
A
Yeah, for a burrito.
E
Pretty legendary wheelie.
C
Just very legendary. Really questionable that we ever called you fat because you were just like, not.
D
Hey, it was good because then it got people going, though. He's not fat. Yes, he is fat. You know, this. And that gets. It gets the people going. You know, I loved it.
C
It was.
D
Yeah. And it was just funny. It was just a funny title.
B
So, Jake, as you know, as Mike stated from the emails earlier, somebody who has a ton of haters, you know, all of them. Do you have any words of advice to Dalton?
A
Yeah, dude, just don't read the comments if it bothers you. Just don't read them because it's going to piss you off. Me, personally, I don't get mad. So just don't read them if you're going to get mad. Like, I have actually my own comment section turned off at this point.
C
Damn.
A
Yeah. No, I don't. Just don't read them if it pissed you off, don't read them. Sorry. I had some inner 201617 energy coming out there. I was getting fueled back in the day.
B
Dude, were you shirtless? Video coming soon.
D
So you're gonna play. You're gonna lean into it?
B
I might.
D
I would. Yeah. It'd probably help your God. You probably get more followers that way.
A
When you got haters, double down on it. Dude. I'd do a naked video next time. Shirtless and throw those nails.
C
That's some Jake.
B
That is, actually.
D
Yeah, it'd be funny, dude.
E
Video that you just did exactly the same. Just only wearing a cowboy hat and.
A
Put a sock over your peeing so it doesn't get all blocked.
D
Just blur it.
C
Oh, my God.
E
You imagine he's doing it out, like, in our field over there, and they go, there's this naked boy throwing around hay bales.
D
It's just filming it with a tripod.
A
Can you one dude please make this? I got bales and everything. I'll help film it.
D
He's got plenty of hay bales.
C
You'll help film.
B
Dude, that's kind of.
E
That's sweet of you, dude.
A
Dude, I want to see this go live. They ain't gonna know who helped film. I want to see this on Instagram.
C
It's like, the one time Dalton gives film credits.
B
He's, like, hopping out of his truck. You just see Jake filming in the room in the mirror, and Jake's, like, kind of smiling.
A
Yeah.
B
The first comment is, is that Jake Sherman? And then you start getting flames.
A
I was like, no, it's not me.
B
No, I can tell it's you. You're wearing that black bum shirt.
A
Yeah, it's not.
C
Speaking of getting flamed, going through the email the other day, Mike and some guy just goes, jake kind of reminds me of Haywire from Prison Break, which, if you haven't seen Prison Break, great show. But I'm like, who's Haywire from Prison Break again? And it's this guy.
D
I don't know if that's a compliment.
A
No, it's not.
B
I don't know. Blaming you in our email.
A
Yeah.
B
Yeah.
A
Why do your guys email?
B
What about the one. The one email that was all in the subject line that you posted on your story that just ended with something about cj.
C
I didn't save it.
B
Like, fat like CJ or something like that. Like, CJ kind of caught a stray.
C
At the end of it.
B
I mean, I was like, oh, pretty nice.
D
Nice letter.
B
And then C.J. catches a stray.
C
Remember it briefly. Basically it was, hey, I could be your resident quad guy. I'm crazy like Jake, and I can ride quads as good as Evan, and I don't drink as much as cj.
B
Yeah.
C
Like, why did he. Did you caught a stray on that?
D
I don't drink that much.
E
He just absolutely missed probably three people that could have been pointed at. Just smack CJ with it.
C
Somehow I didn't really understand that, but it's just, like, the end of the day. That's why I read them. They're just so weirdly entertaining.
A
My favorite is how inaccurate they are sometimes. So, like, for example, granted, Ken, you're A good rider, but, like, Evan can definitely wheelie longer or something like that. But they'll just be like, you guys should all learn to wheelie, like, Ken. And it's just like, totally not even close to, like, anything.
C
Yeah.
B
A lot of times I'll read something that somebody comments, and then I. I asked myself, what the. Did they just watch?
A
What video were they in?
C
Yeah.
B
Or like, where did they get that thought process because it's so off.
A
Probably just like one from, like, 2018 where someone did something super badass. They're like, that guy's the best of the whole group. And that was the first video I watched.
C
Dude. Another really entertaining thing I posted just a snap of you in that fake Indy car or whatever you had two strokes on beyond the back. Like this.
A
I found about that.
C
Yeah, weird Indy car thing you had. And you're doing donuts. And I had a. Let's say, five responses of people that are like, dude, I've seen every video. Which video is this? And I was like, well, we never filmed with it. It was on Jake's channel. But it was really cool to hear, like, people who are like, I've seen every video. That one's not in any of your videos. I was like, you really have seen every video? Because it's not that. And they're like, I would know too.
E
You sell that thing or did you break it?
B
No, I just sold it, man. Speaking of comments, I hate to. I hate to bring this up, but when Jake left our channel back in 19 or whatever. 19, dude, the comments were so brutal because, like, we. We didn't say anything, but we're also in a lawsuit, so we couldn't say anything, and they were just toasting us. And then you posted your video with flip the script with he who shall not be mentioned. Right. And then Jake started getting toasted in his comments stopped with us. And they stopped with us. I hate, hate comments. Right? Like, I. I would never make one myself, but I just remember seeing those and just being like, damn, this kind of feels nice.
D
Probably the same crew. It's probably the same crew.
E
Yep.
D
There's still people. Like, I saw a comment on last night's video, and it said, jake built this channel. And I was just like, man, that just discredits everything. Everyone, any of us, anyone, you know? And it's just crazy.
A
But I was gone 4 million subscribers.
D
Ago, but definitely had to help, though, a hand in it.
A
But you said it best when I was like, I had the cannon loaded, and it just backfired. So Hard. Dude, I. It was the. Yeah, it was a disaster.
E
Glad that we moved forward.
A
Yeah, I'm glad we're on.
B
I mean, one of the greatest memes to ever come out of C Boys TV happened because of it. Yeah.
D
Can we play that?
B
Yeah, can we just play it?
C
What?
A
Oh, I know what it is.
B
Well, we wouldn't want to say anything that we might. Look.
A
You guys, if you go to YouTube right now, someone screen recorded and posted, it's got like 50, 000 views.
B
You know, something we might work with.
C
You know, it's tough for Ken.
B
Ken couldn't say regret of all. I said it three times that we've.
C
Ever messed up on the channel and on the podcast and of everything even I'm off the channel like inside joke wise. We have so much funny stuff and that one Mike Trump at all.
B
Oh man, Ken, I'm sorry to bring that up, but it's just too damn funny.
A
I'm just glad we're all friends again.
B
No, I mean, yeah, we can. We can clearly laugh about it now.
A
Yeah, but if you couldn't laugh about.
D
It, then I was laughing at the time.
B
Oh, no, no, no, dude, that was the funny. We. I don't think we've. We haven't stopped laughing. Like that is like to date one of the funniest things we have out on the Internet.
D
It was just a comedian.
E
Nobody's funnier than comedian here it is.
F
It want to say something that we might regret.
D
We posted that on our story.
F
Did want to say something that we regret.
B
He said it again.
F
We also didn't say. We could post it on YouTube.
A
Also did.
E
Yeah, dude, that's amazing. One, we didn't want to say anything that like we might regret. So when you say it two times.
D
Dude, I forgot that he said it so many times. He said it wrong the first time and then he goes for a retake and we're all just like trying to act.
C
Trying to.
B
I'm like, this is a serious moment. Try.
D
I gotta like actually act how I feel. But then at the same time Ken gives. Just kept cracking jokes.
C
If you're listening to this, go run that post up and comment. Regret.
B
I want to say something that we might regret.
C
I love how we were surprised because I was as well. Like that we posted just that. Like we're like, oh, if you missed our apology video, it's just pretty funny.
B
Dude. That is why we shouldn't try and be serious on the Internet ever.
E
Dude.
B
The funniest part of anything we've ever done Came from a serious video.
D
Maybe we should try and be serious more often so funny things happen.
A
Yeah, dude, go see our apology videos live. Shit's hilarious.
B
Oh, my gosh, dude.
C
Oh, yeah, also, when you said live, if we had to do that live, like, not like it took, like, that many takes. It's just like, how do you navigate something like that? That's also why I don't believe I called an apology video. It wasn't an apology video. Maybe Jake should have made one. Yeah, don't make apology videos unless, like, I guess it depends on. It depends on. But, like, yeah, if you're just, like, getting canceled for, like, saying something, just gonna. Don't make one Take down. Yeah, just don't make one.
F
Don't need to keep on trucking.
B
Jake makes an apology video.
A
Yeah, I'm gonna take down next week's videos.
C
You, like, do it right now in front of us.
B
Like, Dalton going and making an apology.
D
Well, he wanted to do that.
B
I know what I said.
A
Really?
B
I said, absolutely not.
D
He didn't want to make an apology video. He wanted to make statement video addressing all the people hating on him in his comments. I go, no, that's not the move, man.
E
Damn, I feel bad.
D
He's just not used to this. He's just not used to this. I'm like, dude, it's just. It's just how it goes sometimes.
A
Just don't care or double down to double. Prove you don't care. And they're gone. Like, what are they gonna say?
D
The thing is, we kind of worked up into our exposure of hate comments. So, like, you know, you start with just. Just a small amount of hate comments because you're only getting a small amount of views. But when you start getting a large amount of views, then you're much more susceptible to a large amount of hate comments. But you never had that build up into it, so you're just not ready for it. And it goes the same way with praise.
B
So, like, if.
D
If you didn't have, like, the small amount and slow rise to praise, and you just get the exposure right at the beginning. Everyone's loving you. You're like, I'm the man. I don't do anything wrong. All this, and then it just.
A
Just goes.
D
Same thing backfires.
A
Our third video, though, I was getting hit pretty hard. I will say it felt hard at.
D
The time, but, I mean, how hard could it have been? We were getting like, 5,000 wearing gloves.
C
Yeah.
B
Remember, that's why.
A
Wearing gloves. No seat belt. I'm fat. That Nicholas dude Or whatever.
B
Oh, yeah, he still lives rent free.
F
I don't know.
A
I want to meet him though.
B
Somebody just hated Jake. Yeah. And then he dug up up everything about Jake's personal Jake's dad's life. Like my girlfriend wild. Yeah. You were getting flames for that one video. It must have been tough.
A
Who cares, dude?
B
Did you guys see that guy that tried to shoot Trump was in a jideon video?
D
No.
B
Really?
D
Yeah. What?
B
So it was two years ago. Judeon was on some college, I think it was Harvard College campus, right? And he was just like went up to this guy that was, you know, kind of trying to like recruit people out of college, right? He was just messing with them, being like, oh, sorry man, I don't, I don't do paper. Because he was like trying to like hand out like flyers. Like, I don't do. I don't do paper. And the guy was like, I'm just sick of the system, man. Like, we gotta fucking do something about it. And Judeon was just like kind of making a joke about it, right? And then this guy sneaks on to Trump's golf course.
F
They are deleting this clip from the Internet.
E
Yeah, yeah, same.
C
Wow.
D
Dude, why are they trying to cover it up so hard?
C
This is a public YouTuber.
B
I think it's better to serve and.
C
Fighting the powers over the system, bro.
B
Give me a Glock and a Hellcat. Take a look at this. I'm serious. But I don't do paper. Bro, you're literally killing the environment.
C
We're moving on.
B
You go, go ahead, have your lunch. No, but I'm going to class. I'm a scholar.
D
So what happened to this guy?
B
So then when this guy gets caught, right? And news kind of starts circulating like who, who this guy was, right? People just recognized his face from this Judeon video two years ago. Two years ago. And then they started sending it to him and like, hey, is this, is this the same guy Judeon confirmed? Which I don't know how he knew it, but I saw that like Keemstar from like Drama Alert was like, hey, are these the same two people? And Judeon was like, yeah, I think it is. And he was like, great, running with it. And then I think it like kind of sparked from there, but, man, how crazy is that?
D
That's wild.
B
And then he's saying that too.
C
Yeah.
B
So like there's video footage of it.
D
You don't just one day wake up and do that. Like, it's been like. I was just saying it's a build.
B
Up but, dude, the Internet is insane though. Like, the fact that they, like, put two and two together.
C
Whoever.
D
Like, remember that Dion deleted all of his old videos too, so that. That's just like, from a saved video because he cleared his whole channel because he. He just changed his.
B
I think he made it live again. Million views. Oh, never mind.
E
Now it does.
D
Now it does.
B
He deleted them and then he retitled it and thumbnailed it. Just that guy. And then just said, like, trolling the Trump shooter. Oh, now, now. Whoa, whoa.
D
What, like, what happened to that guy? Just out of curiosity, they catch him?
B
Yeah, he. He, like, made a break. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He, like, left everything in the bushes, ran to his car. Some, like, civilian just saw a guy, like, bolt out of the bushes and hop in a car and then dip out. And I think they either took a video, a picture of the car and gave it to the police, but the police, like, tracked him down and like, got him, I don't know, a couple miles away. He was like. He was straight up, like, making a break for it. But yeah, they ended up getting him out. And I don't know. I'm sure he's in custody.
D
Yeah, now he's.
B
Yeah. Being questioned.
E
Yeah, I did see a pretty funny video of a guy getting arrested by a robot. What so fucking funny, dude.
G
Slavic standoff where multiple shots were fired and one person was injured. 39 year old Felix De la Rosa was wanted for a parole violation. That's why officers tracked him to the hotel. But when he fired shots, they called in the Lubbock County SWAT team. At one point, we fighting with a robot fire at a bomb squad robot. Take a listen. It sprang tear gas gas into De la Rosa's hotel room. Initially, De La Rosa tried to fight the robot, even throwing sheets and would look like towels at it. But that didn't stop the robot from deploying gas. We watched as De la Rosa crawled out of that window and onto the ground.
B
His ass down.
E
The robot pinned him down until the cops could get up.
D
That's hilarious, dude. That's awesome. They have robots like that now.
E
I know. I mean, they got that thing upstairs and it broke through the room.
B
Like, I'm sure it's heavy coming to this conversation.
C
I was like, what's he gonna do?
E
Where are we going with this tear gas?
C
He went outside.
B
Can you imagine? Can you imagine, like, getting hit with the tear gas? You crawl out and then next thing you know, this thing's on top of you. You're like, oh, I just got. I just got Beat.
A
I'm an Internet meme now.
B
Yeah.
A
I'm the guy that got ran over by a robot.
E
Yeah. Top comment on that is getting bodied by 1990s Battlebot is hilarious.
D

An hour of a movie. No.
E
No talking.
B
Yeah, I remember.
D
I remember it being really long.
A
It's good. It's really good.
C
Dude. I just saw that one of the. And I'm not sure which one. One of the Trailer Park Boys movies has the world record for most swears in a movie. Oh, yeah. Makes sense. Makes sense. And it beat out Wolf of Wall street, which has 504 swears in the movie. And they have 800. Like, 86 squares. Like, dude, this is not even close.
E
Like, five literally blew him out. More like 10.
D
Wolf of Wall Street's a long movie. That's a great movie, too.
A
Great movie. Thanks for always.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yo. Ev is such a bandwagoner. He even. He put Viking stickers on his purple dirt bike.
E
I was never. I didn't even know. I haven't knew what football is.
B
No, he's not a football guy. He's just a bandwagon. Or now.
E
Just seems so unlike him. I thought it was a prank. I literally. I was gonna take a picture.
D
It kind of seemed like more of a joke.
F
I walked in on him doing this. I was like, what are you doing?
E
That's. I thought for sure it was like, oh, this is a prank that we're doing to Evan.
B
If any of us did that, Evan would walk in and be like, that is so fucking Cheeto, dude. And then he does it.
C
It.
B
So I just don't know if he's a good advisor for you, Mike.
E
Put the right people in your corner.
C
I agree.

I agree.
