A
What do we do with this? What do we do with this big guy? Have him go paint the wall.
B
Most of the guys driving diesel trucks are, like, the richest dudes.
A
You know, after my YouTube stint, maybe I'll go be a fish farmer. You known as the Hawk to a girl. I can't imagine she like.
C
She.
A
Well, you know, it's bad when. When your casting goes on Craigslist.
B
This looks phenomenal.
C
You guys seen that Hawk tool girl?
A
Yeah.
C
She's, like, mega viral, dude.
A
I don't. So what's the origination of the meme?
D
I mean, it was just one those, like, drunk interviews. Oh, yeah. It caught on. Who knows whether she likes it a.
A
Little or a lot or being known as the Hawk to a girl. Yeah, I can't imagine she likes.
C
She seemed pretty confident in it.
D
Yeah, she seemed pretty, like, funny and confident in it.
A
The.
D
The interview actually was short, even the whole thing.
C
But have you watched, like, the main.
A
Yeah.
C
Or the full video?
D
There's. There's, like, hawk to a 2024, like, President shirts.
A
It's so funny how the Internet just grabs things and runs with it.
D
It. Yeah. Now there's songs like, there's probably already. I've heard three different remixes of it.
C
Oh, you know that, like, some big rapper is gonna throw that thing in there. Like, she gave me that Hawk tool.
D
It is pretty good.
C
It is. It's funny.
D
Funny. It's like a. It's inventing, like, a new, you know, saying, I guess. But how.
C
How has no one ever know?
D
They've said it. They said it. But it's good. You know how, like, when someone gets a nickname but it doesn't stick, and then someone else says it, and it does stick.
C
That's how I watched those interviews, and I always kind of wondered, like, it seems like kind of a weird thing. You're out in, like, a public bar area, and then you stand there. Then, like, it's one thing when you do it, you know, I was watching, like, a Nick Narasina video. So good. He's walking around with sketch, and they, like, get people in. Then it's funny because, you know, you're talking with them, whatever. But, like, if your sole gig is just to go to, like, an area and then interview them and, like, what's your favorite sex story?
A
Yeah.
D
And they're all.
A
Yeah, it's capitalizing on, like, how many.
B
Of these people wake up the next day, see this video, and they're like. They don't know how to even get it down. They're just A normal person. Yeah.
C
Have you seen the ones where it's like a guy and a girl? It's like, who's your hall pass? And the guy will be like, oh, no, we're. I wouldn't want a hall pass. And then the girl goes, actually one of his friends or like this guy on the football team, like, really savage.
D
And then opens up this huge can of worms. All because the guy or girl out there interviewing.
C
Yeah.
D
You can't really blame it on them.
C
But it is kind of a weird.
B
You're kind of capitalizing. Yeah, for sure. Taking a little bit of advantage of some liquored up people.
A
But, man, speaking of. Of interviewing, I think we're gonna have to start interviewing our friends to find the next speed dating.
B
I know.
A
Oh, not host. What would it be?
B
Contestant.
A
Contestant.
C
Victim.
A
Well, I was gonna suggest victim.
B
Felt wrong saying he's definitely not a victim. Gavin's a winner.
D
He.
B
He is a winner. Still dating his girl.
A
So far, so good.
B
They're going strong. They're in love. I'm pretty sure he's even bringing her to Trike Fest.
C
That shot.
B
Yeah, I. I think that right there could be a video on its own. Him bringing her to Trike Fest. We should really be there documenting it.
C
But we could send ken with the GoPro.
B
There we go. That'll be perfect.
A
Walk around, follow him.
C
Trike Fest, dude looks like a music festival, but instead of music, there's just trikes.
B
I really want to go, honestly.
D
Like, that's a horrible comparison.
C
No, it is. You look around, they're all in a field. There's tents everywhere. Like, there's people camping, drinking, having a good time.
A
Right.
C
But there's no concert to go to.
A
Everyone's just there.
B
It's.
A
It's like, usually the concert bring is what brings people together, but the love of trikes is what sounds like bringing people together. And Trike fest is where Gavin is right now. It's in like the middle of Indiana.
B
Yeah.
A
And there's like 2500 people that come together, all with trikes.
C
My favorite thing is he goes, yeah, there'll be 2500 people and at least 4 or 5000 trikes. Like, everybody brings more than one three wheeler. Like, if you go to a car show, it's typical that there's only one car that everybody brings at the show.
B
That dude seriously loves three wheelers. But going back to the speed dating and I'm glad they came, whatever. But like, we round up all these girls, right? And like, our like, single friends that also know we're doing this. They're like, hey, I'm gonna. I'm gonna show up on set that day. They're all hanging around in the background chatting with the girls before they're going in to see G. And yeah, they're like, that was great.
C
Yeah. It'd be like being on the set of the bachelorette. You know, you just wait for the girl to get right, and then you.
B
Walk over there to console area.
A
Yeah.
C
I mean, got to give you guys credit where credit is due.
B
You.
C
You lined up this speed dating, and I think you guys are getting really good at it.
A
Like, the first time this.
B
We're running out of girls, though.
A
Yeah. Yeah, Girls.
C
Yeah. We're out of so many girls in this dang time.
B
I think we can start casting better. We're more so casting word of mouth, finding single girls.
A
But, you know, it's bad when. When your casting goes on craigslist.
D
Yet that.
B
We did go that route.
A
And, yeah, I had a craigslist posting. Posted. Well, we're not living. Yeah, a couple of them, but we're not living in L. A. Where people are, like, out and about looking for acting.
D
So we're not living in 2000.
B
Acting or not.
A
Not an acting gig, but, like, looking forward. Like filming.
C
Yeah. To wanting to be on camera.
A
Yeah.
B
They don't want to be on camera.
C
Yeah.
B
I think next time we'll just do a form like we do with 100 people, and we'll just. We'll have girls submit.
A
Well, we had to stay incognito on this one, so, Yeah, I know you got to.
B
You can just say, like, looking for my next. But they also have to be interested. Like, all those girls were interested in Gavin. They were like, they knew this guy is the. The real deal.
A
They saw the listing, and they couldn't help themselves.
B
They saw his picture, his three wheeler.
D
You know, say it was when we were briefing the. The contestants, the lady contestants, it was pretty easy to talk Gavin up. I had him, like, excited.
C
That's true.
D
Oh, man, I just love him. He's so funny. He's so quick. He's.
C
Yeah. Because some of the girls are nervous.
A
They're just like, oh, oh, yeah. Obviously, if you're looking for the love of your life, you're like, what would I want here? Well, I want a man. Gavin's all of that.
C
He's a man.
A
I want somebody who's funny, charismatic, loving, obsessive. Might be over three wheelers, but he's obsessed.
C
Yeah.
A
Gavin's all of that. It's just so funny. Like, if you guys haven't watched the speed dating in our. Our last video, it's the electric Trike video. At 14 minutes, the speed dating starts. Go and watch it. It is so funny. It is hands down my favorite video bit that we filmed all year. Might. Might even be of all time. Might even be of all time.
C
I know.
B
I've watched it like eight times. And then my mom, I was even talking to her, and she's like, yeah, I had to go back and re.
A
Watch that part today. Dude, it's so funny.
C
Awesome.
B
Yeah. Alex was just dying laughing.
D
I mean, it's exactly what we call genuine peer entertainment. Yeah, you guys really killed it. Like, I think we could do as many as we want. You know, we gotta be careful not to become a dating channel, but we can do it in every video. Oh.
A
What made this one so good is, like, Gavin. What we played into it with Ken is that Ken was just like. Well, he was like a compulsive liar. But we just leaned into that, like, as the audience watching, you know, when it would cut back to us, we're reacting to it being like, quit lying. This is a phony. Like, be yourself. And that's what made that one funny. And then all of the things that Ken said following it, that just dug his hole even deeper and deeper. But Gavin was just like. He just took it and ran with it where it was, like, so much easier to make something out of it because of who he was of just, like, his responses. And, like, the girls come in, they chirp him a little bit, and then he has, like, the funniest response to it. And it was just like, I don't know, man. It's obviously. It's very hard to recreate something like that, but, like, what a special moment. And then he ends up finding a girl and, like, actually had, like, a connection with her. And now it seems to be working, knock on wood. But, like, the fact, like, everything played out so good.
C
That boy was nervous, though.
D
He was sweating.
C
Oh, my gosh, dude. I was talking with him in the van before because we had him cooped up in the sprinter van with all the windows closed. He doesn't know how to work the TVs. He's got nothing. So he's just sitting in there on his phone just, like, literally tweaking out. That boy is so high energy. I don't know if he's ever been in that confined of a space for that long.
B
Yeah, he was sweating before he even walked into the building.
C
It's a good thing he didn't. He didn't have sleeves on his suit.
B
No, no kidding. That's what he runs hot. You got to remember that with Gavin. So that's why he runs no sleeves.
A
My favorite part of the whole thing is when he took a tumble, he hurt himself, and he goes, oh, that's all right, though. You just stand up and you pretend like you're fine. I was like, that's so true. But that's the first time I've ever heard him actually say that. I didn't even know if he was conscious of what he was doing for the longest time.
D
He really does that. I'm just worried for, like, dude, he's had so many falls. He had one for sure. One pretty gnarly one while he was here. And I'm just worried for the time that he actually messes himself up and he better not.
A
Well, I'm fine, dude. He's built different, though. You got to remember that, dude.
D
I mean, you can be built different and still snap your arm in half.
C
Oh, you don't put that on us, Ricky Bobby.
A
Yeah, I just don't know if he could.
D
I'm just like, I. Dude, he just.
B
Got density in his bones. He drinks milk.
D
He does drink milk.
C
He does drink milk.
A
Like, the body mass behind that guy. Like, if you had to put him in, like, a cup and, like, the cup was half full, it would just. It'd be overfilling. Where you could put somebody like, you know, myself or you, Mike. Not necessarily you as much, Mike, but.
C
If you put the large man in a cup.
A
Big cup. I'm just talking about the density of them, you know, like, it's got volume. He's got some volume behind him after.
B
Speaking of milk, it reminds me. So after speed dating, Gavin was hungry. His girl was hungry. They were driving around in the trike. Or the twike. Sorry, the twike. So we stopped at one of those. It was called the frying pan. It's like one of those 24 hour open diners and to get some breakfast. It was midnight. At this point, Gavin down, like, three, four things of chocolate milk in front of his girl.
A
Yeah, it was technically their. Their second date. And me and CJ got to take.
B
Yeah, we were sitting right across from. Yeah, it was pretty fun. And Dalton was there. We didn't film it just because it was kind of like, all right, this is invading their person at this point.
D
No, he showed up to Ryan's the other day with a full half gallon of chocolate milk for Breakfast.
A
Oh, yeah, that's right. He is a big chocolate milk.
D
Yeah.
C
Well, you guys were working hard. I relieved myself for the evening and went to the car show in West.
A
Fargo, as all good Corvette guys do.
C
It's the first big car show of the year, dude.
A
Man.
C
They shut down Broadway in lovely West Fargo.
D
And was it all it was cracked up to be?
C
It was something I put on my story. I'll pop it up here. But the Corvette club was a full showing.
B
I can't imagine the funeral.
C
I think it was legitimately a funeral home. Lot.
B
Parking lot.
C
Parking lot. Yes.
B
Yeah.
C
And that is what all the Corvettes were lined up in.
A
The irony.
C
The irony.
B
I've seen the. The Corvette club because my dad was a part of it. He wasn't a part of it, but, like, you know, when he'd take his car out. So I. I'm. I'm well aware it is a funeral home.
C
Yep.
B
Parking lot.
C
Parking lot. We didn't park there. We. We just parked on the back, I guess. So I was.
B
He's got the fastest Corvette now. He's not parking with you peasants.
E
Yeah, exactly.
B
I think the best part about the Corvette club is all of them are bone stock.
C
Oh, yeah.
B
Just bone stock.
A
You're.
B
You're like. When you take a walk through. You just basically looking at the colors. Different colors. Yeah, like. Yeah, like, there ain't nothing done.
D
White interior.
B
There ain't nothing. It's okay. So he's got black with red interior. This guy's got red with black interior. Nice. Yeah. This guy's got window tin. Actually 50.
E
All of them feel like the way they rolled off the factory floor is just, like, perfect.
B
Yeah, just, like, into them. Just like it.
C
There was some, like, old cars that people had fixed up and stuff like that. There was actually some sick, different rat rods. There was the Tesla car thingy that I tagged you in. I don't even know what the hell was. It was, like, airplane pieces all put together.
B
When you go there, is it tough to walk around? Were people coming up to you all over the place?
C
There was. There was quite a few. Yeah. But it wasn't. I think if it would been, the whole crew would have been tough because you get really tough.
B
And if you would have rolled in and like. Like the Corvette still kind of incognito.
C
Yeah.
B
Like, if you pull up in Ben's lamborghini.
A
Yeah, exactly.
B
R8 or even, like, the GTR. It's more of, like, a niche vehicle that you don't see.
C
Yep. You.
B
There wouldn't be any of those there, and people would know. But, yeah, I've wanted to go for a while. I'm not trying to.
D
Yeah, I was, like, to be fair, if he was driving only.
B
I wasn't gonna be okay.
D
No, you weren't. If he was driving a Stingray, I completely agree, but I don't. Because he's driving.
B
No, I'm saying it's a. It's a very rare, unique vehicle. But, like, was there cars?
A
Like, I don't know, Like, Fargo has, like, the weakest car game of any big city.
C
There was a couple cool tuners, and when I say a couple, like, maybe. I was gonna say four. Like, there's four. And they were all in a line. I would say the main people there were, like, the old guys that have, like, 100 grand and some old Chevelle.
B
That'S, like, really more like old cars. But, yeah, fun to walk around. I've wanted to go for a while. It'd be fun to bring the GTR or, you know, have all of us pull up, but I just felt like it would turn into a meet and greet.
C
Yeah, I think. I think you'd be okay. And, like, like I said, I just parked on the street in the back. I just wanted an excuse to drive there, but I. I didn't need to park on the main street and all that.
A
Did you guys see our buddy Steve Hamilton's new Bugatti Chiron?
C
So cool. I watched that.
A
That guy has spent, like, $15 million in cars in the last three months.
B
Yeah, he's got. He's got money.
D
Yeah, dude. And that's good. Congrats to him. That's great.
B
So.
D
So, you know, they just released their new whatever, the turbulent or whatever. I don't know the name of it, but they are doing some marketing. I'm getting reels and suggested posts and legit. I swear, I got, like, an ad for it on Snapchat, and it's just.
A
Like, who the hell are they? Marketing order Mike orders 1.
B
They heard this guy's money Mike.
D
Like, Sydney scrolling.
A
Maybe they're just going after your ip. They just.
D
No, not just at.
A
This guy's been buying everything at Bugatti headquarters. There's just, like, you know, big red dots all over the world, and it's just one right over Mike's house. Like, just send all the ads to.
D
This guy they messed up because those.
A
Are wasted ad dollars.
D
No. Yeah, yeah, dude, there's so much money.
B
Well, they might have got the return. Now you're talking on the Podcast.
A
There we go.
D
It worked. They are cool. It is cool. It's 1800 horsepower. Like zero to insane. So what is that under two seconds?
B
So V16, V16 BI turbo, electric motors and electric.
D
No, na. But it has electric.
B
Really?
D
If I were to ever own a car like that, the worst part is, is like, clearly that's an insane experience to drive. It's like just such a work of art that I wouldn't want to. I don't know.
B
Yeah, that's the problem.
A
It is like most insane thing I've ever seen.
B
Even like, you start upgrading from this is a Benz Lamborghini to an Aventador, it's like double the price and you're kind of like, it's just so much to drive around. You're like, ah, it's raining today. I don't want to take it out. Ah, there's. There's little rocks on the road. Like, eh. I don't want to like rock chip it. At the pinnacle of that is. Is like Ryan's Corvette or Ben's Lamborghini right now. Like, anything beyond that is just like, you're gonna be cringing just driving it. Well, almost.
A
If I guarantee Steve Hamilton doesn't. He doesn't cringe when he's driving his Bugatti because it's the same as somebody.
B
Driving a Honda Civic.
A
Yeah, Honda Civic.
B
No. He fucking rips those things, dude. He's taking them in the snow in the rain. I mean, he, he let us take any one of his vehicles when it was raining and he was even care. He didn't care. It was icy. He's like, yeah, yeah, just let her rip.
D
Does he have like, detail guy? Yeah, that would help. I mean, still. I'm just saying. Yeah, it's like the whole like, am I gonna take it out in the.
C
Rain and that is dirty.
B
And then.
D
Yeah, I'm not saying gets cleaned every time that he gets it dirty either. Like, take it in the rain, gets dirty clean. I'm just saying, like, if you, if your cars get magically cleaned, that makes it easier. You're paying. But if they get magically clean, like, that's a way different story.
B
Those cars are pretty timeless though. I mean, I'll probably wrap, wrap up the conversation with that. I mean, some of them are. They're so timeless, it's just insane. Like even a Chiron or whatever, however you say is going to be cool forever.
D
Because that's, that was. That's their goal kind of right with it.
B
Yeah, yeah. They're like very particular with like the electronics they even put in them because they don't want them to like, age.
D
Yeah.
B
Out age. So they'll use like actual speedometers.
D
And first I thought that was a little Cheeto, but now I totally get it.
C
Did you guys see the thing on Instagram about the tribe that Elon Musk sent Starlink to?
B
Yeah, I did see that, bro. That's funny.
C
So Elon got him Internet tribe in the middle of wherever they are and they don't have much there by the looks of it, but now they got Internet and apparently they got addicted to their phones, porn and social media.
B
Yep.
D
That fast.
C
Can you, like.
B
The tribe leaders are all worried about it.
D
I guess they kind of skipped everything as far as experiences in life.
C
Think they didn't even have the radio. Yeah.
D
Yeah.
C
I mean, I don't know exactly.
D
You go from, like never riding in a car to. To having it's, you know, all of.
C
That world right here.
B
But I mean, that's. That's true to kids today, though. If you're born today, your whole life is going to be that way.
C
Yeah. Only probably gets worse, honestly.
B
It's. It's interesting though. I mean, I'd agree. The Internet does corrupt you.
C
Yeah.
B
Internally as a person, you know.
C
Yeah. It's just accessible. It's right there.
D
Well, I mean, yeah. When it really lost us was when Internet is built to be addicting. Because it wasn't always built that way.
B
True.
D
The Internet was the Internet. It was there to help you and it still is. But now the Internet, you know, Instagram, any social media built around addicting you to it.
A
It's true.
C
To keep you on it.
A
You know, it'll be a funny video bit is we go to that tribe and we like film like a little documentary, like a docu series of like showing how. How desolate the whole tribe is now. It's like a bunch of tumbleweeds rolling through. Like, where is everyone? Oh, yeah, they're in their huts scrolling their.
B
I think that might be one of those Ken ventures with a GoPro.
C
Yeah.
B
We'll send you Ken.
A
I think that would be.
B
You want to go.
A
Great series, Ken.
B
Like you travel the world with a GoPro.
A
With a GoPro and you interview people.
E
And Ryan just books me on the.
C
Sketchiest planes and I'll get you on like a decent.
B
I love it. I think that's showing it.
C
Start making money. So funny.
E
Such an interesting series to show people.
C
Can you imagine? Because like we almost none of us can. But like, you don't Speak any other languages or anything. You just be going in raw. Like, I don't even think. Could you walk around Germany? Like, it would be there.
E
You could, but Europe, you can. Like, most people speak English, but like.
C
In the trenches of Germany, not like tourist Germany. Like, you're going to Germany and trying to figure out, like the in depth stuff.
E
I mean, most of that's like, you can make stuff work, but, you know, you go to like, Asia, there's. There's no similar language are so dissimilar that you can't.
C
I love it. I can see it now.
B
So if we were to really make a show out of this, what we do is we have a camera crew that won't even say a word to Ken. They follow him and he's just got this GoPro and he's kind of like, are we even using this footage?
A
Like, whatever.
B
But they're filming him. Well, you know, really good. And then we actually got a real show out of it, you know.
C
Oh.
B
Because the GoPro ain't gonna cut it if we're really trying to launch this show. When can you leave Ken?
C
Realistically, as long as he's got starling dude, he can just print the orders right to the back.
D
That's true of this show and still send the.
A
That could be like a B bit for it. You know, like, the first part is him, like, traveling, getting there, doing the interview, and then the second part is like him trying to live his life back here. Yeah. Remote.
B
Maybe get a Starlink sponsorship.
D
We get some comments back from the show. Love, love all the interviews and the seeing the life. But no more of the order stuff. That's boring.
A
Really don't need to see you doing.
C
Customer service for the first one. We'll send you with Jake and then maybe he can help with that tribe. You can try to get him not addicted to social media and he'll try to get him to stop jerking off.
A
That's right. I wonder what's going for him.
C
I wonder how it is. I'm gonna call him, shout out to.
A
Everyone that had his back. Yeah.
D
Do you guys ever worry if you say, right, happen.
B
You still jerking off?
A
Yeah. Jake's the king of cap.
C
Jacob.
D
Yes.
C
Are you still jerking off?
D
No, I'm not.
C
I. I don't do that.
B
Right. Still.
C
We know this. Wow.
B
You don't jerk off anymore. Like, you're done not jerking off or you jerk or you just don't jerk off at all. I just.
C
I just don't. I just don't do it, period.
E
How long has it been?
C
I don't know, like, probably since last September or so. I don't know the exact day.
A
What do you think? I got a calendar Mark. I think we're catching them in a lie. That's what I think.
C
No. Good job, buddy.
E
It's been a long time.
C
Good job, buddy. We're proud of you. There's a tribe in Africa that got addicted to jerking off. We're going to send you and Ken down there, okay?
D
Okay.
C
I was really curious on why you.
A
Guys were talking about jerking off, but.
C
Now I understand there's a backstory.
D
Yeah.
C
All right. See you later, buddy. Proud of that guy, you know, Takes a lot of self control.
A
I was talking to this guy last week actually, that is a part of the church in some manner, but spent a ton of time in Africa and he said like, you wouldn't believe how many people have like nothing, but they.
B
Still have a phone.
C
Interesting.
A
He was like, yeah, everyone. Everyone had a phone and they're living in mud teepees.
B
How do they charge it?
A
That's what I'm wondering.
D
It is, it is odd. I remember when I was in Mexico on the missions trip, it's like people like legit have cinder block houses without roofs, just walls, but they got a phone.
B
What, so like smartphones?
C
Like. Yeah, like iPhones?
D
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They weren't iPhones, but razors, flip phones, smartphones. I don't know what the hell they were, but they weren't iPhones.
B
They're probably like. Yeah, just almost for safety though.
D
Yeah. And Facebook, a lot of like Facebook, really crazy.
A
Did you link with a couple of them?
D
Yeah, they were like, we have three friends on Facebook.
A
Oh, really?
D
Sure, yeah, yeah. But yeah, they all like Facebook. But yeah, it just. It is to your point. You're right. They really like hyper focus on obtaining a phone.
C
I mean, I guess it's your connection to the world.
D
Yeah.
C
The only time I went on a mission trip, we went to South Texas. So it was not like going wherever you went. But we were painting these people's houses in like Section 8 housing to help them out. And then they got home and one of them was holding a brand new Xbox360 when they just came out and they went inside, played FIFA on a big TV, like a 55 inch flat screen TV while we painted the house. And then we're like, this system is.
D
Yeah, well that's on. Yeah. Whoever lined that up, it was like.
C
A whole neighborhood that was all like, section eight, whatever, you know.
A
Well, imagine how they felt Ryan, so.
B
They'Re just trying to.
D
At least it was free.
B
Remedy the situation.
C
Yeah. They're like, we can't focus on this.
D
The stuff you're doing, you're actually bringing, like, from nothing to something.
C
Yeah.
A
You're just.
C
I mean, the house. Yeah. Was like, just throwing up. We're doing sheetrock in some of them. Painting.
A
Wait, so what's the. What's the gist of going on the mission that you went on?
D
I think, yeah, same. Just to help.
A
But as. As the church, they're saying, like, this is like, God wants us to. To help these people that are less fortunate. Or like, how. How are they, like, selling everyone to, like, come with on this mission?
D
Yeah, pretty much. Yeah. You go there, you there, you get in contact through, like, a missionary, and then they're like, this is where I am. It's going well. But, you know, we got a lot of work ahead of us. And then they link up with a church and then you go help them do stuff.
B
Like, how long are you there working?
D
Like, a week.
B
And how much work are you really doing?
D
You're pretty much working, like, five of the seven days, let's say.
A
And you're actually creating something that is worth doing, like.
D
Yeah.
A
How good of a job are you doing versus I can just imagine, like, the church has a bunch of people that don't know what they're doing. And then at the end of it, you got this project that's just half put together.
D
Yeah. So much of it there was, like, so crude that it was, like, pretty easy, like you said. Okay, we need to build another building.
A
So it's a church a lot of times. Just like a helping hand. Yeah.
D
It's like. So I'm just, like, walking cinder blocks from the truck to the site.
C
Yeah.
A
And they just. They just parked it down the road to make you feel better about being there.
D
A lot of it was like. It's a lot of manual labor.
A
Yeah.
C
You're normally just a hand because there's not like an excavator. So if they got a hole to dig.
B
Dig the mic in an excavator.
C
No, no, that's what I mean.
E
There is.
C
He is the excavator. You just have to dig with the shovel. I mean, I was doing drywall when I was down there at like, 15.
A
Like, did you know how to do drywall?
C
Fuck no. It was awful.
B
Where were you at?
C
South Texas. Some, like, border town.
D
But I also think, like, people are real sweet. It's got to be really bad for Them to be like, we don't need to help, you know?
C
Yeah. I mean, but I know I did a bathroom in, like, know you trim out around, like, the outlets and stuff, and it's supposed to be, like, tight, and there was big gaps. Like, they would have had to redone it for sure. It was bad.
E
I feel like some of these places, it's like there's a new group coming in every week.
C
Yeah, it's a. It's new.
E
It's almost, like, built for that kind of stuff where there's people coming in.
C
Yeah.
E
Because there's always something wrong.
C
Yeah, for sure.
A
We go into the merch band. Ken's got a mission, thinking that fill in merch.
D
Oh, yeah. A lot of it is just cleanup, making the neighborhood look better.
E
Because, like, the one I did, we painted a school. And it's like, this school has clearly been repainted in the last, like, six months.
D
Oh, really?
C
Every week.
B
Every week, they're throwing a new paint job.
D
So that's this.
A
That's what I want.
D
That's so whack.
B
No, they're not doing that. I'm sure they're particular about what's getting.
C
Yeah.
A
What do we do with this? What do we do with this big guy? Have him go paint the wall. Yeah. Kids over there, paint the wall. All right, what do I do? Well, it's gonna need another coat.
D
Yeah, they just like, all right, I'm.
A
On my 11th coat.
D
A reoccurring job or house or whatever that they put people that don't know.
E
What they're doing on, like, okay, this group left. Okay. We got to mess it up again. This is the next group has something to do.
A
Yeah, Somebody or they come in with, like, a baseball bat.
C
I saw this thing on TikTok. I think we're all going to like it. Mike, I think you're going to like it even more. So today we're going to be making some hot dog bacon live on air.
D
Hot dog bacon.
A
I saw this as well.
D
It looked really good. Threw me off. When they started, like, potato shaving the hot dogs a little bit. I'm like, I don't know about that. And then they put them in the air fryer. This is really doing.
B
I'm actually really interested.
D
I'm all grilling Ryan before this. I'm like, what the heck do we have two air fryers up here for? Like, actually, like, oh, wow.
B
Yeah. I got a show coming from the.
D
Guy that put the pizzazz in his room.
B
Right. I saw the true Mike did have A pizzazz.
A
I forgot about that. Period of time the house down multiple times.
D
No, sir, that's a false statement that you just made up.
A
Ken, is that true? Did he almost burn the house down?
E
Did bring ants into the basement?
A
Almost worse.
D
Yeah. Just because I come into the basement with a pocket full of ants doesn't mean you have to accuse me of.
B
Almost burning one time, though, Mike, I will say the closest time you were ever to burning the house down.
D
Keep in mind, you guys do a poor job of telling me this, because I didn't know that I almost burned the house.
B
Yeah, he was sleeping. So you came home late, and you must have been really tired because you left the door wide open. And then you went down to your room and you lit a candle and then passed out on your bed. But when you lit the candle, there was this box of Kleenex is, like, dangling above the. Pretty sketchy. And I like, you know, I didn't even know you were there because you never really come there. So then, like, I was like, what the. Why is the door open? And then I go and, like, close the door, but then I see your cars out there. I'm like, oh, Mike's here. And then I went downstairs. You had a candle lit because you had your window open, too, actually, that. So there was like, the whole house is freezing. That's why I went downstairs and I opened the door, and you have this box of Kleenexes dangling above a candle. And that was the closest, I think, you've ever been to burning the house down.
D
I mean, that's pretty close.
C
Hmm.
D
Let's go.
B
Yeah.
A
Okay. So we have to do this ourselves.
C
We do.
B
We do this.
C
All part of the cooking show.
D
That's how cooking works.
A
I've seen this, actually. I've seen, like, the beginning of this video on. On Instagram.
D
Yep. And you scrolled away because it was scary.
A
The first part of it just made me uncomfortable.
D
Yeah.
B
Could you pass away?
A
Mike's eyeing these up.
B
I know. All right, Mike, you can't eat these right now. You can have the one that's on the ground, but nothing else.
D
Just.
B
These are for skimming. We're doing bacon, I think a nice, comfortable.
C
I didn't. I don't really don't like that.
E
No.
D
Well, that's how you do it.
C
I know, but it's just. It's like a hot dog.
B
I'm actually looking forward to this.
C
Should be kind of fun.
B
Do you eat breakfast already, Mike?
D
Yeah, I had a couple pieces of pizza, a couple hot dogs. I brought some hot dogs for lunch, actually. They're brats, but throw a dog over.
C
Here, and we'll get Ben on the peeler.
B
Your dog. Here, take this one, Ryan.
C
Thank you.
B
Kind of weird grabbing it like. Like, if you grab your hot dog like this, it's just weird, dude.
A
Okay, there you go.
B
Like, imagine you take a bite. Like, oh, yeah.
C
Okay. Yeah, it's working pretty good.
D
So potato peeler on the dog.
B
These in these some strips.
C
I got the good hot dogs.
B
These are cheese.
C
Oh, you eat them. We'll have to watch the chewing in the mic.
B
No, but they weren't pretty. They were pretty good.
D
That was a definitely subtweet at cj.
B
Yeah, I was chewing.
C
Right.
D
To watch the chewing on the mic.
B
Do we have any more banana, or.
C
What are these, I believe are potato peelers. And that was all the C store had, unfortunately, so we got to share.
A
So this is just pork. Like, this is just a.
B
That's what a hot dog is, Ben.
A
Yeah, but this is just like, manual labor bacon.
C
Yeah, I mean. Yeah.
D
I mean, gonna have a little bit of a different taste.
B
Some people make their bacon from scratch, so that's manual labor bacon. But, I mean, when you buy it pre made, Mike started making his own hot dogs. That's manual labor hot dogs. That's a labor of love.
A
That's the fun part.
D
I load my own bullets. I build my own hot dogs.
C
Load your own bullets.
D
Yeah. It's just cheaper to do it that way.
C
Not bad.
E
Rock calls them.
C
This is harder than it looks.
D
Yeah. This is not easy.
B
Mike's doing a great job.
C
Mike, have you made this before?
D
No, I just. I literally. I saw this, and I was like, that looks kind of good, but also really unhealthy.
B
Eggs and hot dog. Bacon. Eggs, eggs and hot dog.
D
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Morning. Yeah, that's another thing I guess I didn't think about having in the morning. It just looked like a good snack. That's what I thought. One time, Dalton, our filmer, was like, hey, you want some hot dog chips? And I was like, hot dog. I don't know if he called that. And then he just, like, opens up a Tupperware of basically the same thing, but they're just cutting the, like, little hockey pucks, and they're just like. Look like they got cooked in the air fryer. They weren't that good, dude. The cores are kind of gross.
C
Oh, gosh. I do not like that.
B
Kind of looks like a banana core or apple core. Why did I say banana?
C
It's Kind of fun. No, I was like, oh.
A
I mean, sucking on my fingers.
C
I. I. Making it. Making a podcast is. Is hard, you know? Like, you got to find things to do, things to talk about, stuff like that. And I feel like in the thing of talk shows and stuff like that, you eventually have to hit the cooking subject. Yeah, I'm actually gonna cook.
B
I like this. Brought lunch today.
C
Yeah, me too.
D
Cooking is always fun, whether it's from a professional or someone who has no idea what they're doing because they might bring something new to the table, or they might just do something normal. Really, really wrong and funny.
C
Goodness, we got a professional over there.
B
I really don't enjoy cooking, but I think part of that, because I don't know what I'm doing, what I do enjoy is grilling. I've actually gotten pretty good at grilling. Just steak, primarily.
A
Have you grilled anything else?
B
No, not just any corn. I've done some burgers. I've grilled some burgers. No, I did chicken, and I guess one time it seemed like it got burnt. Like, I'm just dialed on the steak. Like, I know exactly how long to leave it, and it just comes out perfect.
D
It makes it way more fun because that's how it was at first to, like, throw a steak on. No idea.
B
Crab shoot.
D
And then once you start getting the idea of when to flip it, you're like, this is amazing.
B
The thing is, is, like, every grill is different, and, like, there's a lot of factors, really.
A
Are we doing hibachi this weekend for your birthday? Mike? That's always fun.
D
If you guys want to come, that'd be awesome.
A
Where are you doing it?
D
At my house in Fargo. No.
A
Okay, yeah, I'll be there.
D
Hell, yeah.
C
Who's cooking?
D
Probably either me or Tint.
A
Yeah, you gotta get tint on, though.
B
He's the. He's the music.
D
Yeah, he. Dude, he's. He kills it. All right, I think we're ready.
B
You're not gonna do the cores a little better or what?
D
I don't know how. I'm just.
B
Can't get in. You can't get in there any better. This is just skin, bro. We're just eating the skin. I don't know, kind of bacon.
D
Just cook these cores, I think.
B
I knew you'd say that. Doesn't want to waste the hot dogs.
D
Real quick, I need some paper towels. All right, let's get these in the air fryer.
B
Here, Ben, try a little piece.
A
Honestly, I'm good, dude.
B
Yeah? Yeah, have a little piece. Ken, you don't need a dog.
D
Not liver and onions.
B
Liver for one is good for you.
A
For you, but not taste what tastes like ass.
B
Oh, there we go.
A
Pop these bad boys as well.
B
Throw the rest of them, and I'll have a couple dogs.
A
Dude, nothing triggers Mike. Like Aaron is dirty. Dirty business with the hot dogs.
B
Yeah. Or burning the house down. He didn't like that.
A
Yeah, he doesn't like that.
B
God, it just makes me not want to eat them when I see you just handling them with your hands. Ryan. I'm just. Yeah. I don't know how much I trust the air fryer as a cook. It's not like an oven.
D
Well, as a germaphobe, I am not surprised.
A
Oh, she's making me uncomfortable looking at these hot dogs like they're just stripped.
B
Down naked and afraid. A chauffeur. Hot dogs that are on a plate in front of Mike.
C
Dogs.
B
It's like that one movie. Remember that hot dog movie? Isn't it?
A
No, it's.
B
It's. What's that movie?
A
Yeah, what's. What's the animated. It's just sausage, dude.
C
They're coming out with another one, a sequel.
B
Really?
A
Really?
C
Yeah. They just.
B
Just in or. No.
C
Yeah, throw them in. I just wanted. Then you can do it with your hand. Have you seen the, like, teasers?
D
No.
C
Oh, my God. Brutal. I mean, it. It's typical. It's funny. It's exactly like Sasha's party. But they're, I think now, like, the food takes over and then, like, rain comes.
B
That's a real thing, though.
A
You.
B
You make a movie so bad that people start talking about how bad it is. They're like, oh, my gosh. Like, there was this movie tire that was on.
C
Oh, yeah.
D
There's, like, different.
B
Oh, my God. Have you ever seen that movie Higher?
A
It's the worst movie I've ever seen. Gillis.
B
No, that's Tires. Oh, this is, like, just about. Literally. There's no talking. It's just this.
D
I thought the movie tire was, like, really?
A
Oh, that just, like.
D
Yeah, I thought. You're talking about, like, sexy red Music is so bad that you got to talk about sausage parties.
A
So is.
B
That doesn't apply to us. But. But, like, it's a real marketing.
D
I'm talking about.
A
You're mad because I.
D
Shut up.
A
I made the hot dog come.
D
No, I had you heard me. No, I'm not talking about, like, bad. Like, in a bad way. I'm talking about sausage parties, so.
C
Oh, like, dirty, Dirty.
D
You can't not Talk about. That's where I thought you were going. But you just.
B
That's another. That's another form of it. So, like, you can go different routes. So, like, you could be just so outrageously, like naughty, like swearing every word. But if you do something like that, if you just flat out make it so stupid that like, people start talking about, like, have you seen that. That movie Tire or Hot Dog Fest or ever Sausage Fest. And then they're just.
D
Those can't be. Yeah.
B
And then. And then people are like, I. I hear this movie is terrible. I actually, I need to see why it's so bad. And then they start watching it. Like, it's kind of a form of marketing for sure.
A
Marketing to it, for sure.
B
I mean, it's just down to the beginning of it. You just start with a terrible movie or maybe, who knows? They just make the movie and they get done. They have it all chopped up and edited and they're like, this is terrible. What are we gonna do? We got all this money into it. How are we gonna make people watch it?
A
Pretend like we tried to make it bad?
B
Yeah, yeah. One or the other. I mean, that's part of the play though. People sit there and they're like, I wonder if they tried to make it this bad or if this was. Who was this?
C
What was the point of the tire movie? I never watched just like, never watch.
B
Rubber dude and this like, tire, you know, literally just a tire. No. No rim, no wheel, nothing.
C
Wow.
B
And just like starts rolling off this like big stack of tires and it starts rolling around. Killing people.
C
Oh, it kills people.
B
Yeah. I'm not mistaken, but one. It was like in high school. I watched it. My buddies were sitting there thinking it was so funny.
D
They're all.
B
They're all stoned and they're like, this is so funny. I'm like, this movie sucks. They thought it was funny.
C
Like, no, you gotta understand it.
B
They thought it was funny that I didn't like it. Suddenly we kept watching thing. It's like, like an hour and a half in. I'm like, all right, let's wrap this thing up. I might as well stick it out now.
C
They're like, we gotta watch it again. It's funnier the second time.
B
Yeah.
A
Ah, it smells like hot dogs.
B
I don't smell anything. Are you serious?
A
Maybe it's going this way. It smells like Teflon.
B
When I got.
D
Yeah, I was like, it just smells like brand new air fryer to me. Which is kind of a gross smell. Plasticky Bernie, smell Something is like, smoky.
B
Is coming out of that thing. Yeah, it's a little smoking. We're making bacon.
D
Dude got a sticker on there.
E
Oh, it's like brand new out of the box. I don't know if anyone took everything off.
B
I did. There's still some plastic in there, but that's fine.
C
That's fine.
E
Microplastics, the flavor, you know.
B
Are they looking it delicious?
D
Yeah.
A
I mean, it looks like a bunch of cut up hot dogs.
C
Have you seen. You guys seen the videos on Instagram where they. It's like the tires and they come off a truck and then they, like, almost hit somebody, but then, like, just by pure luck, the person doesn't get hit.
D
I have seen those. And then I've also seen the ones where they do make contact. And that's not as fun.
C
Well, that's the whole thing. Now, did we talk about this? Where they put like a long AI generated definition of something and it like, throws off the algorithm and it'll just be like a picture of someone dying.
D
Yeah.
C
Or a video of it. Yeah, I'd be like a video of like a guy in a paraglider and then it like, breaks and then he falls on video and then it'll be like. Thanks for asking. The Mercedes CLX is this car, and it's just a bunch of information.
B
Why did someone want to put that on the Internet?
D
I don't.
B
Why does someone want to watch that?
D
I don't know. Yeah, it's.
B
Let alone put it on the Internet.
D
Videos of people dying. I just. I could always go without 100% of the time. But, yeah, I saw a pretty wild one. And then it was just the description of, like, the 2018 Dodge Ram. And then it, you know, that's how it's like.
B
They're tricking it into making people have to see it. Like, it's kind of just a. It is a fucked up thing to do in your head.
D
Yeah, it is a little messed up.
B
That goes back to what we were saying about the Internet earlier. Like, you start getting exposed to all these things and it just desensitizes you. Or it screws you up. Next thing you know, you're addicted to corn.
C
Maybe another minute or two.
B
All right.
C
You guys like your bacon crispy? Yeah.
D
Yeah.
B
All I know is I trust a man grilling in jean shorts.
C
George Summer.
B
Whatever you say. And hot dogs are a hot topic. I know this podcast.
C
I know. I kind of. I wanted to be ready. Yes. Or last week when we start talking about hot dogs again. And I didn't want to bring it up for two weeks.
B
No, I. I'm not saying this is bad at all. I'm just, like, laughing, man. It's amazing how much content we have off hot dogs.
D
So much. And I. And I somehow am the one talking about them the least. Because you're busy. That's funny.
A
That's a good job in your mouth. You don't like to mix business and pleasure.
D
But I do. That's why I work at Seaboys tv.
C
All right, I think the hot dog bacon is ready.
D
Does it. Did it curl up like it did on.
B
Let me see it. I'll give it a try. Wow, it does look like bacon. Wow. They really. There's not much left here. Was I looking the other way and someone ate some of that here when I was cooking.
D
Well, you know how bacon works.
B
It felt like it was full. Put it in.
D
There's like, three. I thought the same thing.
B
You have to split this.
D
You put a lot of bacon in the pan and not that much comes out.
B
This looks phenomenal.
A
When you go on, like, a first date and the girl asks, oh, do you know how to cook? Yeah, I'm really good at making homemade bacon.
D
It kind of tastes like bacon.
A
Okay, I'm doing it.
D
This is the budget bacon. This is 100% budget bacon. This is like the equivalent of making nachos in the microwave. And when I say nachos, I just mean tortilla chips with cheese microwaved on them. That's like the equivalent.
E
It just tastes like really chewy bacon.
B
I think it just tastes like a hot dog skin to me, bro.
D
I could eat that for breakfast. I mean, obviously, I think it's good. Obviously, but it's good.
C
It takes a little effort.
D
I don't know. You guys have cooked bacon before on a pan. Lot of grease everywhere, you know, and if it's not, you know, if it's your oven or it's.
B
If it's.
D
You're not your oven or whoever it is. Like, a lot of grease everywhere. And that's what I've always hated about bacon. As well as you can cook bacon in the air fryer, too, huh?
C
Camera back for seconds.
B
Oh.
A
Oh, he's just eating the dog.
C
Is that a raw dog?
A
He's just eating a raw dog. Kenzie, raw dog.
D
He's eating the dog core.
C
Is that the cooked one or just the raw one?
E
I mean, it's.
C
It's.
E
It's. It's a skin dog.
C
Okay, so it was the one that was in the air fryer.
D
Yeah, I'm gonna need some more of that.
C
Well, that was fun. Now you got a nice new meal that you can make on the weekends, Mike.
D
Now we know it's good.
B
Yep.
D
Definitely gonna be running that one back.
B
I liked it.
C
Yeah.
B
Interesting, man. So that was a trend on Tick Tock.
D
Yeah.
C
And then.
D
Yeah. And so many people thought it was so insane. And I'm like, well, I mean, it really is. Just cutting a hot dog up and cooking it.
A
Versus.
B
Yeah.
D
Yeah.
C
You've read peeled grapes. No, shit's the bomb. So really, I haven't.
A
So good. What?
D
Yeah, I forget where he was. In like some sort of fancy fruit salad or something.
B
That's insane.
C
Yeah. I don't know. I'm sure there's a machine that does it, but you just gotta grab it and like peel it. Takes a long time, but it's been.
B
A while since I've eaten grapes.
C
I had some grapes, kind of like hot dog. It's like a kid food.
A
Grapes are good. Unless they have seeds.
D
Yeah. I was like. I was just gonna say. Then when I found out that seeded grapes existed, I'm like, why would you.
A
Ever spit the seeds out?
C
Yeah.
B
Interesting.
D
Why would you ever.
B
My favorite fruit is a banana. Throw some peanut butter on it. It's good.
D
It's because of the shape. That's why I love hot dogs so much.
A
Really?
B
I haven't really thought about that, but it is possible.
A
We're not going down this road. We're not going down this road again.
C
Not raining today.
D
What's your favorite food, Ken? Fruit. Sorry? Probably apple, right?
B
You're just saying that. I've never seen you eat an apple.
E
Because they're always gone, Ken.
B
You just didn't want to say banana because you thought maybe we'd think it was gay.
E
You already said banana.
D
Oh, wait.
C
You can't have the same two banana lovers in one house.
B
Yeah, that might be a little concerning.
A
I'm glad it's apple. Hopefully that's true.
D
What's your favorite, Ryan?
C
Oh, raspberries.
D
Really?
C
Yeah, the best, dude.
D
How about you, Ben?
A
Watermelon. Been housing a lot of it lately.
C
Watermelon is good. Watermelon's a close second.
B
I think watermelon is my least favorite fruit.
C
Really?
B
Tastes like nothing. Just tastes like. You just gotta have a better water. I've tried. You guys are, you know, a lot of water. That's what like tart water, you know, like, it's just like. Tastes like something's wrong. Dude, people have tried over my whole life.
C
Is it because you're worried. It's because you're worried that there's going to be a watermelon grown in your.
B
Belly slightly, but it just doesn't taste good to me. Just doesn't taste good. Least favorite fruit. All right. And loves it.
A
Yeah, everyone can have a wrong opinion.
B
No, I'm not saying it's wrong. I just don't like it.
A
Yeah, it's fine.
C
No, he's saying your opinion is wrong.
B
Oh, all right.
C
Well, anyway, I want you guys, two cousins fighting over some fruit. I was thinking about this the other day. Kind of random, but one of the most inflated things in the last couple years is houses. Right? Houses in 2010, especially bouncy houses. I'm not in the market, but nobody would know.
D
I'm trying to.
A
Shut your mouth over there.
B
Nobody would know more about bouncy price inflation than Mike. He was looking at getting one.
C
Have you. Have you purchased or are you in the market?
D
Yeah, they've gone up so much. Talking with Grandpa Ron over at Games to Go.
C
Oh, really?
D
They've gone up a lot.
C
I mean, obviously it's an investment buying one, renting it out and whatever, but, like, were you looking to get a personal bouncy house in the backyard? Yeah, that'd be sick.
D
Actually, Ken wouldn't let me.
E
I mean, he did buy the. The floating inflatable thing for the water.
D
And that's close enough.
E
Still sitting out in the field.
D
That was pretty cool. Fun while it lasted.
C
That was.
D
I ain't got time for that.
C
All right.
D
Yeah, go on.
C
Anyway, so I was. I was thinking about this, right? That houses have quadrupled in value, and.
D
I feel like it's price, not value.
C
Yeah, price.
B
Sorry.
C
I feel like it's really the golden. No, I. I appreciate that. This is comedy education.
A
Mike is like a real time auto corrector on your phone, correcting it in.
B
The way you don't want it to. You said you try saying corrects it to Doc.
A
Yeah, yeah. That is the best way to put Mike.
D
No, because, like, I just corrected Ryan, like, 100 legitimately, and I wasn't. And then he's like, no, actually.
A
Yeah, I know, but it's. It's when we're saying something, you go, no. And then you. And then you correct us every fucking time.
D
Every time, dude.
A
Every time.
D
I don't even let you guys talk around here.
E
It's mostly when they're trying to tell a lie for a story, and then it's like, no, thank you, Ken.
A
Thank you.
D
Yeah, thank you, Ken, for Clarifying. Tell a lie.
A
Some call it a lie. Others call it an exaggeration for entertainment purposes. Depends which end you're on. And Mike, you never seem to be on either end. You just put yourself in the middle.
D
And cause a problem ever. That's a lie.
A
All right, carry on.
B
Right.
A
About your house prices.
C
Well, anyway, what I was gonna say about. But I feel like we're so sideways now. But it was going to be about realtor commission rates. Those. That's got to be the most gravy job is being a realtor, except you.
B
Got to sell one.
C
That's true. But think about it. Being a realtor for five years ago, you would make. They're still making the same percent on every house, but now you're making three and a half percent off of like literally $75,000 plus more.
B
Yeah.
C
In, in, like in town.
B
You know, I agree with what you're saying. But also, everything has gone up with the housing. Like, everything is more, more expensive. Like, people are getting paid like 20 bucks an hour to work at McDonald's. That is interesting. It is funny too. Like, there's so many realtors in this area and they're all just trying to sell like the same houses. I was always so curious why they're like, thank you. Thank you so much for like, like whenever, like we buy anything, I'm like, oh yeah, whatever. Like, but because they're getting like freaking huge chunk of change most of the time when it's an expensive thing. Like if you were selling a million dollar house, what are you getting?
A
Well, it depends if you're double dipping. So if you're selling to the buyer and like the person buying energy brought in. Yeah.
B
6%, like saying you're making.
A
But if you're just selling it, that.
B
It'S 60 racks on a million dollar house.
D
And that's exactly to your point why it seems amazing. So you can get lucky as a realtor. You can get like, dude, this million dollar.
B
That's how they feel when we come walking around.
D
I got the spot to be able to sell the house. And then obviously if, like, let's say a buyer came around the next week that you're like, I got really lucky. But getting paid really good at McDonald's, like, you can't get lucky.
B
Yeah.
D
You know, you can't add into more than it is.
B
Yeah. If you're trying to compare, I just.
D
That's kind of what I'm saying is like everything's gone up, but still Realtors.
C
Yeah.
B
And I'm unlucky though and have the nuggets.
E
Yeah, there's also like that there's the house they sell in a week and yeah, you can bang that out. And there's also the house that sits on the market for four years and you're still trying to.
B
That's true.
C
100. I don't want it to be misconstrued that I think realting is easy or it's a gravy gig, anything like that. Because I know many of them and I know how much work goes into it. And I tried to buy a house once without a realtor and it was up really shit show. Yes. It's very difficult to do all the things. So they do a good job and they have a very good thing. So I don't want to get that misconstrued. I'm just saying it's a pretty good job because their wages have inflated. Yeah. So much. Like if the houses go up, your wages also get to go up. So that's kind of cool.
A
That's a good point.
B
I'd just be focusing on some rich ass homes. Well, I'd be like trying to sell big buildings and everything.
A
So the issue with that though is like the game of real estate or even when you're like selling a house is like you got a guy. So like everyone's got a guy.
D
Yeah.
B
So it's like be hanging out at the country club.
A
So yeah. I mean it's getting your foot in the door with somebody who doesn't have a guy. But if they don't have a guy, they're probably not doing big deals or buying nice things. So you're gonna be making a lot less money if you're selling like a $200,000 home. You know, you're still banking a good commission, but not as much if it was a two million dollar home where you could be like damn, I don't have to do much for the next three months.
C
Yeah.
A
So like that's, that's the problem with that is I believe that it's like a kind of who you know, situation. But yeah, it is interesting. Like there's so many homes in this area. So like we live in like a, like a lake home area. A lot of the people don't actually live here. So a lot of times they, they have like disposable income that they'll spend on, on these lake homes. It is insane to me how all of these homes around here are listed by like the same three people.
C
Yeah, like they got like a monopoly.
A
Dude, it is wild yeah. And I'm always like, I wonder what you'd have to do to like, get in there and get one of these homes. But I'd imagine when people are like, oh, I'm selling a $2 million home. I want it sold quick. I'm probably going to go to the person that sells all the $2 million homes.
D
Yeah, yeah.
C
Because they got the connections, they're selling. Yeah.
B
The other thing though is like, and I'm not trying to take away from realtors, but like, if you just put your house up on Zillow, most people that are looking for a house is going to see it nowadays. Right.
D
You got to wonder.
C
Yes.
B
Like, if a house popped up on the lake that was nice and the owners put it on Zillow and it was priced right.
C
But then you got to show it, you know, you got to be available. Like, there's. You got to take good pictures of it, which for us would be easy because we're familiar with the camera. But like, I. There was one down the road that went up for sale by owner and I was intrigued, so I called him to check it out. Never called me back. Eventually got through to him and he's like, I can send you pictures maybe next week. Like, he was an old timer. And I was like, dude, maybe next you should have just paid the money to have the realtor, because you are not doing a great job. Still for sale.
A
I think a lot of times like that too is a realtor is going to tell you that they're going to sell it for more than, than you would.
C
Yeah.
A
So like, that's probably true.
D
Yeah.
A
So the commission is going to just be, you know, you won't even notice it.
D
Yeah, that is true. And that, that's powerful thing for, for them and for other people doing deals. If you can get so much more and then you take off the top, then like, everybody's happy. But sure, it's like a lot of things. I'm totally cool outsourcing stuff until it is just like too much. I don't know what too much is, but, you know, it's like, I do it. I, I need the help. I want to pay you for that and then some to do a good job. But like, if it's just like, oh, you're making, yeah, $60,000 on this deal, like, but you only did $10,000 worth.
C
Of work, part of life.
A
You can also negotiate a lower rate.
C
On a bigger house fee.
A
I haven't heard it quite as much with like, residential properties, but like, when you're buying commercial properties, like, that's very.
C
Common part of the negotiation.
A
That makes sense because, I mean, if you're buying like a apartment complex or something like that, like, the rate's gonna.
B
Be a lot lower.
C
Switching gears a little bit. I was driving our truck, and I'd actually hopped out of. Out of my car or out of the giveaway R8, into our company truck, the big Ford. And I was like, damn, these vehicles are so different. But yet they're kind of at like a peak performance of their class. Right. Like, we've got the F250 diesel, and then you got the R8, which is a sports car. And I was thinking they should start putting sports car technology into these diesels.
B
How so?
C
For one, the valvetronic exhaust, like, right from the factory, you should be able to, like, flip a button and make your, like, diesel truck just a little bit louder than when you want to. You know, you tone it down. Obviously, the aftermarket world takes care of this.
D
I was happy they did that in the Broncos.
C
Oh, yeah, exactly.
D
I mean, it's nice.
C
It's extending in SUVs and stuff like that now, but I think they gotta start putting it in diesel trucks. Magnetic ride control, like, or something of the sort, you know, I'm sure they can do with airbags. But, like, you know, in the R8 or like Ben's car, you stiffen up the suspension. So it goes. They should. They should put that technology in freaking. The big trucks so you ride smooth when you're not towing, then you pump up.
B
I agree.
A
Yep.
C
But I was like, they could make these things way more sports car.
B
I'm sure they could. And I'm not trying to be devil's advocate here. I'm sure they could. They're already so expensive.
C
Yeah.
B
110 grand on a truck now.
C
Truck.
B
It's like, you start putting that in, what's it going to cost? 150.
C
Exactly. They'll probably work towards it, I'm sure.
B
Yeah, I'm sure they will. Especially with inflation.
E
But there's got to be a group of people out there that are willing to just buy the nicest, most expensive one with the most features.
C
Dude, I feel like they've just been testing that for the last however many years. They're like, fuck it, dude. I bet if we put massage seats in this thing, some idiot would buy it. And then now a ton of idiots buy it, and then they're like, what else can we put in this thing.
B
Dude, Most of the guys driving diesel trucks are like the richest dudes, you know, like, they're not ripping around an R8 or whatever just because they're working, freaking working for one. But like a lot of really wealthy guys just to get a new. Just top of the line truck every year.
D
And it is. And. And those are the same guys that obviously trucks are modified all the time. Big truck, do whatever. Build your truck. But I've heard so many guys that are just like, oh, yeah. I mean, I just keep her stock. Keep her stock. But if you have. Have 30, 000 bells and whistles on it.
B
Yeah.
D
Stock.
C
They're already so dialed now.
D
Yeah. Then they're happy.
C
I feel like just one company out there. Maybe. Maybe GMC has this. But just one company should hire somebody from a wheel designer brand and make good wheels for their truck.
D
Yeah, dude.
C
Like our F. Our F250 had just the ugliest wheels on it. And there wasn't many things that we. We didn't select in it. You know, like, how are they not putting good looking wheels?
A
And our wheels look a lot better than Mark's. Our friend Mark.
C
Yeah.
A
Was the same exact truck, but just a different wheel.
C
Even uglier wheel.
B
Yeah. It seems like every wheel pattern has almost been done, though. Like, when you start shopping for wheels, a lot of these manufacturers have damn near the same design.
C
Yep.
B
Like, they need to bring back spinners or something like that. That's what Evan needs. Spinners.
A
That'd be so sick.
C
They had a couple Caminos at the car show.
A
Really?
C
Yeah.
A
Were they dunked out Caminos?
C
They were not. They were.
E
Lord.
C
One guy did have a Harley in the back that was pretty sick. I have no idea how he got that thing up in there. Full bagger Harley.
B
Really?
C
Yeah.
D
Ramp.
C
I mean, I'm assuming he did. It was just sitting in there at the time. But yeah. Camino culture's back, dude.
A
I kind of want to get a car that's on hydraulics, though. Next. Oh, dude, I think that would be Facebook groups.
C
I've been looking. Dude. They're expensive.
A
Yeah, they're expensive because the fact that you can jump the car off the ground.
B
Yeah.
A
How much are they?
C
I mean, for like the base ones that don't even have the. Where you can jump because obviously there's like, you can tweak it, stuff like that. And then ones to bounce, I mean, are 60, 80 grand for basically a car that we would just bounce around with.
D
Yeah.
A
Get one for like 15.
D
Yeah.
C
Then it would maybe like be able to go up and it would be the $15,000 version of something that should be 60 grand.
B
Roll around on three wheels and.
A
Okay, that'd still be co. That would be cool. Put bigger batteries on it, though, and do it fast enough. Would it bounce?
C
Yeah, maybe. I don't really know that works.
B
It's amazing how many different car communities there are. You got the donks, you got the hydraulic bouncing, you got freaking stands. Yeah, yeah, people, of course, that is cars old school. There's so many. The Carolina squat.
C
Why did somebody say the South Carolina squad?
B
That's what Gavin called it.
C
That was freaking funny.
A
Yeah, lots of the Tesla guys, dude.
D
They just came out with like an electric boat, wake boat.
C
Now there's no way those things are going very far, right?
D
Dude, I. I don't know. It said you can drive at a slow pace for like 20 hours.
A
What do you think about that, Ken?
D
I checked it out and it was pretty sweet.
A
As a battery guy, though, you said like, avoid water at all cost.
E
In that, though.
A
It's like water plus battery equals fire.
E
Well, that's like something they. I would hope that they designed into it where and everything.
A
You're telling me that cyber trucks aren't able to drive through water? We got like, with a rain, when.
E
The rain is fine, but like, if you submerge a battery in water, like there's breather vents and you have to like put it in a special mode, otherwise the battery can fill with water and it shorts out.
A
Is that common?
E
There's videos of people that they drive in the boat ramp too far, and then the car floats away, and then it starts on fire.
C
Oh, that's super funny.
A
I love floats away.
E
No, it starts on fire, though.
D
Oh.
C
After it floats away, find a video of that. That would be fun to see. I love that. I follow this page on Instagram called the Qualified Captain. Now, going to like, Florida and stuff like that, like being on the lake, there's. There's boating etiquette and boating knowledge. But dude, you go down to Florida, that is cutthroat. Yeah. Like, they. The people down there know what's going on. And if you don't, you better be prepared to end up on this Instagram page getting made fun of. And they do a great job advocating for a lot of safety issues, but they always do that where like, basically what you do is you take a car that's too light, maybe just a rear wheel drive truck, you put the boat on the back right, Starts lifting up, the rear truck starts sliding in, it just hits the water and Then the. The ramps there are very deep because they have such big boats. And then before you know it, your truck is underwater and your boat's floating. It happens all the time.
D
The coolers. Everything in the truck floats.
B
Yeah, that's what we initially wanted when we did the Ford Ranger back before it was coming. Swapped was that for the boat to pull it all the way into the water. Like, we were, like, cool with that, but then it just stopped because, like, I don't know, the boat just, like, slowed it down. Holy. It's fire underwater.
C
Wait, is this a cyber truck?
E
No, it's a Model X. Whoa.
B
That is so weird. It's on fire in there.
D
Butterfly doors up. Fire.
A
So it's not floating?
C
Definitely.
E
How did they, like, backed into the boat ramp too far, and then, like, the whole car filled with water, and then, you know, don't have traction to get back out.
C
It's a very odd fire.
D
It's crazy.
C
It's just kind of on fire on, like, the top of the door.
A
That is bizarre. Look at the bubbler. Like, what's making it bubble like that?
E
The batteries are like. It's thermal runaways. The batteries are just on fire. It's just causing the next battery to start on fire.
B
That's insane. You can have a fire underwater. Never thought of that.
E
It doesn't need oxygen.
A
So how common is that? Like, if you were to fully submerge it, obviously.
E
But I mean, it's like any flood car, you don't want to buy that because it's.
C
I'm gonna find a video.
B
I haven't seen that screen.
A
I haven't either.
B
That was interesting.
A
Kind of gave me PTSD seeing that.
B
Oh, really?
C
What screen was it? I missed it.
B
The ship station.
A
Station for all the orders.
B
It was always kind of fun. Not fun, but, like, you know, you're just chipping away at it. But obviously it was not even close to the scale. Ken's doing this at Ken's crusher.
A
Yeah, Professional ship stationing. Be kind of fun to do boat ramp watching Down.
C
Oh, Florida.
A
I feel like you could really get rowdy people then.
B
You know, there's certain situations, though, where people are so good at, like, backing. Like, you know, if there's a fishing tournament, like, you know, all these guys are going to be dialed, putting their boat in and out.
D
Okay, so you know how, like, we build some crazy stuff on this channel? Yeah, like, a lot of crazy stuff. Maybe not the craziest, but, you know, and we've seen a lot on social media, but, like, dude, you know when you come across something and you just actually have no idea what is going on?
B
These guys are crazy.
C
The heck am I looking at? Pulled right on front.
B
I already know it's in India.
D
Do they just set out to build the weirdest thing ever, ever, ever, ever?
B
Do you ever seen them with the tall handlebars? Like the chopper bars? Like, these guys just are building the craziest shit. And I bet you they would love our videos.
D
That's what I kind of thought. That's where I was going. Like, just contraptions. But look at these handlebars, dude.
C
They're almost hitting the freaking telephone wires. That's huge.
D
Semi sharp.
B
So crazy.
D
Way over there.
C
Go to some of their other stuff. What are these guys like? They're building them.
A
Dude.
C
It just valid stank.
D
Iblis makes no sense.
C
I love this, dude.
B
I love how they have these like 18 million views.
A
What's up with all the wheel rollers there?
C
Yeah, what is that?
D
What is that?
A
That's so funny.
C
Is that powering it?
A
People probably look at like half the things that we build. Like what. What even is this?
B
We need to hire these guys.
C
Yeah, no kidding. Think they want to come to America?
B
We. We hire them. They come on. They don't know how to speak a lick of English, but Big Wrench and Gavin have to work with them all day.
D
No, no, no, no.
C
46 tires.
D
They look like they don't measure anything. They just weld.
C
I love that. Dude, they got drone shots. It actually looks kind of pretty over there. I feel like you never see the country as in the rural areas of these. Yeah. You know, like, that's what I imagine.
B
If we went there and did like a video with them.
A
We should.
B
Dude, India's really got like a motorsports community. Like they do those really fast canoes.
C
Yeah, the. The boat.
D
And they have. I. I showed this on one other podcast. I think they're. They're tricked out like rice. Like rice combines or whatever they are.
B
Oh, yeah.
D
It's the weirdest, weirdest scene ever. But yeah, they like harvest rice and they like trick their rice machines out.
C
Like with LEDs and they literally rice them out.
D
Yeah, literally rice out the rice. It's the weirdest thing.
A
Did Rich show you guys videos of. Of all the mopeds when he was over in India?
E
Yes, it was the wildest thing. Just seeing all those things just rolling around everywhere and like they can get like four or five people on these little tiny mopeds.
A
We gotta go experience that for a video, Ken.
B
I Think we just sent Ken, your GoPro is calling.
E
Maybe like, get an iPhone4. Just make sure it's like, really shitty.
A
For a while I got on like crawfish tick tock or Instagram, where I was just constantly getting recommended crawfishing videos.
B
So there's this.
A
Yeah, there's this guy that kind of just became a legend, I think, in the crawfish world. Or he's got a company, but he always makes, like, reels that I get recommended. So that's the only. Maybe, maybe there's many of them, but I only get recommended. This guy's. We got to go and do it. I think it'd be a great crawfishing.
B
Yeah, so it's.
A
Let me see what the guy's name is.
C
Yeah, I know. We'd also, on the same thing, we talked about noodling, and apparently when you go noodling for the catfish, people get bit by snapping turtles because, like, snapping turtles and catfish live in the same zone. So I'm really. Yeah, I'm a little bit weary of doing that noodling. Now.
B
You lose a finger or what's the consequences?
C
I mean, it depends. But in the case of this one, it's more like losing a freaking arm.
B
Geez Louise. There's that really good looking girl on Instagram that Hannah Barron likes to do the noodling.
A
All right, this guy, Louisiana Crawfish Company. Not a sponsorship. No, dude, he just. God, he makes crawfish and look so fun. Really can't imagine that it's a fun job to do. But, like, I've spent like an hour just watching these videos being like, man, after my YouTube stint, maybe I'll go be a crawfish farmer.
D
People eat these, right? Yeah, crawfish, yeah.
B
It's not.
A
It's a lot of work, though. So the thing about it is, you know when you sit down and you eat like, crab legs, right? Yeah, you have like three crab legs and you're probably good, but with these crawfish, like, you're putting in a whole shift just to have, like a decent meal.
B
Geez.
A
And I kind of love that, you know, like, you gotta. I think it's like a Southern thing, obviously, like Louisiana kind of showing. You know, our Midwest is showing. We're like, how do you even eat them?
D
No, I figured. I figured that's how you eat them. Like, just like a crab. But like, I mean, crab's amazing, but you don't get much food for what it is. So I can only imagine if you're in Florida.
B
And you're doing it. You don't. It's like you're doing so much work to get a little bit of meat. But if you go to one of the restaurants around here and get king crab legs.
C
Yeah, because they're just like a half pound.
D
So why are they bigger here?
C
I don't know.
B
It's Alaskan king crab. But down there they have more, like, just a different kind of crab. So they're a lot smaller. But, dude, I'm not kidding you. So good. I've been having crab, like, once a week.
D
If there's any three guys I could sit on a podcast with, they like more crab more than you guys. I'd be very.
B
Probably not.
A
Well, dude. Yeah. Last time we were in Florida, I.
D
Think we hit crab, like, every night.
A
Yeah, every night. And we were there for, like, five nights. So, yeah, it was a lot.
D
A lot of crab.
A
Yeah, it's a lot of crab. So fire though.
C
All this talk is making me hungry. And all I've eaten today is that hot dog. Bacon. And as good as it was, could just.
D
Could use some more of that.
C
Wasn't that filling? So, Mike, we'll leave the air fryer set up for you. You can cook some hot dog.
D
We got a bunch of new stuff on the website. New stuff every week. Yeah, we get. The website's just packed full. So go check it out. Get entered to win the R8 bunch.
A
Stuff this sign, wheelie, street sign, 69 speed limit sign right there.
E
A bunch of in the next two weeks.
C
There you go.
D
So go check that out. Thanks. If you've already gotten entered. Thanks for watching the videos. Thanks for watching the podcast.
C
See you next week.
D
See you next week.
A
Peace.
Episode Title: Micah's New Favorite Snack, What Rich Guys Drive, & The Job That is Paying Crazy Money
This week, the CboysTV crew (CJ, Ben, Ryan, Ken, Evan, and Micah) dives into a classic mix of antics and insights: from wild snack experiments and car talk to speed dating adventures and real estate musings. Fans get a behind-the-scenes look at how video concepts develop, business and job talk, and plenty of shenanigans about snacks and car culture. The crew's authentic banter keeps the episode light while touching on deeper themes like social media's global impact and the inflation of both house and hot dog prices. (And yes, there’s a live “hot dog bacon” tasting.)
The CboysTV crew delivers their signature blend of bro humor, off-the-cuff observations, and sneaky real talk about business and internet culture. Their conversations flow from genuinely useful insights (casting, car buying, real estate inflation) to the delightfully absurd (“hot dog bacon,” TikTok stunt reviews), always maintaining a playful and slightly irreverent tone. The episode is perfect for fans looking for laughs, storytelling, and a window into both Midwest lifestyle and YouTuber hustles.
