I think I've never said this. So imagine it's Christmas, we're all minding our own business, and then everybody starts texting you. Watch this video, watch this video, watch this video. I'm like, I'll get to it later, I'll get to it later. And eventually I watch the video and I start texting everybody, watch this video, watch this video, watch this video. Next thing you know, it becomes a top 10 most viewed video. Some are saying top 5. Some are saying top 10. Nearly 150 million views after being uploaded a day after Christmas. And he created so much havoc that he made journalists stop working. Start working. Come on. Why would you do such a thing? CNN had to work. They came after him yesterday. Everybody's trying to find that. They call him Maga, YouTuber, they call him Islamophobe, they call him all this other stuff. Listen, why don't you just fly down here, let's sit down, do a podcast and talk about what you just did. And we have the one and only Nick Shirley in the house.

Yeah, it's been the craziest week of my life these past week or so.
B (1:24)
So. So I want to. So I want to learn about you. But first tell us why has it been the craziest week of your life? This week?
A (1:30)
Yeah. So I've been doing YouTube and doing what I've been doing for years now, for at least two years consistently at this point. But this week I've hit a new level as far as what I produced and put out on the Internet is the most viewed video by any other creator that's not named Mr. Beast for a long form video. Like, seriously. Seriously. I've never seen a video at 131 million views on X.
B (1:56)
How many followers when I watch it? When you first posted, you had a couple hundred thousand followers on X. Where are you at now now?
