And I have had one of those mornings, dude. But the weird thing is I have the craziest morning in the world. I'm not late. I don't know how that works.
- [02:08]
Tyler
Yeah, you're on time. Almost. I went. I was gonna talk, but I. I left it. I went stream yard and I looked at the week you were gone. And the start times on every real or Every episode was 11am on the dot. And then you can see the week, the next week it's 1104, 1103, 1102. But whatever, we're here, right? We're here.
- [02:29]
Mike
I had to bring a bunch of equipment in from the night shift studio.
- [02:32]
Tyler
Oh yeah.
- [02:33]
Mike
And while doing so, a table fell over, which was completed with beer bottles and wine glasses. And it's still out there. I can smell it from in here. The foot table, the middle table with the. An elbow on each. I took one mic off and of course it by doing that ruined the stability. And then I was going to get the backlight and like bumped it with my Leg hair and it went flipped and everything on. It's all over the floor out there. Beautiful now, like, man, that's my morning so far. That's the cap of my morning. So it's just, it's. It's been a.
- [03:10]
Tyler
We're here, we're a week, another week, Life is good, things are great.
- [03:15]
Mike
What the going on. Like this Iran Eric shot.
- [03:21]
Tyler
Yeah, Cece was in there. I know he's up in New York, but he was saying that there's stories coming out that nothing can be verified yet that an F15 got shot down in southern Iran and that they're like scrambling for Iran, scrambling to go like, capture the pilots. But we don't have any update or any news on that yet.
- [03:41]
Mike
That's the hard part, man, is reporting, trying to. I mean, everybody probably goes through it, trying to report something. You don't want to be the last one because obviously nobody waits until it's verified because then that's old news. But, you know, everybody's saying CC was the first one to break it over, you know, David Hookstead and all those other pages.
- [04:00]
Tyler
While in flight.
- [04:03]
Mike
Yeah, mid flight.
- [04:05]
Tyler
But yeah, we have nothing to confirm it. So what is it?
- [04:09]
Mike
Just like somebody made a rumor up, like, well, there's got to be an initial source.
- [04:12]
Tyler
There's got to be. Yeah, there's got to be validity if it's being talked about on the open source or Secret Squirrel area. So nothing yet. I keep checking.
- [04:22]
Mike
So one thing I was going to talk about is, is I'm going to pull it up, actually. So we always talk about, you know, streaming live. We're a broadcast, we want to stream live. That's our big thing. But download this image real quick. Boom. I'm getting good at this producer stuff.
- [04:52]
Tyler
I did my.
- [04:54]
Mike
So I've always said that, you know, when we're able to stream live on audio platforms is when we'll be able to really be effective. Like, we are so limited on only being able to stream live on like YouTube and in social media platforms because in all reality, we're conditioned to listen to the radio. Anybody in our generation, maybe not our kids, because they don't know what a radio is and they, you know, maybe XM satellite radio is something that they know. But there's this thing called FM radio we always used to listen to and you put it on the background at. You put it in your car, you don't have to listen to the whole program. Some radio shows in the morning, like four or five hours long, you know, you just, it's there, you get you. You listen to it when you can. And we're so limited by only being able to do it on video platforms and, and nobody wants to keep YouTube open. There is some hacks. Gator showed me a hack that you can kind of keep YouTube closed while you watch it. But you know, so I asked when will we have the availability to stream. And then you can't see the rest but live on Spotify. And it says Spotify currently does not have a dedicated live streaming feature for general users as the dedicated Spotify Live app was shut down April 2023. While the company has integrated some live audio features for exclusive programming and is exploring video podcast, no specific date has been announced for a general return of live streaming functionality. I have my theory on this, we've talked about it many times is the fact that the AM FM radio industry, which the FM radio I want to say is owned by like five major companies, maybe less are not letting this happen because you can literally like I Heart Radio kind of does it like if you grew up in like you grew up in Jersey, right? And you had a radio show, I know you were really young because you have you listen to Monsters of Rock or Monsters of Radio here. But let's just say there was affiliate, there was a Jersey show that you really like. I Heart Radio allows for you to listen to that radio station live. That's about as close as we've gotten. But when FM radio is no longer a thing, the industry is going to flip and they're not allowing this to happen. And I always use this example and as much like when Uber came and destroyed the taxi service overnight, lower prices, more logistically available provided jobs for a lot of people. Like Uber took over it seemed like in overnight and made the taxi service irrelevant. And taxis have always been a staple in American history since probably cars. It's the concept of getting a ride in a car that's not yours existed. Uber just facilitated it way easier way cheaper, cheaper. And so I feel like that's the hold up. There's no reason why Spotify can't go live. There's absolutely no reason if you don't.
- [08:03]
Tyler
Yeah, yeah, go ahead. It's a problem. No, it's a problem. I think until though FM radio is never going to die until XM radio or satellite radio is free. Free, free. You still have to have subscription. There's still enough boomers and older people and, and then even younger kids, they get in their car and it's like streaming off their phone. They just put On a playlist. They put on Taylor Swift. Whatever these kids listen to. I don't think FM will ever die and I don't think XM will ever be able to overtake FM due to the ability to just stream your own music. And I'll tell you, like xm, you think off satellite radio, no commercials. They talk so much on there now between songs and this and you're like, why the. Am I paying for this? Like, I want to listen to music. It's funny in the BMW, like driving home last night, my wife's got the.it's very convenient. The Toyota is terrible. Like to navigate the XM radio, the BMW is easier and I like reach for it. She's like, no, dog, I'm the dj. And she like spins the wheel and gets like station to station. But if you're not going to listen to your own music, I think people are just put on FM radio, man, and just hit the scan button. I don't think it'll ever change. I don't think XM is ever going to get past it. And that's why I think these roadblocks like this will stay forever because XM or FM is always going to be there.
- [09:15]
Mike
Yeah. Do you, do you, do you at least concur with the possibility of my, of my. What do you call that hypothesis? Yeah. Like, do you believe that could be true? That FM radio is not going to allow. Yeah.
- [09:34]
Tyler
I would invite you to. I would invite you to look at who owns FM radio, the mass of it. And then they're never going to give up control of that.
- [09:46]
Mike
So. Yeah, it's never gonna change. I just was thinking about that today or this morning and like, you know, we're so, like I said, we're so limited. Not that we really. It's not that we don't want to. It's not that we can't. Growing. Ca. Growing is just. We have. We are, I'm telling you right now, me and Mike are so happy that we have you guys, the. The 99 and you guys know who you are. But like growing the business, you know, when we want to do like, we always talk about doing these, like going on a 99 cruise and doing all the stuff and like going and doing major events or like doing that race car thing. Like, it just takes a lot of money and the only way you can get money is through mainly sponsors. And sponsors come with more streams and more downloads. That's just. It is what it is. If we want to be able to grow the community, the 99. We always have to think how can we get more streams and downloads, therefore get more sponsors, therefore get more money, therefore really, really build this community. And, you know, paying, paying employees to make it better and make it easier. Me and Mike can sit here and promise y' all free shirts all day, but me and Mike got to sit behind a computer or a desk and actually mail it out. And it's just actually not, you know,
- [11:13]
Tyler
pay for it too. Like, yeah, I'm not trying to be a dick at all. I will always support. I said, I'll do the. I'll do the shooting jersey. I'll do the. I'll get the aerosol shirts. Those don't cost anything. But I will absolutely make, you know, gaming shirt. But that, you know, that. That's basically me paying for it. Like, even, like when you're wearing the new shirts from yesterday. We bought our own shirt. We paid for it. It's not free. Like, that comes from somewhere. Yeah. So it's, It's. That is the, the difference, I think because we had a crash out last night. The difference between that type of atmosphere and this type of atmosphere is our time and energy goes into how do we redistribute everything back to the supporters. Like, that's why we answer our own dms. That's why we don't have somebody filtering our dms. That's why we're in our own Patreon and we're trying to get to these live events where we actually meet people. I. I saw a. A guy put a reel out yesterday. It was sent to me this morning. And the irony of the reel is that there's no real people in the video. Like, they're sitting on benches and walking down the street, but they're. It's always by themselves. They're never interacting with. Your wife sent it this morning in our group chat. On to me and you and Jojo. You know exactly I'm talking about.
- [12:26]
Mike
Oh, yeah.
- [12:27]
Tyler
So there's like a. There's like. Yeah, there's a hype. There's a hype video that these, this company put out and it's. We'll talk about in Patreon. But the video speaks for itself. It's two guys completely isolated from anybody. There's no interaction with any fans. There's no. Everything is about their face, their. Their isolation, where everything we're trying to do is community. Like, I took a call. You were. You're there. Yesterday I took a call from one of our Patreon guys asking advice about websites and all that that's what we're here for. Like that. That you guys are paying money to be part of a network, part of a family. And a family would take your call personally, not deflect it to some chick or answer you with answer. Does it take more time? Yes. Is it a little more work? Absolutely. But that's the foundation of what we're doing, is being a community. Not just look at me, I'm cool. I did all this. You should love me.
- [13:19]
Mike
There was everybody, you know, I. Everybody knows I'm not the biggest obviously sports fan ever, but I can tell a good business model when I see one. And Barstool Sports has the most authentic one that I've seen from ground up from the start to now. And one of the oldest tales, but it's true, is that Dave Portnoy would give his email out and answer emails like up until three years ago. And it was a crap shoot then everybody was like, man, he might answer it and he would just get on his emails and like, answer as Dave Portnoy at Barstool Sports and oh, el presidente. And you know, it's because he, when he started Barstool, he, he considered himself a stoolie just like everybody else. He would say, like, we're all sports fans. We are all fans of this. We're all, I just made a community that we can all get together. Obviously now he's a millionaire and he's. He's not going to be able to answer.
- [14:16]
Tyler
But what he still does is, and I will always, you know, people can hate him, love him, hate him, love him. But what those pizza reviews he does still as a millionaire, obviously now it's more of a. You don't see him go dump on anybody unless they treat him like when he gets there. But imagine the effect that we know it that he has on those small businesses. I know during COVID he was donating thousands tens and twenties and thirties of thousand dollars to those small businesses that were like, hey, we're gonna have to close next month because of COVID kept him afloat.
- [14:45]
Mike
You remember that video where he said, how much do you need? And he was like, I don't know. And he's like, you got a ballpark for me right now, dude? And. And he saved a pizza shop from going under.
- [14:55]
Tyler
Yeah. Then there was more than just one. But when he goes to your business and eats a pizza, give score, obviously it's not dominoes or whatever, it gives you a score that immediately puts your business on the map. And his influence and his name Attached to that because he has his own app. You can see where he's been. I've probably gone to 30 pizza shops based on his face on the app, in New York, Miami. Wherever I go in the town, I'm like, hey, I want pizza. I'm gonna look at. So what he does based on that, the community he built, he might be able to answer 40 emails a week or get on the phone with you, but he's still traveling, doing small businesses, helping them out. So it continues to be a positive. A net positive. Continues to be a net positive. Yeah.
- [15:38]
Mike
And I don't know, it's growing. The company is. Will never be. You know, we're always going to be Tyler and Mike and, you know, but there's. It's weird. Our. Our business setup is. Is. Chads are insane. The business concept is. Our business is really weird because, you know, first off, we have a. We like to hire friends. But, you know, we also, when we hire people, we run the. The risk of this happening and that happening and not doing them. And, you know, me and Mike have only been small business owners for, what, like, three years?
- [16:17]
Tyler
You longer than me? I. Well, yeah, I guess if you consider Copville. I started selling merchandise in May of 20 or I think I sold my first, and I was taking the orders by Venmo. So the guy Venmoed me and the sticker he wanted, and I had to go keep up with all the Venmo orders and like, dude, you sent me the wrong one. Then I was sending them with stamps, so they're like, bro, it's been three weeks. I haven't got my stickers. Like, I send it with a 55 cent stamp. So, yeah, it's. It's a learning curve. But yeah, I'd say, like, total three years between the two of us.
- [16:47]
Mike
So when you ask someone to. When you ask two dudes to. To run a business and dream of building in a community, and, you know, like, we're. We're learning too. And. Yeah, I mean, but like, how. You know, let's say, like, for instance, like, we just got a Facebook message from another. Like, we. We put out feelers, but that's what me and Mike do. We're like, hey, if you're. You know, we want to know more about firefighters, we want to know more about blue collar guys, and we just get like, flooded with information from everybody, and then there's nobody putting that into a funnel and delivering it to me and Mike while we drink our coffee and look through it. It's me And Mike, hey, man, has this guy messaged you on any platform? No, that's a new one. All right, cool. And then I reply, and it's just. There's. It's constant, constant, constant, constant.
- [17:40]
Cole
And.
- [17:41]
Mike
And I love it. That's my job. That's my dream job. I remember sitting in a patrol car going, I would love to do that. And it's my. But then you start seeing the realities of, you know, the.
- [17:51]
Tyler
The.
- [17:52]
Mike
The need to grow, to do what you want to do. So, you know, we. Like I said, it's Dan Punchy.
- [18:05]
Tyler
It is. And here's. I laugh, but, like. And it sounds so stupid, but I haven't made a meme in, like, four days. And I. I like it. You think, oh, it's just a meme. But I. It's dumb as it sounds.
- [18:16]
Mike
I'm telling you right now, I get it. If I don't. If I go two days without putting out a reel, it's crazy. In all reality, it all goes like this.
- [18:25]
Tyler
Yep.
- [18:25]
Mike
So I'm like, the memes, as silly as that sounds, that's the start of your business.
- [18:30]
Tyler
That was what I did and all. I did that. So it's like I. I sit there and I'm like, driving home last night, I looked at Joanne. I'm like, I'm putting meme out, like, three days. She's like, yeah. And I'm like, it sounds so stupid, but it's. Mentally, I'm just. It's hard to keep it. And then it's like, I just don't want to stick some stupid meme that's gonna, you know, not that I care about likes, but the point of the page is to be very unique, very consistent. So it's like, then I sit here and I go, but you know how I used to make my memes when I had no other business to deal with was just death scrolling Instagram and then going, oh, look at that video. I can turn that into this. This will be funny. Honestly, my brain doesn't have the capacity anymore. I don't have the capacity, man. Like, I got home last night and we stayed up another hour, just. She was strong. I put my phone down, dude. After a couple chats with the. The OGs, she's like, you good? I'm like, yeah, I can't pick that thing up anymore.
- [19:17]
Mike
I'm done.
- [19:17]
Tyler
Like, I can't mentally look at that phone anymore. I usually listen to music when I go to sleep, and I didn't even turn the music on. I was like, I can't I can't touch the phone.
- [19:25]
Mike
Yeah. And the meme things, again, like, we're. We're joking because. But he. At the end of the day, if it's all founded on something, right, like, like this podcast broadcast, I guarantee you, everybody, at some point, I shouldn't say everybody, a lot of people found us through a reel on Instagram or something along that nature, right? It's the founding thing for Copville. The memes are what started it all. So it's almost like not taking care of the foundation of your house and just keep on building it. And you're like, it'll be fine. And then it's like, well, it was built on that. But here's the thing. No one else can make those memes but you because of the vision. I'm telling you. Like, if we, me and Mike have contemplated, like, hey, man, maybe we should offload the reels and contract them out. And we're like, no, because nobody gets our show. Like, we understand our show. We understand, like, the pushing and pulling back. The pushing, the pulling back.
- [20:21]
Tyler
Like, the other thing I had to realize was that page was followed for memes. So when I started to, early on try to, like, push the. My own podcast and talk, people are like, who's. Get off the screen, dude, this is Copville. This is memes. Like, they didn't want to see me talk, and I don't get a lot of real crazy responses when I post any video on there. That's why I kind of backed out of. I. I posted on my personal page on my Facebook. That page was built on memes. That's all those guys they follow. They want to see them wild memes and the. That they can send in the group chat. They don't want to see some talking. So I have to, like, I had to learn that, like, all right, Copville is just going to be memes. That's what we're going to do. And obviously, we collab on these reels and I. They go up. But the core of that page is not bitching about my administration, not any of that. It's just memes and. And funny. And I had to, you know, you had to learn that, like, nobody cares. This is a page. Everybody wants to send the group chat. They don't want to sit here and debate politics on Copville. They want memes. So that's what got to me. That's what got me there. And I gotta stay true to it.
- [21:21]
Mike
Dude. Duder, man, I. I see you a lot. I know you're always in the chats. I, I remember you in the chats on the squad cast joked about how Drew used to go, dude, duder. I would. We both looked at each other when we saw your name. I have never, we've never really publicly spoken about this. We've just kind of dropped tidbits here and there and I. But you're not missing anything. In all reality, I don't. Mike, have we ever said anything? I'm not even saying, like, things that aren't true. Even the true. We have.
- [21:56]
Tyler
Well, it depends what he's talking about. If you're talking about Jimmy, if he's talking about the other guy.
- [21:59]
Mike
He asked, what's your issue with the Brent earlier, he asked, what's your biggest issue, Brent? Just curious. And I mean, I'm not saying anything
- [22:13]
Tyler
until I get a permission slip. That's all I'm gonna say.
- [22:16]
Mike
And I'm not saying anything until I get a permission slip. And.
- [22:19]
Tyler
Oh, yeah, I mean, in any, in any split, just like any other split, partners get an argument at work, two guys at the job go the different ways, spouses split, whatever it be, there's always going to be two sides to a story and there's going to be egos involved. And that's the best way I can explain it. Oh, it's Good Friday. But I will say my, my basic was that you were not. I know for a fact that you were not treated fairly and that there was things that could have been done better if the split was actually going to be amicable. And we were very stressed about how it was going to go down. So we played super, super nice. Almost like when you're. Your crazy ex is like gonna, you're scared she's gonna shoot you, but she says she's leaving. You're like, okay, if that's what you want is best, like, let's do it. I think we're very hesitant to, like, we don't want the drama. We really don't. We want to just go on with our thing. But, you know, ever there's egos involved. And I think if anybody measures egos, they can tell which you go is bigger and it is what it is. One day, maybe I'm just gonna let it, leave it at that.
- [23:29]
Mike
It will in time. Patreon, if I'm not, I'm not really, I promise you I'm not trying to plug Patreon. That's the only time I talk about it. And you know, I, I, I can justify a lot by saying I'm not talking. I'm telling the truth. And me and Mike are on that path of telling the truth. But it can be in lawsuits and in potential suits. It can be construed as if I just go tell the truth. You're. You're negatively speaking about business owners.
- [24:00]
Tyler
Yes. Yeah. It's like when you say you're not going to argue with your ex in public once you divorce and then you got to start taking pop shots on social media at each other. It's like.
- [24:07]
Mike
Yeah, exactly. You both agree to it. And then at the end of the day someone was dung wrong and that person that was done wrong. It's just really hard to. It's especially if you're not with that other app. Like if you're not. Some people think we were business partners.
- [24:22]
Tyler
Huh. Some people think they were done wrong too. And that's part of the problem.
- [24:27]
Mike
Yeah, but I mean if you're two business owners and, and one did you wrong but they, you stayed business owners and you're like, well we're just going to make the business work because it makes money. That's different. But when you're two business owners and you were done wrong and you're not business owners anymore together in one business because I'm telling you guys right now, I, I, I'm not, I'm not you. There's things right now that used to be visible yesterday that you were able to see that you can't see now. Oh. And I'll leave it at that for now. But that I don't know how ugly that's gonna get. But again, people do what they want, they justify what they want. You know, they'll hurt people.
- [25:08]
Tyler
And you want. And you watch what you want. I don't care if anybody watches his stuff. I don't. It doesn't bother me. People. It's not. And you, you choose what you want to see and how you want to see it. I just know what we bring to the table. We bring news, entertainment. We bring the ability to talk to us at any given moment through, through so for. Through Patreon, through dms. I will answer Ty. That's the community. I pray. Honestly, I don't want to. And this sounds stupid from business owner but I do. I hope that we get just comfortable enough that we can maintain that and never get too big where we lose that. Like I don't want to ever lose the connect. Let me just, you know how it goes, man. Like you said port nice to had to stop doing something. I don't. My goal is never to get so crazy that it's like, I want to continue to build the community for the community. That's the goal is to grow the audience that each, everybody else can interact with each other and we're just part of the crew, like jumping in Patreon, having an hour conversation and all that stuff.
- [26:08]
Mike
What happens is people like, let's say we've got 50, 60 loyal. Like when I don't, I don't mean loyal to us, but like, like 99ers, like loyal to the cause. There's nothing saying that a lot of those people won't be recruited, employed, doing their thing with counterculture. Like our ability to be able to, to let the, not the counterculture gaming guys take off and do whatever they want. You know, that that is cool to me because we, me and Mike, we don't really have anything to give you guys other than content. And if people want to go above and beyond and do something for us and, and to build the community in their own way. Me and Mike would never be able to build a gaming branch off of, you know, but they could and they offered and they're great dudes. And you know, we, we really want to, you know, when we're making money, you know, obviously we created the OG Council on Patreon because I said it. If we employ people that doesn't have to be physically here where we are, we're going to recruit from that, that pool first, who's interested, who's qualified. You know, that way we're making sure we get. It's got like in house hiring. Like before you put a job opening out, you, you ask within house, who wants to trans, who wants to promote
- [27:31]
Tyler
type thing and who, you know, that's what I'm saying. Like, we obviously, the whole Timmy thing, everything, we went through other things, other people. But I, it's always like trying to give people the, the, the route to success. Like the route to say, here you are, essentially, no, you know, nobody knew who Jimmy was. He comes in. It was a path to success. Like here it just didn't work out. Like, I'm not being a dead horse, not going crazy, not, it's funny a lot of it. I, I, you know, we all have a part in how it all went down. I'm not saying I'm perfect, but that is an example of. And then the gaming, like, hey, here's some dudes that follow us. They're loyal. Like, let's let them run with it. Like, hey, most guys would be going, all right, we'll let you run with it. But you're using the counterculture name. You're gonna have to pay us some dues, man. You're gonna have to give us off, you know, money and. No, like, let's watch you succeed. Because part of our success is building other branches of this company that succeed. So when money. And that's why I hate when you're accused of anything to do with money. Like, that is the dumbest thing I've ever heard in my life. Like you said about me in the loyalty reel. Like, I look at you, like, I don't look at the books. I don't care about it. There is a 0.0% chance I know you're ever going to do anything negative to me when it comes to money or anything else, honestly. So to say that that's the one that pisses me off the most. Is that any insinuation that you did anything negative with. You tell me when I'm like, yeah, whatever. Hey, man, we're gonna do that. Okay, whatever. Like, that is the one that drives me the most crazy, because that is. There's not a bone in your body that has anything to do with scamming anybody or trying to get one up on anybody.
- [29:05]
Mike
And that.
- [29:06]
Tyler
That one makes me mad, so.
- [29:09]
Mike
Well, it's just the one dude acclaiming.
- [29:11]
Tyler
Yeah, but that's. That's one dude. That's the biggest dude, man. I mean, that's the guy who says it, and when he says it, people take it for value. And I can tell you in the six months or whatever it's been, I never once, ever, ever, and will never worry about money or you doing anything with money that's detrimental to this or. Or personal in nature or anything. So that one pisses me off.
- [29:35]
Mike
Yeah. Trust me. And I got, like, business partner PTSD from it because Brent used to do the same thing. I don't want to be involved. I want to be Brent Tucker. I want to come in and be the talent, the star, the show. And then when he was upset that, like, he was never upset about money because we made a lot of money, but he would be like, where did this money go to? Well, it went to this. Well, why'd we do that? That's not. You know, that's not. Well, Brent, you haven't been around for, like, three months and that, like, in any business portion of this. So, like, you. Brent also wouldn't answer the phone. Like, that's. That's just. Everybody knows that even as a business partner, there'd be days where he wouldn't. I'd be needing, though. I. It's either business tanks or I make decisions as 50 owner. And none of that. Everything I did and had and. And went into the business. And to be accused of theft when I was doing all the work and making the same amount of money of the guy that wasn't doing any work is preposterous. And people will also see that, too. There's. There's another. There's something else going on that, like I said, I'll inform you guys.
- [30:52]
Tyler
I know, like I said, we talk more than anybody on earth. Like I talk to you more than I talk to my wife when she's not here. But you have never made a decision since the day we've taken over where you haven't sent me a message or called me and said, hey, I'm gonna run this by you. Not one, not one, not one penny have you ever spent since we've been partners where you haven't called me and run it by me and asked me. So I just don't. That one hurts, man. That's like, you know, when somebody calls you, everybody's got a pet peeve or a certain, you know, the mama. You talk about my mom. You call me a liar. There's always something that drives everybody crazy. And for that to happen to you or somebody to make, even try to make that claim is I. Makes me irate. Irate.
- [31:35]
Mike
So, yeah, I want to know. Nick said they wouldn't read the super chat about me. I, I. This is Casual Friday. That a lot of people think this is silly. And it is. We have no forums. I mean, they, you know, to talk with you guys to Casual Friday is supposed to be about listener engagement. Clint, what did you say? Type it in this chat, what you said in that chat.
- [32:01]
Tyler
What's funny? That they wouldn't read. I mean, that makes me lose even more respect if you're not. You're gonna insinuate and beat around the bush and talk coded. But then somebody says it. Just read it, dude. I'll read it. Somebody said something about him. I'll read it. I'm not scared. It's the Internet. Tyler is bi.
- [32:21]
Mike
Clint said it.
- [32:22]
Tyler
Yeah, Yeah. Gator. Josh said that. Gator is the man. He seems chilled. Gator's great, dude. He is, like, a great addition to the family. Shows up, he comes in, he helps set up, helps break it down, contributes with content. Like, awesome, awesome dude to have in the studio.
- [32:45]
Mike
Yeah. I mean, from what I understand, John lives about three hours away, man. Maybe, maybe that when we do this whole you know, the. The night shift once a month idea here in Orlando is because we can be like, yo, in a month, we have this date. This is the date we're doing it. You know, we can actually have like a huge atmosphere or it's like a get together. And like, we can have rotating seats and people can, you know, be up and hanging out talking while other people are podcasting. It's just. And maybe we could go for like three hours, you know, and. Because I have no problem.
- [33:21]
Tyler
You see me give up my seat. I have no problem giving up my seat.
- [33:24]
Mike
We stretch it. And if everybody doesn't it, we stretch it so thin every doing it every week that there's times when it's like me and Mike are like, we're it for night shift. Like, we're it. People just can't make it every week. And it's like until you're big enough to where everybody. And this is. This is the true, true reality. Until you're getting a thousand views alive, nobody is going to really want to come here for their own benefit. They're really coming here to have a good time and to support the show. That's just once you start hitting about a thousand live viewers, that's when people are like, you'll. Dude, you'll have a full house of people here every week. And maybe we could go back to it then, but right now it's like people are, you know, like last night, that was fun as. But I'm telling you right now, the girls are not coming every Thursday night. That was it. As much as we'd like them to, you know, but if we do it once a month, girls could come. Our friends could come. Our friends from across the state could come, you know, down south could come. Like, it could be a good time and we could actually have like a massive night shift show. What I miss?
- [34:40]
Tyler
No, no, nothing. Yeah, I mean,
- [34:48]
Mike
There's a troll in the chat.
- [34:50]
Tyler
It just let him go, dude. Because it'd be just. With just what they're doing.
- [34:54]
Mike
I missed it. Yeah.
- [34:56]
Tyler
What.
- [34:56]
Mike
What one is it? I'm okay with it.
- [34:58]
Tyler
Yeah, right here. Which. It's Matt Cameron Reed. His math is wrong because he said this and we don't have 136k subs. We only have 119, 000. So.
- [35:08]
Mike
Yeah.
- [35:09]
Tyler
Couldn't even get his diss track straight.
- [35:13]
Mike
Sorry, but that's.
- [35:14]
Tyler
You know,
- [35:17]
Mike
I could say this, I'll say this, I'll say this right? You went it. Some channels go from 3, 000 watching and then it starts going to 2, 000 watching and then it starts Going to 1, 000 watching and then it starts Going to 700 watching and then 500 watching and so on and so forth. When your material sucks and you're fake as people start dropping off and I'll leave it at that. I'll leave it at that.
- [35:52]
Tyler
So here, commenting and liking and engaging my product. They're the fools.
- [36:00]
Mike
I'll just leave it at that. That could be anybody. That's just general advice for anybody out there that starts a YouTube channel. Yeah, it's.
- [36:08]
Tyler
And it's just like we were talking weightlifting and Gator was posting some old pictures and I did too. It's no different than like body, this formula. If you get so sucked in and you worry about numbers and watching and this, it's like, you can't, you can't. And same with the Copville thing. The real. Oh, my God, this meme was great. It only got a thousand views. I'm dumb. Like, it a lot to deal with. But when you don't care, when you're not, when you're not. When you're not using your ego, when your ego isn't a driven force behind your product, you don't care. That's the bottom line. Yeah, I don't care. We can do this for the rest of the next. We can do this for the next 10 years, dude.
- [36:46]
Mike
And the beautiful thing about it is it's right now, it's sustainable. All the damage, you know, all the damage that people could do, it's gone.
- [36:55]
Tyler
Well, if you notice, I don't, you know, I know you don't pay attention to some of the things I keep an eye on. Megaphone. So here's interesting. We went from, obviously, when you were in your heyday, crazy. At one point, we were down like 58 streams from where you were at your peak. It bottomed probably December. And as of this month already, we're 33% ahead of last month in streams just on audio. And we bottomed. We went like. And then it sustained like December, January, and then it started and stayed even. Now, just this month already, we're back up 33%. And you know, that's just. That's a number that, I mean, that just shows that, you know, you know, I never had an ego. Like, I don't mind engaging with this.
- [37:48]
Mike
It helps my algorithm.
- [37:50]
Tyler
Yeah, hold on. We put the long thing in my mouth.
- [37:55]
Mike
Yeah. All about the algorithm. And then his dumb ass guess is like, like, oh, I can't say, because Here, I mean, no, we all know. We all know.
- [38:15]
Tyler
I don't want to say they're baiting me. They're baiting me, but I'm willing to do it face to face. That's the other side of it. I'm willing to say
- [38:24]
Mike
my phone all the time, dude.
- [38:27]
Tyler
Well, I can go back. You know, like I said, like I've said before, when. When the coup started on you and they went behind your back and reached out to every single person around you, there was one person they didn't call. That was me. I never got a text, I never got a call. Never got anything. Like everybody else got something.
- [38:47]
Mike
It's funny too. My wife brought this up. She said, remember when Mike said that about you and the business stuff about how no one called him? She was like, when all these accusations were going on about you, right? The domestic violence, all that stuff. No one called her, no one messaged her. No, because they knew. They knew, like, hey, there's only certain amount of people that are gonna buy this. And the ones that would really need to know if that was going on. Theft, you know what? You know, theft of thousands of dollars in business wise. Wouldn't you want to know that, Mike? Well, wouldn't I tell you? Like, hey, man.
- [39:23]
Tyler
Well, here's the thing. If anybody knew the most, it was me. So if he thought there was money being moved around something, he would have, you know, hey, hey, dude, this. I think this. My phone never rang. No, that's all I can say. My phone never rang. Send James a link. Hey, man, you want the link? I will give you the link. You can come on in and talk. That's the ultimate. That's like the ultimate. I would love to get a link to the other show. That's the ultimate. Come on in. Everybody's tough behind a. You know that. But I'm willing to talk to anybody. Actually, I got Albany Police Department. We went back and forth. That was the other thing I was doing. People thought I was mad last night. The one thing I got mad about was I went and looked at something in mother and I saw. I was like, this guy's such a fraud with a bible involved. But anyway, the other thing was Albany Police Department. I on them with sharing one of their reels talking and their social media guy reached back out and started talking to me in the DMs. So I said, hey, bro, let's go live. Let's do a live broadcast. You can explain to me why these tick tock videos are good for law enforcement and talk about it. So we'll see, we'll see, we'll see. And that's what I think. Izzo just reached out to a chief and they kind of quasi accepted to go on with him.
- [40:50]
Mike
So that's a first.
- [40:52]
Tyler
That's really the best way to do it. Like talk to talk to face. Nobody can talk. You're here to.
- [40:59]
Nick the Gun Guy
You're here.
- [41:00]
Tyler
If they're on the other end, you can. You can say, oh, that's not true. And I can say, yeah, it is. I got proof. And we can talk face to face. And I've never had a problem with that. So we will see. We will see. What else?
- [41:15]
Mike
Any of the agencies that you talk about, like Miami, whatever, come on and talk to you.
- [41:21]
Tyler
I don't talk about, like, Miami date. I have a problem with no Miami.
- [41:25]
Mike
The best, the best.
- [41:26]
Tyler
No, no. I. I don't. I guess I don't reach out. I really don't get that involved to reach out. I guess I could like. Mario Lopez is the chief of Doral, which is a great agency. They have a massive physical fitness program. He pts with the whole. And the only thing that drives me crazy, they don't wear their vest in public. Everything else is great. Miami Dade, pretty good. But then their motor units. I was going to the cruise ship on the Uber and here's a motor guy pulling somebody over in Miami with Polo one. I don't think so. Maybe if I announce my candidacy, that might get somebody on with me. Maybe.
- [42:02]
Mike
When are we doing that?
- [42:03]
Tyler
I don't know, dude. I don't know. That's a lot.
- [42:11]
Mike
That is a lot.
- [42:12]
Tyler
It is a lot. Yeah, it's a lot. It's a lot.
- [42:15]
Mike
I really do it from 11 to 1. I'm. I'm going to be busy in my office.
- [42:20]
Tyler
I could do it from the office, man. It is right there. I kind of reminds me of Sanders. Like Sheriff Sanders is jam up, dude. We had on and that law actually passed that screwed them. Where a sheriff can be removed in the state of Washington now without election, like the government to just come in and go, you're out of here. Very dangerous. But yeah, I think that'd be a good time. If we imagine this chat and the many followers we have in. In the comments of a Facebook election. And I'm in. I'm in it.
- [42:51]
Mike
I don't think people would think it's real.
- [42:53]
Tyler
Oh, it'll be.
- [42:53]
Mike
I honestly think people would be like this. It can't be real.
- [42:59]
Tyler
We'll see.
- [43:00]
Mike
Like I said, man, you'd never Have a hiring problem ever?
- [43:03]
Tyler
No, that's. That's my. I guess that would be my cell would be. I. I don't think we would. You know, I look at the few agencies that have squared away places like Sandy Springs, where Jordan Ennis works and his chief, Ken DeSimone. They got a waiting list, dude, massive waiting list. They're like, yeah, line up. We'll pick the best one. And that's how it should be. And I think you get back to that. I think you get back to that.
- [43:25]
Mike
But like, risky though, dude, to. To. To up to up and up, leave and go start a new. At a new agency. Like, just because they're pro.
- [43:35]
Tyler
Proactive policing that old generation of me. These new kids go three agencies in six years, dude. They don't care. They're bouncing around. And eight. Back in my day, when you left one time, I left from the sheriff's. The police department to the Sheriff's office in 04. I started getting pissy around 2012, 13. And I went to another age, like, hey, man, this will be your third agency. Like, and that was in like 12 years. Now it's like you can work six places in five years and nobody cares.
- [44:05]
Mike
Yeah, dude, could you imagine if
- [44:09]
Tyler
all
- [44:10]
Mike
of us started becoming deputies?
- [44:12]
Tyler
Amen. I guarantee you.
- [44:14]
Mike
Hey, I guarantee you dudes that retire out of anywhere in the country, they're looking to come to Florida. Like, hey, man, you know, could I, you know. Oh, yeah, we got a drop for you, dude.
- [44:25]
Tyler
We don't teach the escalation. We teach distractionary blows.
- [44:28]
Mike
Over here.
- [44:30]
Tyler
You can pick cars, crash cars. We got a new member.
- [44:34]
Mike
Oh, new member. Sean Maisie and I want to address this dude, dude, you know, he's a good dude. He'd be honest. Correct me if I'm wrong. The first time I came on Thursday when I. When Brent was here, I think I named the cut couch when uncle's on it. You probably did, and it probably stuck. The issue is, it's a. That's not a cut couch. That's where somebody goes to. Hey, man, you want to be on the show? Right? And then as. Look, I mean, without sounding, but Mike always says it. I. He did his time. Like, he came and sat on the couch, you know, that we. There's. We're never gonna be like, yo, you're always going to be on the. On the couch. Like, that's just not how we operate. No.
- [45:20]
Tyler
And I mean, here I'll be. I'm very. I'm very open. Talk about ego was. I came on the show in December of 13 in this middle seat. And you want to sit in the middle seat, right? You're like that guy. Oh, I'm on the show. And then you sit on the couch and you're like. It's like, you know, kissing your sister. You're like, this sucks. You're on the couch. But then. And I remember one episode, I was like, yeah, come sit on the couch. And then. Or sit in the middle chair. And then some other people showed up, and they were branch people. So I got shuffled back to the couch. And then there were times I remember sitting on the couch where you. You even pointed out. I think Brent was like, is he coming every week? Which his crew came every week.
- [45:53]
Mike
Yeah, Brent. His crew was allowed every week because I had to be friends with his friends. It was mandatory. When Brent first came on, I had issues with one of his guys that worked with me and Magnet, and he was like, if you're not going to be. If you're gonna. If you're not gonna be nice to them, this can't work. And I was like, okay, I'll be nice to them. And so it was. He got off on, like a. On a way where. Like, on a technicality where, like, well, they're our friends because I told you, you had to be nice to me. They weren't my friends. I would never hang out with these guys outside of this. So when I started having people come hang out just for me on my app of the business, it was this guy. Is this guy gonna be here every week?
- [46:39]
Tyler
Yeah. And I got a big league dude. I'm not gonna hold that back. That dude walked by me like I was nobody. After, it was like. And then I. That was after I had co hosted on the. Dan Crenshaw co hosted on multiple episodes when he was gone, and I would show up and it was like, oh, here he is again. And, you know, I sat on the couch several times where I didn't speak. Maybe three times in two and a half, three hours, driving two hours just to be there for support. But that was when I knew, you know, I kind of knew where we were. Things were probably headed.
- [47:08]
Mike
I'm not.
- [47:09]
Tyler
I'm dumb in a lot of areas, but investigations and body language and people are. I'm pretty good at that. So. But, yeah, you put your time in, you come hang out, you come sit on the couch, you come, you know, put your time in, and. Oh, that's kind of like how it works.
- [47:24]
Mike
And any business. Yeah, yeah, yeah, look what happens when we bring people on and put them right. Right dead center where. At the ideal position.
- [47:36]
Tyler
Tell me what happened. Tell me what happened.
- [47:39]
Mike
Yeah, it doesn't work out because.
- [47:40]
Tyler
Not a net positive.
- [47:42]
Mike
You can't. You can't really appreciate something like that. You really can't. And that's why I understand when any type of team environment, whether it be military, police, outlaw motorcycle clubs, there is a. A process to moving up in seniority because you appreciate the big picture, the whole thing, way more when you started at the bottom. Or you could look at, like, any job. I. I may. You know, you're. Let's say, your middle management of a company. Maybe you were brought in, in an entry level job and made shit money. It's just. That's not. You can't. A lot of people like to look at it with a negative connotation, but it's not. It's just basic business.
- [48:25]
Tyler
It's. It's. It is. And that's where. I hate saying my wife did something good for me, but she does. You know, she kept me grounded. She's like, hey, put your time in. You know, even when the Jimmy Watson thing, we're talking about, like, taking over. And I was like. But I was like, okay, that makes the most sense, and we'll do that. And then it flopped, and here we are. So, yeah, it takes it. You have to be mentally tough, and then you have to be. Understand the hustle. And a lot of guys been handed everything their whole lives, or they get into special positions in certain branch of the military or any other job, and they get to places, and you just think, like, I earned it because I walked in the room and it's like, no, that's not how it works.
- [49:14]
Mike
I don't know why he paid for it. So it doesn't really mean anything here.
- [49:21]
Tyler
Where's that one? Right here. Tyler, Mike. Did you guys enjoy Huck? Absolutely, dude.
- [49:26]
Mike
Fun, man.
- [49:27]
Tyler
That was fun. Yeah, I think he's gonna. I think he was. We're kind of talking to have him on more. Like, that can never be a bad thing, because that dude is like an energy drink on crack. Like, the second he. Starts talking, you're like, you want to jump through a wall?
- [49:49]
Mike
So he should have been a wrestler. And then he went on to tell us a story about how he almost was in wwe. I'm laughing.
- [49:55]
Tyler
Yeah. What? But that shows you business, right? Hey, we want you. Hey, we want you. Oh, you got hurt. We don't want you anymore. Okay?
- [50:03]
Mike
You're done.
- [50:05]
Tyler
That's his business.
- [50:13]
Mike
He has definitely has WWE Energy.
- [50:15]
Clint
Yeah.
- [50:15]
Tyler
Oh, yeah, dude, that is. You can't. You can do that. Like, we've all done the Stone Cold Hulk Hogan impersonations as kids, but to Keep that up 24 hours a day and. And then like buy into the character. It takes a special person. He does it well. And I think it's. I think it's great that his agency doesn't give a. That's the thing. Like, he works for a corrections agency and they just let him get away with. I mean, I love it. That's a good agency.
- [50:42]
Mike
Whatever it is. WWE messed up on not having him. Yeah, that is true. They probably. They probably look at him and go, you know what? He's probably too old now, but he would still be such a good personality to have around. Oh, yeah, dude. Duder. With five bucks. Thanks, bro. I'm assuming anything you were gonna type a super chat and accidentally hit just send. So I'll read whatever you put out after this as your super chat. Heather said Mike is a real one. 100.
- [51:18]
Tyler
You know who else is ruined? His wife for letting him play the character because he says some wild. Yeah, he's like, there's a lot of
- [51:26]
Mike
dudes that have obviously, like, their wives are okay with the character. I don't think I would be comfortable with that, you know, as a marriage. But he's clearly a character. Like, he came on with pit vipers and yes, it would be cool to get to know like the real.
- [51:44]
Nick the Gun Guy
But also.
- [51:45]
Mike
Would it. It might not.
- [51:46]
Tyler
Nick says he's like that. 24.
- [51:48]
Mike
Nick.
- [51:48]
Tyler
Nick the gun guy says he's like that. 27. Yeah, Izzo. Somebody asked about Izzo. Does Izzo ever turn up? Izzo is very soft spoken and very, very normal on the phone. He's very helpful. Like, Izzo's always like, hey, man, I think you got. We can help you with this. We can help you with that. Like, he's not that all the time. He loves being the bad guy. He would be the villain in every single story. He feel. It makes him feel lucky to be liked. Whenever somebody supports him, he's like, oh, God. They like, they said something nice about me. He embraces that. There we go. Fox News update. Trump being briefed on shutdown of 15. That's right. We got there together.
- [52:43]
Mike
Somebody's. I'm checking on what Fumasa said. Or not Fumasa. I could. Dude, I cannot keep the. Yeah, Fumasa. Yeah,
- [52:59]
Tyler
Man, that would suck. If we get POWs and Trump's gonna lose his mind, dude.
- [53:05]
Mike
You think so? Yeah.
- [53:06]
Tyler
He's gonna go, they don't. They capture our pilots, dude. That's gonna be mucho problem.
- [53:13]
Mike
Nobody know. What I hate and we'll get back to the pow. Is the. The when you're doing something on Instagram and your Instagram's blowing up on another thing and then you go to click something and then it brings you to another page and you like you were in the middle of doing something on one page.
- [53:32]
Tyler
Oh, that dude. The only times I clicked because our message settings are different and I open it and it takes me to anti here. I'm like, dude. And then I read it because I'm actually, I open it and I'm like, well, I hope Tyler sees it. I opened it. Usually, if it's anything important, I let you know. But yeah, it happens to me all the time. But yeah, I promise the aerosol shirt will be up. I promise. I promise.
- [53:58]
Mike
Izzo is ISO 24 7. That's not really a character at all. I don't know if that lets people down or what. But he's definitely.
- [54:10]
Tyler
He's a very nice guy though. Like off the camera. He's a very nice guy.
- [54:15]
Mike
Like, he's a nice guy on the camera. He just says things. P just says things people don't like.
- [54:21]
Tyler
Yeah, he does very religious. If you watched our last Hot Topic, he does a 10 donation of any money he makes to the church. Any money, any profit, anything. If he buys something and it's worth X amount of dollars, he donates 10 of that money to the church.
- [54:43]
Mike
We tithe. I don't think we don't. I'm. I'm pretty sure me and Heather don't give 10 of our income. But we give 10 or we give something.
- [54:51]
Tyler
Yeah, he does 10 of any purchase or income.
- [55:00]
Mike
Let's take a commercial break. We'll get back and we'll. We'll talk about the POWs a little bit more. And then I got some other things. Be right back. Casual Friday, dude.

Sponsor Voice
Over a century ago, in 1910, the Flexner Report, funded by John D. Rockefeller and the current Carnegie foundation, re engineered medical education from a holistic whole body approach, which appropriately treated the body as an interconnected system, to a compartmentalized approach. Under the guise of specialized medicine, they shut down or consolidated medical schools, marginalized naturopathic, homeopathic and chiropractic medicine, replacing them with symptom management and synthetic drugs. Allopathy is a marketing strategy rooted in fear and manipulated science. This philosophy carried into veterinary medicine resulting in over vaccination, unnecessary surgeries, and manufactured food, just like they did for people. They call it care, but it's predatory and based in profitability. The truth, Toxicity, compromised immunity, and chronic inflammation. They're not fate. They're engineered. And so is your power to undo them. We built three targeted formulas to return the body to homeostasis for pets and people to detox, defend, and restore. We are the correction to decades of corruption. We are vengeance.
- [56:45]
Tyler
And we're back.
- [56:46]
Mike
Oh, is it over?
- [56:48]
Tyler
One of us is back. I got a pretzel.
- [56:50]
Mike
I'm gonna eat like Jimmy coffee. I guarantee you. I spill my coffee all over my laptop. It's been one of those mornings. Yeah, I'm close to doing it, dude. I'm close to doing it. Show, of course, is also brought to you by Crave creatine. Go to tricrave.com and use promo code anti or 15 save 15% on your creatine gummies. 30% increase in size up to 30% increase in strength. It pulls water into the muscles for size and definition. When you take creatine, you give your body more power. Power. That means you can lift more, recover faster, stay sharp mentally all day long. All you need to do is take three gummies a day. Me and Mike take them every day. I, you know, like, like I said, once you go creatine, you know, or once you go gummies, you never go back. They're just so. I took them with me to California. I had a giant bag. This packs into a bag way easier than a shaker and a tub of creatine. And then, you know, you're, you're on a plane, you want to train for five days. You don't have to worry about getting a water bottle and mix it up. You just eat three gummies for the day. You're dead. So if you go to try crave.com and use promo code ANTIRE15, it'll save you 15. And it'll also tell Crave that we sent you good dudes over there. Florida guys. Let's see one of our OG sponsors. Oh, Flatline Chad over at Flatline Fiber code. Go to flatlinefiber co.com and use promo code Anti Herb 15 Save 15. This company is for all you shoot out there. They have rifle slings, ifaks, dump pouches, and baseline bags to name a few. Since their founding in 2019, Flatline Fiber coast strive to create the highest quality gear with real world functionality. Trusted by SWAT teams, high level military units, police agencies and civilian shooters across the globe. They make gear you can trust. So all of our two a gun guys out there like going to the range. It's made in America with a lifetime warranty. So if you get a flatline fiber company or flatlinefiberco.com and use promo code antihero15, it'll save you 15. We're gonna read. We are going to read goon tape. But I need to get with goo tape. You guys are learning this in real time. A lot of people are having trouble with their checkout. I'm probably going to get with them on the phone today and figure that out. I don't care if I need to to walk them through it or what, but we're still going to read their ad. Green tape. If you're a tactical athlete looking for an edge, try some moisture activated goon tape. It's made from ultra strong blend of natural and synthetic fibers to help keep you on target and in the fight. Even when the work gets wet. It works better when it's wetter, baby. You can use goon tape for obviously it's meant for firearms, but we use it for workout equipment. Put it on my son's lacrosse stick. We use it for just about anything. So goontape.com use promo code ANTIHERO15 and in theory save 15. But please do not purchase it without using that promo code. It doesn't help you and it doesn't help us. So just again, like you did last night, Somebody said it I think in Patreon. They went to order some food tape.
- [60:12]
Tyler
I think I was in the regular too. I think it was in the night shift.
- [60:15]
Mike
Yeah. So we'll, we'll get it squared away. I'll get with them today. In fact, I'm gonna text.
- [60:20]
Tyler
And don't forget our. The antiher broadcast store. We were talking earlier. Here is the net not a net positive shirt along with that, is it? There's the shirt.
- [60:30]
Mike
Simple.
- [60:31]
Tyler
We got hoodies. Maybe it loads.
- [60:38]
Mike
There we go.
- [60:39]
Tyler
Hoodies. Distractionary blows. Anti hero forever. Allegedly. We've got stickers flags. We got the anti hero skull flag. We've got stickers for all you guys to put on all your tumblers, laptops. There's your not a net positive sticker. So go to the antiherobroadcast.com store and get your swag.
- [61:10]
Mike
To jump on and call later. All right? Trying to get, you know, we can't, we can't have promo codes. Not working. I've never had this before the sponsor. But it essentially, even though it's not our fault, we're the ones that suffer from it because they're not getting their sales, our listeners aren't getting, they're not able to support. And so I, I want to get this figured out quick. So we actually have a, someone calling in in a couple minutes.
- [61:43]
Tyler
Beautiful.
- [61:44]
James Dela Cruz
Beautiful.
- [61:44]
Mike
He's a, Let me, let me, let me read this. I don't know if he wants his whole name out there. His name's Cole. He is a blue collar worker out in Kansas. He's a huge fan of the show. He's listening live right now and that's what we're all about.
- [62:05]
Tyler
Yeah, our goal is we've been approached by several blue collar guys and I think we talked about this yesterday. I'll talk about it again. We definitely want to get a good contributor. When I say that we love everybody, but part of being a contributor, you have to be comfortable on camera and bring, bring a little room, the availability and bring a little charge in room when you come in. But our goal is to get regular guys, non military, non first responder, just regular dudes as a contributor to kind of understand what the hard working everyday American is going through and what they're looking for. And we've been approached by probably 10 or 12 people now that are in that fit that category. So we're definitely working on that. And they're, they're important as anybody. All those dudes working oil fields and truck driving and all those jobs that make the world go around are as important as anybody else. Without them, we wouldn't be here. So we're working on that.
- [62:58]
Mike
Yeah. So there's a show for the boys, by the boys, the 99. So he's gonna call in a minute. I don't want to get too enveloped into anything before he calls. The, the down pilot thing. You said Trump's gonna lose his mind. First off, we have, we haven't, we have no official confirmation that the jets were shot down. I would think by the time it's entered now, I'd say it's a, probably a fair assessment that American aircraft were shot down.
- [63:33]
Tyler
Yeah. It says President Trump has been briefed on an F15 fighter jet that went down over Iran. That's all we got.
- [63:41]
Mike
And then you know, the, as far as the status of the pilots, we have no idea. There's nothing out there.
- [63:48]
Tyler
No, it says that, damn it. It says the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and state media have claimed to shut down a US Fighter jet over central Iran. President Trump has been briefed. They shot down the jets specifically in the mountainous. I can't say those words. Initial arena reports claim the Aircraft was an F35 Lightning 2 stealth fighter. However, subsequent photos of the wreckage released by Iran Media. See if there's any photos in here. Now they don't have them. Says it's an F30, F15, likely from the 494th Fighter Squadron, but we'll see. That's gonna get things going over there. I promise you.
- [64:33]
Mike
Americans, I mean, if you don't have to go to war, but then when somebody retaliates to what you're doing now, it's an act of war. Now you're going to war. So I'm not trying to sit here and say, like, oh, we manipulated it to go to war by any means, but even if we weren't calling it war, you know, we were doing whatever America wants to do on your soil, and you do something, now it's an act of war. Now that, I guess the thing, I think, I guess the game changes.
- [65:01]
Tyler
Yes. We'll see. These guys are great. These guys are watching. These guys are in Patreon at the same time. Pretty good.
- [65:12]
Mike
They're in Patreon now, too.
- [65:13]
Tyler
People chatting everywhere. Dude. Yeah, it's great.
- [65:17]
Mike
Hey, man, the 99 shirt's pretty cool. I ordered that one from the store.
- [65:24]
Tyler
Yeah, it's a good one. I wore on. I got it on the boat.
- [65:29]
Mike
James de La Cruz for a living. Do I qualify? Absolutely, you qualify. Anybody ever wants to call in, tell us about it themselves. Oh, you got one, too?
- [65:44]
Tyler
99 cent for the boys, and I got.
- [65:47]
Mike
For the boys one. The other one last night.
- [65:50]
Tyler
Oh, here's. Here's the real one.
- [65:53]
Mike
I haven't gotten that one yet. I need to get that one Not.
- [66:00]
Tyler
That'll be the. That's the phrase of the century.
- [66:05]
Mike
Well, James, you don't have to call bro at all, by any means. You know, we're just letting you know, like, you know, you.
- [66:13]
James Dela Cruz
You.
- [66:14]
Mike
You.
- [66:14]
Tyler
Did I say 99 cent? I said 99 cent, too.
- [66:17]
Mike
Did you really?
- [66:18]
Tyler
I guess so. Oh, man. All right. My buddy's got a funny story. He bought something from overseas, and it was motorcycle parts. And the company tried to beat the tariffs, and the package got detained by the feds, and they did a search warrant on it. And my buddy's like, bro, I think somebody's trying to get me. They're doing a search warrant on my package. It's motorcycle fenders. And he found out the company tried to beat the tariffs by sending it a real suspicious way, and that they. They found out.
- [66:58]
Mike
Cole. What's up, buddy? You're Live.
- [67:01]
Cole
What's going on?
- [67:03]
Mike
It's doing our casual Friday thing, bro. So you're on the job site?
- [67:08]
Cole
Yep, I'm in the shop here. Oh. Working on a pickup right now.
- [67:12]
Mike
Damn.
- [67:13]
Cole
Listening to the line. So do you.
- [67:15]
Mike
Do you engage in the chats a lot with everybody or do you just more of a listener?
- [67:20]
Cole
I'm just more of a listener. I don't. I don't like YouTube, so I can't lock my phone and listen to you guys. So I don't really listen to lives until about, I don't know, a week ago. Normally I listen on Spotify, so. Oh, yeah, in the morning, normally that evening or for sure, the next day it's up and I listen to it. So I'm normally about a day behind on whatever you guys are putting out, but that's. That's how I listen.
- [67:46]
Mike
Yeah. It would be super beneficial to be able to stream live on Spotify. We're just talking about that today.
- [67:52]
James Dela Cruz
Yeah.
- [67:53]
Cole
Yeah. And I don't know if YouTube's got it and I'm just too dumb to figure it out, but it sucks. I can't lock my phone because one second I'm in the shop, the next second I might be out in the yard working on a truck or going somewhere else. And I hate having my phone unlocked or my screen on the whole entire time. I like to stick my phone in my pocket. YouTube's not too friendly with that.
- [68:13]
James Dela Cruz
No.
- [68:14]
Mike
So is there a way to do it, though? Yeah, Gator knows how. One of our supporters actually showed me a way. It's a really quick, easy way that you'd be like, huh? And that works. And it's like, kind of like tricking your iPhone. So what I'll do is I'll get Gator to do a screen recording or instructional video for everybody on how you can actually lock your phone but keep our broadcast playing in the background, because I know that's key. I hate having my. You can't do anything on your phone. Like, you can't do anything on your phone.
- [68:44]
Tyler
The chats are saying if you. If you pay the money for Premium. Capitalism.
- [68:48]
Mike
Yeah, you gotta buy. If you pay for YouTube Premium, which I don't, by the way. Cole, so don't feel bad. But if you pay for YouTube Premium, apparently you can do that.
- [69:01]
Cole
Gotcha. No big deal. Listen to lies. I'll do it.
- [69:08]
Mike
So what do you. What do you do? What do you do for work?
- [69:12]
Cole
So I'm a mechanic. Pretty much anything AG related, tractors, combines, that kind of stuff. Mainly John Deere. And then also I do a lot of big truck stuff. Semis, diesel, pickups, you name it. Mace. Mainly AG and diesel stuff. So anywhere from fixing a tire to rebuild an engine or transmission, you name it, I could probably do it.
- [69:38]
Mike
Really?
- [69:39]
Cole
Yes, sir.
- [69:40]
Mike
I love that dude. Too bad you're in Kansas. I'm about to go pick up my truck. I just got it back from the shop through $3,000 in the hole.
- [69:48]
Cole
See, and that's what's nuts is like I've got guys that come to me over dealerships and it's outrageous what dealerships charge people. And even on the smallest things, like I. I know the, the Peterbilt and the big truck dealerships down the road. They're at 200 an hour. And you know, I'm charging guys 100 an hour.
- [70:11]
Mike
Yeah.
- [70:11]
Cole
And I'm still making plenty of money. Like, I just don't understand. But some guys, they want to go to a dealership and have that dealership name behind their stuff and. Great, good forum. But I couldn't imagine having to spend that kind of money. Just get your stuff fixed.
- [70:28]
Tyler
Cole, what's your thought? That's what the thought on the 67 power stroke is.
- [70:33]
Mike
What's your thought on the 67 power stroke? That's what Mike's asking.
- [70:37]
Tyler
Well, somebody in the chat is.
- [70:39]
Cole
I mean, the 67 is probably the only decent Ford diesel out there. I'm gonna get a lot of hate for that because guys are going to say the 73 are good, but they made like 150 course, so they're junk. The 67 is good. There are a few little issues with it, but also I'm not really a Ford guy, but if I were to get a 4 to 67 would be it. I'm more of a Dodge and Chevy guy, but that's teach their own. They're all not bad. They all got their problems.
- [71:12]
Mike
Another person asked. Dude, duder asks Cummins or Power Stroke?
- [71:18]
Cole
Cummins for sure. All right, I gotta. I had a 59 and I got a 6, 7 Cummins. Now that's not really a 6 7, but yeah, Cummins all day long.
- [71:32]
Tyler
All right.
- [71:34]
Mike
Well, bro, I appreciate you calling in. Dude, if you. I ever want to pop in the chats, you know, go. A lot of people do it, man. They go, yo, I'm here guys, but I'm going back to work. So I can't. I won't be on my phone like a lot like the cops and stuff there. They leave it in their cars as they're working and but man. Yeah, just let us know. Type in a message sometime and get to know us and get to know all these weirdos and the 99, because we're all hooligans here.
- [72:02]
Cole
Hell, yeah, we'll do. I do want to say I like listening to your show. I'm not a cop fan. Like, I'm not. I don't. I've never wanted to be a cop. But listening to Mike talked about and all your other guests to talk about the cop work that's done in big cities, it's just mind blowing to me. Like here, if we've got three cops on duty at one time, that's crazy. Like, there's a lot of. There's a lot of cops working.
- [72:26]
Mike
Yeah.
- [72:26]
Cole
Like, I could go all day and never see a single cop.
- [72:29]
Mike
Yeah.
- [72:30]
Cole
And it's. And even like the sheriff's department in our whole county, you know, our county's 30 mile by 30 mile. There may be only one sheriff working for the whole, you know, the whole weekend. They may have two sheriffs on or maybe a third. But it's just. It's mind blowing to hear your guys talking about the cop work and everything that goes on down there and in those big cities. It's just mind blowing to me.
- [72:57]
Mike
But I mean. And one of the. One of the biggest goals that we had for a long time, and we still do, but I think we forget to is. Is bridge the gap between civilians and cops because there's always a story, like, even the most. Like, you know, like yesterday we watched a warrant happen in the plaza two. Two doors down. And. And one of the stores was like, hey, my customers, you know, he was like, after everything was done and it was calmed down and they were waiting on some stuff and the whole scene had calmed down. One of those. The store owners went and said, hey, can you guys move your patrol cars? My customers can't leave. And they told them to get back and they'll. They'll move it when, you know, and they pointed, said, we'll move it when we want to move it. And like, the store owner was like, dude, I've loved cops, but, like, why would you say. Like, why do you have to act?
- [73:51]
Tyler
I didn't even see all that that happened.
- [73:52]
Mike
What the happened that somebody got picked up for a warrant.
- [73:56]
Tyler
And I talked to people like that.
- [73:58]
Mike
Yeah.
- [73:59]
Cole
And so it's just crazy like that. Like, there's no. It's. It's harder to do in a big city, obviously. I can understand. There's like no personal connection, if you will. Between the civilians and the cops. But I hear any one of the cops I know by name, any one of the sheriffs, I know them by name, and they know me as well. Like, I'm a gun dealer on the side, too. I got my SFL sot, and so, like, they all know me.
- [74:25]
James Dela Cruz
But it's just weird
- [74:28]
Cole
to me, looking from the outside in, it's weird. You wouldn't know your cops. You wouldn't know your police or sheriffs or anybody like that. But like I said, then again, you're in a huge city, and that's just not feasible.
- [74:39]
Mike
Yeah, that's true. All right, man, well, thanks so much for calling in, dude. Love having your support. Love, love everything about it, man. And anything you need from us, let us know. Thanks for being part of the 99. And call anytime, bro.
- [74:56]
Cole
We'll do. Thank you. And I appreciate it. And keep doing what you're doing, guys.
- [74:59]
Mike
All right. Thanks, brother.
- [75:00]
Tyler
Might have one more call. One of our. James Della Cruz, one of our supporters, might be calling in on mine.
- [75:08]
Mike
Oh, yeah, because he was like, oh, when you got up to good, get your shirts, he commented and said, and I don't. I just cut loans. I don't know what to talk about. Like, you don't have to talk about anything if you don't want to, but that doesn't mean that you don't have to not call in. But somebody. Gator. Okay, okay, real quick. Before he calls, gator says the YouTube hack. Get on the window playing in the background. Get the window playing in the background. Close your phone. Hit the pull up screen and top and top down like you want to play music and then hit it back.
- [75:43]
Tyler
Yeah, you would do like this. You would, like, come down like this.
- [75:46]
Mike
Well, put. Put it up on your phone.
- [75:48]
Tyler
It would be like, up in that corner.
- [75:51]
Mike
Are you gonna do it, like, play YouTube?
- [75:54]
Tyler
Okay, hold on. Play YouTube.
- [75:56]
Mike
Should I play, like, play us?
- [76:00]
Tyler
I'm gonna play somebody else's. Play my own. My camera's just.
- [76:07]
Mike
Oh, you're hooked up. Don't worry about it. You're hooked up.
- [76:10]
Tyler
No, I gotta. I'm gonna plug it. So I go play in the background, lock my phone.
- [76:16]
Mike
You can't see your phone, though.
- [76:18]
Tyler
All I did was put it in the background. So it's playing right here.
- [76:20]
Mike
I got it. Lock your phone.
- [76:21]
Tyler
Lock my phone. And then hit play. And now it's playing.
- [76:27]
Mike
Oh, okay. So you. You lock your phone. Yep. So which is going to turn it off then you.
- [76:32]
Tyler
Yeah, so like, right now I like my phone. Boom. Locked Then I'm gonna come down from the top up there, and then I'm gonna hit the play button on the music. But now it's locked and playing.
- [76:42]
Mike
This is us. Because they're proactive. All right, I put it in the background. All right, it's in the background playing. I'm gonna lock my phone, which is going to stop it, and then I'm going to swipe down. Oh, swipe down like this. Oh, there it is. YouTube. That's how you keep. There's my wife and her. But also that's how you keep your YouTube. Your phone locked while you play YouTube.
- [77:19]
Tyler
My back of my phone is broken, not the front. If it fell.
- [77:23]
Mike
If it fell, it fell. All right, guys, so that is the YouTube hack.
- [77:30]
Tyler
Here comes James. Ready?
- [77:31]
Mike
Yep.
- [77:33]
Tyler
Yo, what's up, brother?
- [77:35]
James Dela Cruz
Yo, what's going on?
- [77:37]
Tyler
How's it going, man?
- [77:38]
Mike
Damn, you got deep ass voice.
- [77:40]
James Dela Cruz
Nothing much.
- [77:41]
Tyler
I like it. So you're one of the OGs, man. What? Tell it. Tell. Tell us who you are. If you're. If you're allowed to tell us who you are, what you do, and why you listen.
- [77:52]
James Dela Cruz
Well, I'm originally born and raised from Hawaii.
- [77:56]
Tyler
Oh.
- [77:56]
James Dela Cruz
And I moved to Tennessee and medically retired Idiot Mike from the army in 2010. And I just. What you call. I just cut grass for my neighbor in Tennessee. Yeah. So because of my last name, it's. Yeah, well, because of my last name, it's Delacruz. It's Portuguese. But over here, everyone thinks I'm Mexican.
- [78:25]
Tyler
They want to try to deport you.
- [78:26]
Mike
Right. Dude, you. Can he. Can he hear me, Mike?
- [78:29]
Tyler
Yeah.
- [78:30]
Mike
Okay. You sound like you're Native American. I would expect your name to be Rainwater James Rainwater. Because he's really deep boy.
- [78:42]
Tyler
Yes.
- [78:42]
Mike
So you're Portuguese.
- [78:44]
James Dela Cruz
Oh, yeah.
- [78:45]
Mike
Well,
- [78:48]
James Dela Cruz
I'm like. Yeah, I'm. No, no, I don't speak Portuguese.
- [78:51]
Tyler
You have to slow this down for Tyler. You're gonna have to start from the beginning and make it. Make it very clear.
- [78:57]
James Dela Cruz
Okay. I'll tell you my name.
- [78:59]
Tyler
He thinks that there's a port. You have a porch full of geese right now. So he wants you. You have to. You have to break it down for him.
- [79:04]
Mike
And do you know Anthony Ben Dead ass. That's a shirt.
- [79:12]
James Dela Cruz
So I'm a mix. Yeah, I'm a. I'm a mixed plate. I have Hawaiian, Chinese, and Portuguese.
- [79:24]
Mike
Wow.
- [79:26]
Tyler
Okay.
- [79:26]
James Dela Cruz
But. Yeah, but in Hawaii, we. We are like slang, like how over here people have, like the southern talk. In Hawaii, we, it's called pigeon. So it's like broken up English, so it might, it might pass as like Native American.
- [79:51]
Mike
Yeah, I mean, maybe. I mean, I don't want to sound stupid or offensive, but I'll probably sound both.
- [79:56]
Tyler
Here comes both.
- [79:58]
Mike
Yeah, Like, I mean, Hawaii has the Samoan stuff, right? Like, so that's. Their Samoans are like native Americans. Hawaii.
- [80:07]
James Dela Cruz
Yeah. I, I used to be in high school. I was right before I joined the army. I used to be a security guard. And, and I mean, I think the last. I only did it for one year because my last night working as a security guard, we had to like take on five Samoans. And it's like it was almost like watching Transformers the movie. Like small guys fighting the Autobots.
- [80:37]
Mike
Yeah, I've heard, man. Lots of marines and army dudes go to Hawaii and everybody has to learn the hard way that the, the Samoans will tune you up quick. They're big dudes and they punch hard.
- [80:49]
James Dela Cruz
Oh yeah. My Chuck, you can look it up. He's my high school classmate. He roughed up a marine because he was a bouncer and, and he got sent to jail, I think for like a year.
- [81:07]
Mike
Wow.
- [81:07]
James Dela Cruz
Just for doing his job.
- [81:10]
Mike
Well, I saw in a movie like 10 years ago that in this movie, it was a, like a love story movie. It was not a documentary. But there's parts of, of Hawaii that are very, very anti mainland America. They don't like, they do not like what they consider foreigners to be on their land. Does that in the mountains. Is that true?
- [81:35]
James Dela Cruz
Yeah, yeah. There's sovereign people there. They're all like, they don't want US Government, they want all the, all the mainlanders to move out of Hawaii and the US Government to leave Hawaii alone. But at the same time, they depend on the U. S. Government ebt.
- [82:01]
Tyler
How's that work? So it's always like that.
- [82:05]
James Dela Cruz
Yeah, yeah. But I, I didn't bother with, with them. I just, I just did my own because like those guys, they're all pot smoking, like ice smoking guys and they think you know everything. So the world should evolve around them.
- [82:26]
Tyler
What was the culture shock like? Hawaii to Tennessee. That's a, that's quite the move.
- [82:32]
James Dela Cruz
Well, it was big because I, I mainly grew up on the island of Molokai, which back in the day, that's where all the leprosy people would, would go to. And we only had like three black people there. So when, when we moved here to Tennessee.
- [82:53]
Tyler
You're setting me up, man. You set me up.
- [82:56]
James Dela Cruz
No, no, no, no, I'm not.
- [82:57]
Tyler
All right, all right.
- [82:58]
James Dela Cruz
I'm not. Like, me and my wife were like looking around, we're like, whoa, we haven't seen this much. You know, folks like this.
- [83:07]
Tyler
And now you know what a switch is.
- [83:09]
James Dela Cruz
Like, yeah. And, and well, in Hawaii there's more Filipinos. And so you'll see a lot of Filipinos with the same last name as me. And when I would go to the doctors in Hawaii, they'll look at me like, oh, you're not Filipino. But when I come here, everyone's like, oh, you're Mexican. Like, no, I'm not Mexican.
- [83:34]
Tyler
Jesus.
- [83:36]
Mike
Yeah, but, yeah, I think it's cruise that throws people off. Probably. You're right. I would, I would imagine you're Mexican.
- [83:47]
James Dela Cruz
Well, my name. So my neighbor across the street, when we first moved in in Hawaii, we, You'll see if you guys ever go. A lot of guys, when they cut their yards, they have surf shorts, flip flops and no T shirt, cutting grass. And I, I was doing, I was doing that over here. And because of all my Polynesian tattoos I have on, my neighbor's grandson saw me and he ran straight into the house. And two weeks, maybe a week or two later, the grandfather came out and I finally met them. And he asked me, he's like, where are you from? I say, Hawaii. And he's like, huh? He's like, man, my grandsons came running in the house saying, hey, a Mexican gang member moved in. Gang member.
- [84:41]
Tyler
That's great.
- [84:42]
Mike
That happened to me, dude. When I moved into my house that I'm at now, the years ago, I got out, I was driving like a two door Tahoe and like, I got out into my civilian attire, my flat bill hat, you know, and the neighbors all thought I was like a giant piece of. And I was like, no, dude, I'm a cop. And they were like, oh, man, that's awesome.
- [85:03]
Tyler
Even more of a piece of.
- [85:06]
Mike
Oh, yeah.
- [85:07]
James Dela Cruz
Well, it's, it's funny because when I, when we first moved here, I told my wife, I said, man, I, I think I'm gonna pursue my dreams and become like a state trooper or something because Hawaii is like their police over there are kind of sketchy. And so when I tried out, I passed the physical and the, the test. But when I, I'll be honest, I, I can't, I can't have anything sprayed in my eyes. Like going to the eye doctors, I can't stand it. So when they said we're gonna do the pepper spray, I'm like, no, I'm out.
- [85:50]
Mike
Oh, awful, dude. It's awful. I'm not even gonna. All right, so we got a little. A little clip. I can't play a lot of it because it'll get us banned, but I want you to stay on. James. What we're gonna do is. Yeah, Duder says he literally sounds like firewater from the movie Sausage Party. So what I'm going to do is we're going to share the screen and we're going to see for ourselves if that's true.
- [86:20]
Tyler
Okay. I'm super baked and my friends are probably wondering where the hell I am. Will somebody please just tell me something already? Okay. The thing about the Great beyond is we invented it. What?
- [86:35]
Clint
I know, right?
- [86:37]
Tyler
As soon as you're out those doors,
- [86:39]
Mike
the gods kill our asses. All right. A little bit. Yeah. I think you have a deeper voice. I think you sound more Native American than the animated cartoon.
- [86:57]
James Dela Cruz
Yeah,
- [87:00]
Tyler
well.
- [87:00]
Mike
Yeah, yeah.
- [87:01]
Tyler
James, we appreciate you calling in, man. Appreciate your service. Thank you for your service. Thank you for the support and we.
- [87:07]
Mike
Thanks for being one of the boys, dude.
- [87:09]
Tyler
Yes, sir, man. Thank you so much.
- [87:11]
James Dela Cruz
Hell yeah. Yeah, and hey, Mike.
- [87:13]
Tyler
Yeah?
- [87:14]
James Dela Cruz
Send Tyler the. The pictures I sent you on the. On the dm.
- [87:18]
Tyler
Okay, yeah, I'll send it to him.
- [87:22]
James Dela Cruz
All right. All right.
- [87:27]
Tyler
He's got some good artwork. Let me. I'm gonna send it. Save, save, see first. Meanwhile, breaking news. We got video. Let me put that up. Share screen. Of the search and rescue efforts that are underway for the pilot that was shut down.
- [87:47]
Mike
Wait, we have search and rescue efforts?
- [87:50]
Tyler
Yes. There you go. Here we go.
- [87:52]
Mike
This is.
- [87:57]
Tyler
This is being taken by locals. This is like recovery planes flying over. There's the ejection sheet seat recovered from the F15 helicopters. C130 searching for the pilot. As it appears right now, we have not recovered the pilot and we are currently looking for him.
- [88:27]
Mike
So, I mean, wouldn't. If an F15 gets shot down, wouldn't those big ass airplanes be more at risk of getting shot down? Well, I mean, obviously they had to have been shot down by some kind of other fighting force aerial.
- [88:43]
Tyler
Yeah, but I mean that you gotta go. You gotta go find them.
- [88:48]
Mike
Well, no, I'm saying. But like, obviously they. Iran has the ability. They have planes. So, you know, we're just flying Blackhawks and C130s around there,
- [89:02]
Tyler
I guess. I guess. Here, let's bring up some of his art. He's got some really good art. This is one of his ideas from last night.
- [89:14]
Mike
Oh, I messaged him. Oh, he. He fixed it? Hell yeah. Oh, that's why he told you to send it to me. Oh, we keep adding it. I had him put founded by first responders on the bottom.
- [89:26]
Tyler
So there's that. And then we have.
- [89:30]
Mike
I love the 99, dude.
- [89:32]
Tyler
We have. This is a great idea. We should be on this tomorrow. Tomorrow.
- [89:37]
Mike
Anti hero Energy, Our own energy drink. How do you do that?
- [89:42]
Tyler
It would be like kind of like everything else. You just find a distributor and they put your label on it.
- [89:47]
Mike
I guess that it'd be better than alcohol.
- [89:48]
Tyler
They surely don't want us out there, like, mixing our own energy drinks and putting. And then these are Anti Hero Energy Copil condoms. That's the 99 there. That's the good dudes, man. Making stuff like that, cutting it up, being part of the jokes. That's. That's what it's all about. We could get Clint's weakest, Our own sauce. Sauce line. Clint's special white sauce. Sell it at Publix.
- [90:17]
Mike
Clint special white. I'm really interested in seeing what Clint looks like. And I know what he acts like. I know what he sounds like. Now I remember we were trying to protect the identity of Clint for the sake of, you know, humanity. Yeah. Like, just knowing, like, you like a voice actor, you don't want to see the person who actually does the voice because It'll be.
- [90:39]
Tyler
But Mr. White Sauce. We're gonna meet Mr. White Sauce in the white sauce. Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, in a condominium where I'll be staying with all the boys. Very excited about it. I was so happy about that idea, man. We're all in the one.
- [90:55]
Mike
We're all gonna be hanging out.
- [90:56]
Tyler
The boys.
- [90:57]
Mike
Me, you, Jack, Justin, And JoJo and JoJo will be there. King room.
- [91:02]
Tyler
King room.
- [91:04]
Mike
Well, you guys will have your room, but we'll have a living area.
- [91:07]
Tyler
And, yeah, we're gonna all be out there making breakfast.
- [91:09]
Mike
Imagine being Jack on the pull out, like, I've got cancer, guys. I really don't want to drink any more beer. It's like, sorry, Jack. Yeah, sorry, Jack. This will help your cancer.
- [91:20]
Tyler
Chuck it for the boys.
- [91:22]
Mike
No, he's a. He's a good dude. He likes. He likes the dark humor. Every time I say a dark humor joke to Jack, I'm like. And he laughs. He loves it.
- [91:32]
Tyler
I usually start with, are you still. Are you still playing around with cancer? Are you getting serious and coming to Florida? Like, are you done with this charade? That's usually what I give him.
- [91:42]
Mike
Yeah. I remember one time he had an issue and he was in the hospital. Hospital waiting room for almost 24 hours. And I called them. I'm like, yo, dude, like, why are you being such a about it? Go home, dude. G Money will not be there.
- [92:02]
Tyler
No, the van won't make it that far.
- [92:06]
Mike
Yeah, I don't know, but I. I'm putting my.
- [92:10]
Tyler
Here, I'll take the bet. G money's not going to end up anywhere. That's my bet. Write it down. What's the date?
- [92:15]
Mike
End up anywhere. What do you mean?
- [92:17]
Tyler
He's gonna just big league us constantly. April 3, 2026. G Money. I'll never make an event.
- [92:25]
Mike
No, no pineapples on the door.
- [92:28]
Tyler
I don't know why. I don't know. You've. You know, my wife, I think they're upset. You know how far. You know how far fetched that is after meeting my wife?
- [92:36]
Mike
Yeah, There they go.
- [92:42]
Tyler
I talked about. I talked about the Tesla painting my balls. When after I said, I was like, oh, God, I'm like, looking at my
- [92:48]
Mike
wife, like, trying to be like, no, no, I don't want.
- [92:52]
Tyler
Yeah, I was like, what am I saying? Like, what is. She's right there, like, being reckless.
- [92:57]
Mike
We're not used to having women. And now we have a bunch of women.
- [93:02]
Tyler
Oh, man. Good times. Phone lines are open. We got about 30 minutes left.
- [93:08]
Mike
Yeah, dude, Casual Friday is the time to do it, man. This. I love casual Fridays. It is a very underrated show. We can lit. We go off the cuff, talk about whatever we want. She was all over Mike's boost.
- [93:25]
Tyler
Oh, don't forget to play that. You want to play a COPS video?
- [93:28]
Mike
Cops.
- [93:29]
Tyler
The guy that was at the scene of the COPS camera. Member that? He send you that?
- [93:36]
Mike
I got it.
- [93:37]
Tyler
They recently reached Facebook. Thought he talked to you as well.
- [93:43]
Mike
What's his name?
- [93:45]
Tyler
James. Oh, here we go. Here we go. Here comes the call. Go ahead. You're live.
- [93:53]
Clint
Yo, what's going on, guys?
- [93:55]
Mike
What's going on? Yo, what's up, Clint?
- [93:57]
Tyler
What's up, Clint? It's been a minute.
- [94:00]
Clint
Me and my, My wife has today off. So we were sitting here eating lunch and listening to y', all, and she was shaking her head about which part? Mr. White Sauce. Mr. White Sauce.
- [94:12]
Tyler
Clint's Mr. White.
- [94:15]
Nick the Gun Guy
I, I.
- [94:17]
Clint
This is not really a story. It's just something funny that happened. I think about it all the time. It makes me giggle. My first deployment to Iraq, my. I had a roommate. I had an interesting room. I stayed in a. A brick building that in my room I had. It was me. It was a black dude, it was a gay dude and a Mexican dude. And the Mexican dude. His name was Rob, and he never left the base, so we called him FOB Rob. And. But anyways, my black buddy, his name was Molly, and we. We were real close. And he, uh. I can't. I came back from Mission one day, and I walked in and Molly was sitting on his bed. And I mean, he was just covered in sand, dust, the. The moon dust. And, uh, he was, you know, soaking wet sweat, just dragging. You could tell he was dragging. And he was eating. He was a pretty dark dude, too. And he was eating a mre, and you could just tell he was down in the dumps. And I looked up and he opened the. The candy packet for a Tootsie Roll out of mre and I seen his face light up. And when he went to put the Tootsie Roll in his mouth, I said, hey, man, watch your fingers.
- [95:48]
Tyler
Oh, boy. Clint.
- [95:53]
Mike
That was more of a dad joke. That was quicker. It was quicker. I mean, it was definitely.
- [96:02]
Clint
You had to be there, but.
- [96:03]
Tyler
No, that's a good one.
- [96:04]
Clint
It made him happy, though. It made him happy.
- [96:06]
Tyler
Yeah, whatever was down the dirt. The racist joke.
- [96:10]
Clint
He only dated. He only dated white girls. And he was taking this. Before we left to deploy, he. He was taking this white girl on a date, and he asked her where she wanted. They were riding around, and he was asking where she wanted to eat, and he was naming all these pretty decent restaurants, and they were driving by a Golden Corral. And she said, what about Golden Corral? And he said, I mean, I guess. And she started bouncing up and down in the seat like, yeah, oh, we're going to Golden Corral. And he said. He. He stopped. He stopped to get gas, and he. He had to fart. So he went to pump gas, and he let out this hellacious fart.
- [96:58]
Mike
And.
- [96:58]
Clint
And when he walked back, the windows.
- [97:05]
Tyler
How did that go? It's gonna get. It's gonna get worse after going Corral as well, so.
- [97:11]
Clint
Right, right. And he. He was there the. He was there the day.
- [97:15]
Mike
The.
- [97:17]
Clint
One of the times I got into a couple of them, but I got into a fist fight with a dude at work. We were cleaning out of Conex. We were cleaning out a Conex, and it was, of course, blazing summertime, and we're cleaning out this Connex, and you know how you got to have a ground guide to go through the motor pool? You know, I joked and said, that's why Tyler made sergeant, so he could ground guide and. But my buddy. My buddy was creeping through the parking lot in a soft skin Humvee. With no ground guide. And he was. He was looking left and he was looking right because, I mean, you know, honestly, it's completely unheard of. I can't believe he had the balls to even attempt it. And I was a corporal, and he. I picked up an MRE And I threw this MRE Like a freaking touchdown pass from. From half the field. I didn't think at all. I thought at most it was going to hit the hood of the humvee and scare him and didn't have no doors on it. Hit him right in the face while he's. And he slammed on brakes, and me and him were like best friends. And he came and tackled me in the conex and we fought in the conex for two or three minutes.
- [98:37]
Tyler
Wild. Well, Clint, we're. We're gonna see you here soon, right? You're coming to Myrtle beach.
- [98:41]
Clint
Me and Mike Fritz and both our wives, their. Their sisters.
- [98:46]
Tyler
Beautiful, Beautiful.
- [98:48]
Clint
You are going to get to meet my wife and you'll. You understand why I am the way I am.
- [98:53]
Tyler
You as well, you will. You will meet my wife and understand the way I am. So we're gonna. We're gonna have a perfect time.
- [99:01]
Clint
We are quite a contrast. You'll be.
- [99:03]
Tyler
Believe it.
- [99:03]
Clint
You'll be shocked.
- [99:04]
Tyler
All right, Clint. We appreciate it, man.
- [99:07]
Mike
Pineapples?
- [99:08]
Tyler
No, Clint's not involved in that.
- [99:10]
Clint
There are definitely no pineapples
- [99:15]
Nick the Gun Guy
here.
- [99:15]
Tyler
This is updated. Breaking news say our pilot has been rescued. All right, so it says one crew member from the F15E fighter was down over Iran, was rescued by American forces. Two officials confirmed to CBS News on Friday the F15 is a two member air crew aircraft. The search and rescue mission is ongoing. So one crew member has been recovered. One is still missing. As we sit right now,
- [99:44]
Mike
one jet. Two.
- [99:46]
Tyler
One jet, yeah, two pilots and one is recovered. And you can't imagine they went too far from each other.
- [99:52]
Mike
Well, I. I hope to God, dude, that they. The other one didn't get, like, broken leg and get captured. That would not be good. That would not be good at all.
- [100:01]
Tyler
No, it would not.
- [100:02]
Mike
Because they're threatening to feed u. S. Service members of sharks.
- [100:06]
Tyler
Like, you almost thought, like, as. As you get older, like with this button when, you know, Trump said bomb Iran, you. You really. I never thought of POWs again. Like, I figured it was just gonna be like a massive air campaign just blowing up and. All right, we're done. I mean, there was a report I saw this morning that said even if Iran quits or gives up or piece you, they're not giving up the street. They're gonna keep blocking it. So it's like. Yeah, man.
- [100:31]
Clint
It's.
- [100:31]
Tyler
It's a wild thing.
- [100:33]
Mike
Hey, can you. Can you get Nick the. Can you post your number or the number to call? Yeah, Nick the gun guy wants to call in, but they need to. We need to use your phone. All right, Nick the gun guy. That's the number to call. Call in. But. Yeah, I don't know. I don't foresee this conflict being over anytime soon as we're not either, huh?
- [100:59]
Tyler
I don't think so either. You know, here's my take. Everybody wants to about. And the gas price seems to be the number one, but I get it. Like, it's an extra $10 a tank. It's not easy. But in the name, if we're. You know, if we're gonna eliminate something as evil as that and everything will stabilize it, it's an extra for a couple months, a little extra gas, this and that. It's like. I don't know. I definitely don't want to see captured pilot that. You know, that. That bothers me more than gas prices. I don't mind paying an extra, dude. It's miserable in the BMW. That 93 octane is 505 a gallon.
- [101:35]
Mike
But what kind of gas is it?
- [101:38]
Tyler
I have to use 93 the octane in the BMW, so it's.
- [101:43]
Mike
Wait. Oh, so is that more than. Is that.
- [101:46]
Tyler
The regular is 87, so. 87. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can go higher. There's someplace like Sunoco has more, but. All right, here we go.
- [101:55]
Mike
Whatever I put. I put Heather on. Okay, Go ahead.
- [101:58]
Tyler
Car coming in. You're on the air. What's going on?
- [102:02]
Nick the Gun Guy
What's up, boys? It's Nick the gun guy.
- [102:04]
Tyler
Hey, what's up, man?
- [102:06]
Nick the Gun Guy
Not much. I'm glad you guys enjoyed Huck, man. He's been smiling from ear to ear trying to plan a trip down to come do some fun stuff with you guys.
- [102:14]
Tyler
Hell, yeah.
- [102:14]
Nick the Gun Guy
And make a trip out of it, so.
- [102:16]
Mike
Oh, man, that's awesome.
- [102:17]
Nick the Gun Guy
I also want to send you guys and the wife some yetis and some Stanley's. So if that's cool with you guys.
- [102:24]
Tyler
We appreciate everything, man. Absolutely. I'll. I'll text you everything once we. Once we get off.
- [102:30]
Nick the Gun Guy
No, absolutely. I think Tyler's had. Got some stuff from you before. I believe we did the green yetis for you, Tyler, if you remember.
- [102:35]
Mike
Yeah.
- [102:35]
Nick the Gun Guy
Back in the day. Okay. Yeah. No, don't think.
- [102:38]
Mike
I might have lost that one.
- [102:42]
Nick the Gun Guy
You're good, brother. That's why I wanted to reach out. Like I said, you know the haters. I love what you guys do. And like I said, do some fun stuff. Maybe do some giveaways or some stuff for the show too.
- [102:51]
Tyler
Absolutely. We're always about that.
- [102:54]
Mike
Yeah, you. Anything. That would be amazing.
- [102:58]
Nick the Gun Guy
Yeah, no, absolutely. But I'm gonna reach out to Justin too. I'm gonna try to have lunch with him because I'll be down in Coral Gables next week for some stuff and try to link up with him as well. But yeah, no, definitely on that side of town quite a bit. So I'd love to get you guys some stuff and do some fun stuff for the show.
- [103:12]
Tyler
Yeah, man. Yeah, dude, Anytime you're near the studio, man, let us know. Dude, you want to come by?
- [103:18]
Nick the Gun Guy
No. Well, I'll try. Maybe I can see, you know, like, he's joking about divorces. Maybe Nick's got room for a bunk bed so him and I can start living together in the van or something.
- [103:32]
Mike
You know, I think G Money will probably be in Florida within the next year or two. I don't know.
- [103:40]
Tyler
We hope.
- [103:40]
Mike
We hope.
- [103:42]
Tyler
We're building our.
- [103:43]
Nick the Gun Guy
Trying to make it out to Huck's place.
- [103:46]
Mike
What's that?
- [103:47]
Tyler
That's because he hugs. He likes hugs better than us. He's a. He's a fair weather friend. He sees a good. He sees a guy with 2, 300,000 followers and he's like, who the is antihero? We don't know those guys.
- [104:01]
Nick the Gun Guy
Am I hearing G Money could possibly be the mole? Is that what we're saying there, Mike?
- [104:05]
Tyler
No, I don't. I don't distrust him.
- [104:07]
Nick the Gun Guy
No, no, but no, man, your guys stuff's been. Been awesome, man. Seriously, I appreciate you guys still doing all the stuff you're doing, like you said, bringing some shining light to some things out there. And like I said, keep kicking ass. And I'll reach out to you guys and get some yetis to you guys and the wife and whatnot.
- [104:25]
Tyler
Awesome, man. We appreciate it so much, dude.
- [104:27]
Mike
Thank you so much.
- [104:28]
Nick the Gun Guy
Awesome, guys. Have a good weekend. Have a good Easter.
- [104:30]
Tyler
Take care.
- [104:31]
Mike
Later, dude.
- [104:34]
Tyler
And we're back.
- [104:36]
Mike
99, baby. That's what casual Fridays are the best.
- [104:41]
Tyler
Some shows would never let anybody call in. They can't take the spotlight off themselves. But we will take your call. We will listen to you. We will be engaged. It ain't about us. It's about you guys. I have. I'm gonna bring in South Carolina. I have a ton. No of gun holsters. Like, let me show you this Are
- [105:02]
Mike
they for you to distribute?
- [105:04]
Tyler
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I have so many, dude, that you. You won't even believe it. This is. Look at this one. This is that Goon misfits Goon logo.
- [105:14]
Clint
Oh, I.
- [105:14]
Mike
Who like that one? I have that on computer sticker. Okay.
- [105:17]
Tyler
In the waistband, holster. I gotta. I can't show the other one because I'll get fired, arrested. But the other one is a Glock knockoff logo. But I have, like. I'm gonna bring these to South Carolina. So if anybody's got a concealed carry, most of them are made for the Sig or the Glock concealed carry in. In the waistband. I'm gonna bring a big bag of them to Myrtle beach and probably give some away or sell them if they buy them first. So buy early before I give them away.
- [105:43]
Mike
You do. You're, like, the worst salesman ever, because you give away.
- [105:47]
Tyler
Hey, man, here we go.
- [105:50]
Mike
Like, mike, stop giving away. He's like, what, man? I'm like, well, we're used to cheap cops, and cops are very cheap people. And they'll be like. They'll try and wheel and deal you. You're like, listen, dude, I'm making, like, 7 cents a sticker. Can you please just pay what I'm asking? I'm not asking for $10 a sticker. I'm asking for $3 a sticker. Gonna cost me $2.93 to make
- [106:13]
Tyler
is pretty bad.
- [106:15]
Mike
How about four stickers for 10 bucks? You're like, fine. I watched Mike go fine, like, five times.
- [106:24]
Tyler
It was cool, though. That last one was cool. I mean, I have so many stuff. I'm gonna bring all the stickers, too. I have hundred thousands of stickers. I'm gonna bring them. And I don't charge much. I usually do 3, 4 bucks a sticker or throw a deal together just, you know, is what it is. But, yeah, I watch cops absolutely. Either try to take them for free or I had to put a big sign. Is it not for sale?
- [106:49]
Mike
Like, yeah. So if you guys don't know. Cop conferences. A lot of, like, million dollar companies go to these conferences, and they give away free stickers everywhere. And cops turn into, like, homeless people. People when they go to these. And me and Michael, our first event ever was in a parking lot because our tire blew and we missed the event. But that we had an event in the parking lot, and it was like a horde of zombies coming, snatching all the stickers. Well, we sell stickers because we're merchandise companies. We don't. We're not like, Glock. Glock can give away, like probably five stickers. Yeah, they can give it. They. I guarantee you companies like Glock or these big million dollar companies, they probably give away like a thousand dollars worth of merch a day at these events. Hat stickers, they're just giving away because
- [107:39]
Tyler
they don't sell merch top. They don't give a. Yeah, we're.
- [107:43]
Mike
We're trying to sell those. So it's really hard because we only make money when those people run out, when they're like, hey, we're out of hats, dude. We gave away all our hats. And now somebody wants to like, well, I want to go to this event and I want to go to the trade show day and get something like, these knuckleheads have t shirts for 25 bucks. I'll just grab a T shirt. That's kind of, you know, that's kind of how we make money competing with Glock.
- [108:06]
Tyler
Yeah, but no, that. That one in the last. The last two were good. I mean, we did decent interaction. That's most important at those events is interacting and meeting people. And obviously at Myrtle beach is going to be.
- [108:23]
Mike
That's going to be fun.
- [108:25]
Tyler
I'll be the enemy on the job as dead guy.
- [108:28]
Mike
I don't think you are. I think.
- [108:31]
Tyler
I hope it happens. I want it to happen.
- [108:34]
Mike
You should just get on stage with a mic and be like, you guys
- [108:37]
Tyler
are all tone alert at these mothers.
- [108:40]
Mike
Yeah, you could be the heel.
- [108:42]
Tyler
Somebody sent me that yesterday. They're like, hey, where's those guys at? Did you ruin them? I'm like, no, dude. I'm like, I have no idea where they're at. I mean, I don't want anybody to fail. Well, not anybody but those guys. I didn't. I'll be the heel.
- [109:01]
Mike
My potato.
- [109:03]
Tyler
No, not on my screen.
- [109:07]
Mike
It keeps freezing for some reason.
- [109:09]
Tyler
Over and over. Like we talked about with domestic yesterday is you can't support. You can't turn a blind eye to the bad cops or the bad agencies and just support the good ones. You got to be. You got to do both. So that's what I commend. The bad guy.
- [109:31]
Mike
Myrtle beach to me is a preview of Jersey shores at night.
- [109:35]
Tyler
Still, we still. Oh, you know, we have to get. We have to get with Natalie. Yeah, we got to make that flyer.
- [109:45]
Mike
I need all the info to the. To the place.
- [109:47]
Tyler
I'll just send you the. Yeah, I'll send you the.
- [109:49]
Mike
Just said I can figure it out. And. And the guy is just pretty much like, do your thing. Oh, yeah, he he said so he doesn't know.
- [109:57]
Tyler
He said we can hook up. Like he's got. He. They have concerts there every night. So he's like, that's why he said Wednesday was best. Thursday, Friday, Saturday, they have concerts. They have their own sound system. He's like, you guys can plug right into it. You're going to broadcast through the whole bar. So it might be. We might want to go check it when we get there. Like when we get to maybe go have a beer there Monday night or Tuesday night, whatever. Night before, I think, and everything. Yeah, they have. They have food and all that. So maybe we check that out, see what the setup looks like. And then that way we're ready for Wednesday night. I gotta go out to dinner with Mr. White Sauce. For sure.
- [110:34]
Mike
Yeah. Oh, yeah, we gotta go out. You know, Clinton, Mike, Fritz. That'd be cool. Or at least grab a beer with them.
- [110:40]
Tyler
Absolutely.
- [110:40]
Mike
I'm kind of a homebody. I don't really leave, but I will. I will. If it's the 99, I didn't. When we go to these big conventions, I'm not like, you know, if it's. That's my, that's my. That's my flaw is that I don't like to go out, but I do, like, do. I will. If it's with the guys, you know, our crew.
- [110:59]
Tyler
First thing I do is Google casinos nearby. And then.
- [111:02]
Mike
I know you do. Before we're even there, Mike's got them all pinned down.
- [111:05]
Tyler
The one in these. The one in D.C. we pulled in at 4:30 in the morning and I walked a mile to get to the Uber and then got on the Uber and went to MGM until like.
- [111:15]
Mike
Yeah, we were sleeping in the parking lot.
- [111:17]
Tyler
Yeah, I went straight to the casino and it was packed. At 4:30 in the morning. It was packed. Couldn't even move around in there. That's how busy it was.
- [111:27]
James Dela Cruz
Huge too.
- [111:28]
Tyler
MGM in Washington, D.C. are right outside. Prince, Princess George.
- [111:34]
Mike
Sin man. Full of sin. That's what hell is going to be like, dude. Packed. Telling you, dude, right?
- [111:43]
Tyler
Can I play? Can I play?
- [111:46]
Mike
You would never say guests four in the morning is just jam packed full of sinners and people looking for a place to go. Sin.
- [111:53]
Tyler
Yes.
- [111:54]
Mike
I've never. Oh, I. I walked through casinos because I stayed at a. I stayed at a hotel that Adam. But I've never actually like spent time inside a casino. So I don't. I don't know anything about it, but I'd imagine if it's packed full of people at 4 in the morning. Those people are probably up to no good.
- [112:11]
Tyler
They're praying. They're praying. No, they're praying constantly. Constantly. Please, God, give me a better hand. They're praying constantly. God comes.
- [112:20]
Mike
Like church? Yeah, it's like church.
- [112:23]
Tyler
Prince George.
- [112:24]
Mike
We're going to church tonight. Me and Heather taking the kids. It's a good Friday. All y' all go to church tonight, man. Take the family. It's good. Church in the evening is different. It's fun. It's. I love going to, like, New Orleans Christmas Eve service. It was a tradition. We were kids, so we're going to.
- [112:46]
Tyler
I spent a lot of time at church, but it was.
- [112:49]
Mike
Yeah. You seem like one of those people that feel like. Like, although you're Christian and you know, you. You've kind of, like, have it and like you've served so much time in church as a kid that it kind of like, like, tastes more, man.
- [113:05]
Tyler
I worked the overtime details at the churches a lot. I know, but I sat in the service and I became very friendly with everybody. When they needed something, I said, here's my number. Call me if you guys need something, like, help them put on. We're gonna help them put on active shooter training and all that kind of stuff. So I was at church a lot. I was just getting paid.
- [113:22]
Mike
You were at church when you were being paid to be there. Got it?
- [113:24]
Tyler
Yeah.
- [113:24]
Mike
Yeah.
- [113:25]
Tyler
Protecting the people in church so that the. The evil didn't come through the door.
- [113:29]
Mike
Yeah, Protecting. Now they have. My church has dudes that do that, but they're. They're like. Like soft fanboys. They're all extremely overweight. They have beards and they love guns. And they have always have something to say about police.
- [113:48]
Tyler
Yeah.
- [113:49]
Mike
Tyler. So you're a priester. I don't know what that is, Mike. I don't know if I'm allowed to say yes or if I'm maybe.
- [113:58]
Tyler
Chrysler.
- [113:59]
Mike
Oh, Chrysler. When are the XL rider die shirts getting restocked? Let me check that out. Because they should be in stock, bro. That would be bad products. Ride. Holy guacamole. It says. It says there's no Ride or Die xl. I'm gonna have to check into that, Nick. I'm gonna send you a message. If I check it. Sometimes weird happens. So it'll just. That's it.
- [114:34]
Tyler
What do you have a medium for my buddy? I've had it for six months to get. I've had it for six months to give to him, and I haven't given it to him yet.
- [114:42]
Mike
Say you're spray.
- [114:45]
Tyler
I could get in it. Can you?
- [114:50]
Mike
No, I cannot. It'll be. It'll be a real table
- [114:55]
Tyler
Thursday night special, dude.
- [114:58]
Mike
I'm telling you guys. I don't know what happened, but I'm blaming it on the dairy and the meals out.
- [115:03]
Tyler
Yeah, because you eat pizza every night on Thursdays and it doesn't happen. But just that night,
- [115:09]
Mike
just that one night. I only have one piece of pizza. Maybe on pizza night. Sometimes I don't even.
- [115:15]
Tyler
I hated myself. Well, I had one that I got that got stolen and then.
- [115:23]
Mike
Piece of pizza.
- [115:24]
Tyler
Yeah, I took two bites. And my wife, when you came in
- [115:27]
Mike
and like, taunted my kid with it, and you're like, nah, this ain't for you.
- [115:30]
Tyler
I went to get a drink.
- [115:31]
Mike
Oh, thank you. Thank you.
- [115:33]
Tyler
I'd already eaten it. I was two bites out of it. And then I told him. I told him no. Turned the corner and it got pulled out of my hand by my wife when I came back through the door. Like two and a half pieces.
- [115:44]
Mike
You gotta go eat it in the back in the dark by yourself.
- [115:49]
Tyler
Check. I probably do if you text me or get with me, Nick the gun guy after the show. I have a massive bag. I can go look. I have probably do. I don't know what designs they are, but I definitely would have a. Probably have a Glock.48.
- [116:07]
Mike
All right, man. I ain't got nothing else, dude.
- [116:09]
Tyler
I don't make Logan cry. Logan told me one day, straight to my face, I said, hey, man, some. Somebody said, your mom. And I was like, all right, kid.
- [116:18]
Mike
He said, your mom. I remember that.
- [116:20]
Tyler
Yeah, your mom. So when he asked for the pizza, I said I spilled his dress, knocked his drink over. I'm like, karen, no pizza, no drink.
- [116:29]
Mike
Nobody will believe you.
- [116:31]
Tyler
Yeah, the cameras are off, kid. It's my story.
- [116:34]
Mike
There's no cameras in the studio.
- [116:38]
Tyler
Nah, they're good kids, man.

Mike
All right, we got a open mic today, 3pm on the counterculture Inc. Network.

Tyler
That was on Copville.
- [117:16]
Mike
I know. I mean, I must have missed that phone call that you were like, hey, do you want to do this?
- [117:20]
Tyler
God, dude, that was a good business partner letting you get some much needed time to yourself.
- [117:27]
Mike
