• Incident with Natalie and Rate Negotiations ([01:52]–[05:37])

    • Quote:
      “I was like, oh, damn, I should have fucking asked for more.” – Jason ([04:30])
  • They joke about their own worth, social media platform differences, and how difficult it is to know your actual value in deals.

• IMAX, 70mm, and Gimmicks ([12:43]–[13:53])

  • Light debate: Is 70mm film actually worth it? How about 4DX with water, wind, and moving seats?

• Natalie reveals she has “free tables for life” at the club.

• Talk of new “11 Apartments” being built next door—and their joking speculation about what wild amenities residents will have (underground tunnels, in-room massages, strippers on demand).

  • Quote:
    “Do you know how fucking dangerous that is to live across a strip [club], man?” – David ([41:01])

• David recalls the only time he managed to leave the club early—when a possible break-in at his house in L.A. made him rush home ([43:05]).

And she shouldn't have. She shouldn't have done that.

Oh, yeah.

[B]

It was like possible brand deal.

[C]

Oh, God.

[B]

Okay.

[C]

Yes.

[B]

So you're not. You're not involved with it.

[C]

I'm not sitting up for this shit.

[A]

Let me get pissed off already.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Natalie and brand deals.

[B]

I go, two things that should be. I text Nat. I go, how much? Thinking like, huh? She's like manager. She's in the fucking. She's wheeling, dealing all the time.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

So I go, how much should I charge for this? Like that?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And she goes, I Don't know. A thousand? And I go, 1,000.

[A]

Like you're offended?

[B]

Yeah, I'm like, a thousand. What am I doing? I'm a thousand. I can't do it for a thousand. Like, I can't do that, you know, Like. So I go, I don't know.

[C]

The easiest thing in the world to do anyways. Continue.

[B]

I go. I go, I don't know. I was thinking, like, 2500, like, minimum.

[A]

Right, okay.

[B]

Right. And she goes, okay, yeah. If you think you want to do that, then go do that. And I go, okay. So then. So we're on the chain. Me and Nat are on the chain.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

I write back first. Fucking idiot. Like a fucking idiot.

[C]

I know where this is going.

[B]

Like a fucking idiot. I Write back first, 2,500. Right, Dave? 90 seconds later, another email comes in. Natalie's rates come in. Nat wants 6K. I go, wait a minute.

[A]

Oh, for her? Yeah, for her.

[B]

I go, 6K. Okay, fine. Nat couldn't get 6K. Tell me I can get four. I was. I was double. More than double.

[A]

You almost triple.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Damn.

[B]

I couldn't believe it. I was like, God damn it.

[A]

Oh, wow. She was like, yeah, you're. She was doing the math in her head, and she's like, jason is three times less than me of a human.

[B]

Yeah. That's Natalie of management skills.

[C]

Is that first of all?

[A]

Wait, wait, wait. So did you guys land it?

[B]

Well, it was too late for me to. I almost. I was like, well, wait a minute.

[C]

Actually, it's for all of us. It's for. It's through the podcast. It's a. It's a brand deal.

[A]

I don't.

[C]

Even if I want to say.

[B]

Don't say what it is.

[C]

Okay, wait.

[A]

I'm so confused.

[C]

For each of us to make. It's like, the same post, but we each have to post it, essentially. Oh.

[A]

So you'd get paid 2500. Natalie wanted 6500. And then you also send my rates.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't. I didn't see your rates.

[C]

Yeah, and thank God you didn't.

[A]

Probably couldn't fit on the page.

[C]

But that is really funny.

[B]

So funny to me. And then. And then I wanted to be like,

[A]

but she didn't fuck up your negotiations. I'm confused why you're angry.

[B]

Because I went to her initially to be like, she just.

[A]

She just sold you low. That's it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But you're still, like, in the running for, like, the money, right?

[B]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's not that it's not that big of a deal, but it's just like. I was like, oh, damn, I should have fucking asked for more.

[C]

But like, when they look at your page versus my page, like, I. It's just. It's different.

[B]

But I. I looked at. I looked at it. Oh, my God.

[C]

I looked at you, Mr. Pumpkin. Million.

[B]

Multi.

[A]

Multimillionaire.

[C]

I mean, it is.

[A]

It's different.

[B]

I looked at your page. It's not that different.

[C]

Wait, why? I'm active on it.

[B]

I looked at your page.

[A]

Yeah, can we stop with the being active on it thing?

[B]

But anyways, in the future, gas me up a little bit.

[C]

Two views on his thing and he's like, I want 2500. I'm like, they're not going to pay you 2500.

[A]

Okay? You're confusing people. Because the way this is coming off is it seems like you're talking about like a main social media page, right? And it's not. But still, that's why you sound triple mean what you're saying, Natalie, because you're basically like, in my head. In my head, you're like, I looked at his Instagram and it's shit. That's not what you guys are talking about.

[C]

But I would.

[A]

Your argument actually makes sense, Natalie, if people knew the platform.

[C]

Sure, yeah.

[A]

I mean, but still, fuck you.

[C]

I'm not. Not to, like, double down on being a bitch here, but, like, people's platforms are priced differently. That's just the way. The way the cookie crumbles.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, that's fine. Whatever.

[A]

Sorry, Jay. Guys, so change the subject here because it's really awkward.

[B]

Is it? I don't think it's awkward.

[A]

No, I'm kidding.

[B]

I've learned to just not be awkward. Nothing wrong.

[A]

You're actually like one of the most awkward.

[B]

No, no, no, no, no.

[A]

Of all time.

[B]

But I'm not awkward. I'm not awkward. When it comes to confrontation, you are.

[A]

Can I ask why you're yelling?

[C]

He's upset about the money.

[A]

You've been yelling like, like really loud. And I hate to be that guy. I just woke up from a nap. I just. It's just coming here quick.

[B]

Sorry.

[A]

Little sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.

[B]

Let's take it down on us. Thank you.

[A]

You're just screaming. I don't know. I fuck with it. I'm listening.

[B]

I'm passionate.

[A]

I'm pissed at Natalie, too.

[B]

Good.

[A]

I fucking. I am totally on your side.

[B]

Good. Thank you.

[A]

I understand why. I understand why you're screaming, but I guess I. I just deal with it. A lot.

[C]

So like stay mad, hoes. Stay mad.

[A]

Okay, whatever. I hope you lose that job. I surprised. So a year ago, which time flies a year ago, four days ago, July 17, a year ago, I bought Jason tickets to Odyssey. Which is crazy. I was like up at like 6am or whenever they went on sale and I bought him and I gave him the tickets. I went with him. I was sitting right in your area but on the other side of the theater. And they were so fucking. The tickets were so bad I had to leave. Did two people sit next to you, by the way?

[B]

Oh, that was a whole mishegoss. Oh my God.

[A]

What happened?

[B]

I don't know what you did. You gave my seats away to somebody. That was crazy.

[A]

Okay, so. Yeah.

[C]

Wait, what?

[A]

So we were at the Odyssey. It was like the first. The first screening of it. Whatever.

[C]

You guys went last night to go

[A]

watch the movie last night?

[B]

Oh, you weren't there?

[C]

No, no.

[A]

Natalie didn't go.

[B]

Did you go today?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Oh, okay. And then. And then instead of last night we went. We Woke up at 6 in the morning. I woke up at 5:30 this morning. That's crazy because. Because Avengers Doomsday tickets went on sale at 6am okay. So I woke up at 5:30 and then it was on my phone for like 45 minutes in a queue to buy Avengers tickets.

[C]

Wow.

[A]

It was like 45 minutes hour queues. I got it right away. I got the Doomsday tickets. I got great seats. I'm super excited. I'm good. In December I will be so ready to watch this movie. Then our Showtime started at 7am so we got there at like 6:55. I've never watched a movie in my life, I think before noon.

[C]

I mean, I didn't even know that movie theater offered a 7am Showtime. Like that's fucking.

[A]

They were serving muffins, they had popcorn and they had breakfast, which is very fitting.

[C]

And the theater was full.

[B]

Really?

[A]

Oh yeah.

[C]

Completely full. Crazy.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

It was that good.

[C]

It is. Yeah.

[A]

The movie's actually that good.

[C]

But also we went to the Chinese Theater on Hollywood Boulevard, which is like five. It's like 500 seats in that theater. It was like no joke of.

[A]

Yeah, no, it's. It's massive. And every seat. I mean to what you were saying about how good the movie was, Christopher Nolan's movies really do feel like, like people said this before. They're like events.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Rather than like movies. And it really does feel like.

[B]

I thought it was one of the best movies. Top 10 movies. I've ever seen in my entire life.

[C]

Really?

[B]

I. I loved it. And I'm not even like a, you know, that type of guy.

[A]

No, it's incredible.

[B]

Yeah, it's incredible.

[A]

Well, Matt Damon's incredible.

[B]

He's incredible. You know what's nice about Matt Damon? He's. He plays like the. You just want to root for him because he's humble.

[A]

He's so humble.

[B]

So good. Like, I kept thinking about other actors that could have been in that spot and I was like, nobody? No, nobody.

[A]

In Interstellar, Matt Damon plays like an asshole for the first time.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And even that is like pretty well grounded. He's really good at like just. He's really good at playing the everyday guy. He's really good at it. Did you see that? Like that meme that's like Hollywood spent like over a billion dollars trying to get Matt Damon home.

[B]

No.

[C]

Oh, yeah, I saw this.

[A]

Yeah, yeah. It's like Saving Private Ryan, Interstellar, now Odyssey, the Martian. All of these premises are. Matt Damon can't get home.

[B]

Oh, wow. Wow.

[C]

That's crazy.

[A]

It's really crazy.

[C]

It's like a serious type of like typecast.

[B]

So you went into the theater and you just said no to these?

[A]

Well, I sat down. They played like a little Dune trailer.

[B]

Saw that.

[A]

And I could not watch the Dune thing. I was like, I'm so. I. We were on the side and we were fifth row at an iMac 70 millimeter screening. This screen is, I don't know what, three store five stories tall. It's fucking huge. The screen is ginormous.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And we were four screens away. So I was like, I got, I got to go. On my way out, I ran to these two guys who were talking to the usher because I was going to go to the usher and I was going to be like, hey, is it. Can we stand here and just wait for seats if there are some open? And he ultimately told me that, like, there's no chance that there's going to be any open just because it's like a sold out show and everyone's been anticipating it. But they were talking to the usher right before me and they were like, are we in the right theater? And they had tickets to theater two or three that didn't have the IMAX screen. It was like a small screen. I was like, oh, I have two extra tickets. Because by you I had four tickets, right? Okay.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And I was like, but my friend's gonna be sitting in the seats I'm about to give you.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

So you have to sit Right next to him. Yeah, because these two are his. And this is the only screenshot I have. But I have four tickets there. Yeah, but I only have a screenshot of the two. So you were, like, in Jane 819-81820.

[B]

Yeah. And they were in two one, F18 and F19.

[A]

Yeah. And they were in F20. So then they got there. What happened?

[B]

Well, these motherfuckers. I got there and I was like, you guys are in my seats. And they're like, oh, no, no, no, no, no. Your friend gave us these seats. And I was like, what? And you are so flippant when. Whenever I talk to you, you like. You never take, like, an extra. And you know I'm old. Like, take a fucking extra second with me because I saw you outside. You. I thought you were already. You were so pissed off you didn't have seats. And I was texting you, and you were sending me angry texts. All I was asking was like, where's the QR code? You never sent me that. I'm thinking, we need a QR code.

[A]

I don't have a QR code.

[B]

Okay, you never had one. So, anyways, I got in, and I see him.

[A]

You're like, okay, we're probably gonna leave.

[B]

Whatever.

[A]

I gave two seats away.

[B]

Come on, Kelly. Let's go. And I'm just like, all right.

[A]

I don't sound like this, guys, but I think this is how I come off.

[C]

No, you definitely sound like that.

[B]

And so then I wasn't even there. I go in, I'm all excited. I'm so happy. And I'm like, you guys are in my seats? They're like, no, your friend gave us these seats. Fuck. And Naveen was like, all right.

[A]

Well, I'm so clear with that.

[B]

Naveen goes. Naveen goes. David said to sit next to them. So I go, okay. So I sit two seats closer to the screen. So now I'm excited. I'm like, okay, I'm even. I have even better seat now. Yeah, fine. Then two people come and take those seats. Well, we're in 16 and 17.

[A]

No, you were on the end. The last.

[B]

I'm on the end.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Well, those two guys should have been on the end because I watched the movie with a fucking cranked neck.

[A]

Like, oh, no, they were two inwards.

[B]

Yeah. Two more further out. And poor Naveen couldn't even see.

[A]

Hey. No good deed.

[B]

Yeah, no good deed. But it was nice. It was nice. She gave him the seats. But I just thought the movie was also. Am I crazy? But Do I not get the 70 millimeter thing?

[A]

I don't really get it.

[B]

Oh, like a short.

[C]

Yeah, yeah.

[B]

It's like a full movie.

[C]

No, no, no, no.

[A]

I wouldn't go see a full movie. That's only fun if you're like with your friends and you want to go see a throwaway movie. Obviously it's not like a. It's like a thing to go see

[B]

the Odyssey, but with all the boat scenes. They say people are going insane.

[A]

Oh, really?

[B]

Yeah, that people are like getting rocked around and screaming and laughing.

[C]

That should be kind of like.

[B]

I think it'd be kind of fun.

[A]

I fucking. No, I can't do that. I don't know.

[C]

God, you're just a killer of fun.

[A]

What? I have such a good time. I literally. I had such a great time watching that movie today. But yeah, it was, it was so good. I do highly, highly, highly recommend going to see the movie.

[B]

Oh, yeah, you gotta see it.

[C]

Even if you don't.

[B]

What's that?

[C]

Well, even if you don't care about like the war or gladiator esque things

[B]

and even if you haven't read the book.

[C]

Yeah, yeah. Even if you don't know what's going on.

[B]

So good. And what a weekend. I had a great day yesterday. I got to watch World Cup. Got to talk to your friend Tanya.

[A]

Oh, yeah.

[B]

First of all, I beat you in pool.

[A]

The World cup has just fucked me everywhere. You know, every bet I've made, I've lost.

[B]

I know, man. I don't know what's going on with you.

[A]

I've. I'VE made something happen.

[B]

Well, why would you choose Argentina? Like, Spain was favored.

[A]

I think I told him, no, no, I trust Argentina. Just because Argentina's just been fucking clawing at me. Every. Every bet I have, they're like, they fuck me. They're on the other.

[B]

The.

[A]

On the other end of it.

[B]

So you were betting against Argentina? Ups.

[A]

Yeah. So this time I'm like, I'm gonna join them.

[B]

Real fair weather, guy.

[C]

I'm super.

[A]

Yeah. And. And I'm so. I've lost every bet. I have made seven bets during the World Cup. Every single bet has gone the opposite way. Every bet. Even when I bet Argentina, I was like. I told my friends, I was like, guys, you guys got to put money on Spain. Yeah. Like, there's no chance they're not going to win because I just put money on Argentina. Yeah. I'm fucking awful at it.

[B]

I really fell in love with soccer this year. Really? Yeah. I've never watched it before, not in my life.

[A]

I can't get into it, man. Really?

[B]

I really, really found it. I was like, wow. I get it. I get it now. It's. It took me so many years, but the actual. It's just a different vibe. It's just on a different frequency than any other sport. You just gotta get to that frequency.

[A]

I think I like it in terms. Yeah. It's like having a beer and hanging out, watching. It's kind of the vibe. It is a different frequency. I just don't like betting and watching it, it's some of the most, like. It pisses me. Like basketball, when you're watching and you're betting on basketball, it's like, fuck, yeah. It's fast. It's moving. Let's go. Okay. Momentum. But like soccer, it's like nobody scores a goal for 80 minutes. Yeah. And then one person scores a goal, and then that means that the other team completely changes their whole fucking lineup. Got more offenders on the offensive, people on the field, and then they score a goal, and then everything unravels in the last 15 minutes of the game. Like, I hate that. I hate sitting there. 80 minutes just sweating.

[B]

Seem to be a very foul sport, too.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Everyone's like, overact.

[A]

Like, I think it's part of it, Right?

[B]

Drawing.

[A]

It's part of the game.

[B]

Cards and that part I don't like. And I really wanted to see penalty kicks, but we didn't.

[A]

I really wanted to see.

[B]

I'm so excited for that. I was like, oh, man, you sound

Now that we are a few vlogs in. The man is really the goat at vlogging. You're the only YouTuber who I still actively watch and I love this new style. I love this vlog style. Please continue. This is the best video in a while. Amazing pacing, great humor, plenty of personality, all while maintaining a professional angle. And then someone said, this is the best vlog of David's career.

[B]

Wow.

[A]

I know these aren't like crazy. I know this is the New York Times reporting on this, but like I do. I think comments are important. I was shocked.

[B]

That's great. Why are you shocked?

[A]

Well, I was shocked and then I realized like, oh right. Like I am like really dumb when it. Cause you know how I like kept making the videos more Like I like to make the edits cool. It was like when we were in the Philippines and I was making like the edits. Like I was trying to make the edits, like more fun and cool music and like pretty stuff. And people are like this how we like, we like when you're just hanging out, right? Like, I can't wrap my head around that because that's not creatively fun for me anymore because there's no edit there. It's just like, oh yeah, we're just hanging out. Like you really want to watch that shit. And I've been doing. It's my whole thing. It's like when you've been doing something for so long that you like become like jaded by it and you get really hipster. It's like when a fucking artist is making music is really pop, poppy. And then all of a sudden, they have, like, this weird slow down, like, jazz album.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I feel like that's where I was going with the videos in an opposite way. But then, like. And now I've, like, really fully realized, like, Ferris watched it. He's like, no, no, this is, like, exactly what every video should be like before we uploaded it. And I was like, really? And he's like, yes, this is exactly it. And I'm like, oh, I actually have absolutely no idea of how to make these videos interesting. So I was like, okay.

[B]

Did Natalie help with that, too?

[A]

No, Natalie helped. Oh, of course.

[B]

Come on.

[C]

You know, somebody. Sorry, not to get off track, but somebody said to me, you were saying. You were saying. You're speaking so nicely. Taylor, I think, like, wasn't here all day.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

And then he saw Taylor and he was just like, tay, how are you doing?

[A]

Ethan said that our editor.

[C]

Oh, yeah, our editor.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

And then. And then the editor, Ethan, turned to me and he was like, why doesn't he ever talk to you like that? And I said, you know what, Ethan? That's a great point.

[A]

And I argued with him.

[B]

You get a raise.

[A]

He was like, no, he didn't say that. But he was just saying, like, he's only like that with Taylor.

[B]

Hey, remember that note I gave you?

[A]

What note?

[B]

The note about the Microsoft scene.

[A]

Oh, my God. Yeah. Oh, my God. Okay, so if you watch the vlog. If you watch the vlog, there's this

[B]

moment where maybe don't tell the moment. See if they can pick it out. Maybe it's kind of fun.

[A]

We have to. What do you mean? We're just gonna keep him on edge for this?

[B]

Well, there was a moment in the vlog that I told David. I didn't like.

[A]

Well, no, you have to tell them the moment. The moment was where we were done with our Microsoft meeting. And I'm like, let's just. And I'm like, the meeting went well. Let's just say they're naming a computer after me. The dobrik. And Jason's like, We watched the whole vlog, and Jason's first note was like, I didn't like what you said after you had the Microsoft meeting. And I'm like, well, we just need something.

[B]

No, you were looking for things to cut. Yeah, but you're at 19 minutes. And I said, why don't you cut that?

[A]

I was like, we need. We need to, like, close that segment off. Like, we need to, like, put a bow on the Microsoft thing. And then he's like, I just think it was cringy. Like, cringy. I got so mad because. And I'm like, the whole vlog's fucking cringy, Jay. It's a business vlog. Like, it's. It's. We need. We need to have, like, a front, middle and an end. And he's like, I just think you're better than that. That's what he said. I was like, you.

[B]

I said. I said, yeah, you're funnier than that. They keep the things that. Where you're being really funny. I didn't find that joke to be.

[A]

But it. But I tried. I'm like, that's not a funny joke.

[B]

No.

[A]

Yeah, like, it's.

[B]

I know.

[A]

I don't think.

[B]

I know you don't think it's funny,

[A]

but I don't think I'm trying to sell anybody on the fact that it's a funny joke. That's why I was confused with your note, because I was like, yeah, it's not funny. I'm just, like, saying things to wrap it up. It's almost as if I was like, we're done with Microsoft. By, like, it's that.

[B]

I would have preferred that.

[A]

Yeah. Well, I don't know. You thought it was really crazy.

[B]

Maybe the remain name a computer after me. That part it was. And then. And I think I even said, like, people kept pressing me on it. And I was like, yeah, I just see it. And I just go,

[A]

and it's funny. Then Joe Vulpas came and watched it.

[B]

What do you say?

[A]

And we told him. We were like. We were like, what do you think of this part?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Because we wanted to go to love it. And he goes, that's actually one of my favorite parts. I'm not even kidding. I'm being completely. That now.

[B]

You know, it's bad.

[A]

We broke into. We all erupted into laughter. It was so funny. I was like, of course. That's really funny.

[B]

Yeah. Naveen broke it down to me. I was like, man, I felt really bad. I. I said that and I made him. I hurt his feelings.

[A]

You didn't hurt my feelings.

[B]

Okay. Okay.

[A]

That's not why I was mad.

[B]

Okay.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

I was mad because that Maybe if

[B]

I did a little bit.

[A]

No.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

When have. When have.

[C]

When he has no feeling.

[A]

What have you ever been like, this joke's not funny. And, like, I'm sad about it. Like, I want the video to do. I don't care if you're like, david, you're not funny at all.

[B]

Put yeah.

[A]

100% Zane in there. Like, I don't. I don't have any.

[B]

I know. Yeah, I know, but this. I know that.

[A]

But this video was. All of it was like a 6 out of 10 in humor. And it was just like. Yeah, it was a vlog.

[B]

Yeah. There are a lot of funny moments in the vlog. I thought you particularly were very funny.

[A]

Sorry. Give me how Naveen broke it down.

[B]

No. And then Naveen was like, yeah, you were really kind of mean and like, you shouldn't talk to him like that. He's like, what did she say? He's an Aries or whatever the fucking sign you are.

[A]

I don't know.

[B]

And I go. I go, you should see the way he talks to me like that. And she goes, yes, but he doesn't mean it. He's messing with you. All the things that he says, he doesn't mean any of those things. He's being. Trying to be funny. He's just getting under your go. And I had this whole realization. I was like. I was like, oh. I was like, right. I was like. I meant it. I hated that clip.

[A]

And he said, she's like, yeah, that's really funny. Yeah, no, it was really weird. It was like, I've never seen anything. Like, I've never seen you give a note like that. And I've never seen you.

[B]

I don't understand why you don't understand the note. The note is like, I'm so used to like, oh, it's just the funniest stuff. Just the funniest stuff. That's all.

[A]

But it was just to get us out of there.

[B]

Totally.

[A]

Like, there's a lot of moments there that weren't that funny.

[B]

I think you're changing the way you're doing the videos, which is good.

[A]

And making it more cringy.

[B]

Yeah. Everybody go watch the video and tell me if you think that moment was cringe or not. So leave a comment.

[A]

I'm so curious, please. If anybody is like, yeah, Jay, I was gonna say this.

[B]

Are you Joe Vulpis or are you Jason?

[A]

No, but yeah, people are like, I want more videos like this. So I don't know what that necessarily means.

[C]

Yeah, I don't really know either.

[B]

But doing you, doing your life, that's what people like. That's what they've been telling you for months.

[A]

I wonder so if he doesn't hear me. No, no, I hear you.

[B]

Yeah, they've been telling you that for months.

[A]

But I'm saying I wonder if also people liked it because I undersold it because I was like, this is the business vlog.

[C]

You didn't really.

[B]

Yeah, I did.

[A]

That's why I said it. So, like, people would not expect a really fun vlog.

[B]

And they're like.

[A]

And then they're pleasantly surprised. So I wonder if that had anything to do with it.

[C]

Maybe.

[A]

I don't know.

[C]

I also think it was just really fun. Like, we were moving, we were grooving, we were wheeling and dealing, you know.

[A]

Yeah, but that's still. That is still an expensive vlog to make. Like, I know the title is. I have. The title for a second was How I Made a Million Dollars in a Week. But, like, pretty sure I lost money that week with all the traveling.

[B]

How to Make a Million Dollars and parentheses and spend 1.5.

[A]

We're trying, like, different thumbnails. It's really. There's. I've talked about this before. There's like a software on YouTube now that allows you to test three different thumbnails and YouTube runs them against each other. And, like, I've been. People have been telling me to do thumbnail or to do titles. Like, one guy had an idea for a title, was like, step one, get really drunk with a Mexican family. Step two, give them $10,000 as the title of the video. Oh, that's really interesting.

[B]

Interesting. You'd be able to cook on that.

[A]

I don't know. We. We have this friend who's, like, really tapped in to, like, everyone's social medias. Like, he, like, studies Eric, Mr. Beast. Like, super tapped in. Like, like an expensive guy. If you were to hire him, like, knows all the back end stuff, and he's like, I had a friend who also, like, does this stuff. Look into all your analytics on the back end, and it doesn't match anything that's any other. Of any of these YouTubers. Because you have such a different relationship with your audience.

[C]

Right.

[A]

Than these other YouTubers have. Like, the titles will not work for you that are like an Arak or Mr. Beast. Those will never work for you. Yours are, like, way more parasocial. Like, people want to be there to see what you guys are doing, and that's it. They don't. They don't care about what the. Like, titling a million dollars spent on private jet, blah, blah, blah, blah. Like, won't work. We have seen that, which is really interesting.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Yeah. And then Ferris changed the thumbnail to How I Made Money, and it's this horrible shot.

[B]

How I make money.

[A]

Have you seen it? Yeah, it's just me holding Money.

[B]

Yep.

[A]

And like you can see blurry.

[B]

And it's kind of blurry.

[A]

You can see my eyes and my. But it's doing, it's like a 2, 3 out of 10 thumbnail for us right now.

[B]

Great.

[A]

Which is crazy. And it's a horrible thumbnail. And Ferris again is like, you guys gotta listen to me. And I was like, okay.

[B]

But I could see if that came up in my recommended, that would stick out to me as opposed to what I'm seeing on my recommended.

[A]

Really?

[B]

Yeah. Cause it actually came up for me on one of a new channel that I have and it stuck out.

[A]

I was like, oh, oh, that's interesting.

[B]

Yeah, it really stuck out.

[A]

I was gonna say, I bet this family $10,000 for the world Cup. Like that's the kind of stuff I would say, but I don't know. Also 10,000 dol. Dollars in YouTube world is like, it's like $5 now. Which is so unfortunate the way the people title these videos.

[B]

Can't you, can't you just drop that? You've come, you've earned that right.

[A]

What, to make up money? No, just like say a million dollars.

[B]

I give him a thing.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, no, no, no, I know, I know. I, I, yeah, I think I overthink the thumbnails. I think I overthink everything. I think I'm just honestly going to stop editing these videos. Like actually, I know I've been saying that I'm going to, but.

[B]

Great.

[A]

Dude, guess what comes in today.

[B]

What?

[A]

Sorry, that sounded like you edited really bad, but that was actually me switching gears.

[B]

Today's sponsor is.

[A]

Sorry, I fucked up today. What comes in my new painting from Elizabeth Langrider. Are you laughing at how many?

[B]

If I was in a coma for 10 years and the first thing I did was come out and listen to a Views episode. And I was like, I can't wait to hear of David on Views. And you said that I'd be like, oh, fuck her up.

[A]

Yeah, the test sucks. My bad, my bad, my bad. I'm getting a new painting.

[B]

Great.

[A]

I'm really excited for this.

[B]

Is it a birthday gift?

[A]

No, I bought it. Okay. So we went to Monaco. That vlog's not out yet, but Natalie posted a story, and the story is of F1. Like our, our view of F1. We had a beautiful view of the cars when they're driving by. And Elizabeth took it and she made a painting out of it out of Natalie's Instagram story.

[B]

Oh, wow. The view from the hotel room.

[A]

Yeah, really sick. So I Was like, I really, really want that. So I think it comes in today and we're getting ready for the birthday party. Once again, we're three days away from the party. No performer shout out Natalie.

[B]

It's always that way, though.

[C]

This is my favorite week of the year, guys. When David.

[A]

Can I just say, Can I just say what you. You're giving me shit. But every time we have an event, I'm like, at the end of it, I'm always like, that was our last one. Right? And then you go, no, for the next one. We're going to be well prepared. We're already sending out decks every time. Every time. I'm dead ass. A week before the sponsors are being locked in and have. Every time. They've been locked in. Every single time. It's worked. Yes.

[B]

Right.

[A]

It's shocking, but it is like literal hell week here. And I don't know where this.

[C]

I don't know why you have to make it like double hell week.

[A]

I don't know where the energy comes from the last week that everything gets done. Whereas like Natalie started like doing stuff for the birthday like seven months ago. But like it all actually comes together the final week. I have no idea.

[B]

Well, why is that, Nat?

[C]

I don't know. I mean even from my like when I started pitching it like six months ago, honestly, I got one like big brand that's like the biggest brand on the party.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

And the others are just like ongoing conversation. I don't know. It just like the week of.

[A]

We have some fun brands this, this year though.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

So like all the brands are already pre locked. The only thing that's like really hung I'm hung up on is the artist, which is the hardest part of.

[A]

The artists are so tough because the people we had originally locked in, I feel the pair. One guy couldn't do it, by the

[C]

way, for this one.

[B]

Nice.

[C]

I feel really good about it.

[A]

Oh, okay. The brands we have that are sponsoring is Cascades, Tequila, Snapchat.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Which is sick. Okay. That's a big deal. That's a whole social media platform. And Carl's Jr. Wow. Kind of lit.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Carl's Jr. I've been wanting like a big fast food restaurant.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

This is going to be kick ass.

[C]

And Celsius. They have a little Celsius and Celsius.

[A]

And of course Celsius. The goats. Yeah. And guess who's coming.

[B]

Your mom.

[A]

My mom is coming. My teacher, Mr. Killinger.

[B]

Oh, I know. I'm so excited to hear that.

[A]

How sick is that?

[B]

It's really cool. I have somebody to talk to. I like that.

[A]

I texted him and he was like, there's no way I could swing this. Blah, blah, blah. And then he texted me four days later and he's like, all right, I'm in.

[B]

Wow.

[A]

I was like, no way. He says, you only turn 30 once. I said, wow. He goes, and I don't get invited to many parties except for four year old birthday parties. Buddy. Looking forward to it.

[C]

That's going to be so fun.

[A]

That's like my favorite. It's like my favorite person that's like, responded to the invite. Monday AI agents took over my work

[B]

We got two cool emails if you want to hear them. Somebody wrote from Kenya.

[A]

Oh, sick.

[B]

And someone gave you a critique of your vlogs if you want to hear that. I don't know if you're ready to hear that.

[A]

Okay, give me the Kenya first.

[B]

Kenya? I sent it to you.

[A]

My name is Alvin. I'm from Nairobi, Kenya, and I'm most likely the number one listener of the pod here in Kenya. No, seriously, I'm so sure. I am. That's really funny. I've heard in the last few pods that David and the gang are coming to Kenya and I'd love to meet you guys if you're ever in Nairobi. Now, just to warn you guys, Kenyans are chronically online and do not like it when our country is misrepresented. There are a few controversies with some luxury hotels in the Masari Mara. So stay weary if you'll visit. Try as much as possible not to do what every famous white guy does and try. Come save the poor kids. You could do charity, of course, but be careful how you do it. Kenyans hate when only the poor sides of our country are showcased. And for the love of God, nobody says jambo or Hakuna matata.

[B]

That's like a really good email to prep you for Kenya.

[A]

Yeah, that's really, really good.

[B]

Anyways, did you already know those things, Nat?

[C]

I mean, I feel like.

[A]

Yes.

[C]

Free, straightforward.

[B]

You knew all those things for sure. Okay. It's just good to keep in mind.

[A]

But that's like, even when we visited South Africa.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

People are like, you know, we're like a regular country.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

And I'm. And even when you get there, you're kind of like, yeah, yeah, Like, I know, I know.

[B]

Like, you know that you're like world travel, but.

[A]

No, but that was one of the first places I went to.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I don't know. I guess. Yes. If you. If you live in the Midwest, you've never. You've never left. And you watch Blood Diamond.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And you watch these movies. Yeah. Maybe. It seems like there's. The places that aren't as developed are really. Not as of up, but, like, I don't know. I never. I never thought that. Even when we did our South Africa vlog, like, it was very much like. We definitely showed how incredible it is if you're fucking the wealthiest.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And if you're just coming to visit in all ways, I think that's very important.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

I don't know, but that is a good point for people listening that, like all these countries that you think Arnaz developed. Definitely. Yeah. Anyway, okay. Nobody says Hakuna Bata. That is actually a surprise. Anyways, I'm currently in university and seeing that David is doing a partnership with Microsoft, I'd love a laptop. Wink, in case you guys want to call me for the pod. I love Natalie. Okay.

[B]

Oh, yeah. Did you see that?

[A]

No computer for him.

[B]

He said, I love Natalie, and I'm sad when she's not on the podcast.

[A]

I love Natalie. I should appreciate her more. I hate when she's not in the pod. Say hi to John, Ilya, Alex, Julia, Naveen Taylor, and of course, David fucking Tobrik psa. I most likely send this until you guys come. That's really sweet. Should we call him?

How long have you been listening to the podcast? That's kind of crazy to have a listener from Kenya. Oh, my God, for like six. I think you stopped doing the podcast in like, way back in 2022. Oh, wow. So before. Before, before we even stopped. So like over five years. Yeah. Oh, my gosh, that's crazy. And are you were born and raised and you've always been in Kenya or you're from the States, back to Kenya? What's the vibe? No, no, no.

I'm born and raised in Kenya. Never been. Okay, I've been outside of Kenya, but born and raised in Kenya. Yeah. Holy shit. Wow. Wow. Well, we have your number now, so I don't know where we're going exactly in Kenya, but once we know. What.

[C]

You're on the podcast right now.

[A]

Oh, shit. I should have told you. You're on the podcast. Well, what do you mean? I thought he assumed that he's on the podcast.

[C]

I don't know. Just making sure.

[A]

Yeah, I assumed that. Well, listen, when we're going to come, I'm going to bring you a laptop from Microsoft, okay? That'll be my hello gift to you when I run into you. And if I don't see you, we'll send it over once we're there. But we'll bring you. We'll bring you a laptop from the States.

[A]

Okay, that's enough, Alvin. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Bye, Alvin. Thank you. Oh, wow.

[B]

He sounds amazing.

[A]

Yeah, he's really sweet.

[B]

So chill.

[A]

So chill.

[B]

Not American.

[A]

No, he's Kenyan for sure.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Love you, Natalie.

[B]

We're so, like, hyped up here. It's disgusting.

[A]

What do you mean?

[B]

I don't know.

[A]

We have so much energy.

[B]

Yeah, we're so like, oh, I gotta do this.

[A]

I think we woke him up.

[C]

I know.

[B]

I think so too.

[A]

We have so much energy. I'm sure he's got plenty of energy.

[B]

I Was gonna tell you that it was probably the middle of the night there, but then I really wanted him on the show.

[A]

What time is it in Kenya? Oh, dude, it's 3:00am oh, no.

[C]

Oh.

[A]

Oh, my God.

[C]

Oh, my. You're like. So he just woke up. He's like, well, was that right? Rude?

[A]

I mean, I think it's like, equal.

[B]

I definitely thought it. I definitely was like, this guy's asleep. But I didn't say it. Cause I was like, I was being greedy.

[A]

Yeah, you were being greedy.

[B]

I was like, I want this guy on the show. I want him to get a laptop.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

I wanted you to make a connection with him. And you know you did.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

So he's happy?

[A]

No. Yeah, he's fine. I think it's fine.

[C]

I don't think he's upset.

[B]

No, he's not upset. But we should have better fun.

[A]

He writes us another email. That was disgusting. That was fucked up. Natalie, you are no longer.

[C]

I no longer love you.

[A]

Sorry. I guess we should have checked the fucking time. Just assume. You know, Kenya, I feel like we're kind of aligned. Thought we were on the same time zone.

[B]

Nope. No, not at all. Hey, you've been to 11 in Miami, right?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Have I?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Well, I saw a TikTok the other day. Very interesting TikTok the guy's got. Guy gets on there, he goes, 11 Miami is incredible. He goes, if you're a guy, he said, you've got to go to eleven

[A]

Miami for ego boost.

[B]

Yes. You saw it?

[A]

Because I just know it. I live in it.

[B]

Cause he said, you're rejecting women at such a high rate, such beautiful women at such a high rate that this gives you incredible confidence. And I never really saw that.

[A]

It's. Wait, what do you mean? Universal?

[B]

Have you been a boost from telling somebody?

[A]

Have you been to 11? Yeah. It's like if you were a woman and you are on a construction site in the 1980s. Like, it is like, yeah, but reversed. Every girl there is whistling. Not whistling, but every girl there is like, cat calling, literally pulling at you.

[B]

But does it give you a confidence boost? Like, we all know that we're under the guise of these women are trying to make money.

[C]

I don't think it matters.

[A]

I think. I think, yes, it does get a confidence boost. I think it does get, like. I'm trying to think if, like, High School David went there.

[B]

Uh huh.

[A]

Like, what that would do for me.

[B]

Oh, yeah, Yeah.

[A]

I mean, I don't. I don't know how much it would boost My confidence, it would definitely have me think about moving there. So, guys, 11 is a strip club. 11 is a strip club in Miami. And it's. It has more strippers than it has. Not really. Then it has people there. It has so many strippers that it's like you're walking around and it's like one in three, four people is a stripper. And they're all trying to get you to get a lap dance, take you to private room, whatever. It is truly, truly Disney World for adults. It's fucking. If you like strip clubs also, if you don't like strip clubs, this is the strip club for you.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, that's true.

[A]

It's really, it's like, I don't know, Natalie.

[C]

It's not super strippery. There's one stripper pole in the middle and the rest is like just you're at your table. I mean, I am like the biggest 11.

[A]

You know, Natalie gets free tables there for life.

[B]

Yeah, we've talked about this.

[A]

Yeah, yeah. Pretty.

[B]

For life.

[A]

For life, for life.

[B]

How much is a table?

[C]

A couple thousand.

[A]

Couple thousand. And across the street now, Jay, they're building 11 apartments.

[C]

You know who's getting one?

[A]

You know, Fucking crazy that is.

[B]

I thought only Equinox was doing that.

[A]

Do you know how fucking dangerous that is to live across a strip, man?

[B]

You can't, you can't go live at 11 apartments. Nobody. That's a bad look for any guy. I don't know. I love the club so much, I bought a condo. Like what, what do you get with 11 apartments?

[C]

Access, underground tunnels straight to the club.

[A]

Straight to the club.

[B]

Is the doorman a girl with a big chest?

[A]

I'm sure you can have like, like, like private parties where like strippers come to your room and stuff. Like, it's probably pretty crazy.

[B]

Look it up, look it up.

[A]

They're not done yet.

[C]

They're not going to advertise that either. Probably. It's probably like a low key undercover thing.

[A]

No, it's going to be, it's Dave know about it.

[C]

No, I'm saying like the, the bonuses of strippers coming to your room. They're not going to be like, we also give you free strippers.

[B]

There must be some kind of perk that they offer massage or something. You call it 11 strippers.

[A]

Oh, yes, for sure. You can get massages.

[C]

Strippers on demand. Like that sort of. That's what you think.

[A]

It's probably like a massage. That is actually the best part of 11. Because I am not like a lap dance in public kind of guy. But getting a massage is the easiest to get at a strip club. Because when you're at a regular massage parlor and you're getting a massage, you feel kind of weird. Or at least I do. But when I'm at a strip club getting a massage, I feel like I'm being the most polite at the strip club and I actually like it. I'm like, oh, this is not what everyone else is doing. I'm taking this step down. So I do highly recommend getting your massages done at.

[C]

They are really incredible. Yeah.

[B]

Oh yeah. Happy endings for every. Every tenant.

[C]

They do not say that.

[A]

It's not fucking possible.

[B]

You get state of the art fitness center, yoga studio, meditation room, temperature control, plunge pools. And you get access to the 20,000 square foot, 11 floor day club, casino style sports lounge and 11 beach club.

[C]

Yeah. I think you just like don't have to wait in the lines and stuff.

[A]

But no, that place is gonna be. It's gonna be fucking insanity.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

I genuinely may move there.

[C]

I mean, I'm down.

[A]

That's why I hate going to Miami. I hate going. You know, one of the best thing that's happened to me in Miami was we were at 11, it was 3:00am I'm like, I gotta get the fuck out of here. Obviously, I can't leave. Cause my. Because 11's incredible.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And I got a call that there were like people outside, like trying to break into our house.

[B]

Yes.

[C]

I was like, in L. A.

[A]

In L. A. And I walked outside and I was like on the phone with Ilya, I was like, thank God you called. Thank God those people were outside the house. Because I was going to stay at 11 till 6 in the morning. That's what it takes to get me out. It's fucking a home invasion.

[B]

How was the Doomsday trailer? Didn't that come out today? I heard someone talking shit about it.

[A]

What the fuck? Yeah, it's okay. It's just. It's tough. Okay.

[B]

Yeah. Okay. Oh, oh, okay. Dave's gonna get real right now.

[A]

It's, it's, it's just a lot of. It's.

[B]

This was the tone of the guy that I saw talking shit about it. He was like, stuff.

[A]

It's, it's. Here's the thing. I think everyone's on the same page, okay? The people that create it, the people. Like, nothing is going to beat the original Avengers, okay? Nothing will beat the feeling of seeing Tony Stark, Black Widow, the Hulk, Thor, Hawkeye, doctor Strange, David Dobrik,

[B]

Tay, John Castro.

[A]

Have you seen those edits on TikTok that? It's like, see if you can. I put a photo of in between all these models. See if you can notice. So It'll be like 10 photos and it's a swipe and it'll be all like these super sexy models. And one photo will just be like a picture of a regular dude. I saw one today that was really funny. It was like, let me know if you could find Charles Leclair and this group of models. And you're swiping and it's like, it's just showing pictures, not swiping. It's a video and it shows a model, shows another model, shows another model. And then it goes 10, 9, 8. It's a 27 second. It's a 27 second countdown that's 10 seconds long. It's a 10 second countdown that's 27 seconds long just to show a picture of Charles Leclair. And then it goes back to the models. I thought it was really, really funny.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

So, okay, back to the Avengers thing. Nothing's ever gonna beat the original Avengers. So, like, I'm watching this trailer and it's a lot of the new characters.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And it's. And the originals are. The original. People are dead. So it's like, I'm a little worried, but I know everybody that works on these movies knows that. Everybody knows that Tony Stark and the original Avengers are fucking the goats. And I just feel like I haven't gotten to spend as much time with these new characters that I'm seeing in this new Avengers movie where I'm sinking my teeth into it as much as I was originally with the original Avengers.

[B]

Got it. Yeah, that's what the guy said. He's like, I don't care about these characters. It's not that he's like, he's like. And they're like keeping Dr. Doom kind of under wraps. And no one cares that much about Dr. Doom. That's what he said. But I think Dr. Doom sounds like a cool character.

[C]

Wait, really? I think the opposite. Dr. Doom sounds like so fucking lame.

[A]

His name's Victor Von Doom. This is a comic book now that we're talking about. This is comic book.

[B]

But I remember Dr. Doom in the comic books, and he was kind of cool looking.

[A]

His name's Dr. Doom and it's a comic book. Cool name that is like the apex predator, you know, to have a character named Dr. Doom, what I think is really goofy, but I'm sure this is like, to help sell tickets, was why they revealed Robert Downey as Dr. Doom.

[B]

Why haven't they.

[C]

Why didn't they do it in a film?

[A]

Why didn't they do it in a film? One, like, why didn't they do it at the. They did it at Comic Con where he just took his mask off.

[B]

Right.

[A]

Obviously, that was for a reason. Maybe there was. There could have been an outside threat that was going to leak him as it. You know, there could have been any. Any number of reasons why they had to do that.

[C]

Jeff Gone for that.

[A]

No, that's. I don't know. Maybe. Why didn't they do Movie bums me Out. And two, imagine how cool it would be if you're watching Doom and you have no idea it's Robert Downey the entire time. And then, like, that's the reveal in the theater.

[B]

And when does the movie come out?

[A]

December.

[B]

Like, Christmas.

[A]

December 18th. I'm so excited.

[B]

That's nice.

[A]

If I could be invited to any premiere, this is the one. This would be. And now that I'm vlogging, I'm so. And now that I'm vlogging, the way I'm vlogging, this would be, like, the perfect thing for me to go vlog. I'd be so excited. So excited to be there. Yeah.

[C]

Texting Marvel.

[A]

I would love to attend the premiere, but. Yeah, no, I am excited. Oh, sorry. This is what they said. The guys that made Infinity War and Endgame, the Russo brothers, are making this one. And the way they've been talking about in the cast has been talking about it is similar. Like, in Infinity War, they killed all the superheroes. They're taking another big swing at something just as crazy in this.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

And that doesn't mean at all that they're going to kill. That they're going to do the same. Half of the heroes are dead and then the next movie.

[B]

Right.

[A]

But, like, they're doing something that's bold again, and I think that's really exciting.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Yeah, yeah.

[A]

I like new stuff, and I don't know. I love the Russo brothers. And Robert Downey.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Would not come back just for a paycheck. I just don't believe that. I think that. I think what they did with Infinity War and End Game is so fucking incredible that I don't think they would touch this movie unless they had a really good idea for it.

[B]

Right.

[A]

And I think that's what. That's what they said. Like, we had a really good idea, and that's why we wanted to come back.

[B]

Wow. Nice. Fuck, yeah.

[A]

So that'll be exciting. But guys, listen, that's all the time we have for today's podcast. Let me know what you guys think about the new vlogs. Let me know what you guys want to see more of in the vlogs and just, just, just tell us. Thanks. We like reading your comments. Yeah, just let us know.

[B]

Go find that cringy moment in David's last video.

[A]
