Episode: Selling Our Sex Tape
Release Date: October 17, 2025

Episode Overview

In this intimate, hilarious, and quintessentially chaotic episode, David Dobrik and Jason Nash—joined by Natalie and Taylor—dive into the absurdities of their intertwined lives. They open up about personal and professional struggles, riff on pop culture moments, and (most famously this week) propose the theoretical selling of a "sex tape" as a viral OnlyFans stunt—complete with hilarious negotiations about price, profit-splitting, and audience demand.

Along the way, they share behind-the-scenes stories from YouTube’s golden age, dish out honest creative advice, and reflect on money, friendship, success, and what it would be like to raise rich kids in LA. The episode is packed with David’s signature blend of sharp wit, unfiltered banter, and moments of accidental vulnerability.
