The CboysTV crew discusses Ken's massive Kentucky Derby-themed housewarming party, an upcoming Vegas bachelor party, various vehicle projects and modifications, and responds to online criticism about their content direction. The episode features casual banter about cars, pranks, and behind-the-scenes shop updates.
Insights
- Large group events (20+ people) create logistical challenges for venue access and require strategic planning around gender ratios for club entry
- Content creators face constant criticism regardless of direction—negative comments drive engagement but don't reflect actual audience satisfaction
- Vehicle ownership satisfaction is psychological; a clean or newly serviced car creates perceived performance improvements even without mechanical changes
- Undercover police vehicles and unmarked enforcement create safety concerns for drivers who may not recognize legitimate traffic stops
- Expensive gifts can backfire if they don't align with recipient's lifestyle or aesthetic preferences, regardless of monetary value

When you're working on a prank, you're asking all these periphery questions, okay? You think so low of me, Ken. Ken's got to be like the only person in the world to get a marble statue of himself and then hate it. I just don't want it. We can move on. I just kind of got a M3. What? Big weekend coming up. Massive weekend. Potentially the largest. I did tell Gavin that you two could room together, Ken. Something tells me Ken's already got his rooms booked last year. Does Gavin have his own room? No, I got him sleeping in your bed. Nice. You won't even know he's there. Besides for every time that he moves around and he knocks something over because he doesn't know his own size. He just foils his arm around left and right. So, yeah, we go to Vegas this weekend for Ben's bachelor. My bachelor party. It's going to be a crazy weekend. I'm excited. CJ's had it in his planner book for weeks now. I think it's set up for an amazing time. Oh, it's going to be an amazing time. I'm so fired up thinking about it. Great time. We got a good crew coming. You know, all the homies. Pretty much everyone that you can think of that the listener or viewer has seen. Plus some more. It's a good crew. I think this is the longest run I've been on without making an appearance in Vegas. Mine too. I haven't been there in like a year and a half. It was the last. I was with you guys when we were traveling. Last March. Yeah, March. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Over a year. Cheap car challenge. Wow. So you guys have saved a lot of money not going. It's been good. Yeah, it's been good. haven't uh haven't wasted any money lost any money but yeah i'm excited we got a lot of good stuff planned i'm just excited to have all my like all of my friends together in one spot it's kind of crazy though isn't it like kind of like two worlds colliding oh it's like seven worlds colliding yeah we got like 20 people coming it's a big ass group it's a big crew it's kind of hard because like everywhere you go with 20 people it's it's very impractical yeah It makes it very unrealistic getting into, like, restaurants or really going places with 20 people. It's like a classroom. Yeah. It's like literally bringing an elementary class on a field trip. Yeah. Like, straight up. Yeah, we're going golfing. We have, like, 17 times. Someone's going to be done in the bar. Literally, yeah, just going off one. We're just closing up 18. Whatever. Like, the guy escorting you in or whatever, the bouncer. Okay, how many you guys got? Dude, it's going to keep coming. 20 guys in Vegas has to be the equivalent of like. You just don't get let in. Well, it's all about ratio. So it's like if you go to a club, for instance, with 20 guys, there's got to be like 40 chicks to 20 guys. Yeah. In the club for like 20 guys to get like let in. We're going to have a solid zero to 20. Yeah. Negative. Yeah. And we've kind of always dealt with that. Like everywhere we go, obviously we've got a big crew and never have any girls with us because our girlfriends rarely travel with us because we're usually traveling for videos. So most of the time it's kind of hard to get in places. And then when our girls are with us, it's like you're fast-tracked into these places. It's like, oh, so this is what it's like to be a woman. That's why I think I had so much fun in Vegas the last two times that I went because there was girls there. So they were like, you guys want a table? You want to come into my house? With a big door? Give better attention. Oh, the door. The door. Yeah, dude, we should run this door. The door party back. Yeah. Yeah, I'll see if Nigel's DJing. He'll probably let us. Yeah, he makes some calls for us. Ev, the Cheeto wrap is coming off. It is. It's actually coming off quite nice, all things considered. What was the breaking point? Because you could have taken it off, you know, we said, like, what, a month or something like that, that you were going to keep it, and then after that you were like, ah, I think I'm going to take it off. Yeah, I mean, I just tried to, you know, you guys went through a lot of work to get it wrapped, so I just wanted to, you know. appreciate it make it worth it yeah that is nice of you i was glad i'm glad that you did that you know some people on this podcast don't look at it quite the same of like the efforts that we go through for these gifts you know having having the enjoyment and just pretending at least that you liked it i appreciate that you know it's you know it's not everyone on this podcast but a couple people on this podcast some guys can't even make it 45 minutes without literally having a meltdown so i felt like i did pretty good yeah but uh and we actually never told you that you had to keep it You could have ripped it off the day of, and we would have been like, well, you didn't want to roll around with a Cheeto wrap, but I think you were just, quite frankly, too lazy to do it. It is a lot of work. Up until this point, it's not lazy. It's because they had to cut a bunch of the red wrap off underneath it, so it's still super fucked. What do you think, if you were going to get it rewrapped, is there a specific color? Would you want to do red again, or is there a different color in mind? I mean, you could do any color. It would be the same color red or slightly adjusted to, like, the Lambo. Oh, you really came around to that red, huh? I never didn't like the red. Oh, I thought it started out with, I don't even like red. You guys are the ones that like red. Okay, if I would have, like, went to a dealership, I probably would have bought a white, like, I like a white truck. I could wrap it white. No, because Dalton has a white wrap. You could do a trade. I don't want to look like that. You could trade with Dalton. But no, honestly, like, when I go home for the weekends, I literally, the truck stays in my driveway. I've even parked it in my backyard a few times. Really? I'm not trying to blow my spot up, but, like, I literally don't drive it anywhere. Around here is not so bad because there's not that many people in town. But back home, I literally, like, refuse it to take it to Duluth or take it out. It's too distinct. What exactly are you concerned about or worried about? Every time, like, if I go to dinner, I come out and it's a full fan meetup. Not that I don't like to meet fans. sometimes if I'm just having dinner with my girlfriend, it's just nice to get in the car and go home and not have my spot blown up all the time. I can see the issue. I do appreciate all the fans, and I'm not mad at anyone that came up and checked it out. But it's like I go take a dump at the Casey's gas station on my drive out, trying to be in a hurry on a Monday morning, and five cars blocking me in. I do understand. I see the issues. But, yeah, no, it was literally this morning, went to the Cormorant store just had a couple kids just admiring it they were cool whatever and I was driving to the farm to do a couple things I pull in I look at it I'm like today is the day got right back in pulled over here and just sort of ripping it off I know you're planning on getting it rewrapped I'll probably get ganged up on for this what is wrong with silver i'm like dude just peel the red wrap is toasted well part of the reason is why i just don't really like silver but it's not the worst i kind of like that the wrap protects it like that silver is actually in really nice shape it was like wrapped at what like 70 000 miles yeah it's in yeah you're worried about your you're worried about your paint but you drove that thing literally into the ground no but i feel like the wrap like the paint is so immense underneath it it's like someday if i actually do want to sell it you rip it off and it looks really nice like right now i drive it and it's like getting scratched by tree branches and stuff it like doesn't matter protecting the wrap is that's true if you're okay with like you know like uh how it has like the kind of line in the court like all the like grooves and lines have the wrap blown out of it but you do have a point yeah you could pat but i guess what i'm saying is like if you're okay with that that looking like shit it is still better off with the wrap yeah i mean i am gonna patch it in it's really just like The hood and the roof really got faded where the patches don't work that good, but on the doors and everything. I stick little Band-Aids all over it, and it works. You're not going to rewrap it. I don't know. Anyone out there want to wrap my truck for free? That'd be safe. I'm sure there's someone out there. I just don't have, like, five or ten grand to, like, throw at the wrap. The red is still acceptable. From 20 feet away, it still looks fine. so it's like i just other things i would buy before uh dropping a bag on i get that no for i actually get that i feel like it's like pretty hard to justify 10 grand is so much money to be spending on a wrap yeah just to change the color yeah dude i know whenever it gets into that five figure point five figures yeah sorry we're back to the figures no whenever it does i genuinely you're like dude i could like repaint the car for this you know if it wasn't like a high-end car but speaking of blowing up your spot i have like i put some concrete in front of my house and i was like i'm gonna park the viper in front of it this weekend it was super nice oh it was not a good idea dude i had like people that weren't subscribers like stopping which is like like it's fine and then i had subscribers stopping and sydney's like you gotta move that thing but i was kind of like i was like letting my ego get to me and i was like i kind of like it and then my spot got blown Like, if people didn't really know where I live, now they do because, like, people would drive by just to see it. And then the neighbor came over and was talking to me for a while, and he's like, this is just a random story. But he's like, yeah, one of my buddies had a Viper. He drove that, you know, they got real wide tires on them, don't they? He drove it in the rain and crashed it. Classic. And I was like, yeah, yeah. Don't tell me that. Yeah, yeah. This story is old as time on a Viper. It gets better or worse. I'm like, did he total it? He goes, yeah, he died. Oh! Yeah. Jeez. And then I go, oh, shit. He goes, yeah, I think he hit a guardrail and got pretty much decapitated. Holy shit, that's horrible. Wow. Yeah. It's in your front yard. Yeah, I know. Next year, I'm like, noted. And then I was just about to get in it and leave. So be careful. Yeah. You really do got to be careful in those things. It is, actually. Even with the wang and all the downforce. I'd like to imagine I was in an older generation. Yeah, for sure. The Widowmakers. Kind of back to the 10 grand on a wrap. It was a pretty sad day. I sold my dirt bike. I no longer own a dirt bike. Whoa. So, like, certainly before I could justify putting a sticker on my truck, I need to acquire a dirt bike. And the people are wondering, what would a guy like you get? Dude, I don't know. If Roxanne secures the bag here. Then a Suzuki, yeah. You're going Suzuki? I don't know. I kind of want one. Kickstart Kenny is going to secure it. Okay, so I suppose this podcast will have already gone out, But right now, Hunter Lawrence and Kickstart Kenny are one point away going into Salt Lake City. Final round of Supercross. This is pretty Saturday. It's going to be insane. Whoever wins, wins. That's best. Because Webb is like 30-something points back, which I don't. So Evan and I have been rooting for Kenny since the start of the season. But then Hunter. Years. For years. He's an OG. Yeah. Yeah, he deserves that. And then Hunter Lawrence had never won a race up until this year because his brother is fast and his brother is out this year. and now Hunter won his first race earlier this year and he's just been rolling. It's going to be crazy. I wonder if there's a way we could watch that. You know how they have those big TVs? We got to. We got to. Yeah, that'd be fun. Let's find that. We just got to go to a sports book. Where the bookies are. That's what I was saying. Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Sports book. That'd be fun. Dude, we got to do that. And then you could probably bet on it. Certainly. And Wilder playing this weekend, too. That'd be fun, too. Yeah, I've been watching a lot of actual playoff hockey. They're in the playoffs. That's cool. which is great, but they're against the Avalanche right now, and I don't think they're going to win. The Avalanche is a good team. They are really good, and Dallas was hurt, so that's what the wild haters are saying. Yeah, you heard it here. I was genuinely curious. I'm like, what is the wild chances? And CJ, as a Minnesota wild fan, says the Avalanche might. I think the Avalanche are going to take it. If I was going to put my money on it, I'd put it on the Avalanche. They played last night again? Yeah, they lost. What can you bet on in Supercross? We were just watching the Kentucky Derby. and it was actually... Dude, I'm in on horse racing now. We've got to talk about... I get why people blow all their life savings on horse racing. I just wish there was more races. I know, yeah. Yeah, dude, I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe it either. Two minutes. You should have seen it, though. I was curious about that. There was races all day. Just nobody watched it until... I watched an actual prelims. Well, anyways, I thought it was even shorter than it already was. So I would go to Ken's. That's what she said. We showed up to Ken's, and we're sitting there, and you basically got, like, a random horse if you put $20 in the thing. I got three horses, and all three that I draw, they're shown on the screen. Like, literally the worst odds, you know, but essentially I had the same amount of money as everyone else. I was like, well, I got screwed. I'm not going to win anything. The race happens. It's basically like the straightaway, and they're at the end of the straightaway, and it pops up on the screen. It shows my horse is in the lead, and I just jump up. I'm like, yeah. I'm cheering. and then I didn't realize they go around in a circle. I thought it was a drag race. You thought it was like 100 yards. So legitimately, everyone just started laughing at me. I wasn't embarrassed really, but it should have been an embarrassing moment. It was funny though. Ben had it on video actually. Yeah, I did. I can pop it up here. But it started with, like CJ said, everyone draws their horse out of the hat. And before the race even started, there was like this whole big debacle that went down before they got into like the chutes. and my freaking horse that I drew flipped over backwards before going into the chute and hurt itself. He kicked him off. He just bucked off the jockey. That horse was jacked up, right? Yeah, he was fired up. He would have won that shit too if he wouldn't have just blown his load before the freaking chute. Story as old as time. And then I was like, do I get to redraw? And they were like, nope, sorry. I was like, what the fuck? This is insane. I'm bad at gambling. Bad at gambling. but at least usually I have a horse in the fucking race. This time I didn't even have a horse in the race. How crazy is that? I was like, I'm so unlucky. Essentially betting on a team that just didn't play. Yeah. We almost got to back up a bit. We do. We filmed it. It was in last week's video. We showed up to Ken's basically first house party, at least first house party that we heard of. Through the grapevine. Themed the Kentucky Derby. Yeah, so that's why everyone was dressed up. I would say we more trespassed. So we showed up. Okay, continue. I'll let you do your story. We showed up. Ken's there with all his friends. His friends, not his work friends. We're like his work friends. Yeah. So we walk in. We're like, what the hell is going on? Because we didn't know there was a dress code. You know, realized, okay, everyone's dressed up for the Kentucky Derby. And, yeah, basically got to hang with Ken and his crew. His bachelor pad. Congrats on the house pad with Ken. Thank you. It was actually a scope job is what it seemed like. A scope job? Well, that was more of a... You guys were scoping the place out. Well, we would have liked to show up to the party regardless. Yeah, so anyways, we show up to this party. That's more what it would turn into. An invite would have been nice, but yeah, sure. I did check the camera situations when I was at that party. I walked around the outside, looked at where all those cameras are, so I had no... That is pretty funny. Ryan had photographs. I did the same thing. It was actually that I was just standing looking at it. I go, damn. Like, I've been to a lot of nice houses, you know, that are friends of friends or whatever. But I go, damn, dude, like, this is my boy's house. I was standing there looking at it. I took a picture of it because it looked good. Happened to come in handy later when we were scoping out where the security cameras were. So, yeah, basically, the reason we scoped out where the security cameras were is because, obviously, we had this housewarming gift. We ordered it, like, a year ago. And you guys saw it on the video. Ken, what did you think of it? You shouldn't have. I mean, I just feel bad because I know Mac had to design that thing, and he had to design the package of that thing. We just sent him the 3D rendering that we took out of your body when you were sleeping. Oh, that's even creepier. That's the best part. Someone's like, oh, wow, it looks just like him. CJ goes, yeah, we 3D scanned his body. So you didn't want it out front of your house, though, huh? God, no, I didn't want a marble statue with twig and berries just proudly displayed. I would not say berries. Would you have rather had your truck wrapped like a Cheeto? That's a good point. That's a great question. Which one would you take? I'd be honored to have that statue, and I would proudly show that off. I'm actually going to take the statue. I want the statue at my house. CJ did shake on it in the video that he would be taking the statue. Yeah, I'll deliver it to you. It's still strapped up and everything. Put it in the rocks somewhere where the garden is. Just don't break any sprinklers. Good point. If I Google most famous statue of a man, it appears to be the statue of David. His dick and balls are out. Small balls, though. Yeah, he's got small balls. You've got to beat on the nuts, at least. And not a big shaft. Honestly, now the anglage and some of the details that I know me and Mike especially were confused about, after seeing these statues, it honestly looks like that. Bro, you're doing great compared to this guy. He looks like that. He's got a fucking button. He's literally got a button. They got him inverted. He's fully inverted. Inverted. It was cold out when they did a scan. Yeah, it looks like he almost looked at this statue. What is it called? The Statue of David. Statue of David, and then made it look like Kent. Made it a Kent. They just made it a Kent. Yeah. I didn't realize the pose. Yeah, the pose. That's why he's doing that. So I was, as you guys are doing this, you cover up my cameras, and I was tweaking because some comments Ben was making on Saturday, and just the general questions he was asking Could you run us by a couple of those? Because I didn't hear them. He's like, oh, that's a nice bed you got here, which typically means if they ask a question ahead of time of, oh, how much does that cost? Where did you get it from? How long did it take to get? Usually that means they're going to fuck with it. So I was like, oh, God, I'm going to come upstairs. Where was your brain going with what we were going to do with your bed? Well, I was just assuming. Oh, you were asking questions about my art as well. Ken, those were genuine questions. Isn't art supposed to be a conversation piece? He obviously appreciates the art. Look what our gift was. I know your process when you're working on a prank. You're asking all these periphery questions. You think so low of me, Ken. Well, I just know your process. He does. When we were at his house, he was following us around the entire time. If Ben and I went upstairs, he'd just very shortly be up there. What are you doing? What are you doing? I'm just going to the bathroom. What are you doing in here? I just washed my hands. Did anyone use the porcelain? I've heard a lot of stuff. I did. I said it was one of the nicest bathrooms he's ever seen. It was great. I thought you said it was too shallow. I will say your toilet was a little shallow for a guy. It washes your ass, so it's fine. Ooh. I meant more so like shallow in the front. Yeah, because it's got the bidet on it. No, I know. So it's shorter. Oh, you have to plug it. Your wiener could just hang out the front. Are you saying you have to plug it like a cork? Like you need a tight seal? Oh. No, no. Because the opening gets a little shriek. Yeah, if you get a long bowl, you're going to have overspray. Yeah, you're going to have overspray. Yeah, I don't know. You definitely really got to, like, you just got to really kind of tuck it in. You know what I'm saying? But anyways, yeah, I will say, though, Ken, you sure know how to throw one hell of a party. Dude, it was insane. That was an insane party. I heard that you were down. I'm glad you guys had fun. I heard that you were smoking cigarettes inside, Ken. We did smoke cigarettes. You smoked cigarettes inside, Ken. Ken, I thought you weren't allowed. I thought we weren't allowed to smoke cigarettes inside of anything. Yeah, the fish house. It's on video. I lit the cigarette, and then Gavin, I hand it to Gavin. Gavin starts smoking it, and then somebody runs up to him and rips it out of his mouth and runs it outside. Thanks for clarifying. But you lit the cigarette. I did light the cigarette. On the stove, which promo. That is so trap house. So trap house. Like, cigarettes inside. Ken, you know, the stove light just is, I mean, that's, yeah. It's hard to take you serious when you're making all these requests of us to respect your house when you're smoking cigarettes inside, Ken. Well, you've got to break it in, and then it's, then you're done with it. Ken, how are you feeling the next day? Yeah, not too bad. I actually woke up. I went to bed early, so that was. Yeah, you were definitely. You weren't sore after falling down the stairs? I was a little sore. You fell down the stairs? I got no handrail yet because it's... I noticed. I can't believe you had no handrail. That is a serious liability. You're just going to pop up a picture. I turned it in. There were steps, and I just slipped and fell down them. He did. He went down. He went down like a ton of bricks. Holy cow. They are slippery steps. If there's one word that I would describe Ken with at his party, and it's bundled. He was bundled. Bundled. Interesting. Okay, and then define bundled for me. The only way I can really show it is just this picture, I'd say. Oh, my gosh. His eyes were going two different ways. He looked in the pocket right now. He looked in the pocket. But he was bundled. He was in a good mood, though. He did start going on a big rant about how you hated plastic hangers, though, to everyone. What? Is that too? Sure. Ladies, their legs swung across. We're all smoking cigarettes at Ken's. Look at it. Bundled, dude. Bundled. Interesting word, CJ. Bundled. I kind of like it. It was just like a shell of a human being. It's like you're so piled up that you end up in a little bundle wherever you are. Bundled, dude. Like he was melted into that couch. So, CJ, the next day, you know, we went to brunch and I see your fiancé's mom. Okay. And what did she say? Ken, I heard you were bundled. She said, oh, I'm picking up some food for CJ and Alex. They're not feeling so hot today. Really? She was saying, we've got to have a conversation about this wedding because she doesn't want to see the Gavin intermission. What? She was not thrilled about the idea of... Do I get anything I want out of this wedding? No, I'm just kidding. It went so far that it had to go up to the higher-ups of the... The food chain? Of the parents? She said, we've got to sit everyone down and have a conversation about it. Because if we're doing this, she wants it big. Yeah, that's probably what she means. She wants it insane. She's trying to not just have Gavin do it. She wants Dr. David there, too. Holy shit. A full-on exhibition. And this needs to be on the itinerary. Ken, it seems like you handled the party all right. Were your speakers blown? Oh, yeah, we blew. Oh, just one of them. You blew them, Ken. Yeah, I know. Because Alondra was on music. I'm sitting there. We're outside, and it's so fucking loud. Outside, you can't talk, and the speakers are inside. What? Bro, it was so loud. You blew your speakers, Ken? This was the guy when the neighbors came over. They were like, where's Ken? He was sitting like this. Just one of them blew. Just one of them blew. So everyone was telling me to tell Alondra to turn the music down, And then every time you turn it down, you went louder. And then you come over and crank it up. You were in the settings cranking the woofers. Oh, yeah. I mean, it was lit, dude. There was no arguing about that. It had the people moving. Ken, you were, like, flexing on me, too. Really? Like you were flexing on like well Ryan me Like you came up to me and you were like try and beat this for your house and you like pointed at the speakers and i like look up and then i just go oh i got three more than you and you go what but i was just lying it was funny it's fun definitely fun having loud speakers in the house it was it was fun as fuck so what's it look like now like when you wake up the next morning and and you're walking around your new house that smells like cigarettes, and you go, oh, I just need to listen to something nice just to soothe it. And you turn it on, it's... I just put a different zone on. It's just one speaker. It was all good. Were you reflecting with regrets? I was like, oh, why did I do that? But yeah. Do you think this will be like what your house will be like all the time? God, no. That's a one-time party. It's at Ryan's house next to your show. One party a week? Like, that's a Saturday night. No, no, no. It's a once a year. Kentucky Derby is only a one-time-a-year thing. Well, obviously. It actually rotates hosts as well. Ryan, you're on duty for next year. Yeah, they already made a fucking invite. I heard it was like, oh, who's having the party next year? And then it was like, I think Ryan. Ryan's like, I'll throw it. I'll throw it so I can get invited this year. All my boys are going to be invited. But no, it was on one of the guests or one of the planners, more like, of Ken's party. Yeah, his committee, his party planning committee. Because they did everything for you. It was lit. Ken was like the great Gatsby, dude. Well, he just was at his house, and then all the ladies brought food over and all that. I get the mom thing now. The dick could carry you. Actually, it was the laundry that wanted to do it. Yeah, no, she does want to throw the party. And I'm pretty excited. I'm stoked. I'm going to have all you guys there, dude. We'll burn the place down. You know what you should do? You should invite all of us but Ken. Oh, I don't know. I wasn't sending out the invites. Ken's at home. I sent the invites out a year ago. Ken, you can't just blame the invites on the mail system. Did you not get the invite to Ryan's party? Well, it's a year away. I haven't even sent the invites. Invites got sent out yesterday. I missed it. Shit, I guess I didn't make that one either. Don't worry, boys. If I'm in charge, you're getting invited. Ken, we'll see how your other parties are this year and if we get invited. If you start showing some appreciation towards your gifts. Yeah, so back to the gifts. Sorry. Yeah, none of those people got you a marble statue hand chiseled. Yeah, but having a statue displaying its twig and berries in my front yard in a neighborhood is not exactly the kind of vibe I'm trying to go for in my house. Again, it's art. And you could have clothed it. And you could have clothed it. I know you're a rational thinker sometimes, Ken. You could have clothed it. Yeah, trying to throw some Velcro underwear on there. What if you got something better than Velcro underwear? You're not thinking very critically. Yeah, but I just don't want, that's not what I want. I don't want that. You could have themed the outfit. It's kind of like one of those gifts somebody gives you and you're like, cool, I don't really give it. Okay, you can't be rude. What would be a gift that you'd want to receive? That's a good question. Genuine, like what is something that you would be happy if we got for you? I don't know. So hard to please. You'll figure it out eventually. I guess we just got to keep trying, keep shooting from the hip and hopefully we get there. But kind of like when you ask your girlfriend where you want to go to dinner and then you take her somewhere. It's never, you know. Quite the right spot. Yeah. But she won't give you input. I was going to say, like, it's close, but it's like having just a dick and balls in my front yard is an absolute no. It was pretty small. To every party, because you guys all wear fancy outfits, you could have had different outfits for your statue. Think about it. It would have been great. Everyone would have loved it. Yeah, you also could have put it inside, too. We did give you that option. Yeah. Could have helped you move it to your backpack. Yeah, we said, we'll help you move this. Yeah, I just moved it out because I didn't want that. How legendary is it? You walk into somebody's house and they have a giant marble statue of themselves dressed up. Take it a step further. How legendary is it? You show up to my house and I have a giant hand-chiseled naked statue of Ken in my rock garden. So you want the naked statue at CJ's house where you don't have any control over what it's wearing? Well, I said I just don't want it in my house. If you want it at your house, go ahead. That's great. Yeah, so it's going to CJ's. We can't just not do anything with it. The thing costs so much. The goddamn money. We weren't going to not do anything with it. Took a year. I'm a little jealous. I was going to your house. It's sick. Oh, we could maybe do like a parade of homes. You guys, no, no, no. It's going to my house. You guys were all like, oh, you're taking to your house? And then I started saying like, yeah, of course I am. It's going to be so sick. Now everyone's like, I want it in my house. Except for Ken, of course. I like that idea, parade of homes. Parade of homes. CJ locked it down until September 4th, Labor Day. I'll run it until September 4th, then. That's fine. At least for the summer. Then when everyone comes over, they see it. Yeah. Well, I'll tell you some things that you could get me, Ken, that I would be happy about. What's that? You could buy my dinner. You could get me a case of beer. You could buy me a bottled water. I'd be happy about all of those. I'd be stoked with the same things. Yeah. You know what? Pretty easy, please. A gift card to Buffalo Wild Wings. That's a title and thumbnail. Ken's YouTube channel. I buy CJ a gift card. I'd still be happy, Ken. Stoked. Yeah, and I'd be just stoked with your presence at my party. Wait, presents or presents? Presents, like physical. Gifts? Being there. Being. Yeah, like just, you know, having you around would be a gift for me so you could come to my party that I'll invite you to, unlike you not inviting us. You guys were invited to the party. They were just... The invitation was just... The invitation is lost in the mail. Wrong address. I certainly never got an invitation. You definitely weren't invited. I'm like 100% didn't. It was a hairy situation. I did lock down an invite. I wasn't a year before. Mike was invited, but he didn't go. The rest of us were. Yeah. No, but like probably two months before it happened from one of your friends, I got an invite, and I thought she was inviting us to a party at her house, but it was actually with your address, and then I put two of them together, and then Sidney's like, I don't think we got the invite and i'm not about going to parties that we're not invited to it's on the party of the century that is the number one rule i guess a good point that's why you wear a mustache if you do go is that what you did yes ken didn't know i was there for 25 minutes that's pretty impressive when ben took off his mustache ken was like whoa ben get out that's what he said he was way more fine with a random stranger than you I don't know who this Eduardo guy is, but he seems pretty chill. Ken's having his cameras, AI, write an algorithm to facial recognize just then. Call the cops immediately. Yeah, immediately. Party at my house next year is going to be crazy. We might even burn the place down. We decided we're going to do either, oh, burn it down? No, he said define we. I said, what do you mean we? Today's podcast is brought to you by Square.

Yeah, a bottle might make a... Ken's in there. Whoa, whoa, buddy. We're not that stupid. I'm not falling for that. First of all, I was smart, and I bought a house in the same neighborhood as Ben, so he'll be up to no shenanigans because he doesn't want to drive property values down. Oh, smart. Keep your enemies close and your friends even closer. Can you imagine throwing one party so hard that it drove your property value down? Holy shit. Obviously, that's a physical party. That's some rapper type shit. Like the rapper buys a house in a nice neighborhood, or like Jake Paul when he used to throw the big parties in his neighborhood, and then the police and the news would come. I can see it. I heard this quote the other day, and I kind of want to hear specifically one of your thoughts on where it came from. I don't know if you made it up or what, but the quote is, you'd cry if your ice cream was cold. And I was like, that shit goes hard. And I'm wondering where that was. I saw it on TikTok, a screenshot of it, and it just had music in the background. It was like CJ dropping bars, and it must have been a comment that was screenshotted. yeah well uh i heard that from the one and only who else but grandpa ron he said that since i was a little kid but uh no dude some of these kids on tiktok will just like have like a video of their dirt bike and be like c-boys falling off when i'm like brother first off look at the fucking analytics we're not falling off but second off they're just saying it because then it gets like all these comments and all that like and people just love being negative but anyways i commented you'd cry if your ice cream was cold because he was saying how he didn't like the last vid and then literally he responds um gee like i i was just saying that to try and get famous and shit like that no way i'm dead serious and then like you know then a bunch of people started like basically talking crap to him in the comments but he still has it up support always wins as opposed the fake hate. Yeah. It does remind me of when you asked the guy to take the TikTok down of the 4-7 when we were picking that up. Whoever picked up... Cheeto. When we asked him to take it down and he said he would, but it had so many views that he couldn't bring himself to do it. Which one was that? We bought the fake truck. 4-7 Glenn. This is exactly what he said. Yo, CJ, sorry for the hate. Just trying to get popular. And then the next kid responds to that kid. He goes, damn, bro, you're fake as fuck. Switched up fast. That's funny. Oh, and then this other kid said, guess who is going to be on the podcast this week, lol, which is ironic. I wasn't talking about it, but now he is. I just saw the quote. I actually saw another TikTok of the quote, and I was like, damn, that's a bar. And then it was like, people folded under pressure. Don't switch up now. Anything for clout. Yeah, he's based, OMG, now you're apologizing. Like, there's kind of, like, going after him. I think the thing about that, though, is I kind of just look at it like we have such a big audience, and it's hard to please all of them week after week when we're doing it at the level that we are because at the end of the day, we're making content that we think is good. And if it wasn't, we would be the first people to say that, but that's probably not the case. And they're the same people that are like, y'all are running out of ideas. when we do 100 people versus bulldozer a truck when that's just not the case that's a good ass idea that's just like the truth of it like that's just a good idea we have videos doing we have thousands of ideas we're not running out of ideas anytime soon i think they just like just having something negative to say like honestly well it's the same people that are just like you guys need to ride dirt bikes go back to like riding dirt bikes and vlogging and then as soon as we did that they'd be like wow this content's getting a little stale all you do is ride dirt bikes and vlog they'd be like wow they can't come up with any new ideas it's like yeah you're just not gonna win so that's why i said you'd cry if your ice cream was cold because they're gonna cry no matter what people like that but anyone posting a negative comment that's just gets way more traction and views also like oh i know yeah no exactly and that's the thing is when they do that then it's like it fires up the comments or whatever and i swear just it's way easier to be negative than positive and uh you'll see that with a lot of people and it's normally people that aren't doing anything yeah i mean i think it's always always people that aren't doing anything but and for the guys who want some dirt biking i i see i see i see the word dirt biking on this board quite a few times literally coming up it's coming this week it's just fucking 32 degrees out right now is we got to get the track dialed this week yeah but honestly whatever yeah i don't i really don't give a shit we're gonna make the videos we want to make yeah which is kind of the truth of the matter like people that you think you can make a better video than us you should start making them because i think we need more good youtubers in the space honestly it'll bring more people onto youtube it's only going to help us and uh our videos are good suggests i'd love it if you guys think that you can make better videos than us you should do it like absolutely do it it'll change your life for sure you'll have a marble statue outside of your house yeah that you'll hate and then give it back to whoever gave it to you. That might be an anomaly. Ken is such an anomaly for that. Dude, Ken, you really are on just such an island of your own here. Like, nobody listening to this podcast can relate to you. Like, not a single person listening right now is just like, that exact same thing happened to me, Ken. I know how you feel. You've got to be, like, the only person in the world to get a marble statue of himself and then hate it and be like, get it out of here. And just don't want it. We can move on. It'd be like a, you remember that show Sweet 16? Yeah. They're like throwing this massive party and then it's like, all right, you got to come out and see your new car. And they're like, I didn't want the Audi Ari. I wanted a Lamborghini Huracan. It wasn't red. I said it had pink. I wanted pink. The whole night's ruined. That was a crazy show. That was a crazy show. Crazy shows in those days. It's kind of crazy to think that like producers were able to like coerce the talent or, you you know, whoever they were filming, like, into doing the things that they did when, like, it's such a bad look on them. I think they just did it, some of these, you know. Obviously, some of them were scripting. That is straight-up reality TV. You're just this rich kid. Your parents are going to throw you this exuberant party, and you're like, oh, sweet, and I get to be on TV now, too, you know? Like, absolutely. True. But I never was really a birthday guy. Really? Stay the same age. Just wasn't, yeah. I wasn't a birthday guy I never really had many birthdays Like parties Okay Sure, Siege I did Like, you know, when you were little You'd like, you know Have your friends go And you'd go bowling or something But Dude, we should Gotta throw CJ The ultimate birthday party I love We gotta make that up for you Like, birthday cakes Balloons We should just stay in Vegas Whole nine yards Fireworks How far out's your birthday? May 15th And what next? On Friday Next week Next week Oh, it's a while I mean But CJ As you say Back in Vegas with our crew? Just saying. We'd have to go home. Logistically difficult. Couldn't do it. Financially impossible. As CJ sometimes say, you know, let's just stay on our home turf and make a better video at home. We're going to do that with your birthday. It's a Friday birthday, too? No, Mike, we've got to go to a bowling alley at least. I do love bowling. We have to go to a bowling alley. If we really want to do it big, we're going to go to Skateland. I'm not saying bowling. I would go bowling. Holiday in pool? I'll go to Skateland. I don't care. Go to the pool. Community center. That was fun. We rent out the party room. Dude. Yeah, like a hotel with a pool. That would be good. And then ham sandwiches with Doritos on them? No, you get Domino's pizza, bro. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what you get. A bit of ice cream cake? Domino's, then you got like Cheetos, Doritos, two liters of pop. And then CJ will correct you what he really wants. Yeah, he can cook. Do you want like Mountain Dew, Diet Pepsi? Ken, actually, if you give me an infrared scope, that'd be great oh i'm glad you asked and then also infrared binoculars like a diet mountain dew no he's on diet coke everybody gets party favors everybody gets parahelies yeah when cj's opening up his gifts they're just like insane like thousands of dollar gifts he's like oh i wanted these infrared binos thanks guys they're like eight thousand dollar binos It'd be close to almost as much as your statue. Oh, my gosh. I already have a date, Jess, but thanks again, boys. A Rolex? He, like, keeps opening shit up, and we're like, no, actually, who the fuck bought this shit for him? Oh, he just started buying it. I just gifted myself things. A round trip, PJ, to wherever I want in the country? That'll come in handy. Yeah, those would be awesome gifts. But, yeah, we'll throw you a birthday party, Siege. Well, unless you really, I don't know. There's plenty of moments in movies where they're like, don't throw me a birthday party, whatever you do. And then they're like, throw him a giant surprise party. Hmm. Yeah. What's like the best birthday party you've ever been to? I think the best birthday party I've ever been to was when that dad flew us out for his son's 14th birthday on his private jet. And then picked us up in a helicopter and then brought us into the mountains. and we did a bunch of stuff and then flew us home on the private jet. Like, that was a pretty crazy birthday party. He dropped a snowmobile from a helicopter. Yeah. We actually still talk to Max, the kid that is birthday. He was with us in Florida when that whole debacle was going down with that woman and Ken at dinner. He was at that dinner with us. That's funny. That was a pretty crazy birthday party. I don't know if anything will ever top that, actually. I don't know if it's even possible to. What? Put cat food in my buzz ball. Oh, you did? I have a video of you, like, realizing. And I'm, like, looking around. Didn't you put cat food in Shred 80's mouth? Yeah. Like, can you be that mad about it? I look like backwash. I couldn't identify it. And I knew me and Shred 80 were drinking. But I'm just, like, kind of looking at Gavin. I'm, like, what is going on here? And I'm still drinking it. You couldn't even taste it. The buzz ball neutralizer. Max is just sitting there, grinning, and he never said it, and finally I just gave up because it was like half full with cat food, so I kept, yeah, look at this. Look at him trying to figure out. Look, it looks like a fucking goldfish in a fish jar. Gavin was drinking out of it, he wasn't done chewing, and just half his food went in. The big pot. Who did this? You had enough of the buzz ball. No one, what? What a waste. I haven't had a sip of that shit. Yeah, he was sitting there. Like, after the podcast, he was like, dude, I put cat food in Evan's buzz ball. And I was like, well, it's pretty funny watching you sip on it. I think it was the next day that he told me. He told me at some point, but I don't think it was that night. He was like, oh, yeah, I did put cat food in your buzz ball. Nice. He literally held it up for a minute. I got pretty lucky with, not per se, like, we did a specific party, but, like, three years in a row. We were, like, in Vegas over my birthday. we always had a good time like going out to dinner and just like yeah so not necessarily a party but like i always had a very very good time what was the date transpiring on you getting hired officially was that your birthday was my birthday that was yeah your birthday in san diego it was such a i was in a weird state because i woke up feeling super sick that morning so me and you we went we rode bike to like e-bike so i'm drinking a bunch of uh day quill just trying to not feel like i'm dying and then i start rolling on the mimosas i had breakfast so i think i was a little confused and then yeah you guys gave me a job a lot it was a lot to process all that morning and you were like we were like well think about it i don't need to think about it i'm calling my boss right now then you walked out i walked out of breakfast and called your boss cj is like dude just like actually like think about it for a little bit and i actually listened to him for like 20 minutes and we're in the rv and i actually uh texted him not that i didn't end up calling him i have a good relationship with him or whatever but i just wanted to like give him like more of respect like the biggest heads up like i'm gonna be doing this so like i'm not gonna wait a week or whatever yeah and then he can start planning immediately yeah i remember we're all sitting at breakfast where you ben cj me and ev and then that was back when mike was still sleepy and uh we're sitting there at breakfast and I go to the bathroom and Evan's gone. He's over on the phone talking to Nikki. And I go, yo, we just hired Evan. I was like, I was in the bathroom for like three fucking minutes. All right. The time was right. The time was just right. The time was just right, dude. Hey man, now that Ryan's out of here. I did feel a little bad. Cause she's like, like, we're not going to talk about it. I'm like, uh, not much to talk about. Like, I mean, I should have like let her feel like she was helping me make the decision, but it wasn't really a, yeah really an option you can't really say no to getting hired on your birthday ironically enough shit my pants on stilts oh my gosh oh my gosh so you've been doing this for a while oh yeah because i was on all the nyquil and the mimosas i was a wreck and then uh buttery had those like oh yeah we have buttery's on those stilts they got me running up and down the road i'm jumping were they bouncy stilts or were they just straight up drywall state no no no they had a little spring in him so like you could kind of run with him and like we were like eight foot bounds you were having fun we were filming a podcast in the rv leave evan and medium unattended for like two hours and he keeps himself and boy that yeah he didn't help yeah whoa no not like that let's just say i left that basement confused that sounded bad too fuck so many i actually don know where you going can you explain yourself i think you said too much or what about that time Slim had a Friday birthday and you guys didn leave your lawn chairs till Monday Yep You guys slept in your lawn chairs No, it's just one of our favorite quotes of Slim's where, like, his dirt bike was broken, but we were going, like, on a camping trip or something, and we were all busting his balls because he wasn't going to be able to ride with us all weekend, and he just had his crisper next to the lawn chair, and he just says, I don't give a fuck if I don't leave this chair till Monday. A legendary quote that we actually bring up at least once a week. We've got some shop remodels going on around here. We're just finally finishing up the conference room. But the best part about the shop has been the wash bay. You guys used it yet? I have. I used it the other day. You did a shitty job on your car. It was dirty by the time you got to the farm. I didn't do the best job, I'll be honest. Which is not a credit to the supplies, which our boys at S&S Auto Supply hooked us up. They're local guys actually out of Fargo, and they have commercial cleaning products. So they gave us the mixers so we don't use too much soap in the bottles. The washbasis dialed, man. It looks so good. It does look good. It looks so good, and it works phenomenal. Which is awesome. What do you want? Press the button. Yeah. It comes out. It doesn't get better than that. We've gone through a lot less soap. There was a couple guys, myself probably included, when you would mix it in the foam can and you'd Yeah, they were pouring like half a bottle of soap, but we're going through buckets of soap fucking weekly. Wait, so on this new setup, you just press it once and it autofills? No. Ben pressed it seven times. It's not filling the bottle to the top. For the normal soap, it's pre-diluted. Yeah. So, like, when you're doing the degreaser or the soap or the ceramic soap, you just, like, press the button and fill up your jug. Okay, that makes sense. You don't need to add water anymore. Oh, makes sense. Oh. Yeah. That makes a lot more sense. Oh, because did you add water? I did. Well, it's a nice setup, but it's not idiot-proof. I guess so. All right, that makes it way more sense. Oh, that's a good setup. Dude, that is really nice. That's dummy-proof now. Yeah. You can't beat a hand wash. Like, you can go to a touchless car wash. You can go to a touch car wash. You can't. But just doing it the old-fashioned way, grabbing the mitt, a bucket of soapy water, and just spraying and wiping the thing down, you're not going to beat that, man. It's just that's the best way if you want to get your car. Something therapeutic about it, too. That's what I was thinking. It is. I enjoy it. I think it makes you appreciate your car again, you know, you get your hands on it. Dude, do you guys ever feel like when I have, like, a clean car, like, the inside's clean and the outside's clean, I feel like it runs better. Like, I'm, like, driving the thing. I'm, like, this thing's mint. Like, you know, I don't know. There's something about it. Obviously, that's just in my head. But it's, like, there's something about it where I'm just, like, accelerating a little hard. I'm, like, this thing's brand new. It's fine. I feel like that after I changed the oil in the Raptor. That, too. It's good for it, but it's not making it run better. No. But I get in and go, oh, this thing's good for another $100,000. Yeah. You just feel better putting your foot into it more so. You're not like, oh, I don't want to drive it too hard. I do feel that way about it. At least having a clean car, it makes you like it again. I don't think you realize you get in your car, it's all dirty and dusty and whatever, and then you clean it out and you're like, damn, just like the day I got her. We're just finally finishing up the conference room. but still can't find a door for my bedroom. What is the status on the door, Ryan? That was 100% on me for sure. When we did it, we go, all right, if we kick this door in, how fast can we have it replaced? And Ryan was like, a week tops. We're like, okay, let's run it. It truly doesn't bother me, and I get more enjoyment once a month just bringing it back up. No, that is actually on me, and I'm going to take care of that within a month. Within the next six months. Yeah. By the end of the year. By the new year, I'll be pumped. That'd be cool. No. Yeah, that's my bad. That and there's something else broken, too. Yeah, things are looking good around here, though. We've got a new conference room that is kind of just like a meeting room. We'll, like, sit down and throw ideas at the board. So we've got, like, the world's biggest whiteboard. I'm pretty fucking proud of that whiteboard. Yeah, the whiteboard's awesome. It's as big as they make them in one sheet. 6 by 12. Is it like backlit? No, it's not backlit. But it's magnetic and glass. Magnetic and glass. The race is so nice. It was, I'm not going to lie, it was... Yeah, can I, I'm curious. I want to know. I still don't know how much all of it is. Just the figures. I don't want to know how much. How many figures? It might ruin my day. Is it five figures plus? No. Oh, my God. i mean it's a fucking hundred thousand dollar whiteboard no no five well you said plus well yeah five figures plus oh okay no it'd be like it was it was mid four figures oh mid four okay we got technically mid upper corbeau with install so close to five it's closer to mid than it was to upper nice that's not bad we got like corbeau who makes racing seats hooked us up with a bunch of red office chairs. Oh? You got 12 of them. What's in those boxes? Yeah, dude. It's going to look insane. I thought we were outfitting every car on the property with racing seats. The office seats are sick, but I... You got a car we need them in? No, not really. Meowth is dialed, so we're getting them out. Yeah, we already got them in the yard. I'm just saying, I saw a lot of those boxes. I was like, man, that's a lot of seats. Yeah, they make gaming chairs now. We probably will need seats, actually, for Evan's other car. True. I've been getting a lot of DMs Poking about what this burnout car Is going to be And I wouldn't consider it A burnout specific build But it's definitely going to shred some tires Yes When you say building a burnout car There's a very special Type of car That is a burnout specific So I'm not giving anything away But I do clarify I don't want anyone to be super disappointed And be like that's not a burnout car What's the difference between just a high-horsepower car that can do a good burnout versus a burnout-built car? One big one is usually you've got tubs. Cooling. So when it's tight, cooling. But, like, the tubs in the rear end, so you actually shred the tires off and you don't ruin the car. You know what I mean? Oh, metal. Is it just cooling and then just having tubs in the rear? Kind of. And obviously high horsepower? Unnecessarily high horsepower with absolutely no objective to put traction to the ground. you know and what's the goal in a burnout competition is it style or is it just who can burn their tires off the quickest good question I know that there's something to do with time almost like you don't want to blow them off too quick but also not oh my gosh you guys I just saw the craziest video of this guy the other day I gotta show you he was doing a burnout in a burnout competition you're gonna laugh your freaking ass off Oh, my God. Please tell me it's the fucking Shelby that just... He didn't do a burnout. Yep. I don't know what this guy was doing. Watch this shit, you guys. You're going to laugh. Oh, my gosh. No! Look at him. Look at him in the driver's seat. That's a $125,000 truck. What the fuck? He's just... Oh, he's hammered. Oh, my God, dude. Oh, he's hammered. I don't think he's hammered. That's quite possibly... Dude, he's hammered. I think he's just realizing he just drove a fucking show. No, bro. He's at 100%. There's no way they put him in a... Is that Bones? That's Bones. Who? Hey, it's one of our hoodies. No, they call him Bones. He's a local guy. I think that was just when reality hit. Oh, my gosh, dude. He realized what he had done. It actually doesn't look that bad, the damage. No, it really doesn't. Megadome or whatever? Yeah, the... Insurgis? Yeah. Dude, I've watched this video 15 times and never noticed this guy. It looks like Ken. Actually fucking losing it in the driver's seat. Ken's like, how does that look like me? Just the couch photo. Man, that was epic. That guy was maybe bundled, too. I was just trying to go home, but it turns out he parked in the burnout pit. He didn't do fucking anything. He didn't even do that truck as, like, how many horsepower? 700? It could easily do it. It was actually a pretty weak burnout. He just kind of forgot about the brake. He ABS'd himself. I'm sure he was running the brake, and then with the gas, and then the brake didn't work. Yeah. Yeah. I crashed into my garage with my Buick once. Same thing. I'm surprised his airbags didn't go off. Yeah. Pretty good smack. Yeah, hitting on cement walls never. Did you guys see this? Can you imagine being the Chevy driver? I heard the Chevy driver was a cop, a lady cop. Don't know if that was true. A lot of shit gets said across. She looks kind of like she would be. She parked her Silverado on top of a sick-ass Huracan. Okay, I've got a crazy conspiracy theory on this. How could you possibly have a conspiracy theory on this? The one thing that immediately discredits me is they don't have a better video of it happening, but it made such a spectacle out of it. They went and got a flatbed truck to pull it off, like just fucking throw it in reverse and back off. I agree. The guy who owns the Lambo, classic Florida Lambo owner, is like a business guru. And so he's got 15 videos of him walking around his car with his Lambo all cooked like this. And they left it for like, it took hours to get it off. They had a big crowd come out. Honestly, if it was my Lambo, I'd be like, just leave it. I got to get my buddies over here to see this. Oh, 100%. I do agree with that. I'm sure they didn't want to talk. They wanted to document everything with cops just so insurance could take care of it. But the way that guy acted in all those videos, pretty sus. I think it's probably totaled. It probably is. It didn't even go through the glass. Wow. Yeah, but I'm sure it's structurally. Yeah, it's probably totaled, but it's salvageable. No, everything's salvageable. That brings up the scenario, Ryan. So in, I think, one of the last David Dobrik videos, this guy has an old school kind of like muscle car. I think it's going to. Yeah, I think it might be. and it pops out of gear, and it probably doesn't have a good e-brake, and it rolled down the hill, because it's in California, onto the hood of a Tesla. Yeah. And then when they tried, they just were like, all right, we're going to back the Tesla out. Which was so dumb. I don't think it was dumb. The Tesla getting out was smart. Instead of having the person in the El Camino ready to hit the brakes when they backed out so it didn't roll again, he floors it out. No one was in the vehicle in front. It was still in neutral. rolls back up onto it. I don't know if that was intentional, but it was one of the stupidest things I've ever seen. It was hilarious. How'd they catch that on video? Well, they didn't catch the initial thing, but then they got it. They went out. Yeah, so he tried to drive it out, and then no one was in the car that was on top of the Tesla ready to hit the brakes. It was still in neutral with no one in it. Do you guys see that in Columbia, that lady monster truck driver that just drove through the crowd? Yeah. At least you got mad. Horrible. No, no, no. The throttle must have stuck. Yeah, probably a vehicle malfunction. Yeah, really messed up. And he killed people? Yes. Oh, my gosh. What? That is a good-looking El Camino. Why would you do that? He even had it there, but then he got nervous and threw it in reverse again, and then it got speed. Whose car's that? Rod, you can't park there. With all of us, we can lift it up. We can lift it up. Alex, drive it. Yeah, it's no good, dude. I've always thought about that when I'm at Monster Jam. I'm like, they could easily drive right over the barricade. Apparently there was just a dude that they said they pulled his monster truck license, but he actually rolled out. Yeah, that one wasn't even. And what was crazy is now just today I see a clip of Gravedigger, same arena for sure, probably the same day, that does the backflip, does the normal routine, flips his monster truck, literally comes up like 10 feet shorter than the dude that did the exact same thing. and everyone was defending him because, like, dude, I know you can't risk that. Wait, this guy got in trouble for doing this? Yeah. He banked his license. Why? Dude, I don't know. Apparently they said too aggressive. He could have, like, in theory launched up into the crowd, yeah. I mean, I get that, but it's also, like, how about don't do it in tiny stadiums like that? Yeah. Yeah, that doesn't really seem like it's quite his fault. I don't know if that's. It's just a mismatch. Ray Tigger literally does the same thing. He just rolls one less time and stops right, like, in that doorway, and apparently that was fine. But, like, how much control do those guys, obviously, like, when it starts going forward like that, but, like, what could he have done differently? And that one is tough because, like, that one he just rolled and bounced on a jump. It's different if you have, like, a malfunction where your throttle sticks and then you just, like, ram into. But they were saying, so, like, I don't know if this is true, but it actually makes sense, is that all of, like, the professional Monster Jam trucks or whatever have, like, remote kills, switches or whatever. So, like, when we're talking about that deal in Columbia, where that one just goes rogue. That lady went crazy? No, no. Her throttle just sucked. It looked like an older Monster truck. Yeah. It wasn't a real one. It wasn't a real one, yeah. It was not a Monster Jam truck. So the kind of setup you'd see for, like, a burnout contest, like, metal railing fence with the crowd standing right up to it. Not even jersey barriers. And she just drove through it. So, like. Bad deal. Yeah, really bad deal. Dude, they've had, like, the same monster truck characters since I was a little kid. Like, they've always had Gravedigger. They had the dog. They rotate. There's, like, fresh ones, but you've got to keep the classics. Absolutely. I'm not complaining about it. So is that the same team, or how do you end up getting, I'd imagine it's got to be ran by the same team if they're still there. It's like the same vehicle design, but they rotate the drivers through it. Well, obviously, yeah, different drivers. You know what they need to do to Monster Jam is they need to WWE-ify it. They need to make it a battle, a personal battle, and then make it interesting to watch. It has escalated a lot, though. I don't know if it's the past five years or maybe longer, but when they have a big area or a big arena, some of the jumps that they are doing is, I remember watching as a kid, and it's way different now. I mean, doing the backflips and then literally jumping way over 100 feet. Just a flat. It's insane. They've definitely leveled up, but I imagine the trucks are way better. Suspension, yeah, way more power. Yeah, they're all doing flips now. dude they have big ass trucks flipping over is just a primal love of a man i think travis was the first one to to try it if i'm maybe someone had tried it but remember uh on yeah on nitro circuit so many years ago he tried to tried to do one and landed right on the roof like it was pretty scary i think i remember that now it's just like a normal thing like yeah that would one of those shows everyone's doing everyone's flipping that was back when they used to hype up a Nitro Circus episode for like weeks. Remember you'd see like the teasers on TV. You're like, oh shit, we got to watch Travis's flip or the skate park. What's up guys?

Well, I don't know, but maybe it kind of works. Or do they just put like a little bit of bubble wrap here and there and call it good? That's probably his strategy. But he actually does that. Maybe we've met, and he probably mentioned it on the podcast. But he goes, if you guys are ever in a pickle for something that you're scared to do, use a lot of bubble wrap. It is a one-time use. He's like, but it works. I've been thinking we need to debatably try that. Like a TRX jump, some bubble wrap. Yeah, something like that. Yeah, just try it. because you blow all the air out and you go, oh, that worked, and then you put a new bubble wrap in. Hey, Jack, order us up some bubble wrap. I mean, it makes sense. Big bubble bubble wrap. Perfect. I'm on it. Do you even have oil changes, Ryan? No, they just keep adding fucking oil to my car and not removing it. That's the problem. So did they actually overfilled it twice? There's dry sump oil pumps to part of the engine, and they didn't drain the oil from the oil pumps. So then when they re-added the oil, they added too much oil, which caused it to push between gaskets and things. Like, it doesn't just get into the combustion chamber accidentally. So they added too much and didn't account for the oil in the dry sumps? Exactly. They added the correct amount but had all the oil in the gas. It would maybe be a safe, like a blow-by. And maybe there is, and that's how it got mixed into my combustion chamber. You're saying there's two dry sumps, and they drained one of them, was it? Yeah, so then I brought it in. I was like, there's a fucking problem, and then they fixed the right side, but they didn't fix the left side. Either that, or they just added too much oil to the engine a second time. So, yeah, bit of a deuce. They owned up to it and took care of it right away. But what is taking care of it? I guess just changing the fucking oil again. Bro, I brought my truck to get the window fixed three times. They have not fixed it. Really? Still isn't fucking open? So what's it do? It just doesn't work? It gets stuck. I have to grab it and pull it up. It is pretty much. Oh, my God. That's fucking annoying. And now it's working, but it's like, eee. Like, it's going so slow. I got a 2024 Ford Raptor. It should not be doing this. How the fuck? And that's like, it's one thing because I go, my Corvette smokes. and they go, it ain't smoking now. And I go, okay, you're right. But, like, the window, they would just have to. Dude, I don't know. The first two times they were, like, trying to reflash something on it. I'm like, no, it's the motor. And then supposedly they replaced the motor, but I don't think they did. It still don't work. But it's wasting my time because, like, dropping your truck off, you have to have someone pick you up. It's just this whole rigmarole. I'd demand a courtesy car. Dude, I might fucking demand them some money for lost revenue. Dude, every time I see you hopping in that car, Ryan, I just start pulling my phone out. It's probably smart, honestly. The clutch on starting does not engage correctly anymore. Like, when I, like, stop at a stoplight and then start going, it kind of is just like... Time for some high-performance parts. Yeah, I'm just going to keep going. They say it's fine, so I'm just going to keep driving it how I have been. And if something happens... It's under warranty. Did you have a warranty? I heard so. Supposedly, that's what they say. But also, I mean, Chevy will do anything to get out of their warranty. I'm sure they won't. Didn't they do some weird kind of stuff where if you sold the car within a certain time frame when those came out, the warranty was just completely void? Yes, they did, which I was worried about, but my guy had it for six months, so we're good. And he sold it for below MSRP, which was also anti-flipper. Ryan, if you weren't going to be a Corvette driver, what would your car be? if you were going to replace this? A Hummer EV? No, no. Would you get like a Tesla Model S Plaid so you had, you know, your electric truck or whatever you want to call your Hummer and the electric car? No, I'm done with the electric car. Although it is nice because gas prices are up. They are. Yeah, they're so cheap. It's pretty bad. But I don't know. I don't really have anything that I'm like, I must have. The new TRXs are obviously sweet, but I'm not paying over MSRP for another one. You can only buy so many TRXs for above MSRP. Before you get on some kind of list. Yeah, exactly. They'll start fucking directly emailing me being like the idiot list. I don't know, CJ. Honestly, your G-Wagon has been appealing to me. I think that would be a nice car. It's rugged and it's off-road, but it's luxury. I'll sell it to you. You might have just talked yourself into it there. Yeah, it's too bad your Corvette's broken. Otherwise, I'd trade you. Well, it's currently working. And it has a warranty. I don't want that thing, dude. It's got a warranty. You see what it's been through? Would you sell it for MSRP? No one's ever going to fucking buy it. My G-Wagon? Absolutely. See, you're good. It's not more than MSRP. Ryan's like, if it ain't over MSRP, I ain't interested. I'd get a red one. It's a six-year-old vehicle. I'll sell you it for MSRP, absolutely. I'd go get a red G-Wagon. If you want it wrapped, maybe we can get a deal. I need a wrap. There you go. We need a wrap. It's a good point, actually. A couple of red wraps. It looked great coming out. I don't think we need any more red vehicles around here. No, I feel so. Like, dude, I think we are actually capped out. We do have a lot of red vehicles. We have a lot. We could almost do, like, green, blue. I've had two orange cars. I've been trying. I've been trying to diversify. I have a green car and an orange car. Ryan, you have been trying, like, the two orange cars, and then you pull up next to all the red cars, and you can just feel it. You can feel the energy. Wish that guy car was red It good but I wish it was red My Bronco pretty close to red It not but it close You closer to orange You're closer to my boat, Ken. It's not a boat you want to be in. DJ, you got to sell that G-Wagon because I want to roll around when you're in that yellow Gallardo. I know. Gated. I don't even... I'm not just hyping you up. Like, when Evan sent that and he was talking to you, I genuinely think that might be one of the top cars for you to own. Yeah, it's going to be fucking sick. I know kind of like Gucci and Waka were the Ferrari boys. Gucci and Waka. We'd be more than kind of lit, Ev. Except for if me, Mike, and Ben go driving in our red cars, you actually wouldn't. See you. The red mog. Hey, hang back a couple of months. The red mog. Yeah, when you guys did your little photo shoot outside of Zorba's and my car was just in the back, it just had a little wing and it was orange. I just didn't. I was just like, I'm not. I'm just going to keep it hidden. It just sucks. Speaking of cars, were you having a transmission issue on the Viper? Is that buffed itself out? No, I wish. I'd be sick if it just buffed itself out. Oh, I guess I meant did you fix it all the way from last summer? Yeah, I mean, I just, like, didn't get it fixed this winter. It was, like, synchro or something, right? Yeah, fifth year synchro. No big deal. What does that mean? It just grinds putting it into a fifth. Oh, just turn the music up. And I shift it like a baby, so it's fine. But if you were to keep doing it, it would probably, like, go out. Maybe now's a good time to tell you guys. I think the Syncros are a little jammed in the drift truck. Does not like shifting into second gear. I think it was always like that, wasn't it? Perhaps. I just realized that. You got to know. You got to know. The day we got it, I'm like, damn. They're grinding. I don't know. It's just like zero RPMs. It goes in pretty smooth. But if you're moving, it's violent. A lot of stuff needs fixing. you're saying your wheels are feel like they're gonna fall off you on that thing oh yeah what well i got a new wheel they were like slightly used wheels these like three-piece rotiforms and i put them on and they they at very least need to be balanced too when i drive and i'm like all right this is bad oh no raptor experience yeah it needs an alignment and some balancing for sure maybe more but the guy was like yeah the tires are like brand new on it and then i'm like they look like they have 40,000 miles on them. Oh, God. So that could be part of it, too. But that could be the burnouts. And then, like, maybe if you saw Ben's story the other day, I just keep scraping my front lip so hard, but it's fine because it's already broken. But that one was probably my best work, Ben. Dude, Mike's treating his Viper like an excavator. What do you say? It looks like a shovel. I don't understand taking things at an angle? Bro, go drive in that Zora's parking lot with that and don't scrape it. You have to just go at different entrances. I understand that. I think we need to try. I understand that. I'll do it. Yeah, we can go out there. I just won't go down the steep gravel one. As a low-car guy, I understand how to take things out of hand. So get down the gravel one? Yeah, and it was bad. Mike, that was maybe just a bad idea. Well, there was no parking spot. My pickup stand near scrapes going down that. Well, then I'd say I'm doing pretty good, but there was no other parking spots. I would have had to park on the highway, which I should have done. I'm actually surprised you didn't high-center. I did, but I didn't get stuck. You high-centered as well. That's what I'm getting at. Holy. Going in. Because it's where the sidewalk is legitimately six inches higher. Yes. Dude, I almost went in there with the Lambo. Don't. Except for I kicked it into reverse and said, can't. Yeah. And that's saying something because sometimes you put Evan's car in reverse and it doesn't come out for a little bit. I know. I just don't use reverse and the car's been great. Not a problem in months. That's where I was actually sad because when I scraped the front lip, I legitimately don't care because it can get mangled. I have another one. It's okay. The rest of the car is fine. But boy, when I literally dropped off basically a curb, just on the center of the car. Was Sydney in the car with you? No, but everyone outside at the patio at Zorba's. Was Jake there? He would have loved it. The Roland. Mike, before you swap that out, we should film a video like seeing how gnarly of scrapes you can do. Well, no. I'm not trying to rip the bumper off, bro. Well, not that gnarly. Just like standard gnarly like pulling into Zorba's. He's like, oh, I do that daily then. Yeah, a little compilation. I do. I scrape going out of my driveway. It's too narrow, so I can't get an angle. You know, like the curb goes up, so I can't. Start driving on the grass. You just straight up start and end your day with just a gnarly scrape. It's kind of fun. Like when he punches in and out. Yeah. I think Ben was, you know, like he says, he pulls out his phone every time that Ryan starts his Corvette. But I think you were so excited to get down there in your little jelly bean. You basically framed on the drift wall and three-wheel dropped in, and you were so excited at Ryan's car smoking. I don't even know if you realized it. I was standing there. I do that every time. That thing's like a skateboard. Still kind of gnarly to just scrape and three-wheel focus. Really? His GT3RS kind of looks like a jelly bean, too. Oh, all right. I mean, I love it. All right, podcast over. As a GT3RS lover, I mean, I think it's one of the most beautiful cars in the world. It does kind of look like a jelly bean. Jelly bean, boy. It's a good-looking jelly bean from a guy that's owned a lot of jelly beans. A lot of not good-looking jelly beans. Yeah. No offense. It's got a little jelly bean-esque to it. It's a little jelly bean-ish. Yeah. It's a cool jelly bean. It's got aero. It's like a really cool Volkswagen bug. It's a bug with a wing on it. Yeah. Yeah. I put 1,000 miles on that thing since Thursday. That's impressive. In the last five days. You should put black polka dots and some eyelashes on that thing, and it would look like a ladybug. That would actually be pretty cool. Then you and Jack could be twinning. All right, Ben, earmuffs. Seam cars. Put that down in your notes. I got it. That's a really good idea. But 1,000 miles, do you worry that that will affect the resale? I don't care about the resale. You're keeping it forever? No, but I'm not going to not drive it. I think that's a good mentality. Okay, now that Ben has bought a GT3, the market will tank, and then they're going to be not as expensive. So thank you for buying. Oh, it will. 100% guarantee it happens every time. But, yeah, I don't really care. Also, I don't really care about throwing donuts at it either. Ken, I'm still waiting for you to throw a box of donuts at it. I gave you the clearance. Well, I've got a different idea that I've got to get at least two other people involved in to make happen. But I've got a better idea. Don't say too much now, Ken. And then I'll throw a donut at it. What's your beef with donuts? Like, you don't do them in your vehicles? You don't. No, no, no. I just don't, like... The calories. What with the carbs? I just don't, like, throwing shit at people's cars. But what about the inside of my car? Well, you were throwing a donut at my car, so it just... Did I? Did I? Or was it everybody else? Did you not throw one? No. Oh, yeah. I didn't. And then a fucking half-custard-filled donut came in and went... Sorry about that, right? I just like fucking Dirty Dan and the boys. When I see a good old dozen donuts flying my way, I just assume everyone's throwing donuts at me. It's like the firing squad. This guy drives by. All you had to do was a little pressure washer. Jack and I had to detail it, and it looks good now. It does. We missed the spot, though. The steering wheel. The whole H3 is just, or HEV, is cooked flat with donut. Just give it a good lick. No. Stale, no. I just kind of got a M3. What? What? You kind of bought a car? Well, I mean, like, I told Scott to, like, pull the trigger on one. Oh, nice. And then he was like, all right, got it coming. Really? Yeah, it's like, it's on its way, but I haven't got it. What is it? Dang. Matt Black. Four-door? That'll be shit. Shut up. Four-door? Yeah. That's lit. It's got orange interior. Are most M3s? M3s are four-doors. M4s are two-doors. It makes no sense. I personally think the M4 looks kind of out of proportion with two-doors. Yeah, I agree. It's kind of long. An M3? Kind of long. Yeah. So it's four doors. Yeah. Is it all-wheel drive? Yeah. Nice. Really? Yeah. So that's your winter car? Yes, until I make it like super low with like a front lip on it that's that far off the ground, and I'm going to tear every snowbank that I hit. I think you're entering into, there's a thing called the two-car solution. And the key of a two-car solution, like Gallardo Raptor, great two-car solution. Yep. Look good together. They serve different purposes. Yep. To myself or CJ where we had big truck and then big SUV. Bad two-car solutions. Because you don't get any enjoyment out of driving the other because they're the same. Right. And I'm worried that your two-car solution, not to sit on this new purchase of yours, maybe you have two race cars now. And then you're going to have to venture into three-car solutions. Technically, three race cars. I mean, is the blue or the jelly beans? I don't know. I'm going to sell my Focus. Really? I'm going to trade it on it. Smart. Yeah, Ryan, I don't know. I guess... You guys need a pickup. Megatruck Viper. Straight up. I've had pickups. I've had pickups. I've had pickups my entire life. Ryan needs a pickup. Ben needs a pickup. No, I don't. I literally just sold mine, bro. I don't need it. You didn't have a pickup. You didn't drive it for the last, like, two years. Yeah, I literally didn't drive it. I didn't drive it for a year, bro. I don't have a pickup. Can I go and borrow the company truck with someone already using it? I thought about that, Ben. And I was like, Ben's really going to want a truck. And then I said, I had the same thought. I was like, wait, he hardly uses his Raptor, and he rarely borrows the company truck. Yeah. Yeah, I think you're maybe good without a pickup. I'm just concerned that it's going to be too long. And I'm concerned that a two-car solution is not enough. Mike is like, two cars. I would agree. Two cars, what do you do with the other five days? I'm concerned. Two cars is a good start. Something such as a, you know, El Camino, Ranchero, something like that. I have thought about it. All the bases. It's a good third edition, to be fair. That would have just gotten everything covered. Shit, Ev, we may have given you the perfect three-car solution. Ev does have that. My theory is that Ryan maybe wanted an M3, so he was like... I've seen him say, you said... I do like M3s. Of all cars, since you didn't have a good answer for that, of all cars that you've sent, like, kind of shared, you're like, check this BMW out, pretty sick. And they happen to be kind of an M3 vibe. Yeah, I think I would go X5 or bigger. Got to ride an X6M last night. They're sick. Who's? Nicole's. Oh. It's fast, dude. She's got an X6. That thing is sick. Yeah. I don't know. I guess we'll see. But, yeah, I had a truck for a year. Or I've had a truck for, like, five years, and I didn't drive it for the last year. I agree. You probably should have a pickup, but it would be fine. I mean, I still agree with that, too. I mean, your Dakota still technically runs if you need. Still got that. Might bust it out. It was the best pickup truck. Yeah. It's just the truth of it. It's debatable. Well, the Yukon would have been perfect if the front end would have stayed together. Yeah, well, let's not get crazy now. Now, that's going to be sick, though. So, M3. I'm excited to see one. Why no surprise? I mean, I was surprised that you dropped it, but it's like such a thing to pull up. I'm kind of surprised you just surprised us like this as opposed to more traditional. I don't know. I guess I'm surprised you guys with like a million things at this point. I don't know if it's like warranted. Yeah. That's fair. I feel you. I got it more just like a daily driver. I need, like, a vehicle to be putting, like, thousands of miles on in a week other than my Porsche. Yeah, that makes sense. So that was kind of more why. It does make sense. Now that you've had that car in your hands for a week, like, how's the suspension? Do you love the suspension? Yeah, how does it do around here? It does fine. Yeah, I mean, the suspension's, like, stiff, but so is any, like... Stern but fair. Yeah, fast car. So, yeah, I think it's just fine. Like, it's comfortable. My only issue with it is, like, the bucket seats are just fixed seats, and they're pretty vertical, but I've gotten so used to it at this point. So, like, you can't adjust the seats at all. So you can slide it forward or back, but they're fixed damn near at a 90 degree. Yeah, dude. When I hopped in there yesterday, I was like, damn, you can't move these back. But you get used to it. Yeah, I'm sure Biggeron should cut it. He could probably just cut it right here and then hinge it back. There you go. So I'd say that's the only issue with it as far as comfort goes, but I've got an exhaust for it. I'll put that on. It's going to sound insane. Valtronic again? Yeah, with headers. Oh, my God. Yeah, it's going to bark. Get those thrown on. Apparently, they're super easy to throw on because the engine's in the back on them, so all you have to do is just remove the bumper. Every exhaust we've ever tried to install has been super easy to throw on. I don't know. It's not for the Corvette. That sucked. Do you have a tune for it? That sucked. No. Doesn't need a tune. Even without, with changing the headers? No tune. I guess not. Huh, that's surprising. Dude, I just, of every vehicle ever has been the exhaust isn't hard to throw on, and it, like, it doesn't need a tune, but then it, neither of those things. I'm not calling cap, I'm just saying. Normally, cat backs don't need a tune, but you start monkeying with the downpipe or the headers or any of that, or you just take the cat out completely. This thing still has cats. Yeah. Yeah. So it's still like the headers, you know, is... I guess we'll see. But I think it's going to sound like an F1 car. Yeah, it's going to scream. That'll be sick. Got any wheels for it coming? I don't know if you need wheels. I think you should leave what you got on. It looked good, personally. Good, thanks. Speaking of BMWs and Matt Black, I saw this video. What? It's a fucking cop? Oh, my God. What? What? I didn't know they had cop cars like that. And so, is it AI? No way. It's so fucking tough to tell these days. You gotta read something. There's nothing to read. Is there any plates? There's no way. Hold on. Look at the way he hits the window. Go back. Oh, hold on. No, because he doesn't put a kickstand down. Yeah, it's fake. Oh, yeah. And the way he, like, punches the back side of the car in the mirror. I'm just saying, look at this dude. It's like, most people would think that's real. Speaking of weird cards, though, I got pulled over by a Yukon on 24th. What? When I was in high school. Was it like a drug enforcement agent? Yes, it was. It was something they seized and then used for a bit of time before they auctioned or whatever. How confused were you when that was happening? Well, technically, they didn't really pull me over, but I ran a stop sign a couple blocks from the school. They followed me back to the school and then blocked me, and I get out going, like, what the hell is going on here? And then it was... Yeah, you thought you were about to get jumped or something? Yeah, and it was a cop. And then they just scolded me for running the stop sign. I was like, yeah, I was late. And buffed. They couldn't give you a ticket because they weren't those type of cops? I mean, they probably could have. I think they just, I don't know. It's kind of a petty thing. I rolled the stop sign. They just wanted to scare you. Tell me not to do that. But it pretty much looked like Ken's rig for the whatever. What the hell? Cheap vehicle challenge. There are some sneaky undercover cops. I saw Camry the other day with, like, pulled somebody over with lights, just a normal-ass car. We have minivans up by Duluth. I don't love that because, you know, there's like anybody can buy cop-looking lights. Like what if, you know, what if a random car pulled you, like it's at night, all you see is some cop lights and you're like, that looks like a minivan. I think there is like some kind of way you can handle it if you think it's, it's like an unmarked cop car that you can call 911 and like tell. And they encourage you to do that. Yeah, until they, you're getting pit maneuvered when you do finally pull up. He's coming up freaking drawn. Yeah. I got pulled over in the SEMA truck one time, and there was no shoulder on the road. It was just straight up the curb. It was like the road and then curb. No shoulder. And the SEMA truck is massive. Yeah. And I'm like, I'm damn near taking up the entire lane the way it is. And so there was like this little approach, like a block up, and I was going to just pull off onto this approach. and so i i did pull off onto the approach and the cop came up with his fucking hand on his gun and was like get out of the car i was like bro i was like what yo i like put my hands out i was like oh what's the problem and he was like why don't you pull over when i got behind you i was like there was no shoulder i would have literally been stopping in the middle of the road when this was right here it's insane and they're like well i thought you were gonna run and you're like, that's on you, buddy. I'm in a giant pickup. You catch me. Did they eventually chill, or was it a hostile? It was pretty hostile for a while. He pretty much gave you every ticket in the book that he could for that thing. No, and then he let me off completely. Yeah, I think sometimes when they come up hot, just in my experience, and they're in the wrong, and if you're playing it cool, they end up kind of going a little bit easier on you. But if you go start talking back to them, then they almost want to give it to you. Bad idea. Just be respectful. and you might get lucky. Jeez, Mike. Jesus, Mike. What is that, number 76? 76. Damn. Speed A? Speed A. Ticket? No ticket. How do you get a better radar detector? How big were you going? I didn't have it. That's part of my five car problem is that I need to get five radar detectors. 67 in a 55. Nothing crazy. 12. 12. That's not good. How do you still have insurance, Mike? Well, I don't know. How do you still have your license? They kept running me off. I didn't get any points. So it wasn't even a written warning. It's because you're in North Dakota and you're getting pulled over. Yeah, that's part of it. They were super nice. Speaking of not being chilled, this was actually in North Dakota. So biased. It's during a Dewey stop. You think that? No, I was that. He punches the cop. That's a weak-ass punch, dude. What a fucking idiot. Why is he going to get his ass kicked? Imagine how dumb you have to be to just wind up and give a cop a little sock on the shoulder. Worst case scenario, he completely misses and just goes to jail for a while. I love that. Best case scenario, he hits him square in the nose and goes to jail for a long time. Yeah, exactly. It looks like it takes a while. It's like car wrestling. Yeah, exactly. Car wrestling. Crazy show, by the way. But yeah, I love these body cam videos. You feel kind of bad because it's probably somebody's bad day, but they're really editing them up now and making it uh making them funny it's crazy there's so much like police vids and all that i saw this one the other day they must have stopped this drug dealer and then while the drug dealer is in the car in the cop car his phone's there and then people are calling oh yeah and then the like they answer and it's like it's like two two two cops and they're like yo what's up what can i get you what do you need and he's like i uh can i get a mid like what 20 get me oh 20 can get you that you pull up like come meet us over here and then like the person drives over and they like told the guy he's like yeah we're talking with your customer he's like oh no he's like a really funny oh don't don't do that to him don't do that to him and like they're like the cops are kind of like oh we did like it was it seemed pretty cordial for the thing like it almost seems like they're friends but they're taking him to jail no it was real i watched it multiple times could not come to a conclusion. I think I'm leaning on that it was definitely real. It was real. It was two different cops were both talking to the phone. Yeah. And they sounded a bit different, but the person on the other end thinks they're talking to one. I'm like, that's kind of... No, I don't. They just thought they were in a group. They were all joking and smiling kind of. It was probably real, but I definitely questioned it. Yeah, I'm at the spot. What spot? Where do you want me to meet you? Well, I was talking to a little bit. I'm right here. I'm a pooper stop. So what you looking for? What you trying to get? I'm talking about $7.20. So what you trying to get for the $0.20? You want a $7? Huh? You want a $7? Or a $3.5? Or a $3.5? I don't think they're trying to make it to me. What's a $7? Is it something big? Yeah, it's something big. I mean, it's decent. It'll get you by. I can do the $7 for $20. I like you got cash out. Yeah, I got cash out. All right. What do you want? What do you want? You about to pull up to the spot? Yeah. Why you on Elm? Yeah, Elm. Yeah, right. Yeah, that's cool. That's cool with me. All right. Hey, brother. I talked to one of your customers on this. Oh, see, see. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. No, son. What they saying? They said they're going to meet you on Elm Street. Oh! That was the best reaction ever. I think we played it on the pod before, but my all-time favorite pullover body cam vid is still stop sign. Yeah, stop sign. This is amazing. Oh, yeah. Tell me why you stopping me. Yeah, I'm about to. Huh? I'm about to. What? I'm about to tell you. Stop sign? No. Stop sign, man. I said I'm about to tell you. Huh? You say stop sign? No, I said stop sign by you. Why are you stopping me? You made an improper right-hand turn. When you turn to a new road, you got to turn that closest lens here. Let me get an idea for your partner. I appreciate you, man. Can you hand me a beer as well? Was he joking? Or did he actually hear stop sign? The alcohol. He goes, can you hand me the beer? Hey, hold it. Don't be searching my car. We got a beer in the cup holder. What's going on here? Stop sign. You got a beer in the car. I've seen a lot of, like, stop sign. All right, I've seen the one on the right. That one. You know what? Plate covers are illegal. Yeah. Because, oh, you do know? No, no. The reason they're illegal is because elements happen, like snow and rain and stuff, and the police have no idea what your plate says. Stop sign. What? What's stop sign? I never said stop sign. Oh. I said the elements happen, like rain and snow, and then they get on your plate cover, and we can't read what your plate says. Wait, what's stop sign? Why do you keep saying stop sign? There's no way. That's weird. That's funny. There's a ton of those in there. Some cops get pissed. Some cops will just, like, start laughing right away. Oh, they know the meme. Bro, this is like telling CJ a story. If you don't hear everything, you just make up some random bit of information. And then you'll go, he was doing what? Well, it's when he's sitting on his phone and he's trying to fucking multitask. And it's like, bro, I'm going to just stop telling you this story because it's literally not entering your brain right now. Yeah, Ben went to the car wash, and now his car is clean. Ben crashed his car where? Into a Dairy Queen? Why? Hold up. Hold up. I can't put your phone away. Hold up. Hold up. What now? All right, now is everyone fucking listening? Because I'm going to start the story over. So true. All right, well, I think we've got a lot accomplished here. i think so too i gotta go do some spelunking know what explore some caves ben oh benny's gone we'll see spenny shortly cave diving spenny someone had the joke of like how you know your tunnel buddies if you hooked up with same girl as your buddy if you're a girl and hooked up with the same girl you're spelunking buddies like so that's where you're that's what you're You're about to go into... No, I'm going to go explore actual caves. I guess I have an hour until I... Does anyone know what the hell is going on right now? You even got Jack throwing his hands up. Dude, that was like... I, like, killed Dalton the other day. Stop, son. You can't kill Dalton. I can't actually kill him, but we were out on the boat, and I, like, went down the hatch. I'm like, well, see you guys. I'm going to go boof some peptides. And it just brought him to his knees. He's like, what the hell? You're getting really out of pocket with this outro, man. One more, Mike. Where the fuck are we going right now, bro? One more. I love where this roadmap is headed. One more, Mike. Give me one. I don't know, man. I think we've heard what we needed to from him. Yeah. Let's just end it here before Mike gets in trouble when he goes home. I was splunking. I heard you were splunking. Just regular caves. Bye. Okay. All right. Thanks for listening, guys. We'll see you next week. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye.
