What if the problem isn’t a lack of passion, but too many? We dive into the exhilarating and exhausting place between choices: the pull of stand-up comedy after a Kill Tony binge, the logic of academics and medicine, and the practical joy of building a podcast from a bedroom tripod while plotting mountain-top recordings. It’s a tour of ambition in all directions, grounded by one rule that actually works: show up, get reps, and let the feedback shape the path.

I talk through what it really means to start comedy—open mics, writing tight minutes, accepting that bombing is information, and iterating toward a voice. Then I zoom out to the career map: the appeal of research without the funding grind, the stability of medicine balanced against time costs, and the question of whether a “dream job” loses its magic when it becomes the rent payer. Sports dreams and risk also show up as a mirror, from hockey nostalgia and CTE worries to the curiosity of ultramarathons—how far can you push without breaking what you need for the rest of your life?

There’s a practical creator thread throughout: upgrading audio, testing formats, inviting listeners to pitch topics, and maybe hauling the show outdoors for a visual edge. Language learning and travel add another kind of growth—Arabic, Spanish, and the joy of turning strange scripts into familiar signs—which doubles as a lesson for any pivot. If you’ve ever felt pulled in five directions, this is your sign to pick one small action, stack it daily, and let evidence—not anxiety—decide what’s next.

If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who’s stuck at a crossroads, and leave a review with one topic you want me to tackle next.

SPEAKER_00 (00:00):
Yo yo yo, what's good everyone?
Happy spooky season.
We're back.
Fresh off the lick at theLouvre.
Light work, honestly, nothingreally, not much.
Just a little bit of, you know,hustling and bustling, securing
a few bags and locking in.
Um this is also just a sidehustle, but it's been pretty
illucative, gotta say.
Honestly, kind of crazy though,the lick at the Louvre.

(00:23):
How easy it was.
But happy that it's this time ofyear and don't gotta lay so low.
Uh the fit is not soconspicuous.
It looks real terrifying,honestly.
Now looking at it, it looks Idon't even know what it looks
like, but got the job done, youknow.
All on uh honest days' work,what can I say?
Would recommend it, you know.

(00:44):
Maybe gotta you know get thecrew back together, take another
trip to Paris with the fellas.
Call up Kanye Jay-Z, see what wecan pull off.
Um yeah.
Need some new scooters, though.
I think those will go toast.
Locked in though.
It was a crazy story, though.
I'm glad we're, you know,witnessing, you know,

(01:06):
masterpieces like that today.
And I'll do my best to make morehappen.
But it's it was fun, it's fun.
I don't know where's the next,maybe try to think of, you know.
Anything that the the BritishMuseum couldn't get their hands
on.
We gotta maybe set up thatmuseum, honestly.
Who knows?
I got some good stuff.
But well, no rush for anything.

(01:26):
We're we're sitting pretty.
But hope everyone's enjoying thespooky season.
Um got my girl, uh, she'swearing the spoils of the of our
hard work.
You can see the the picks on thegram, her rocking the the
queen's crown.
Anyways, uh it's been uh crazyspooked tober, if I do say so.

(01:51):
Give me inspiration though.
I mean, if it's that easy to hitleg like that, why the hell?
We all work and damn.
I don't know what the hell Iwant to do with my life, but
think about it.
Think about lots of stuff.
Honestly, think about it more.
I watched my first watched KillTony actually for the first
time, which is kind of crazy.
This thing is hot as shit, butyou know, gonna do it for the

(02:12):
gram, you know.
I'm wearing, you know, uh a highviz reflective vest and the
signature shades with, you know,a little bit of uh facial
obstruction for those who areonly listening to the audio.
But so where was I going withit?
Oh, yeah, listen to the KillTony for the first time.

(02:33):
That was kind of fun.
I've always seen like the clipson YouTube of just like the one
minute.
So I didn't actually understandthe format of it, and now I
finally know what like the meowsmean with those sometimes have
those going on in clips andthings like that, some of those
sounds.
But now it like low-key kind ofinspired me.
I'm like, dang, I want to makeme want to like try to stand up,
go get up somewhere and yeah fora minute, say some out-of-pocket
shit.
It sounds kind of fun, reallykind of giving me inspiration

(02:55):
because I don't know what thefuck I want to do with my life.
Like licks like this are fun,don't get me wrong, but you
know, I I don't want to belocked up in the pen for too
long, you know.
Uh you know, get away with whatI can, can't can't get too
greedy.
So I'm trying to figure outwhat's next after, you know, the
life of licks.
As fun as that may be.
So maybe that's an option.
I don't really know.

(03:16):
I don't know how that worksthough.
Like, how does how does likebeing a stand-up work now that
I've like I mean there's lots ofstuff that I want to seem
interesting.
If I think about it, I'vethought about so many things
that I've wanted to dothroughout life.
Like when I was a little like achild, I mean, OG me as like
six-year-olds wanted to be alizard.
That was peak career.
Whatever the fuck that means, Idon't know.

(03:38):
But it is what it is.
Then for a while, I was youknow, typically obsessed, you
know, with dinos, and I wantedto be paleontologist.
Sounded like another bad gag.
Didn't genetic engineering for awhile.
I don't know, paleontology now,though thinking about it, it
sounds not so bad.
Or geology, too, now that I'vedone some stuff.
Like seen some things.

(03:58):
Like it's a pretty place you getto go out in the field in some
like pretty mountains and justdig up rocks and shit.
Like, I mean, maybe that maybeit's not so glamorous.
Like it might be kind of like inhell of a grind living in the
camp, but also seems like kindof fun.
Depends where you go.
Sure, you get to go to like coolplaces like international, go
figure out stuff and kind of tryto piece together the history of

(04:20):
Earth.
Like that part's kind of cool.
So, who knows?
Paleontology also liked that,but you're kind of digging for
just bones.
I feel like you're probably inmore boring areas though,
typically.
Like if it's if it's like coolmountains, there's probably not
a whole lot of like good dynofossils, I would guess.
But I'm not certain.
But I'm guessing likemountain-forming areas are not

(04:42):
like uh typically the best areasfor preserving, you know, dinos
and fossils, things like that.
I imagine, you know, making amountain might be hard on the
fossils that are laying around.
Could be wrong though.
There's probably some, but I'mguessing it's not the ripest
area for picking up bones.
That'd be interesting.

(05:02):
Sounds kind of fun though,still.
Maybe like, I mean, I'd still bedown and just make a Jurassic
Park that leads to go in theColossal Grind, you know.
But the Jurassic World grind forreal when you're making custom
dinos.
That's what I that's that'd bemy shit.
I want to be, you know, theHenry Wu guy.
That'd be fun.
Anywho.
After that, I mean, I thinkgoing into college, I had no

(05:23):
idea what the hell I wanted todo.
I was like, you know, I'm gonnalook at Alex Science stuff, so
we'll try that.
I kind of just ended up doingsome computer science classes
because I'd never done any ofthat, and that just seemed like
the wave a few years ago.
I mean, it still does, althoughmaybe I don't know.
I don't know what the state oflike the the future looks like
with AI without without JET GPTand all of them.

(05:44):
Jets, who knows?
It's gonna be the future isuncertain in every single way, I
feel like.
But I took classes like that andmajored in that because that
seemed interesting, seemed a newwave, and I had none, like no
exposure.
It's kind of bold call to diveinto that.
I was kind of interested in likesome like biology stuff and like
bioengineering.

(06:04):
And uh bro, I think I told someshadi that in like the first day
some older shared.
It was like I was like kind ofinterested in bioengineering and
CS.
She was like, okay, so you'regonna be a CS major.
And I'm like, what do you mean?
Why are you calling me out likethat?
She turns out she was right, butI was like rude.
Although I didn't dabble more inbioengineering stuff as I went
like later on towards like mysenior and junior years.
And probably wish I'd done moreof that, but got no regrets

(06:29):
really.
It's all been fun.
Learned a lot, it's been allbeen pretty, pretty useful, I
would say.
I don't really know though whatexactly like the academic roads
lead.
Like being a professor soundskind of cool.

(06:51):
That'd be sick.
That'd be help out people dotheir research and like learn
how to do research.
That'd be probably kind of cooland like not have to necessarily
do all the groundwork of like alab stuff and research projects.
Nice.
But it's kind of rough gettingthere, and you don't like you
gotta get your own funding andall sorts of stressing and all
teaching responsibilities andother things like that that

(07:13):
aren't maybe I don't know.
Teaching has grown on me though.
I don't I don't mind teachingstuff.
But it's not like the thegreatest gig.
I guess if you tenured you'rejust there for life, but you've
still got all the stuff yougotta do, all the hoops you
gotta jump through.
And it's not, bro, especially inthe US, today's today's economy
not looking so hot.

(07:33):
I guess you want to go be aninternational professor, maybe
it's a good time because I thinkthey're trying to you know lure
away since you know USCuniversities ain't got the their
red up at the moment.
I don't know what the state ofthat is, but I guess it's good
for science elsewhere.
Maybe there's a cool place I'dwant to go.
I don't really think that's theroad for me, though.
I've thought about medicine andstuff that like be cool to I

(07:58):
thought about what I want to do,you know, all sorts of stuff.
I feel like I'm good at math andscience and stuff and like
things.
I feel like I've triedeverything, liked it all.
So it's hard to know like what Iwant to do.
So like maybe something where Ihelp people would be good.
So that's kind of what I thoughtabout medicine and like things
like that, that you know, coulddo research with that too, which
is fun, or just practice aboutlike that, or find some nice

(08:19):
practice and like some specialtywhere you can not have to work
all the time and be comfortablein life and do fun shit.
Or recently now I'm making dickjokes, sounds kind of fun too.
Like to watching that's kind ofinspiration.
I don't know, I don't reallyknow.
Maybe I'll try writing jokes.
I don't think like what is thecareer trajectory of like
stand-up look like?

(08:40):
How does that work?
I feel like I always hear thesepeople talk about like I've been
in there for like 10 years andI'm like, what does that mean?
I mean, goddamn, respect to thegrind for these people that make
it there, but like how does itwork?
Like, how do you like I have noidea like the actual mechanisms
of this?
I am curious though, it has beenkind of I've thoroughly enjoyed
like watching more comedy in thepast week, which is kind of

(09:02):
crazy to say.
So I've not really watched itthat much, but it's been pretty
entertaining.
So it makes me want to try now.
I don't know what to make jokesabout, but I feel like there's
all sorts of atrocious jokes Ialways want to make, you know.
You really can't do that on theday-to-day.
At least not, you know, not mostplaces.
Not unless you want to get justabsolutely like it.
But if you can do it on stageand that's chill, that'd be kind

(09:23):
of fun.
Like, no, I don't mean jokeswith ill will, it's just you
know funny to say out of pocketshit.
It's kind of fun, you know, youknow.
So maybe I'll look into that.
Uh this is kind of a pivot.
But it seems seems like it couldbe pretty cool.
I don't know.
I mean like I feel like I havethis issue though where I'm

(09:44):
like, wow, that sounded reallyfun for like a week.
I don't know if it lingers.
Although I like I bounce aroundso much and like get totally
flaky and don't want to committo stuff, but also like just
randomly commit to wayovercommit to something, like
buying turtles that'll live like200 years.
So I'm I'm an enigma.
I'm very inconsistent.
Nothing I say is thatconsistent.

(10:05):
Don't hold me to anything orexpect me not to be a hypocrite,
okay?
I do my best out here in thesestreets.
But I don't even know.
Like how like what is like yougo to open mics, but how's that
work?
Do you say like the same jokesor do you like freestyle every
time?
How's that work?
Because I think writing jokeswould be fun.
I should do that, start likewriting stuff down.

(10:25):
I mean, even I mean, I guess youget better at it.
That's kinda like what I'm doingwith this stuff.
I feel like it's fun to yap andmake stupid jokes on Instagram,
TikTok, whatever.
Even though it's probably prettybad quality what I'm making.
I figured, you know, get betterat it.
Not even if I look ridiculous,you know.

(10:46):
Gotta get them reps and takeyour licks.
Only one way.
So I finished the same thingwith comedy, but it's like, what
does it I don't even know?
How does that how's that waslike the the path work for that?
Like do you just show up andthen people be like, yo, he
funny, what like a what?
But now I I do kinda wanna feellike it'd be fun to go to Austin

(11:08):
and go perform for a minute.
Like probably a million otherpeople think.
So I have such original takes.
I don't know.
We'll see, we'll see.
Even with this, hopefully thisis just fun.
I've tried to think about thingswith this.
I mean hopefully these firstepisodes are just horseshit,
relatively.
I don't know what I want to dowith this.
I'm just trying to stayconsistent, hopefully get better

(11:30):
at you having on cam.
I think there's fun things thatwe do.
It'd be fun to well, I mean,there's so much stuff.
Hopefully this audio isn't tooshitty for y'all.
You boy should be getting somemics soon.
So hopefully that improves theexperience.
I mean, the visual experience isalways perfection, but I'm
getting a nicer setup so I'm notjust literally sitting on my

(11:53):
bedroom floor on the door, asyou can tell.
This immaculate view and setupquite professional.
I know, I know.
But doing something more.
I what I was also thinking,maybe this is super headass,
it'd be fun to just, you know,go outside, hike a mountain.
Although I feel like then youneed actually like better audio

(12:13):
equipment to actually record.
I don't know how bad this audiois or how much better it will be
with mics, but hopefully we'llget something soon.
Yeah, I'm trying to you knowpinch some pennies waiting for
some Black Friday.
So I'll see if I can hit a lickon some.
I'll try to read about it.
See what I need, see what Ineed, see what we can get
working up in here, get a wholestudio.

(12:35):
I don't even know what I want.
I don't know.
I mean, it would be cool tohave, but it's just you know,
for the love of the game at thismoment, I don't know that anyone
will see these, but it's fun toI mean, I'm at least learning
how to talk better.
I think, hopefully.
Maybe I'm this could be worsethough.
Maybe it's better, maybe it'sworse, because like I'm I'm

(12:56):
probably still semi, not sayingtotally like stream of
consciousness.
Some mind there'd be too muchfucked up shit for that, and
it'd just be totally incoherent.
But I'm like a little bit justloose and saying, like, whatever
the hell I'm gonna talk, what'sup, whatever's crossing my mind,
kind of.
So I don't know if it's betterto do more of that.
Like if that's gonna make memore likely to do it in person,
which probably not always a goodthing.
I already say too muchout-of-pocket shit sometimes in

(13:18):
person, and people just likelook at me.
Um hopefully they're not,hopefully it's entertaining.
But uh maybe I don't know ifthis will, you know, I'll get
out of my system here, or I'mjust gonna forget how to do it.
Because I'm spending more muchmore time talking than I would

(13:39):
otherwise.
I mean, doing this like talkingfor an hour straight, it's kind
of a long time.
It's kind of hard to do.
You know, like keep thingsgoing, keep things fluid, and uh
keep having subjects talk about.
I don't know how people do it.
I mean, I guess I see why peoplehave multiple people on a
podcast.
Helps to bounce back and forth.
It's kind of hard to steer thisshit by yourself.
Maybe it needs some, you know,get the gang in here.

(14:00):
It'd be fun to yap.
But then also, I don't know.
I don't know.
It's good practice to keepshitty talking, do lots of stuff
with it.
I don't really know what theformat of this would continue to
be.
I feel like I keep yapping aboutstories and random stuff.
Maybe I'll turn it.
No, I mean there's no comedypodcast, there's funny people on
cop podcasts that do comedy.

(14:21):
But now I have to keep thinkingabout it more.
I don't know what that'd be.
That'd be fun though.
I feel like I could probably beentertaining enough if I could
get up there and yap and saysome funny stuff, maybe.
I don't know.
You don't know until you try, soI should try it.

(14:43):
I just don't, you know, ifthere's any comedy pros out
there that wanna give me theirtwo cents, as they say.
I share some wisdom with a youngYN.
Oh my gosh, that's the funniestshit.
So my parents live in the theMidwest and in a very white

(15:04):
down, about as white as they canget, whiter than Wonder Bread.
And I think they she had a agroup of high school boys pull
up and chase these at thatclaiming they were they were
Hawaiians for Halloween, whichis pretty funny.
She had no idea what it meant.
They told her it was likerobbers.
So anyway, that's that's atangent.

(15:25):
But respect to them.
I thought that's prettyhysterical that these suburban
white kids claiming to beHawaiians and the the hood of
this rural white farmtown.
Oh gosh.
It makes me want to go, youknow, pair with the block, you
know.
Thing to sit in the wholehometown, you know.

(15:48):
Set this read straight.
Um But I thought about, I mean,I don't even know.
If I could do anything in theworld, like what would you want
to do?
If like anything for money.
Like, cause even like there'sthings like, you know, follow
your passion, maybe not always agood thing to do if you can't
make no money off of it.
But if you could, would that bethe best thing?

(16:09):
Or would it be like an L becauselike you like doing it?
And then all of a sudden youlike have to do it for some
bread for your daily bread, butto then that maybe take the joy
out of it.
I don't know.
It's like a tough thing to do,say.
I don't I feel like it's all thetoss-up.
I think there's so many things Ithought about, honestly.
Like I feel like probably likebeing like a some sports person

(16:32):
would be pretty sick.
I mean, well at least maybe forthe money.
I mean sports are fun, but thenalso the bag, crazy if I could
do that.
I don't know what sport.
I mean, I guess soccer, go playinside.
I mean that Ronaldo bag, crazy.
I don't even I don't even knowwhat you do with it.
I mean I guess the thing isthough, even that is like paling

(16:52):
in comparison to the top techbros, which is honestly kind of
spooky.
So they like take over theworld.
I don't know what's going onwith that.
A little bit concerning.
Oh well, LaDi Da.
It is what it is for the moment.
I don't know.
Um yeah, I mean I think myfavorite sports is to play or
going up.
I mean, like running.

(17:12):
So honestly, like if it was morelucrative, maybe track.
Although hockey was probably thefunnest to play.
That one I probably missed themost.
Kind of debated trying to playhockey again.
Although I'm like not certain Iwant to play with like former
like I mean I only played atlike high school on like a
shitty little like teamrelatively to people like that

(17:35):
really grind and play likehockey in college and through
it.
I think that's kind of what likesome of these leagues around
here are like I came across it'sone combined arena.
So guy like trying to recruitrecruit me to play hockey for
his like whatever communityteam, or I don't really know
what it is as I'm like walkingin a boot because I got a broken
foot walking my dog.

(17:56):
I don't even know why he just Imean he's friendly enough.
I don't even know why it'salready yappen to me.
Then it's like trying to recruitme into his team.
And I'm like, I mean, I have notplayed in like 10 years, which
is actually depressing to makeme like realize like how old I'm
getting.
I'm getting to real long status,it feels like feels crazy.
Um but I I did miss it a lot.

(18:16):
Like that's probably the funnestthing to play.
I think like running for me isprobably the most satisfying,
like the personal thing, likegetting faster and better, and
it's kind of like veryindividualistic.
Even the team things likecross-country, at least for me,
it was always prettyindividualized, like your own
progress.
But hockey is pretty fun becauseit's so fast in going around.
But I feel like at least in myhometown, it's like the old

(18:38):
dudes playing hockey for funthat got like physical and
scrappy, they'd be fighting andshit.
And like I really try to throwdown like that, you know.
I don't need to also don't needlike CTE, not for a bag.
That's like the unfortunatething.
There's always like the jokes oflike the the NFL players that
are like saying they could havemade it to the NBA if they

(18:58):
wanted to, and the guys callingthem out like, yeah, yeah,
right, bullshit.
There's no way you'll be gettingCTE for the baby bag where you
could be dunking for the superbag in the NBA.
What I thought I looked this uprecently.
It's like triple or quadruplethe annual salary of in the NBA
relative to like the NFL, whichis quite unfortunate, especially

(19:20):
when you consider that, youknow, you got a risk of going
crisp benois later on.
I don't know.
Maybe if you can like get in fora few years, get a good bag, and
you know, just like invest itand you know, sit pretty with
like a a couple M's racked upuntil you do an M.

(19:40):
Could be good.
I just feel like even in likehigh school and stuff, football.
I don't know.
I don't know what happens toyour brains.
I guess I don't think we know.
I would just be slightlyconcerned.
I was glad I I mean I missedhockey.
Others didn't like I didn't likeplaying it with the team is kind
of not the vibe uh for like thehigh school because I quit right

(20:00):
before like it was like thevarsity year, so I think it was
like 16 when I quit.
But it was like I think at thatpoint it's not like checking
where it is like you hit eachother for like two years because
I kept delaying it for kids.
So it was like way later thanleaving like football tackling.
But I don't know, I feel likethat could be worse, because
you're just when you're goinghard in like hockey and like
you're skating fast and hittingeach other.

(20:22):
I feel like you could really,you know, fuck yourself up.
I feel like even my even justlike your head, but also like
your neck and stuff.
I'm pretty sure like my one ofmy coaches like maybe broke his
neck and he's like a kidsomehow, like went headfirst
into the boards or shit likethat.
There's all sorts of freakstuff.
Or you got the stuff wherepeople take like a skate to the
neck.
I feel like that was always likethis like one horror video of

(20:44):
this gold you've got skated overonto the kid and you just see
like the gun blushing on theice.
That was like when, like, youknow, back in the days of
YouTube when there's just likeway more gory shit that you just
like come across.
But then that happened againlike recently, whatever that
story was, where some dude likeput a skate up and like split
the dude's neck.
Did he die?
I don't know.

(21:04):
I feel like he might have.
And I don't know.
I feel like the dude maybe gotlike charged with some sort of
crime for that.
I don't know.
But now like they finally madelike nightcards more of a thing.
Which is kind of crazy that it'slike became a thing after this
time.
I mean, I guess it makes sensethough, that if it can happen,
that you should you probablywant that, you know.

(21:25):
Against even if there's annoyingone less way to die, you know,
all sorts of dumb was uh in theworld, and you know try to take
a few off.
I don't know, there's like anunfortunate way to go.
I don't know what the dumbestis, but did you guys ever see
the I feel like there's what thehell is it a thousand ways to

(21:48):
die or something?
I remember there's like I don'tthink you ever watched it, but I
just remember people was talkingabout it and when I was like a
little kid about like thecraziest stuff.
And I don't know if it's realstories or just like theoretical
things about people had died incrazy ways and like these freak
accidents, but it's always kindof like spooky tales, kind of
creepy.
But yeah, not not the way I'mtrying to go out.

(22:09):
I mean, I want to go out withyour bang, you know, scatter my
ashes in a firework.
That'll be kind of tight.
I don't know what people dothat.
Like, why would you want, youknow, just scatter my ashes in
the ocean, put me in a fireworkand shoot me up off of Everest.
That'd be sick.
I don't know if that'd reallyignite very well or fly very

(22:30):
far.
I don't know about the the uhaeronautical engineering of a
firework and what would makethat go off, but that'd be kind
of fun.
Make it a funky shape.
Make me a big old dick firework.
Put that in the will.
I mean, what is like the thelimits of the shapes they can

(22:51):
make with a firework?
There's some pretty funkythings.
I think they could figure itout.
Because they do like hearts andthings.
I think.
I might be wrong.
Maybe you gotta do a fewfireworks.
Put me and the boys infireworks, we'll go.
Someone can be a ball, eachball, someone can be the shaft,

(23:12):
someone can be the head, someonecan be the come shot.
That's the way to go.
The whole the whole gang diestragically together, but ideally
not.
But yeah, no, hockey would befun.
I mean, basketball would be fun.
I mean I never really playedbasketball, but it was fun to
shoot a basketball in thebackyard.

(23:32):
We did have a hoop.
I don't know why.
I guess my sister playedbasketball for a little bit.
My mom played in high school,and she could always beat the
shit out of me if we played likepig or horse.
Because I I don't know actuallyany technique to basketball.
I never I really I don't think Iever played.
I maybe went to like onebasketball camp once I was like
eight or something.
I feel like I vaguely rememberthat.

(23:54):
But I don't really think so.
Anything beyond that.
And like that's maybe iffy.
That could just be likehallucination.
I mean, I'm just like imaginingthings.
But no, I don't I don't reallyremember.
Tennis is pretty fun though too.
I like that.
Oh, actually no.
In terms of sports, what I'dreally want to do is like F1.

(24:14):
That would be so sick.
Be like, except you gotta.
I mean, I guess not all of them,but some of them are like, yo,
you gotta be like have the crazybag family, you know.
Or I don't know, you lookthrough the years of all the
training or whatever, like theracing on the carts and things,
like how expensive that is.
Isn't it like one of those F1people?
Like the son of like the ownerof some big car company.

(24:38):
I don't actually know.
I don't really watch F1.
I just think it looks sick.
It'd be fun to drive a car fastfor millions of dollars.
I mean, I'd be down.
Lock me in.
I'll train, I'll start training,hopefully, that Gran Turismo
story to come true.
Although he didn't make an F1, Idon't know what he raced.
That was a pretty good movie.
It made me want to like downloadGrand Turismo of the game and
start racing.

(24:58):
Because I never really gottenthose racing games.
They're pretty hard.
I feel like the first time Iplayed them.
So like the only racing I'd donewas like GTA racing, which is
not at all realistic.
And that's like playing likeForza the first time.
I'm like, why the hell is thiscar so hard and steer?
But it could be fun.
Like I always tell those peoplewith playing like on the wheel
setup where you gotta do thatwith the brakes and stuff.

(25:18):
I'm like, dang, that looks kindof sick.
I kind of want to get one ofthose.
Then I like looked at the priceof them, and it's like a rack to
get the whole setup, like thewheel and the brakes.
They're all like a few hundredbucks each.
And I'm like, yeah, I don't knowif I want to drop that kind of
bag just to mm probably not buyit that much.
So I never did.
And maybe that's the reason I'llnever make it F1 tragic.

(25:40):
But that would that would becool.
It's like one of those thingsthat like, you know, even if
it's not they're all super rich,like it makes it harder to like
I guess like things likerunning.
If you if you win something likethat, that's something like
everyone can do, you know.
The more complicated the sport,like the less accessible it is.

(26:00):
Like how many people are like,if you're the best F1 driver in
the world, it doesn't I mean itsays some it does say a lot, but
not that much relative to likeyou were like, bro, the faster
like marathon or like Kipchogee,that's I don't it's kind of
unfathomable.
Or even just like sprinters,like you're saying below, like
everyone can sprint a hundredmeters, and like ain't no one

(26:21):
can sprint faster than him.
Like for F1, how many peopleeven know how to race a regular
race car, much less like F1?
So it's like it's a limitedpool, you ain't competing
against that many people.
Granted, they are good peoplethat can't actually compete.
But still.
RIP to the one dude that died,though.

(26:42):
I was kind of bummer.
Kelvin Kipkin, is that his name?
I don't know, some dude who likeran like the second fastest
marathon in like his first debutrace.
And but he like just like diedin a car accident.
That was sad.
That's kind of bummer.
I was hoping he'd like run crazymarathon times.
They need to get some Africansthough in like the ultra

(27:02):
distance events and make it likeless seem because like all those
records are like just crazywhite people, I feel like that
got too much time, and it's likethey are impressive, don't get
me wrong.
But like the caliber of the likethe marathon, like Kenyan times,
or I don't know if they're allKenyan or Ethiopian.
I don't want to say the wrongone, but I mean they're all good

(27:24):
to be honest.
Any of those, you know, Africandistance runner times, like
comparatively to any of theultra-marathon times, or like
night and day, like they couldif they actually wanted to, I
guess there's not like any notthat there's so much.
I mean, how much money is therein like distance running?
Not much relative to othersports, but especially ultra
marathons, like they're notrunning that, there ain't no bag
there.

(27:44):
So I'm sure like one of themcould like out of shape, out of
season, go break like everyrecord if they've really wanted
to in ultra, even though they'recrazy.
But like I feel like that's likeyou know, that's one of the
areas where a white boy canstill get a little motion, you
know.
In the ultra marathons wouldtell some, you know, elite
African distance runners just gojust smoke them all.

(28:07):
I'm pretty sure I feel like anyone of them can just go break
all of them.
It's just they don't really gotmuch incentive to.
But they'd be kind of sick tosee.
Like African David Goggins justgo.
I mean, well, I mean, that'smaybe problematic, but like, you

(28:27):
know, Kenyan David Goggins, Idon't know.
And like I don't know what therecords are for stuff.
I mean, it's still insane.
I don't get like some of thepeople though that like sleep
the the races where you are likeup for multiple days and like
take like two-minute naps.
It's just like actually a littlebit seems almost like a

(28:48):
psychological disorder you'regonna have at that point to
finish that.
I don't know.
Like, I mean I've kind of downtried some ultra marathons, but
I don't know about anythingbeyond 24 hours.
That seems a little bit a littlebit out there in terms of like
why, what's the point?
I mean I mean again like youwanna push your limits, but at
some point it's like I feel likeeveryone's races gotta be

(29:10):
fucking up your body so much.
And I'm trying to, you know.
I mean, I guess how recent likehow how long have people been
like really doing some of thosecrazy races?
Like how are the what is thecondition of the people who like
started racing these and beenracing them lots?
Like, are they like are theirjoints doing good when they're
like 60, 70 after running thatmuch?

(29:31):
If they are then shit, maybemaybe I'm tagging shit, but I
feel like it's gotta be hard oneverything when you're running
that kind of mileage.
I mean, I feel like when I'mrunning like nowhere near that,
like just in shape for likedriving cross-country in
college.
When I'm like the most in shape,that's when I was like just the
most in pain.
Like everything just kind ofhurts a little bit.

(29:51):
But you can, you know, put somespeedy times down.
You're like you got that enginetuned, but the frame is not in
great shape at a Fragile.
You're kind of riding the lineof things busting up.
So I just don't mean like me andyour body probably depth
somewhat, but that seems kind ofcrazy to me.
I want to know like what the ifthere are crazy like long-term

(30:11):
things if you just gonna totallyhave just need instant knee
replacement when you turn like40.
I mean, probably not that, but Iwould like to know.
Asking for a friend for myself.
I mean I've never done I mean arace like I've run like 30 miles
before.
Never I think that was thefarthest I've run.

(30:32):
And not in a race, but I feellike I'd kind of like to try to
run in 100.
I don't know when, but just goout there and do it.
Lock in.
I don't know.
Under 24 would be sick.
I don't.
Yeah.
I don't know any more than that.
I mean I'm trying to think oflike what the most outlandish

(30:52):
thing.
I maybe we would be in curiousto try some of those crazy
races, but I I don't know.
Like bad water, that one, sothat's kind of fun.
But as well, that one's like 100some.
Where you go from like thebottom of Death Valley to Mount
Whitney.
Don't go to the top of MountWhitney, you know.
That should be a real realbadwater.
Although it's like so hot in themiddle of Death Valley, like

(31:14):
they start at night.
Otherwise, like your shoes arelike could like melt if you
don't run the right spot.
Seems a little bit insane to me.
I don't know if I'd really needdown for that much suffering to
keep it to keep it 100, to keepit a buck.
Like MOM24 also sounds kind ofinteresting, but like 240 miles,
like what the hell?
That's like a whole week of yourlife of just suffering.

(31:36):
And I don't um I could do it.
I mean, like I believe if Ireally wanted to do something,
you know, I could do it.
But like, is it worth it?
I guess more one curious aboutlike, do you really need to
prove to do I really need toprove to myself that I can?
Is it worth like totallyobliterating my lower body?
Probably off the body too.

(31:57):
I mean, I feel like some of thatcan't be at the greatest, even
on like your heart.
Maybe it's better if it's likemore just like long, sustained,
then like harder.
Maybe a marathon is worse.
I feel like I've seen stuffwhere marathons can be hard on
your heart if you're reallyracing them.
So maybe if you're just kind oflollygagging up for like 200
miles, you can be decent.

(32:19):
But I don't know.
Don't I mean I'll probably dosome stuff when my legs are
finally all on one piece and I'ma little less broken, but we'll
see.
Soccer though, I think that's ifI are gonna be brought one
thing, they'll be one thing andstart throwing a soccer ball at
my kids out the wall and teachthem Arabic, go to school and

(32:41):
play for Saudi for whatever.
What do they call him?
Mr.
Everything, or is that what dothey call the shark tick guy,
Kevin O'Leary, Mr.
Oh, he's Mr.
Wonderful.
I don't know.
The Muhammad bin Sam and thePrince of Saudi, oh, get him to
throw like crazy bag at you togo play soccer.

(33:02):
It'd be fun to be good atsoccer.
I'll go to Brazil and I go trainthere.
Like the Dagastan soccer.
And I mean I played like socceras like legit growing up, maybe
like till I was like 10, where Ijust played occasionally in the
summer.
They tried again before Istarted running when I was like

(33:23):
13.
And it was it was rough.
It basically was running at thatpoint because we were terrible
and we had enough for everyoneon the field, and I played
midfield because that was justwhat they needed, and I'm like,
okay, sure, I don't know how toplay.
And that was basically we werejust like get obliterated and
never score, but I was just likemidfield.
I think that's the position.
I don't know, my soccer.

(33:44):
I basically like ran back andforth the field for like an
hour, and I was like not inshape at the time, and just like
be like dead by the end of it.
And I remember like at one pointthe coach wanted like wanted me
to like play, like keep awayfrom the ball.
I was like just trying to keepthe ball around.
I was trash.
100% honesty.
And like I was just trying tokick it around to him, and I

(34:04):
mean I wasn't good, and he waslike, Yeah, I'm honestly not
impressed.
I'm like, bruh, shut your bitchass up.
I mean, what did you expect?
I didn't know how to playsoccer.
Did you expect to be impressed?
I mean, he seemed coolotherwise, but I was like, bro,
why he why he clowning on melike this for no reason?
Uh dude had a weird ass name.

(34:26):
It was like Grady, Grady, Ithink.
It seemed nice enough other thanthat one time, and I'm like,
bro, I just got here.
I don't know, I barely know howto kick the ball.
It was fun though.
Some homies there, but I wasn'twasn't good at it.
But maybe, you know, fresh thewound, start kicking that soccer

(34:46):
ball and get real nice with it,bounce it like a Brazilian, like
a BBL.
Could have had a crazy bag,that'd be fun.
Lost my energy there.
Or even like, yo, like a be likea pop star, music star, rock
star, rap star.
Play rock star, that'd be fun.

(35:06):
I would I did recently get aguitar.
I've actually not at all learnedhow to play it at all.
I also got a piano recently.
I used to play in high school.
Stopped playing.
I mean, I played for likeprobably like six years.
I think it was like maybe like10-ish.
Maybe not even, maybe like fiveyears.
And then I stopped, like maybelike junior or sophomore year

(35:29):
high school.
I don't know.
But then I got a piano again,just kind of wanted to play.
I'd seen stuff.
I'd always watch these videos oflike something like real pros
play.
I'm like, dang, that'sinspiring.
And then shortly after that, Igot a guitar.
So like I really want to playguitar, that'd be kind of cool,
electric guitar.
And I finally, well, I was liketrying to get this plastic off

(35:49):
of it after I got it.
I got a good deal and some usedguitar.
It looks pretty sick.
Or it's like, what's the word?
Refurbished?
Pre-owned refurbished.
It was like a demo one, I think.
I think that's what it was.
So they just had out to you knowshow off.
But people didn't buy, but itwas like half the price.
I'm like, okay, sick.
That's a cool performer.
I like took out the plastic, butthen I had like these screws
that I had to like take out thatthe plastic was stuck around.

(36:12):
And then some part of the guitarlike just like caved in and fell
in and had to like reassemble itbecause I didn't know how to do
that.
But I was like nervous so Ididn't it's had like broken for
months, or it's not broken, butjust like not fully together.
I finally did redo that and itgot stuff to do it, but I
haven't had like the time to youknow sit down and properly own a
place.
How do you do that?
But being like a yellow modelingcrew, that'd be kind of sick.

(36:33):
That'd also be a fun job.
What else?
All sorts of stuff.
I mean, honestly, just going onlike you know, nature
adventures, that'd be sick.
Go doing just exploring stuff oranimal-related stuff, just
nature.
That's kind of what I think.
Like, if I you know start, youknow, uploading these pods from

(36:54):
randomized places on top of amountain.
That sounds kind of fun.
I might try that out sometime.
I think I do need like legitstuff set up.
Maybe once I'm better atyapping.
I don't know.
We'll see how this this crashout experience evolves.
Maybe we'll have more people inthe mix.
Maybe we'll start you knowbringing up people to yap with.
I think we've eventually got toget y'all, you know, anyone
listening, you know, send insome stuff to talk about.

(37:16):
We could talk about topicsyou'll bring up because I don't
even know what the hell to talkabout most of the time.
I'm gonna start yapping, andthen I'll like I don't even
remember where I started by thetime I end, that's how we're so
far off.
I mean, even if I have like aset topic, I can branch off for
too long and forget where I'mgoing.
I don't can't keep my stuffstraight.
It's a little bit too much of aI don't even know.

(37:38):
See there, I'm I'm losing it.
But I'm trying to think of thelogistics of that.
It'd be kind of cool.
If they like did it on like amountain and have a cool just
open mountain background.
I feel like it'd be it'd be kindof entertaining.
People I just don't know, liketry to find some secluded spots
that are cool.
If I'm trying to yap for an hourand people are hiking by, it

(38:02):
could be annoying if they'd likesay what's up.
Or I should need to get somebingoon bodyguards to keep the
smokes, keep the hops off theblock, off my tree, off my rock,
keep my peace in the woods whereI'm trying to yap to the yap to
the fans, to my my people, my Idon't know.
What what would I call the gang?

(38:23):
The Zaddies and Zadettes.
Uh the Zatriarchy.
Oh, that's a good one.
I like that.
Maybe that.
I don't know.
Whatever y'all want to be, hollaat me a boy, let me know.
Shout out.
Give me Yeah, be fun to havepeople send in stuff to talk
about any ideas and stuff.

(38:46):
That'd be kind of cool if we goto random places and just set up
shop, yeah, for a bit, aboutwhatever.
And say something cool.
I don't know.
I need a professional team,professional producers.
That'd be sick.
I don't even know.
So that's gonna be crazy.
But we can do it.
We can do some bootleg homemadeversion.

(39:08):
That'd be kind of fun.
Should we bring Trixie into themix?
Y'all want some co-host dogaction, the main bitch in the
fold?
That'd be kind of entertaining.
I mean, she probably wouldn'tsit still for that long,
independent.
She might be napping if she was,she'll stay, hang out.
She's not sometimes gets hot andlazy and wants to go stretch out

(39:30):
on the floor and go belly up.
I don't know.
I don't want to hit her with theHassan Piker tech, lock her up
in a square, and zap her if shemoves out of it.
Sorry, gang.
But I feel like it'd be fun.
I mean, I would definitely bringher on, like, you know, if we go
hike somewhere, post her up.
Get the the cash queen out here.

(39:51):
That's like, yeah, I think thesolid thing.
A solid plan for the future.
I don't know where the firstspot would be to go out in
nature.
I could just do it, like, youknow, even a park as a trial
run.
But I think on a mountaintop,that'd be kind of fun.
Not too crazy of a mountaintopwhere it gets too windy.
That's the problem.
Like, you just normally when youget onto like exposed things,

(40:14):
wind really whips.
I don't know what the physics ofthat are, what the
meteorological reason for thatis, but you get out there, wind
starts whipping.
You normally get surface though.
Crazy mountaintop live stream.
Maybe we'll start live streamingthat.
That'd be kind of cool.
I mean, I guess even if it'sjust hanging out there looking
ridiculous, it ain't whatever.

(40:36):
Can't worry about that too much.
It was like I think it was likeDDG talking about, you know,
just try and cheat out.
Like, don't worry about lookinglike a fool.
There's lots of people that aresuper cool, but broke boys.
And we can't we can't be endingup like that.

(40:57):
We can't be calling our ratslike that.
We gotta get that cheddar up, wegotta get that even more
emotion.
Although don't don't get mewrong, I got no shortage of
motion, but always gonna begritty for more.
Always never satisfied.
That's all I'll say.
Leave it at that.
But those were all sick ones.
I mean, they're just I don'tknow.

(41:20):
I don't know what sounds themost fun to me to do with my
life.
It's crazy though.
I feel like it's scary that timekeeps going fast.
I don't know.
What the hell?
I mean, I guess I'm like notthat young.
I mean not that old relatively.
Also not that young.
But I feel I feel like I'mgetting old.
I don't know how to do with mylife.
Like magical school sounds fun,but then it's like all sorts of

(41:42):
other stuff does too.
Like comedy does, actually.
I've never I feel like my momtold me about that once.
She's like, oh, you ever thoughtabout it?
I don't think she's entirely Idon't think she's like that
serious about it.
And it's like, no.
I didn't really think more ofit.
Now she'll maybe regret eversaying it.
But maybe we gotta pull up to akill Tony show gang, say what's
up, see if we can get it on abucket.

(42:03):
That would be pretty fun.
I don't even know what the Imean, it definitely just makes a
lot of bucket jokes.
I don't even know what to talkabout.
But we can make somethinghappen.
She's gonna believe allmentality.
I mean, I think that's truethough.
I mean, it won't uh necessarily,I mean, you know, just being

(42:24):
totally delusional isn't the guymaking things happen, but I feel
like it's also like aprerequisite.
You know, you gotta believe inyourself, gang.
I mean, because no one else isgonna do it for you, reality of
it.
And even if things aren't, youknow, perfect, you know, you've
got just got the confidencethat, you know, keep doing it
and you'll get better at it,just you know, do something, get

(42:44):
in the mix, put one foot infront of the other always, no
matter what, you know.
And stuff happens.
You gotta do it with something,try something, get out there.
That's what I'm doing here.
Staying stupid shit, lookinglike a fool.
Just kidding, like I'm lookingcrazy sick, got crazy drip,
crazy motion, hose banging atthe door, don't get it twisted.
But well, we'll see.

(43:06):
I don't like there's lots ofstuff to figure out.
We'll see.
I'm gonna try to stay diligentin this and to see how this life
trajectory develops.
Trying to think.
I mean, even having just like aI'm trying to think even if
like, yo, if I won a lottery,what I'd want to do.
That's like kind of crazy.
I mean, I guess that wouldprobably just want to like shack

(43:28):
up and some more.
I mean, I think I just want todo some school stuff, because I
do like learning a lot.
And like, I don't know.
It would be nice to have likethe pressure of like no
pressure.
Because you've got crazy racks,you know, hit a crazy powerball,
pull on a billy, and just chill.
But build like a ranch, havesome sick animals, and hang out.

(43:49):
That'd probably be sick or youknow, travel more.
I mean it'd be sick.
There's lots of cool stuff inthe world, even in the US too,
to check it all out.
It's a big world.
Just to do stuff.
Do cool stuff and vibe, liveeach day, you know, take it all
in.
Enjoy the little things too.

(44:09):
I mean, I don't think you've gotto have crazy racks to, you
know, vibe out and have a goodtime.
I mean, I think if you can'tvibe out and have a good time
with no racks, you know, bigbread ain't gonna make your life
better.
I think that's some real hoodwisdom.
That's some real GNGs, you know,on the house.
No charge for that, you know,golden drops of wisdom.

(44:34):
Yeah, I think I don't know.
Finding the spot where I wanna,you know, shack up, build a fort
ranch.
It kinda depends on animal lots,because I kinda want all sorts
of out of bucket shit.
I don't know what the most Imean, there's lots out of bucket
shit I want.
Crazy animals, elephant.
The thing is though, witheverything, it's like there's
only so much time in a day.
Like I'd want lots of animals,but then also at the same time I

(44:59):
would need like a zoo or like awhole team.
And because like you can'treally spend that much time
taking care of each of them ifyou have too many.
And then it's like you enjoythem each other, especially like
maybe pick a few.
So maybe just like a tiger and acrocodile.
That's reasonable, right?
Maybe an elephant, you know, youknow.
I would also like you know, havea ranch and have like an eagle,

(45:19):
go like falconing.
You know, if boys' trip toMongolia, I want to go like
climb a mountain and like be oneof those Mongolian eagle
hunters, climb up a cliff,snatch an egg, raise it a baby
eagle as your own, you know,your child, and go hunt some
foxes.
That'll be sick as shit,honestly.
I remember watching some movieabout that in like high school.
I'm like, how do I you know putmy name in the ring?

(45:42):
I want to go out there, go huntwith some eagles, raising them.
I mean, even sicker than aparrot.
I wonder, can you breed theparrot in an eagle?
Probably not.
I'd be down to find out, though.
Have like a colorful eagle,that'd be sick.
Have like a phoenix-looking birdthat just swoops down like a
colorful, like a raptor.
That'd be tough.

(46:02):
That'd be tough, though.
For real.
Probably not evolutionarilyfavorable, but that's why I
gotta take care of it, you know.
I don't know what's ethical.
You know, we don't have to gettoo philosophical here.
All sorts of crazy stuff, thosegenetic things and the ethics of
stuff and what even.
I don't know, all sorts of crazyquestions.

(46:24):
But those are the things.
Also, a runway on your privatething, have like a jet, a
helicopter.
I would like to know how to Iwant a pilot's license, that'd
be sick.
That's another thing that'd becool, other than F1, being like
a fighter jet pilot.
Maybe I don't necessarily needto be like a fighter jet.
Like, I don't really want to go,you know, fight, but like fly
one of those, like a blue angel.

(46:45):
Being a blue angel pilot, that'dbe that'd be shit.
I watched those once for thefirst time about a year or two
ago.
That was so cool.
I remember just like a lovedthem.
I don't even know how I got intothem as a child.
Like, I don't even know what Isaw.
I wasn't really even that intoplanes.
I mean, I thought planes werecool, but I don't know what
introduced me to blue angels.
I just knew they were somethingstunning show.
Probably just like DoomScrolling on YouTube as a child,

(47:08):
back before Doom Scrolling was athing, before they called it
that.
I feel like, you know.
I would like to know like howwhat my development would have
been like without the internet,like how much has shaped me as
an individual.
I mean, hell.
I feel like Call of Duty MW2lobbies as like an 11-year-old.

(47:29):
Actually, is it an 11-year-oldas a 10-year-old?
I don't even know.
I don't know what age it was,what year did that come out?
Besides the point, I feel likethat just totally desensitized
me to like any slur that anyonehas ever said.
Like I just turn on the Xbox andinstantly just hear like every
slur being shouted.
Honestly, if you think about it,despite that, Call of Duty

(47:52):
lobbies were probably one of theleast racist places in history.
There's no discriminationbecause every person of every
race got called every possibleslur.
And I don't know about y'all,but that kind of sounds like a
quality to me.
In a twisted way.
But it kind of, you know, Idon't know what that is.

(48:13):
I did the 6-7.
I love that when like I seepeople being like explaining the
meaning of it, and they saysomething very specific.
I have for every reason that'stotally blown up, even more so,
or at least like gotten to thepoint of like people asking,
like talking about itmainstream, and like when they

(48:34):
say what 6-7 means, somethingsuper distinctive.
I'm like, well, that's how Iknow you have no idea what the
fucking means.
I what is the I forget thesong's name or that rapper's
name, but that's besides thepoint.
Where were we at uh we'retalking about something?
Remember Blue Angels?
Oh, I was talking aboutdeveloping the internet.

(48:56):
Yeah.
It's kind of the Wild West.
I mean, even now though, I feellike it's I mean it's probably
worse.
I feel like some things wereprobably worse as a child, I
guess probably a little lesscentered back in the day, back
in the golden days, but now it'slike more addictive, you know?
And all the social media stuff.

(49:17):
Like I feel like when I waslittle little, like there wasn't
like social media like there isnowadays.
It was just like I don't know,looking at dumb YouTube videos.
Bro, coconut kids, that's gottabe like a new like zombie
epidemic.
That was like I want to knowlike what happens to those kids
that were like, you know, justthe iPad coconut growing up.

(49:37):
Like they actually turn that outat least on some monkeys, you
know, just to see if thosethings just become like
absolutely crazy things.
I don't it feel like it justcan't be good.
Even myself on my phone, I waslike, I feel like I start like
instant instinctively reach formy phone to like start
scrolling, and I'm like, this islike not good.

(49:59):
It's like kind of spooky howaddicting it is like how like I
feel like I'm actually like alittle crack core and I'm like
trying to like scroll for more,and I'm like, I have no like aim
for this, but like I just wantto do it.
So is that like how other drugsare or something?
I don't know.
It's not I feel like it's notgood.
And I'll just like go throw myphone away.
Like, get away from me, be gone,thought, and just you know,

(50:22):
throw that in.
And then go pick it up and startscrolling again.
It doesn't work very well.
Maybe I got one of those screentape.
I feel like I've thought aboutthose things.
I got those like I think there'slike one thing that looked kind
of interesting.
It's like a break where you tapyour phone to it, it like locks
it up for like productive stuff.
But I feel like that's I don'tknow.
Kind of gimmicky.

(50:43):
I mean it could be nice, but Ifeel like I just gotta like lock
in and like, you know, bedisciplined, not be like a total
TikTok fiend.
Although I never really was aTikTok fiend.
I don't know why.
I never really got it.
I mean I guess I did recently tostart posting stuff, but I never
like I just doom scroll to IGReels.
That was kind of my stuff.

(51:03):
I mean I was just, you know, Iguess staying loyal to the Zuck
for the time being.
So maybe he'd invite me to his,you know, Kauai Palace or his
bunker, whatever the hell he'sbuilding over there.
It is kinda eerie having abunker.
Who knows?
Who knows?
Who knows?
Hopefully everything is sunshineand rainbows.

(51:25):
We'll see what happens in thenext.
I feel like I feel like it'sgonna be crazy years, but I feel
like you always say that everyyear.
Like the future's gonna becrazy.
The state of the world is crazy.
So I feel like the state of theworld is always crazy.
And maybe we just don't think itis, you know.
Or we think it's always thecraziest we've been, but it's

(51:46):
always always been the craziest.
It's never like calm.
It's kind of what it feels likeonce you're like, you know, an
adult.
Maybe not.
I mean, I guess it's probablybeen particularly crazy years,
but has it just becomenormalized to me?
Like desensitized to thecraziness?
I don't know.
It's like the Call of Dutylobbies.

(52:08):
Bro, man.
Crazy times.
I remember those sometimes likeit's before I had a headset.
So when when you don't have aheadset and it just like blast
the game chat through the theTV, and then turn on the TV and
just be getting there'shorrendous things being yelled
at me.
Honestly, like half the words Ididn't even like because there's
some words that I didn't evenrealize there were slurs until

(52:31):
recently.
Like I knew this word and likesaid it, and then like I heard
it, and then I feel like, oh,you can't say that.
Or like I was talking aboutheard someone else say it.
And I was like, I don't evenknow that was like a slur.
I just like that was just likean Xbox insult.
Like I thought there's some newwords where you just said them
and you had absolutely no ideawhat it was referring to.
So it's like really like not atall racist in a way.

(52:55):
Like we don't even know what thehell it's referring to.
How's that even racist, youknow?
So I would be curious.
I don't know.
But we're here now.
Even if we got, you know, extraswag development from YouTube
and Call of Duty early days.

(53:17):
It obviously made a masterpiece.
Couldn't have done it bettermyself.
This thing is kind of itchy.
It's hot.
I don't know.
It's not like the well-placedeyes and mouth or the shasty are
I guess.
I don't think this istechnically a shifty, is it the
the shaisti just like the faceopen, the balaklava?

(53:40):
I don't want to say baklava.
Or the baklava, as DJ Khaledwould say.
That's always the funniest shit.
Him just mispronouncing words.
Although, how do they come upwith like names for stuff?
Like I guess I don't know wherebaklava or baklava originated,
but like I guess I always filmedas like Arabic.
But there's like no V in Arabic,so it's like baklava, like a wa.

(54:05):
That's also the thing about likecountry names, where they like
call it like a different name inother languages.
Like I guess like Turkeyrebranding is like Turkey or
however you say it.
Which I mean it makes sense.
Like that's how you say it, thenlike why like why is it
different for other countries?
Do you know?
It's like if you're John here,you're like you tell people the

(54:26):
name's John everywhere.
Like, I don't think there'speople like I mean I guess like
there are like the the that islike kind of the thing, like the
Asian names, I feel like wherethey take like the name like
Kevin, but they have somedifferent birth name.
And they're like you hear theysee finally like see their name,
their you know, their governmentideas on them, like, who the
hell are you?

(54:46):
Are you a spy for the CCP?
They're like, oh no, that's justno one can say this name here,
so I need to go back to Kevin.
So I guess maybe it's like that.
But it makes sense to you knowhave like how did that start?
Like Germany or Deutschland orAlemania.
Is that he said in Spanish?
I don't know.
I think so.
It's so rusty.

(55:06):
I would like to give put on mySpanish again.
I mean, not that I was thatgreat, but I'd like to be just
being like understanding thelanguage is fun.
I feel like I can understand it,but I cannot say it.
Like I could kind of well, I canunderstand reading it.
Hearing people talk it too fastfor me.
I feel a little bit, you know,not fully mentally capable when

(55:27):
I hear talking about it.
It's spoken fast.
Same with Arabic.
I need well I've gotten Rusty inArabic in a few months.
I haven't studied it.
That's like so much I feel likeI've forgotten.
So I need to get back on thequizlet grind, keep my move for
that up, remember the vocabular,you know, all the grammar, the
cloud.
That's pretty fun, you know.
I like learning languages.

(55:48):
And it's cool that you callplace.
It is like wild though, likewhen you like learn a language.
Like sometimes like seeing otherlanguages written, it looks like
some like magical spell or somelike mythical thing, like the
characters that you just don'trecognize.
And then you learn the languageand you see it, and then it's
like makes it like I don't know,it appears like totally
differently in your brain.
It's like kind of it kind ofloses, I mean it no, it's like

(56:10):
different.
I guess it's like it's like moreof like a happy familiar, like,
oh I know what that means.
But at the same time, it's likedoesn't have the same like
mysticism, it's like a littlebit like loses some novelty, but
you gain like the part whereit's cool.
It's like, oh no, not this isthe thing, which is kind of
cool.
Like all of a sudden, like, wow,I can't this mean something.
This is not just like scribbleson the wall.
And you know, hopefully, well, Idon't know.

(56:35):
I'd like to just you know learnmore languages, get better at
them, learn how to speak them.
I mean, I guess when I learnedlike the standard Arabic, didn't
really learn any like dialects,which I feel like are the only
useful thing.
That's what's the trippy thingabout Arabic.
Like, we learn like the standardArabic, which is like only the
news, and no one ever talks inthat, which is kind of a weird
thing.
They call it like a zombielanguage or something because

(56:57):
it's not at all like what peoplelike to use in the day-to-day,
it's only in like maybe somelike documents, like legal stuff
in the news.
So like I wonder what that'slike like is there like an
English equivalent or something?
What would it be like if we liketalked like old English on the
news?
Like how aren't thou on today'sbroadcast we shall discuss what

(57:21):
has happened on the I don'tknow, is that what it's like?
If you're if you speak Arabia,let us know.
That's the craziest thing.
I don't even know how differentthe dialects are.
Because I think they're like,well, at least some of them.
Because how similar are Spanishin different countries?
I don't know.

(57:46):
From why is Portuguesedifferent?
It's like is Portuguese legitjust Portugal and Brazil?
There's another crazy one, likethose got their own and their
whatever there.
I just need to look I mean Iguess if you'll get that
Neuralink instant neurosettastuff in the brain, that'd be
kind of cool.

(58:06):
But I mean I guess there'sprobably I don't know.
I don't know how great alanguage translation is, you
know.
At least like all the things.
I mean, I think ChatGPT waskinda good at it for some
things, at least giving me stuffthat I like want to help with
like translating things.
But not everything.
I mean I feel like there'snothing anything I could like

(58:26):
fully rely on.
Sometimes it'd be like a crutchto help me like figure out stuff
faster.
But I don't know.
Learning languages is prettycool.
And then just like when you cankind of talk to people in their
language is always fun.
Or like when you hear people andyou kind of know what they're
saying, like this dude, I thinkhe like was accidentally talking
to me in Arabic that moved in myapartment real like recently.

(58:50):
Like my dog uh was kind of likewanted to say hi to him and his
maybe his daughter, I don'tknow, but they're all scared of
the dog, and but he was like uhlike he uh or whatever, like the
word for like afraid or fear.
And I was like, oh yeah, yeah,yeah.
Then I'm like, oh wait, he Idon't even think he realized

(59:10):
like he's talking about Arabic,and he probably now thinks I had
no idea.
I should have been like, Yellowgirl, let's go to my dog, not
not to him.
But I never said I feel like thesometimes like I especially when
I did visit Morocco for a fewweeks, and then like I
definitely wanted to say likespeak Arabic to everyone, or

(59:30):
like especially when I saidthank you, like Shukaran, like I
always wanted to say that torandom people, and like I
definitely did.
No, I think I did this once atthe bank, and like I think I
don't know what I was doing, Ithink it's some deposit after
like I first like got back fromMorocco and I was like
depositing and I'm like Shukaranand whatever left, and then I'm
like she definitely gave me alook.
Especially things like that.

(59:51):
It reminded me this one time.
If y'all have ever been toSalton Straw, I'm a big fan of
their chocolate gooey brownieice cream, I believe is what it
was called.
Called, but for whatever reason,I swore that the name of the ice
cream flavor was Ooey Goooeychocolatey brownie or something,
like really kind of eccentric.
And I was like swearing to myfriends, I'm like, no, bro, it's

(01:00:12):
what was it called?
And he's like, No, it's not.
What are you talking about?
And I was like, Bet him,whatever.
I'm like, no, it definitely isbro.
I know what I'm talking about.
I I get it every time.
And we got finally got into thesolid drawing look at the menu.
I was like, oh shit, it's justlike chocolate gooey brownie.
And like I feel like I hadflashback for like order, like,
can I get that ooey doo gooeychocolatey goosy goody brownie?
And they just like looked at melike kind of funny, and that

(01:00:33):
probably that that checks out,that math adds up because I was
saying to them out of talkingshit.
It's like not even what it'scalled.
But I think like we were inHawaii together at one point,
like the year later, and I washonestly, I mean, I was I felt
redeemed, but it really wasn'tredemption.
There was just at Hawaii,there's like the ice cream chain
called Laperza that got somesome Hawaiianish flavors, and

(01:00:55):
there was one that was like UiGooey pineapple cake, and I was
like, hey, ooy gooey, there's itthere.
I'm not totally crazy, althoughI definitely had not seen that
before.
It's not even like I was gettingmixed up with that, so I
couldn't claim that.
So it wasn't really redemption,but I just, you know, was happy
to see someone had named an icecream flavor.
Oy gooey something, made me feelnot quite as loco, loco coco,

(01:01:19):
loco mococo.
Yeah, I don't even know.
I'm trying to think of like if Icould speak any Spanish other
than like Olacomostas, like thegrammar and like conjugation, I
think I'm totally chopped at.
It's crazy though, like learninglanguages.
Like when I first learnedArabic, I was like, when you
don't know words, I like justtry to reach for Spanish,

(01:01:39):
because like I knew that wasn'tEnglish.
And I try to use that, and likeI don't even know.
I'm trying to think of like Cfor yes and things like that.
Even though you knew Arabicwords, sometimes you just like
slip up and say those.
But then also that's where I gotlike better Arabic and studied
it for like a few years, thenit's like if I try to say
anything Spanish, now I knowlike I feel like I know like a

(01:02:01):
lot of Arabic where that justall fills in, and it's like
really hard to keep themstraight.
Because I did take Japanese fora year and then I get all mixed
up between lots of stuff,especially like the writing.
Japanese is kind of hard.
I don't know if I wanna I meanit's cool, but I didn't really
want to keep grinding that asmuch.
Arabic was a lot of fun.
I'd like to I mean I guess Itook all the classes that I

(01:02:22):
could at the college for themain stuff.
There's maybe some other sideclasses I'll keep taking over
the years.
But I think I just kinda likelock in on my own grind and I
don't know.
Is there any dialect I shouldlearn first again?
Anyone uh what I was saying,this one man you take a lunar
bia or lasha?

(01:02:43):
Uh fuck, I don't know.
Trying to remember the words fordialect.
But, you know, which one Ishould learn?
What's the basic to do?
I don't know which is most mostuseful.
I think like uh Egyptian ispretty popular.
Is that also speaking likeDubai?
Is that the same type of Arabic?
Masri or Masar.

(01:03:04):
I don't know.
But being able to like actuallyuse it more is fun.
But in the spots, I mean I'mdefinitely not like fluent by
any means.
I feel like I well right now Ifeel like I'm like don't know
shit, but I'd like to lock in.
I'd like to visit again, youknow, go back for summer
somewhere and like kinda it wascool like living with the

(01:03:26):
families there and you knowbeing really in it, really about
that life and walking throughthe markets every day.
I was pretty sick.
So I wanna I wanna go back anddefinitely wanna I mean even
anywhere, even like some arelike Spanish speaking to lock
in, I don't like Spanish.
I've got so many like wild hairsthat I wanna do.
Things I wanna do.

(01:03:47):
Life life to be lived, how toget there.
Bro, I just need some I guessyou know if I won crazy bread in
the lottery, I wouldn't I'd I'djust go do shit.
I think that's the moral of thestory.
It'd be cool to have a farm, butalso like all the travel stuff
is like not super compatiblewith having like you know a zoo.
Unless I had like a I mean Iguess if I had crazy bread, then
I could, you know, get some helpto you know, run the farm while

(01:04:10):
I'm gone.
That'd be kind of well why isthe phone getting so bright
there or TV?
I don't know if that's like aneffect.
It's like a divine intervention.
Maybe that's like telling me I'mgonna win the lottery and we're
gonna go on some sick adventuresand you know have a farm where
the phone buys are gonna run.
I don't actually know.

(01:04:30):
I'm maybe mistweaking becauselike my sunglasses are catching
a glare, but it looked like myphone was like flashing for
whatever reason.
Cute the sound effects.
But that's not anything we coulddo with the show.
Gotta maybe get some outdooradventures going on.
That'd be pretty sick.
Get some actual, you know,editing.
It's kind of fun to just, youknow, throw this shit up raw,

(01:04:52):
raw as well again.
Um but yeah, maybe some work onit.
And hopefully get some mics.
So I don't know.
I try to talk clearly, but Imean, and I'm just on my phone
on a tripod.
I don't even know why my mombought this tripod.
I think she just impulsivelybought like this jink little
tripod for selfies and gave itto me at one point for

(01:05:12):
something, and it's just beensitting until you know we got
this this whole production upand running.
So shout out to Mimadre.
Um I don't even remember how toexactly say mom in Arabic.
I was gonna say it.
Chi chi.
I didn't even know say JapaneseAfrica's so much.

(01:05:34):
Disappointing all my teachers,my senseis, ustafitis, as the
tetis, I say plural.
I don't know.
I think so.
Uh oh, but I'm definitelygetting ready to, you know, get
the shasty off.
I think that we lost the thepolpo of the baguette.
I mean, how did I don't evenknow.

(01:05:57):
How did no one hit a lick on theLouvre before if it was this
easy?
That's all I'm saying.
I guess the French are just um,you know, amateur burglars.
For the people who hit the lickeven French?
I mean, I'm not, but I know I'mtalking about the never mind.
I don't know.
I'm going all over.
Oh but I think I need to havefor the next the next lick if

(01:06:23):
there is another one.
I need to get a better uh betterdrift because this is not the
most comfortable one and it'skind of uh not like good
placement between my mouth andmy eyes.
Like I can either have maybejust have my nose out, but I
don't think I can talk verywell.
This looks so out of pocket.
Oh let's see, let's see whatthis looks like.

(01:06:46):
Okay, well, I guess like thiscould make no, this just looks
it looks kind of weird havingjust a nose out of the the
shysti, the ski mask.
Yeah, is there a name like a ahoodlingo name for the shysti
where it covers the like like awhole ski mask?
I don't think that's the this isa shaky name technically.
I'm I'm I'm rusty on all myurban dictionary terms, my

(01:07:11):
slang.
So much slang I gotta, you know,get up.
But I do know calc, so I'm up onsome of the slang, you know.
I know what a calc is.
Calculator chat, but that's kindof it.
I'm kind of slacking on therest.
Yeah, I don't think I knowanything.
Not along those lines.

(01:07:32):
This is how the look though.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Maybe the colorful one.
I think we do have a red,yellow, and green one somewhere.
Got the rasta ski mask.
Yeah, I don't think it's weirdthough.
That one actually is kind ofcomfy.
I need to start running that.
Sometimes in the cold, keep keepthe face warm.
Sometimes the winter wind reallybites.
So these are kind of these donot do keep uh keep the cheeks

(01:07:57):
toasty.
Do people actually ski in these?
Like they call them a ski mask,but do people wear them for
skiing?
Because I feel like it'd beterrifying seeing someone skiing
down in this.
Although I guess maybe if you'rewearing goggles too, that maybe
makes it take the edge off alittle bit.
I don't know.
I don't actually know how toski.
It was kind of fun, although I'mkind of afraid I'm just gonna
hit a tree.
I feel like I've got a knack forbeing clumsy like that.

(01:08:18):
So it's probably best that Ihaven't.
It's also kind of expensive.
That things like that, golf.
I've done scuba diving, soexpensive.
I can't afford to regularly dothat.
Um man is cold to shit hereanyway, so I don't entirely know
that I want to.
But, you know, I guess moralstory, I just gotta get my
cheddar up even higher.
I mean, we got enough cheddarand cheese to make grilled

(01:08:39):
cheeses, but we want that wholefountain fountain with some
toast.
Okay, gang, make that garlicbread dip.
We gotta gotta get in the lab,keep cooking up, and that's what
we're trying to do right here.
So um appreciate y'all fortuning in.
Spread the word that there's,you know, some absolute gems of
wisdom, life-changing advicehere.
Call your grandma, your uncle,your daddy, your mama, your

(01:09:00):
third cousin, your turtle, yourdog's nephew, and everything in
between.
Let them know that the bird isthe word and you can get it here
first.
Okay, gang.
And with that, I guess we'regonna we're gonna clock out for
the week and we'll catch younext time.
