Before we begin this week's episode,I just want to give a quick hands
up and apologize on my behalf formy audio quality. This past week's episode,
we were recording it had a lotof technical difficulties, so this week's
episode on my end is a littlebit scratchy and audio, but we hope
you still enjoy the episode. Thanksvery much, and let's get right into
(00:20):
it and don't forget to download theepisode. This is a this is editing
Guy, good Chow, Welcome uponit. Back to another episode of Dumb
and Delicious Podcast hosted by Guy Paratryand Jack Hamilton. My name is Guy,
my name is Jack, and that'swhat it does. It feels like
(00:45):
it's been for like two weeks.Yeah, we had so much audience engagement
from the last episode. You guyssmashed fifty downloads, which is a lot
since, like i'd that's the mostdownlows we've had in a single episode in
one week in like four to sixmonths. So absolutely nutty. That is
(01:08):
ridiculous. Y'all smashed it. Thankyou very much for sharing it and listening
and downloading it and all that.Shouts out to our audience. Ball through
our last episode, our friends,our friends, our tight family circle.
I was gonna say, getting backin the swing of things with school has
been fucking Taylor, do it again. I gotta put this down. So,
(01:30):
guys, I like, whenever Ispeak, I have to be doing
something with my hands, and likethere are certain things on my desk that
if I play with them while we'rerecording, it comes up on the audio.
And I just picked up the pause, like the the most noisy one
I have on my desk, playthe cloth or something. So I just
put it down. I just putit down, and now I gotta find
something. I'm just gonna play withthe pencil this. I just like roll
(01:53):
it back and forth in my hands. I don't know. I just enjoy
that is. But I should geta fidget too. I don't have any.
I have like a like a puzzlecube thing, but it makes like
a you guys can hear that.It makes like a like a clack dy
sound. I'm just gonna play inthe pencil. Yeah, I get back.
It's anything in school has been fuckingbrutal, dude. Oh my god,
(02:13):
I completely forgot how hard it is. Like it's a this is so
last week I had a half week. I started on Thursday. This week,
man, oh my god, fullweek of school. First full week
of school. I'm not even doneyet. Fucked me up, dude,
so much shit to do calling me? How have you been. I've been
good recently. I have been focusing. So I felt weird because for the
(02:38):
first time in like eighteen years ofmy life, I'm not going back to
school like officially or formally full time. So it's a bit weird. It's
been odd. And so instead whatI've been doing is obviously I'm still working,
but instead of focusing on the negativeside aspect of I'm not going back
(02:59):
to school, I missed that lifea little bit, and focusing more on
Okay, why do I feel thisway? And how can I help myself?
And so I've been doing a lotof self more self care than usual,
more lonely time, more isolation,more stepping back, and I guess
(03:21):
smelling the roses, or just realizinghow peaceful still the world can be when
you just relax and try to releaseany tension possible, like you don't have
a million things on the exactly likethe other day. So every day I
go to work, I take thetrain, and so the past two months
three months. Actually now I've beenreading books, different books. As my
(03:45):
third book, I'm now on thisone's called how to Be a Badass Something
Something, how to be a Badassand something something something something by Jen's Scenaro.
Since SINCEO, you don't need abook like that, bro, you
got figured out and it's good.I mean, like I do. But
I'll be honest, I thought Ilost my passion for reading because I used
(04:09):
to read tons of novels as akid. But I've come to realize that
I actually enjoy self help books.I enjoy these like lifestyle books like to
me, they're very nice because thereare a reminder of a how much you
can improve on and be I mightbe reading something that I go, oh,
I'm already doing that, and thenit's more of like a pat on
the back and like reminder that you'redoing well, whether it's a thing to
(04:32):
learn from or I'm already learning itand I'm already ahead of the game,
which is a pat on the back. So regardless, it's positive and yeah,
so reading that one so far,I usually read it all the time
on the train like to there towork and sometimes on the way back.
And I make it a rule formyself that I have to read a chapter
or ten to twenty pages a day. So but yesterday was the first day
(04:57):
in like a month or two whereI actually didn't I didn't have work,
actually took a sick day off.I'm just getting I'm just getting over a
cold right now. But so Ican hear it. You're always hear sound
congest. Yeah, a little,a little lazily, but yeah, yeah,
I just I sat in my backyard, I had a glass of water.
(05:18):
I was obviously I had a cold. It was a little chily outside,
so I put on my nice bodyand then I fucking read fifteen twenty
pages. And then I was like, wow, it's peaceful, it's nice
outside. And also sometimes I'll onthe trend or most often i'll listen to
music like classical or instrumental music whilei'm reading. It helps me focused because
on the train there's so many differentattractions, but because like the deck,
(05:40):
the backyard was so still and peaceful, and there's a few people on and
off that come through the trails,but you know, it was it was
nice to have most of the time, it's pretty yeah, nice to have
that like serene and environment. Soyeah, I've been doing a lot of
self more more self care than usualrecently, felt a little existential two weeks
ago. But yeah, and again, thank you so much everyone for the
(06:02):
last episode that we posted. Itwas a huge success. I guess that's
a reminder or heads up till Jackand I that you guys really love to
hear us drunk on a podcast.But still like we were both pretty pretty
off the loop, so it willdo more of those. That was that
was fun. We definitely got todo more of those. And like because
like typically guy Kano and I recordonline just like convenience, tight schedules,
(06:27):
but when we record in person,just the energy is so much more powerful.
I guess I don't know, Ireally know how to say. It's
strong, more enthusiastic. It's morelike a snappy, more like elastic man
like pop like palm kind of thing. Yeah, yes, yeah, and
then that mixed with alcohol very butdrink responsibly, responsibly, feeling very body
(06:48):
to. So you were just talkingabout your book there, and I'm not
gonna lie. That just made mehad a realization that I haven't read a
nonfiction book and probably eight our nineyears really scenes high. Yeah, probably
great time every book I read islike science fiction. But I did get
one. I actually know. Ifinished. I'm saying finished for the first
(07:12):
time in a long time, thoughI had picked up to call me an
idiot. Fiction is real, nonfiction is real. Fiction is like fake
like yeah, like the storytelling Lordrings as a fiction. Nonfiction is like
a biography on like Joe Biden orsomething. So I said that backs I've
exclusively read fiction for the past eightyears. So actually technically on right,
(07:33):
because I said, you said youhave the read a nonfiction book in eight
or nine years or whatever, I'veonly read fiction. Fake thake of fiction.
Fake ya yes, yes, okay, I'm sucking, I'm talking,
and I'm confusing the pucket myself.Bro like today for school, man,
I'm just Calculus killed me. Mybrain's on fire right now. Yeah,
(07:54):
So I picked up two nonfiction booksfor the first time in a very long
time. I'm not a gambler.I'm not I'm not a I'm not canonia
gambling. I think it is verybad for a lot of people. People
there's a lot of money. Butmy cousin gave me a book on poker
about one of the best written byone of the best poker players in the
world. And I was like,I because typically when would play poker,
(08:16):
we're like card games my cottage orwith my family or my homies are playing
blackjack or something or like I,I would say eighty percent of the time
performed very well, usually sweep prettyhard. And everyone just likes to say
I cheat, although I don't.I used to cheat a lot board games
when I was younger, not anymore. The only game I cheated now is
who Know, because fucking wow.So I was talking about that and he's
(08:39):
like, oh, if you're likeinto that kind of thing, Like,
here's this book, so give methis book about written by one of the
best pokers players in the world.And it's like fucking eight hundred pages long.
It's a thick ass book. ButI only read the section on like
black jack and No Limit Hold Them, which you know, the most played
poker game in the world, NoLimit Hold Them. So that was interesting
to read a book that's actually real. That kind of put me back in
(09:01):
reality, I guess. And thenmy dad gave me this book called Never
Split the Difference, and this isactually, I guess, not not necessarily
self help. That sounds like afinancing book close. It's a negotiating book.
Interesting, So it's a book thatteach teaches you how to negotiate with
people, mechanics and negotiating and conversation, basically how to get what you want
(09:22):
out of conversation. And it's writtenby the lead hostage negotiator for the CIA
wailing former or like still the leadlike are they allowed to release information like
that former he's no longer no longerbut was for several for like eighteen years.
Crazy. Yeah, I've never splitthe difference, That's what he says
(09:46):
in the book. I'm pretty sure. I don't know. I haven't picked
it up in a minute. Igot like a few I got like one
hundred and fifty pages in and thenI kind of just, you know,
school picked up, and I haven'tbeen able to get back into it.
But that's, like I said,first nonfiction book I'm actually diving into that
actually has like no, it doesn'tfollow a story. It's basically this guy
explaining his history, what he does, how he doesn't. Yeah, and
it is really fucking cool because itI honestly have been like subconsciously using things
(10:13):
I picked up from this book inconversation oh, pretty interesting. My dad
gave it to me, and mydad actually used this book to convince my
mom to let him kind of modehis truck a little more. So it's
pretty because he's very anti, veryanti like redneck chuck. My dad's got
this white pickup that it got forhis birthday like two years ago, three
(10:33):
years ago, and he just touchedit because he's scared. He's not scared
to break the warranty he doesn't getfuck, but because my mom doesn't want
mods on it. So he waslike, how loud or something. He
was like. She was like,oh, bro, it's so loud.
Now it's awesome driving a monster truck. Literally, dude, my dad got
them. He saw he got thetires bumped out so like they used to
(10:54):
sit in the wheel well Now theyextend out of the wheel wells like a
loud, loud ass fucking exhaust.Now, dude, oh my god,
it's a beast. But basically heused this book to get anvince my mom
to get on board with him doingall that. Wow, So I'm reading
it's honestly really good if you justwant to learn, like a book about
tricks of conversation and just like youknow, deal breaking negotiating kind of thing.
(11:16):
Highly recommend Never Split the Difference byChris Boss. It is very very
interesting. Think that's something I wasinterested in too, because it has to
do with like the psychological factors andhuman conversation. Like that's one thing as
want. Like It's like the reasonI like these lifestyle and solve oup books
is because it has to do it'spsychologically how we act and like why we
(11:37):
do the things we do. Ithink that's why I like it so much.
So something like that, actually i'dprobably get into. I started listening
to a podcast recently or that's likefollowing a few of these like different podcasts
that have to do with how tobe more professional, how to like sales
wise marketing. Like again I'm notat the moment a big person on sales
marketing, but it's more of thebehind the scenes and how well they do.
(12:03):
It's what they say, it's howthey engage, it's how they can
turn over a person that goes no, i'm good, I'm good too.
Actually, let me get back toyou on that or like whatever about in
terms of selling a products, AndI thought that was it's been really interesting.
So yeah, that's been that's inrocking so far, that's a ball
and booling. I'm about to say, once I'm done the book, I
(12:24):
mean, I'll give it to youone and check it out, because I
know it something you'd be definitely interestedin. It's only like two hundred and
fifty pages, Like, it's notit's not like something that's not it's not
it's not a long read, butit's it's good. Yeah. Have you
ever listened listen to My Goodness?Have you ever read the book The Subtle
Art. I'm not giving a fuck. No, my dad has it,
but I've never read. I wouldhighly recommend that one, especially if you
(12:46):
kind of like these psychological, fuckinglike books about how people engage each other.
Like, I don't know, Ithink it's also that one specifically,
that was the first one I've everread, and the reason I like it
so much was because of how candidthe author, Mark Manson is. I
guess Mark Manson about how he's justvulnerable and how he literally swears in his
(13:09):
book. He's like, oh,like every other sentence it's saying the efforts,
he's saying fuck this, and likeI'll give a fucking this and blah,
blah blah whatever. Like I thinkthat would like ground to me a
lot into being more intrigued and moreengaged with his book and his writing.
So that's why I think that's thatwas. That was a book that set
it off for me. But Ihighly highly highly recommend that one. That
(13:30):
one. You could honestly, ifI read it back, I could probably
read it in like a few days. But that took me. That one,
because it was my first one,took me a few months I actually
read because it was on and offand I want to read. I wanted
to read, you know, Sogetting back into like, I know it
sounds stupid. I just dropped Iwas playing with an earring. I just
moved on from a pencil to anearring and I just dropped my earring.
(13:50):
And I have no idea where.Uh okay, I'll look for it after
the episode never mind something fuck gotit? Yeah, I was gonna say,
like I always that's gonna I'd stupidto say. But getting back into
reading after not like picking up andreading a personal book for a long time,
it's kind of hard to Like,It's not hard, not that it's
hard to read. It's not thatit's hard to understand the book. It's
(14:11):
hard to get back into the habitof just opening a book on your free
time, you know what I mean, Because like I haven't app like before
these two books that I read,of the Poker and the Negotiating one,
I read maybe like half a booksummer because like I just forget no crack
up in a book I want toread, just want to read some sound
superesting. I read like half ofit and then I was like read half
of it over the spending like threemonths, and then a school will start
(14:33):
and then I was like close thebook and forget about the next summer,
you know what I mean. Bynext summer, I forgot stories. I
have to restart it. But yeah, no, I always wanted to kind
of get into self help books becauselike I literally do not even know how
to approach self approach self help,Like I kind of just do my own
thing and think whatever's working in myhead is working, which yeah, and
(14:54):
I feel like that's something I coulddefinitely benefit from one hundred percent. But
my in Dorc simply will not letme because I'll walk into a room there's
two bookshelves, one full of selfhelp and one full of sci fi and
like automatically, it's gonna go forthe sci fi books, even if you
blindfold me and put me in thisroom and tell me to reach forward to
(15:16):
grab a books. The Last Spaceshipsand Aliens just like calls to me,
and I was like, reach out, just pull that one out by chance,
you know what I mean, Likejust I don't know. I have
to have a big interest in somethingto read it, or I have to
have a reason to read. It'sa reason to read. It would be
like school, but like big interestis just like sucking space exploration. Shut
(15:37):
me up, dude. Yep,maybe possibly will, but it's completely fucking
impossible. This shit I read islike it's ridiculous. Actually no, there's
two books I read recently by thesame I would say, Arthur same author.
His names Peter Peter Watts, andhe just writes very interesting sci fi
novels. Obviously, I've spoken aboutone of them before on the podcast.
(16:00):
It's called Blindsight. And this guyjust he approaches science fiction from a realistic
standpoint. So it's really it's reallyreally cool how he does it because like
being someone in biology, I'm notgassing myself up here, but anyone in
a four year degree of anything cansay they have ext not extensive knowledge,
but you know, good knowledge ofwhatever the fuck they took in school.
(16:22):
I'm taking a biospecialist program, soI'd like to think I have fairly good
knowledge on biology. So it's veryinteresting to see this guy use stuff I
learned in school and like kind oflike niche. I guess, I don't
know you can say that niche biologicalconcepts that don't really aren't talked about much
of it bring him up and justlike use them to explain something in his
book and reading something in his bookas opposed to why it works. So
(16:44):
that's that like interested in loving thatshit. A little fun fact person that
goes, h, did you knowthis? But yeah, because like reading
the book, it's like, oh, vampire, are vampire scared angle or
scared acrosses? Well, they're notscared acrosses. They're good at nine degree
angles because you know, throughout evolution, nine agree angles never naturally occurred in
nature. So when a vampire throat, its evolution would encounter a ninety degree
(17:06):
angle in nature, it would likeshort circuit it's brain and make it freak
out and across is four right oracross has twelve right angles, so it's
going to fuck it up pretty badif it seems across four, five,
six, seven, eight, nine, ten, Yeah, right, twelve,
I count it. That's I don'tknow if you'll feel come through on
my audio, but I would likeone, two, three, four angles
(17:26):
well right basically. And then theyfreak out. That's actually like more like
one of the theories or more ofthe things that they think that why vampires
actually hated crosses was ninety degrees.That's just what the guy says in the
book to explain vampires. Oh nice, Like it's pretty pretty interesting. And
it's like vampires can think beyond thethird dimension, like they can think in
(17:47):
for the fourth dimension. So vampiresare important in like highly important situations because
if Guytano and I think a B, a vampire will think A plus B
eight times B divided by B,all right instantaneously, So I can just
think of all these things really quickly. That's why they reportant of the Okay,
I'm not I'm talking about this isliterally the fourth time I've explained this
(18:10):
exact same thing on the podcast.But I just think it's super fun cool,
So britty britty down pretty nice myphone. I also like also since
uh, since we last recorded,I have I can't remember I talked about
it last podcast or not, butI got to no, I think it
was that day of the recording.I got two gigs. I got an
active gig for a social media socialmedia influencer, and I also got a
(18:36):
modeling gig, my first official modelinggig for an ebike company. That was
fucking awesome. No way for anebike company. Two of all the ebike
machine or e scooter machine. Ithought it was so funny. But yeah,
so you're gonna see my face Almazonsoon. Yeah, that's hilarious,
h for for an ebike. I'mgonna go in comment leave review saying,
(18:59):
like the guy, just the guymodeling and showing off the spike alone made
me want it's so bad show.It looked so cool with him riding and
I just got home on I wantto be like the photographer. And it's
obviously like action shots with the bike, with the bikes and everything, so
uh yeah, it was like ina studio. It was like I thought
it was media studio. It turnedout to that thing. Those things fucking
fly. Holy shit, that isso cool. What what was gonna say?
(19:25):
The photographer loved me because I gavehim two different variations on like other
models. I'd be like, Ilike, he'd have to ask other models
to do like and we're dynamic,like pose but also have to pose them
versus me. I All he saidwas just saying dynamic, and I'd be
like, oh, he goes great, I love that. And then he's
like, just do like a morecasual one, and I would do casual.
So it's a casual and dynamic Cand D right, uh C and
(19:48):
d C and then the d uhand so yeah, Who's was that?
Damn? I think Dann? YeahDan, it was Dan, So I
guess shout out to Dan. Idon't know. I know there's lacken years
in the future. It's gonna be, like I can know, it's gonna
be like, oh, eating thenew fucking Junior Chicken three it's come out
of and it's gonna be like inventingthe new Boeing five hundred, five thousand
(20:17):
whatever with the bazillion seats, andit's like guy cannot fly in the plane
like him smiling, you know,and I'm sucking this guy everywhere. It'd
be so weird if like models werelike actors and like really popular ones got
like picked for everything, so likeyou would see like I don't know who
the famous model. I don't knowany models. I don't know any models.
But yes, but but you arekind of right though, Like some
(20:37):
models can have such a high statusin class that they are considered popular and
they're in everything. It's just youdon't see it as often because it's the
stars. It's the actors that getmore of the attention VHA. Like,
like I think there's gotta be somethere's something modeling awards out there, but
no one knows what that is.No one really pays attention to that everon
won't pay attention to though, likethe Tony's, the Oscars, things like
that, and it's like like literally, like we just said, I cannot
(21:00):
think of anything exactly. So yeah, the model the gig was went great.
I got paid for that too,for joy money as well. So
huh do you go for a joyright Let you go for a joy right
on? Yeah, a little bitat the end it was great. Yeah.
Yeah, oh my god, dude, I'm getting hyped. Probably that
is that is probably I probably flewa good, good two kilometers one kilometer
away, one kilometer back, becausethey were like, oh the like if
(21:22):
the we're going groning in a shootthis one model. And I was like,
okay, it sounds good, Likedo you like join? I said
tighter, like could I go fora little joy rat And there's like yeah,
just don't go too far. I'mlike, let's go. I fucking
flew down the street and back.That is so cool. I didn't want
at all. I just let thefucking machine do the work. So that
(21:44):
is so cool. Wait, howwhat's the what's the acting gig? Or
can you not leak information on theacting gig? And I gotta talk about
the acting gig was a social mediacreator for what was his name, matt
Matthew Matthew. I can't remes thefull Instagram handle for him, but Matthew.
He does social media PSAs regarding bullyingand things like that. So unfortunately,
(22:10):
the obviously obviously they're staged, butyou'll have a scenario, and the
scenario that day was these two girlswere bullying this little kid and like throwing
his backpack around, and then eachof the actors had a chance to have
their take, go in and intyour interfere of the situation and yeah,
So I thought mine was really welldone. I felt confident doing it so
(22:34):
much that I was excited, soexcited from it. So I asked the
the the guy had guys, like, can I do another take? He's
like, oh, jump like thelast one. I'm like, you know,
I liked it. I just wantto do another one, can do
a different version kind of thing.He's like, I might do with time
for that. He goes sure,I'm like, all right, awesome.
So we did that and the kidseven commented that I was working with.
(22:56):
We're all like, we're like thatthought really good, Like that was awesome
like this and uh yeah, sothat was a lot of fun. Uh
dude, that's so cool. Yeah, Like I got paid for that as
well, and yeah, that's mostSo what's happened with me recently? Oh?
I also went to Waterloo to Tristanfor the weekend last weekend, which
(23:17):
is great. I went on forI went Friday and then got back Sunday
morning or Sunday afternoon. Friday.All we did was well Friday and Saturday.
Tristan introduced me something called frisbee gulf, which is kind of awesome.
Dude. We have always wanted tobelieve frisbee go, Oh my god,
but I'd be so bad. I'mnot gonna lie. It's a it's a
lot of fun. Oh it's likethe first time. I think actually I
(23:38):
did pretty good my first time.But the first time we went was on
the Friday, and we walked overand we get there and everything and we're
laughing and throwing the mist round.I think it was the the first or
second day that Tristan accidentally threw asthere's a pond near on this, on
this field or on this on thecourse, and Tristan just goes, whatever
you do, don't throw the frisbeein the pond, because like it's disgusting
(24:02):
and like I've done it before andit sucks to retrieve it. Like,
no worries, no worries. SoI throw mine first, and I'm like,
oh, it's decent throw. Andthen Tristan throws his after, and
lo and behold, he tossed itright in almost the smack middle of the
pond, and so he in orderto retrieve it, he had to take
off his socks, his shoes inhis socks, go barefoot into this pond
(24:27):
that probably a thousand geese I've shippedin, like to the point where every
time he took a step into thepond it just went black almost like Yeah,
so I had a video of that, and he is fucking disgusting anyways
to retrieve the disk and yeah,but it was a lot of fun.
(24:47):
I'll du that like that. Thatimage of in my head is absolutely foul
of Triss and marching through this pondand just sinking in the geese ship.
Yeah, and it's sled. Itwas sludgy. It was probably a good
like three or four inches like deepthat he was in the sludge. The
pond itself was about probe two feethigh. But yeah, and uh yeah
(25:07):
the Friday we went out drinking alot of fun. Saturday night we went
to a place called Phills, which, oh no, dude, that place
is a fucking reputation. It's greasyas fuck. Yeah, yeah, and
so funny enough, Tristan and Iboth got sick come two days after on
the Monday. So Maddie, Tristan'sgirlfriend, was like, you guys got
(25:30):
pills flu, and so I thinkwe both got Yeah, we definitely contracted
the pills flu because we both hadthe same symptoms, both like in like
disarray, and it was yeah,again, I'm recovering. I think by
tomorrow I should be fine. Butdamn I got six sick to the point
where I called in for the likeone of the first times, first few
times ever to work, Like Idon't ever call into work. This was
(25:53):
like, okay, a few pillsif you like, a few like algy
pills or fucking cold hills and thetown all like that was not going to
do it be enough. So mydad actually said I'm proud of you for
not going in, and I'm like, thank you. I appreciate that,
but yeah, I don't. Idon't like calling it to work effort of
like, bro, i'd say Idon't take sick days. I don't know
(26:17):
to get paid. I'd be takingevery six day, bro, and now
and now because every now, becauseI did take the sick day like I
took yesterday off, it feels weirdto me. It still feels about Tuesday
or Wednesday. It doesn't feel likea Thursday because I don't have that.
I actually work doubles on a Wednesday. So I'm like, I'm ready to
go, but now it's I don'tknow, it's a bit off putting,
but fuck it, we ball,fucking we ball. That's dope, dude.
(26:40):
I mean not dope that you gotsick, but like your dad was
like, congrats, I'm not goinginto work, like I know. That's
where I was like, wow,he's really telling me. And then he
told me like an hour later thatyou know, you need to like slow
down and like like you're you're alwaysgoing and going and going and going,
and I don't see the breaks beingused too often. It's always acceleration.
And I'm like, well, Ijust stay busy. I like to work
(27:02):
and yeah, yah yah. Andthen like literally ten minutes after you said
that, I picked up another shiftbecause I didn't go to work on Wednesday
and I gotta continue with the incomeand I got a lot of things to
save up for and I got myreal estate courses and start saying, which
I'm starting actually tomorrow, which I'mvery excited for. Over excited. I
(27:22):
was nervous at first. I wasexcited. But it's a pay as you
go. It's on a lump sum, which is I think is a benefit.
So that's I've never heard of apay as you go course, well,
like each course technically in university it'suh, it's okay, how to
explain. You pay per course,so technically it's a pay as you go,
but you're not going to take onecourse at a time in university.
(27:45):
You'll take like fucking five or six. That's why you go and get into
the thousands of dollars and you paythat in a lump sum. Right,
it's all in like a on anonline student statement. So I guess that
you're taking like I guess, fivereal estate courses at once, and you're
just paying it all out front.But it's literally the same thing. Yeah,
yeah, but but the thing isonlike other programs or universities, this
(28:07):
one is pay as you go asand like you can't unlock or can't pay
for the next one until you finishthe prior one, the previous one.
Oh so it's like taking first year, second year, third year, fourth
year calculus in order to in orderto get the second one, you got
to pay and take the first kindof yeah, like I haven't take the
prerequisites in order to unlock and thenpay for the second and third and fourth
(28:27):
and fifth and sixth and whatever.Yeah, right, so yeah, it's
cool though. Good Keep grinding forthat, keep grinding for other things.
Keep got it for the future.Wake up, guy, do it for
the family. Wake up some otherdays. Guy do for the future.
Family. Guy do it for thefuture, kids, the future wife,
all that shit. The busiest guyin the world somehow gets even more busy.
(28:49):
Yeah, yeah, it's gonna beit. It's like you're always on
the run, always on the goatto keep going. But it's like I
wish I was, like, I'mnot always on the go. I'm always
on the go doing the same ship. And that's just school and studying,
and that's just the same same thingover and over again. It seems like
you're always picking up a new newopportunity, a new hustle. Bro And
soon I was thinking, maybe Ishould get a second job, Like no
(29:12):
way, Like I know, Idon't have I don't have the time,
but like I have the drive tohave a second job. That's why I'd
be great if I can somehow inthe future. I'm excited the next two
years, I know, but investin something that'll that'll create a new line
of passive income for myself, anew lending income, so I can not
have to directly work, but I'llstill get cash flow and throughout the month,
(29:36):
which I'm very excited for. Butyeah, you know, always got
a building a beast to become alegend. You know what I'm saying.
Fucking amazing. I love it buildinga beast to become a legend. I
feel like they're gonna write a bookon you some day, dude, And
if no one does, fuck it. I need I need a camera cruit.
Some days I'm like, I justwant someone to follow me and be
fucking hilarious. Even it's go programlike Carlee, like like, what's a
(29:57):
little it's nice movie? Hardcore Hendryhardcore Henry. I have no it is
that what it's called. The movieis a TV show. It's like,
no, it's a movie. It'sextremely violent. I'm not saying that you're
extremely violent, but the way it'srecorded, the entire movie is recorded from
a go pro on like I guessa video camera on the guy's chest.
(30:18):
Wow, So it's the it's thefirst person movie. In the entire movie,
it's pretty crazy. What's called kindof mental hardcore? Yeah, holy
shit, what the fuck this lookssick? I saw it like five years
ago. Hold on. I can'tlook it up to hardcore. You can
watch it on which was a description. Apparently it's available in prime video.
(30:41):
Oh dude, it is so violent. That's like, it is so so
graphic, but it is quite interesting. No way, the cameraman it wasn't
mounting on his chest, it wasmounting on his face. It's on his
face. That's even crazier. Thebudget was two million. It made sixteen
million. You know what for atwo million dollar movie, that's fucking awesome.
(31:02):
That's a really good ratio. Thatis it made sixteen million. That
is almost sixteen point eight so almosteight and a half times the amounts of
money in terms of like profit,which is great. Dude, that is
crazy. Okay, I had noidea for two million dollars, but they
went they went baller on that movie. That was like, yeah, it's
(31:22):
crazy to think how like a moviecan be, like spend two million,
make sixteen other movies like spend abillion, make fucking eight billion. It's
like, what was how much isAvatar? Avatar highest first one, highest
grossing films of all time, Avatarcost of production, top lifetime grosses.
(31:44):
Okay, Avatar two hundred and thirtyseven. The original was yeah, two
hundred, No, it says twobillion, two point nine billion dollars almost
three billion dollars. What that's whatthat's what it made, but it costs
two thirty seven watching. I can'tbelieve the Avatar of the Way of Water
the sequel is actually the third placeof all time. That's that's kind of
(32:07):
nuts. Man. Did you watchThe Way of Water? Honestly, it
was good, but it was notas memorable as agreed. Also, it
was similar to Oppenheimer, which Iloved Oppenheimer, but fuck really long,
Like I'm really glad that I watchedit. In vip avatared The Way of
Water specifically because holy fuck, Iwould have I would have fallen asleep or
I lost interest or like felt uncomfortablevia like a regular standard screening. They
(32:31):
already have four avatar movies. Planthat's like really bad, really okay,
But I think I remember them hearingthey're only they're gonna do like five,
and each one is like a differentlike element. I guess, yeah,
you know what I mean, Sothat the first one was like land and
air, the third second or They'regonna fire. The first one was land
(32:52):
in air, the second one waswater. No, the third one's gonna
be The third one's gonna be air. The fourth one is gonna be fire.
That's what it is. I think. I don't know. I remember
reading that somewhere. Where did Iread it? Don't know, but it's
in my head and I read itsomewhere, so I could be talking out
of my ass, not tasting it. Very satisfying. But the Barbie movie
is one point four billion dollars.I was like one point four billion dollars
(33:16):
lifetime gross and it's number fourteen spotlike the fourteen one point four and that's
satisfying. Holy shit, dude,they have Avatar five plus what what?
Oh? Okay? Yeah? Afifth and final film has been announced and
is scheduled for December nineteenth, twentythirty one. How old are we gonna
(33:37):
be? Thirty years old? Tenyears we're gonna be thirty years old.
I'm still gonna be in school?Oh no, no, no no no.
Hopefully we'll be done. Depends whatI what I decide to do,
Like neuro like am I going through? Like neurology fucking closed. I closed
(34:00):
the my school shell just opened up. All white knights went blind. Look
at me I'm shining, shining.Okay, uncles down before I start going
off on I'm gonna do a goodventure. But quick check and see if

Guy, good Chow, Welcome uponit. Back to another episode of Dumb
and Delicious Podcast hosted by Guy Paratryand Jack Hamilton. My name is Guy,
my name is Jack, and that'swhat it does. It feels like
(00:45):
it's been for like two weeks.Yeah, we had so much audience engagement
from the last episode. You guyssmashed fifty downloads, which is a lot
since, like i'd that's the mostdownlows we've had in a single episode in
one week in like four to sixmonths. So absolutely nutty. That is
(01:08):
ridiculous. Y'all smashed it. Thankyou very much for sharing it and listening
and downloading it and all that.Shouts out to our audience. Ball through
our last episode, our friends,our friends, our tight family circle.
I was gonna say, getting backin the swing of things with school has
been fucking Taylor, do it again. I gotta put this down. So,
(01:30):
guys, I like, whenever Ispeak, I have to be doing
something with my hands, and likethere are certain things on my desk that
if I play with them while we'rerecording, it comes up on the audio.
And I just picked up the pause, like the the most noisy one
I have on my desk, playthe cloth or something. So I just
put it down. I just putit down, and now I gotta find
something. I'm just gonna play withthe pencil this. I just like roll
(01:53):
it back and forth in my hands. I don't know. I just enjoy
that is. But I should geta fidget too. I don't have any.
I have like a like a puzzlecube thing, but it makes like
a you guys can hear that.It makes like a like a clack dy
sound. I'm just gonna play inthe pencil. Yeah, I get back.
It's anything in school has been fuckingbrutal, dude. Oh my god,
(02:13):
I completely forgot how hard it is. Like it's a this is so
last week I had a half week. I started on Thursday. This week,
man, oh my god, fullweek of school. First full week
of school. I'm not even doneyet. Fucked me up, dude,
so much shit to do calling me? How have you been. I've been
good recently. I have been focusing. So I felt weird because for the
(02:38):
first time in like eighteen years ofmy life, I'm not going back to
school like officially or formally full time. So it's a bit weird. It's
been odd. And so instead whatI've been doing is obviously I'm still working,
but instead of focusing on the negativeside aspect of I'm not going back
(02:59):
to school, I missed that lifea little bit, and focusing more on
Okay, why do I feel thisway? And how can I help myself?
And so I've been doing a lotof self more self care than usual,
more lonely time, more isolation,more stepping back, and I guess
(03:21):
smelling the roses, or just realizinghow peaceful still the world can be when
you just relax and try to releaseany tension possible, like you don't have
a million things on the exactly likethe other day. So every day I
go to work, I take thetrain, and so the past two months
three months. Actually now I've beenreading books, different books. As my
(03:45):
third book, I'm now on thisone's called how to Be a Badass Something
Something, how to be a Badassand something something something something by Jen's Scenaro.
Since SINCEO, you don't need abook like that, bro, you
got figured out and it's good.I mean, like I do. But
I'll be honest, I thought Ilost my passion for reading because I used
(04:09):
to read tons of novels as akid. But I've come to realize that
I actually enjoy self help books.I enjoy these like lifestyle books like to
me, they're very nice because thereare a reminder of a how much you
can improve on and be I mightbe reading something that I go, oh,
I'm already doing that, and thenit's more of like a pat on
the back and like reminder that you'redoing well, whether it's a thing to
(04:32):
learn from or I'm already learning itand I'm already ahead of the game,
which is a pat on the back. So regardless, it's positive and yeah,
so reading that one so far,I usually read it all the time
on the train like to there towork and sometimes on the way back.
And I make it a rule formyself that I have to read a chapter
or ten to twenty pages a day. So but yesterday was the first day
(04:57):
in like a month or two whereI actually didn't I didn't have work,
actually took a sick day off.I'm just getting I'm just getting over a
cold right now. But so Ican hear it. You're always hear sound
congest. Yeah, a little,a little lazily, but yeah, yeah,
I just I sat in my backyard, I had a glass of water.
(05:18):
I was obviously I had a cold. It was a little chily outside,
so I put on my nice bodyand then I fucking read fifteen twenty
pages. And then I was like, wow, it's peaceful, it's nice
outside. And also sometimes I'll onthe trend or most often i'll listen to
music like classical or instrumental music whilei'm reading. It helps me focused because
on the train there's so many differentattractions, but because like the deck,
(05:40):
the backyard was so still and peaceful, and there's a few people on and
off that come through the trails,but you know, it was it was
nice to have most of the time, it's pretty yeah, nice to have
that like serene and environment. Soyeah, I've been doing a lot of
self more more self care than usualrecently, felt a little existential two weeks
ago. But yeah, and again, thank you so much everyone for the
(06:02):
last episode that we posted. Itwas a huge success. I guess that's
a reminder or heads up till Jackand I that you guys really love to
hear us drunk on a podcast.But still like we were both pretty pretty
off the loop, so it willdo more of those. That was that
was fun. We definitely got todo more of those. And like because
like typically guy Kano and I recordonline just like convenience, tight schedules,
(06:27):
but when we record in person,just the energy is so much more powerful.
I guess I don't know, Ireally know how to say. It's
strong, more enthusiastic. It's morelike a snappy, more like elastic man
like pop like palm kind of thing. Yeah, yes, yeah, and
then that mixed with alcohol very butdrink responsibly, responsibly, feeling very body
(06:48):
to. So you were just talkingabout your book there, and I'm not
gonna lie. That just made mehad a realization that I haven't read a
nonfiction book and probably eight our nineyears really scenes high. Yeah, probably
great time every book I read islike science fiction. But I did get
one. I actually know. Ifinished. I'm saying finished for the first
(07:12):
time in a long time, thoughI had picked up to call me an
idiot. Fiction is real, nonfiction is real. Fiction is like fake
like yeah, like the storytelling Lordrings as a fiction. Nonfiction is like
a biography on like Joe Biden orsomething. So I said that backs I've
exclusively read fiction for the past eightyears. So actually technically on right,
(07:33):
because I said, you said youhave the read a nonfiction book in eight
or nine years or whatever, I'veonly read fiction. Fake thake of fiction.
Fake ya yes, yes, okay, I'm sucking, I'm talking,
and I'm confusing the pucket myself.Bro like today for school, man,
I'm just Calculus killed me. Mybrain's on fire right now. Yeah,
(07:54):
So I picked up two nonfiction booksfor the first time in a very long
time. I'm not a gambler.I'm not I'm not a I'm not canonia
gambling. I think it is verybad for a lot of people. People
there's a lot of money. Butmy cousin gave me a book on poker
about one of the best written byone of the best poker players in the
world. And I was like,I because typically when would play poker,
(08:16):
we're like card games my cottage orwith my family or my homies are playing
blackjack or something or like I,I would say eighty percent of the time
performed very well, usually sweep prettyhard. And everyone just likes to say
I cheat, although I don't.I used to cheat a lot board games
when I was younger, not anymore. The only game I cheated now is
who Know, because fucking wow.So I was talking about that and he's
(08:39):
like, oh, if you're likeinto that kind of thing, Like,
here's this book, so give methis book about written by one of the
best pokers players in the world.And it's like fucking eight hundred pages long.
It's a thick ass book. ButI only read the section on like
black jack and No Limit Hold Them, which you know, the most played
poker game in the world, NoLimit Hold Them. So that was interesting
to read a book that's actually real. That kind of put me back in
(09:01):
reality, I guess. And thenmy dad gave me this book called Never
Split the Difference, and this isactually, I guess, not not necessarily
self help. That sounds like afinancing book close. It's a negotiating book.
Interesting, So it's a book thatteach teaches you how to negotiate with
people, mechanics and negotiating and conversation, basically how to get what you want
(09:22):
out of conversation. And it's writtenby the lead hostage negotiator for the CIA
wailing former or like still the leadlike are they allowed to release information like
that former he's no longer no longerbut was for several for like eighteen years.
Crazy. Yeah, I've never splitthe difference, That's what he says
(09:46):
in the book. I'm pretty sure. I don't know. I haven't picked
it up in a minute. Igot like a few I got like one
hundred and fifty pages in and thenI kind of just, you know,
school picked up, and I haven'tbeen able to get back into it.
But that's, like I said,first nonfiction book I'm actually diving into that
actually has like no, it doesn'tfollow a story. It's basically this guy
explaining his history, what he does, how he doesn't. Yeah, and
it is really fucking cool because itI honestly have been like subconsciously using things
(10:13):
I picked up from this book inconversation oh, pretty interesting. My dad
gave it to me, and mydad actually used this book to convince my
mom to let him kind of modehis truck a little more. So it's
pretty because he's very anti, veryanti like redneck chuck. My dad's got
this white pickup that it got forhis birthday like two years ago, three
(10:33):
years ago, and he just touchedit because he's scared. He's not scared
to break the warranty he doesn't getfuck, but because my mom doesn't want
mods on it. So he waslike, how loud or something. He
was like. She was like,oh, bro, it's so loud.
Now it's awesome driving a monster truck. Literally, dude, my dad got
them. He saw he got thetires bumped out so like they used to
(10:54):
sit in the wheel well Now theyextend out of the wheel wells like a
loud, loud ass fucking exhaust.Now, dude, oh my god,
it's a beast. But basically heused this book to get anvince my mom
to get on board with him doingall that. Wow, So I'm reading
it's honestly really good if you justwant to learn, like a book about
tricks of conversation and just like youknow, deal breaking negotiating kind of thing.
(11:16):
Highly recommend Never Split the Difference byChris Boss. It is very very
interesting. Think that's something I wasinterested in too, because it has to
do with like the psychological factors andhuman conversation. Like that's one thing as
want. Like It's like the reasonI like these lifestyle and solve oup books
is because it has to do it'spsychologically how we act and like why we
(11:37):
do the things we do. Ithink that's why I like it so much.
So something like that, actually i'dprobably get into. I started listening
to a podcast recently or that's likefollowing a few of these like different podcasts
that have to do with how tobe more professional, how to like sales
wise marketing. Like again I'm notat the moment a big person on sales
marketing, but it's more of thebehind the scenes and how well they do.
(12:03):
It's what they say, it's howthey engage, it's how they can
turn over a person that goes no, i'm good, I'm good too.
Actually, let me get back toyou on that or like whatever about in
terms of selling a products, AndI thought that was it's been really interesting.
So yeah, that's been that's inrocking so far, that's a ball
and booling. I'm about to say, once I'm done the book, I
(12:24):
mean, I'll give it to youone and check it out, because I
know it something you'd be definitely interestedin. It's only like two hundred and
fifty pages, Like, it's notit's not like something that's not it's not
it's not a long read, butit's it's good. Yeah. Have you
ever listened listen to My Goodness?Have you ever read the book The Subtle
Art. I'm not giving a fuck. No, my dad has it,
but I've never read. I wouldhighly recommend that one, especially if you
(12:46):
kind of like these psychological, fuckinglike books about how people engage each other.
Like, I don't know, Ithink it's also that one specifically,
that was the first one I've everread, and the reason I like it
so much was because of how candidthe author, Mark Manson is. I
guess Mark Manson about how he's justvulnerable and how he literally swears in his
(13:09):
book. He's like, oh,like every other sentence it's saying the efforts,
he's saying fuck this, and likeI'll give a fucking this and blah,
blah blah whatever. Like I thinkthat would like ground to me a
lot into being more intrigued and moreengaged with his book and his writing.
So that's why I think that's thatwas. That was a book that set
it off for me. But Ihighly highly highly recommend that one. That
(13:30):
one. You could honestly, ifI read it back, I could probably
read it in like a few days. But that took me. That one,
because it was my first one,took me a few months I actually
read because it was on and offand I want to read. I wanted
to read, you know, Sogetting back into like, I know it
sounds stupid. I just dropped Iwas playing with an earring. I just
moved on from a pencil to anearring and I just dropped my earring.
(13:50):
And I have no idea where.Uh okay, I'll look for it after
the episode never mind something fuck gotit? Yeah, I was gonna say,
like I always that's gonna I'd stupidto say. But getting back into
reading after not like picking up andreading a personal book for a long time,
it's kind of hard to Like,It's not hard, not that it's
hard to read. It's not thatit's hard to understand the book. It's
(14:11):
hard to get back into the habitof just opening a book on your free
time, you know what I mean, Because like I haven't app like before
these two books that I read,of the Poker and the Negotiating one,
I read maybe like half a booksummer because like I just forget no crack
up in a book I want toread, just want to read some sound
superesting. I read like half ofit and then I was like read half
of it over the spending like threemonths, and then a school will start
(14:33):
and then I was like close thebook and forget about the next summer,
you know what I mean. Bynext summer, I forgot stories. I
have to restart it. But yeah, no, I always wanted to kind
of get into self help books becauselike I literally do not even know how
to approach self approach self help,Like I kind of just do my own
thing and think whatever's working in myhead is working, which yeah, and
(14:54):
I feel like that's something I coulddefinitely benefit from one hundred percent. But
my in Dorc simply will not letme because I'll walk into a room there's
two bookshelves, one full of selfhelp and one full of sci fi and
like automatically, it's gonna go forthe sci fi books, even if you
blindfold me and put me in thisroom and tell me to reach forward to
(15:16):
grab a books. The Last Spaceshipsand Aliens just like calls to me,
and I was like, reach out, just pull that one out by chance,
you know what I mean, Likejust I don't know. I have
to have a big interest in somethingto read it, or I have to
have a reason to read. It'sa reason to read. It would be
like school, but like big interestis just like sucking space exploration. Shut
(15:37):
me up, dude. Yep,maybe possibly will, but it's completely fucking
impossible. This shit I read islike it's ridiculous. Actually no, there's
two books I read recently by thesame I would say, Arthur same author.
His names Peter Peter Watts, andhe just writes very interesting sci fi
novels. Obviously, I've spoken aboutone of them before on the podcast.
(16:00):
It's called Blindsight. And this guyjust he approaches science fiction from a realistic
standpoint. So it's really it's reallyreally cool how he does it because like
being someone in biology, I'm notgassing myself up here, but anyone in
a four year degree of anything cansay they have ext not extensive knowledge,
but you know, good knowledge ofwhatever the fuck they took in school.
(16:22):
I'm taking a biospecialist program, soI'd like to think I have fairly good
knowledge on biology. So it's veryinteresting to see this guy use stuff I
learned in school and like kind oflike niche. I guess, I don't
know you can say that niche biologicalconcepts that don't really aren't talked about much
of it bring him up and justlike use them to explain something in his
book and reading something in his bookas opposed to why it works. So
(16:44):
that's that like interested in loving thatshit. A little fun fact person that
goes, h, did you knowthis? But yeah, because like reading
the book, it's like, oh, vampire, are vampire scared angle or
scared acrosses? Well, they're notscared acrosses. They're good at nine degree
angles because you know, throughout evolution, nine agree angles never naturally occurred in
nature. So when a vampire throat, its evolution would encounter a ninety degree
(17:06):
angle in nature, it would likeshort circuit it's brain and make it freak
out and across is four right oracross has twelve right angles, so it's
going to fuck it up pretty badif it seems across four, five,
six, seven, eight, nine, ten, Yeah, right, twelve,
I count it. That's I don'tknow if you'll feel come through on
my audio, but I would likeone, two, three, four angles
(17:26):
well right basically. And then theyfreak out. That's actually like more like
one of the theories or more ofthe things that they think that why vampires
actually hated crosses was ninety degrees.That's just what the guy says in the
book to explain vampires. Oh nice, Like it's pretty pretty interesting. And
it's like vampires can think beyond thethird dimension, like they can think in
(17:47):
for the fourth dimension. So vampiresare important in like highly important situations because
if Guytano and I think a B, a vampire will think A plus B
eight times B divided by B,all right instantaneously, So I can just
think of all these things really quickly. That's why they reportant of the Okay,
I'm not I'm talking about this isliterally the fourth time I've explained this
(18:10):
exact same thing on the podcast.But I just think it's super fun cool,
So britty britty down pretty nice myphone. I also like also since
uh, since we last recorded,I have I can't remember I talked about
it last podcast or not, butI got to no, I think it
was that day of the recording.I got two gigs. I got an
active gig for a social media socialmedia influencer, and I also got a
(18:36):
modeling gig, my first official modelinggig for an ebike company. That was
fucking awesome. No way for anebike company. Two of all the ebike
machine or e scooter machine. Ithought it was so funny. But yeah,
so you're gonna see my face Almazonsoon. Yeah, that's hilarious,
h for for an ebike. I'mgonna go in comment leave review saying,
(18:59):
like the guy, just the guymodeling and showing off the spike alone made
me want it's so bad show.It looked so cool with him riding and
I just got home on I wantto be like the photographer. And it's
obviously like action shots with the bike, with the bikes and everything, so
uh yeah, it was like ina studio. It was like I thought
it was media studio. It turnedout to that thing. Those things fucking
fly. Holy shit, that isso cool. What what was gonna say?
(19:25):
The photographer loved me because I gavehim two different variations on like other
models. I'd be like, Ilike, he'd have to ask other models
to do like and we're dynamic,like pose but also have to pose them
versus me. I All he saidwas just saying dynamic, and I'd be
like, oh, he goes great, I love that. And then he's
like, just do like a morecasual one, and I would do casual.
So it's a casual and dynamic Cand D right, uh C and
(19:48):
d C and then the d uhand so yeah, Who's was that?
Damn? I think Dann? YeahDan, it was Dan, So I
guess shout out to Dan. Idon't know. I know there's lacken years
in the future. It's gonna be, like I can know, it's gonna
be like, oh, eating thenew fucking Junior Chicken three it's come out
of and it's gonna be like inventingthe new Boeing five hundred, five thousand
(20:17):
whatever with the bazillion seats, andit's like guy cannot fly in the plane
like him smiling, you know,and I'm sucking this guy everywhere. It'd
be so weird if like models werelike actors and like really popular ones got
like picked for everything, so likeyou would see like I don't know who
the famous model. I don't knowany models. I don't know any models.
But yes, but but you arekind of right though, Like some
(20:37):
models can have such a high statusin class that they are considered popular and
they're in everything. It's just youdon't see it as often because it's the
stars. It's the actors that getmore of the attention VHA. Like,
like I think there's gotta be somethere's something modeling awards out there, but
no one knows what that is.No one really pays attention to that everon
won't pay attention to though, likethe Tony's, the Oscars, things like
that, and it's like like literally, like we just said, I cannot
(21:00):
think of anything exactly. So yeah, the model the gig was went great.
I got paid for that too,for joy money as well. So
huh do you go for a joyright Let you go for a joy right
on? Yeah, a little bitat the end it was great. Yeah.
Yeah, oh my god, dude, I'm getting hyped. Probably that
is that is probably I probably flewa good, good two kilometers one kilometer
away, one kilometer back, becausethey were like, oh the like if
(21:22):
the we're going groning in a shootthis one model. And I was like,
okay, it sounds good, Likedo you like join? I said
tighter, like could I go fora little joy rat And there's like yeah,
just don't go too far. I'mlike, let's go. I fucking
flew down the street and back.That is so cool. I didn't want
at all. I just let thefucking machine do the work. So that
(21:44):
is so cool. Wait, howwhat's the what's the acting gig? Or
can you not leak information on theacting gig? And I gotta talk about
the acting gig was a social mediacreator for what was his name, matt
Matthew Matthew. I can't remes thefull Instagram handle for him, but Matthew.
He does social media PSAs regarding bullyingand things like that. So unfortunately,
(22:10):
the obviously obviously they're staged, butyou'll have a scenario, and the
scenario that day was these two girlswere bullying this little kid and like throwing
his backpack around, and then eachof the actors had a chance to have
their take, go in and intyour interfere of the situation and yeah,
So I thought mine was really welldone. I felt confident doing it so
(22:34):
much that I was excited, soexcited from it. So I asked the
the the guy had guys, like, can I do another take? He's
like, oh, jump like thelast one. I'm like, you know,
I liked it. I just wantto do another one, can do
a different version kind of thing.He's like, I might do with time
for that. He goes sure,I'm like, all right, awesome.
So we did that and the kidseven commented that I was working with.
(22:56):
We're all like, we're like thatthought really good, Like that was awesome
like this and uh yeah, sothat was a lot of fun. Uh
dude, that's so cool. Yeah, Like I got paid for that as
well, and yeah, that's mostSo what's happened with me recently? Oh?
I also went to Waterloo to Tristanfor the weekend last weekend, which
(23:17):
is great. I went on forI went Friday and then got back Sunday
morning or Sunday afternoon. Friday.All we did was well Friday and Saturday.
Tristan introduced me something called frisbee gulf, which is kind of awesome.
Dude. We have always wanted tobelieve frisbee go, Oh my god,
but I'd be so bad. I'mnot gonna lie. It's a it's a
lot of fun. Oh it's likethe first time. I think actually I
(23:38):
did pretty good my first time.But the first time we went was on
the Friday, and we walked overand we get there and everything and we're
laughing and throwing the mist round.I think it was the the first or
second day that Tristan accidentally threw asthere's a pond near on this, on
this field or on this on thecourse, and Tristan just goes, whatever
you do, don't throw the frisbeein the pond, because like it's disgusting
(24:02):
and like I've done it before andit sucks to retrieve it. Like,
no worries, no worries. SoI throw mine first, and I'm like,
oh, it's decent throw. Andthen Tristan throws his after, and
lo and behold, he tossed itright in almost the smack middle of the
pond, and so he in orderto retrieve it, he had to take
off his socks, his shoes inhis socks, go barefoot into this pond
(24:27):
that probably a thousand geese I've shippedin, like to the point where every
time he took a step into thepond it just went black almost like Yeah,
so I had a video of that, and he is fucking disgusting anyways
to retrieve the disk and yeah,but it was a lot of fun.
(24:47):
I'll du that like that. Thatimage of in my head is absolutely foul
of Triss and marching through this pondand just sinking in the geese ship.
Yeah, and it's sled. Itwas sludgy. It was probably a good
like three or four inches like deepthat he was in the sludge. The
pond itself was about probe two feethigh. But yeah, and uh yeah
(25:07):
the Friday we went out drinking alot of fun. Saturday night we went
to a place called Phills, which, oh no, dude, that place
is a fucking reputation. It's greasyas fuck. Yeah, yeah, and
so funny enough, Tristan and Iboth got sick come two days after on
the Monday. So Maddie, Tristan'sgirlfriend, was like, you guys got
(25:30):
pills flu, and so I thinkwe both got Yeah, we definitely contracted
the pills flu because we both hadthe same symptoms, both like in like
disarray, and it was yeah,again, I'm recovering. I think by
tomorrow I should be fine. Butdamn I got six sick to the point
where I called in for the likeone of the first times, first few
times ever to work, Like Idon't ever call into work. This was
(25:53):
like, okay, a few pillsif you like, a few like algy
pills or fucking cold hills and thetown all like that was not going to
do it be enough. So mydad actually said I'm proud of you for
not going in, and I'm like, thank you. I appreciate that,
but yeah, I don't. Idon't like calling it to work effort of
like, bro, i'd say Idon't take sick days. I don't know
(26:17):
to get paid. I'd be takingevery six day, bro, and now
and now because every now, becauseI did take the sick day like I
took yesterday off, it feels weirdto me. It still feels about Tuesday
or Wednesday. It doesn't feel likea Thursday because I don't have that.
I actually work doubles on a Wednesday. So I'm like, I'm ready to
go, but now it's I don'tknow, it's a bit off putting,
but fuck it, we ball,fucking we ball. That's dope, dude.
(26:40):
I mean not dope that you gotsick, but like your dad was
like, congrats, I'm not goinginto work, like I know. That's
where I was like, wow,he's really telling me. And then he
told me like an hour later thatyou know, you need to like slow
down and like like you're you're alwaysgoing and going and going and going,
and I don't see the breaks beingused too often. It's always acceleration.
And I'm like, well, Ijust stay busy. I like to work
(27:02):
and yeah, yah yah. Andthen like literally ten minutes after you said
that, I picked up another shiftbecause I didn't go to work on Wednesday
and I gotta continue with the incomeand I got a lot of things to
save up for and I got myreal estate courses and start saying, which
I'm starting actually tomorrow, which I'mvery excited for. Over excited. I
(27:22):
was nervous at first. I wasexcited. But it's a pay as you
go. It's on a lump sum, which is I think is a benefit.
So that's I've never heard of apay as you go course, well,
like each course technically in university it'suh, it's okay, how to
explain. You pay per course,so technically it's a pay as you go,
but you're not going to take onecourse at a time in university.
(27:45):
You'll take like fucking five or six. That's why you go and get into
the thousands of dollars and you paythat in a lump sum. Right,
it's all in like a on anonline student statement. So I guess that
you're taking like I guess, fivereal estate courses at once, and you're
just paying it all out front.But it's literally the same thing. Yeah,
yeah, but but the thing isonlike other programs or universities, this
(28:07):
one is pay as you go asand like you can't unlock or can't pay
for the next one until you finishthe prior one, the previous one.
Oh so it's like taking first year, second year, third year, fourth
year calculus in order to in orderto get the second one, you got
to pay and take the first kindof yeah, like I haven't take the
prerequisites in order to unlock and thenpay for the second and third and fourth
(28:27):
and fifth and sixth and whatever.Yeah, right, so yeah, it's
cool though. Good Keep grinding forthat, keep grinding for other things.
Keep got it for the future.Wake up, guy, do it for
the family. Wake up some otherdays. Guy do for the future.
Family. Guy do it for thefuture, kids, the future wife,
all that shit. The busiest guyin the world somehow gets even more busy.
(28:49):
Yeah, yeah, it's gonna beit. It's like you're always on
the run, always on the goatto keep going. But it's like I
wish I was, like, I'mnot always on the go. I'm always
on the go doing the same ship. And that's just school and studying,
and that's just the same same thingover and over again. It seems like
you're always picking up a new newopportunity, a new hustle. Bro And
soon I was thinking, maybe Ishould get a second job, Like no
(29:12):
way, Like I know, Idon't have I don't have the time,
but like I have the drive tohave a second job. That's why I'd
be great if I can somehow inthe future. I'm excited the next two
years, I know, but investin something that'll that'll create a new line
of passive income for myself, anew lending income, so I can not
have to directly work, but I'llstill get cash flow and throughout the month,
(29:36):
which I'm very excited for. Butyeah, you know, always got
a building a beast to become alegend. You know what I'm saying.
Fucking amazing. I love it buildinga beast to become a legend. I
feel like they're gonna write a bookon you some day, dude, And
if no one does, fuck it. I need I need a camera cruit.
Some days I'm like, I justwant someone to follow me and be
fucking hilarious. Even it's go programlike Carlee, like like, what's a
(29:57):
little it's nice movie? Hardcore Hendryhardcore Henry. I have no it is
that what it's called. The movieis a TV show. It's like,
no, it's a movie. It'sextremely violent. I'm not saying that you're
extremely violent, but the way it'srecorded, the entire movie is recorded from
a go pro on like I guessa video camera on the guy's chest.
(30:18):
Wow, So it's the it's thefirst person movie. In the entire movie,
it's pretty crazy. What's called kindof mental hardcore? Yeah, holy
shit, what the fuck this lookssick? I saw it like five years
ago. Hold on. I can'tlook it up to hardcore. You can
watch it on which was a description. Apparently it's available in prime video.
(30:41):
Oh dude, it is so violent. That's like, it is so so
graphic, but it is quite interesting. No way, the cameraman it wasn't
mounting on his chest, it wasmounting on his face. It's on his
face. That's even crazier. Thebudget was two million. It made sixteen
million. You know what for atwo million dollar movie, that's fucking awesome.
(31:02):
That's a really good ratio. Thatis it made sixteen million. That
is almost sixteen point eight so almosteight and a half times the amounts of
money in terms of like profit,which is great. Dude, that is
crazy. Okay, I had noidea for two million dollars, but they
went they went baller on that movie. That was like, yeah, it's
(31:22):
crazy to think how like a moviecan be, like spend two million,
make sixteen other movies like spend abillion, make fucking eight billion. It's
like, what was how much isAvatar? Avatar highest first one, highest
grossing films of all time, Avatarcost of production, top lifetime grosses.
(31:44):
Okay, Avatar two hundred and thirtyseven. The original was yeah, two
hundred, No, it says twobillion, two point nine billion dollars almost
three billion dollars. What that's whatthat's what it made, but it costs
two thirty seven watching. I can'tbelieve the Avatar of the Way of Water
the sequel is actually the third placeof all time. That's that's kind of
(32:07):
nuts. Man. Did you watchThe Way of Water? Honestly, it
was good, but it was notas memorable as agreed. Also, it
was similar to Oppenheimer, which Iloved Oppenheimer, but fuck really long,
Like I'm really glad that I watchedit. In vip avatared The Way of
Water specifically because holy fuck, Iwould have I would have fallen asleep or
I lost interest or like felt uncomfortablevia like a regular standard screening. They
(32:31):
already have four avatar movies. Planthat's like really bad, really okay,
But I think I remember them hearingthey're only they're gonna do like five,
and each one is like a differentlike element. I guess, yeah,
you know what I mean, Sothat the first one was like land and
air, the third second or They'regonna fire. The first one was land
(32:52):
in air, the second one waswater. No, the third one's gonna
be The third one's gonna be air. The fourth one is gonna be fire.
That's what it is. I think. I don't know. I remember
reading that somewhere. Where did Iread it? Don't know, but it's
in my head and I read itsomewhere, so I could be talking out
of my ass, not tasting it. Very satisfying. But the Barbie movie
is one point four billion dollars.I was like one point four billion dollars
(33:16):
lifetime gross and it's number fourteen spotlike the fourteen one point four and that's
satisfying. Holy shit, dude,they have Avatar five plus what what?
Oh? Okay? Yeah? Afifth and final film has been announced and
is scheduled for December nineteenth, twentythirty one. How old are we gonna
(33:37):
be? Thirty years old? Tenyears we're gonna be thirty years old.
I'm still gonna be in school?Oh no, no, no no no.
Hopefully we'll be done. Depends whatI what I decide to do,
Like neuro like am I going through? Like neurology fucking closed. I closed
(34:00):
the my school shell just opened up. All white knights went blind. Look
at me I'm shining, shining.Okay, uncles down before I start going

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
