The Shakedown with Shooter and Mac G
Newly acquainted bros with nothing better to do after work so we decide to try this podcast stuff. We'll be having daily discussions about various topics from current events to whatever is on our minds. Let's get real and hopefully have a few laughs along the way.
The Shakedown with Shooter and Mac G
Guinness, Grind, And Getting Better All The Time
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Pain can feel like a switch you can’t turn off, so we grabbed two mics and a Guinness and turned it into fuel. We start with the nitro cascade—why cans beat bottles, how the widget works, and the strange satisfaction of a foam crown that lasts—and end up somewhere bigger: raw talk on men’s mental health, late-bloomer confidence, and the courage to change your show art, your habits, and your life without asking for permission.
We open up about growing up without dads, grandmothers stepping in, and the uneven ways we learn boundaries. If you’ve ever felt stuck in mind games, we unpack the red flags: questions that invite arguments, answers that get flipped, and the slow fade of self-respect when you try to become someone else’s idea of acceptable. The fix isn’t fancy. It’s routines that survive love and heartbreak, sleep that keeps your mood steady, and boring systems that protect gym time, diet, and creative work. Minimalism gets a nod too: less stuff, more focus, more energy left for what matters.
On the creator side, we get tactical. We’re revamping our thumbnail, moving from audio to video, and taking the show on the road with a Little Italy food challenge. We share DIY tips you can use right now: call ahead, do your research, respect the production, and train like it’s a sport—because it is. Expect noise from the bar downstairs and honest laughs; we’ll trade polish for presence any day. And yes, we still love the beer talk, but the real brew here is resilience, self-acceptance, and the nerve to iterate in public.
If this hits, subscribe wherever you listen, drop a comment with topics or challenges you want to see, and share this with a friend who’s rebuilding their routines. Your listens and notes shape where we take this next—what would you add to the journey?
Cold Open And Life’s Daily Grind
SPEAKER_01You know, but um it's been rough out there, you know, over or uh orbiting uh Earth.
SPEAKER_00Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, you know, you go out there, you try to find some things, you try to find um roaming this this planet, you mean? Yeah, roaming this planet, bro. It's uh tough situation because you know uh every day you wake up, like as soon as you wake up, you start feeling, you know. And the thing is, it's not it's not like it's a machine, it's not like a machine that you could turn off at the end of the day and just walk away. It's just you wake up, bro, and you and you, you know, and and the thing that sucks, bro, is like pain or like anything you feel, happiness, whatever, happiness is always a good thing. But like when you feel pain, you feel it throughout the whole day. You know, you know what's cool then? It's cool though.
Guinness Talk And The Nitro Cascade
SPEAKER_00What's up? Then when then uh Wednesdays and the weekends come and we're back to it.
SPEAKER_01And here at the Shakedown. Welcome to the show. You know how we do it here, put up raw and uncut. I do want to talk about um this Guinness, right? Because you you've been drinking Guinness for how long now? My Guinness? Yeah, how long you think you've been drinking Guinness for?
SPEAKER_00Uh, bro. I mean uh I already did get into like I guess more than anything, about like seven, eight years, maybe ten years ago or so. Like around my 30s.
SPEAKER_01And I remember the first time trying Guinness, I think it was, I'm pretty sure it was with you. And uh the thing I do like about Guinness that I will say is that I didn't see really in other beers is that waterfall. You know what I mean? I don't know what they call it. Yeah, that cascade. That that got me kind of hooked.
SPEAKER_00I'm not gonna lie, to me, it tastes a little bit more it's like like I said in uh a few episodes before, and the head that it gives you, bro. Yeah, exactly. It gives you good head, bro.
SPEAKER_01It does good head, it but uh it sure does, it sure does. And uh I mean so far to me, yeah. I like I said, um, the first time I tried it, I think that you have brought it over. We're at my place, no? Yeah, I think we're at my place, and we went to uh to the store, and you're like, oh, you know, try the Guinness, and we even went to Dollar Tree to buy the actual pints just for the Guinness.
SPEAKER_00Yep, yep.
SPEAKER_01You know what I mean? I feel like you can't drink a Guinness without an actual pint, it doesn't feel right. With an actual pint glass, you know what I mean.
SPEAKER_00Honestly, that's what sucks about Guinness is that the best way to have it is in in if it's not untapped, then it's in cans. Bottles, I don't like the bottles. You don't do bottles, the bottles are way too flat for me. It doesn't give you the foam like like the cans do, but that's because of the nitrogen, nitrogenated ball that's in it. I hear you.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, when you shake it, it's yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, and you know, I noticed with this one, as soon as you crack these bad boys, you better pour it.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah. And that's what you know it helps give you that that perfect thick foam at the top, which is called the head. That's why I say it gives you good head.
SPEAKER_01And you know what?
SPEAKER_00It stays, it stays all the way through.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah. The foam, the foam, I noticed that the foam will stay all the way through.
SPEAKER_00If you leave it, let the foam coat the inside of the glass, like I left my glass in there for like day and a half, dude. And that foam just dries up and still just stays there. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01You think it's the nitrate?
SPEAKER_00It is.
SPEAKER_01Oh, yeah, it's definitely the you know, like I'm not really a big fan of Guinness, but lately drinking Guinness and uh hanging out here at the show. Yeah, it kind of does, you know, you kind of do have a little spot for Guinness back in back in. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm not really I I I usually do like a regular beer, like maybe uh, you know.
SPEAKER_00I used to. I mean, I used to love 40s more than anything. Mickeys, oh dude, Mickeys are terrible. They used to, those used to be my. That's that bee, no? It's like a bee.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, the green bee. And then the green hornet. The green hornet, and then when you unwrap the cap, there's like a little hidden message or something on the cap.
SPEAKER_00Not anymore. Not anymore?
Nostalgia, Caps, And Tide Pod Rants
SPEAKER_01I remember a lot of companies used to do the whole cat thing. Like you would open a cap. I think uh Pepsi did it, or like some Sprite probably.
SPEAKER_00I think you would open the cap and some of them would have like a number or like uh contests or something like that. Right. Or look inside the can after you're done and finish your pop and look for uh some sort of a print inside the can. Whatever happened to those, whatever happened to getting a spoon in your cereal, you know what I mean? Really? Yeah, yeah. Well, I think people started choking on things and all that stuff. You must you what the Yeah, I know, I know.
SPEAKER_01But though you'd be surprised. Well, they had to tell people to stop eating those damn TIE pods. Yeah, damn kids. I don't understand, dude. Kids ruin everything, bro. Dude, you know what's funny? Humans came so far just to tell kids you can't be eating TIP pods, dog, they're not meant to be eating.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, no kidding.
SPEAKER_01How did how did how did humans come from starting fires, building civilizations, and now we got TikTokers and fucking influencers over here just you know what I mean? Doing the dumbest. You know what I mean? Doing the dumbest stuff.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Our forefighters would be turning in their grave right now. Yeah, get all dead just so some kid over here, fucking Johnny McGee over there.
SPEAKER_00Well, I mean, I think the the saying goes that the the the smarter the smartest person there is on one end of the spectrum, you can just expect there to be someone just as stupid on the other end. Do you understand what I'm saying? And trust me. Yeah, and I don't I don't mean on that spectrum of like you know, Down syndrome and all that other stuff of mental handicap. I'm talking fucking the idiocy spectrum, you know what I'm saying?
SPEAKER_01Just the the just the the the dumbest shit the ignorance the ignorant spectrum oh dude definitely definitely it's crazy, bro. It's it's it's it's ridiculous. Yeah, you know what I mean? It's like I feel like some people just go out their way just to, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah. It's for sure. Have me another one of those guys, buddy.
SPEAKER_01And and I was also thinking about you know, we're I'm a beer guy. I'm not really a liquor guy. I don't know. I'm a liquor guy. Like I said, I used to be a beer guy, but I don't know if it's just because I'm getting watch your phone. I don't know about your technology. Thank you. I don't know if it's because maybe I'm getting a little bit older here. I used to really like liquor. I used to really like mixing drinks.

That's a big ass can of nothing but just pure poison. I didn't know. It is, it's I never drink four locals, dude, because you could literally one can could black you out. And I seen people on four locals. You know, this four locals is came out when I was in high school, and kids were popping them in the back of the class, and dude, at the before the end of the day, they had to be dragged out to school because one four local bro, shh. It's got too much sugar, it's got too much bullshit in it.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_01But you you know, yeah, that's just my opinion, you know. I'd rather have a beer, or if I'm gonna drink something like that, I'd rather have a bottle. You know, yeah.
SPEAKER_00Well, you know, you can tell kids tsunami type pods, but there you go. It's like you might as well you might as well just hand it to them and feed it to them, you know. Salute. Yeah, but but I feel like that's how we are. I feel like if you told him something, he'd probably listen to you. I'm not gonna lie. No, it's just like I seen I never seen my kids so receptive as that uh around here is when you came in and started and started doing the podcast for them.
SPEAKER_01I I'm not um I don't know, bro. Like uh I just feel like I'm really I'm really a people person. You know, I feel like I could connect with most people. Not everybody, right? But I feel like I'm just hyping myself up. I'm just hyping myself up. Let me hype myself up. So, like I was saying, bro. I'll be walking into buildings now, and people just be like, yo, yo, you know, big swinging dick right there.
SPEAKER_00BD, watch out. Nah, nah, nah.
SPEAKER_01Clear the room, guys.
SPEAKER_00You might slap somebody in the face. Maybe, maybe.
SPEAKER_01If they don't have it up, I reach out and grab somebody. Might reach out and grab somebody if they don't harry it up. You know, because some people, man, I tell you, they be taking their sweet ass time. Like, lady, old lady, dude. If you don't harry the hell up, what is this dude?
SPEAKER_00What is lady? Don't go long, long dicking a sweet old lady now. Dang, they need loving too.
SPEAKER_01You know what I mean? And some of these, dude, I'm not gonna lie, I I don't I don't want to, you know, but yeah. Anyways, I was driving here yesterday, and there was this chick walking her dog, and you know, she looked like she was in her mid-50s. Yeah, I was ready to risk it off. Yeah, I was ready to be the dog walker, the dog whisperer.
SPEAKER_00The downside for me in my at my age, that's into older women is you can't get in here. You know what I mean? That that older that older age gap is definitely starting to get down to my age. No, I hear you. I hear you, bro.
SPEAKER_01And uh, you know, salute to that.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, that's that's that's the sad part of my story here. No, just kidding. I'm I'm joking, really. No, you know, it's all a good time here.
SPEAKER_01It's all a good time here at the show.
SPEAKER_00You know, but funnily enough, the woman uh the woman I that is that has my heart is like 10 years, almost 10 years younger than me.
SPEAKER_01So it's not bad. I I um that's what's the oldest you think?
SPEAKER_00The oldest I think what that you could go.
SPEAKER_01The oldest I think I can go with somebody like that. I think I already told you.
SPEAKER_00I think he told you that one.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, that's true. You know, because dude, some of these older chicks be I think I go about uh 20 years. That's not too bad.
SPEAKER_0020 years my senior, yeah.
SPEAKER_01Or yeah, senior. You're gonna be breaking bones, yeah. And uh sending her back to the uh what you call it that day. Yeah, sending her back in a wheelchair. No, but uh definitely it's definitely something this modern day uh this modern day dating.
SPEAKER_00I mean, but like I said, now I'm at that age where like I guess 20 years my senior is probably now 15 years my senior. Senior citizens?
SPEAKER_01No, dude, definitely.
Revamping Thumbnails And DIY Workflow
SPEAKER_00Well, I mean, that's almost where I'm at, right? Like 65? Well no, I guess you're supposed to be 65 when you're considered a senior, so true.
Humor, Bravado, And Dating Age Gaps
SPEAKER_01You know, I do want to talk about um I'm pretty sure a lot of people are curious here at the how we started off and how we made our first thumbnail, and then I'm pretty sure people are curious, like, oh, what about changes? What if you're you know, what if you what if you what if you make something, but then you feel like you need to upgrade it or you need to change it. Like we are in the process of changing the thumbnail.
SPEAKER_00We are in the process of uh revamping the show a little bit.
SPEAKER_01Exactly. And what would you tell people about like oh they feel like like is is is like oh they feel like they have to stick to one thing?
SPEAKER_00You never have to stick to anything. That's the the beauty of a podcast is you can start off doing one thing and then totally I mean it I'm sure your audience would appreciate it that you're not flip-flopping every like few months or whatever, but maybe stick to something for like six months to a year and see how that works and then change it up. But I mean, if you're starting up and you're still trying to figure out your format and what what your show's about and all that stuff, and and and it could change over time too. What you start off trying to do one doing at first might end up molding into something completely different later on down the line. But uh, I mean, like ours, we it's not to say that it was half-assed, because I'm pretty proud of it. I know you're proud of that that uh thumbnail. Oh yeah, I mean we put some time into it. Yeah, it just sucks that we can figure out the resizing issue. Right. Um and Canva was really cool. I mean to a certain degree. You it sucks that you have to everything is uh try it out for somewhere so much, and then we're gonna start charging you. Right. And even then, the free stuff that you get to try out isn't all that great, and the stuff that you want to try is a part is locked because it's not it's not a part of the free stuff.
SPEAKER_01Our first our first thumbnail was pretty much all free stuff, ain't it? Yeah, all yeah. It was off of a free stuff. I think it came out pretty decent.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, for creative. I know the reason why you want to change it is because isn't it the size of it is not the bottom and top white borders there, yeah. It needs to be resized. That and um but other than that, yeah, I'm really glad as to how it came out. But I think it is time for us to you know, I I think we finally started finding our footing. Definitely, maybe uh start trying to make it look a little bit more professional.
SPEAKER_01Definitely, definitely. If not complete, you know, and then especially because it's sometimes it feels like you're shedding skin, you're re you're reborn, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00You're yeah, you're coming out those as rising out of the ashes, you know.
Raw Vibes And Show Identity
SPEAKER_01Salute to all our people listening, salute to all our brothers and sisters, salute to everybody out there, you know. Amen. We like to keep it cool and clean. Salute and uh run uncut here at the shakedown. You know, we must never be exposed. The veteran, it is what it is. We're just a couple of guys here just chilling, talking some shit. Yeah, trying to let everybody know.
SPEAKER_00A couple of uh top minds ruling the world now um a little bit at one podcast at a time.
Mind Games, Boundaries, And Relationships
SPEAKER_01What about these mind games? You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00Like what about what? These mind games? I don't know. John Lennon had quite a quite a bit to say about it. He wrote a song about the damn shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. John Lennon. John Lennon, yeah. What's it called? It's called mind games. Really? Let me tell you about mind games. You stupid me. For real.
SPEAKER_01You know, I feel like maybe this is me, right? But like too much, too much going on there. You know, it's just everywhere, bro. It's just the dude, the thing for me, bro, is they're just they're just too much, bro. Dude, the thing for me is I like straight answers, dude. Just give me a straight answer. Yes or no? You know what I mean? I don't want to hear this. My fucking grandma died.
SPEAKER_02You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_01My dog died. I don't want to hear that shit. You coming over or what, bitch? No. You know what I mean? She's gonna get buried tomorrow. You know what I mean? Shit. We still got time, baby. Come on. You know, RMP the grandma dog, but like, what the fuck? You know what I mean? So so shout out to that. And um these busy dudes, and then to find out that they're then to find out that they're is she buried yet?
SPEAKER_00No, no, dude, just to find out. You know what I mean? Before you start losing your marbles over here, damn it.
SPEAKER_01And then next thing you know, she's walking with her grandma in the grocery store. Like, what the fuck? I thought she was dead. You know what I mean? That's not my other grandma.
SPEAKER_00Oh, that's funny, dude. I can't play these mind games, dude. You're here, I can't do it, dude.
SPEAKER_01I can't do it, dude. I swear to god, dude. Like, my other grandma. I just be like, dude, how many grandmas you got? How many fucking grandmas you got?
SPEAKER_00So far.
SPEAKER_01Gator don't play that shit, dude.
SPEAKER_00Shooter don't play that shit, and then and that's what aside from the ones my my grandparents are married to. You know what I mean? My granddads are married too.
SPEAKER_01Next thing you know, it's the grandpa next week. You know? It is what it is, though. Like, me personally, bro, you can't tell people what not to do and what to do because they're gonna do what they want to do, right? And especially if you tell them not what not to do, they're gonna even do it more. You tell them not to do the something, they're gonna do it even more. You tell her, you tell your trick, you tell your girl not to go out, oh she gonna go out.
SPEAKER_00You tell her to go, you know what I mean? I don't, I know. I'll I tell her, I'll let tell her any anybody, anybody, be it a friend or being a woman I'm in a relationship with, and tell them when you ask me what I think they should do, like, what does it matter what what I think you should should or shouldn't do? You're gonna do what you're gonna what you're gonna do anyway. So it doesn't feel like why why are you asking for my opinion uh just to get me upset? Right. It almost seems like you're asking me so you would you could do the opposite. Yeah, I used to be with a girl with I used to be with a lady that used to do the exact every time. And like blatantly, blatantly, like I would give her my answer, and and she would be like, Oh no, I'm just gonna do the complete opposite of what you just said.
SPEAKER_01Then why would you ask me?
SPEAKER_00Why are you asking me?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, why would you ask me?
SPEAKER_00And then like after I think we were together for like six, seven years. I think after year three or whatever, she asked me something now that I would have. I said, Well, I mean, I get I g I I don't know. I she's like, Well, what? Why why won't you? I said, Because I I'm I'm stuck here. I can either give you an answer that I know will benefit me because I know that if I tell you what I think, you're just gonna do the opposite, you know? But so that's you know, that's where I'm at. And she was like, Oh, what do you mean? Why are you being such an asshole? Like, because every time you ask me, you do the complete opposite of what I ask you. So why even ask me? Exactly right. Yeah, why don't you even ask me? Probably just get a kick out of it. Exactly. And it's and it's weird, and then they say they don't uh no, I don't. Yes, you do, you do every time.
SPEAKER_01If not, you wouldn't come and ask me if the way I look fat and myself.
SPEAKER_00Not only have you had not only I've told you not only have you done that, but then you go ask somebody or some other dude will come up, you won't even ask them anything, they'll just give you their their damn opinion, and there you go, just following that like a like a blind fucking moron. It's like whatever. But but but when I give mine for saying that I'm the asshole for noticing and saying that. But I'm I'm an asshole for feeling like she's being an asshole to me.
SPEAKER_01That's that mind shit. That's that mind shit. Exactly. You know how they are, bro.
SPEAKER_00Like I said, uh, we were together for seven years, but you know, you know what they say, right?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, women like to look busy when they're lying.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, they like to do a lot of things when they're lying, man. Yeah. Uh-huh.
SPEAKER_01Trust me. If you're if you're if you ask your girl something and she starts getting busy cleaning, washing dishes, all of a sudden, she's lying to you ass. Yeah. I learned I learned women like to look busy when lying. And then on top of that, they like to do this thing where like like you women like to do a lot of things.
SPEAKER_00Let's not be misogynistic here, buddy.
SPEAKER_01Definitely. And I love it, right? Like, can't live with them, can't live without them, right?
SPEAKER_00You know, can't slap them either.
SPEAKER_01I hope not. I hope not. I don't think it's ever working.
SPEAKER_00Can't slap some sense into them either because apparently that's against the law. You know, but yeah, you know, you kinda you you ask a question and they're over there slapping the shit out of you, ripping pants, ripping your pants from your from your pocket, or from the the po the pocket of your pants, just grabbing it and giving a good old yank, you got it out in the middle of the street.
SPEAKER_01And it's fine. It's cool. It's fine, yeah. It's completely fine. Take it. You better you're a man, you know what I mean? Yeah, right. Right.
SPEAKER_00You know, it's I've had to tell women before, I was like, yeah, dude. It sucks. It sucks. It's a it's tough out there for a man. It's tough out there for a man. You know what the thing is, why? I'd be like, because I mean, at least at least women have uh batter uh wife shelters. I mean, I don't know. I don't know what I uh where am I gonna go when you when you beat me up and kick me out?
SPEAKER_01And then the funny thing is like if you were to call the cops and say, Oh, she hit me, she'd be oh, you're a man, dude. Man the fuck up. Like, yeah, exactly. You can't do that much.
SPEAKER_00Like this little this little thing. Honestly, she couldn't. No, but it's just that's not the point. That's not exactly honestly. Most times she would come at me like, dude, she would lunge at me, kick, kick me, punch me, and she would end up hurting herself most times. Right. And here I am feeling like the asshole because she hurt herself. Right. Here you are trying to like band it around her. Oh baby, you okay? Yeah, yeah. She's the one that tried to come at you.
Double Standards And Conflict At Home
SPEAKER_01She's the one that tried to come at you. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00She didn't try, she came. She succeeded.
SPEAKER_01She succeeded.
SPEAKER_00She failed, but she completed, she she she came to completion. Right.
SPEAKER_01And it's not in a good way. But it sucks, dude, because it's just that compassion sometimes, like you said, like you know, you she hurt herself, and now you're like, oh baby.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, like after she just tried to kill you. Exactly right. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, dude. But it makes for good uh and for me, for you it's it's the whole uh when they're busy, they're busy when they're lying. For me, for me, it was uh ask a question and immediately get yelled at and ask why I'm being so stupid and why I'm being an asshole. A simple ass question is like who's that guy? Why are you being so stupid? Why are you being so jealous?
SPEAKER_01Like, what the f that's that reverse psychology because they try to make you feel bad for asking, but really that things that's like a defense. If she's if she's answering your question with a and with a No, I know you know what I mean. Yeah, I know, I know, I'm just saying like for the people listening. You know what I mean? If they're asking, come on, bro.

And I honestly, I'm that type of person. I'm I'm your friend with or without money, bro. Right. Just don't come at me with the oh, we're gonna go out. You never have money, that bullshit don't come at me like that.

I'm with Danny. Even worse. Don't tell who you would be. Don't tell who you would be, because then, dude, the worst part, the worst thing blowing up your phone, believe me, I know. I know the worst thing a woman could probably hear from their man is they're with their single friend.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. Who you with? Oh, yeah, I know. Who you with? Oh, were you guys at the strip club?
SPEAKER_01It's different when they call you and they're like, oh, I'm with this guy and they know it, they're married.
SPEAKER_00But when they call and you have to know good. Because you have to know good. That's right. I know. Believe me, I've always been always been the single well, it wasn't with friends, it was with cousin, and believe my cousin, believe me, the the cuz. Fuck, dude. Like, I don't know, these women have we end up getting like a certain fear opinion about me when I wasn't even the one taking them to these places. He's the one you're the one that dragged me. He's the one using me to fucking get away from you. Right, exactly.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, you know what I mean? And and you're the one that's the fucking asshole. Yeah, exactly right.

Bastard Squad: Growing Up Without Dads
SPEAKER_01And uh, you know, it's just where you get your cell phone too man. I'm cool right now. I appreciate you, but uh, it almost feels like a never win-win situation. You know? Even when you're right, you're wrong. Exactly, dude. Because you even though you proved your point, you're gonna you're gonna you're sleeping on the couch. How dare you, bro? How dare you prove a point? How dare you show me that I was fucking shit up. You know what I mean? Fuck that.
SPEAKER_00I know, believe me, I know.
SPEAKER_01But all we want is a beer. Come home, some beer, maybe some food.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Come home to that.
SPEAKER_00A good attitude, man. Fuck everything else, dude, because believe me, with my wife, I I couldn't even show up to that, bro. I showed up to shitty kids in in the dirty ass house and her in the same position she was in in the bed when I when I left in the mornings. No attitude, no good attitude. Yeah, you know, all I expected was her to just be up and you know, maybe have some. If she could at least have keep me company, and like, hey baby, how's your day? Right. I wouldn't mind her, like, you know, she didn't have to get up and do nothing. Just let me do it and be nice about it and keep me company. And I'm sorry, baby, at least. Nah, but not even that.
SPEAKER_01No, because they'll ask you to do something, and the minute you do it, they'll want to be in their nosy, like, why you doing it like this? Like, okay, you want to fucking do it? You're so fucking Mr. No It All.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, but it is what it is, you know.
SPEAKER_01You know, but that's why we're men.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, you know, how dare you? And the thing is how dare I have these thoughts or feelings.
SPEAKER_01Exactly, exactly. I feel like a lot of the times it's just you had to like just take it, just take it and don't even speak about it. Don't even and that's the thing about this show, bro. That's why I tell people, you know, I hope they really enjoy the show because this is a place where we could talk about it. Exactly right. Everybody's welcome.
SPEAKER_00There's there's yeah, everybody's welcome. And when we if we alienate people, we do apologize about that, but guess what? It's raw and uncut. Just let that that stop button is exactly where that play button was at when you first hit it.
SPEAKER_01Right.
SPEAKER_00And like we said, we appreciate everybody tuning. But we definitely know so much a men's health thing as much as uh let's get up and out of our funk and let's build ourselves up and let's find other let's find projects to get ourselves to and things to up improve ourselves with. Yeah, you know, dude, that's what the podcast is kind of about, kind of in a sense, for now. Yeah, you know, uh more it's and it has to do with starting up this podcast, you know, because that's what we we're interested in. We're interested in starting this podcast, and yeah, sometimes we might have emotional leakage and outbursts up in this uh up in this bitch, but it is what it is, right? You know, yeah, not definitely and yeah, we do apologize. And I wish we had called it. Honestly, I wish we had people that could call. I wish at some point I hope I can figure something like that out.
SPEAKER_01No, hopefully we we could uh you know, like we just started what, maybe two months.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, we're we're not qualified, we're not certified. No, we're definitely not. We're not certified, we're definitely certifiable, right? We're not certified.
SPEAKER_01Been around the block a couple times, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00Like, so you know, I like to think that a certifiable person has a little bit more credit and a little bit better input in into these matters than than a per than than a person with certified qualifications.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, you know what I mean? So it's all just a good time.
SPEAKER_00We've been through the fire and we've been refined by it. They say, what's up?
SPEAKER_01You know what they say, you know? Sometimes pain is good. Yeah, and um sometimes we all gotta go through some things, yeah, bro. And it makes us stronger.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, and guess what? You this is a bastard squad right here, bro. I grew up without a dad. I don't know about you. I know, I know you kind of have your issues with your dad. You don't have to go into him. But like, but from my understanding, is we're both bastards.
SPEAKER_01Right. No, shout out to my pops, he's cool, you know. It's just the thing about him is he likes he he likes to use my stepbrother as a middleman to kind of tell me, you know, and I'm not with that. I'm not with that. I'm more of a direct person, like, hey, we don't need a middleman, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00But what what I'm saying is that like yeah, we we never had a uh male figure there to guide us to give us any sort of guidance. So we're we're figuring this out as we go.
SPEAKER_01Oh, definitely, you know, and and and the thing is like I it sucks because I feel like what it is we're late bloomers in that sense.
SPEAKER_00Exactly. I know I'm a late bloomer, right? Right, no, all sorts of senses. Right, right, right. So we might not. I'll admit it. Right, no, definitely.
SPEAKER_01I own it. No, definitely. Because someone who comes with from and I'm not knocking nobody that comes with with their dad, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00Even if it's a dysfunctional ass family with an alcoholic, even those people have some sort of direction. Exactly. You know what I'm saying?
SPEAKER_01At least you know what not to want to be.
SPEAKER_00Like, I definitely don't want to be like him. Right, and at least they still have somebody there to somewhat protect them, exactly in some sense, exactly, or show them how to protect themselves.
SPEAKER_01Because a mother, dude, like I love my mom to death, dude, but it's just different.
SPEAKER_00It's completely different. I know. I know it's completely different, and that's why and even grandparents, it's a whole different thing, too. Even uncle. You know, they try to be there, but at the end of the day, what is the one thing that every bastard? I know I've said it. I know I've heard it. Every person I know that without a dad has said it. I don't know if you've ever said it, but what do we all say at one point or another when somebody tries to tries to be that person? You ain't my fucking father.
SPEAKER_01Exactly. Exactly.
SPEAKER_00And I get it because some people probably be like sucks, but at the same time, it's like, well, if I'm not gonna listen to my pops, what the fuck makes you think I'm gonna listen to you?
SPEAKER_01If my dad wasn't there to tell me for me to even listen. Exactly, dude. And and I get it. For me not to listen. And somebody's I get it. Some people are coming from good hearts, but it's like dude, they gotta understand. Like I like, dude, I get it, but it's like at the same time, you're not my dad, dude. Yeah, you know what I mean? If you're trying to give me advice, that's different. But if you're trying to, you know what I mean, dude. Fuck that, dude. I I don't I wouldn't even right now, dude. I wouldn't even listen to my pops if he kind of tried to tell me something. I'm like, no, dude, you know, you know, you know, it's different.
Life’s Pace, Money, And Meaning
SPEAKER_00I mean, we're both adults now, so you know, but that's still that shit still sticks with us, you know?
SPEAKER_01Right, no, no, definitely. It's just uh it's just a like a little hurdle to get over. But once you get over it, it's like yeah, once you get over it, it's like you know, that's what I said. Like when I seen him, I didn't even make a scene. I said, Hey, how you doing? It's pretty good.
SPEAKER_00And props to you, dude, because like I don't know my dad, period at all, bro. But never some of the things you told me, bro, damn, dude. Yeah, and not only that, dude, it's like I feel bad sometimes when I'm uh because I I find myself saying out loud, and some some some people just like damn after hearing the fucked up situations they go with through through with their dad. I find myself like not even thinking or saying it like maliciously, but just saying it just like, yeah, dude, it treats us like that. Well, I'm glad I don't have a dad, bro. And people like, dude, fuck you, bro.
SPEAKER_01It's funny, bro, because um, even some people with dads, they have a strange relationship. Like they might not be like super close, but they might not be like like some some some dads are super strict and they don't show no love to the kids.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, or some dads are just straight up assholes or just assholes, period.
SPEAKER_01You know what I mean? And this is why I wish we really had like a like someone call up, let us know about some dads are just assholes. Yeah, assholes. You know what I mean? But but like you said, dude, I mean, it still gives you that kind of guidance, you know what I mean? Like, okay, but without a pops, bro, you're kind of like you're you're figuring things out on your own. And uh you might you might not figure them out as quick, but I could see why why both parents are important. Uh-huh. You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00And I and I see that in uh kids who shout out to my grandma for me, because really my like my mom was there for me, uh no doubt, but my grandma raised me. Right. My grandm, my grandma raised me, my grandma made me. And you know, her teachings is what in the end of the day is what's gonna get me it's gonna what's what's gonna get me paid, paid me. You know, just kidding. You know, and uh but you know, all I'm saying is that it's she she played both figures both roles, right?
SPEAKER_01You know, oh because oh believe me, grandmas will put it down. Oh yeah, they'll put it down. They'll fucking grab you by the ear. Oh, they'll slap you around, bro. Yeah, yeah, yes you know what I mean.
SPEAKER_00They don't take none of that shit. Grandma's not granted my my mom beat the shit out of me too when it was needed, but it's different when grandma hits you. Yeah, no, it's hella different. You never hear her, you never hear her yelling or slapping. Right.
SPEAKER_01Because grandma's kind of the person you go to when you get into it with moms.
SPEAKER_00Well, like I said, my grandma raised me.
SPEAKER_01You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00Like she raised me, literally. Like I moved out to Colorado with her for about five years, and every time I would go to Mexico, it would be with my grandma. Yeah. My mom was always busy working, and that's you know, I'm not knocking her. She's your typical single Mexican woman.
SPEAKER_01Trying to make it happen.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. You know, it just uh it's funny how me and you had kind of have the same background.
SPEAKER_01In a way, yeah. No doubt. No parent, uh, no father raised by grandma.
SPEAKER_00No father, uh siblings are all I mean, you might be all. Yeah, we're not all like we're all brothers and sisters, but not really. Like if you look, if you put it down on paper, you there would be a little separate sprig of a branch out there. You know what I mean? Exactly.
Minimalism And What Really Matters
SPEAKER_01But you know, I grew up, you know, growing up, it's like I seen them since they were little, little children. No, exactly. That's what I'm saying.
SPEAKER_00Like I said, dude, I'm yeah, I'm eight years older than my other two sisters, eight and nine years older than the other two, eight to ten years older than the other two, right? So, like I was a single kid for eight years old, bro. I was spoiled. You know what I'm saying? Right. Then them two bitches came along and we're literally then them two. Now it's literally them them two bitches. Me and my sister's got some some history. I love I love them, but uh from afar. From afar.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. No, I hear you. Sometimes family can be like that. Sometimes family, you need to just love them from afar. Sometimes most of the time, yeah, all the time, bro. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. And um, and and and nobody's perfect, right? No family's perfect.
SPEAKER_00Matter of fact, I have more love for the from my dad's side of the family because I don't even know them than they do from my life. You know, you know, they they they had the good chance to stay the fuck away.
SPEAKER_01And they did, they sure did completely, completely that's the crazy part, you know what I mean? But life's a trip, dude. Life's a trip. Life's a trip, and I think we just need to enjoy it sometimes, you know, because it goes by pretty fast. And I feel like people forget to just stop and just enjoy. You know, we're all we're all kind of like, I feel like we're all like racing towards something.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, nothing really. Exactly. We're all racing to our deaths. That's what people don't realize. It's like, I'm glad that you're fucking screwing people over and and and fucking knocking over people to get over them and and make all this money. For what what's your end game with all this? Because it's never gonna be enough. Never, and you can only lock down so in enough people before one of them comes back at you.
SPEAKER_01Right.
SPEAKER_00Oh, definitely. So, what's the end game here? What's the end game? You know, some people will To die with a golden fucking spoon in your hand?
SPEAKER_01You can't take that.
SPEAKER_00Choking on a fucking pate or caviar, whatever the fuck your poison is? That's all I'm saying. What's what's the end goal in that?
SPEAKER_01I'll tell you what though.
SPEAKER_00To always be looking behind your back.
SPEAKER_01That's not a good feeling. It's definitely not a good feeling. And I you know, it's kind of both because most people I'm pretty sure they want to look behind their back, but when that money costs, and it depends on the money.
SPEAKER_00I mean, don't get me wrong, you know. I'd say say all these things, but if that money was there, I'd you know, I I would take it too. Uh I would really sure try as hell not to let it change me.
SPEAKER_01Oh, definitely. I think we all I think we all try to, you know, but but it it changes people. Oh, it does, yeah. It does. It does. Definitely. As much as we like to say it doesn't, I mean you think about it. You give you wake up with a million dollars and I think, come on now. I'm not saying I'm gonna be a total different person, but I'm definitely, you know what I mean? I and that's the thing that sucks.
SPEAKER_00Because I like to think I personally would like to believe that if I if I came up with that amount of money, I mean, should anything happen with this and we go worldwide and and we end up getting some sort of a special out of this. Yeah, some sort, some I don't even know. I can't even right now, I can't even fathom of where where this would end up, what our end game is to this, except for maybe hopefully, like as far as I'm thinking, is just sponsors at this point. Yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? Maybe we get some ass wipe money or some shit, dude. Could you imagine we got ass wipe money, bro? You know, that's that that's like uh, you know, a couple G's. Like a like, dude, some of these reads they'll pay you like five to ten thousand dollars, dude. Well, think about it this way for like so much time for like a like a uh fucking uh that one-month slot or something where you're just reading that shit, doc.
SPEAKER_01You know what I mean? It's like this. Imagine a kid who grew up and you know how it is, right? You never really have Christmas gifts, and then one day there's actually Christmas gifts under the tree. That's what I'm saying, man. Come on now. Most people would freak out.
SPEAKER_00It's like I said, dude, I honestly I really don't think because I'm a minimalist to begin with. It's not out of out of I've had I've had I've lived comfortably, I've had enough money to be able, not not enough to like come live without worrying, but like to be to have what I to make myself look richer than I am, but I'm not one of those types of people, and plus like I I look at my place, dude. It's like I finally got a place, I've had it for a year now, and really the more the most I've improved on of the things that I own is this laptop in this little studio. Aside from that. Well, you know, I if I moved up if I were to move out of here, dude. The only thing I'd be moving out with is my guitar, my both my guitars, a couple of suitcases, and that's about it, dude. And this laptop in the studio. That's it. That's it, bro.
SPEAKER_01The show must go on.
SPEAKER_00Not even a bed, not even furniture. Literally, just barely closed, bro.
SPEAKER_01You know, I feel like I mean, you don't you don't really need too much to be happy. I'm not saying you, but I'm just I don't, I really honestly I don't.
SPEAKER_00I really don't, but women do.
SPEAKER_01Let me tell you something about that. They need their nails done, their hair did on it.
SPEAKER_00I need all sorts of shit. Here we know their buddy beer me. Guinea me. Hit me. Where are we at there? We almost at the end there, big shoot.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. We're looking about uh one more left. Yeah, one more left, and um you can have at her if you want her. No, I'm cool right now. I'm chilling. Um that sucks. Yeah, I don't know. I I know you uh we had this thing going on, but uh what thing is that this thing of ours?
Teasing The Little Italy Food Video
SPEAKER_00This thing of ours, right? Where this thing of ours? This Cosa Nostra? Something like that, right? Up. I was trying to get some some Cosa Nostra happening over there at the sub shop today, but I'll tell you what.
SPEAKER_01Oh, you know what? At that sub hey, we were you know we're coming, we don't want to spoil nothing, but we are coming with you guys with a little preview. Just a little video. Where were we today? Little Italy.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, we went to Little Italy.
SPEAKER_01Uh we don't want to get too much into it because we're gonna do that.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, let's just say that. Let's just leave it at that. We we we can drop some hints here and there already. If you guys follow the podcast, then you'll know what's coming up soon enough. But we will give a hint that is uh you will finally get to see our faces.
SPEAKER_01Dad, and when you do see our faces, we actually did come with something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We didn't just come with hey, this is we didn't just come at you with no bullshit. Right. So stay tuned. Correct. Right, stay tuned for that. Like we say here, bro. We all I always appreciate everybody that listens and tunes in, and we try to make it the best here. You know, we we are uh D A D.
SPEAKER_00You ready to call it there, big shooter button?
SPEAKER_01What's up? No, no, no.
SPEAKER_00Okay, just make sure because got a little bit up to the city. Just reminding people, you know.
SPEAKER_01Whenever you want to call it, you call it.
SPEAKER_00I'm letting you know. Well, we got like 20 minutes left on this. Oh, that's fine. I you know, we keep it rolling. Keep it rolling.
SPEAKER_01This is a pretty nice day, you know. The thing about me, bro, is like so. Next month time goes back an hour, right? And it's pretty cool because I get an extra hour of sleep. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00It's just kind of, but not really because where do they do that? They do that like what, is it Sunday night or Saturday night? Is it Sunday? Sunday or one, yeah, like Sunday night. It's usually Sunday nights that they do. You know? Yeah.
SPEAKER_01It's just the sun goes down super early, dog.
SPEAKER_00And I guess like I feel like, dude, it's I mean, I guess it doesn't really matter for me because I go to sleep early regardless. So I get my sleeping no matter what. I only need like six to seven hours of sleep, and even then I'll get up and probably for an hour or two, and then I'll go to sleep or take a nap for like an hour before I have to go to work. That's my I hear you, you know.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, no, I hear you. No, it's funny because the older I get, the more I feel like I need power naps. Yeah, I used to be able to do it.
SPEAKER_00I mean, if anything, I would rather do a power nap while it's still early in the morning and the sun's down. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Then you know, then when the sun's already up and it's halfway through the day because that that throws me off. It feels like a waste of day, you know. Not only that, but then you can't get to sleep during the night, right? Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01When you're when you're when you're you go to sleep till way later. Right, when you need to. And um, you know, one thing about here is uh we do like to tell people, you know, take care of uh take care of your duties and take care of yourself, get some sleep. Take care of yourself, yeah. Get some good sleep.
SPEAKER_00This is a self-help episode. Sleep is important, bro. I'll tell you. Hopefully, we can help we can uh motivate people to listen to their bodies and listen to themselves, to their mood swings and all that other stuff. And there's one more thing I'm gonna right, I want to talk about the whole mood swings and this.
SPEAKER_01You know, when you meet a girl, bro, and you kind of want to do better to better yourself to be good for her, and then it's funny because then when she breaks your heart, it's like fuck that, now I'm doing it for me. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_00It's funny how how now now that you're at that point, if you've gotten to that point, then stay at that point. Now, now I don't mean don't progress from there, but keep that mentality, right? Exactly, and do it for you now. Build it and keep building for yourself. And if you meet the next woman, it I promise you, it's gonna be because of that work that you put in. I promise you. Exactly. And then it's it that once you get into that next relationship, then it's not gonna be you trying to be make yourself something for that person because you already made yourself enough for yourself, right? Oh, definitely, you know, definitely don't find your happiness and yourself, your self-worth and somebody else. Find it in yourself.
SPEAKER_01There you go. That's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about. Do it for you, and like you said, yeah, it's it's nice because I feel like a lot of the time, like most of the time, like me, so personally, I'll go out throughout the the days, kind of like, you know, in my own zone and like thinking about I should do this, I should do that, or I should work out a little bit more. And for some reason, when I meet a chick that kind of is digging me, I that's when I really start hitting it. Yeah, sex because then then bam, she breaks your heart, and it feels like damn, I should have just been doing this for myself.
Seasons, Sleep, And Power Naps
SPEAKER_00My my past areas has been that uh that I'll work at myself. Uh I'll I mean, I'll I'll I'll I'll get my gains in. I'm talking like I'll hit the gym, I'll go at it hard, I'll I'll have some self-discipline, some sort of of a system, routine built into place. I'll be building myself up pretty damn good. And then I get into a relationship and you hit that happy phase, and that's just happy, going out to eat all the time, being silly, eating and fucking and eating and fucking and eating and fucking. And you're pretty soon before you know it, it's just eating and going out to eat and spending your time eating and drinking. And yeah, and then uh because I'll admit I'm a quick fat. It takes a lot of work to get myself down to a certain weight, and as soon as I break out of my diet routine, and as soon as I have one bite of a of a Big Mac or uh one Big Mac, I I tell you what, I it looks like I gained like 50 pounds. And and that's the whole thing is that it's about trying to find a routine, keeping your routine, keeping it all going, finding satisfaction and happiness in yourself and self-worth in yourself, and and believe me, that'll definitely help get you out of a slump. But definitely for me, that's that's always been what it is. You hit the happy, the happy zone, the happy face, and whereas before you you've been going to the gym, then you meet this chick, you've been hitting it hard, you've been working on yourself hard, you've helped build some sort of routine, then you meet you meet a woman. They can throw you on the and and you're still you're still kind of working on your you're still you know there, but you slowly you start losing your routine. You start right because you're talking on the phone two hours in the morning and fucking three hours at five hours at night, right? Going to going to sleep at night, and then seeing you on the weekends and just drinking wine and going out to eat and just getting fat and sitting down watching movies and only fucking like uh uh like five percent of all that fatness off. You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_01No, I hear you.
SPEAKER_00And then and then the routine happens at the week all over again, you know. Just wake up just to talk to her for three hours, and there goes your morning exercise. Yeah, and then you know, you you you get to work and you're hanging up, right? And then you get out of work and you're calling her because she's already on the road, and not even even while you're still talking and texting on the phone all day long, all day long. And it feels good. Oh, I know, it feels great, it's but it's great, you you almost you forget, but when you go from that to like just like yeah, you she fucking get sweat, sweep them at the legs, jump in, you know what I mean, and they hit you like that, they hit you like that, you know what I mean?
Do It For You, Not For Them
SPEAKER_01One day they just bam, and you're like, whoa, what the f what the fuck just happened? I guess I'm going back to the gym, huh? Is that dreaming? And you know what? And it's crazy because some of the best relationships do feel like a dream. You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00You wake up and you honestly, to be honest with you, this felt like the first relationship I ever I was ever in, to be honest with you. And yeah, every other relationship before that was just we either wasn't a relationship or was me trying to find my happiness in somebody else.
SPEAKER_01And you know what, uh, I think that's where we go wrong is trying to find happiness in the city.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, but you don't you don't learn that you have to learn through hopefully you don't have to get married and and to have to learn to to that, you know? Right. Hopefully you're patient enough and strong enough and uh self-sustaining enough to like go through your heartbreaks, heartaches, heart pains. And they're worse when you're young. They are they are, don't get me wrong. But you know, that's why it's best just it's like my it's like my dear grandma told me you lose a lot of money chasing after women, but you never lose women chasing after money.
SPEAKER_01Amen, brother.
SPEAKER_00And that's the truth. It's the very exact same truth, yeah. Believe me, yeah.
SPEAKER_01That's the truth, and uh, those are wise words.
SPEAKER_00Hard words slip by, but wise words indeed. Wise words, you know. And it's true. I mean, you hear it, and you're like, yeah, damn, somebody give that woman the Nobel Free Spring. Yeah, no, that's the truth. Exactly. And it's the truth. Oh, and the other thing too that made a lot of sense is like to uh to a woman, neither are your love or are your money give.
SPEAKER_01Never that. Never that. You better save a penny for yourself to two pennies.
SPEAKER_00And if you ever want if you want to live a happy life, you have to lie. If you want to be happy in your marriage, you gotta lie. Not nothing crazy. You gotta lie, dude. No, no, but a lie is a lie, right?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah, but there's a difference. Like, did you sleep with the bitch or am I fat type of lie? You know what I mean? No, you're not fat. She might look a little, you know what I mean? But you're not gonna tell her that unless you want to sleep on a couch. But then there's a lie, like, oh, were you texting her? No, I wasn't texting her. That's kind of a bigger lie. You know what I mean? But hey, you're the ones, you gotta lie, right? If you want to live happily, you gotta lie. Yeah, no, definitely, definitely. You know, because there's no reason, there's no point in telling the truth. Exactly, right? Uh, you know, and and and sometimes it's better not to have to lie, you know, but sometimes you do, like you say, yeah. Sometimes you just like you tell the truth, bro. It's not gonna work out for you. That's and then the the thing is they'll tell you they want the truth and they can handle the truth. But the moment you tell them the truth, oh, hell breaks loose.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah. The way I've seen it is you uh you court a woman to help you to help so that you each and help improve each other.
SPEAKER_01Right.
SPEAKER_00But you marry a woman because you because the acceptance is already there of who you are. You understand what I'm saying?
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Some people don't know that. Some people don't understand that. Like some people think that that the acceptance is gonna come later when it's not. It's like if it's not there before you marry her, it's not there at all. It's never gonna be there. Because uh to honestly, to her, you just you just played your you just showed your hand. You know that you don't ever want to show your full hand. You never want to show your full hand. You always want to have one in the mouth. Either are your money or are you love give. Never go all in.
SPEAKER_01This ain't fucking poker. You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00And even in poker, yeah, it damn near feels like it. I I mean I don't know about you. It does.
SPEAKER_01It feels like it. And uh it feels like that, but you know, the more you play a certain thing, the more you you and when you don't throw Jimmy on, that's that's going all in. Oh in. You know, uh gators, gators, women wear jimmies, you know. All my women wear jimmies. Yeah, it's funny. Shit. You know, but you know, it's always life's a journey, and I just want to remind people to just take it easy, dude. Just enjoy the journey.
SPEAKER_00It sucks because you have to go through your lows to get to your highs. Oh, definitely. Honestly, that's what people don't understand is pain is a part of the journey. Yes, it sucks. It does, and boo-hoo, and yes, you want to tell the whole world, and I get it, but you it's not till you realize that nobody gives a fuck about your pain, and then you gotta go home and lick your own damn wounds and fucking build yourself back up and try it all over again.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, and that's the that's the that you know, that's life, bro. And I know sometimes it is hard to get yourself back up, but I feel like you just you got to.
SPEAKER_00I mean, I guess that's just my understanding as a bastard. You know what I'm saying?
SPEAKER_01But just as a just just as men in general. I mean, even though come on, dude. Everybody goes through it, dude.
SPEAKER_00I I know some people that go through that are older than older than me, they go through a divorce and their family's taking care of them and all that other bullshit. I'm telling you, bro. I'm telling you, I don't know them specifically, but you hear these stories and it's like, what the fuck, dude? I guess, bro. I guess, dog. I guess like it must be nice to have dad, I guess. I don't know.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, it must it must be nice to have somewhere to fall back on. Must be nice, yeah. But it just sucks because I I feel like, in my opinion, I'm more of a I don't want to have to fail, go back, or I don't want to have to go back. I wanna I wanna if I leave my if I leave the nest, I want to make sure that I can I'm stable, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00Oh dude, I left at 16, bro. Believe me. When I had to move back in, dude, it was the hardest thing in the world, bro. And that was like literally like 20 something odd years later, almost 30 years later, bro. But at 16 it had to be done, yeah, dude. I had to do it, bro. I had to do it. That's tough. I had to do it. That's tough. When you're the male, the only male in the family, and you're damn near an adult. At least at 16, you think you're man, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01You think you know the whole world. Like, I got it all figured out.
SPEAKER_00You need to get some money. Fuck that. Ain't nobody gonna be putting it in my mind. You know, that's what you know saying. Ain't nobody gonna be coming in here acting like they fucking you know, you shit like that.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah, no, definitely. You know, but it's a it's an uh it's a learning experience, especially when we're young. We're so hard-headed. All right, exactly.
SPEAKER_00But nah, I was putting it up and that one not with me, bro. Don't fix me up in that one, dog. I keep forgetting, but that's all right. You know what I mean? Teachers hated me for that one. Everything I say goes in one ear out the other. Love me, love me. Stays in there. Shut up, Damn.
SPEAKER_01No, but definitely, man. It's always a good time. It's always you know, you gotta find you gotta find a beautiful in life. You can't it's you know, it's hard, it's tough, but there are some funny things in the tragic. There are funny things in in, you know, pain and like it's just some sometimes it's just the simplest things, you know, that just turns so complicated when it could be so simple. Yeah, yeah. Yes or no? Not this, I don't know, not this fucking bird just chirped on my window, not this that's what I'm saying, dude.
SPEAKER_00It's like we didn't have parents, we didn't have a daddy to like really show us that get my keyway, yeah. You know what I mean? Fuck that. You know what I mean? Here's a beer.
SPEAKER_01The fucking seven years old daddy forget about it, that's it, right?
SPEAKER_00I mean, I don't know. I think that's what they call it. I don't know. Right, right. I've never had a dad. I mean, I'm gonna let me. Come on, homie. I don't know.
SPEAKER_01Is that what they I don't know what they I mean shit, me homie?
SPEAKER_00I mean, I call my son son, but right, right, right. I don't know, you know. That's kind of awkward. But that that might be me uh overreacting with my son. I don't I don't know.
SPEAKER_01No, but it's definitely kind of awkward, like if you hit a certain age.
SPEAKER_00Calling your son the son, yeah.
SPEAKER_01No, no, no, no, not that at all. Like if you were like you never met your past, right?
SPEAKER_00And then somehow, some way you I think at this age, dude, them food knows better than becoming around right. You know what I mean? Whether he's been around secretly or not, dude. I think he knows at this point, uh no, he don't want yeah, I I he don't want none of this, and I know I don't want to. I don't want none of that.
SPEAKER_01Definitely, definitely.
SPEAKER_00Which is good for me. That's fine, dude. Right, right. Because honestly, like one of the things that kind of as a little kid, one of the things that being a Beatles freak that kind of got me in my in my early teens through all that bullshit was that like John Lennon. John Lennon saw his mom and his dad. It was definitely his dad was a sailor. And his mom his mom was still still pretty young.
SPEAKER_01Right.
Heartbreak To Habits That Last
SPEAKER_00So he was raised, she gave up, gave up her rights to him and left him with her with his aunt. And uh but this was just before this happened. The dad left his dad left for the last time, like, because he was leaving and he said, I'm leaving. This is it, I'm done. I'm gone for good. I'm getting on this boat, I'm never coming back. I'm just gonna go do my live my savory life. And and he took him out, he took little John at like I think five, like I forget, like six, seven, eight years old, took him and said, You can cut come with me or you can go with your mom. Gave him a choice.
SPEAKER_01I think I yeah, yeah. I heard about that.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, he wrote a song about it. It's I mean, that song got me through a lot of bullshit. It's it's what do you go with at the end? His mom? He with his dad, he had no choice. He decided to stay. He chose his mom, and his mom gave him up to his dad. Yeah, dude. That's that's sad. Yeah, sucks. That's not sad, right? It is what it is. I mean, because if it wasn't for that, uh John Lennon wouldn't have had honestly, he wouldn't have gotten, don't think he would have had the the musical, the the uh freedom and the liberty to to uh to experience music the way he did and go to the the art school that he did and all that other stuff and meet also meet Paul McCartney and all those other guys and stuff.
SPEAKER_01Hey, something sometimes things happen for a reason.
SPEAKER_00And so like so from like a certain age to like he was like 16 or 17, he didn't know his mom. I think from like his eight or eight years old. I might be wrong, but I know like he saw her every once in the blue moon when she would come around. Right, and his aunt was a very strict person, like very Catholic, very Bible thumping, very proper, very uh strict, very uh formal, everything. And like she didn't even like that he he was got into music, even though he gave her she gave him the ability to to take uh musical lessons and all that other stuff. Right. But like he yeah, it was like in a sense that's I love John Lennon for that fact. His music is great, his lyrics are great. Every Beatle is is great in their own sense, right? But I relate more to John because of that whole story right there. Right.
SPEAKER_01No, yeah, and uh it's always it's always a good thing. I mean, not a good way, you know, it's always cool when you could relate to an artist, and I think a lot of people shall like tend to drift towards certain artists because they could relate to their music, they can relate to whatever they are.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, the music, no, it really was the music, but I mean when you start getting into the music, is what got me into them because you get you you want to know what is it that drove these people to drive these songs, and it's obviously your past experiences, right? Definitely, so so yeah. I mean, and now we have having heard all that, it was like I'm not alone. I'm I'm not an only bastard after all. And it feels good to know you're not alone, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_01Because I feel like a lot of people do go out there thinking, like, damn, you know, like is it just me?
SPEAKER_00This cap we're off there, big shoots, if you don't mind.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, no, definitely. Um definitely feels good to feel like you belong or feel like you under like somebody understands you.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah, of course. Yeah, right. Yeah, but you know, and it is what it is. It it sucks because like I said, you end up having to fan for yourself, because I know I know that I've been through certain situations in my life that for like that situation alone forced me to to grow up to uh faster than I was supposed to. Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01I mean, you know, especially growing up without a pops.
Grandma’s Wisdom And Hard Truths
SPEAKER_00Yeah, and and even even you knowing your dad, I'm sure kind of forced you to grow up and uh you know, for especially since you have you know brothers and stuff like that are I don't know how far apart you are from your other brother, I'm not really asking you to have to tell me, but uh from what I see it's not that far apart. No, they're not that far apart. Exactly. So it's it's like yeah, right. So imagine for my sense it's a different story because then you know, I'm not trying to be like, oh I'm uh boohoo for me, you know, all this other shit, but it's like then you get your sisters when you're like nine years old. You know what I'm saying? And you don't have there's no father figure around. Yeah. So that kind of forces you to grow up a little bit faster. Definitely. Do you understand what I'm saying? Yeah, that definitely does force you. Especially when like you're walking around. Because I remember walking around. We I grew up in Pilson with my mom. I grew up in Pilston, walking around. And my mom was a very good looking woman back in back in those days, you know. She was in her early 20s and stuff when I was like five or six. And we'd be walking around Chicago or whatever, never dude, back in the fucking 80s, bro. Whistles, hey, what's up, mommy? All that bullshit, you know. And dude, that was my I would turn around all the time, just flip motherfuck, flipping motherfuckers off, dude. I think that's where like my my straight up like macho fucking fuck you, like when I think somebody's like, you know, trying to fix that. Cat calling, yeah, that's where that shit comes from. Dude, I punched a lot of fucking balls, dude. When I was and she took me to a lot of dates, and I punched a lot of dicks, a lot of dudes in their dicks and balls, bro. I'm not gonna lie, bro. I was using the motherfuckers in my punching bag. I did not give a fuck, dude. Right. Back up for my mama. Yeah, dude. I'm not lying, dude. I'm not lying. I mean, don't get me wrong. I I remember seeing my first movie. Men at Work was the first movie I that I remember like consciously seeing. Yeah, Men at Work. That's um Charlie Sheen uh Emilio Emilio Estevez Brothers. Sheen Estevez Brothers film. Really, it was a decent film, right? A couple other movies from around that era too. But this was those times where like in Chicago, where like uh a theater was like literally one theater that like had different show times for different movies. You know, it wasn't a cineplex or nothing like that, it was literally just one big ass theater, like a theater, you would walk into like a theater with a stage, but it also had a movie screen. Sometimes they would use it as a play theater, and sometimes they would use it as a movie screen theater. Right. And then over time, when when those things when the cineplexes and multiplexes came out, that those things went out of business, then they got bought up by triple X businesses. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, now you have yeah, that got Pee Wee Herman hemmed up.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, Pee Wee always over.
SPEAKER_00Rest in peace, though, man.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, rest in peace.
SPEAKER_00No, I grew up with Pee Wee Herman, and I get it, I understand. That was a freaky thing, but come on, we all do freaky things, bro. Come on, and you know, he's not he's not the only one that went that's been to fucking dark ass theaters like that. You know, there's a reason why those fucking theaters are sticky. Floors are sticky, bro. Yeah, no doubt. That's for sure.
SPEAKER_01That's for sure.
SPEAKER_00That's all I'm saying, man. That's all I'm saying. We all have our freakiness, man.
SPEAKER_01It's just who's gonna match it.
SPEAKER_00Well, it's not even that. Just because it's not your kink, bro, doesn't mean he just cause it's not your kink doesn't mean he's he's a degenerate person.
SPEAKER_01Right, no, definitely. There's nothing um nothing wrong with having a little you know what I mean? We're all human, we all make mistakes, we all have uh urges and different things we like.
SPEAKER_00But yeah. Good stuff, man. Good stuff.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, no, dude. It's been uh it's been a journey on this show from the beginning to to finish, and we're not even finished.
SPEAKER_00We're not even we're not even we're not even we're not even half we're not even a we're not even an eighth of the way, bro.
SPEAKER_01This is just a this is just the beginning.
SPEAKER_00We haven't even brushed the surface yet.
SPEAKER_01Exactly, exactly. So we really do appreciate whoever tunes in with us.
Acceptance, Marriage, And Boundaries
SPEAKER_00Yeah, well, I mean, hopefully I that's how I feel. Yeah, I mean, this is eight A studios, this is a DIY studios, just so you guys know. Sometimes you guys might hear background noise. I do live above a bar. We try to keep things as professional as possible, but we're still trying to learn things here and there. We do have a video like we plugged in earlier coming up of me pigging the fuck out. Yeah, so I figured what what bet what better way for you guys to get to know us for the first time and see our faces than to see me just fucking uh deep throat in the sub.
SPEAKER_01And then and you know what they say, you know, it looks bigger in the in the refer. You know, because I remember sometimes you you you would like you see somebody, oh, they're doing a channel to do it. Yeah, right, right, right, right. You know, whatever it may be. We don't want to get to it.
SPEAKER_00It's that fish lens, bro. It's that fish eye lens.
SPEAKER_01You know, you ever see something, you're like, oh, I think I could do that. I think I could do that, and then you show up in person, you're like, yeah, you know what? This shit looks actually a little bit.
SPEAKER_00It's like in porn, bro. That's why, that's why, like, when they when they when they move up to the dude, close up to the dude, and his penis is at the bottom of the screen, is because that's where the curved angle of the lens is to make it look like it's like four or five inches bigger than it is, all right, Holmes? That and that's what the sub was like, bro.
SPEAKER_01That shit dude, that shit was no joke. No, it wasn't what I was doing. It was curving at the end, wasn't it? We don't want to give too much, we don't want to give too much out because we are gonna do um uh we are gonna do one where we do.
SPEAKER_00That motherfucker had its way with me, dude. Dude, that shit had you sweating.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, we're we don't want to get too much into detail because you know we're not gonna read it.
SPEAKER_00Ah, poor kid, he's not gonna get it done. That's when I can tell. Like, she started, she's like, oh yeah, you don't have to finish it off. Hey, but we're just giving you guys a little sneak peek of what's to come. Angie, shout out to Angie, shout out to her, sweet lady. I wish I could have left a little bit more money, but I honestly I thought I was gonna be walking out with an extra 50, so that's my bad.
SPEAKER_01Next time, there's always next time. But you know, you know, it's always we always the first time you ever do something, it's always like in our head, like, oh, I think I could do it like this, and then boom, you go on, it's it's different.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I gotta foot in. You know? And that was good. Which honestly, it's like I kept saying, I said like two or three times throughout the video, dude. These things aren't like subway Italian subs, Italian meatball subs, where you eat one and you you you know, you eat one in five minutes, and it's like you can go for another one. No, completely different, dude. Completely different. I mean, don't get me wrong, I ate that first foot, like like I like I was eating at a a subway uh Italian meatball sub. Right. But dude, uh when I got to that third one and everybody was sitting there, we'll talk about it later. Right. No, no, that's that's what I want to save the thing. Let's keep them in suspense. Right. I want to save that for the next time we uh so stay tuned for an actual video where you get to see our ugly mugs for the first time. And we take the pockets on the road.

SPEAKER_01Exactly. Do your research.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, don't go, don't go in there because believe me, I watched quite a few. The only thing that got me going into doing this was I'm an avid beer beard meets food viewer.

I noticed that it wasn't too far away from my old neighborhood, and I said, Well, let's try it out. It looked like I could do it, and I you know, honestly, I got a foot in. You know, next time around, in a couple of months, maybe next year. Right. If not in a couple of months, maybe next year. Right. I will go try it out again for sure. But I am definitely gonna train out. Um, you know, I think I'm gonna start exercising a little bit more for sure. Oh, definitely, yeah.
