  Come. That was awesome. I asked him if he had allergies. He was like, I don't know. Got allergies? Lead? I have a massive pee hole. I'm convinced that there are people that intrinsically are dying to be arrested for no reason. Oh, nobody knows this secret? Okay, never mind. Fuck you. Nobody knows that secret.

• 0:18The Fat Electrician?

  Hey, are you upset you missed out on the live show tour?

• 0:20Speaker 01

  Well, don't be because we still have one show left to do.

• 0:23The Fat Electrician?

  Brandon, where is that show at?

• 0:25Speaker 01

  Beautiful Las Vegas.

• 0:26The Fat Electrician?

• 0:40The Fat Electrician?

  So come hang out, have a blast, and then have a little SHOT Show experience too, right, Brandon?

• 0:45Speaker 01

  In fact, I would say the best part of SHOT Show.

• 0:47The Fat Electrician?

  The drinking and hanging out.

• 0:48Speaker 01

  Literally, the only part we care for anymore. So if you want to get the chance to hang out with some of your favorite people in the gun sphere and also just have a fucking good time and see one of our live shows, go check out the tickets. They're available down in the description.

  Yay! Come check us out!

• 1:00Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah, we got it. Ready?

• 1:02The Fat Electrician?

  You're so embarrassing. Mango! Everyone knows how this works. Do a new one. Three, two, one.

• 1:11The Fat Electrician?

  I was a second behind. Embarrassing, embarrassing.

• 1:15Speaker 02

  Oh, it's so good.

• 1:18The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, it's nice. That is not bad. Still not Cody. Hi, everyone. Thank you for coming to the Unsubscribe Podcast. I'm joined here today by Mr. Eli Double Tap, our old friend, Mr. Leon Lush, and our new friend, Mr. Anthony, AKA EMTbadge502.

• 1:36Speaker 01

  Guilty.

• 1:37The Fat Electrician?

  Yes. Nailed it. It's 502 or 592. Fucking... Roll the dice. By the time I get to EMTBAD, it's like it auto fills, okay? I'm sorry. Allow it.

• 1:48Speaker 03

  You know what's a good username? Let me add some U. A lot of numbers in there.

• 1:54Speaker 01

  It's classic like Aon Twitter where it's like user 5786745632.

• 1:59Speaker 03

  Do I think I'm getting shadow banned? No.

• 2:02Speaker 04

  On every other platform, it's just badge502, but somebody on Instagram decided they needed that. So that's just the luck I drew. And 502 is my actual badge number. I couldn't get away from it.

• 2:11The Fat Electrician?

  Has anybody ever asked for your badge number like they asked for cops?

• 2:14Speaker 04

  Quite literally, yeah.

• 2:15The Fat Electrician?

  Have they?

• 2:15Speaker 04

  Hundred percent.

• 2:15The Fat Electrician?

  I want to hear the story.

• 2:17Speaker 04

  Uh, we go to houses, obviously, all the time, and every so often, it doesn't matter how nice you are, how courteous you are to people.

• 2:23Speaker 02

  You know, sometimes you get that person who just doesn't love you and you just step back and let the other EMTs handle it. And they're like, I want your badge number. I want your name. I want your dad's name. I want your next door neighbors. And I'm like, leave me alone.

• 2:33The Fat Electrician?

  How dare you come and try and help me?

• 2:35Speaker 02

  Yeah, you called me.

• 2:38The Fat Electrician?

  Jobs I'm not jealous of.

• 2:40Speaker 03

  Dude, this is, we got two amazing individuals. Uh, both now are doing, you're, you're expanding into different content. Now you're like, hey, let's, so let's figure out like, hey, let's break down cop videos. Let's have some people being stupid. Let's also do the families.

• 2:54The Fat Electrician?

  Very, very polite way of saying, let's exploit my wife's innocence on the internet.

• 3:00Speaker 02

  I'm glad you said it because she would have been like, well, Nick said it, not me.

• 3:05Speaker 02

  Yeah, we do a little bit of everything. I mean, I've been in the game for a while, had the ups and downs, typical roller coaster of being a YouTuber. But, uh, she was courteous enough to, at my behest in like 2018, be like, honey, why don't you just sit down with me and see what happens? Do what I do and we'll do it together. And she's a very like, not online person, doesn't like cameras, blah, blah, blah. But fast forward five, six years, she's got a little niche audience that loves her, you know? She's very, she's much more comfortable on camera. So we sit down, shoot the shit and it's kind of that relationship. Like the squabble, the banter between us, I think that people like. And then, uh, yeah, as far as what I do, I'm just throwing pickles, like I've said this before, throwing pickles at the fridge, seeing what sticks. You know, I'm just trying new shit.

• 3:49The Fat Electrician?

  I, I watch, I actually, I actually watched quite a few of your videos and there's nothing funnier than when your wife asks you a question. And I can just see your brain start calculating and you like hit pause on the video and you're like, I need to explain like a level nine meme to somebody that has no internet history background. Yeah, it started when we killed this gorilla in 2016 and then there was.

• 4:14Speaker 02

  Dude, the, the, the best moment, and I'll never forget, I still give a shit to this day. It was like right at the height of like Marvel supremacy, like in, uh, what was it? Infinity War, Endgame had just come out and it was like Thanos was the most popular bad guy of all time. And we're sitting down and we're doing a video and a Thanos meme comes up and she's like, who's that?

• 4:33The Fat Electrician?

  Here we go.

• 4:33Speaker 02

  And I was just like, excuse me.

• 4:37Speaker 02

  Who's Thanos? She's like, yeah, who's Thanos? And then so ever since that day. I was like, snap, I pulled out the fucking power lines. I was like, so I absolutely annihilated her on camera and it was very fun. And I was like, yeah, this could work.

• 4:52Speaker 03

  Bully.

• 4:53Speaker 02

  Into the like five years, five years later to this day, I'm like, oh, we're gonna have a Thanos moment right now, aren't we? Yeah.

• 4:59Speaker 04

  Bullying is love. Love is bullying.

• 5:01Speaker 02

  Yeah, she's, she's just that type of like normie Instagram bitch that's just like, oh, my fun little like recipes and like, here's this fun thing. And I'm on like X, like watching people get murdered and like doing all this dumb shit, like going down rabbit holes. And then we get together for a couple hours a week and watch it together. And I'm like, oh yeah, I've seen this a million times. She's like, what's this? I'm like, I don't have the time to explain it to you. So we're just gonna move on to the next one. So it's a fun dynamic that works between the two of us and is, is, as corny as it might sound, it's like, having done it for like, like five or six years now, it's cool as a married guy to like, have an excuse to sit down and kind of like banter when you check for a couple hours a week in a way that's like a business, but also in a way that like, you're like, you're

• 5:44Speaker 02

  doing it because it makes money, but also it like, there's been some really cool, organic moments that have come from it, which has been really cool looking back. Yeah.

• 5:52Speaker 03

  You get like, it is, Nick, you started incorporating your wife, I incorporate Sav. And those are those things where you, it strengthens your relationship because I think when you're really solidified in like a family relationship, like, and it shows on camera, everyone's happy.

• 6:06Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah.

• 6:07Speaker 03

  And then others like, oh man, that's dope. I want that.

• 6:10Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 6:11Speaker 03

  So just have fun with it.

• 6:12The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah. Yeah. I bring my wife on to bond, not for money laundering and tax evasion. That's why my wife's on, so we can bond.

• 6:19Speaker 02

  I don't see two big bags of money next to my wife. No, that definitely not me. Certainly not. I don't exploit her in every single thumbnail possible.

• 6:27Speaker 03

  She went on, uh, on UnSub, she went on stage and the audience like.

• 6:31The Fat Electrician?

  Went fucking nuts.

• 6:33Speaker 02

  That they did. Yeah.

• 6:36The Fat Electrician?

  Just walked in because she's in all my ads. She delete me. She's walked outside at the whole crowd. Yeah.

• 6:41Speaker 03

  And she like came out, she said, oh my God.

• 6:43Speaker 02

  Oh my God. She rode that high all night.

• 6:47The Fat Electrician?

  I'll tell, I'll, I'll text her.

• 6:48Speaker 02

  Honey, honey, views are different this month. Can you wear that, can you wear that low cut shirt that you love?

• 6:53The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 6:53Speaker 02

  Use her down.

• 6:54The Fat Electrician?

  Oh, holy shit.

• 6:56Speaker 03

  That is my favorite story. Well, you have, yeah, we're allowed to talk about it.

• 7:00The Fat Electrician?

  I mean, I'll ask her later. We can cut it out. I'll let you know.

• 7:04The Fat Electrician?

  My, okay, my wife does not do, like, my wife has half a margarita at the Mexican restaurant at lunch and she is, I'm, my arms feel heavy.

• 7:13Speaker 02

  I'm drunk.

• 7:14The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 7:16The Fat Electrician?

  I love you, but this is why you're the DD. Like, I'm not not drinking so you can have half a margarita.

• 7:21Speaker 02

  My wife's the exact same.

• 7:22The Fat Electrician?

  Trash.

• 7:22Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 7:23The Fat Electrician?

  Like, yeah. Uh, anyway, so we go out, uh, this is the San Diego show and everything's going great. She does her little delete me bit. She goes out in the crowd and bye, love you. Go watch me perform, whatever. Uh, I come back out after the show to find my wife in the crowd and my wife is on fucking Jupiter. I'm like, what the fuck is going on here? Oh, Hannah ate the entire chocolate bar.

• 7:48Speaker 02

  Uh oh.

• 7:50The Fat Electrician?

  Uh, okay. How much is an entire chocolate bar?

• 7:54Speaker 03

  She wasn't feeling it, by the way, you know.

• 7:56Speaker 02

  But it was just a chocolate bar.

• 7:57The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 7:59Speaker 02

  It's not doing anything.

• 8:00The Fat Electrician?

  You want to take a guess on how much, how much a chocolate bar was? She doesn't do any weed at all. Yes.

• 8:06Speaker 02

  Hundred milligrams?

• 8:07The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 8:08Speaker 04

  I was gonna say about a hundred.

• 8:08The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 8:09Speaker 03

  Out the gate.

• 8:10Speaker 02

  Thanks for playing, dude. If I do ten, I'm legless and I'm a big guy.

• 8:13The Fat Electrician?

  So, yeah.

• 8:15Speaker 03

  I was like, oh, God.

• 8:17Speaker 02

  Get out of here.

• 8:18The Fat Electrician?

  She was, she was paranoid. It was aggressive.

• 8:22Speaker 02

  It feels like you're dying for several hours. It's a horrible experience.

• 8:25The Fat Electrician?

  She was in a crowd with eleven hundred people that all knew who she was and they all wanted to come up and talk to her. She's fucking like.

• 8:33Speaker 03

  Dude, I walked up, I was like, you're good? I was like, you can go eat and lay down and she like.

• 8:39Speaker 02

  She just starts to sending it to heaven.

• 8:43Speaker 04

  She's like, I'm not buying your dinner.

• 8:45Speaker 02

  I have, I have questions. Does she normally do?

• 8:49The Fat Electrician?

  Nothing.

• 8:50Speaker 04

  Not a thing.

• 8:50Speaker 02

  So who convinced her to eat the chocolate bar?

• 8:53The Fat Electrician?

  Well.

• 8:53Speaker 02

  Was she like, oh, this'll take the edge off?

• 8:55The Fat Electrician?

  She wanted to have like a little tiny bit, like five milligrams.

• 8:59Speaker 02

  Sure.

• 9:00The Fat Electrician?

  And then.

• 9:00Speaker 02

  Like a little sliver of chocolate.

• 9:02The Fat Electrician?

  At some point, like it was broken into five milligram increments. Like it was like a Kit Kat. And like the only edible they could buy, apparently it was a hundred milligrams altogether. And they were gonna like, I don't know, save it, share it, whatever the fuck. And her brother, who does, you know, do edibles and stuff and he turned around and she was like, yeah, she just ate the whole thing because she said it wasn't working. And now it's definitely fucking working.

• 9:24Speaker 04

  That is the way, that is the roller coaster that people get on. It's like, ah man, it's been 10 minutes. I don't feel a thing.

• 9:30Speaker 02

  Geez, 20 minutes, this isn't working.

• 9:31The Fat Electrician?

  Christ Kylo Ren con.

• 9:33Speaker 02

  Yeah, the good news is that's a mistake you typically only make once.

• 9:36The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, I guarantee it.

• 9:37Speaker 04

  I've been to multiple of those houses.

• 9:39Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 9:40Speaker 04

  Multiple. And they're sitting, I've had one guy who was just sitting on the curb, just freaking out. I'm like, what's going on? He's like, I don't know, I just like, my heart's racing. And I'm like, what did, like, did you do something different today? He's like, I ate, I ate this edible. And I was like, there it is.

• 9:53Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 9:54Speaker 04

  There it is.

• 9:54Speaker 02

  How much did you eat?

• 9:55Speaker 04

  Like, I don't know.

• 9:56The Fat Electrician?

  Now they're strong.

• 9:57Speaker 04

  Plot twist, I ate the entire edible.

• 9:59Speaker 02

  They're strong, but they're also, so, you know, depending on where you buy them from, like they sell them 20 milligrams, 100 milligrams. You get the gummies, the chocolates, whatever food choice you want. But the beauty of it now, like it's, it's become so mainstream is you can really have a reasonable idea of how many milligrams you're having. So you can dose it correctly. I'm thinking back to like, when I was in high school, I just had my buddy Zach, who was like dealing cocaine at the time. And they're like, dude, I made a batch of brownies. I'm like, okay, how many do I have? He's like, I don't know, a couple.

• 10:27Speaker 04

  A couple brownies?

• 10:28Speaker 02

  Yeah. And literally, it's literally brownies. Like I don't even, he didn't even like make it into butter. It was just like nuggets of weed, just like in the brownies.

• 10:36Speaker 04

  He's not good at mixing either.

• 10:38Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 10:41Speaker 02

  I eat two. And like, of course, of course, same thing. This is like back when edibles weren't as mainstream. And I, it was probably one of my first experiences. I like smoked off and on through high school, blah, blah, blah. So I ate two brownies and same thing. I'm like, oh, this isn't working. I'm like drinking a fucking, I'm drinking like a Zima or something at the time. I don't even know. So I ate like two more brownies and then, you know, fast forward three hours and I'm literally like. Plastered on the tile kitchen floor like this, just like spinning for six hours.

• 11:06Speaker 04

  I'm in danger.

• 11:07Speaker 03

  Dude, it is. We had one of my buddies.

• 11:09Speaker 02

  And that summed up the time of my life, the best night I've ever had.

• 11:12Speaker 03

  There is, uh, my one buddy, he eats them and then he was like, oh, wants some. I was like, oh no, I'm good. I was like, what, what's that? What does that bottle say on the dosage? He's like, oh, they're 400 milligrams per cube. I was like, excuse me? Huh?

• 11:26Speaker 04

  Take care.

• 11:27Speaker 03

  Why? Why? He's like, well, there's 10,000 milligrams in this box. I'm like.

• 11:31Speaker 04

  Like a bouillon cube?

• 11:32Speaker 02

  You make a stew or something? Why the fuck would you 400 milligrams in a cube?

• 11:37Speaker 04

  Making it like a chicken noodle soup.

• 11:38Speaker 02

  You're supposed to drop those into a cauldron for a party, dude.

• 11:41Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 11:42Speaker 02

  Jesus Christ.

• 11:45Speaker 03

  You just eat these?

• 11:46Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 11:46Speaker 02

  He's just upper decked it.

• 11:50Speaker 02

  5,000 milligrams an hour right now, I'm fucking floating.

• 11:54Speaker 04

  I would die.

• 11:55The Fat Electrician?

  You gotta call it like, it's called the all spark.

• 11:59Speaker 02

  The all spark.

• 12:00Speaker 04

  Oh my god, dude. People are crashing on 5 milligrams. This guy's eating the tesseract.

• 12:04Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 12:09Speaker 03

  Like, oh man. It was a good time, though. It was a good time. Mr. Leon got to join us at the, um, Boston show.

• 12:15Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 12:16Speaker 04

  Yeah, Boston was amazing.

• 12:17Speaker 02

  Yeah, that was.

• 12:18Speaker 03

  Oh, yeah.

• 12:20Speaker 02

  I keep thinking Atlanta. We didn't know that either of us were there.

• 12:24Speaker 04

  I did not.

• 12:24Speaker 02

  Until we met here.

• 12:25Speaker 04

  It was wild.

• 12:26Speaker 02

  Down at the range day today. Um, but the Boston show was unreal.

• 12:30Speaker 04

  Unreal.

• 12:30Speaker 02

  I had a beautiful time. I, I didn't have anything to compare it to, obviously, versus other shows. But from my perspective, the crowd energy was good. I was, I was very happy as someone who takes pride in coming from New England, the Boston area. Obviously, they're big into sports and I was like, this is like a sports team vibes, dude. Your fans are ravenous.

• 12:46Speaker 04

  They were ridiculous.

• 12:48Speaker 02

  After everything, every joke, people, fucking USA chants, like the whole nine.

• 12:52Speaker 04

  They actually liked you guys.

• 12:53Speaker 03

  I got a video of 1,100 people yelling fuck communism and chanting USA.

• 12:58Speaker 02

  It was awesome.

• 12:59Speaker 04

  Henry Cavill.

• 12:59Speaker 03

  Henry Cavill?

• 13:02Speaker 02

  Yeah, the energy was palpable. It was a really good time and, uh...

• 13:06The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, you can't fake that. You know, you can't, you can't fake that. You either have that or you don't have that.

• 13:10Speaker 03

  It was wild because we've discussed it before, like getting everyone wanting to do them because that when the small shows it is like it is hard to be like, hey, we're doing a tour and no one wants to be on stage. We talk behind cameras, not behind a microphone. And then it is like, hey, we're, we have to put in work and we gotta make these seat cells and then we have to expand, but you have to start at the bottom. And you're just like, okay, we gotta sell out these. Okay. Now we're here. Now we gotta sell out these. Okay. Now.

• 13:41Speaker 04

  Big venues, bigger.

• 13:43Speaker 02

  Brick by brick, as they say, you know?

• 13:45Speaker 04

  This brick by brick.

• 13:46The Fat Electrician?

  I'd be really curious to hear like a comedian, like a, like a actual legit comedian's interpretation of like, oh, you guys have done five live shows and then sold out the Wilbur Theater. Dicks.

• 13:57Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 14:00Speaker 02

  You think it's like, it's just new media though. It's because you've like, think of how many hours and how much of the time you've spent grinding to build an audience through digital medium, which is the best. So you have now the luxury of selling out these awesome venues. Because of all the work you've done leading into that, like through what we're doing here at this table.

• 14:17Speaker 04

  People just see that tip of that iceberg, you know?

• 14:18Speaker 02

  Where it's like you, it's not like you're like, it's not like the podcast has been grinding at podcast open mics, you know what I mean?

• 14:25Speaker 02

  Going on the podcast version to kill Tony for 30 seconds at a time. All right, guys, we have 60 seconds. Say something funny.

• 14:33Speaker 02

  He's like, so guys, communism.

• 14:37Speaker 02

  Now they're selling out the Wilbur Theater in Boston.

• 14:42Speaker 02

  All I'm saying is thank God for the internet.

• 14:45Speaker 04

  Triple decker theaters are freaking amazing.

• 14:48The Fat Electrician?

  That's the other thing is people are always like, oh, are you nervous going out there? I was like, I was slightly nervous the first time, but like, yeah, we're not trying to, it's not like we're comedians. We have to go out there and win over the crowd. Like everybody already likes us.

• 14:59Speaker 03

  There you go.

• 15:00The Fat Electrician?

  It's like, and it's, I also, you can't bomb. Like if your joke falls flat, there's four other dudes to catch it and throw it back up and hit it. This is, it's.

• 15:07Speaker 03

  Or call them out.

• 15:08The Fat Electrician?

  Absurdly easy.

• 15:09Speaker 04

  And you guys have, you guys have that type of chemistry with each other where you can just play off each other so perfectly, you know?

• 15:14Speaker 02

  That's. And that, that was the interesting part to me as someone who's watched a lot of stand up is it's like, you guys, it's, it's like communal stand up, really. But you're sitting down. It's sit down. It's communal sit down. But it's the same idea. It's bits, it's jokes, it's.

• 15:28Speaker 03

  And yeah, and dude, what is wild is like the Boston show compared to the Buffalo's. Different set.

• 15:34Speaker 04

  Completely different.

• 15:35Speaker 03

  Completely, yeah, cuz we just like, uh, like, it just started going into a new direction and it was like, okay.

• 15:40The Fat Electrician?

  I choke slam Rich through a table.

• 15:42Speaker 04

  Yeah, literally. I'm sitting here, I'm like, I wonder what the Boston show is gonna be different like than the Buffalo show. And then I click on like the, uh, the story on Instagram. All of a sudden I just see up through a table. I was like, oh, okay. Yeah, that makes sense.

• 15:54The Fat Electrician?

  Left handed.

• 15:54Speaker 02

  That's like that. Left handed?

• 15:56The Fat Electrician?

  Left handed cuz we talked about it like four months prior and I completely forgot about it cuz like Bill's mafia. It's like a tradition. Yeah. So right pecs torn. I can't lift shit up.

• 16:06Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 16:07The Fat Electrician?

  And I was like, I like, he starts pulling out the chair tables. I was like, oh shit, we're still doing this. Cool. And I like turned to look back. Nobody has any clue what's going on. And I'm like, okay, it looks like I'm doing this.

• 16:20Speaker 04

  You know what you're doing. You know what you're doing.

• 16:21Speaker 02

  Here we go.

• 16:22The Fat Electrician?

  Fuck it.

• 16:22Speaker 04

  Left handed. Here we go.

• 16:23Speaker 02

  Something's happening.

• 16:24Speaker 03

  Rich's walks out, grabs the table, throws it on the chair. So, dude, I'm like, what the fuck is going on? And then it's like the entire slam.

• 16:32Speaker 04

  He's like going through the show notes. He's like, where is this?

• 16:34Speaker 03

  And then I like, I'm like, that's not scripted, by the way. I, none of us knew that was about to happen.

• 16:40The Fat Electrician?

  The funniest part is cuz I posted it and the amount of people in the comment section that were like, wow, dude in the American flag shirt did it dirty. He didn't even sell the move. Like people are mad that he's like making wrestling look fake cuz he popped right back up and he didn't sit there and act like his kidneys were in agony for 10 minutes.

• 16:58Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 16:59The Fat Electrician?

  People are legitimately upset about it. Like Rich proved that wrestling's fake all by himself.

• 17:04Speaker 02

  I love that. I have, I have to imagine that was Rich's idea, right? Cuz

• 17:08The Fat Electrician?

  Oh, yeah.

• 17:08Speaker 02

  Because so as a New England born and bred sports fan, like Buffalo's a big competitor to the Patriots.

• 17:14The Fat Electrician?

  They're crazy.

• 17:14Speaker 02

  And that's, they're known for their, their table slams, right? So like every football season.

• 17:19The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 17:19Speaker 02

  So I'm just, so everyone knows.

• 17:23Speaker 02

  Buffalo fans are psychotic. So like every football season, every weekend, there's clips on Twitter of people getting like life-changing injuries because they're tailgating and I'm talking like off of a roof through like a flaming table and they just like, half the time they miss the table and just laying it on the fucking ground and it's just a bunch of drunk retards everywhere.

• 17:41Speaker 04

  Happy Sunday.

• 17:42Speaker 02

  And that's literally what Buffalo sports is known for. It's like them just like trying to outdo each other with who can do the craziest table slam. And as a New England fan, I just love sitting back and watching people essentially like ruin their back for the rest of their lives over a fucking cheeky Twitter video.

• 17:57The Fat Electrician?

  I'm never gonna win a Super Bowl. I'd probably feel better about it if I was paralyzed.

• 18:03Speaker 02

  Now I have an excuse to watch every Buffalo game.

• 18:06Speaker 04

  The ER is just sitting there. It's like, huh, it's like three o'clock. Guys, get ready. You know it's coming sooner or later. Five ambulances roll up. Yep, there it is.

• 18:14Speaker 02

  Yeah, I was gonna say, if you were up in Buffalo, you'd be getting calls like that all the time.

• 18:17Speaker 04

  Absolutely. Twenty three year old male. From a twenty four year old male injury to the shoulder, back, neck. Happened up, up table.

• 18:23Speaker 03

  I will say it was the funniest thing, weirdest thing when it's like Buffalo, it's like racism. I will get Brian, I'm like, we need to leave.

• 18:33Speaker 03

  They're like chanting.

• 18:34Speaker 02

  I'm like, what?

• 18:35Speaker 04

  This is getting oddly strange.

• 18:37Speaker 03

  This show. And they're like, we were used to the stopping thing, like everyone cheers the stopping.

• 18:44The Fat Electrician?

  I'd never, I've, I've never seen that at a live show before until that.

• 18:49Speaker 03

  And it is the entire, like.

• 18:51Speaker 02

  Yeah, that's cool. So they just get going with both feet?

• 18:53Speaker 03

  Yeah, and it is rumble. It's like thunder and you're like, what the, like, how was that from the front, Dave? Like, when you hear that, it's like the place is gonna fall down.

• 19:01Speaker 05

  Yeah, it was literally like an earthquake.

• 19:04Speaker 02

  Start getting a little plaster coming out of the ceiling, like trickling down on the.

• 19:07The Fat Electrician?

  It was like an old church from like eighteen oh three. It was crazy. Yeah.

• 19:11Speaker 03

  Oh, yeah, it was like they had a boiler bounce.

• 19:15The Fat Electrician?

  Oh, the green room had the original boiler. With the chopped off gas lines. It was fucking nuts.

• 19:21Speaker 03

  But it was a, dude, W and me, like Ben are, uh, like, he's watched people, like some of the best sets and he's like, I have never seen an audience react like this. Yeah, he's like, oh.

• 19:34Speaker 04

  Oh, you were one where Hunter's tribe broke together.

• 19:37The Fat Electrician?

  Come and a thousand people cheering like that.

• 19:40Speaker 03

  Everyone's getting shit wrecked beyond belief.

• 19:44The Fat Electrician?

  We sold out all the alcohol at every venue we went to.

• 19:47Speaker 03

  I believe that.

• 19:48Speaker 02

  So that's the best part because that's where they make most of their money. So they're gonna be begging you to come back. Like if you're doing like a violin recital and it's like three people are drinking like Chardonnay and the whole crowd, they're like, fuck this dude, this sucks. Like sure, ticket sales are cool. If you can like, the bar, yeah, yeah, you can come anytime you want.

• 20:06Speaker 03

  They seen us on tour and they're like, hey, you're not coming here. We, whatever you need.

• 20:13Speaker 02

  We double stocked all of it.

• 20:14Speaker 03

  When you got on the long time.

• 20:16Speaker 02

  And unlike some venues, Boston wasn't afraid of the audience.

• 20:20Speaker 04

  It's also true.

• 20:21Speaker 03

  Yeah, the Boston, all those shows, just like, I'm super, super happy we recorded.

• 20:28Speaker 04

  The Boston.

• 20:28Speaker 03

  The Boston show.

• 20:29Speaker 02

  I can't wait to see that.

• 20:30Speaker 04

  Yeah, I'm stoked to see that.

• 20:31Speaker 03

  We had so like four cinema cameras.

• 20:34Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 20:34Speaker 03

  Five cinema cameras plus backup roamers.

• 20:37Speaker 02

  Do you have an ETA on when that's gonna come out?

• 20:39Speaker 03

  I think two weeks.

• 20:39Speaker 02

  Nice. On Pepperbox?

• 20:41Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 20:41Speaker 02

  Hell, yeah.

• 20:41Speaker 04

  I didn't even know that it was getting recorded. I was, I was in line for the meet and greet. And I'm just kind of leaning there. I just, now that I'm picturing what it looked like, like, I felt like it was one of those, like, leaning against the high school building with your foot up type of moment. And I'm just, I'm leaning up against the railing. I'm just kind of looking off in the distance. Just kind of taking in the environment. And I was like, kind of snapped myself back out. I looked forward and there's just a camera panning across me. It's like, well, that's great.

• 21:02Speaker 02

  Caught me in my own fucking freaking.

• 21:06Speaker 03

  You were getting recognized a bunch while you were there?

• 21:08Speaker 04

  I was getting recognized a bunch. That was a.

• 21:09Speaker 03

  So you had a bunch of pictures.

• 21:10Speaker 04

  That was a heck of a, a heck of a time. I was, it's, it's not my own element. You know, I've got recognized at hospitals or EMT events and stuff like that, but. Walking in there and like, as soon as I walked in the building, there was just a, well, you know, circle of, circle of folks that were there for the meet and greet. And I just walked in, they're like.

• 21:24Speaker 04

  Do I know you? I'm like, uh, I don't, I don't, are you, are you a paramedic? I'm like, oh, I'm an EMT. He's like.

• 21:31Speaker 04

  Are you on TikTok? I'm like, I, I am on TikTok. And it just, it just started from there. And that, it didn't end until we left the bar across the street.

• 21:38Speaker 03

  I'm glad our audience needs to be told not to shove stuff up their ass.

• 21:42Speaker 02

  That man's not putting things in your nose?

• 21:44Speaker 03

  He may slap you.

• 21:45Speaker 02

  I don't like that advice. Yeah. They're like, how dare you? Trying to dictate what goes in my ass.

• 21:49Speaker 04

  How dare you?

• 21:50Speaker 03

  I mean, we got to ask, what's the weirdest thing you've had to pull out of somebody's ass?

• 21:53Speaker 04

  So I've only, I've only, well, I've never, I didn't pull it out. As an EMT, I try really hard not to put anything or take anything out.

• 21:58Speaker 03

  Don't sneeze, you'll break the light bulb.

• 22:00Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 22:00Speaker 03

  Yeah, what happened?

• 22:02Speaker 04

  So, I mean, the story that, that ended up happening was when I was on a pay department. So I end up going on a call. It's. When I do these rants, when I do these rants, it's always like.

• 22:10Speaker 02

  Side closer, side closer.

• 22:12Speaker 03

  Get that dick in there.

• 22:14Speaker 04

  When I do these rants, they're, they're, they're serious about how it happened. So like, it's always like some stupid three o'clock in the morning, just junk that happens. And when that happened, it was a three o'clock in the morning call. And, uh, we get dispatched for a nineteen year old male who, uh, has an injury to the, or an impaled object injury to the abdomen. So I'm like, oh, this is great. This guy fell on a pair of scissors, fell on a knife cooking down. I'm like, what? This could be anything. We get over there and he's just sitting there on his, on his couch, kinda, pardon the pun, but cock to one side. And, uh, he's just looking at me with these doe eyes. I'm like, hey buddy, you know, my name's Anthony. What's, what's going on?

• 22:54Speaker 04

  And I'm like, you're not bleeding? What's going on? He just hands me a suave bottle, a suave shampoo bottle. And I'm just like, why doesn't it have a lid on it? Why doesn't it have a lid on it? And he's just looking at me like, understood. Okay. Okay. We're gonna get, we're gonna get through this. Alright. Yeah. So I, I asked him how it happened. And he's like, I was in the shower.

• 23:16Speaker 04

  He's like, I, I sat down on it and I was trying to have some fun and thing came off and now it's, you know, sealed like the time lock at the bank. It is not coming out. So I was like, well, we're in this now.

• 23:26Speaker 02

  Now, was this like one of the, like the pump top lotion?

• 23:32Speaker 04

  Straight up screw top, suave bottle. Yeah. So, uh, you know.

• 23:35Speaker 03

  When this top just went.

• 23:36Speaker 04

  Yeah. Top just unscrewed and just, and that was it. That was, so we ended up transporting him and with, with the burden of knowledge of how that's coming out. It's, it's not a fun, it's not a fun image. It's exactly like just what you think it is. They're gonna spread it and they're gonna go in there and they're gonna get it. So.

• 23:51Speaker 02

  Get the forceps out.

• 23:52Speaker 04

  Exactly right. You may as well just get like, uh, the jaws of life.

• 23:55Speaker 02

  I feel like there's a, there's a basic, like a real basic level IQ test. It's like, if you're gonna drill something into your ass. Absolutely prerequisite is to make sure there's no detachable parts.

• 24:06Speaker 04

  One would think.

• 24:07Speaker 02

  Like, so that's like, kinda like, are you below or above a hundred IQ? It's like below suave bottle, cap comes off. And I call in, alright, now.

• 24:14Speaker 04

  It's a bad day. It's a bad day had by all.

• 24:16Speaker 02

  It's like. You know, like twenty minutes before that, he's like, he's like, he sees a BuzzFeed article, like a BuzzFeed article about prostate massage and he's like. This could be something.

• 24:27Speaker 04

  I fell on it, yeah.

• 24:28Speaker 02

  I have a dildo, I can make one out of legos.

• 24:32Speaker 02

  Maybe the shampoo bottle with a very easily removable cap will work.

• 24:35Speaker 04

  Exactly. I fell on it. Yeah, everybody falls on a three foot statue of Barbra Streisand in their bathroom. That's just how it works.

• 24:40Speaker 02

  Next thing you know, you sneeze and Anthony's standing over you like this.

• 24:44The Fat Electrician?

  How many, like, how many times have you heard when in that situation with like, I fell?

• 24:49Speaker 04

  Yeah, that's, that's the answer.

• 24:50The Fat Electrician?

  It's not usually that. I, I fell and the shampoo bottle untwisted itself and wound up in my ass.

• 24:58Speaker 04

  The big answer you'll get is, I, I didn't expect that to happen. I just want to sit there and you know, it's one of those things like the new thing on the internet is no, we listen, we don't judge, right? But my answer to them is just always, what did you think was gonna happen? Like, I just want to know, what, how did you think this was gonna go?

• 25:10Speaker 02

  Oh, I judge.

• 25:13The Fat Electrician?

  Looking at him with those big doe eyes like, oh no, he's gonna talk about me on TikTok.

• 25:17Speaker 06

• 25:48Speaker 02

  Yeah, you're probably at that point now, you can't comment there.

• 25:50The Fat Electrician?

  Can I get a selfie?

• 25:54Speaker 04

  I'm a huge fan.

• 25:57The Fat Electrician?

  This is so sorry.

• 25:58Speaker 02

  Did you do this because you know I'd show up?

• 26:00Speaker 04

  This is why I say don't meet me like this. I literally do not want to meet you like this.

• 26:06The Fat Electrician?

  Yikes dude. How long you been doing TikTok?

• 26:08Speaker 04

  TikTok, I think I started in like 2021. And I was just, yeah, and I was just making like, you know, it's just like everybody else starts out, just making goofy stuff to pass the time, have a good time and just put stuff out there that made me laugh. If it didn't make somebody else laugh, it made me laugh and that was something. And then, uh, one day I made a video and it was just this weird like, um, I guess the best way to describe it's like this serpentine looking kinetic thing that was going like this. And I was like, that is phallic. I'm just like, I don't know. So it just, the whole video was just this serpentine thing going. And, uh, I just cut right to me just real fast and it was like a hard zoom and I was just like. No, no. And that just detonated. One of my friends sent me a message and they were like, "You need to go on your TikTok right now because that is exploding."

• 26:50Speaker 04

  And I'm sitting there like, "Okay, well, my previous video hit like 16 people." So I guess the new one's probably gonna hit like 100 people. It's exploding. So I looked at it and it was like 300,000 after like three hours.

• 27:01Speaker 02

  What was the phallic thing? What are we talking about?

• 27:03Speaker 04

  It was like this weird, like, gold-colored kinetic spiraled sculpture that was just doing this.

• 27:09Speaker 02

  That was in someone's ass?

• 27:10Speaker 04

  No, no, no. It was just sitting on a table.

• 27:12Speaker 02

  Okay, I see what you're saying. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 27:15Speaker 04

  I mean, listen, I haven't seen that thing in a long time, so who knows where it ended up?

• 27:20Speaker 02

  In great places.

• 27:21Speaker 04

  You know, like, after you tell somebody no so many times, it's like, "But my body's telling me, yeah."

• 27:26Speaker 02

  So how, how long have you been in EMT?

• 27:29Speaker 04

  So I've officially been in EMT for just a little over four years. Okay. I've been, I'm relatively newer EMT.

• 27:34Speaker 02

  What did you do before that?

• 27:36Speaker 04

  I have done everything under the surface. I was a range safety officer at a firearms range. I was, I was in the restaurant business for 10, 11 years. I was a food manager for, for the Job Corps program. If anybody's familiar with the Job Corps program, which is a really cool program the government does for underprivileged or second or third chance individuals. It's a really good program. And I ended up being the food manager over there. Just everything under the sun. I installed pools, just everything. And then finally, I, I got out of the restaurant business, got out of the Job Corps business, and decided, like, I needed to, I needed to do something a little bit more of value, at least in my own mind, something a little more of value. And my mom, my mom always had this sign that was above our couch.

• 28:17Speaker 04

  And not that my mom's a huge Muhammad Ali fan, so I have no idea why this was even there, but I guess it's something that she believed in. It just said, "Service to others is the rent that we pay for a room here on earth." And it's something that just always stuck with me. It's something that I put on whenever anybody would ask me for what my, my favorite quote is, it was always that. So when I finally settled in on what I thought I wanted to do, I messaged one of my friends. I'm like, "Hey, how, how do I get involved in EMS? Like, it's something I really think I want to do, but it seems like such a difficult thing to get involved in." And he's like, "Uh, go down to the department and say hi and..." I'm like, oh, well, well, you run a hard bargain there, but I think you can do that.

• 28:53The Fat Electrician?

  Please God, we need warm bodies.

• 28:57Speaker 04

  Like, and that was pretty much it. I went, I went down there and I, I probied for, for about six or seven months. And they're like, do you want to go to EMT school? Do you feel comfortable? Do you feel confident? I'm like, I feel good. You know, my trainers were amazing. And I went to EMT school and then as soon as EMT school started, people started getting coffee sneezies. And two weeks later, COVID hit. So I was, I was, I became an EMT right in the heart of COVID. They shut, they shut school down. It became remote. It took me twice as long just to get through school because I couldn't do practicals. We couldn't meet in person to do hands-on stuff. So I finished EMT school book wise and test wise, but then I had to go back and do all the hands-on physical stuff and pass that, which went well.

• 29:40Speaker 04

  And then you still have to take the national in New Jersey. We take a, a national test in order to get your New Jersey EMT certification. So went ahead and I had to set that. That was two weeks later. So I finally passed that. And after that I was done. And yeah, then that's when the crazy stuff started happening. I was still working at the, the gun range and in my first week of, of being an EMT, somebody decided that they needed to take a 357 Magnum and take it to this underneath their chin. And we, he survived that. We were able to get him. Yeah, I was.

• 30:13Speaker 03

  First calls?

• 30:14Speaker 04

  It was, I wasn't even, it wasn't even in my town. I happened to be on the, um, the retail desk. And the way the place looks, you have the retail desk. There's an area where people come in and pay for their, um, their membership or their range time and all that stuff. And just on the opposite side, there's a, you, you got the glass wall and there's what was the 25 yard range, the main range.

• 30:33Speaker 03

  He showed up to the range and did it?

• 30:35Speaker 04

  Exactly right. He did.

• 30:36The Fat Electrician?

  He, um. So is this like a range owned gun?

• 30:39Speaker 04

  This was a range owned gun. Yeah. And we have, we have special rules. We had special rules. Like if you were, you're not allowed to go in there and rent a firearm by yourself. That's, that was a main rule and he wasn't by himself. He was with his girlfriend. And he was basically, yeah, he was, it was insane. So I was in the retail.

• 30:55Speaker 03

  Babe, do I have the date for you?

• 30:57Speaker 04

  We have, we have new pieces in, so we can communicate. Everybody and um all you see is we have there's protocol case something bad happens right so you see these I just see the range starting to clear out the privacy curtains just get cut down I'm just like and there was there was a guy next to me who wasn't was already in EMT for a little while just so happened and he just started he had just started at the range I've been at the range for about a year at that point

• 31:19The Fat Electrician?

  when you say EMT like EMTB M or paramedic

• 31:23Speaker 04

  EMTB we're both both EMTBs

• 31:25Speaker 03

  What is B and

• 31:26The Fat Electrician?

  B is basic intermediate and paramedic is the top level

• 31:30Speaker 03

  Oh gotcha so it's like hey their level of trauma you get drawn to it

• 31:33Speaker 04

  Yeah the level of like your your depth of protocol and different things that you can do so I looked and I see the curtains cutting and he has no idea what's going on because he's literally brand new and I just tapped him I'm like we gotta go we gotta go you gotta go we jumped the counter which is glass so it's probably not the smartest thing and we run into the range while everybody's running out and I look down and one of the main owners of the of the building at that time was holding this guy and he basically we when we watched the video back he was he was doing what was called fly fishing so he was taking the gun and go sorry about that he would take the gun and go boom boom type of stuff like that and finally you just see him look and just boom

• 32:09The Fat Electrician?

  It was an accident?

• 32:10Speaker 04

  Oh it was not an accident absolutely

• 32:11The Fat Electrician?

  Oh okay

• 32:12Speaker 03

  He was trying to like oh I'm gonna trick it and tell this is what I'm doing so when I go like this

• 32:17Speaker 04

  Exactly

• 32:18Speaker 03

  No one can catch on

• 32:19Speaker 04

  And what he did was he raised he raised his head like this when he did it so instead of it going like this it went out like this and just took out like the side of it was it was a bad scene it was really bad

• 32:27Speaker 03

  Oh yeah

• 32:27Speaker 04

  And um I'm like I said I'm a week into this I this is like the level of trauma that I had seen before that was like little Johnny with the skinned knee you know

• 32:34The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah yeah

• 32:35Speaker 04

  And uh we we basically just we gathered him up we we did the best that we could to stop the bleed and uh just did everything that we were supposed to do um the town EMS showed up dumped him on the stretcher making cooked it and booked it um the other guy and myself we took the ride and we went over to one of the two the two really good level one trauma centers in in Jersey and we got him there I actually I was actually able to get almost conversation out of him I asked him if he had allergies he's like but uh but we got we got stuff out of him and then the uh

• 33:05The Fat Electrician?

  Had allergies?

• 33:06Speaker 04

  Lad

• 33:08Speaker 04

  The guy, and then the medics were just like.

• 33:10Speaker 02

  My eyes sting a little bit.

• 33:12Speaker 04

  And you just see the medic, you know, pushed a little plunger and that was it. The K took, took hold and that was it. Knocked them out and then we got to, uh, got to the center. Now they're putting to, uh, to paint a picture for you. I'm wearing a, a red RSO shirt and khaki pants. By the time I left, I was wearing a red khaki shirt, a red shirt and red pants. So we get back in there. Now everybody's back at the range and, you know, their, the range is obviously shut down. The mayor's there. It's freaking nuts. And we walk back in, you know, that slow mo vision of like the astronauts walking down like the gangway to go to, that's what it felt like.

• 33:47Speaker 02

  Like the hero shot?

• 33:47Speaker 04

  Yeah, exactly. We walk in and just eyes just, just panic. I'm like, okay, you don't have to look at me like this. That's cool. And we go into the, um, I guess it's sort of like a classroom where all the employees were gathered and, uh, it turns out that one of the guys who works there, his girlfriend is a crisis counselor. So we walk in now, everybody had already been in there. We're sitting there, we walk in, we get in the back and, uh, she goes, hey, hey, you, you guys are the ones that, that went to the hospital, right? I'm like, yeah, yeah. And they're like, uh, she's like, are you okay? Do you need anything? Yeah, no, we're good, man. That was, that was wild. We're just like, it's, we can handle that. It's fine. If I can handle, if you can handle that, you can handle anything.

• 34:25Speaker 02

  Jumping into the new profession head first.

• 34:27Speaker 04

  That's it, man. There, there was no, there was no leeway. You're just, it was just.

• 34:32Speaker 03

  My COVID is crazy.

• 34:33Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's like, you would like, maybe like a broken arm.

• 34:36Speaker 04

  Man, that would have been stellar.

• 34:37Speaker 02

  Not like a failed suey attempt.

• 34:39The Fat Electrician?

  All I can think is like, you're so lucky it was EMTBs there. Cause if it was a bunch of fresh army medics, they would have cut your throat up and tried to shove a bic pen down it. Just let you breathe. Totally unjustified, but they would have done it.

• 34:52Speaker 04

  I mean, I didn't have a pen. The problem was I didn't have a pen.

• 34:55Speaker 03

  Nasal pharyngeal down the hole.

• 34:57The Fat Electrician?

  Well, the thing is like, med, army medics don't do trakes. Army medics do, do crakes.

• 35:02Speaker 04

  They do crakes.

• 35:02The Fat Electrician?

  So, yeah. A crake sever, severage your vocal cords if they have to do it.

• 35:08Speaker 02

  Just to get oxygen in there, assuming.

• 35:09The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah. So like, if you like, if you like, get your face blown up and you can't breathe through your mouth, like a normal hospital does a trach.

• 35:15Speaker 02

  Right.

• 35:15The Fat Electrician?

  Which goes through, well, no, there's. Different like soft spots in your neck. There's a higher one where you can do a trach. But your epiglottis is in the way. So it's a lot harder to hit. So the army is like, just go through the lower one. That's a crick. It'll sever their vocal cords, but we'll fix them later.

• 35:32Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 35:32The Fat Electrician?

  Fuck it. Just get air in them now.

• 35:35Speaker 04

  Look at you knowing stuff nerd.

• 35:38Speaker 03

  Nasal pharyngials were, you've had one, I'm assuming.

• 35:41The Fat Electrician?

  Oh, yeah, you have.

• 35:41Speaker 04

  I've done it myself.

• 35:43The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 35:43Speaker 03

  I had like a big, dude, yeah, and it was an army one and it was like at two thousand. It was two thousand seven when I got that. Cause they were like, hey, if you do this, you can go on leave earlier from Iraq. I was like a hundred percent. Do this shit. Yeah, a hundred percent. And then it was just like, they're like, okay, loop.

• 36:02Speaker 04

  Did I loop it?

• 36:03The Fat Electrician?

  Oh, what? He's going to my nose?

• 36:05Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 36:08The Fat Electrician?

  I was ready to do so much more.

• 36:19Speaker 03

  It leaks out.

• 36:22Speaker 04

  I'm gonna piss so fast. He's like, do you have another one?

• 36:26The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 36:26Speaker 04

  Can you just skip the loop for me? I'll be fine. Yeah.

• 36:28Speaker 07

  They hung that over your head like the, all right, who wants to volunteer to get faced by a rubber tube?

• 36:34Speaker 03

  Yep. Oh, and I got a standing up. It was like no leg down like a climb filter. It was like, God, come here. And you fucking slammed it down. I was like, oh, this sucks dick.

• 36:47Speaker 07

  People don't want to stay in the army. See your family until I fuck you with.

• 36:52Speaker 03

  It is not a good feeling. It is.

• 36:53Speaker 04

  And mine was the one that I did myself was tiny. Like there's, they get.

• 36:57Speaker 03

  I had a giant one, like nothing but pressure. Yeah. It feels like something is ripping your entire sinus cavity all the way down.

• 37:05Speaker 04

  It's this big, you know?

• 37:08Speaker 03

  Fucking.

• 37:09Speaker 04

  Yeah, like you're supposed to be able to measure it and it was like, no.

• 37:11The Fat Electrician?

  Your aid bag is supposed to have lube in it for that. But like they always tell you.

• 37:16Speaker 03

  What's the army said? Army, go.

• 37:17The Fat Electrician?

  If you don't have lube, use whatever you got.

• 37:23The Fat Electrician?

  One dude in a drill with an actual person though, forgot to restock his aid bag, just.

• 37:30Speaker 04

  Yep.

• 37:30The Fat Electrician?

  And shoves it in their nose before they can do anything. That person is so fucking gross.

• 37:37Speaker 03

  There's literally so many people I watch. You're like.

• 37:39Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 37:44Speaker 04

  Just use my own spit.

• 37:46Speaker 03

  Sorry, maybe he would walk around during training exercises. He's like, he needs one. And I was just like, if I was like, I was like, this motherfucker.

• 37:53Speaker 04

  Did you eat tacos for lunch?

• 37:55Speaker 03

  Please do. Okay, it's good. And then he's just calling people that are dead. It's like, he's hurt. He needs one. He needs one. And then the medics are just like giving nasal pharyngeal down. And we're doing like,

• 38:06The Fat Electrician?

  the, the army big ones.

• 38:07Speaker 04

  Pinky size.

• 38:08Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 38:09Speaker 04

  Size fits none.

• 38:10Speaker 03

  Do it with an N C D.

• 38:14Speaker 04

  Nature's lube.

• 38:15The Fat Electrician?

  Dude, watching those guys. Medic, medic school was so fun. We used to, we used to play horse with IVs.

• 38:21Speaker 04

  Let's go.

• 38:22The Fat Electrician?

  We were doing his feet. All right. Now do it in the vein in their forehead. All kinds of stupid shit.

• 38:28Speaker 04

  I remember the first time I saw somebody have to do an E J line. I'm just like, oh, God. Okay.

• 38:32The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 38:32Speaker 04

  All right. This is gonna be messy.

• 38:34Speaker 03

  I gave one to, um, uh, God, what is his? Oh, my God. Why am I not remembering, uh, Leroy Jenkins? And I know it sounds like.

• 38:43Speaker 04

  Actually, Leroy.

• 38:44Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 38:44Speaker 04

  The war, war crap.

• 38:47Speaker 03

  Not, he has the exact same name. Yeah, same name randomly. But he's like, oh, you're good. We've been drinking. He's like, just give me one here. This is.

• 38:54Speaker 04

  Just give me one.

• 38:56Speaker 03

  What? He's like, no, you're fine. You're fine. Here, here, here. Walk it in, walk it in. I'm like.

• 39:04Speaker 03

  I gave him one.

• 39:06Speaker 03

  Terrifying your buddies.

• 39:07Speaker 04

  Unenough. I still have his blood in my living.

• 39:09Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 39:11Speaker 04

  That was like, for practice? What was the?

• 39:13Speaker 03

  Yeah, Leroy's crazy.

• 39:15The Fat Electrician?

  We're hungover. It's fine.

• 39:17Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 39:17The Fat Electrician?

  Bonus IVs.

• 39:19Speaker 03

  It's, it's.

• 39:20Speaker 04

  It's practical hours.

• 39:21Speaker 03

  People being people. Do you like TikTok, I G route? Are you getting into YouTube next?

• 39:26Speaker 04

  So, yeah, right now, I mean, YouTube is basically just take this content, put it on YouTube. Uh, but yeah, we're going to be going into an expanded format and, you know, trying to, trying to test the waters and see how well we do over on, uh, on long form YouTube content. Been talking to the guys about it.

• 39:40The Fat Electrician?

  So are you, are you still in E M T B?

• 39:43Speaker 04

  I am, yeah.

• 39:43The Fat Electrician?

  Okay. Are you gonna work towards paramedic? Are you gonna let us talk you out of it to just be a YouTuber full time? We, we got Ethan to quit his job after like nineteen years or however long you've been doing it.

• 39:54Speaker 07

  I'm still trying to quit. They just.

• 39:56The Fat Electrician?

  It's okay. I, I saw, I literally went. And I saw his heart get corrupted. It was beautiful.

• 40:03Speaker 04

  You just felt it, just you just felt it.

• 40:05The Fat Electrician?

  It was funny because I got tagged in his YouTube video where he's like, I made a decision and he talks about how he's gonna try to get out of the army now. And every, all the comment section was like, fat electrician won.

• 40:18Speaker 02

  Wow, he really rolled over.

• 40:20Speaker 04

  Out my arm.

• 40:21The Fat Electrician?

  It was, let me tell you, it was a really, really hard job. I'm very proud of myself. A normal man absolutely could not convince somebody that being a YouTuber, gets to do whatever the fuck he wants 24/7 is way better job than the army.

• 40:36Speaker 04

  It was a Herculean effort, really.

• 40:38Speaker 07

  I just don't want to be old anymore. Like, I'm so tired of standing in a people box at 5:00 in the morning, making sure other grown men dress the same as me. Okay? Fuck.

• 40:49Speaker 03

  Gets way harder when you're YouTube successful too.

• 40:53The Fat Electrician?

  That's my favorite. It's like, I don't have to be here, but I do.

• 40:59Speaker 03

  Yeah. You have to be the most rough time in the military.

• 41:06The Fat Electrician?

  He hits me up and he's like, dude, I'm trying to buy a house and they don't, they don't like that I make money on the internet. And I was like, yeah, that's like the one downside to this job. Trying to, trying to explain to the bank, you're not a drug dealer.

• 41:18Speaker 04

  So this, uh, this 60 grand, where did you say it came from? Listen, listen, Mike, you're not gonna believe this, but.

• 41:24Speaker 02

  But just look at my analytics.

• 41:28Speaker 04

  If I look right here, Google says I'm wealthy.

• 41:32The Fat Electrician?

  Have I ever told you the story of how I got my house, like the loan for my house? I could not get a fucking loan to get a, to get a house. See, you go to the bank and you're like, here's like my banking and my W to like all my shit. And they're like, you don't have a W too. I was like, well, no, I, I work for myself or whatever. And they're like, but here's like all my bank records. Here's my income. Like I, I can, I can afford this house. Like it's not, it's not a problem. They're like, well, you don't have a W too. We really don't like that. I was like, I mean, cool, but like, I can, you know, I have, I have enough for a down payment. Like I can definitely pay, like I have a wife and kids. I'm not gonna fucking put myself in a situation where we're gonna be homeless. Like this is, it's fine. And they're like, Nope. So I went to every bank in town, finally found one, but they were like, super weirded out about it.

• 42:15The Fat Electrician?

  The original loan officer was like, cool, completely understand. Very simple. Like you make a video, ads play, you get paid for it, you sell some t-shirts. Makes sense, right? Not super complicated. And then they're like, we have to take you to this loan committee, which is like, I don't know, elder dinosaurs that are like in charge of all the money on the planet, apparently.

• 42:38Speaker 02

  Sky skyscraper somewhere.

• 42:39The Fat Electrician?

  It's just like a board of Nancy Pelosi's that, you know, aren't cheating the stock market.

• 42:45The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah. So I had to like, go, go before them, if you will, is two men and a woman. And they're like, you know, we'll explain it. And I was like, I make videos, people watch videos, ads play during videos, I get paid for ads, I also sell t-shirts. Fucking pretty straightforward. And the two dudes were like, cool, I get it. That's fine. It's literally the same business model as TV. Wonderful. The woman was just not having it. She was, I don't understand. I was like, okay, I'll say it slower. I fuck, I guess I, it's literally, it's TV. You know how commercials play? That's how TV networks make money. And she's like, right, no, I get it, but like,

• 43:27The Fat Electrician?

  what does your wife do? And like, that's become my new pet peeve of the past two years. Cause he did a, I get asked it a lot. Like whenever you're like, oh, what do you do? It's like, I make videos on the internet and they're like,

• 43:36Speaker 02

  Who's making money in the family?

• 43:38The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah. It's like, oh, cool.

• 43:39Speaker 02

  Sure you do, buddy.

• 43:40The Fat Electrician?

  You sit at home all day eating Cheetos in your underwear, playing video games while your wife, the surgeon, makes all the money.

• 43:45Speaker 02

  Screaming.

• 43:47Speaker 04

  Do do that.

• 43:48The Fat Electrician?

  So at this point, it's like already become a pet peeve of mine. And I've developed the perfect answer. And it just came out without thinking of it. So she's like, so what does your wife do? And I go, me?

• 44:00Speaker 03

  Two dudes lost their shit. Anyway, I got the house. It was good.

• 44:06Speaker 02

  Needless to say, loan secured.

• 44:09Speaker 03

  My wife loves that joke.

• 44:11Speaker 04

  Loan secured is not invited back.

• 44:13Speaker 02

  It's not funny, don't laugh. Yeah, that's gonna be some like post 2008 housing bubble regulations they made, right? Cause if it was 2007, you can walk in and be like, yeah, I've been unemployed for six years. I'm thirty five thousand dollars a debt. They're like, here's a million bucks.

• 44:28Speaker 03

  But I got an idea for business.

• 44:29Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. You sound like a good candidate for a really expensive loan you might be able to pay back.

• 44:35The Fat Electrician?

  What's the, what's the house hunting meme? Like that house hunting show where it's like, oh, I, I work part time as a substitute teacher and he collects butterflies. Our budget's 2.7 million dollars for our dream home.

• 44:47Speaker 03

  With the home TV, it's that TV, home TV.

• 44:53The Fat Electrician?

  How do these people?

• 44:54Speaker 04

  It's like, where did you, where do you come from?

• 44:56The Fat Electrician?

  Speaking of jokes, my wife's, my wife loves. I text her. I was like, hey, I'm sorry. I told the joke about you getting high at the live show. She responds and I quote, oh God, did you make me sound like a total loser? Like how I can't handle drinking a margarita?

• 45:15Speaker 02

  Literally was the segue into the segment.

• 45:17Speaker 03

  How did you know that?

• 45:19Speaker 04

  We can edit that out, right?

• 45:21Speaker 03

  Babe, we know each other.

• 45:22Speaker 02

  Almost like you're married, yeah.

• 45:26Speaker 04

  I would never, I would never do that, editor.

• 45:28Speaker 02

  Edit. So here's a story. My wife's a ripping lightweight dude.

• 45:36Speaker 04

  She once opened a bottle of Tito's and I had to carry her out of the building.

• 45:42Speaker 03

  Dude, how, your big journey into YouTube, what do you think? Dude, for anyone that doesn't know it, short form to long form is a beast to conquer. It is, oh, like, and short form, it completely different pay structure where you're like, when you see long form, you're like, I need to.

• 45:58Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 45:59Speaker 03

  Hop into there.

• 46:00Speaker 04

  It's a transition worth making.

• 46:02Speaker 03

  Yeah, but it's just extremely difficult to do. Nick, of course, did it within like six months.

• 46:08Speaker 03

  Yeah, Nick's like, we're like, do long form.

• 46:12Speaker 02

  Nick's a bit of an anomaly.

• 46:14Speaker 03

  Not a good reference of anything to do.

• 46:16Speaker 02

  No, judge yourself on this scale, actually.

• 46:21Speaker 04

  Where do you rank on the Nick social media?

• 46:26Speaker 02

  Oh, do long form? Sure. Now I'm creating millions of views a month in four weeks. Okay, cool.

• 46:30Speaker 04

  With zero to Nick.

• 46:31Speaker 03

  Hey, look, I started a secondary channel, also millions of views.

• 46:36Speaker 04

  I didn't even want, I didn't even want the views.

• 46:38Speaker 02

  I didn't even want them. I had forgotten that you, you started doing, you started as like short form Instagram guy?

• 46:44The Fat Electrician?

  TikTok. Do you want to hate me?

• 46:48Speaker 02

  No.

• 46:49The Fat Electrician?

  I can make you hate me.

• 46:51Speaker 02

  No, I already do. And I, you're gonna make it worse.

• 46:54The Fat Electrician?

  Um, so I, I like, I got hurt and was, my wife kept sending me links for TikToks. You have to like open it to the internet browser. And so I was like, fuck it. I'm gonna make TikTok sitting at home, high on Percocet after surgery and just like swiping all day. Eventually like got off Percocet. I, I'll be honest, I think I could be funnier than most of these people. I made one video. 12.6 million views.

• 47:18Speaker 02

  First video you ever.

• 47:19The Fat Electrician?

  Ever, that I've ever made.

• 47:20Speaker 04

  My first video was 12.6 views.

• 47:23Speaker 02

  Typical online experience for anyone looking to get into space. That's usually all it takes is one TikTok and then.

• 47:28Speaker 04

  Trapped in the.

• 47:29Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah.

• 47:31Speaker 03

  So I've heard the story time and time again.

• 47:33Speaker 02

  Next thing I do, next thing you know, you're telling the female bankers to go fuck themselves. Get me a loan for my house. Well, what do you do exactly? Well, I made one TikTok video one time and now I want to buy a one million dollar house.

• 47:45Speaker 04

  I figured the easiest way for me to get a long form content is just to hijack Nick's channel.

• 47:51The Fat Electrician?

  I'm the asshole that like walks in next to the person that's been gambling eight hours a day for 20 years. Just one pull.

• 47:58Speaker 02

  Jackpot.

• 48:02Speaker 02

  Then you take it and you put it down on the roulette table and 10x it and then you leave. Yeah.

• 48:07Speaker 04

  The long form.

• 48:09Speaker 02

  Exactly. Yeah.

• 48:11Speaker 04

  This gambling thing is.

• 48:13The Fat Electrician?

  I got real fucking lucky.

• 48:15Speaker 03

  It was that and then.

• 48:17The Fat Electrician?

  Well, I don't know. You were like, I don't know if I could do it that long. And then now he's doing an hour long video.

• 48:22Speaker 04

  Yeah, those videos have gotten a bit extensive.

• 48:24The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, they're they're aggressive.

• 48:26Speaker 04

  They're a great watch. They're a great watch. But like, I just remember, you know, I remember the the minute and a half long videos and I remember the the 10 minute videos and I remember the 40 minute videos.

• 48:35The Fat Electrician?

  It's crazy how that happens. The longer you're like, okay.

• 48:38Speaker 02

  Yep. Well, the longer the better. These platforms like people to stay on these platforms. So if you can be interesting for 40 minutes, which you

• 48:46Speaker 04

  Does it?

• 48:46Speaker 02

  I hate to admit it, but you do a pretty good job of it. Yeah, YouTube's usually like, yeah, we like this guy.

• 48:52Speaker 04

  Yeah, it's like listening to your dad, where Kent War stories.

• 48:55The Fat Electrician?

  But it's also like, you have that level, like, the other day, it is that tism that makes you successful. When you break down certain stuff where it is the stuff, a lot of people would gloss over with analytics or things like that. If you don't track your analytics and see what works versus what doesn't, you're going to fail. Next like, hey, guess what? I talk at this speed.

• 49:14Speaker 04

  Oh, yeah.

• 49:15The Fat Electrician?

  Oh, yeah.

• 49:15Speaker 04

  Nobody knows this secret.

• 49:17The Fat Electrician?

  Okay, never mind. Fuck you.

• 49:18Speaker 04

  Nobody knows that secret. 92.

• 49:20Speaker 02

  Tell me.

• 49:20Speaker 04

  Then cut it out after.

• 49:23Speaker 02

  Sir, you need to be cadent.

• 49:24Speaker 04

  I need to be cadent. Tell them about 92 beats a minute.

• 49:28Speaker 02

  You've researched cadence of speaking?

• 49:30The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 49:30Speaker 02

  That's awesome.

• 49:31The Fat Electrician?

  You can cut this out if you want. 92 beats per minute.

• 49:34Speaker 02

  Do you have a metronome going when you talk?

• 49:35The Fat Electrician?

  Uh, no, but I listen to it while I'm reading.

• 49:41Speaker 04

  This is gonna make me so angry.

• 49:42Speaker 02

  I'm so fucking hard right now. Zach, that's the level of analytics I need in my life.

• 49:46The Fat Electrician?

  Zach, that other with the sign came to my house and he's like, why do you have a Yamaha metronome on your next to your bookshelf? I was like,

• 49:53Speaker 04

  Well.

• 49:54The Fat Electrician?

  cuz. And he goes, do you play an instrument? I go, no. He's like, why? I go, I speak at 92 beats per minute. And he just goes, you're a fucking psycho.

• 50:04Speaker 04

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Mama mia, I could only get so erect.

• 50:07The Fat Electrician?

  And well, no, Zach goes, he goes, I forget which country music star he said it was, but he goes, are you familiar with like so and so? And I was like, I mean, yeah, I've heard of him. He goes, and how he ruined country music? And I go, no, why? And he goes, all the songs he makes are at 92 beats per minute. And it's or all these, all the songs that he makes are at a certain like beats per minute. And basically, he figured out that if you sing and have your music at night, this beats per minute thing, you were guaranteed to be Billboard top 100, even if your song fucking sucks, just because people naturally like that cadence.

• 50:39Speaker 04

  Pleasing cadence.

• 50:39The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, it's 92 beats per minute. That's what I speak at. And he goes, you're fucking insane.

• 50:45Speaker 03

  I was like, I love Nick so much.

• 50:47Speaker 02

  The number one secret the music industry doesn't want you to know.

• 50:51Speaker 04

  Alexa, add metronome to shopping.

• 50:53Speaker 02

  Yeah, well.

• 50:54The Fat Electrician?

  Fun fact, if you buy a metronome, it's like forty, sixty, fifty, ninety-two, one hundred, one twenty. It's like nice round numbers and then ninety-two.

• 51:02Speaker 02

  Is that really like, so that's a thing, obviously?

• 51:05The Fat Electrician?

  No, ninety-two beats per minute is like a well-known thing in the music industry. Like it's, people love it.

• 51:10Speaker 03

  It's not reinventing the wheel. I always say, look what works and you can just, humans are very simple creatures at the end of the day and you get to break it down. It's like Mr. We were talking about Mr. Beast, even like how he breaks down human interaction or retention beats and learning all these things. It's like, that was a new one. I was like, huh?

• 51:28Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 51:29Speaker 04

  I know I'm doing good. I throw Eli off.

• 51:31Speaker 03

  I know.

• 51:34Speaker 02

  I mean, I'm sitting next to some of the biggest analytic nerds on the planet right now. If you can trip up this motherfucker, you know you're stumming on something like out of the archaic minds of Mordor, dude.

• 51:44The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, literally. This is either weapons-grade success or completely retarded.

• 51:52Speaker 06

• 52:22The Fat Electrician?

  This is way over here or way over here.

• 52:26Speaker 02

  Dude, how's the content going? Well, I've been speaking at ninety-two beats per minute. Things are going really good. I just set the metronome up and just fucking hit it and then like beat up, download my views and too much.

• 52:34The Fat Electrician?

  I hear the clicks.

• 52:34Speaker 02

  People don't even listen to the words. They're just in their head like. It's fucking nice.

• 52:42Speaker 04

  I like to listen to all of their podcasts just straight through and everything just flows so good. I can't figure out why. What's happening?

• 52:47Speaker 03

  Dude is so, well, it's like Frank's were saying, like 30 is what the average individual is why the podcast 60 is weird unless you're watching sports. 24 is when you're conditioned to movies, but you have to separate them because the audience will know what is going on.

• 53:01Speaker 02

  They don't know what's going on, but they know it doesn't feel right.

• 53:03Speaker 03

  Yeah. And dude, and they're so fast. Like, I'm uncomfortable.

• 53:06Speaker 02

  Cinema 24, like you said, yeah, it's so weird. It's like these things that are standards that have been so kind of just become so normalized now in our consumption of media or audio, whatever it is, that once you kind of hit that new standard, if you try to stray from that, or you can do like, you can make creative decisions that are cool, but there is some weird element of just you have to do what people are comfortable with, like 80% of the way, and then be cute with the 20%, because otherwise you're just gonna be like, fuck this, this feels weird.

• 53:36Speaker 04

  Deviation is either desire or death, man. It's, it's gonna be, it's gonna be amazing. You're gonna come up with something great, or you know what? You had a good run.

• 53:44Speaker 03

  Get out.

• 53:46Speaker 04

  Remember when you used to be good and then you released that one video that was completely different and then that's it, you're done.

• 53:52Speaker 03

  Adapt and overcome.

• 53:53Speaker 04

  That's it.

• 53:54Speaker 03

  That is a hard thing. Everyone's, yeah, come. I love watching everyone's like growing up in social media now and seeing what, as you're doing. It's like, oh, this is not working. Okay. Let's pivot here. Let's do this. Fuck, this is, nope, that doesn't work anymore. History is just a go-to. Nick crushes it. When you're that, dude, I will say the, when everyone's showing up at the event and 90% are Nick's shirts, I'm like, son of a bitch. And it's also thank you, everyone that walks up and they're like, yeah, it is because we do pick on them and they're like, Nick, you're my favorite. But when it's like four people and they're like, you're my favorite, you're like, damn.

• 54:39Speaker 04

  I don't know if you saw, but I'm standing right here. You probably missed it. That's my fault. I'll, I'll wear brighter shoes next time.

• 54:46Speaker 03

  Who's your second favorite?

• 54:49Speaker 02

  Haven't even thought about that. To be honest, yeah, I'm here for Nick.

• 54:53Speaker 04

  Who's your first favorite? Nick. Who's your second? Matt from Devon?

• 54:56Speaker 03

  I hope your seats suck.

• 54:58Speaker 02

  You.

• 54:58The Fat Electrician?

  When like.

• 54:59Speaker 02

  Coming.

• 55:00The Fat Electrician?

  When Eli Eli is like, who wants to hear Nick tell a history story? And there's like cheering. And then I do like that. Today we're talking about, and it's from like the rowdiest crowd on the planet to everybody's just like.

• 55:12Speaker 02

  Pin drop.

• 55:13Speaker 03

  Yeah, just dead.

• 55:14Speaker 04

  It just gets dead quiet.

• 55:15Speaker 03

  That's exactly.

• 55:16The Fat Electrician?

  That's insane.

• 55:17Speaker 04

  And you did like, I think on Boston, he did like maybe three or four, three or four.

• 55:21The Fat Electrician?

  I was doing quite a few.

• 55:22Speaker 04

  And it was just.

• 55:22Speaker 03

  Yeah, way too.

• 55:23Speaker 02

  Yeah, they were responding well to it. I mean, you're, listen, there's, you're a good storyteller, obviously, and that like, as everybody knows, being a good storyteller is like the one skill that's tough to replicate. And if you're good at that, you can capitalize on that.

• 55:34Speaker 04

  Ninety two beats, man.

• 55:35Speaker 02

  Very clear. Yeah. Ninety two PPM storyteller.

• 55:38Speaker 03

  Everyone knows that.

• 55:39Speaker 02

  History, you know, war, gun.

• 55:41The Fat Electrician?

  Strategic genius of looking at military history, be like, you know what? This needs more dick jokes.

• 55:45Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 55:47The Fat Electrician?

  Full time job right there.

• 55:49Speaker 02

  Boom, career.

• 55:53Speaker 04

  Doing the yeoman's work.

• 55:54The Fat Electrician?

  What if instead of having a history teacher in a tie on the History Channel, if some dude with no sleeves and a camo hat said dick jokes in between all the important facts, fucking perfect.

• 56:04Speaker 02

  Stars were.

• 56:05The Fat Electrician?

  Nail people up.

• 56:05Speaker 02

  Stars are aligning, yeah.

• 56:07The Fat Electrician?

  It's exactly what people wanted, apparently.

• 56:08Speaker 04

  Scroll, scroll, scroll. Nobody's doing this. I got this.

• 56:12Speaker 03

  Fucking. Now you're doing a police breakdown. You're doing people being drunk, idiot retards.

• 56:19Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 56:19Speaker 03

  Doing.

• 56:20Speaker 02

  Yeah, there's.

• 56:21Speaker 03

  Everything.

• 56:21Speaker 02

  There's no shortage of just content online coming up every week of people doing really stupid shit online. So I have a series called Brain Worms, which is where it's like, kind of a culmination after a couple of weeks. It's like, all right, let's look through the last two to three weeks and see what fucking moron got caught on camera, being absolutely retarded.

• 56:38Speaker 03

  That, I think she was a Mexican girl at the airport.

• 56:42Speaker 02

  Hmm. Airports are like.

• 56:44Speaker 03

  Dude, that girl just parked, was she wrecked her Tesla and then didn't want to give her information? They were trying to be.

• 56:49Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 56:50Speaker 03

  So kind.

• 56:51Speaker 02

  So nice.

• 56:51Speaker 03

  So patient, like thirty minutes of patience.

• 56:54Speaker 02

  I'm convinced that there are people that intrinsically are dying to be arrested for no reason. Like the cut, like some of these body cams I watch and.

• 57:00Speaker 04

  Yeah, a hundred percent.

• 57:01Speaker 02

  With like, they have every opportunity to be like, oh, that sucks. I fucked up. Here's my information. Good to see you. I'll be on. My way and it's just like every opportunity they have to be a super or like something. I'm like, what are you doing? Like you, all you have to do is say like three sentences and you get to go home. Go to bed and like you got written a $50 citation and instead you're screaming like a goat in the back of a squad car right now. And pissing your fucking pants and then getting throttled at the hospital, then to the police. Like, what are we doing? It's like this kind of masochism in our society where there's this weird, uh, these people that just can't envision complying with any sort of authority. Because they've been so brainwashed into thinking like they bad, me right, good.

• 57:45Speaker 02

  So it's just like, I'm watching this and I'm like, say three words. Thank you, officer. On your way. You're fine. Like, and instead you're, you're now facing like three felony charges, resisting arrest. And it's like.

• 57:58Speaker 04

  Believe it or not, this could have gone easier.

• 58:00Speaker 02

  Yeah, it could have. And I just watch these things and I say at the beginning of my videos, like, you know, welcome to Brainworks. Thanks for watching, where we gather here today to watch people being absolute retards because it makes us feel modically or moderately better about our own lives. Because you, you like, you spend any time online and you're like, my life's not that bad, honestly. Like, I know I got problems, but like, I don't got this kind of problem. I don't have like these problems. This is some fucked up, these people are doing.

• 58:24Speaker 03

  It's like, and these people exist as which is the, but like, it is, dude, this girl, holy shit. I've never seen like the officer, like 45 minutes of trying to give her a break. It's like, ma'am, like she's super patient and she's like, my ID and then the car, no, this is my car. And he's like, ma'am. Talking on the phone and she's just an asshole. It's like, fuck you. And he's like, okay. Hey, can you come get her? Mam, you can't say that. Yes, you can go back in the car. You're not supposed to. You get one chance. Okay, we're gonna count down and yet. Nothing. Just utter disregard.

• 58:57Speaker 02

  And she's like, on, like on her phone, ignoring them, telling them to fuck off, like the whole nine. And I mean, there's.

• 59:06Speaker 02

  There's definitely a level of ignorance to it. I think some of them are young. Obviously, there's booze and whatever drugs involved, which exacerbates any situation ever.

• 59:14Speaker 03

  Always helps.

• 59:15Speaker 02

  I always say like, what I'm doing, like I'm the guy watching this, like drinking whiskey, being like, look at these drunk assholes as I'm like drinking in my office, like making fun of the drunk assholes, getting drunk myself. But there's like a level of, I don't know how to put it, like there's, there's people, there's good drinkers and people that just shouldn't drink ever, right? You know, and there's just, there's kind of like a very hard line. And a lot of times, yeah, yeah, everybody knows that.

• 59:39Speaker 03

  Knowing our profiles.

• 59:40Speaker 02

  Yeah. Yeah. And some people, they just hit a certain point, it doesn't need to be a lot, where they just become so aggressively resistant to any sort of reasonable solution to an easy problem.

• 59:54Speaker 04

  Holy shit. Switch flicks and it's over.

• 59:56The Fat Electrician?

  He just like, you saying it with the alcohol is like, just gave me the idea. Do you think stupid people are just perpetually drunk the entire, their entire lives?

• 1:00:06Speaker 04

  Some of the absolute.

• 1:00:07Speaker 02

  Some of them, yes.

• 1:00:08The Fat Electrician?

  You think like we're just operating at a higher level and we have to dumb ourselves down to have fun and they're stuck being stupid and they get angry about it? And that's why they can't handle dealing with like cops or any stressful situations?

• 1:00:21Speaker 04

  Some of, some of the best.

• 1:00:23The Fat Electrician?

  So you just, you're perpetually fucking 80% lit your entire life because you're an idiot?

• 1:00:29Speaker 02

  I think there's probably a level to that. Yeah. But there is, there is a level of like, they just, I'm always watching these being like, I'm a very pragmatic, like point A to point B. All right. Here's the situation you're in. It sucks. What's the easiest way to get to the best resolution from here to there? All right. It's three steps. It's not that hard. Like you have to face the consequences of where you're at right now, but there's an easy way to get to the best resolution from here. And I just think that's like a level that like, some people just don't understand how to have that sort of foresight into situations. And that's never been more apparent when you watch people going through arrests or whatever it might be situations, high stress situations. Some people really don't deal well with stress.

• 1:01:11Speaker 03

  No, I know. I, I never, even with some of the guys that go on high stress situations, like you have different parts of your life and how you measure stress. I handle stress pretty decently. Like I'm like, my rules is like, am I getting shot at? No. Cool.

• 1:01:29Speaker 03

  Yeah, like literally, it takes a very, a lot to get me to that level. I'm like, oh shit. Here I have to react. But then I see other people where it is like. Small things. I am getting pulled over for a speeding ticket and this is. And now I'm a felon.

• 1:01:43Speaker 02

  Now I'm a felon. It's a hundred dollar ticket. Just be like, oh, sorry. Thanks. See you later. Twenty second interaction. Twenty second interaction. You're on to go to your aunt's house to eat baklava. Whatever the fuck you're doing. I don't care.

• 1:01:57Speaker 04

  Do we have baklava?

• 1:01:58Speaker 02

  And now you're in jail overnight and you're a felon because you have zero emotional control. And that's what I always say. It's like there is like being able to have a handle on your emotions. And how you let those affect your behavior is is basically a superpower. Like that's like if you can have a decent handle on your emotions and not letting them affect your outward actions. Like you can think about it. You can feel it, but you're self aware about how it's making you feel. And before doing that thing you want to do, rationalizing it and thinking about it logically before you act, superpower. You can do anything.

• 1:02:28Speaker 03

  Literally.

• 1:02:29Speaker 04

  You can do absolutely anything.

• 1:02:30The Fat Electrician?

  You are like, I handle stress pretty well. And I realized like, I've known you for like three years now. We're, I think of episode fifty six was our first pod. We've done hundreds of podcasts together.

• 1:02:41Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:02:42The Fat Electrician?

  Two hours apiece, hundreds of hours of bullshitting, hundreds of hours after the scenes, bullshitting. And I've seen Eli run at two modes the entire time. Literally Eli's had two moods the entire time I've known him. It's eighty percent right here, working, or I'm tired. I need to go to bed.

• 1:03:02Speaker 02

  That's literally Eli's two whole fucking moods.

• 1:03:05Speaker 03

  I met both of them yesterday.

• 1:03:06The Fat Electrician?

  Yesterday, Eli, it's one thirty. Do you want to go to IHOP with me?

• 1:03:10Speaker 03

  Ooh.

• 1:03:12The Fat Electrician?

  I'm old. I have to go to bed.

• 1:03:18The Fat Electrician?

  IHOP at two AM.

• 1:03:19Speaker 03

  I don't want to sleep back.

• 1:03:21Speaker 04

  I could, I could, but have you ever, have you slept once before?

• 1:03:23The Fat Electrician?

  Love you guys.

• 1:03:24Speaker 04

  Sleeping's great.

• 1:03:25Speaker 03

  Sleeping's great. Takes a whole level to get me to that next where it's like anger switch flip or anything.

• 1:03:31Speaker 04

  It's it's instant. Like your your mood is is everything, you know, and alcohol and drugs.

• 1:03:36Speaker 03

  Murder time.

• 1:03:37The Fat Electrician?

  So have we, have we considered suing RFK for trademark infringement with.

• 1:03:43The Fat Electrician?

  Brain worms.

• 1:03:43Speaker 02

  Brain worms. We haven't. I think we should.

• 1:03:50Speaker 02

  So the brain worms like branding like I started years ago. I just, I don't know where it's probably like 2020.

• 1:03:55The Fat Electrician?

  It was like, I knew about it.

• 1:03:56Speaker 02

  I did my first one in 2020 during the pandemic when the world really just ultimately shit the bed on a macro scale. And there were just videos of like all of the most ridiculous encounters of people with masking and all this going on. I just, I was recording a video live and I was like, this motherfucker has brain worms or something. And then that just became a thing. And here we are, four years later, RFK all of a sudden has brain worms. I'm like, you son of a bitch. I would like royalties first of all.

• 1:04:22The Fat Electrician?

  I'm just saying that's rude.

• 1:04:23Speaker 02

  That's what I mean. It's rude. But no, I actually looked it up afterwards because I was like, that's probably a thing. And I searched brain worms on Google and it's, I guess, a before whatever RFK had, it was a disease that affects deer or something. Where it's like a parasite that can affect deer, but it was very niche, basically. And I was like, all right, this is cool. So like, I own the domain. I have a little bit of merch, but I haven't done much with it because I'm lazy and old, but like, there's potential.

• 1:04:49The Fat Electrician?

  It's okay. I got, I got a company. We'll help you out. Brain worm shit.

• 1:04:52Speaker 02

  You know anyone that makes merch?

• 1:04:53The Fat Electrician?

  No, I don't. I mean, I could probably help you. Yeah.

• 1:04:57The Fat Electrician?

  No, that brain worm thing though. So it's deer and moose. So like, I'm in, uh, North Iowa. So there will be like, there's no moose in North Iowa, but like once in a while, there'll be a fucking moose and it's like all over the news. Cause there's these brain worms get inside a moose.

• 1:05:12Speaker 02

  And they go crazy.

• 1:05:14The Fat Electrician?

  Make them migrate south and do crazy shit. That's like the only time a moose will ever make it that far south down to Iowa. It's got this brain parasite that makes it fucking.

• 1:05:24Speaker 02

  They're like, completely goes against their instincts, basically.

• 1:05:28The Fat Electrician?

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:05:29Speaker 04

  There's a parasite that makes moose just straight go for a stroll.

• 1:05:32The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, legit, straight south. Yeah, parasites are horrifying.

• 1:05:36Speaker 02

  It's like moose rabies.

• 1:05:37The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, there's the one that like makes the crickets jump into the water because the parasite can only replicate in water.

• 1:05:43Speaker 04

  How nuts is that?

• 1:05:44The Fat Electrician?

  Forces the fucking cricket to drown itself.

• 1:05:46Speaker 02

  Have you ever done any content on parasites?

• 1:05:48The Fat Electrician?

  I have not. It's horrifying.

• 1:05:49Speaker 02

  Having this conversation, I'm thinking like, I've seen little tidbits of like how parasites work where they like go into the host and like take over the neural functions. It's unbelievably horrifying, but incredibly interesting.

• 1:06:01Speaker 04

  It's wild.

• 1:06:02Speaker 02

  Like that would make a pretty good.

• 1:06:03The Fat Electrician?

  Nature is terrifying. Fat electrician video. Plasmosis horrifies me.

• 1:06:07Speaker 02

  Toxins, oh yeah.

• 1:06:08The Fat Electrician?

  Toxoplasmosis, the cat poop worms that get in your brain. Like.

• 1:06:13Speaker 04

  Yeah, that's scary stuff.

• 1:06:14The Fat Electrician?

  Like, that's why.

• 1:06:15Speaker 04

  And it's very real.

• 1:06:15The Fat Electrician?

  That's why pregnant women aren't supposed to be around fucking cats. Is cat poop has a worm in it that can infect humans and it gets in your fucking brain. And makes you like the smell of cat piss. And this is like, they think this is where the crazy cat lady archetype comes from is like, oh, you have worms in your brain from cats that make you like the smell of cat piss and being surrounded by cats.

• 1:06:39Speaker 04

  It's wild.

• 1:06:39The Fat Electrician?

  Show.

• 1:06:40Speaker 04

  It's not super, super common, but it's nuts.

• 1:06:42Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 1:06:44Speaker 02

  Alright, she doesn't have it yet.

• 1:06:45Speaker 03

  Unless you have worms.

• 1:06:47Speaker 04

  Show, do you have extensive knowledge of the, uh?

• 1:06:50Speaker 02

  She's over there with like a fucking flask.

• 1:06:53Speaker 02

  I hate that smell. It's terrible.

• 1:06:56Speaker 07

  This is new information.

• 1:06:57Speaker 02

  Also.

• 1:06:58Speaker 03

  Oh yeah, Dan's scary. He was like, I love cat piss.

• 1:07:02Speaker 04

  He was like, there's nine bottles.

• 1:07:04Speaker 02

  You guys get this too.

• 1:07:05Speaker 07

  I'm so tired. I did a double take. I was like, wait, no.

• 1:07:11Speaker 02

  Are you tired or is it brain worms?

• 1:07:14Speaker 04

  Show's always asking to clean out the litter box. I never can figure it out.

• 1:07:17Speaker 07

  Highlight of my day.

• 1:07:20Speaker 07

  Is Chris crossing that brain eating amoeba that happens down like in the south, like kills a couple of people a year.

• 1:07:25Speaker 02

  Oh, it happens all over the country.

• 1:07:26Speaker 03

  That's never one. There's a bunch of.

• 1:07:28Speaker 04

  That's mess.

• 1:07:29Speaker 03

  Brain eating amoebas.

• 1:07:30The Fat Electrician?

  No, there's a real brain eating amoeba. It's fucking horrifying.

• 1:07:32Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:07:33Speaker 02

  Where do you get it? Like water or something?

• 1:07:34The Fat Electrician?

  Like stagnant water, like ponds. So like you can go swimming in a pond and it goes in through your nasal cavity. And like it's fucking, it's actually really terrifying. Cause it's like, there's like a lot of like seventeen year old kids that go to fucking summer camp. Like, oh, you've got a brain eating amoeba that we can't cure. Enjoy slowly going mentally disabled until you die over the course of the next three months. It's fucking terrifying shit.

• 1:07:57Speaker 04

  Terrifying.

• 1:07:57Speaker 02

  Wow, yeah, I never heard of that.

• 1:07:58Speaker 04

  Time to stay inside and play video games.

• 1:08:00Speaker 02

  Yeah, stay away from the stagnant ponds, I guess. That's fucked up.

• 1:08:03The Fat Electrician?

  Dude, that's, that's scary shit.

• 1:08:05Speaker 02

  Not going to India and swimming. That's why I go to the ocean. I'm an ocean guy.

• 1:08:09The Fat Electrician?

  Something that'll interest you when you start doing long form, but interest you right now. I think you told me this and I had no idea. So you can't say the C word on YouTube.

• 1:08:17Speaker 02

  Correct.

• 1:08:17The Fat Electrician?

  Obviously. Yeah. So like you get in trouble, you get.

• 1:08:19Speaker 02

  I said it on this podcast. I'm sorry. Censor out.

• 1:08:22The Fat Electrician?

  But that's what reminded me of it is like, we're gonna have to bleep that out later.

• 1:08:26Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:08:26The Fat Electrician?

  Which is fine. We'll catch it. It's no big deal. But I think it was Eli that told me that.

• 1:08:31Speaker 03

  There's a way around it.

• 1:08:32The Fat Electrician?

  If you're Australian or Irish, or you're from a culture where that is not an offensive term and you just casually use it.

• 1:08:39Speaker 02

  It's a term of endearment.

• 1:08:40The Fat Electrician?

  You're a hundred percent allowed to say it on YouTube. So like, literally, we could have Show or Dave come up here as Irish, Ireland citizens, not American citizens. They could say it and allegedly, it would be completely monetized, no issue whatsoever.

• 1:08:54Speaker 04

  So if you could just come up here and drop seventeen C bars.

• 1:08:58The Fat Electrician?

  You gotta say it with the accent. They judge.

• 1:09:00Speaker 03

  With Buffalo, with Buffalo, you said, right?

• 1:09:01The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 1:09:02Speaker 03

  We're like, where's our little Irish girl? And she walks up, it's like, say it.

• 1:09:10Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:09:10Speaker 03

  And then the microphone, the car's like, ah!

• 1:09:14Speaker 07

  I think you'd get away with it if I just like spoke the entire time on the podcast with an Australian accent. Do you think you'd get away with it?

• 1:09:21Speaker 04

  We could try.

• 1:09:23Speaker 04

  It'll sound like a How Ridiculous episode.

• 1:09:26Speaker 04

  How good.

• 1:09:27Speaker 03

  Like, are we gonna risk you? We're still censoring that.

• 1:09:29The Fat Electrician?

  All right. So, live show. You guys got to see the donkey story from our friend Zach.

• 1:09:34Speaker 04

  Yeah, yeah. That was ridiculous.

• 1:09:37The Fat Electrician?

  It is. He is refined. That's it is straight up like S tier comedy bit that he has it refined down to.

• 1:09:44Speaker 02

  Agreed.

• 1:09:45Speaker 04

  You could tell that story, just sitting at a desk, just face to face, and it would be insane and it would be hilarious. Seeing that in person, inconsolable.

• 1:09:55The Fat Electrician?

  It's literally his Burt Kreischer, the machine story. It's so good. It's one of those ones where like, you could have heard the story five times. You're like, I'm down to hear it again, though. Just on the off chance you remember a little tidbit that you didn't last time I heard it.

• 1:10:08Speaker 03

  So especially with you guys reenacting.

• 1:10:10Speaker 02

  That's what I was. I was obviously familiar with the story. Like, I'd seen the story when you first did it on the show. And then like it going, getting a lot of traction on Twitter and whatever else and. So after he did it, because it was early on in the show, he came up and sat next to me and joined me and I was like having just thought I was like, dude, that was so funny. He was like, oh dude, really? He's like, oh, I appreciate that. He's like, I had no idea. I was like, dude, that was like, it felt like that's something you've been doing your whole life. And the physical, adding the physical comedy piece to it with Rich being the donkey and the fucking like the wall behavior, like the high or whatever you guys were doing. It's the late, the late kick. Like this is the golden.

• 1:10:48Speaker 03

  That was a, that fit brilliance of alcohol and Nick, we should reenact this. By, by Nashville one to Nashville two, enough drinks had been drunk. It's like, let's reenact.

• 1:11:00Speaker 02

  So that was like the second or third time that it happened?

• 1:11:03The Fat Electrician?

  That was the second time we stayed night. Zach lives in Nashville, so he was just naturally like he was gonna be there regardless. Oh, fuck it. We'll bring up, let's tell the donkey story. People love it. They've probably heard it, but I mean, it's.

• 1:11:13Speaker 02

  And did you reenact it in Nashville?

• 1:11:14The Fat Electrician?

  Well, no. So in Nashville, we did two shows back to back.

• 1:11:17Speaker 02

  Oh, terrible, terrible.

• 1:11:20The Fat Electrician?

  It was a terrible, that was a fucking, what you call a learning experience. So like, we did, so it's like VIP, we meet seventy-five to a hundred people, shake hands, take pictures. Everybody's great. Go do our show, go backstage. We had like forty-five minutes to eat, piss, pretend we weren't shitfaced. And then go back, do VIP again, meet another seventy-five to a hundred people.

• 1:11:42Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:11:43The Fat Electrician?

  And like honestly, twenty-five of them were probably at the last show. Like we had people buying double tickets.

• 1:11:48Speaker 02

  Just like two of these comes with you.

• 1:11:50The Fat Electrician?

  I made sure to run up to them after.

• 1:11:52Speaker 02

  John?

• 1:11:52The Fat Electrician?

  How was the second show? And they're like, the second show was way more aggressive. So we're fucking hammered.

• 1:11:59Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:11:59The Fat Electrician?

  We act like literally none of us remember the second show.

• 1:12:02Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:12:02The Fat Electrician?

  At all.

• 1:12:03Speaker 02

  Lazy.

• 1:12:03The Fat Electrician?

  And apparently the second show is when we decided to reenact the donkey part, because we told the story twice.

• 1:12:10Speaker 02

  Silver linings then. And now, and now you're like, wow, okay.

• 1:12:13The Fat Electrician?

  Good. We're keeping that part of it.

• 1:12:15Speaker 04

  No, that was ridiculous.

• 1:12:17The Fat Electrician?

  The, the reason I bring it up is because like everybody, you know, Zach deployed in the military. He's got his donkey story. We all have that one crazy hallmark moment story from our career. So what's your donkey story?

• 1:12:29Speaker 04

  My donkey story? Okay. Yeah. Yeah. I, oh, I got a donkey story. I've, I probably have a couple, but uh, I'll, I'll give the most recent one. Good. I've, uh, I've almost delivered a baby. I got to the house. We got to the house too late and she was already delivered and uh, actually what's really cool is I actually got to meet the baby a couple years later, which is actually really cool. And then I got to deliver a baby, which was actually amazing, which apparently is in, in my department is even just insane, which is just, I don't think it's happened. I think I might be one of the first or maybe the second to do it. But I got dispatched. I actually made a video about this and it sounded completely ridiculous. And the reason I made a video about it is because it sounded completely ridiculous. I got dispatched to a house. Uh, it was, uh, it was in a different town. We got a mutual aid call.

• 1:13:11Speaker 04

  And uh, the call was for an, a, a 42 year old male who was, uh, look, who was, who was apparently attempting to eat mailboxes, eat mailboxes, uh, rusty mailboxes. Eat rusty mailboxes after taking one or several illicit substances. Medic dispatched. Alright, so we get to the house.

• 1:13:31The Fat Electrician?

  The funniest part is eating a mailbox is a felony, by the way.

• 1:13:36Speaker 04

  We pull up to the house, you know? We pull up to the house.

• 1:13:40The Fat Electrician?

  That's illegal, dog.

• 1:13:42Speaker 04

  We pull up to the house and there's a guy who's out, literally, it's gotta be the only actual physical standing mailbox in town. And he's got his face on the fucking mailbox. And we get there. I'm like, buddy, what's going on? They're, they're saying that you're trying to eat mailboxes. And he looks at me with the straightest face, like the absolute deadpan straightest face. And he's like, I'm not trying to eat a mailbox. I'm just licking it. And I was like, oh yeah, no, that's way better. Yeah. A hundred percent. This is good. We're fine. Everything's fine. We're just licking mailboxes.

• 1:14:11The Fat Electrician?

  Like was it winter and it was cold and metal or?

• 1:14:13Speaker 04

  No, he was, he was just strong. He was gone. I couldn't even tell you what he took. Um, but yeah, he was just sitting there just licking mailboxes and I'm like.

• 1:14:22The Fat Electrician?

  The fucking Tootsie Pop owls over there. How many lips does it take?

• 1:14:26Speaker 04

  I mean, he's gonna wear right through this thing.

• 1:14:28Speaker 03

  When we went to uh the German place and we were walking the history, remember that one guy that was a nurse or doctor? He was telling that one story about the homeless dude or the crazy guy that ate his eyeball. And then when the guy was like. Where the fuck was I? Was I drunk? Did you miss this? Yeah. It was a dude ate his eyeball and then Brandon and he's like, oh, the, the, the, yeah, like you wanted to see inside his stomach, da, da, da, da, like.

• 1:14:54Speaker 04

  That's how you do it.

• 1:14:57Speaker 03

  Brandon, it did not register Brandon. Brandon was like, oh, I was like, Brandon, I don't think here's. He's, he ate his eyeball because he wanted to see inside. He was like, oh my God. There it is. I got Bluetooth eyeballs.

• 1:15:13Speaker 03

  And he was like, like, okay, what do you see? He's like, it's dark.

• 1:15:23Speaker 03

  This is at that bar like across. I was like, what the? Is this story right now? It's dark forever.

• 1:15:35Speaker 04

  That's about what it looks like. You're not, you're not wrong.

• 1:15:37Speaker 03

  Wild dude. I was like, well, that's crazy, right? He ate his eyeball to see inside his stomach and was asked, what do you see? He's like, it's dark.

• 1:15:48Speaker 03

  You didn't bring a flashlight, dude?

• 1:15:50Speaker 04

  You messed up.

• 1:15:50Speaker 03

  Imagine that. You're like, let me see.

• 1:15:55Speaker 03

  Is he mentally stable? What does it smell like? Hold on, I'll get.

• 1:16:01Speaker 03

  Smells like shit. It's very irony.

• 1:16:03Speaker 02

  I'm just surprised he could still see after he took his eye out.

• 1:16:06Speaker 04

  Yeah, it's pretty, pretty impressive.

• 1:16:07Speaker 02

  A lot of light out here. This is very, it's dark in there though. A lot of stomach acid. This burns.

• 1:16:15Speaker 03

  Like what the?

• 1:16:16Speaker 04

  Oh no.

• 1:16:17Speaker 03

  Fuck. And watching Brandon like process when I said it's like, he ate his eye to see. He's like, oh my God, what the?

• 1:16:25Speaker 04

  There it is.

• 1:16:27Speaker 02

  Sorry, where were we?

• 1:16:29Speaker 03

  What about you? What is your like fucking?

• 1:16:31Speaker 02

  Hold on, I want to finish this story.

• 1:16:33Speaker 04

  Oh yeah, so he's sitting there, he's licking mailboxes and the officers are like, yeah, this is, this is just how we found him. Like, there wasn't even a call. We were driving down the street and this guy was licking a mailbox, reading a mailbox. And I was just like, um. Okay, well, uh. Let's, uh, let's, let's go to the hospital. You know, we gotta, we gotta take care of him, you know, we treat. You don't lose your empathy, you don't lose your sympathy, you know, you make sure you take care of everybody, right? Everybody, everybody, every time, right? So we're like, alright bud, so here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna take a trip. We're gonna go to the hospital. He looks at me and he goes, if you fucking touch me, I'm gonna kill you. And I was like, good.

• 1:17:04Speaker 02

  My empathy's up.

• 1:17:06Speaker 04

  I'm like, guys, if you could just, uh, you're gonna, you're gonna have to take the ride with us on this one.

• 1:17:09Speaker 03

  To the cops?

• 1:17:11Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:17:13Speaker 04

  He's like, oh, okay. He's like, nah, I'm just going with the fucking. He just goes in the ambulance, sits on the bench like this, real, real angrily, just sitting like this. I'm like, I'm like, it's two o'clock in the morning, I'm inconveniencing you? Like, what are you doing here? So we end up taking him to the hospital and he jumps off the stretch, it's the hospital we go to all the time, right? So I'm constantly there, they know, they know me by face, they, they know me by ambulance, they know me by schedule. And I'm just like, alright, we're gonna go. He jumps out the ambulance, runs directly into the ER, smashes face first into the doors that don't open up unless you get buzzed in. I'm just like, I'm like, I'm not even getting paid for this. Like, I am a volunteer. Like, they need to raise my volunteer salary from nothing to something after this. And it's just like, I'm like, alright.

• 1:17:56Speaker 03

  It's like an IHOP gift card.

• 1:17:57Speaker 04

  Literally something. Like, give me, give me some love here. All I get is a freaking brand new hat every two years. Like, I can't live like this.

• 1:18:04Speaker 03

  You're not a volunteer still, right?

• 1:18:05Speaker 04

  I'm still a volunteer. Yeah, I, I have a per diem EMS job. My, my career job is I'm a 911 dispatcher for a police department. That's my, my career. So I, I just happened to pick up a per diem EMS job as well, but my, I've, I've been volunteer since, since I started EMS.

• 1:18:17Speaker 03

  You're a low-key fucking.

• 1:18:19The Fat Electrician?

  Psychopath.

• 1:18:20Speaker 03

  I'm gonna be an EMT during covid in 2020.

• 1:18:24Speaker 02

  I'm also a volunteer.

• 1:18:26Speaker 03

  They've offered salaries multiple times.

• 1:18:28Speaker 04

  They have, they have.

• 1:18:29Speaker 02

  They're like, no, I don't get off.

• 1:18:31Speaker 04

  My, my, my specific departments offered me the, the, a paid department spot, paid work during the day, volleys work at night and uh.

• 1:18:37The Fat Electrician?

  You gotta quit social media though.

• 1:18:38Speaker 04

  Yeah, I'm good. Yeah, that's honestly, that's basically what it would have been.

• 1:18:41Speaker 03

  Really?

• 1:18:42Speaker 04

  What it would have amounted to, yeah.

• 1:18:43Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:18:44Speaker 04

  Yeah, they were, they were not what you would call thrilled about it, but the place I record now does not mind. They, they love it, so.

• 1:18:49Speaker 03

  Did you get individuals like rich being, and your cost being in the military still? And then a Buffalo PD is the most ridiculous thing. And you're like, bro, you do not need to be a, either of those. You don't need to quite find on the YouTube.

• 1:19:03The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, I didn't realize you were a volunteer this entire time.

• 1:19:06Speaker 04

  Yeah, I've never, I, and I, and I won't, uh, I, I've told my department all, uh, many times, cause yeah. You, you, your volunteer contract is, contract is based on, you know, they sent me to EMT school, so I, I owe them. Right? So they, you know, I'm basically paying back my EMT school through a certain amount of time.

• 1:19:22The Fat Electrician?

  You paid it back?

• 1:19:23Speaker 04

  So I have, so after, after three.

• 1:19:25The Fat Electrician?

  The first butt thing?

• 1:19:26Speaker 04

  Done.

• 1:19:28Speaker 03

  Birth dude at the range. Good. That amount of PTSD? That, that, that cleared.

• 1:19:35The Fat Electrician?

  I just imagine him at EMT school, like, so people aren't supposed to shove stuff up their ass. And he's like, bro, I'm gonna be so rich.

• 1:19:44Speaker 04

  Somebody write that down.

• 1:19:48Speaker 04

  But yeah, that's, that's pretty much what, uh, what it was. I, I.

• 1:19:50Speaker 03

  Assed up is mine. I call this.

• 1:19:53The Fat Electrician?

  You know what? This is turning into a job interview, actually, um.

• 1:19:56Speaker 04

  What's funny is I'll get people who send me videos that are like.

• 1:19:59The Fat Electrician?

  Uh, me and, me and my friend group, I, and I, I can guarantee you that I can swing this and make this happen. We'll.

• 1:20:36The Fat Electrician?

  Pay for you to go to paramedic school, finish it out.

• 1:20:39Speaker 04

  Ah, I don't know if I would do that.

• 1:20:41The Fat Electrician?

  Then you have to come, you have to move to Texas or fly in here. Twice, for the camera. Twice, back to back.

• 1:20:47Speaker 04

  I don't know, I don't know how many times I've been sitting.

• 1:20:49Speaker 03

  See, we always call it, it's a back to back, we get the guy. It's a wager.

• 1:20:55Speaker 04

  I told you, I could only get so erect.

• 1:20:59The Fat Electrician?

  Well, we'll pay for you to go to paramedic school.

• 1:21:01Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 1:21:01The Fat Electrician?

  You have to come and your new job is exclusively to be gun tubes paramedic. And you just have to be at all the range days working.

• 1:21:09Speaker 04

  I gotta tell you, that would break my heart if I had to just hang out with you guys all the time.

• 1:21:13The Fat Electrician?

  I'm surrounded by people that aren't shoving stuff up their ass.

• 1:21:17Speaker 04

  You know, to be fair, it doesn't happen that often, but you know, when it does, it happens.

• 1:21:21Speaker 03

  Your first one there.

• 1:21:27Speaker 04

  I pushed the other crew out.

• 1:21:29Speaker 03

  He only flies it.

• 1:21:33Speaker 04

  But yeah, and I told my department, I'm like, I'll, I'll, I'll stay volley here until I, until I physically cannot do it anymore. It's, I was telling the guys that, um, when I was growing up, my mom, who's, I don't know where she got this phrase from, it's a Muhammad Ali quote, so I have no idea where she would have even gotten it from. She's not by any, wasn't by any stretch of the imagination of a sports fan or a boxing fan, but above her couch was one of those big fancy signs, you know, like those live, laugh, love signs? This one said, service to others is the rent that we pay for our room here on earth. And that was something that just kind of stuck with me, you know, the kids at school or not the kids, but like the, the teacher at school asking what your favorite quote is, and I'm like, that was my, my quote. So when I finally decided that I wanted to, uh, Do something a little bit bigger than myself. I, I, I figured that was the way to do it.

• 1:22:14Speaker 02

  So it's about the service, not the paycheck, obviously.

• 1:22:17Speaker 04

  A hundred, hundred percent. Yeah. And it's, it's a really cool feeling.

• 1:22:20Speaker 02

  Not a lot of people, not a lot of people that have that.

• 1:22:22Speaker 04

  A lot of time.

• 1:22:23Speaker 03

  You told that story right at the beginning. Exact same quote.

• 1:22:29Speaker 04

  That's exactly how it goes.

• 1:22:30Speaker 03

  Cool. I gotta double check the quote now. I had it pulled up.

• 1:22:34Speaker 02

  I love it. I was like, oh, she had two Muhammad quotes above the couch.

• 1:22:37The Fat Electrician?

  I was like, man, you were the same because I was like, oh, fuck. I'm either really, really drunk.

• 1:22:41Speaker 04

  What's in that Eckes?

• 1:22:44Speaker 03

  I was really worried I got a TBI.

• 1:22:47The Fat Electrician?

  I immediately went to like.

• 1:22:50Speaker 03

  Everyone's looking in horror. You're surrounded by dudes that have been TBI.

• 1:22:54Speaker 04

  What's in this? Ben, that's, that's why I, that's why I stay volley. I guess I definitely don't want to.

• 1:22:59Speaker 02

  I told you this was a hundred milligram fucking T A T drink, right?

• 1:23:03Speaker 04

  You told me not to eat it.

• 1:23:04The Fat Electrician?

  Me, Eli and the rest of the, the other Brandon and Cody have this perpetual nightmare that any moment we're gonna wake up in a fucking mental institution. Next to each other and straight, like.

• 1:23:15Speaker 04

  There it is.

• 1:23:15The Fat Electrician?

  Shit. Like, we, we.

• 1:23:17Speaker 02

  Has all of this been a?

• 1:23:19Speaker 04

  Is all a fever dream?

• 1:23:20The Fat Electrician?

  We did the gang episode and the episode was sponsored by, by Magic Mind and we did the Magic Mind shot. We're like, man, I feel funny. And then we all wake up in the mental institution. When you, when you told the same story.

• 1:23:32Speaker 04

  It ends like an episode of Lost.

• 1:23:33The Fat Electrician?

  When you told the same story back to back in the same episode, I was like, I immediately went to the matrix with like the bricked out windows and the cat walking by. I was like, oh, fuck, this is it.

• 1:23:41Speaker 03

  Agent Smith just like walking on the rainy sidewalk.

• 1:23:45The Fat Electrician?

  Ethan's a six foot four tall guy in scrubs. It tells me I can't do that anymore. I need to calm down before he injects me with something to make me tired. This is horrible.

• 1:23:55Speaker 04

  Why isn't everyone sticking me with stuff?

• 1:23:58Speaker 03

  Show and neighbor nurses. They take care of us.

• 1:24:03Speaker 03

  They're just wheeling us around. I'm just like, big gloves, just like huge syringes, like.

• 1:24:09The Fat Electrician?

  Fucking King Trouts, the warden. That's why he lives upstairs. He's actually just watching us. We think we're letting him live in our house, but actually.

• 1:24:19Speaker 04

  That's what the cameras are for. He's actually just watching you.

• 1:24:21Speaker 03

  Or they're just walking us to different rooms.

• 1:24:24The Fat Electrician?

  Our live shows. You're in Boston now.

• 1:24:29Speaker 03

  One person every time.

• 1:24:31Speaker 04

  Is this Boston? Yeah.

• 1:24:33Speaker 02

  Cody's just in a room by himself in the corner. Hey, everybody.

• 1:24:36Speaker 04

  Hey everybody. Hey everybody.

• 1:24:40Speaker 04

  Nick's just sitting in his in an opposite room.

• 1:24:48The Fat Electrician?

  Just making shit up about World War II and he really doesn't like Karl Marx.

• 1:24:54Speaker 04

  Nick needs the helmet again. Nick needs the helmet again. He smashed from the wall.

• 1:24:58The Fat Electrician?

  You guys laugh. I'm still horrified of this being a reality.

• 1:25:02The Fat Electrician?

  Two and a half years ago, I was an electrician at work.

• 1:25:04Speaker 04

  There it is. You just gotta enjoy the dream before you wake up. That's all. I I guess.

• 1:25:09Speaker 02

  Everyone's had that moment where like, I don't dream a lot, but like, there's been a very, like a handful of times in my life where I've had the sweetest, coolest dream ever. And you wake up and you're just like, fuck, that was awesome.

• 1:25:24Speaker 04

  That was a good one. Can we play that back?

• 1:25:25Speaker 02

  Motherfucker. I can't believe I wish I could just go back asleep and go back into that. And that could be what this is. Just a very long.

• 1:25:32Speaker 03

  Oh, that'd be the worst. I could think of just waking up.

• 1:25:35Speaker 02

  Please let this be real.

• 1:25:38Speaker 03

  Everyone is like, for the audience members, it is understanding, like everyone, like Nick was an electrician. I did from infantry to fucking a lot of manual labor. Weird being Mexican. And roofing and everything else. And while doing that, it was like, hey, I'm going to do videos and tell. I didn't know. I never thought it was like, oh, this is gonna be a career path. And podcasting, I will let you know. Just in anyone has this idea. It's like, well, you like you set out to do podcast. The fuck I did. I was like, I want to do movies. VFX. I want to shoot. I want to write comedy sketches, millions of views, like, and I got that now then. And this is a very much a like.

• 1:26:15Speaker 04

  Afterthought.

• 1:26:16The Fat Electrician?

  This is like the opposite of VFX.

• 1:26:17Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:26:19The Fat Electrician?

  This is no FX.

• 1:26:22Speaker 03

  Fuck, why did that one work?

• 1:26:24The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 1:26:24Speaker 03

  Why? And that but it is pivoting. It's like, hey, it is working. So let's continue down that path.

• 1:26:29The Fat Electrician?

  Do it again. Do it again.

• 1:26:31Speaker 03

  Dude, the amount of blood, sweat and tears you're putting in on the back end while doing the normal job is what people do not.

• 1:26:37Speaker 02

  Appreciate it. Well, yeah.

• 1:26:39Speaker 03

  Everyone, it looks like so much fun, like from Nick to like all you. It's like, oh, they just have fun. Dude, finding out like volunteers like.

• 1:26:46The Fat Electrician?

  Wild.

• 1:26:46Speaker 03

  But it is.

• 1:26:47The Fat Electrician?

  I had no idea.

• 1:26:48Speaker 03

  No.

• 1:26:50Speaker 04

  Yeah, I won't. I can't honestly see myself giving it up. It's just something that aside from the fact that I love the guys in my department, you know, that's just it's a great department. It just feels good, you know, it's something that just genuinely just makes you feel good, you know, it's a great community.

• 1:27:04Speaker 02

  Yeah, well, that's crazy because life's only about money and success.

• 1:27:07Speaker 04

  Yeah, you know.

• 1:27:08Speaker 02

  You should never do anything that actually makes you feel like a human.

• 1:27:10Speaker 04

  You know, why should you?

• 1:27:11Speaker 02

  Thank you, Leon.

• 1:27:12Speaker 03

  That's our next shirt.

• 1:27:13Speaker 02

  Yeah, how dare you.

• 1:27:14Speaker 03

  Yeah, it says by Leon.

• 1:27:15Speaker 04

  Lyrical words.

• 1:27:17Speaker 02

  Hey, this is morally sound and makes me feel good at a soul level, but it's not making me money. Fuck that.

• 1:27:22Speaker 04

  Flip table, walk out, done. Yeah, so sometimes, sometimes you just have to do like the right thing in your head.

• 1:27:28Speaker 02

  Five percent works good for your soul.

• 1:27:29Speaker 04

  That's it. Sometimes you just gotta, it keeps me grounded, you know?

• 1:27:32Speaker 03

  Yeah. It is, it is wild seeing all of it because on the backside it is that the amount of people that was like, ah, it's too saturated, or I can never go. It is, hey, the level of detail of like, I'm speaking like that. Oh, I am testing different stuff and tell it, see it's work. Hey, this, oh, that worked. Now that is what I'm going to do. And that is the key to the success that people miss. It is like, what works? Why did it work? How do I continue and how do I expand on that? And now, oh, success. Also while doing a nine to five a lot of the time and having a family, you're like, I wish I had a nine to five.

• 1:28:09Speaker 02

  I'm always surprised, I spend a lot of time on the internet, as all of you do and most of you watching, I'm sure do. And like, my job for what, almost seven, eight years now has been to like, be the guy that's like, seeing what's going on on the internet, make content. So I feel like pretty plugged in, right? As opposed to like, my wife, who's just very like ephemeral, like not plugged in. So, but to this day still, I'll randomly like, happen upon this account that has like 24 million subscribers or followers and has this insane audience. And I'm like, the second you think that it's like saturated, or there's like, oh, that's already been done. No, no, no. Like, for, for every new person that is like trying to do something or like find an audience.

• 1:28:51Speaker 02

  It is a big fucking world out there. All you need to do is capture like point zero zero two percent of like your country's population to make it into something that's sustainable.

• 1:29:00Speaker 04

  It's true.

• 1:29:01Speaker 02

  So you just have to like put it into perspective and like think about the scale and like I just was doing a video the other week with my wife and there was like the team put together a clip from this like Russian Instagrammer. It was like really funny videos and they were good and he had like twenty three million followers and I'm like dude, I spend my life scouring the internet for content and I've never knew this motherfucker existed. And he's captured a country worth of people like somewhere on the other side of the world. So all that's to say, there's just like, there's always going to be an audience, like whether it's something you're passionate about or you want to like try, like you just have to try things really is what it comes down to.

• 1:29:35Speaker 04

  And you can get into saturated markets. You can get into saturated markets.

• 1:29:38Speaker 02

  I mean, it's proven model that works, right?

• 1:29:40Speaker 04

  Obviously, something, somebody's watching it. And if someone will watch you do whatever, cooking videos, you know, someone will watch somebody else do cooking videos.

• 1:29:47Speaker 02

  Like there's been people that have done history content before, but they weren't fat and abrasive.

• 1:29:52Speaker 04

  Right.

• 1:29:52Speaker 02

  The fat electrician.

• 1:29:53Speaker 04

  Whoa, whoa, whoa, he's not abrasive.

• 1:29:55Speaker 02

  I know, and he's not fat, he's handsome and svelte.

• 1:29:57The Fat Electrician?

  The amount of other history theorists, so like Stephen and Gabby Stayaku, he's been on the podcast, he's fucking great. Check him out, he's awesome. But like, uh, me and him came up on TikTok at like the same time and we both do history, but we have very different personalities and like catch different like vibes from history and tell it a different way. And like the amount of people that'll accuse both ways, like I've been accused of being a knockoff Stayaku and he's been accused of being a knockoff fat electrician. And it's like, oh, I bet you guys don't like each other because you're competing. It's like

• 1:30:28Speaker 04

  No.

• 1:30:29The Fat Electrician?

  Not at all.

• 1:30:29Speaker 04

  For the truth.

• 1:30:30The Fat Electrician?

  By all means, tell the exact same story, slightly different in your own style all day. I'm sure some people will love you and hate me and vice versa. And it's all gonna work out. Like, nobody gives a shit.

• 1:30:41Speaker 02

  Yeah, on that note, like I'll, I'll do it when you're in like commentary, like what's going on in YouTube stuff over the years I've done it. If there's like a trending thing that happens and it's like, all, obviously all the commentary YouTubers like jumping to talk about it. And it's the same idea. It's like, you don't always have to be the first one, like certainly you can build a business model around being quick and that works, or

• 1:31:03Speaker 02

  My business model has always been, I'm just gonna talk about this thing in the way that feels good to me. I'm always late. Like, I'm like the guy that's like, a week after it happens and it's like, kind of out of the news cycle, but like, I'm just old and that's how I operate. But, I always get people in the comments like, "Oh, I saw this so-and-so's video about it, but I was excited to see your take", right? And that's really what it is. It's like, you're just talking about the same thing that everyone knows about, they can watch the news and they can get a take. They just wanna see what you have to say about it, cuz they've kind of built a relationship with you for however long, or even if they, even if it's their first time seeing a video, that could be an opportunity, that could be like the zero-to-one moment where they're like, "Hey, I like the way this guy covered this", versus the three videos I've already watched about it, and now you have a new person that appreciates your shit. It's like-

• 1:31:45The Fat Electrician?

  That's why I love your content. The amount of times I've heard news and been like, "Wow, you know what I really need? I need the opinion of a six-foot-tall blond-haired white guy with blue eyes, with a loving wife and family to tell me exactly what I should feel about it."

• 1:32:00Speaker 04

  Do you find that-

• 1:32:01Speaker 02

  Very reliable, I know.

• 1:32:03The Fat Electrician?

  Thank you. I've always wondered what this opinion would be like if it came from somebody more attractive than me, actually.

• 1:32:09Speaker 02

  You're about to learn how you're supposed to feel about this very divided topic.

• 1:32:14Speaker 03

  He just last week, his Kony 2012 video.

• 1:32:19Speaker 02

  Jesus. I've been going on the Facebook-

• 1:32:23Speaker 03

  He takes his time.

• 1:32:25Speaker 02

  Kony 2012.

• 1:32:27Speaker 04

  You're just- What a fucking- He's working on Nixon right now.

• 1:32:31The Fat Electrician?

  What a poll.

• 1:32:32Speaker 02

  You guys, you guys are never gonna really believe this shit that happened in Africa recently. A decade ago, they're like, "Listen up."

• 1:32:39The Fat Electrician?

  I thought I was pulling deep with Harambe, you tell Kony 2012, holy shit.

• 1:32:46Speaker 03

  I would like you to just drop one next week.

• 1:32:49Speaker 02

  Hey, here's why I don't trust him after- No, that's almost at the point where it should be a history video.

• 1:32:54The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, it's that-

• 1:32:55Speaker 04

  Oh my god.

• 1:32:56The Fat Electrician?

  Fucking awesome.

• 1:32:57Speaker 04

  Do you find that your audience, do you have like, diehard, like, followers that like, actually snitch on other creators, or like, "Listen, man, I don't know if you know this, but somebody's doing your stuff."

• 1:33:06Speaker 02

  Oh yeah, sure.

• 1:33:07Speaker 04

  I get that all the time in my comments, "Hey, look, man." Or like, in their video-

• 1:33:11Speaker 03

  Walmart buy that one out.

• 1:33:13Speaker 02

  Somebody else gave, somebody else gave the medical advice not to shove a shampoo bottle up your-

• 1:33:18Speaker 04

  Yeah, 100%.

• 1:33:19The Fat Electrician?

  They're on to your game.

• 1:33:20Speaker 04

  There's, there's videos that people will be like, they'll hold up objects and just be like, shaking their head, and the whole common thread is, "Yo, this, this person's stealing your stuff, dude, you need to, you need to figure this out."

• 1:33:29Speaker 03

  It was a fan, we gave him a shout out already, but it was the individual who's like, hey, is this, did you sell this design to Walmart or whatever? I was like, what? I was like, that's definitely not walmart.com. That is walmart.com. Oh my God. Put it in the group. I was like, hey, this. And then you have like everything. Nick's like, hold on, don't let me type something out for you guys to tweet. Cody.

• 1:33:55Speaker 03

  And I go, we have the 11th most followed person on Twitter. Let him say this.

• 1:34:01The Fat Electrician?

  And then we all retweet it.

• 1:34:04The Fat Electrician?

  We've been trending on Twitter for like 36 hours.

• 1:34:07Speaker 03

  Oh shit.

• 1:34:08The Fat Electrician?

  On Twitter and like hit searches like Walmart accused of allegations of stealing a shirt used for autism charity.

• 1:34:15Speaker 02

  Oh, they wrote news articles.

• 1:34:17The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, no, like we've been trending for eight, like 36.

• 1:34:20Speaker 02

  Faces allegations over unauthorized t-shirt sales. Several social media users, including notable content creators like Donut Operator and the Fat Electrician. Have accused Walmart of selling a t-shirt design without permission. The design in question was originally used to raise funds for autism research. Oh, Walmart, Walmart, how dare you?

• 1:34:37Speaker 03

  24 hours. That is what.

• 1:34:40Speaker 02

  I was, I was on my flight, I think, when I saw this tweet initially. And while the post expressed strong disapproval, there's a mention that the shirt might be sold through a third party vendor on Walmart's platform. The direct evidence of Walmart's involvement in design theft is not confirmed.

• 1:34:54The Fat Electrician?

  Don't care. You're making my ass on your platform.

• 1:34:55Speaker 02

  I'm confirming right now that it's Walmart.

• 1:34:57Speaker 04

  Lawsuit complete.

• 1:34:58Speaker 02

  Source.

• 1:35:00The Fat Electrician?

  Look, I like is.

• 1:35:06Speaker 02

  The actual, it's literally just copy paste.

• 1:35:07Speaker 03

  Yeah, there's not many born to math with.

• 1:35:13The Fat Electrician?

  I saw a lot of merch, like you could find a ton of bootleg. Any of our merch, you can find bootleg, but it was like, this is the opportunity that I can bully a blue chip stock company into donating millions of dollars to autism research. I'm gonna fucking try.

• 1:35:28Speaker 03

  We never took a dime from that shirt. That is a hundred percent.

• 1:35:33Speaker 03

  Not a good look on them. And then it's like.

• 1:35:39Speaker 02

  So, so does Walmart allow like third-party resellers on their site?

• 1:35:42The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, it's just like Amazon, yeah. So it's like third-party sellers can go on, but Walmart's not like checking for IP and copyright.

• 1:35:48Speaker 02

  Of course not.

• 1:35:49The Fat Electrician?

  It's like, which is, that's bullshit out of the gate.

• 1:35:52Speaker 02

  Using their luggage, like you're...

• 1:35:53The Fat Electrician?

  Right, yeah, 100%. Like, if I let somebody on the Fat Electrician YouTube channel and they went on and said a bunch of like, super racist stuff, like, I would totally...

• 1:36:01Speaker 02

  You're still on a hook for kind of being that.

• 1:36:02The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, like, that's my responsibility, it's my, my, you know what I mean? Like, so they should be responsible for that to some degree, and I'm gonna try to bully them to make them pay a bunch of money towards autism research.

• 1:36:11Speaker 02

  I'm looking for a statement from Walmart right now.

• 1:36:12The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, 100%.

• 1:36:14Speaker 04

  That says a lot about you guys, you know, it didn't go to you guys, it went to charity, that says a lot about you guys.

• 1:36:18The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah. What, what was the total numbers for veterans that we did this year?

• 1:36:22Speaker 03

  We still are waiting, it's like 100, it's over 110,000 if I remember, at minimum.

• 1:36:27The Fat Electrician?

  Last month for veterans charities for that shirt we sold, yeah.

• 1:36:30Speaker 03

  Yeah, just writing, "All you beautiful, amazing community."

• 1:36:34Speaker 04

  Salud.

• 1:36:36Speaker 02

  It's fucking great, dude.

• 1:36:37Speaker 03

  We just get to write those massive checks, which is one of the dopest things.

• 1:36:42The Fat Electrician?

  Well, the funniest thing is when you, cause like you're the guy that actually writes the checks and like picks the charities and everything, we're just, you know, the idiots that come up with the shirt designs and sell them, but like...

• 1:36:52The Fat Electrician?

  But like, just hearing you tell the story of like, all the charities being like, "Oh, what, what do you want in return?" And you're like,

• 1:37:01The Fat Electrician?

  "Help? I, fucking, do your job?" And they're just blown away about it, like...

• 1:37:06Speaker 03

  Yeah, dude, it, dude, and you cannot stress it, it is those phone calls where it is even calling the aut... Charity nonprofits, hold, a lot of y'all get your shit together, you're like, dude, be a level, I was like, "We made 57 million last year." 50 million went towards salaries and marketing.

• 1:37:23The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 1:37:23Speaker 03

  Like, and you're like, "What the..." So finding those really good ones, whether veteran community and/or autistic community.

• 1:37:30The Fat Electrician?

  Have to do the research.

• 1:37:31Speaker 03

  Yeah, but when you're calling them to tell, it's like, "Hey, hey, I'm gonna donate." And they're like, "Thank you." "Oh my god, thank you so much." "Oh, so, fuck yeah." So, uh, where do I go? They're like, "On the website, and it'll be really easy, it's, uh, I'll send you a link, or here, type it in." "Yeah, okay." And they're like, "What are you thinking?" I was like, "I..." For you, I think we're doing fifty K for you guys and like, oh, holy shit.

• 1:37:53Speaker 02

  Let me pass him through to a case manager.

• 1:37:56Speaker 03

  You're meeting the owner of the company. They're calling to like, why? And the level of blown away, because that is one thing they could not rationalize is like, we're just doing it with like, no.

• 1:38:10Speaker 04

  I don't need anything back. This isn't about.

• 1:38:11The Fat Electrician?

  I don't want to be on the board, like fucking take the money, do your job, we're walking away, we're on to the next thing.

• 1:38:16Speaker 03

  And they're just like, but why?

• 1:38:19Speaker 04

  What's the catch?

• 1:38:20Speaker 03

  The level of, yeah, it was mind blowing to see that reaction where everyone was like.

• 1:38:24The Fat Electrician?

  It's honestly kind of scary.

• 1:38:25Speaker 02

  Yeah, I would agree with that.

• 1:38:27The Fat Electrician?

  You don't need any.

• 1:38:28Speaker 02

  Shouldn't be a why, like the purpose of charity should have no why attached to it. Like it's like the definition of doing something charitable.

• 1:38:35Speaker 04

  It's just, it's just a good thing.

• 1:38:37Speaker 02

  For the sake of it being a good thing to do without any sort of getting something out of it or ulterior.

• 1:38:43Speaker 03

  No, and you're telling, I was like, oh man, like our community made this possible. We just want to fucking, we sold shirts, all the profits went to this. Now we get a write a check to y'all.

• 1:38:51Speaker 02

  But I also imagine that kind of speaks to people that they deal with a lot where it's like, hey, we're going to give you this, but also we need that. Like there's probably some transactional, even in the nonprofit communities where it's like, yeah, like we have this money we need to burn and do this. But like, we need you to do this for us, which is, I think just defeats the whole purpose of charitable giving.

• 1:39:09Speaker 04

  Sometimes it's good to just do a good thing, you know, above my mom's couch.

• 1:39:19Speaker 04

  Nice, nice, nice.

• 1:39:23Speaker 03

  Roll the three, my friend. That's a perfect fucking joke.

• 1:39:29The Fat Electrician?

  Oh, man.

• 1:39:37The Fat Electrician?

  I know, like it's, it is. Even if I was on the couch, like. I'd be like, I know an all timer special, my grandfather was very close to him, yeah. That's fucking great.

• 1:39:48The Fat Electrician?

  The only thing that would have made it better is above my mom's couch was this Mike Tyson quote.

• 1:39:55The Fat Electrician?

  Which is weird, my mom didn't even like pigeons, but now Kip.

• 1:39:59Speaker 04

  Playback, playback.

• 1:40:00Speaker 03

  It's, it's spinal.

• 1:40:04Speaker 04

  Obviously, I'm on a much, a much different, for those of you who don't know, I don't know if you can imagine this, but I'm on a moderately smaller level than these guys. For now. And it's, for now. And it's, but it is, it's important to do things like this. The one big thing that I got for a while was like, it's impossible to get, get conversation with me. Like, people jump into your DMs. And by the, by the way, if you want to see some unhinged DMs, the badge five oh two DMs full of phallic objects and fucking dick pics is ridiculous.

• 1:40:36The Fat Electrician?

  The amount of times, like, would this fit in your ass?

• 1:40:38Speaker 04

  Literally, literally.

• 1:40:39The Fat Electrician?

  I do history, the amount of times I get messages like, hey, my uncle has a really cool story, you should cover it. So I can't imagine how many, because, bro, my uncle shoved this up his ass, you should do that.

• 1:40:49Speaker 04

  But like, we do this thing where I, I came up with this little idea where it was just like, okay, so you guys want to have, you guys want to be able to get your message to me, I get it. So, when I was growing up, I'm not doing anything, yeah. When I was growing up, we used to get these, um, cards sent to the house. It was just a really cool thing. We used to hang up cards all over the house and from family and some friends, it was really neat.

• 1:41:08The Fat Electrician?

  Like holiday, birthday?

• 1:41:09Speaker 04

  Exactly, right. Like, holiday, Christmas cards, holiday cards, all those things. And, uh,

• 1:41:12The Fat Electrician?

  They had this quote in it.

• 1:41:13Speaker 04

  And, uh, what, what we did was, I was, after a while, you know, the family gets older, my mom, you know, she's obviously older, and, uh, it just doesn't happen anymore. So I came up with this idea. And I was just like, you know what? I miss getting these cards, I miss hanging them up all over the house. I'm like, you know, so here's what we're gonna do.

• 1:41:29The Fat Electrician?

  Mom, Muhammad Ali wrote you a card.

• 1:41:32Speaker 04

  At this point, she'd believe it. But, uh, I was like, you know, for everyone who sends us here a badge five oh two a Christmas card, I'm gonna make a donation to the food bank that's in the town that I grew up in. I'm like, you know, that just seems like something cool. I think that's a nice thing to do. And I was expecting like five or six cards, whatever. God, you fucked up. Yeah, we ended up getting like 400 cards, which isn't insane, but you know, I was able to make a $400 donation to the local food bank. But the, the mistake was, I said, and if you send us a card, I'm gonna read them out on live.

• 1:42:00Speaker 04

  Does this rule still apply? Yeah, yeah. Where do we?

• 1:42:05Speaker 04

  I mean, we can do that. If you guys want to send a, if you guys want to send batch five oh two a Christmas card, you're absolutely welcome to. Christmas cards in March. It's Christmas cards in March. It'll be nutty. Unsub, hi. Welcome. But we, uh, we do. Fuck him over, please. Yeah, but do it for, for Christmas and I do it for, this, the last one we did was for Easter. So I ended up doing the, the donation for, for the Easter. And, uh, yeah, P O Box seven, seven, five in, uh, Belleville, New Jersey. If you guys want to send one out, we're, we're gonna make a donation. One more time? P O Box, uh, seven, seven, five in Belleville, New Jersey. And how much do you donate every time you get one? Uh, so last time it was a buck, you know, if it gets, if it's more, I'll, I'll donate more. I have no problem. It's, listen, it's, it's all TikTok money. I can't wait for you to be home. Yeah, I don't care.

• 1:42:45The Fat Electrician?

  I just met you and I've said this already, this podcast, but like, your balls are either enormous or you're fucking retarded.

• 1:42:53Speaker 04

  So I just so happen to have enormous balls and.

• 1:42:57The Fat Electrician?

  Both.

• 1:42:58Speaker 04

  And retarded. Yeah. Small brain.

• 1:43:00The Fat Electrician?

  You're just too wholesome for the, I feel like thirty percent of the unsub audience just like ignited into flames.

• 1:43:06Speaker 04

  You know, it's, it's worth, it's worth it. Cause like, I, like, not to put too fine a point on it. I have, I have my career, you know, I, I work hard. And I have the, the money that I need to, to survive and take care of my family, which is. Four hundred thousand cards is my expectation. I want to see him homeless. I'm not, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna lie.

• 1:43:26Speaker 04

  I want to ruin him. If I get an unsub level of cards, the, the dollar level is going to drop. I'm not, I'm not gonna lie. It might turn, it might turn into a nickel a card. You're still having to reform.

• 1:43:36The Fat Electrician?

  This motherfucker is gonna be living in a box.

• 1:43:38Speaker 04

  Yeah, I don't want, I don't want to have to eat stale bologna sandwiches for nine months just to survive.

• 1:43:42The Fat Electrician?

  No, fuck you. By the time unsub gets done with it, you're gonna be living in a box and then Zach is gonna come up, cut one of the walls of your house out to make a sign to hold up above his head.

• 1:43:52Speaker 04

  It's like, I'm, I'm happy to, I'm happy to help out those who, who need the help. But listen, I'm not trying to freaking give, I'm not. My move. You know, like I'm, I'm over here, it's like, I used to have a cushion of eighty nine hundred dollars. Now I'm getting blowjobs for sandwiches. Like, I'm not trying to do this. Yeah. I'm, I, it's. I have my, I have my career. I have my money. I'm comfortable. Tik Tok pays me whatever. Instagram pays me whatever. YouTube pays me nothing yet.

• 1:44:19The Fat Electrician?

  I'm glad you issued that challenge to the internet right before Tik Tok's about to get deleted on January 19.

• 1:44:25Speaker 04

  But if you guys want to get me to 100,000 on, on YouTube, I'll make it super worth it for that.

• 1:44:29Speaker 02

  I just want to hear the call from the post office. It's like, is this Anthony? But yeah, sir, we're gonna have to shut down your P O box. We have 16 mail trucks on here. He's got an affiliate program with USPS for selling stamps.

• 1:44:42Speaker 04

  Which is funny because on threads I roast the post office religiously.

• 1:44:46The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 1:44:47Speaker 02

  Good.

• 1:44:50The Fat Electrician?

  Everyone's a government.

• 1:44:51Speaker 02

  17 people on threads hate the post office now. Thanks to you.

• 1:44:55Speaker 04

  It's 16 now. It's just got banned. Probably.

• 1:44:57Speaker 03

  Going back to just real quick, they, it made me pop in my head because we're gonna have, uh, we've been Chris on or they've been on at this point. We don't know. Um, tomorrow, but it is like you have those individuals like COVID. She went from nobody to 70 million subscribers.

• 1:45:14Speaker 04

  If you guys want to get me to 70 million subscribers.

• 1:45:17Speaker 03

  To Australians, because we didn't know that number to that degree, like Sav, she was the ones like, holy shit. Call me Chris. I was like, oh, cool. And then you're like, holy sh.

• 1:45:28Speaker 04

  I was standing in line and I'm just like, uh, I'm not in line anymore. We're just gonna go, we're just gonna.

• 1:45:34Speaker 03

  Two Australians is watching you like, ah, well.

• 1:45:37Speaker 04

  We're just gonna go ahead.

• 1:45:38Speaker 03

  Two Australians.

• 1:45:39Speaker 02

  The funny part is. I measure my audience in Australia.

• 1:45:42The Fat Electrician?

  The, the funny part about.

• 1:45:43Speaker 02

  I'm like point, I'm like point zero five Australians. Right now I'm working on it. I'm like just Sydney.

• 1:45:49The Fat Electrician?

  The funny, the funny part about, uh, Call Me Chris is she's super cool in person, but like when, when we're talking to like vendors and stuff for arranged it when they're, when Cody and Brandon are talking to vendors and stuff for arranged, they're like, oh, the total subscriber count amongst all the influencers that are gonna be there is like 150 million subscribers. It's like, don't ask the breakdown because fucking a third of it's Call Me Chris.

• 1:46:13Speaker 03

  She is America walking in and big dickin' everybody.

• 1:46:17Speaker 04

  She walked in and I was like, well, I'm not here anymore.

• 1:46:20Speaker 02

  She's a superstar.

• 1:46:21Speaker 04

  Bye, everybody.

• 1:46:23Speaker 02

  Couldn't happen to a better girl, man.

• 1:46:25Speaker 03

  Like just cutting hair and that happened. You're like, damn.

• 1:46:29Speaker 04

  She earned it.

• 1:46:31Speaker 02

  What happened two years?

• 1:46:33Speaker 04

  You know, it's really crazy. I imagine after the first 200 million, you stop counting.

• 1:46:39Speaker 04

  Like 201 million? That's cool.

• 1:46:41Speaker 02

  Yeah, once you go from eight to nine figs, that's probably a lot, a lot different. Now you're just measuring by hundreds of millions.

• 1:46:46Speaker 04

  Yeah, I remember my first million.

• 1:46:49The Fat Electrician?

  She's funny because she, she's been to all the range days, hasn't she?

• 1:46:52Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:46:52The Fat Electrician?

  And the first, the first range day, I don't think she'd ever fired a gun. It was pretty uncomfortable.

• 1:46:56Speaker 02

  For that.

• 1:46:57The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 1:46:57Speaker 02

  And now she's like, put it on the technical.

• 1:47:05Speaker 02

  Yep, yep.

• 1:47:06Speaker 03

  Her and Caleb were just like.

• 1:47:08Speaker 04

  Two peas in a pod. She's like, I'm gonna shoot this, but can I, can I shoot this next? I was like, oh, yeah, yeah, get after it.

• 1:47:18The Fat Electrician?

  We had a, so like, uh, when you, when you reach a certain point on, uh, YouTube, you get, uh, like a rep, like a direct contact with YouTube. Basically just trying to keep you out of trouble, you know, like at a certain point, you're making YouTube money and just behooves everybody involved to be like, hey, here's, here's the lines, try to color inside of them. And if you step out, we'll let you know exactly what you did. So like YouTube does a really good job at.

• 1:47:41Speaker 04

  Very helpful.

• 1:47:42The Fat Electrician?

  Kind of helping you out and, uh.

• 1:47:43Speaker 02

  Shout out to that team.

• 1:47:44The Fat Electrician?

  We had a, we had our, some of our YouTube reps show up today, just, you know, hanging out, but they brought out some other YouTube executives and they were all great. But the, the higher ranking YouTube executives were like born, bred, raised in California, never shot a gun, never fired a gun, never been around a gun. And I went out there with, you know, our, our reps are like army guys. They're kind of like the, I don't want to say controlled opposition, but like definitely the, hey, I was in the military. I understand. Here's what's actually safe.

• 1:48:14Speaker 02

  Yeah, they're like advocates inside the mothership for us, basically.

• 1:48:20Speaker 04

  I don't know if, if you guys don't know this, gun people are the best people. They are the best people in the world. I've grown up around them. I've worked at, gun people are the best people.

• 1:48:27The Fat Electrician?

  I know. Look at the world wars, how they worked out. Anyways, uh, so. Uh, we get these like high level YouTube executives that are like, we've never fired a gun. We're not sure we want to. I was like, I know exactly where I'm taking you. Took them straight over to, uh, Brandon's boys and like Brandon's boys are straight autistic. You could give them any gun that's ever been manufactured at any point and they can tell you, I'm not shitting you. Probably the year it was made, the factory it came out of and what country, like the country of origin, all of it. And I was like, hey.

• 1:48:58Speaker 03

  Raiden loves them.

• 1:48:59The Fat Electrician?

  Hook these, hook these guys up with the MP40.

• 1:49:02Speaker 04

  Let them live.

• 1:49:02The Fat Electrician?

  The, the best machine gun on the planet. Just nine mil, it's, it's full auto.

• 1:49:08Speaker 04

  It's buttery smooth though.

• 1:49:09The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah. Like you can pull the trigger on a semi auto fast, it's and like just watching, watching them go, okay, what, what do I have to do? Okay. We'll put, put the buttstock in your shoulder, hold the gun like this. Don't put your finger where the bolt reciprocates. Okay. And then just pull the trigger and then

• 1:49:28The Fat Electrician?

  and then they just fucking mag dump and like, this is a lot of fun. And I was like, yes.

• 1:49:33Speaker 04

  Ladies and gentlemen, we got them.

• 1:49:37Speaker 04

  We understand each other.

• 1:49:40Speaker 04

  It really is just the best fun. Like I've, I've shot guns thousands of times. I've never shot full auto. You know, so I walked in and I

• 1:49:47The Fat Electrician?

  Classic New Jersey.

• 1:49:48Speaker 04

  Yeah, exactly. If you don't know, New Jersey loves gun owners. They, they love us.

• 1:49:54Speaker 03

  You have a lot of freedoms.

• 1:49:56Speaker 04

  All the freedoms. In fact, now they let us have them, which is great. So, uh, but yeah, it's like you, you, you go there and I'm like, yeah, listen, I've never, I've never shot full auto. And listen, I, I spent time with these guys. It was the guys from over, uh, was it Denver, um,

• 1:50:11The Fat Electrician?

  Denver Bullets.

• 1:50:13Speaker 04

  Hanging out with these guys and they're like, hey, I remember you from yesterday. Step in, have you ever shot full auto? No, I've never, never shot full auto. Okay. Check this out. Here's what we're going to do. We're going to do it like this. And just, you just go through the motions.

• 1:50:24Speaker 03

  What'd you shoot?

• 1:50:25Speaker 04

  Oh, I shot everything. I shot that entire table.

• 1:50:27Speaker 03

  What was the finest?

• 1:50:29Speaker 04

  So I'd probably say the most fun is probably the Vector only because I genuinely just always wanted to rip one.

• 1:50:33Speaker 03

  They shoot kinda quick.

• 1:50:35Speaker 04

  They shoot real fast. Those, the second you pull the trigger, that mag is empty. And it's, it is, and it's, it's not-

• 1:50:42Speaker 03

  Cyclone range is, again, when you say cyclone range, it makes a huge difference on like also being manageable, like MP40 and everything. Super low cyclone range. You're like, even your Tommy guns are about like 600 to maybe 800 max, but it's like, dun dun dun dun dun. So you can walk, walk it in.

• 1:50:59Speaker 04

  You can walk it in a little bit.

• 1:50:59Speaker 03

  Then you hit like 1800 rounds per minute cyclone range and it is-

• 1:51:04Speaker 04

  It's walking you.

• 1:51:04Speaker 03

  Yeah. Same round, 45, it's like, burn!

• 1:51:08Speaker 04

  Yeah, I'm sitting there and I'm just like, yeah, he's like, you gotta get behind this one. I was like, alright, no problem. He's like, no, more behind it. I'm like,

• 1:51:14Speaker 03

  A little bit of lean.

• 1:51:15Speaker 04

  What are you talking about? And I'm, I'm like, deep into my lean, like, I'm like, in it. And, uh,

• 1:51:20Speaker 03

  45 down, down, dog.

• 1:51:24Speaker 04

  The gun was holding him up. It screwed me up. I was leaning forward, I was like, rrrr. I was like, oh, okay, so we're just handing up now? Okay, that's cool. We're gonna just do that.

• 1:51:31Speaker 02

  Shout out to the Denver Bullets guy too, because I, I shot some really fun guns at that station today too. And there was a bunch of people, you could tell like the, there's obviously like a lot of different skill levels, people that are super familiar with these weapons and people that are like kind of getting it for the first time. So it's really fun to see all of that come to fruition. But, the guy who was kinda, he was running the, the show there, um, I don't know his name, but, you get some of the newer people, like they get a whole lot on their hands.

• 1:51:55Speaker 03

  Mr. John Denver Bullets.

• 1:51:56Speaker 02

  Mr. John Denver Bullets.

• 1:51:57Speaker 03

  I think that was his name.

• 1:51:58Speaker 02

  You'd have like, there'd be like a person, and people were like, you know, you have a full auto, you have an automatic machine gun in your hand, they're just like,

• 1:52:06Speaker 02

  you got to the point, he's like, these are machine guns, we don't burst fire. He's like, you dump these mags, you shoot it like a machine gun. I was like, I like this motherfucker, right?

• 1:52:14Speaker 04

  He's like, he looked at me and he goes out-

• 1:52:16Speaker 02

  Lean into it and shoot the whole mag!

• 1:52:19Speaker 04

  Yeah, I creeped, I creeped a couple when I first won.

• 1:52:23Speaker 04

  He's like, oh, cool. I thought you were like a man yesterday. Turns out you just, this is how you do this. Yeah. Gotcha.

• 1:52:32The Fat Electrician?

  The funny thing is like all the people that have like never shot a gun before and then they're showing up to range day with like literally every rare gun from Brandon's collection from World War II to like mini guns mounted on Teslas and shit. And it's like, you guys are going from like zero to a hundred. Like you've never played football and now you're starting in the Super Bowl. Is what this amounts to.

• 1:52:55Speaker 04

  Pretty much.

• 1:52:56The Fat Electrician?

  They don't really grasp it. And when one of the YouTube reps, she like mag dumped and she like, oh my God, that was a lot of fun. I go, yeah, it was like $30 in ammo. And she's like, starts laughing. You're really funny. That wasn't a joke.

• 1:53:08Speaker 04

  No, you're not joking.

• 1:53:10Speaker 03

  That's a good gun. Like it is like, oh. 150 rounds. Okay, that is.

• 1:53:17Speaker 03

  $300 and you're like.

• 1:53:19Speaker 02

  Also, also it's illegal to do that in your state.

• 1:53:23Speaker 04

  Yeah, I was walking, I was walking by the, the first bar. I'm like all the, you know, all the way when you first walk in, and you just hear that.

• 1:53:31Speaker 03

  The minigun.

• 1:53:33Speaker 04

  Did an A10 just fly by? Like, what the hell was that? Yeah, it's the minigun on the other side.

• 1:53:37The Fat Electrician?

  The minigun going off is like, I can take my.

• 1:53:39Speaker 02

  Weird beast rumble, dude.

• 1:53:40The Fat Electrician?

  I can take my ear pro out and have a conversation 50 yards away from the firing line now and the minigun goes off. I'm like, fuck.

• 1:53:47Speaker 04

  Yeah, I messed up. I should have not done that.

• 1:53:50Speaker 03

  Watching, we fired those blanks and then we tried to fire them. So there's, we have the handheld one. Like, you have a backpack. Yeah. So we have videos of us shooting blanks. Blanks don't have that recoil. But it's really like breaks. She's like. And it is like, just, you just stand on a pile. And then when we were trying to do the, we tried seven, six, two variant of a minigun, like handheld. And I have videos of trying this.

• 1:54:20Speaker 04

  Just launch yourself across the world.

• 1:54:22Speaker 03

  No, dude, it is more guns go like this, blah, blah, blah. Mini guns go downwards and right. So we're like, okay, everyone right. And we were all lighting up here. I knew what I was like, actually, behind me. And it was like, and we stopped right here. Cause it was like immediately. It's just down, but it was still like instantly 30 rounds of.

• 1:54:44The Fat Electrician?

  In one in one touch.

• 1:54:46Speaker 03

  Yeah. And then like the recoil that was like, oh yeah, we can't hold cake. We cannot do full auto recoil on that.

• 1:54:54The Fat Electrician?

  Mica, like I think my favorite like short or clip of him. Have you seen the video when they were doing?

• 1:55:00Speaker 03

  Eight six.

• 1:55:01The Fat Electrician?

  Um, no, not eight six. It was the new Sig squad automatic firing weapon was a.

• 1:55:06Speaker 03

  The walking, the new, the new L and G. And this is, this is three, three, eight and not Lupo, but a three, three, eight, uh, Norma. This is a very large.

• 1:55:18Speaker 02

  I don't even know what that is.

• 1:55:19Speaker 03

  This is a, this is a little smaller than this. Cat, there, wow, big ass bullet, like three, three, eight, Norma is goddamn terrifying, but.

• 1:55:30The Fat Electrician?

  This, I mean, the, the entire concept behind this machine gun was like, the enemy is probably wearing body armor, but we don't care.

• 1:55:37Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah.

• 1:55:38The Fat Electrician?

  Like, that was the whole concept, but like, there's this video of, I'm assuming some SF guy or something that, um, Grandpa was able to get a hold of. And I mean, this dude looks like a refrigerator with ears, just a fucking unit of a man wearing body armor. And it's like, you know, somebody's huge when like they're wearing body armor and they make the body armor. So I was like, oh, you're fucking like body armor. It looks.

• 1:56:03Speaker 02

  I can see your pecs through the planks, bro.

• 1:56:09The Fat Electrician?

  The body armor is for my heart. I have a heart plate, not a chest plate, like.

• 1:56:13Speaker 03

  He's like a brawl.

• 1:56:15The Fat Electrician?

  But.

• 1:56:16Speaker 03

  It's the reset together.

• 1:56:20The Fat Electrician?

  Like, I love Mica, but like, he definitely kind of looks like a hipster, you know, like a lot of, a lot of, like intimidating dude in persona, but like, he's a bigger guy, like he's taller than me and he's probably just as broad. Like he's a big dude. And he's like firing and trying to walk forward while, while firing and he can't do it. And he's like, give me another try, give me another try. And he tries to get, he's like, I physically can't step forward while firing this machine gun in this army, dude. He's like, give me that fucking shit. Just marching with this machine gun mag dumping is fucking horrifying.

• 1:56:55Speaker 03

  And a good, very, very large rounds to watch that dude like walk forward and shoot.

• 1:57:02The Fat Electrician?

  Like, like.

• 1:57:03Speaker 04

  Like walking to the.

• 1:57:05Speaker 02

  Oh, shoulder mount, okay. You're just like, okay, normal shoulder, yeah.

• 1:57:08The Fat Electrician?

  Not like hip firing, like shoulder mounted, aiming and firing is like that dude is fucking horrifying. Oh, my favorite clip.

• 1:57:18Speaker 03

  Hate being thrown down that range.

• 1:57:23Speaker 03

  So much hate, you're like, ooh, God.

• 1:57:25Speaker 04

  Like, I'm thinking about it.

• 1:57:27Speaker 03

  This is a drum, this is a drum, again, I cannot like.

• 1:57:30Speaker 02

  It's an LMG, so it's got how many rounds, like?

• 1:57:33Speaker 03

  Fucking hundred rounds.

• 1:57:35Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:57:36Speaker 04

  Hundred round, that's just heavy, like.

• 1:57:39Speaker 02

  Huge, yeah.

• 1:57:40Speaker 03

  Like, that, this, oh yeah, it's the eight six. Like, that's a big boy round, and that's tiny compared to a three, three, eight, I get it, yeah.

• 1:57:49Speaker 04

  Like, I shoulder mounted the, uh, the fifty cal and sent around, and I was like, boof, and I did, I did that at the range that I worked at, so I'm like, I gotta know what to expect. And then, doof, you know, it goes off, and you're like, ha, yeah, you know, it feels good, I can't imagine freaking trying to walk with it, you kidding me?

• 1:58:02The Fat Electrician?

  Well, one is fine, multiple back to back to back to back, it's like, alright.

• 1:58:06Speaker 04

  What kind of rate does this thing have?

• 1:58:08Speaker 02

  Kind of like exponentially goes on itself.

• 1:58:10The Fat Electrician?

  I mean, it's for suppressing fire, it's got enough of a rate to convince people to stay the fuck down, so.

• 1:58:16Speaker 04

  It's got enough to make, uh, standing up just a general bad idea.

• 1:58:20The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, I mean, it's horrifying.

• 1:58:21Speaker 04

  You probably don't want to do that.

• 1:58:22Speaker 02

  And who made, who, who made the gun, you said?

• 1:58:24The Fat Electrician?

  Uh, this is, it was, uh, it was the new SIG, uh, cause SIG basically got all the contracts to do the new army pistols, the new rifle, and the new LMG, the light machine gun.

• 1:58:36Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:58:36The Fat Electrician?

  So this is what was supposed to replace the saw.

• 1:58:39Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:58:39The Fat Electrician?

  So, the saw shoots five, five, six, a normal like AR fifteen, um, M four round, and the bigger rounds they're moving to are basically designed for, um, near peer combat, essentially they're planning to fight enemies that have body armor.

• 1:58:54Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:58:54The Fat Electrician?

  Is more or less suggestive of it, so I mean, it was impressive, I mean, it would be, I mean, it would be rough to walk forward while aiming with a saw, I can't imagine doing it with the new fucking LMG caliber.

• 1:59:07Speaker 04

  That's nuts. Like that's, that's an insane amount of power. That's an insane amount of power to be the person trying to walk it like, get that. I don't have that kind of strength, I mean, I'm too old for that.

• 1:59:16Speaker 03

  Dumping bullets. This guy, this still, this is, having a subsonic AP round is the most ridiculous thing I've ever.

• 1:59:23The Fat Electrician?

  I love it.

• 1:59:24Speaker 04

  Is that what that is?

• 1:59:25Speaker 03

  They're making subsonic AP rounds. That means it's traveling, usually when you hear five sevens, look, it can go through body armor. It is because it is reaching supersonic speed at like twenty seven, twenty seven hundred feet per second. And you're like, okay, cooking. They're like, no, we, we found a way around it and it's slow, quiet.

• 1:59:45The Fat Electrician?

  Kevin's such a psychopath.

• 1:59:46Speaker 04

  That'll pierce Mike's bra.

• 1:59:48The Fat Electrician?

  Killing people with body armor is cool, but have you tried to do it quietly?

• 1:59:53Speaker 04

  The only sound you hear is the armor shredding.

• 1:59:56Speaker 03

  Oh, like Dave gets it. Cause Dave's like, huh, that's subsonic AP rounds. What?

• 2:00:00The Fat Electrician?

  Dave, have you ever been broken down how six point eight blackout works?

• 2:00:04Speaker 03

  Eight point six.

• 2:00:05The Fat Electrician?

  Eight point six, sorry. The bigger of the two.

• 2:00:07Speaker 05

  I'm just trying to think, is there another round other than that one Russian round, like SP five, SP six, that was like subsonic armor penetrating?

• 2:00:14Speaker 03

  They've never had.

• 2:00:15The Fat Electrician?

  No, it's never had it. Q invented it. So like that, that round.

• 2:00:19Speaker 03

  Yeah. That's not the AP round.

• 2:00:21The Fat Electrician?

  So this is, this is the bullet, what it does on impact.

• 2:00:25Speaker 04

  It looks destructive.

• 2:00:26The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah. Heh, stop.

• 2:00:28Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 2:00:28The Fat Electrician?

  Okay.

• 2:00:29Speaker 04

  Yeah, no problem. I can see how that might, you know, in the long run be an issue.

• 2:00:33The Fat Electrician?

  Um, so like K- Kevin, Q, his guys are out there like hunting big, like water buffaloes and shit with a subsonic round, which is insane.

• 2:00:41Speaker 04

  Side note, for the pepper box. Tap, tap and then see you later. Like it's.

• 2:00:44The Fat Electrician?

  Uh, no, tap.

• 2:00:45Speaker 04

  Just one tap.

• 2:00:46Speaker 03

  This is for pepper box. Hey, uh, people that are on the YouTube, on the pepper box, you get some really cool stuff on the pepper box side. Like we're working with Q now and they're giving us every quarter to give away a boombox and whatever Q weapon we want for the pepper box. I feel like as, as long as you're a member, you just entered for a free Q gun, which they're not cheap.

• 2:01:08The Fat Electrician?

  Oh, well, thank you. I, I talked with, uh, Jake and I'm, I don't know that this is a hundred percent sure yet, but I think the concept that we're going with for how we're giving away the. Guns is you automatically get one entry if you're a Pepperbox member. But for every month that you're consecutively a Pepperbox member, you get an additional entry. Yeah. So like if we, if we, if we do this for two years and you've been here since the beginning, you automatically get 24 entries. So like it's kind of an incentive to just, you know, like stick around, hang out. You're going to get more entries to win these guns and it's going to be awesome.

• 2:01:39Speaker 04

  I actually prepaid for 11 years.

• 2:01:41Speaker 02

  I've been part of Pepperbox since 2010.

• 2:01:45The Fat Electrician?

  The crazy part with a Q gun, if you paid for Pepperbox for 11 years and you won a Q gun, you'd still come out net positive.

• 2:01:55Speaker 03

  That's they're not.

• 2:01:57The Fat Electrician?

  Not an exaggeration.

• 2:01:58Speaker 03

  No. They're so fucking good. And like Kevin himself, he had such a good time and he's like, dude, and he's like, here, we'll do this. I was like, oh, okay, homie. I was like, well.

• 2:02:11Speaker 03

  Love you, but like, thank you so much.

• 2:02:13Speaker 04

  It's wild how fast guns get expensive. It's, it's phenomenal.

• 2:02:16Speaker 03

  Those are starting at $4,400.

• 2:02:18The Fat Electrician?

  The Atlanta, the Atlanta airport.

• 2:02:20Speaker 03

  Yeah, it is the base model.

• 2:02:22The Fat Electrician?

  The Atlanta airport terrified me. I was like, okay, this is definitely a simulation.

• 2:02:25Speaker 04

  That's a terrifying airport.

• 2:02:27The Fat Electrician?

  We're at the, we're at the Atlanta airport, like hungover.

• 2:02:30Speaker 04

  Did you take the train?

• 2:02:31The Fat Electrician?

  From the show, we were flying from Atlanta to Boston and we're, we got through security. Like we've had issues with security the entire time. Cause like Brandon's getting pulled, Brandon's getting pulled to the side because he's got too much metal in his bag because of all the fucking war medals. I'm getting in trouble because I can't raise my arm above my head for the scanner. Cause I had surgery. Like it's a fucking nightmare. Eli's got. Gigantic toys that are Berserker collectibles and he's not letting security open them because they'll ruin the resale value. Like horrible shit.

• 2:03:01Speaker 03

  That is a good.

• 2:03:04Speaker 03

  Like pass it through like, okay. Okay, sir, we're going to cut. I was like, the you are. I was like, no, no, no, no.

• 2:03:09Speaker 04

  You don't touch nothing.

• 2:03:10Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:03:13Speaker 03

  Through the fucking x-ray machine. They're like, sir, we're cutting in as like, you're giving me a lot of fucking money.

• 2:03:19Speaker 04

  I dare you.

• 2:03:21Speaker 03

  You're not cutting that. What do you mean? I was like, that devalues that immediately. Sir, I was like.

• 2:03:27Speaker 04

  Do not cut the tape. Do not look at the tape. Touch.

• 2:03:30Speaker 03

  Dude, it was the whole thing. But go on.

• 2:03:32The Fat Electrician?

  So like we're just like, we get through that and we're sitting at the bar waiting for our flight to, you know, show up. Cause everything was kind of delayed because it was like snowing on the east coast at that point in time. And we're sitting there and we're like, we're drinking and we're like.

• 2:03:46Speaker 03

  Story of our lives.

• 2:03:48The Fat Electrician?

  I remember looking at somebody walking by and I was like, man, that guy looks like Kevin. And they're like, yeah, that guy does look like Kevin is like.

• 2:03:56The Fat Electrician?

  That guy's wearing an aim point shirt. Oh shit, that's Kevin. Like we just ran into Kevin from Q in the airport randomly.

• 2:04:03Speaker 04

  In Baltimore randomly?

• 2:04:04The Fat Electrician?

  Uh, in Atlanta.

• 2:04:07The Fat Electrician?

  He was on our same flight.

• 2:04:09Speaker 04

  To Boston.

• 2:04:09The Fat Electrician?

  And we were all sitting next to each other on the flight, drinking the entire time. I was like, there's no way this.

• 2:04:14Speaker 03

  Yeah, I was gonna say. From Africa. He literally just landed in Africa.

• 2:04:19Speaker 04

  Also, I'm next to you guys as well.

• 2:04:21Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:04:21Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 2:04:22The Fat Electrician?

  A hundred percent.

• 2:04:22Speaker 03

  Oh, a hundred percent. We were all.

• 2:04:24Speaker 04

  Row seventeen A, B, and C.

• 2:04:27Speaker 03

  Dude, Nick walks around the cop, angry cop stands up and he's like, oh my God, are you the bad electrician? You are the.

• 2:04:35The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, it was super funny until two random people from the plane asked for pictures.

• 2:04:40Speaker 03

  Yeah. My favorite one, I'm sitting next to Nick and a dude goes like this, can I get a picture? And he's like, yeah. And he goes like, he ends up like, yeah, they love it when you just take a picture of them.

• 2:04:53The Fat Electrician?

  I unbuckled my belt to like stand up and get a picture with him. He's like, no, no, I just wanted a picture of you. I was like, that's not happening.

• 2:05:05The Fat Electrician?

  I was just sitting there laughing.

• 2:05:07Speaker 03

  I was dying. I was like, take a picture with him. I was like, it looks way better to your friends. What did you say? I met them?

• 2:05:13Speaker 04

  You just standing there like on a plane is just like. Thanks, man. Send this to my friend. It was nice. It was good that he unbuckled his belt, but he unzipped his fly. So it was a little strange.

• 2:05:23Speaker 03

  I can't quite get guy wanted this.

• 2:05:27The Fat Electrician?

  So I was, I was like the primary push, I think, to get business class for the flights. And I can tell you the exact moment I did it. Cause like Brandon and Cody refused to board a plane until they're like paging you. Like until they're saying your fucking name over the loudspeakers, they're not leaving the bar. Last boarding call. Yeah, like legit, a hundred percent. That's those two to a T. And I'm just like, I'm along for the fucking ride. You know what I mean? So we're drinking and so by the time we were flying Southwest on our first tour and I like Southwest, there's no seating assignments, right? So we're the last ones to board and it's a sold out flight. So there's four seats left for the four fucking hosts.

• 2:06:04The Fat Electrician?

  And it's me, Brandon, Cody and Eli, three normal sized humans, me in a sleeveless shirt with a lot of body hair going on, 250 fucking pounds, and I'm the first one in line. Then every seat available is obviously the middle seat, you know? Of course. And I just, I scan and I pick the, the one with the two smallest women just to have the most. Yeah, exactly. I was like, excuse me, ma'am, can I sit in between you? And they're like really nice. Oh yeah, sure, possibly. And Cody very loudly that the whole plane could hear it goes, haha, you gotta sit next to the fat fuck.

• 2:06:45Speaker 04

  Oh Cody, you are just the height of too much.

• 2:06:47The Fat Electrician?

  Oh my God.

• 2:06:49Speaker 03

  That's when I sat next to him, Tim, this year.

• 2:06:52The Fat Electrician?

  Oh no, that was also terrible. Was that the one? Yes.

• 2:06:57Speaker 03

  I managed to sit next to like the fucking, the veteran heroes that have never done anything, but they, they have the leather shirt on.

• 2:07:08The Fat Electrician?

  I'm sitting on the right side of the plane in between two smaller women and he is one row back on the left side of the plane in between two large, large men that are well past their prime, no offense. And Eli, I'm like overhearing this conversation because they're having it volume 10 for no fucking reason.

• 2:07:32Speaker 03

  These two, and then the guy across the seat.

• 2:07:36The Fat Electrician?

  I get to listen to, I get to sit there and I'm like looking over the plane like this for, it was a 45 minute flight. I was like this for 37 minutes of it. Laughing my ass off as Eli's got his hood up and his headphones on and there's three dudes having a very vivid conversation of how they know how they know how to gut a man alive with a fucking pocket knife and a fishing lure and Eli-

• 2:08:01Speaker 02

  How many times did the Marines tell, teach him?

• 2:08:03The Fat Electrician?

  I don't even know. He knows how to, he knows how to cut a man from stem to stern with a pocket knife and I know how to fuck, this dude's got a-

• 2:08:11Speaker 03

  Fifteen different ways and he stood up with his leather vest, cut off, sleeveless. He's like, "Bader, yeah."

• 2:08:19The Fat Electrician?

  Eli's sitting over here in between of just like, "Oh my God, with a purple heart, somebody that's been shot in a fight, a fight."

• 2:08:26Speaker 04

  I would be inconsolable, inconsolable.

• 2:08:29Speaker 03

  Oh my God, I wouldn't commit war crimes right now.

• 2:08:34Speaker 04

  It's never a war crime the first time.

• 2:08:37Speaker 03

  I was, I was just, dude, the stem to steer, I was like- And I'm looking at him, he's like-

• 2:08:44Speaker 03

  I see him.

• 2:08:46Speaker 03

  I was just like, "I hate my fucking life right now." Like, "Why next to me?"

• 2:08:52Speaker 04

  Who'd have thought that day would have ended like this?

• 2:08:55Speaker 02

  You get to the point, you've heard the story four times and then you're like, "Can you tell me about that time that you cut someone with a fishing knife, the steer?" "Oh, I'd love to." And then you go back into the story again, like, "Oh."

• 2:09:05The Fat Electrician?

  So there was Muhammad Ali.

• 2:09:13Speaker 04

  Punch me in the face, three times.

• 2:09:15The Fat Electrician?

  Next time you come on, why don't you just go ahead and bring that picture with us?

• 2:09:19Speaker 04

  I might be able to find it, honestly.

• 2:09:21The Fat Electrician?

  Okay, you let me know, we'll hang it up, but-

• 2:09:23Speaker 04

  I'm happily doing it.

• 2:09:24The Fat Electrician?

  Uh, we've been at it for two hours. We also have a range, range day, party, after-party to attend. So, uh, we better go get to that, oh, it's right now. We gotta drink even more.
