  Hollywood stories, how many kids in that basement?

• 0:52Speaker 07

• 1:35Speaker 04

  We just drank a lot before this.

• 1:36Speaker 03

  No, never.

• 1:38Speaker 04

  We're professionals.

• 1:39Speaker 03

  Yeah, we totally didn't just film the demo leaving episode right before this. We did a shot, no big deal.

• 1:46The Fat Electrician?

  Drink six beers and do a shot about it.

• 1:49Speaker 04

  I know, I was like, oh, this is gonna be a fun one. This is a godspeed for both of you. We're gonna be passed out halfway through the episode.

• 1:56The Fat Electrician?

  How do you guys feel about Karl Marx? No, I'm just kidding.

• 1:59Speaker 03

  No, seriously, A.J. and Tyler, what are you guys doing in town, man?

• 2:02Speaker 04

  Oh, wait, you have to, did you open, Steven?

• 2:04The Fat Electrician?

  Yes.

• 2:04Speaker 03

  Oh, you just opened it.

• 2:05The Fat Electrician?

  Five seconds ago.

• 2:06Speaker 04

  Did you say all our names?

• 2:07The Fat Electrician?

  No, it's a TBI, for sure.

• 2:09Speaker 04

  He said all our names.

• 2:10The Fat Electrician?

  Hold on, I'm gonna put a second Purple Heart on your license plate.

• 2:14Speaker 04

  That's gone already. I was like, Cody's still gonna do the introduction. It's like Eli's brain's like a Etch A Sketch.

• 2:21Speaker 05

  It's like the Mandela effect.

• 2:23Speaker 04

  It was the round. He did the whole thing. He did everything.

• 2:26Speaker 05

  It's like, like, talking to Eli is like watching the movie Memento.

• 2:31Speaker 04

  It was funny because I remember standing there, wow. Cody nailed that intro.

• 2:35Speaker 05

  That was a good intro. Cody's intro is done. Yeah, tattoo that. Cody's intro is done. I just wrote the note for it.

• 2:44Speaker 05

  Can you remember, remember we opened the cans, right? When I did my opener? Yeah, cans are open.

• 2:48The Fat Electrician?

  Remember that time we all silently agreed to gaslight Eli into thinking we've done the intro? But we actually didn't.

• 2:54Speaker 05

  That was a good time.

• 2:55Speaker 04

  Go ahead. Okay. Cody, Cody, you did the intro. Oh, see now.

• 2:58Speaker 05

  Hi, everyone. Welcome.

• 3:03Speaker 04

  Dude, I didn't know. No, you're a hundred percent in the realm of possibility. We did the intro.

• 3:08Speaker 05

  Yeah, join the fucking good. You guys should definitely, you like literally just got, gaslit him that you were gaslighting him. Yeah, join the military.

• 3:19Speaker 06

  Oh, honey, you love being gaslit.

• 3:23Speaker 04

  So glad you can't get a piece of a purple heart from, from TBI, which a hundred percent should be a thing.

• 3:30Speaker 05

  Not, not yet.

• 3:30Speaker 06

  Is that still a thing?

• 3:32Speaker 05

  They were talking about it for a while. I don't, I don't, I don't know if they did that. They were, they were talking about it for a while.

• 3:37The Fat Electrician?

  It was on the Friday brought that up. He's like, why don't they give purple hearts for that? I was like, that is actually a really.

• 3:43Speaker 05

  I'll, I'll tell you why they don't because everyone would get one. You'd come out and be like, I don't remember anything. They're like, well, purple heart.

• 3:52Speaker 06

  I mean, to be fair, to be fair, that's like World War II. They're like, man, so many people are getting shot. We need to like change the criteria for purple hearts. Cause everybody would have one.

• 4:01Speaker 05

  They're like, uh, dude, shot twice.

• 4:05Speaker 06

  It's like, well, you still got hurt. That still counts. I feel like.

• 4:08Speaker 05

  Exactly.

• 4:09Speaker 04

  Phew. Okay. So we have Tyler's back. Our boy Tyler, the fucking reigning king of the top episodes on some.

• 4:16Speaker 05

  That's shocking to me. What'd you guys film to have the, the reigning episode? What'd you guys do the first time?

• 4:22Speaker 04

  Oh, Tyler casually was like, you guys ever seen a CQB AT4? And we're, uh, what?

• 4:29Speaker 05

  It's like thermobaric RPGs or whatever you guys.

• 4:32Speaker 04

  Yeah, that's right.

• 4:32Speaker 05

  That was cool as shit.

• 4:33Speaker 04

  Thermobaric AT4s and Tyler was like, well, you didn't have one. It's like, yes. Yeah, that's why our face is like.

• 4:39Speaker 05

  That's not the technical term. That was our joke term for it was the CQB AT4, which is actually a really cool design. It's got a water, a thing of water in the back. So it basically

• 4:53Speaker 05

  goes off and the counter charge blows back water. It's a sweet design.

• 4:57Speaker 06

  That's pretty fucking neat.

• 4:58Speaker 04

  Every veteran Bravo has used one.

• 5:01Speaker 06

  I forget the short.

• 5:03The Fat Electrician?

  The shock on his face when a medic from the National Guard never got given a CQB AT4.

• 5:13Speaker 06

  No, I'll tell you, I'll tell you exactly why that episode did well. It was because he put the title, military secrets? Question mark, question. That's where it came from.

• 5:24Speaker 05

  With the Delta logo.

• 5:25Speaker 06

  Yeah, with the Delta logo. So 80% of the views are from China.

• 5:33The Fat Electrician?

  Oh my God, the Delta guy gonna spill all their secrets.

• 5:37Speaker 05

  You guys seen any of those fucking [BLEEP] at SHOT Show at all?

• 5:41The Fat Electrician?

  Dude, every year. It blows me away that's even allowed.

• 5:45Speaker 05

  What?

• 5:45Speaker 04

  Oh, yeah. So they're, you guys are gonna have no.

• 5:48Speaker 05

  What'd you say? I didn't hear.

• 5:50Speaker 06

  So they're gonna kick out Eli Duckworth for making Glock horse cum jokes at SHOT Show. But they'll allow like 80, 80,000 Chinese nationals to show up and take pictures of all the new products from the American gun industry. Like you straight up will have Chinese nationals all over the show floor, like taking pictures. There was one dude this year that had a 3D scanner.

• 6:12The Fat Electrician?

  No way.

• 6:13Speaker 06

  Like brazen.

• 6:14Speaker 05

  Dude, I, this is a true story. So I got invited to go run a booth. This is 2013, 14, I don't know, in IWA. Do you guys know what IWA is?

• 6:25Speaker 06

  Yep.

• 6:25Speaker 05

  It was like the German SHOT Show. And it was a very advanced pistol that I was at the booth for and it was, it was pretty cool. It's a pretty revolutionary design. Anyways, I was there.

• 6:35Speaker 06

  Where was it?

• 6:36Speaker 05

  Uh, well, it.

• 6:39Speaker 05

  At the time, it was the Strike One, the Arsenal Strike One, which has a revolutionary feature, but they screwed up a lot of things. The pistol's been, now it's being made by, I think a friend of mine actually bought the rights to it. But anyways, it's a very revolutionary design. If you look at the way that the gun works, it's got a low, uh, low

• 6:59Speaker 06

  Boreax.

• 6:59Speaker 05

  Boreax, it's very, actually the lowest there is. Anyways, and the way, it's got a locking, a rotating locking box. It's a pretty cool, pretty unique design. And, um, so I'm working at the booth and I'm like showing how it works. I got my little spiel and this dude comes up, obviously Chinese.

• 7:15Speaker 06

  How could you tell?

• 7:16Speaker 05

  Uh, so I've been quite extensively throughout Asia. I've been around Asia, I'm pretty good at rec, I can, I can tell the difference, I'll put it this way, I can tell the difference between Hong Kongese and mainland Chinese. So I'm, I'm pretty skilled.

• 7:31Speaker 06

  So you're like, super racist?

• 7:32Speaker 05

  I'm super good, yeah, I'm super good at it, yeah.

• 7:35Speaker 06

  What exactly are you? I want to call you a slur.

• 7:37Speaker 05

  So, so I'm like, looking at this guy, I'm like, this is definitely mainland Chinese. This is not even Hong Kongese. And, um, and basically, dude, you bust out this camera and just starts like taking photos, like, and I mean like taking it apart photos. And I came over and I was like, what, he didn't even speak English enough to like tell me what he was doing. And I literally had to get security to get him away. But he was going around just taking guns apart and just taking, you know, every 400 images of photos so they can recreate it.

• 8:08Speaker 06

  Just so next year, we can see the same pistol at the Holosun booth.

• 8:11Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly.

• 8:13Speaker 04

  Brand, the, you did the joke with the ones that wanted your photo.

• 8:18Speaker 06

  Well, so yeah, it's the one that Nick, uh, Nick made us tell last year, the story where, uh, we had some like Chinese YouTubers that came up to us at SHOT Show and like they want to take a picture and like as a joke, we're all like tipped as hell. So we, we, uh, we go in for the photo and like right as they're taking the picture, we go, fuck communism.

• 8:40Speaker 06

  And the guy taking the photo goes deadpan and takes the SD card out of the

• 8:44Speaker 05

  Oh my

• 8:45Speaker 06

  So we probably got

• 8:46Speaker 05

  Beheaded Dude

• 8:48Speaker 06

  You guys Yeah, it's the only time I've seen like they took the The card out of the camera like Oh wow This year the joke was every time we'd see a group of Chinese nationals like I'm just fucking sick of it at this point it's like you guys are like We're basically in a cold war with China at this point and we're just allowing their people to come in and take Pictures of all our new shit like that's Come on, are we trying?

• 9:07Speaker 05

  No, the answer is no.

• 9:08Speaker 06

  We would just, we would just come up and like we see a group of them like walking by or like trying to take pictures of shit and we just lean in next to their camera and go Tiananmen Square.

• 9:21Speaker 06

  Can we? East or what is it? What do we call them? West Taiwan?

• 9:26Speaker 06

  They really like it when you call them that.

• 9:28Speaker 05

  I just got back from Taiwan. I was literally there in December, actually.

• 9:31Speaker 06

  You go everywhere.

• 9:32Speaker 05

  I, I, yeah, I've been around recently. I hate traveling, but I love it too.

• 9:39Speaker 06

  I know by the time you're calling me, it's like two in the morning, like I was asleep. I was like, why is it like midday for me? Weird.

• 9:47Speaker 01

  We were in Australia and New Zealand. We were trying to connect and get stuff.

• 9:50Speaker 05

  It was a nightmare.

• 9:50Speaker 01

  It was horrible.

• 9:52Speaker 05

  Yeah, it was a nightmare. I, I feel like we, we brushed over something that I feel like I need more information on.

• 9:58Speaker 06

  Kick out a shot coat, shot show for some horse come by, what?

• 10:05The Fat Electrician?

  Are you familiar with Glock?

• 10:08Speaker 05

  I've heard of

• 10:09The Fat Electrician?

  A little bit?

• 10:10Speaker 05

  Yes.

• 10:11The Fat Electrician?

  So they primarily make their income manufacturing.

• 10:15Speaker 05

  In Georgia, yeah.

• 10:16The Fat Electrician?

  No, like what product?

• 10:18Speaker 05

  Oh, uh, see, Derek Glock.

• 10:20The Fat Electrician?

  Firearms, yeah.

• 10:21Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah.

• 10:22The Fat Electrician?

  Would you, would you guess the other product that they're known for selling?

• 10:27Speaker 05

  I guess it's horse come.

• 10:29Speaker 06

  Equine semen, correct.

• 10:32Speaker 06

  Yeah, yeah. That's a full ass thing.

• 10:34The Fat Electrician?

  What?

• 10:36Speaker 05

  There's a lot of money made.

• 10:38The Fat Electrician?

  Glock sells pistols and combs.

• 10:41The Fat Electrician?

  They don't like it when you joke about it for some reason.

• 10:44Speaker 06

  No, they legitimately like, you know, that's like a really higher tier thing in Europe where they're just like, oh yeah, well, you've made millions and millions of dollars. I guess obviously you're going to get into the racehorse game.

• 10:53The Fat Electrician?

  Interesting.

• 10:53Speaker 06

  Racehorse game. Yeah. So they legitimately have a like equestrian uh section of yeah. It's not regular for you. That's weird.

• 11:04Speaker 05

  It's the good horse.

• 11:07The Fat Electrician?

  I can't wait to make my new rap group, Guns and Combs.

• 11:11Speaker 05

  That's crazy.

• 11:14Speaker 05

  Glock started actually by making knives.

• 11:16The Fat Electrician?

  Yep. Really?

• 11:18Speaker 06

  Oh shit.

• 11:18Speaker 05

  Yeah. So the, so interesting story. They first made knives. Uh, they still make the Glock knife, but on the Glock knife is a plastic handle that's a uh injection molded. And that's why his Gaston Glock's experience with uh plastic came from making those uh knives and the plastic scabbards. He was like, I know plastics well. I'm pretty sure I could make a gun out of it. Um, and the interesting thing I'll say about this with the firearms industry or every industry is, you know, when Gaston Glock was like, hey, I think I can make a slide out of plastic. Everyone was like, that's insane. A pl- a frame has to be metal.

• 11:54Speaker 05

  Plastic frames will never work. It just goes to show you and Gaston Glock's like, eh, I've been working with plastics for quite a few years. I think you're wrong. And then boom, now everyone, it's like, innovation, any, I'm going to tell you right now, here's a fact about a product. Anything is possible. Period. Anything is possible. And anytime any industry in the gun industry is excessively bad at it, they, and the movie industry is the same. They go, oh, that can't possibly work. And then someone goes, hmm, I think it can. They do it. It works. And then everyone goes, let's all do that. Hey, every fucking brand now to include brands that made only metal frames are making plastic frames. But it started with Gaston uh Glock all because he was just like, I, I think I can do that.

• 12:38Speaker 06

  Every time you go to shot show and there's a new Glock killer, it looks exactly like a Glock.

• 12:45Speaker 05

  Stryker fired pistol. It's like, yeah, no shit. That's like, he came up with that in 1983.

• 12:50Speaker 06

  Good work. Yeah. Congrats. You're half a century behind.

• 12:54The Fat Electrician?

  You, you guys laugh, but Sig figured out how to make them shoot themselves. So he's a real innovator here.

• 13:00Speaker 06

  Their collaboration with Isaac Newton.

• 13:04Speaker 05

  What they're shooting.

• 13:05The Fat Electrician?

  That was a P320 joke, how they just have a tendency to go off on their own.

• 13:09Speaker 05

  Really? They had you can drop, there was like videos. I know the Taurus, the Taurus was having that issue, like the Breda, the Taurus Breda copy, it was like in Brazil. They like threw it on the ground.

• 13:20Speaker 05

  You just shake. The 320.

• 13:22The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 13:22Speaker 05

  Yeah. Take the 320.

• 13:24The Fat Electrician?

  So for, for Fat Pew's, me and Pew View's show, we're doing a P320 versus a Glock 19. And we're, we're gonna use blanks, obviously, but we're gonna have the loaded gun. And we're gonna see what it takes to actually make them go off by dropping them. And I've just, I already, we have a, we have a, a grain silo that's like four stories high, that we're already gonna go and throw the Glock and the P320 off of while they're loaded to see if they go off.

• 13:49Speaker 05

  Wow.

• 13:49The Fat Electrician?

  I guarantee you, I can overhand a Glock at a brick wall as hard as I can, it won't go off.

• 13:53Speaker 05

  A Glock has three drop safeties.

• 13:55The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, like it's, it's impossible to make a Glock go off on accident.

• 13:58Speaker 05

  Designed that way, yeah.

• 13:59Speaker 06

  God, I have so many questions. Well, what a lot of people don't know is that it's illegal to import, I, I believe, I, I believe this is correct. It's illegal to import a pistol that doesn't at least have one safety. Or like a certain amount of redundancies on the safety.

• 14:11Speaker 05

  Probably, yeah, I mean, that makes sense. I know Glock has, has three, the, the way the pistol is designed.

• 14:18The Fat Electrician?

  That's why it's stupid that Glock lost the contract for the new service pistol to whatever they named the P320. It's the same.

• 14:26The Fat Electrician?

  So like, M17 beat it out for the military contract for the sole reason that Glock refused to put a manual safety on a Glock because it's just fucking quadruple overkill.

• 14:36Speaker 05

  You know, I mean, so I'll tell you another Glock story, cause I'm a gun nerd and.

• 14:43The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 14:44Speaker 06

  You've handled one.

• 14:45Speaker 05

  People are gonna learn something, so, no, so, so Glock, here's the interesting thing, and this is why Glock, this is why Glock is Glock, is because the reason that he made a Glock was because at that time, again, this is the late seventies, early eighties. And he looked at it and you had two pistols, you had a revolver and you had an automatic. All automatics, I mean, and I'm all, right? There's exceptions to everything, but most, the vast majority of semi-automatics had a manual safety. And there were massive statistics on how many times somebody drew.

• 15:19Speaker 05

  And didn't remember to take off the manual safety and therefore didn't fire around and were killed. So Gaston Glock, being the genius he was, he's like, now, that didn't exist for a revolver. You pull out a double action revolver for it, pull the trigger, it fires. So he's like, now, who was using revolvers at the time? Cops. Glock wanted to make a gun for the military and law enforcement. So he's like, I want a gun that's semi-automatic, but when you pull it out, it just fires. You don't have to manually train to put off a safety. So he was like, well, why don't I put the safety into the trigger? And he did that so that you could just pull and worry about shooting, not have to extra train. So

• 16:04Speaker 05

  really, the Glock was designed to reduce the amount of training it took to fire a service weapon in combat or...

• 16:11Speaker 06

  Well, that's why SIG is ahead of everybody in being innovators, because you don't even have to pull them out.

• 16:20Speaker 06

  They're like, how do we one up Glock? What if you don't even need to shoot it? Eli saw the smirk and knew exactly where that was.

• 16:30Speaker 05

  But so the last part of that is, the reason that the Glock replaced, specifically the Glock, replaced double action revolvers for law enforcement, is because it was the same in training. You pull it out, you pull the trigger, it fires. There wasn't a need to retrain a department in semi-automatics to replace their revolvers. And that's why Glock, I mean, one of the reasons Glock is so prevalent in law enforcement.

• 16:57Speaker 01

  Do gun companies, do they do recalls then if there's, if there's an issue with?

• 17:00Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 17:01Speaker 01

  So is that a recalled gun then?

• 17:04The Fat Electrician?

  Glock? No.

• 17:04Speaker 01

  No, for the SIG, for the SIG.

• 17:06The Fat Electrician?

  Uh, there's been a couple. They also have...

• 17:09Speaker 05

  I mean, it's not like a Jeep, you know? Take your gun to the gunsmith.

• 17:16The Fat Electrician?

  It has happened. Oh, we fixed it. Well, well, but, I mean, the recent, all the recent ones are like, I've seen the videos where it's like a cop just like, literally talking to somebody and his gun just goes off.

• 17:29Speaker 04

  What?

• 17:29The Fat Electrician?

  What the fuck? Oh, yeah.

• 17:30Speaker 06

  Like in the holster.

• 17:31The Fat Electrician?

  In the holster, completely holster gun and he's like talking and it's just like security can't footage and the gun just goes off and Glock is like. Are you sure that wasn't a pager? He re-holstered that the wrong way. Sorry Sig, yeah Sig is like he re-holstered that the wrong way.

• 17:44Speaker 04

  Wow.

• 17:45The Fat Electrician?

  Whoa.

• 17:45Speaker 04

  Blocked it, my bad.

• 17:47Speaker 06

  Gaston, God rest his name, would never let that fly.

• 17:50The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, no, yeah.

• 17:52Speaker 04

  But it is security footage of it sitting in a holster and going off, dropping, going off like, and then people trying to prove it doesn't go off when they drop it and it going.

• 18:02The Fat Electrician?

  Oh, no.

• 18:02Speaker 04

  Yeah. Oh, yeah, the whole thing. And then they're like, uh, send those back in if you want, we'll fix it.

• 18:08The Fat Electrician?

  If you want.

• 18:09Speaker 06

  It's, it's just like a known thing now that happens and like all Sig fanboys are just like, okay with it. It's pretty funny. Like, I don't, I don't dislike Sig. Like, I, I have a couple of their guns and like, it's, you know, the perfectly acceptable gun, but let's just not pretend like that's not a prevalent issue.

• 18:26The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, I mean, you have two options. You have the companies still trying to perfect firearms and you have the company that perfected firearms decades ago and has moved on to horse comp.

• 20:05Speaker 04

  AJ, what is your background and everything?

• 20:07Speaker 01

  Uh, I was born in Dublin and I, uh... Aye. Aye. Aye. Damn it, show's not here! Yeah, I left, I left early when I was six and went to Vancouver, Canada. I was in Canada till I was 17 and booked a movie in, uh, in Vancouver. They brought me down to LA. And then just, yeah, my career just sort of, uh, started there. I always wanted to be an actor and stuff. Um, since I was five, that was the only thing I ever wanted to do, but... Yeah, went down to Los Angeles and, uh, went out for an audition when I was there, got an agent and, uh, ended up booking the first job there. And then it was, it was, it wasn't that, I mean, I ended up... Sorry, what, like a year-ish? This was 1982.

• 20:49Speaker 01

  Yeah, 82. Uh, um, this was 2001? 2000, yeah, 2001, 2002. Um, and then, uh, then I hit a bit of a dry spell, lived on my car for about a year and a half because I was too old to play like a cop, too, too, too old to, uh, to play like high school and too young to play a copper and they had like peach fuzz, like, we just, just started to shave. And, uh, um, and then it kind of went through this really sort of rough spell, got messed up with the wrong people and like everything, Hollywood's like this pretty flower that just like eats you alive and watches you send you home. So then I just figured out, I was like, should I go home and, you know, get a nine to five, which is nothing wrong with nine to five, but like, no, fuck it, I'll just, you know... Canada was the issue, not the nine to five job.

• 21:34Speaker 01

  Yeah, Canada was cool, Canada was cool back then. Uh, but, uh, yeah, and then, um...

• 21:38Speaker 03

  The future 51st state.

• 21:39Speaker 01

  And then I was, uh, it was probably 2007, uh, when things sort of turned around again. I was at like $32.95 to my anyway, so I got the, the bankruptcy from Wells Fargo that day. And I got a call, I booked CSI New York. At the time when the CSI New York was the third of the franchise that came out. And then I booked a series regular on that and then my sort of life changed forever. Yeah, with Gary Sinise was the star of that. I did nine years, nine seasons of that with Gary. I don't know if you guys have ever met Gary or ever had him on the show.

• 22:10Speaker 06

  He's a rad dude, though.

• 22:11Speaker 01

  Honestly, he is the greatest, and I really mean this, there's not many human beings on this planet that I just, he is the most selfless human being ever. He, he would do things during CSI New York that there was no cameras there. Like, he would help vets, he'd build houses, he would just do things out of his own pocket. And just, and it was never cameras. He just, the amount of stuff that he's done to, to the veteran community, and then how the foundation is run, the Gary Sinise Foundation, and that the, all the money goes to the, the people, like you'd actually season the amount of how, just everything that he's done and what he represents. He's sort of the gold standard, I feel, of foundations.

• 22:49Speaker 06

  Did all of that, like, kind of come from the Lieutenant Dan role?

• 22:51Speaker 01

  Yeah, he was really, he was really, he comes from a military family. And, uh, yeah, but the Lieutenant Dan role really did that, and he started the Gary, the Lieutenant Dan Band. And then, um, he, I mean, every other weekend, he's at a hospital, or he's at some event, or he's at some things. So I, when we got SEAL Team, I had called him up, and was like, hey, how do I, how do I get, really get involved in this? Like, actually, in 2008, he sent me, he, I was like, I want to go overseas. So he sent me, 2008, I went over to Iraq. And, dude, it was crazy. I had no fucking clue what.

• 23:23Speaker 06

  You went in 2008?

• 23:24Speaker 01

  Yeah, right, right when you guys were doing the push to Afghanistan. Yeah, that was still the surge, too early. I stayed at Camp Liberty at the, at Saddam's palace there. Yeah. I think the three-star general was like General Tchokobe, I think his name was. That was early 2008? Yeah, yeah. And, uh, but it was, it was crazy. Like, I went there to, we pull up, got, we flew into Kuwait. And then we took a C seventeen to Delta FOB and I'll never forget this like flying in and they guided like we all had like a person that was with us um like uh team guy or whatever like this is your your buddy like and I was like oh wide eyed and this guy like fuck I got this idiot. That's so wild.

• 24:05Speaker 01

  Like this is so direct. That's what's more wild to me. I'm like, oh man. No clue. And the guy, the guy's like, uh, he's like, you like, you like, are you scared of planes? Flyer? He's like, I'm like, no, I'm good. I'm fired up. This is great. He's like, okay. He's like, just get ready. He's gonna get weird. I'm like, why? And just as he said that, it did that like strategic dive down to land.

• 24:25Speaker 05

  Below radar, map of the earth, baby.

• 24:28Speaker 01

  I was like, oh my gosh. I thought I was fucking dying. I didn't know what I was gonna do. It's like flares going blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

• 24:33Speaker 05

  It's it's like aliens and it's like, you know, he's like on the drop ship.

• 24:37Speaker 01

  Yeah, but there's so we went and stayed, we went, we flew into, we flew into uh, Delta FOB and then we black parked to uh, to Camp Liberty and we stayed there. We were there for um, fifteen days and then we would go out each day to different fobs and hang uh, for a day or two at the fob. Some days we got, there would be a sandstorm and we'd have to stay, but it was awesome. Like it was a real, really cool thing. I mean, one of the days going over Sodder City, we, we uh, I will never, I, this is like true story. I literally pissed my pants, like literally pissed my fucking pants in front of a bunch of people. I was so scared. Such, I was going, we're going over in the Blackhawk and we had like Blackhawks and there was some Apaches and we were going over and

• 25:19Speaker 01

  I guess whatever happened, they picked up that there's some radar or something was on it and our Blackhawk like turns and fucking flares start going and I don't know what's happened. All but everything went quiet on the comms and they were, they were firing shit. Dude, I pissed myself. I was like, I thought, and I have a, I like, I had like a camp car, like a tour, like, oh my god.

• 25:40Speaker 05

  I mean, fair enough.

• 25:42Speaker 01

  And I'd never heard a fifty cal go off before. Like this is way before SEAL Team. So I'd never, I didn't know what the hell. And then it was crazy when we landed. The kid that like shot the gun, he was like, he watched the show, he's like, can I get a picture with you while he had that Halo looking mask on?

• 25:56Speaker 04

  Yeah, the big one.

• 25:57Speaker 01

  And this be way before Halo, but it was like just, I was just like, oh shit, yeah, of course. And he took it off and like this kid was so like, he was younger than me, he had some peach fuzz. And I was like, this motherfucker had balls of steel. While I was sitting in the back pissing my pants. So, and then I also got, uh, uh, my first Blackhawk ride, I, I went to the right side in the back, backseat. So that air was like, ah, just eating the air for like, it was, it was pretty painful for, I thought like this'll, this'll end at some point. It was like 30 minutes later and it was like, ah.

• 26:27Speaker 04

  When getting off that fur, when you get off in like Kuwait.

• 26:30Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 26:30Speaker 04

  How hot it is. Oh.

• 26:32Speaker 01

  And we did, so we, we went to.

• 26:35Speaker 04

  You turn right and.

• 26:39Speaker 01

  We went to the air force base there in Kuwait, where they had us staying at. But what I couldn't believe is like, we, when we landed, they had us like a convoy, which now from the show, uh, like where we'd have like the lead vehicle, then we'd be in the middle and, and they just wouldn't stop for anything. And I was just like, oh my God, fucking this is nuts. Like I just, just going through all the things like see passing camels on the road. And they pull you to this hotel and there's a TGI Friday and a Starbucks. I'm like, what the fuck?

• 27:06Speaker 06

  He did say it was an air force base.

• 27:13Speaker 06

  It reminds me of, I, I don't know if you've ever brought this up in a video. I know, I think you have the deployable, uh.

• 27:18The Fat Electrician?

  The deployable Burger King?

• 27:20Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 27:20Speaker 01

  What is that?

• 27:21The Fat Electrician?

  America has a deployable Burger King. It can be anywhere in the world in 24 hours.

• 27:25Speaker 06

  That's what we referred to as a.

• 27:27The Fat Electrician?

  Semi trailer that you can pull out of a C-130 and it's a fully operational Burger King.

• 27:34Speaker 04

  Somebody's getting money for that behind the.

• 27:36Speaker 01

  There's, there's still, every once in a while on a road trip, I'll stop and get a Whopper. The Whoppers is like, everyone's on like a bad road trip, you get a Whopper. Whoppers are still, they're still, they'll, you shit your pants after, but it's, it's worth it. Just a fucking Whopper or the chicken sandwich. I'll go for it.

• 27:50The Fat Electrician?

  Could you imagine being an enemy of America, being like, oh, I haven't had food in a little while. Supply lines are weak. And then America pulls a Burger King out of a plane. It's like, oh shit.

• 28:01Speaker 06

  Your kids walks out in his costume.

• 28:07Speaker 06

  Europeans have to look at that and think that's the most American shit.

• 28:09The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah. I think I've started to bring this up and like got interrupted in a previous podcast, but like, you, I, you don't know the chocolate cake story, do you from World War II? The whole so like

• 28:19Speaker 05

  The ice cream story. I don't know.

• 28:20The Fat Electrician?

  So yeah, there's the ice cream ships. That was with Japan. That was like when Japan realized we were fucked is when they found out we had entire naval vessels whose whole job was to make ice cream for the Navy in World War II.

• 28:31Speaker 05

  But pretty dope.

• 28:32The Fat Electrician?

  On the German front.

• 28:33Speaker 04

  Historian.

• 28:34The Fat Electrician?

  On, on the German front, like there's a, I, I haven't read the actual one because I can't read German, but allegedly, uh, there's like a German officer that they interviewed and they were like, so like, yeah, when did, when did you realize the war was over? And he's like, we intercepted American mail and like in the mail on the front line, somebody had shipped him a chocolate cake and it was still good. And he's like, that's when we realized that like the American logistics is going to win this war. No matter what, we're fucked. They just got a chocolate cake to the front lines from the other side of the planet before it got bad.

• 29:09Speaker 05

  In the forties.

• 29:10The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah. In the forties.

• 29:11Speaker 01

  Wow. Yeah.

• 29:12The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah.

• 29:13Speaker 05

  So how was it like when you started like doing that? That is a wild experience. That's, that's awesome. You went through that experience. You signed up for that. You're like, I want to do this.

• 29:22Speaker 01

  I wanted to, I really wanted to go. I, I, I saw what the, I'd seen the Gary Sinise, uh, the lieutenant, he would throw a concert every year, uh, for the entire, uh, um, CBS, uh, lot that were actually the, the crazy thing is where we filmed CSI New York at CBS Radford ended up being the same studio that we, we filmed SEAL Team at. Like, so like five years, six years later, came back at the same stage. We were on stage three for nine seasons.

• 29:47Speaker 05

  Tom, did you ever told me that?

• 29:48Speaker 01

  And then, and then stage 23, we were on that stage for seven seasons. So that, that studio became like a second home and, uh, but the Gary Sinise would throw a big fucking, uh, uh, party for them and, and I met a bunch of guys and was hearing the stories. And again, it was very fresh. It was like, you know, and it was, there was.

• 30:08The Fat Electrician?

  How, how far into like your professional acting career are you at this time when you went over?

• 30:12Speaker 01

  Well, this is my first real, like CSI New York changed my life completely.

• 30:17The Fat Electrician?

  Like how many years into that?

• 30:18Speaker 01

  Oh, I'd be so, I start, I got my first gig on the X-Files, like season one of the X-Files.

• 30:24Speaker 05

  AJ's been in a ton of stuff and he looks, I can say this, he looks, I, I've, I, I had worked with AJ for probably a year and then he starts posting clips of stuff he's done. I'm like, I know, like I remember that. That was you? Dude, he looks, he's like, Gary Oldman. He looks completely different in each role. Like, completely. Doesn't even look like himself right now. Like, I, multiple, dude, he, he could show you the, the role he did on, um, on, uh, the, uh...

• 30:55Speaker 01

  Entourage?

• 30:56Speaker 05

  Yeah, Entourage. Dude, does he, I-

• 30:57Speaker 01

  He did Entourage?

• 30:58Speaker 05

  Dude-

• 30:59Speaker 01

  Did you remember Anna Faris's boyfriend?

• 31:01Speaker 05

  Oh shit.

• 31:01Speaker 01

  Yeah, like, "Give me the coke."

• 31:03Speaker 05

  (laughing) That's him.

• 31:05Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 31:06Speaker 05

  He starts posting stuff. I'm like, I didn't even know that was you. Yeah, dude, he crushed it. He looks very different in, in each role. I mean, in CSI New York, he's a, he's a nerd. He's literally a computer nerd. Or a-

• 31:18Speaker 01

  I was a forensic pathologist.

• 31:20Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 31:21Speaker 01

  But I remember the day, like, when they were testing me out for it, and I'm super dyslexic and I had real trouble reading anything.

• 31:28Speaker 05

  Oh, you'll get along with all of us.

• 31:29Speaker 01

  And so I have to, I have to hear fucking everything and to memorize it. But, so the day that they wanted to test me for the show, they had me come, because they're going through lab tests, everyone. I was just there to drive the story. I would show up on page nine, I'm out on page thirty-three, thirty-four, unless they let me out of the lab, which was only three times, and every girl I had got murdered. So, it was a sad case. So, um, but the first word I had to say, and it was with Gary Sinise, and I knew that this is my test, like, it's a fill-me-down thing, and so, um, and, and usually I'd have, like, you'd have, like, a day or two with the lines to memorize it. They were just like, "Come down to the set, here's your stuff, go." So I see this big monologue and stuff, I'm like, "Oh, please, God, this, like, make my brain work."

• 32:12Speaker 01

  So, for some reason, I, I, when the, the first word was methoxydisopropyltryptamine, and that was, the word was like, that, which is basically, yes.

• 32:20Speaker 05

  Bro, I'd be like, "This gave you like a hundred KBI."

• 32:23Speaker 01

  Well, I remember every, I remember every day, yeah. I remember every single big fucking word on that show, because it would haunt me. So, so I get through, I get through this, to start doing the scene, and I'm flubbing over the stuff, and I'm just, I'm totally sweating. I keep hitting over, like, thermals and all this other stuff, and the director calls, "Cut", and I think, "All right, they're gonna, I'm done." And the, uh, the showrunner, Pam Bessie, is like, she's like, hey, she's yelling from behind the mall, she's like, "Keep whatever that choice you're doing of playing, I'm really nervous, it's hysterical, keep doing that, that, we love that." I'm like, "Oh, my God." That was on purpose. He totally got this coming in and doing this like bit, like this fumbling, mumbling guy. I'm a method actor. That's a bit. I'm so good, I can make myself swag.

• 33:07Speaker 01

  Like this and I was like, he gave it like, the character's name was Mac and I'd be Mac, Mac. And I was like, so then the writer started to write me mumbling and bumbling through the things. As they were, we love this dude. Great choice. And I was like, it wasn't until like years later, like I'd done, I'm like, guys, I would actually shit my pants that day.

• 33:24Speaker 01

  And they're like, what? I'm like, no, this is not a character. Like I'm still, when you give me big words, I'm really terrified.

• 33:32Speaker 01

  And Gary, and Gary, years there, I was telling you this. Gary has this, like I had such admiration for him, whatever he did on stage, as Stephen Wolf and like, you know, he's in Forrest Gump and Ted and Dan. So as an actor, he was just somebody that I really admired. But he had this thing that in the scenes, he would just, his character would just stare at you and just like, really just stare. So I was like, yeah, just he looked pissed off all the time. And I'm getting in my own head. I'm like, fuck, oh god, he hate, like Gary fucking hates me. Gary, see, he hates me. So I'm thinking this in my head while I'm doing the scene and then it's just making it worse. And I'd always be like, see, I'm like Gary. Like I'd say out of his way and stuff. And I told him later, I'm like, dude, I was, he was like, what? He's like, you were, I'm like, I thought he was like, no, man. He's like, I was just, I was just in the scene looking at.

• 34:12Speaker 01

  He was like, and in my mind, I'm thinking, this character Adam's an idiot, you know, but I know you're not a real idiot, AJ. I'm like, oh, thanks, Gary.

• 34:21Speaker 01

  Just your character.

• 34:24Speaker 01

  You weren't actually acting for it. Let me say it, AJ, you really sold it. I mean, really sold it. But it was, yeah, it was, but that show was, yeah, a massive game changer. So AJ.

• 35:08Speaker 05

  You know, I'll tell this story. So when I show up on the show, I'm sorry, on Sil Team.

• 35:14Speaker 05

  Dude, I so they're like, hey, can you, they called me up on like a Wednesday and they're like, hey, can you be in New Orleans on Friday, you know, for, I think it was six weeks. And I was like, oh shit, man. You know, like I, and I had to move a lot of stuff around at that time. I had, I literally, I actually quit a job to, to go work on Sil Team, uh, which is a whole story in itself. But dude, they're hitting me up for like, I'm figuring out my life. Like I gotta, I literally quit a really good job to go do this, which was a huge risk, by the way. Which I'll just tell that story very quickly because I think it's important. Um, I got called, I wanted to work in Hollywood. And, you know, I, when I got the, I got a big movie when they called for Squad, they're like, hey, can you leave?

• 35:57Speaker 06

  Which one?

• 35:58Speaker 05

  The first one, first one.

• 35:59Speaker 06

  I'm so sorry.

• 36:00Speaker 05

  Oh dude, it was actually awesome. The, they, so I'm friends with David who directed, Air, who directed it. I mean, what we shot was an awesome movie. What was edited was not an awesome.

• 36:11Speaker 06

  That's what I hear.

• 36:12Speaker 05

  Yeah, but I'm telling you right now, I was there for six months filming. What we shot was awesome. A very good movie. What was edited, what, what was shot was not a comedy.

• 36:22Speaker 06

  What, what do you mean? The, the studio can fuck up a good production.

• 36:25Speaker 05

  I know, it's shocking, but uh,

• 36:29Speaker 05

  what was shot was a lot of good stuff. Um, I mean, dude, they could have edited an entire movie of just Joker and Harley Quinn. Like they had enough footage to just do an entire movie with them. And I was actually, so there's actually a scene, by the way, that I'm in, that you don't know it, but the scene where, uh, the Joker goes into Harley Quinn's, um, Harley Quinn's cell, there's a guy that opens, excuse me, the door.

• 36:55Speaker 06

  Like the tail end of the movie?

• 36:56Speaker 05

  Yeah, it's a very, I think it's actually the last scene where there's a guy in a gas mask, he opens the door for Joker, Joker goes in and then he guards the door. That's me, wearing a gas mask. Um, I couldn't, I had to have a gas mask because I'm actually in the movie as a good guy. So I couldn't also be a bad guy. But anyways, I just did that. Um, anyways, dude, there was a lot of good, there was a lot of dialogue in that scene, just that disappeared. But that scene was shot for like, you know, an hour on screen and it's, you know, 30 seconds in the movie. Anyways, um, when I got that job offer, call me up, hey, six months in Toronto, can you leave in three days? And I'm like, So it was a big life decision. I'm like, this is the direction I want to go. So I dropped everything and made some pretty serious ramifications to the relationship I was in

• 37:39Speaker 05

  at the time. And I was like, this is the direction I want to go. And I left. And I got, I ended up technically getting SEAL Team, that call directly from that. SEAL Team happens, and again, I get a call, can you leave in a couple of days for six weeks? I had a really good job at the time. And I was just like, man, I gotta, I gotta try. I gotta try. And so I quit that job and ended up going. My pull point is, is dude, if something is what you want to do in life, no matter how good what you have is, you gotta reach for the thing that you want to do. And I can tell you, it was those two decisions were the debatably, two of the best decisions I made in my life, was letting go of what I had to try and grab on to what I want. You know?

• 38:24Speaker 04

  And everyone at this table.

• 38:26Speaker 05

  No, I know. I know everyone here agrees with that. But I want to say it to the audience, because if those decision points come up in your life, go, just go.

• 38:36Speaker 04

  It's gonna be scary as fuck.

• 38:37Speaker 05

  It's gonna be scary. Don't think too hard. Go, reach out towards what you want.

• 38:41Speaker 04

  And you can definitely fail. Like, you could fuck it up.

• 38:44Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 38:44Speaker 04

  But you'll never regret it.

• 38:45Speaker 05

  No, no, you can fuck it up. But when that opportunity comes up again, try it again. So the story I was gonna tell is, dude, during that decision time, when I'm like, I'm trying to like, I'm like, making major changes to my life, I'm getting a text twice a fucking day from the damn producer going, hey, AJ Buckley really wants to talk to you. He's ready to go. He's looking forward to talking to a military guy. He's really high. Take a shooting. I'm like, dude, I haven't even agreed to do the fucking job yet. And they're just like, man, he's ready to go. I literally got 10 or 12 texts before I even agreed to fly.

• 39:18Speaker 01

  My bathtub coming up out of my bathtub.

• 39:20Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah. He's like, he's like doing breathing exercises. It was bananas. But I show up, man. And yeah, AJ and I just started rocking and rolling. But

• 39:29Speaker 01

  Yeah, we hit it off.

• 39:30Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 39:30Speaker 04

  We had it. We hit it off. What was, like, you're like, okay, I've done X, Y, and Z, flew over, pissed myself, flying in

• 39:37Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 39:38Speaker 04

  in Blackhawk, and now working with Tyler.

• 39:40Speaker 01

  Well, crazy thing. So I started watching a bunch of different shows, and I watched The Selection, which that he did with, um, what was it? It was History Channel or whatever? Or? Was it? It was like, it was like what that Fox show is. Yeah, no, no, it was History Channel, sorry. It was like what that Fox show is now, where, what is it called? Uh, Special Forces. Special Forces, so it's the, uh, it's, it was a Special Forces one, but it, there was like the first one. So I was watching, I was like, and me and my wife were like, oh, this Tyler guy. So I literally, when I first met him, oh, you're Tyler Gray. He actually knew who I was. No, fuck, didn't hear from that show. So I was already fanboying. And then we, I just like, I wanted to, I, cause I had, I didn't grow up shooting guns, really. I, I shot like a handgun. Uh, you, you, you already said you're from Canada. Canadians.

• 40:24Speaker 01

  It was, it was out there. So, so. Well, we had UK first. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we, uh, so then I, I was with you on the ship that we're out there shooting with first night. I shot the two, four, nine. Yeah. And. Also, I'm, I'm aware how many Irish, Irish people I pissed off by saying.

• 40:39Speaker 04

  I didn't want to bring it up to make it more awkward.

• 40:43Speaker 01

  For those who don't know, that was a dig.

• 40:45Speaker 04

  Her owner of this show, she is from Ireland and moved here two years ago.

• 40:49Speaker 01

  I looked around, she wasn't there and then I felt like a dipshit.

• 40:51Speaker 04

  That's right, yeah, I was like, we're, she's not here.

• 40:53Speaker 01

  Where's, where's, in Ireland is she from?

• 40:55Speaker 04

  Is she from Ireland?

• 40:56Speaker 01

  Ireland. Her and her, Dave, both of them. Her, her and her husband moved here three years ago from Ireland. Dude, if you ever get a chance to go to Ireland, I highly recommend it. What do you mean? She's from the white part. You guys should go do a podcast there.

• 41:17Speaker 01

  You should definitely go to Ireland though. It is, you will get like, get to the countryside and, and just rent a car and do the coast. It's, it'll be by far one of the best trips you ever had in your life. Really? Yeah, you guys should go do a fucking podcast there.

• 41:28Speaker 04

  How long is the drive for the coast?

• 41:30Speaker 01

  Around, you could do it. From here to Ireland? No.

• 41:33Speaker 04

  To Ireland, like, what's to get there?

• 41:36Speaker 01

  You could do it in, like, if, are you stopping or not stopping?

• 41:39Speaker 04

  Uh, yeah, whatever.

• 41:40Speaker 01

  You could, you could do the entire coast and it'd be a good trip, like it, like 10 days and stop, like a bed and breakfast and have a day or two here. Like, but awesome, like just, like the village, you go to these tiny little villages and. It's right out of a storybook, but you just like the Irish people are so welcome. They just open the door like as soon as you meet them. They'll like invite you to like you can stay at their house like they'll give the shirt off the back to you. Here's a Guinness. Yeah, though like Guinness is a whole, you'll learn the true proper way to pour a pint of Guinness and the Guinness. Here and the Guinness there tastes a hundred percent different. Like my mother used to pour, the doctors used to prescribe Guinness. For uh the kids. I love this country.

• 42:20Speaker 01

  If they were lower, if they were lower in like your in iron, the doctor would say, I just pour some Guinness in his porridge. So they would get Guinness and. Did you just say porridge? Porridge. I believe so. Or oatmeal.

• 42:32The Fat Electrician?

  What uh what?

• 42:33Speaker 01

  Try out introduce yourself? This is our boy Connor.

• 42:39Speaker 01

  Cody? Yeah, where'd he go? That's the same guy.

• 42:48Speaker 01

  Hi everyone, Ozempic Cody.

• 42:53The Fat Electrician?

  History tism. Um you know in the cans of Guinness, there's that little ball at the bottom for um like keeping the foam right like it's on tap. That was the invention of the year in nineteen ninety nine.

• 43:05Speaker 01

  Was it really?

• 43:06The Fat Electrician?

  You want to know what it beat out from second place?

• 43:08Speaker 01

  What?

• 43:09The Fat Electrician?

  The internet.

• 43:12Speaker 01

  No way. That is awesome. I still want to know why that helps you if you're low in iron. So so well, the doctors, the Guinness would be delivered with when the the uh the milkman would come around and they drop, they would drop off Guinness and milk and. The Guinness man? Yeah.

• 43:27The Fat Electrician?

  Mom's banging the Guinness man.

• 43:30Speaker 01

  I look a lot like the the the Guinness man. But uh but yeah, we uh they would pour Guinness uh on your on our on our oatmeal. And uh and then like I always remember like my like when we're sick. Never had that before. When we're sick, we would have whiskey, like hot water, whiskey and sugar and they'd wrap us up in a blanket. Kind of like a hot toddy? Hot toddy, but then we'd be like four years old and like. That's why they call it a hot toddy. It's a hot toddler. Literally wrap a hot towel around my head and give him alcohol. It's a hot toddler. There you go. He's so docile. But next time you have Guinness and you pour it, if the the proper times to drink, if you get like a quarter, right? And you hold the pint glass and if you, when you first pour it, you'll hit it, it'll have like a tung tung tung sound to it. And when it's ready to drink, it'll go tink tink tink, everything just sort of settles in it.

• 44:15Speaker 01

  So and one of the things I'll teach is like when you're over in Ireland, it when everybody's pint glass is about. Here, order the round, because everybody, every, you don't buy ever a drink for yourself. You buy for the table you're at. It's just very rude. If you have cigarettes, you throw them in the ta- in the middle of the table. Like, it's just a very, uh, community-based thing. And so if you see, sitting down at a table, you, you buy a round for everyone, but don't order one down here, because a proper pint of Guinness takes, uh, like, five or so minutes for it to settle, and pour it to thing. So you order a big thing, you don't want to break stride. So if you're the idiot at the table that doesn't know, and it's your round and you miss thing, then everybody's waiting. And then you're that guy. So, you sort of gauge it halfway through, everyone's there, and comes around and drinks it. If you have ten pints of Guinness, like, you're full, but there's less calories in

• 45:00Speaker 01

  a Guinness than there is in a Coors Light. What?

• 45:02The Fat Electrician?

  This gave me anxiety about drinking in Ireland.

• 45:05Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 45:06The Fat Electrician?

  I'm like, man, this is like...

• 45:07Speaker 03

  Help it off to read the long paragraph afterwards, my turn, Jesus. Oh my God. He's drinking so fast. Do I order now? What did AJ say? I'm gonna share the sound, it's just sounding expensive.

• 45:25Speaker 03

  Connor's ashing in the middle, is that rude? I don't remember.

• 45:28Speaker 01

  My, I remember taking my cousin to, we were in, in Mexico, he came to visit, and in Ireland, when you ask him how, like, how's, how's the, if it's a good time, you say, "How's the crack?" How's the what? So, "How's the crack?" So he would say, "How's the crack?" So if you're out on a night, we were in... Crack? Crack, like, crack, like, the crack? Very different question that way. Yeah, so, we were in Mexico, my cousin kept telling people... Downtown San Antonio, they ask the same question. "How's the crack? How's the crack?" And people that, like, people were looking at me like, "What?" And I'm like, "Dude, you can't say that, man, we're gonna throw it together." And so, of course, you have a few pints of me, "Hey, how you doing? How's the crack?" And then fucking, like, everyone would turn to you, it like, it's like a, it's a weird segue, it's like, everyone's having, like, tequila and something, my cousin would be randomly like, "How's the crack?" And everyone would stop and be like, "What the fuck is this guy talking about?" Like... I've heard Shaw and Dave say that before, I just, it's like, what's... How's the crack?

• 46:13Speaker 01

  What's the bullshit? Yeah, yeah, what's going on, yeah. What's cracking? What's shaking? Yeah, so what's cracking, but it's just like, but when someone says it late night at a club, or walking up to somewhere, "How's the crack?" He's saying to the, you know, anyone, did they teach, they, he would say it to everybody. So, uh, don't, yeah.

• 46:28The Fat Electrician?

  Me and Trout were just talking about Irishmen going to Mexico last night at three in the morning.

• 46:32Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 46:32Speaker 03

  Oh no.

• 46:33Speaker 01

  During the Spanish-American War?

• 46:35The Fat Electrician?

  Mm-hmm. What happened? Uh, there was a bunch of Irish people. This is a random conversation.

• 46:41Speaker 01

  No, this happened.

• 46:42Speaker 05

  Anything historical is actually not random. Because of him. You, you, you literally, am I correct in saying you literally have a degree in history?

• 46:50The Fat Electrician?

  No, I just read constantly.

• 46:52Speaker 05

  And he's got, he's got a intense historical knowledge.

• 46:56The Fat Electrician?

  Autism. Try to.

• 46:59The Fat Electrician?

  During the Mexican-American War, there was a bunch of Irish guys that came over and they basically got drafted to get their citizenship in exchange. And so they had entire like brigades of just straight up Irish dudes that were getting their citizenship and fighting in the Mexican-American War. No.

• 47:14Speaker 05

  Go ahead. There's a guy, what is his name? He's a famous gunfighter. He was one of them. He's my favorite, I gotta remember what his name is. Um, oh my, I'm gonna look it up.

• 47:25The Fat Electrician?

  You go ahead.

• 47:26Speaker 05

  But he, he, he got dra- or I don't, I think he volunteered actually for the American War. He was Irish and he became this like, I think it's.

• 47:33The Fat Electrician?

  I don't know.

• 47:34Speaker 05

  I'm gonna look it up.

• 47:34The Fat Electrician?

  Go ahead.

• 47:35Speaker 05

  Sorry. No, you guys go ahead.

• 47:36The Fat Electrician?

  Anyways, all these Irish dudes, uh, all these Irish dudes were, uh, in a unit together. It's like they're all from Ireland getting their American citizenship or whatever. And they go down and start fighting the Mexicans. And after a little while, they're like.

• 47:48Speaker 05

  Wait, is this history or?

• 47:50The Fat Electrician?

  No, this is real life.

• 47:51Speaker 05

  The great American past. Oh, no, I'm sorry. I didn't know if this was current or historical.

• 48:00The Fat Electrician?

  I got confused. I was like, wait a minute, are we talking about today? History, Irish people.

• 48:04Speaker 05

  This is the last Thursday. Yeah. I still want you to tell your Fortnite.

• 48:08The Fat Electrician?

  All, all these Irish dudes get over there and they're like.

• 48:12The Fat Electrician?

  You guys are Catholic too? Fuck, tortillas are awesome. They literally ended up switching sides and started fighting for Mexico. Oh, you see. In the Mexican-American War and there was like a huge Irish population in Mexico because of it. Actually, there is, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's why. Holy shit. What year is this? Mexican American War.

• 48:30Speaker 04

  It's around the Civil War.

• 48:33Speaker 01

  Oh, wow.

• 48:35Speaker 06

  It was, I mean, Robert E. Lee, I think, was a Colonel in the American military during that, the Mexican American War.

• 48:41Speaker 04

  It's, it's just after the Civil War, isn't it?

• 48:43Speaker 06

  It was just before.

• 48:44Speaker 04

  Oh, just before.

• 48:44Speaker 06

  Yeah. Like, late 40s, early 50s?

• 48:47The Fat Electrician?

  I think so.

• 48:48Speaker 06

  Something like that.

• 48:48Speaker 04

  I'm gonna find that dude's story.

• 48:50Speaker 01

  I wonder if there's anybody named like Jesus O'Neill down there or something like that.

• 48:58Speaker 01

  Patrick Rodriguez.

• 49:00Speaker 03

  Mario O'Brien.

• 49:02Speaker 01

  I got Mexican gingers.

• 49:05Speaker 01

  Oh, actually, well, Canelo. Is that it? There's it.

• 49:09Speaker 06

  Oh, yeah.

• 49:09Speaker 04

  Canelo, literally.

• 49:12The Fat Electrician?

  So, Brandon wants me to tell you my conspiracy theory.

• 49:15Speaker 04

  We're here.

• 49:15The Fat Electrician?

  So you know how, like, a lot of military games were actually, like, kind of secretly, covertly aided by the government for, like, making the army seem cool, or like, we're gonna make ARMA so they know damn near how to pilot a drone out of the gate when they get to training, shit like that?

• 49:30Speaker 04

  They made an entire, dude, when I enlisted, there was an entire first, uh, the Army game.

• 49:35The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, exactly. So, like, I have a theory. I think Fortnite was invented for ICE.

• 49:41Speaker 03

  Please elaborate.

• 49:43The Fat Electrician?

  And ICE busts in to, like, deport a bunch of Mexicans and they just start building structures really fast so you can't get to them.

• 49:50Speaker 03

  They want to be prepared.

• 49:54The Fat Electrician?

  My people.

• 49:54Speaker 03

  You gotta know how to combat that.

• 49:57Speaker 03

  Just picturing my people. We're here.

• 50:02The Fat Electrician?

  How is that physically possible? Are you harboring enemies of the states beneath the floorboards? This, or did, did the enemies of the state just make this fucking house?

• 50:13Speaker 06

  If they were under the floorboard, you'd fucking know.

• 50:19Speaker 03

  You know that Putin had, like, the world class, or not world class, but like, the highest category of Russian ARMA 3 players simulate the invasion of Ukraine.

• 50:30Speaker 04

  I did hear about that, I think.

• 50:32Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 50:32Speaker 04

  Oh, I did not know that.

• 50:34Speaker 03

  Yeah, he had.

• 50:34The Fat Electrician?

  How'd that go?

• 50:37Speaker 03

  Not according to plan.

• 50:40Speaker 06

  Turns out expensive.

• 50:43The Fat Electrician?

  What do you mean you want me to program tanks from World War II in the modern warfare game?

• 50:48Speaker 06

  I remember everybody was just like, it's not gonna happen. It's not gonna happen. Oh, Russia's going into Ukraine. It's not gonna happen. We saw the headline, they're like, Russia just moved up a shitload of blood reserves to the Ukrainian border. Of like blood donation, like blood bags like that. We're like, ooh, that's, it's probably gonna happen. And it was like a couple of days after that.

• 51:11Speaker 01

  Did you see that? There was a headline I saw yesterday where, uh, Zelensky was saying that he, they've only received 78 million of the hundred. Oh, sorry. 78 billion of the 178 billion that we said he did. They don't know where they never received.

• 51:26The Fat Electrician?

  Oh yeah, they're casually missing 58% of it.

• 51:28Speaker 01

  Yeah, they're missing a hundred million. They don't, a hundred billion dollars.

• 51:32Speaker 06

  It's also a crazy way of saying thank you.

• 51:34Speaker 01

  Yeah, I was just like, what?

• 51:35The Fat Electrician?

  Bad day to be a twin tower.

• 51:38Speaker 01

  Like, I was like, what?

• 51:40Speaker 04

  Government accidentally gives me.

• 51:48Speaker 04

  Government can accidentally give me 50%. I'm like, you know what? Thank you.

• 51:52Speaker 01

  That is crazy.

• 51:54Speaker 06

  It was during the Biden administration, at some point they said like, oh yeah, well, we accidentally gave Ukraine 5 billion more than we meant to. It's like.

• 52:01Speaker 01

  But you knocked you to get it back or like?

• 52:04Speaker 06

  I mean, dude, anyone who's dealt with the IRS, it's like, you know, you're like, hey, you guys, it's like, it. The, the government waste is, is, it's unfathomable. It's like, it's like the military.

• 52:17Speaker 04

  Tyler, what would you know about government?

• 52:20Speaker 06

  That's the thing. It's like, I always tell people, I'm like, dude, look, you can say what you want, but I work for the government. Like, I know how absolutely insane it is. I've flown on planes with millions of dollars of cash that were just freaking.

• 52:34Speaker 04

  They hand out.

• 52:35Speaker 06

  That going where? I have no idea. It's crazy to me. And. Oh, yeah. It's dude, it's, it's, it's.

• 52:42Speaker 05

  The stuff I

• 52:43Speaker 01

  So that episode that we did with the

• 52:46Speaker 05

  Yeah, I said it when we were on the plane. I said, remember I said, I was like, I was like, I never flew with this much money, but remember we were talking, you and I were talking about, but my point being is just what I saw personally, not what I've heard or heard secondhand, let alone thirdhand, just what I've seen personally in like Afghanistan and Iraq, it's the craziest, it's just, we hand out money like it's water. It's crazy, crazy, crazy. And I mean, it's, it's absolutely ridiculous.

• 53:17Speaker 05

  It's absolutely ridiculous. And, uh, you know, I am very happy with, you know, somebody coming in, uh, to, you know, reduce the, just the absolute waste because it's taxpayer money and that's not okay.

• 53:30Speaker 06

  Somebody that's had to actually run a business and make a profit for a couple decades and know how to do it, that'd be cool.

• 53:37The Fat Electrician?

  If I have to hear one more person that can't spell the word tariff have an emotional crisis about tariffs, I'm gonna lose my mind.

• 53:45Speaker 06

  But whatever will we do without Canada or Mexico, Nick?

• 53:50Speaker 05

  Somebody replied to my fucking tweet about the tariff thing. I was just like, man, it feels like Trudeau's just doing as much damage as he can before he leaves. Somebody's like, I don't want to be too harsh with my words here, but I just, I feel like, uh, if we keep going this way with American-Canadian relations, we won't be there when you need us. And I'm just like, oh no. Not that we haven't been on the same side on a bunch of stuff, but like, need is a strong word.

• 54:18Speaker 06

  Was he speaking from the Canadian perspective?

• 54:20Speaker 05

  Yes.

• 54:21Speaker 06

  Yeah. Oh, that changes things.

• 54:23Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 54:24Speaker 05

  Like

• 54:24Speaker 01

  No Mexicans are pissed. Yeah, with Trudeau and, and, and Canada's changed like so, so much. I used to love going back to Vancouver, working there, doing all stuff, but like even just like Just to see. Vancouver, just for a reference, Vancouver's fucking wild. If you live there, like, cost of living is insane. It's one, it's the most expensive city in the world. It used to be so beautiful. Oh, my god. People cannot get into the market. Young people cannot buy houses. They can't, they can't, the rent is, like, everything about it is, so is it the price to go, when you go film there, and just to go get like, you always know, because you have your per diem, what they give you when you show up to film, and you'll go, go stock up the fridge, and you will

• 55:05Speaker 01

  go to like a regular, like, they have a Safeway up there. You'll go to a regular Safeway, which is like a, uh, HGB, yeah, yeah. One pack of cigarettes. Yeah. Oh, fuck, I'm out of money. For a hundred bucks Canadian, you will get maybe five items, tops, like, and, and it's not good. And beer markup is, like, you're paying almost triple even for like booze.

• 55:24Speaker 05

  I mean, I, I, I remember being a kid, and like, buying, yeah, books, I'll just give you an example. You buy a book, or a toy, you know, at least when I was younger, it was always like this. Everything you buy had an actual price tag on it, right? And on the price tag was cost, and then Canadian. I just remember being a kid and being like, well, I'm glad I don't live there. Like, everything's 20% more. Like, oh, wow.

• 55:49Speaker 01

  Imagine having to pay in CAD.

• 55:54Speaker 01

  And the sad thing is, like, Canadians are awesome. They're great people. They're like, they love their sport. They love their hockey. They, they just, they're very patriotic people, but it's, it's been really sad just to see what, like, bad management can do in there, and just how that there's no way that they can get out of the position that they're in.

• 56:12The Fat Electrician?

  Every time I get upset with Canada, I see immediate footage of farmers from Canada blowing manure onto government buildings. I'm like, never mind, I have

• 56:25Speaker 01

  Yeah, the trucker thing was bad. That was crazy. Like, those guys, like, the Canadians are awesome. They're awesome. A, a, and, and they, that, that whole thing, what, what they ended up doing to the truckers after, where they were like freezing their bank accounts and stuff. That was just like such overreach. I mean, Trudeau is on tape saying, when somebody asks, like, what's one of your favorite countries? And he says China. He says that on an interview. Like, you're like, what? How can, why would anybody? Compare Canada, you know.

• 56:51Speaker 06

  I feel like it's the same as the United States where like you have people in the rural Canadians are fucking dope.

• 56:57Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah.

• 56:57Speaker 01

  Awesome.

• 56:58Speaker 06

  And then you get people that live in the fake world that is a big city.

• 57:01Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 57:01Speaker 06

  And they think they know how the world works. It's like, homie, you live in a fucking illusion.

• 57:04Speaker 05

  How he feels about Canada is exactly the way I feel about California. You know, I grew up in California. I was born and raised in California, you know, and, you know, California in the eighties was, and the nineties for that.

• 57:16Speaker 01

  Yeah, in the early two thousands.

• 57:17Speaker 05

  Fucking rad, dude. California was awesome. The California I grew up in, I grew up in Bakersfield though, by the way. Bakersfield, California is basically if Bakersfield, California switched places with Austin, Texas, the United States would make sense. More sense because it's true.

• 57:34Speaker 06

  You mean Little LA?

• 57:35Speaker 05

  Dude, Bakersfield, Bakersfield is the country music capital other than Nashville. So it's like Bakersfield, Buck Owens, Dwight Yoakam, all those things. So it's like, Bakersfield was like Texas and California. The oil industry was one of the main reasons why. But, you know, I used to go to the drug, Long's drugstore and there was a pistol counter from here to the wall. It was huge, you know, it was just a very different place and just seeing what California has become, you know, in the last 20 years is just, it's sad. It's honestly sad.

• 58:07Speaker 01

  Yeah, I mean, we left, we left five years ago, four, four and a half, five years ago and just to see what like, and it, I like California and, and that, just that whole Los Angeles. It's such great memories for me because it gave me the start of my career. I remember I have so many moments in my life that were life-changing moments as a young man in that area. And then just when you go back, because even when we're filming, when I flew back the last couple of seasons and just to see, because you'd get an Airbnb or whatever it is and you would just, and there wasn't, there was so many years, like when I was living out of my car, I didn't feel, I didn't feel like. Unsafe.

• 58:45Speaker 01

  Unsafe. There you feel unsafe, like at all times. There's just like an edge that comes over you where you're like.

• 58:53Speaker 05

  Dude, we used to film, you know, a lot of people would, don't know this, but I'll tell you it's, it's the fact. We filmed a third, which is a lot. We filmed a hundred and thirty something episodes of SEAL Team. Debatably, a third of those were filmed in downtown L.A., which you wouldn't expect, but we filmed about a third of those in downtown L.A. And dude, we filmed in some bad areas. Like we filmed in an alley where they like throwing shit on us.

• 59:19Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah.

• 59:20Speaker 03

  Literal humans.

• 59:21Speaker 05

  It was, it was crazy. I mean, we, we've seen quite a lot of things, but dude, we'd film in areas that, you know, security would have to escort you, you know, to the car. It was that bad. And dude, downtown was just out of control.

• 59:33Speaker 01

  We had, we had a guy in a tent. I remember Max and I were in a tent. He's just pounding his bishop.

• 59:39Speaker 05

  Good shit.

• 59:41Speaker 01

  In his tent and we're.

• 59:42Speaker 04

  Allen is bishop.

• 59:44Speaker 05

  And he's like, I'm calling him from that one out.

• 59:46Speaker 01

  He's like, we opened each other.

• 59:47Speaker 03

  Usually it's the other way around.

• 59:48Speaker 01

  And he's in a blue tent on the other side of the gate and he's just sitting there. And I'm like, I'm like, Max, is that, is that like a Fanniger or something? He's on some drugs and he's just like.

• 59:56Speaker 05

  I mean, Max is a good looking guy.

• 59:58Speaker 01

  He's a good looking dude. I get it. I get it. I get it.

• 1:00:01Speaker 05

  With you on film going for the first time to L.A.

• 1:00:08Speaker 04

  Where's cameras in the unsub house?

• 1:00:10Speaker 05

  Pounding of the bishop.

• 1:00:11Speaker 03

  It's a different show.

• 1:00:12Speaker 04

  Going to L.A. for the first time and your reactions are like Hunter Street and downtown L.A.

• 1:00:17Speaker 03

  It's a fucking dump, man.

• 1:00:19Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah. It was never, it was never like that.

• 1:00:21Speaker 04

  That's one street from, um, what's the?

• 1:00:24Speaker 01

  Rodeo or, uh.

• 1:00:25Speaker 05

  Uh, oh, uh, uh.

• 1:00:27Speaker 01

  Skid Row.

• 1:00:28Speaker 05

  Skid Row.

• 1:00:28Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:00:29Speaker 05

  And not the eighties band.

• 1:00:31Speaker 04

  No.

• 1:00:31Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:00:32Speaker 05

  Much better.

• 1:00:33Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:00:33Speaker 04

  Great band.

• 1:00:35Speaker 05

  Eighteen Life, classic.

• 1:00:36Speaker 03

  Dog eating a rat. It was, yeah, people. Homeless guy eating the dog. The zombies, the fucking fentanyl zombies.

• 1:00:44Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah. But you see what happened in San Francisco? Like, have you guys been to San Francisco before?

• 1:00:49Speaker 04

  We have, but I'm not going back.

• 1:00:51Speaker 03

  I've been to two months.

• 1:00:53Speaker 01

  I shot a series up in San Francisco and it was terrifying. It like, it looked like, like it did like, it just looked like an old video game that you play in these, these, you know, like.

• 1:01:04Speaker 04

  Narc.

• 1:01:05Speaker 05

  Dude, oh my god.

• 1:01:06Speaker 04

  Classic dude.

• 1:01:09Speaker 04

  All the needles falling out of the person.

• 1:01:12Speaker 05

  Dude, you gotta get narc it. Eli, you need narc as an arcade game in here.

• 1:01:21Speaker 05

  You like shoot them and the freaking money and drugs are falling out of them.

• 1:01:28Speaker 01

  I think there's an actual app that they have where where people have actually shit and you can. Yeah, you can track.

• 1:01:37Speaker 01

  And it's literally like it's glowing. It's just one big pile of like dots where people.

• 1:01:42Speaker 06

  But it was, we we took Cody's girlfriend to uh to LA because we did like a movie premiere like I don't know six months ago or some shit like that. And she thought we were kidding, but it's like we were in LA walking the street for maybe 10 minutes where it's like, oh, first human.

• 1:01:56Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:01:57Speaker 06

  And she's just like, no, no, we weren't exaggerating. It's literally that bad.

• 1:02:01Speaker 05

  Dude, everything changed. I mean, look, it was on a decline, but dude, covid is when everything.

• 1:02:05Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:02:06Speaker 05

  Hard, hard change. I mean, it changed overnight, you know?

• 1:02:09Speaker 04

  Most small mom and pops shut down. It was like 70%.

• 1:02:12Speaker 01

  I had, we had a bunch of friends that lost like like generational restaurants that were just gone within.

• 1:02:18Speaker 05

  But I mean, the homeless stuff was out of control. But again, it wasn't that, you know, suddenly the restaurant owners are on the street. It was that what they were tolerating. And I'll tell you the the craziest thing, and again, people can say whatever they want. I was there. I saw it.

• 1:02:32Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:02:32Speaker 05

  I was there when they changed. I think you had already left. I was there when they changed the law to allow the under $1,000.

• 1:02:39Speaker 01

  Oh, yes.

• 1:02:40Speaker 05

  I was there.

• 1:02:41Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:02:41Speaker 05

  And I think it was in Albertson's. Don't quote me on that, but I think it was in Albertson's in uh in um. What was the name of the area I lived in? Studio City. So it was in Albertson's in Studio City on the corner of Ventura and.

• 1:02:56Speaker 06

  Like a grocery store?

• 1:02:57Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, it's it's Safeway, same.

• 1:03:02Speaker 05

  Super cheap, not, you know, not high end. It's just a normal grocery store. So they just changed the law. I was there and again, I'm not exaggerating what I'm about to say. Dude, you just see person after person come in, grab a handful of food and just.

• 1:03:15Speaker 01

  Not even run, just walk.

• 1:03:16Speaker 05

  Not do not run, not even be, I mean chill as a cucumber, grab a freaking, grab a thing of food and just walk out. And I remember.

• 1:03:54Speaker 05

  Seeing it for the first time and being like,

• 1:03:58Speaker 05

  you know, wait, what? You know, like, my brain's processing. And then I figure out what it is. And then I started getting like, dude. And again, I wanted to like hurt them. You know what I mean? But then you'll get arrested. Then you'll get arrested. And it was like this weird struggle that I had where I wanted to do them physical harm, which, by the way, I know is not the correct re, you know, action to somebody just stealing food. But it's fair to be angry when you live your whole life following the rules and then you see somebody brazenly break it with no consequences. Yeah, I mean, honestly, if they would have grabbed it and like did some effort running, I'd be like, okay.

• 1:04:33Speaker 04

  Pretend like it's not okay.

• 1:04:35Speaker 05

  Pretend like it's not okay, but just to.

• 1:04:40Speaker 04

  Give me that at least.

• 1:04:43Speaker 05

  You're gonna become a vigilante riding the New York subway? I do, and I just, it was really frustrating. And what's crazy is at the time, they had like one security guard. And then over time, you know, within six months, they had six. You know, because they couldn't, you couldn't as a person stop. And a guy tried to pass this law in California, which, to be fair, I do understand what his thing was. He didn't want, it was a law which got a lot of shit, but I actually agree with the guy's intent, and even though it was a horrible idea. But his intent was to pass a law so that.

• 1:05:19Speaker 05

  Uh, bosses wouldn't force employees that weren't security people to stop theft. Which made it, it was like, but he went about it in a very stupid way, which was it made it like illegal for non-security people to stop theft, which was a horrible idea. But again, I, I do, uh, when stupid, you know, politicians, you know, I look at the intent.

• 1:05:40Speaker 06

  There's none of those.

• 1:05:41Speaker 05

  Yeah, I'm like, okay.

• 1:05:44Speaker 05

  What a hot take. So that one, I'm like, okay, I see the intent, you know, it's, it wasn't a ridiculous intent, but it's ridiculous in how it's gonna freaking.

• 1:05:53Speaker 06

  Famously, road to heaven paved with good intentions.

• 1:05:56Speaker 05

  Exactly, exactly. And so, you know, it's just like, dude, my, you know, in the past, I used to, uh, uh, in the early two thousands, I, I used to have to go to Portland. Dude, Portland used to be a beautiful.

• 1:06:09Speaker 01

  Amazing.

• 1:06:09Speaker 05

  Beautiful city. Oh dude, it's done.

• 1:06:12Speaker 01

  Great, Oregon County Fair?

• 1:06:14Speaker 04

  I've not since two thousand and ten was the last time I was in Portland.

• 1:06:18Speaker 05

  Yeah, it's been a long ass time.

• 1:06:19Speaker 01

  Oregon is.

• 1:06:20Speaker 05

  We'll not go. It was twenty twenty, done.

• 1:06:22Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah, you can't.

• 1:06:23Speaker 05

  Uh, infected with homeless.

• 1:06:24Speaker 06

  Well, I mean, during the summer of love, I remember a lot of that was like based out of Portland, like a lot of the, the people that were throwing.

• 1:06:30Speaker 01

  They, they went, well, they would, they would go in and they would just find a house that somebody wasn't in. And they would just take it and they wouldn't, and the people would come back and like, you can, and they couldn't get them out of the house. They would just move in and there was nothing they could do to get them out of the house. I was like, what?

• 1:06:46Speaker 04

  Damn it, now I need, what is that, guys? I will say it was one of the, it was a Twitch channel that popped off, I forget, he's an Asian dude and a squatter tried to take over his house. Bro, that was one of the most hilarious things I have ever seen, cause she wouldn't move out. And he was like, okay, fine. He just invites Twitch people to come. He sets up alarms, so if you do donations or subscribe, Blair's music. To horror room, because he's, he's like, fine, we'll all live here.

• 1:07:14Speaker 05

  Because he legally evicted her.

• 1:07:16Speaker 04

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 1:07:17Speaker 05

  So it's like, oh, well, let's have fun with it.

• 1:07:18Speaker 04

  So he's calling the cops and he's like, I just gotta walk this floor. And he's just hitting her door with the mop. The cops show up, they're like, are you? He's like, I was just, she pushed something under the door. I was just cleaning my house. And the cops are like, God. Fair enough. Dude, they would not touch it.

• 1:07:36Speaker 04

  But she's the one that would call the cops 12 times a day.

• 1:07:38Speaker 05

  You know, the cops thought it was hilarious.

• 1:07:40Speaker 04

  Oh, yeah, yeah. They would show up every day. Hundred, that dude made thousands of dollars because then it started bringing in Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Hundreds of thousands of views and donations on the minute. That is hilarious.

• 1:07:51Speaker 05

  That is a dude taking lemons and making lemonade right there. Good on you.

• 1:07:56Speaker 04

  Got millions of views.

• 1:07:58Speaker 05

  It's, I will, I will rent out property in California because of the, the, the laws are so disproportionately weighted to the, uh,

• 1:08:08Speaker 01

  Well, it just, it doesn't make, it doesn't make sense. We live across in Redondo Beach, right across from the Redondo Beach Police Department. And because of the show, the, the cops had recognized.

• 1:08:19Speaker 05

  Literally across the street.

• 1:08:20Speaker 01

  Like, it was literally right there. It was right there.

• 1:08:22Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:08:23Speaker 01

  And so I became good buddies with a lot of cops and there, there was this law that was passed. It was like no bail, no jail. So they were arresting the same, the, the.

• 1:08:34Speaker 04

  Hold the fuck, like, you don't have to post.

• 1:08:36Speaker 05

  No bail usually means jail.

• 1:08:39Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:08:39Speaker 04

  So if you can't have bail, you're out?

• 1:08:41Speaker 01

  No, you just, you would, you'd, you'd basically go in, you didn't have to, they'd take you down the thing, they'd.

• 1:08:45Speaker 05

  Oh, you don't need to post bail, nor are you going to jail.

• 1:08:48Speaker 01

  They would, they'd catch a guy getting arrested.

• 1:08:50Speaker 05

  It's basically catch and release.

• 1:08:52Speaker 01

  They'd bring him down to the thing, they'd take his picture, let him out. And four hours later, the same cop is picking up and the same dude again, breaking into another house.

• 1:08:58Speaker 05

  So, so.

• 1:08:58Speaker 01

  He'd arrest him like four times a night.

• 1:09:00Speaker 05

  If, if you want to see some fun videos, so I live currently.

• 1:09:03Speaker 01

  That's insanity.

• 1:09:03Speaker 05

  I live currently in Orange County.

• 1:09:06Speaker 01

  Look it up, it's insanity.

• 1:09:07Speaker 05

  It's, it's called catch and release. So if you want to look up, that's catch and release. That's catch and release.

• 1:09:14Speaker 04

  I'm more confused and I'm very angry, but I'm more confused than anything.

• 1:09:18Speaker 01

  The cops would say, we're so frustrated because we're literally picking up the same person. And when we're, they're taking the picture, they flip.

• 1:09:24Speaker 05

  off the camera. It's the same thing on the southern border right now, like, like, well, hopefully not anymore. But

• 1:09:30Speaker 01

  A second ago.

• 1:09:31Speaker 05

  You just saw it all the time. Like, I talked to a lot of those dudes.

• 1:09:34Speaker 04

  Rocco on the show talked about like Vincent Vargas on the show was like, yeah, dude, yeah. Vincent Rocco.

• 1:09:40Speaker 01

  His book is amazing.

• 1:09:41Speaker 04

  Dude, he would say he was like, you, what were the rules? You can't touch them. And if they cross you, you can't touch them. And then it's a, it's, you get in trouble if you.

• 1:09:49Speaker 05

  Cause if you touch him and then they, they get, they leave your custody or they go back or whatever, that's a federal investigation.

• 1:09:54Speaker 04

  So they let them pass and Rocco's like, yeah, we're literally just like.

• 1:09:58Speaker 01

  He's a great dude.

• 1:09:59Speaker 04

  Oh, I love him.

• 1:10:01Speaker 01

  He's in Texas. Yeah. Isn't he?

• 1:10:02Speaker 04

  Oh, he's moving.

• 1:10:03Speaker 05

  Well, he used to be border patrol. That's, you know, dude, when, when we were in Columbia, this is a true story. When we were in Columbia filming, which was in spring, right? April. Yeah, April. Um, it just so happened, which like, what are the odds? We're in, we're in Columbia filming and it just so, I start seeing these dudes and I'm like, like, you know, same recognize same. Like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, these aren't normal gringos. I'm like, these are federales, right? And I just start seeing these guys. I'm like, dude, these guys are in government. You know, you know what I mean? I could just tell. So we finally approached him. Turns out that while we happened to be in Columbia, the whole cast is at this hotel, they're having this, and I mean, we're talking FBI, DEA, agency, every three letter agency, NSA.

• 1:10:48Speaker 05

  The guys that were there at Jan 6. Are, are, they're all there.

• 1:10:55Speaker 05

  They're all there. Uh, who said that? They're having a, uh, what's it called? They're having a conference to basically try and figure out what to do with the border. And this is in, again, this is, this is in April. So it's like, there's stuff on the news, but like, no one knows, you know, it hadn't really all come out yet. And I just went up to him. I was like, hey dudes, you know, I talked to a couple of guys. Yeah. And I started talking to him like, hey, like no shit, what's going on right now? Like legitimately. And they're like, bro, like this is what's, forget all the politics and everything. This is what is happening. And basically they're like, All the and it was oh sorry let me be clear we're in Colombia we're not in Mexico we're

• 1:11:35Speaker 05

  in Colombia and what it was because the through the Colombian channel and through everything it was the cartels were bringing all this not just drugs but actual terrorists through and that's what the conference was was trying to figure out a solution And then Venezuela gangs would come through And yeah then and there was probably also talking about the Venezuelan gangs at that time you know so it was and he was just like this is what's happening and so I was like okay that's you know it's officially officially going on not unofficially

• 1:12:04Speaker 06

  It's weird too how much like you do not hear about it in mainstream news but like the amount of people that you are for sure confirmed terrorists caught on the border

• 1:12:11Speaker 05

  Yeah and that's what

• 1:12:13Speaker 06

  Never makes anything

• 1:12:14Speaker 05

  And that's what they told me in April so like I knew then from you know the horse's mouth they're like this is what is actually happening it's not being reported you know here's why blah blah blah and it was it was really interesting

• 1:12:25Speaker 04

  It's eye opening on how much is not

• 1:12:27Speaker 01

  Oh dude You know how most like government people like were like FBR whatever they you always downplay like oh it's not that bad or whatever this dude point blank was like it's so bad right now

• 1:12:39Speaker 05

  Yeah yeah yeah

• 1:12:40Speaker 01

  Like he I was like oh when somebody says it

• 1:12:41Speaker 05

  And we weren't talking like politics we were just talking you know bros you know

• 1:12:45Speaker 01

  Yeah it was uh

• 1:12:46Speaker 05

  Let me tell you an FBI story by the way so I don't think I told this one last time

• 1:12:51Speaker 04

  No I didn't even know part of this of your life

• 1:12:54Speaker 05

  So I happened to be Tyler has a lot of different I had a lot of different stories so I happened to be

• 1:13:00Speaker 04

  Tyler was just a regular infantry dude

• 1:13:02Speaker 05

  Crazy

• 1:13:03Speaker 06

  With a CQB AT4

• 1:13:05Speaker 05

  No so I have one of those

• 1:13:07Speaker 06

  Regular infantry

• 1:13:08Speaker 05

  Exactly I happened to be at the FBI academy and for I don't know like I don't know is there a decent amount of time like three weeks uh 20

• 1:13:22Speaker 04

  Five, just hanging out. So this is before. This is dirty.

• 1:13:28Speaker 05

  I was doing some training stuff there. Not, not, not secrets. Big town. I was training. It's a long, it's not, nothing. I was on vacation. Nothing, nothing, nothing secret or ninja. It was just, it's a long explanation to explain it. And so anyways, I was there at the FBI academy and they had a graduation happening at the FBI academy. So I go to the FBI academy, or I go to the, um, I was at the academy and they're doing, I forget why I was there, but it was at night and it's like they had their graduation. And now it's literally, they're like after party for the, all these new FBI agents.

• 1:14:13Speaker 05

  And there's like, you know, 50 of them, I don't know. And dude, they're doing karaoke. And like, I just sat there and they're like getting hammered and doing FBI agent karaoke, all brand new agents. And I'm just like watching them get up and do karaoke and I'm like, I'm never gonna be able to take the FBI seriously again. I'm just watching them all hammered, like fucking slobbering all over each other. My graduation was. I'm like, what?

• 1:14:42Speaker 03

  Specifically is FBI agent karaoke.

• 1:14:46Speaker 05

  I named them songs. I remember the songs. I just remember seeing like all these like.

• 1:14:54Speaker 05

  I just remember like, I'm like, my, my image of the agency is like forever ruined by watching these just drunk agents slobbering all over them.

• 1:15:02Speaker 06

  It was like 10 years ago, you guys remember that video of the guy from the wedding reception? The FBI agent that did the backflip and his gun falls out?

• 1:15:09Speaker 05

  Oh yeah, it goes off.

• 1:15:10Speaker 06

  And then he goes to grab it and accidentally fires.

• 1:15:12Speaker 04

  I forgot about that.

• 1:15:13Speaker 06

  Oh man.

• 1:15:14Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:15:14Speaker 04

  Yeah, I forgot about that.

• 1:15:15Speaker 05

  Yeah, he got in trouble.

• 1:15:16Speaker 06

  Oh, I would assume so.

• 1:15:19The Fat Electrician?

  It was a P320, it wasn't his fault.

• 1:15:23Speaker 05

  They do that on their own. I'll tell you another FBI story, because it's really funny. I think, I don't think I told this last time, but this is a true FBI story.

• 1:15:30Speaker 04

  There's a lot of type stories.

• 1:15:32Speaker 05

  Well, this one's great. So I was, I was with a good buddy of mine, Jack Osborne, and I was a guardian.

• 1:15:38Speaker 04

  We just talked about him.

• 1:15:39Speaker 05

  We were just talking about Jack. Jack's a great dude.

• 1:15:41Speaker 04

  Literally on.

• 1:15:42Speaker 05

  Like two hours ago.

• 1:15:43Speaker 04

  Two hours ago, because Jack texted Demo that he wanted Demo to wish.

• 1:15:51Speaker 05

  Happy birthday to his dad.

• 1:15:52Speaker 04

  To Ozzy Osbourne. And so Demo was like, oh, got it. And they stacked up pallets of water and Demo ran through it. He's like, yeah, we sent it. And then 10 minutes later, Ozzy sent a video back. Ozzy sent a video back. He's like, fuck it, whatever.

• 1:16:05Speaker 05

  Dude, Ozzy's a maniac. Like. You're gonna tell the Mars Rover thing. Oh, okay. Yeah, I will tell that story. What the?

• 1:16:14Speaker 05

  Let me tell you an FBI agent story. I'll tell about my friend Ozzy Osbourne. That involves an astronaut.

• 1:16:23Speaker 05

  I'll tell them, I'll tell them both quickly. So. No, take your time. Please elaborate in detail. I don't know if you've looked at the duration, the watch time of this podcast so far, but we got time.

• 1:16:37Speaker 05

  So Jack's like, hey dude, and I'd been friends with Jack. Actually, Jack and I were roommates. I moved into his guest house for like, I don't know, a year and a half and lived at his guest house. Great, great, great guy. A great shooter too. Great guy. Great guy. I mean, dude, Jack can tell you some stories. I mean, Jack was, you know, partying at like 14 years old on Sunset with Paris Hilton and dude, he's got some crazy stories. He put it this way, he was in rehab at 18.

• 1:17:03Speaker 05

  Literally in rehab at 18. But um, okay, so Jack's like, hey dude, you wanna, you wanna come, you know, guard Ozzy or, you know, my dad and I for the show that they were doing called The World Detour, which I don't know if you ever saw it. It was a great show on Nat Geo, I believe. Don't quote me on it. Maybe Discovery, I don't remember. And basically it was just them doing, it's just Jack and Ozzy driving around, basically doing.

• 1:17:27Speaker 05

  Learning history and kind of doing cool stuff. I don't know how to describe it. And Ozzy, by the way, Ozzy is a huge military history fanatic, by the way. Like Ozzy loves military history. I remember showing up one time, Ozzy opens the door and he's like, "I'm watching Vietnam in HD." That's a good verse.

• 1:17:49Speaker 07

  Text, pull up text.

• 1:17:50Speaker 05

  He's like, "I'm watching Vietnam in HD." And we go inside and Jack and I watch freaking Vietnam in HD for like four hours with Ozzy. And like, he knew his stuff. Anyways, so I was like, "Sure dude, I'll come." And, and you know, I was doing bodyguarding. I'd come too.

• 1:18:09Speaker 05

  I'm bodyguarding Jack, dude.

• 1:18:15Speaker 05

  So, you should, you should absolutely have Jack on the show. He can tell you stories.

• 1:18:19Speaker 04

  A hundred percent.

• 1:18:20Speaker 05

  Blow your mind up.

• 1:18:21Speaker 04

  Jack and Ozzy, more than welcome on.

• 1:18:23Speaker 05

  A white Sabbath.

• 1:18:25Speaker 05

  So, um, so basically freaking, I'll tell the Mars one because it's pretty crazy. So, the guy who ran- Stop, just go. What's it called? Houston, Houston, we have a problem. NASA. The guy who ran NASA at Houston, I guess was a huge Black Sabbath fan. So somehow they got in contact. I thought you were gonna say Nazi.

• 1:18:49Speaker 06

  Operation Paperclip was a mother- That's more on the covert.

• 1:18:54Speaker 06

  Then your names, uh, working convention.

• 1:18:58Speaker 05

  So he invites Ozzy and Jack to Houston, to the NASA, you know, whatever the space center. I think it's called the NASA Space Center down there. Basically carte blanche, dude, do whatever you want and film it. So they do all kinds of stuff. We got a great tour. Jack and I literally talked to an astronaut for like two hours. It was awesome. It was a great, I learned a lot. Well, one of the things they had Ozzy do was drive the Mars rover. And I'm not joking. They put Ozzy Osbourne in control of the Mars rover.

• 1:19:28Speaker 06

  On Mars?

• 1:19:29Speaker 05

  No, sort of. He was. Oh, no, no, it's here, right?

• 1:19:33Speaker 06

  Okay, I didn't know if it was just like remotely piloting.

• 1:19:35Speaker 05

  No, no, no.

• 1:19:41Speaker 05

  Dude, if you say that, you're joking right now, but you're not.

• 1:19:45Speaker 03

  You're a moron.

• 1:19:47Speaker 05

  It's called, I believe it was called the Mars rover. If it wasn't, then. That's what. Yeah, but it's this vehicle built for Mars. It's not a, it's a drivable. It's actually more like, and we can look it up on the episode or you guys can, but it's basically the Mars truck. It was a truck designed for Mars when humans are there. Oh. And they basically. So not like the curiosity. No, no, no, not curiosity. I think they called it the Mars rover. You did it and drive it. Yeah, but it's actually like an SUV, Mars SUV. I forget what the name was. And they basically had built, you know, in outside, they'd built this, you know, four football field sized area that had red dust and rocks and it looks like Mars. And obviously, you know, they built it. So they put Ozzy in there. Now, the best part is I'm, I'm staying, I'm not in the vehicle.

• 1:20:31Speaker 05

  In the vehicle is like the guy who knew the vehicle the best, Ozzy and Jack, right? They're all mic'd up. We're, you know, 200 yards away. And they said they could, it could go over anything. And I'm standing with like six engineer, straight up nerds from NASA, right? That like built the thing and the producer and you know, a couple of other people and we're listening, we can hear everything. And it's like, um, yeah, so this vehicle is incapable of getting stuck. Right? And the business, we call this bullshit.

• 1:21:02Speaker 05

  And that's the thing is this whole sequence was like it was planned. I was there. Dude, this sequence was not planned. They were like, it's, it's, it's like the unsinkable Molly Brown. This, this vehicle cannot get stuck, et cetera. It's got six wheels, each one's independent suspension, each one has its own front and reverse. And they just, they're going on about how, what an engineering marvel this vehicle is, right? And so I can just picture Ozzy's like, hmm, okay, challenge accepted, right? And these engineers are like whispering, ah, yeah, he's gonna, you know, there's nothing, it's, it's unstoppable. It's the best thing ever. And they're just whispering in the background. Some, they let, and that guy drives around a little bit. Then they give the controls for Ozzy. I shit you not.

• 1:21:44Speaker 05

  For whatever fucking reason, these guys put in this area a rock as big as this fucking table. Just in the middle of the fucking thing. Now, Ozzy starts driving about 100 yards away from it. How fast does this thing go? Uh, not fast, but not slow. You know, it's like maybe 15 miles an hour. Bicycles speed. Fast enough for you to know where this is going. And I'm watching, I'm watching it drive and it just occurs to me, he's gonna head straight for that fucking rock, right? Now, it's also pretty obvious to me that no one had ever headed straight for that rock.

• 1:22:26Speaker 05

  It's there as like, hey, that's an obstacle. Obviously drive around it, right? No one's like, that, that rock is not there for you to drive around, right? It's obviously that everyone goes around it. You would obviously go around it. Well, you tell Ozzy that thing can go over anything. He's gonna freaking go over anything. So he's driving straight at it. And it occurs to me, I'm like, oh shit, this is not gonna work out well. The engineers in behind me, as it gets about 50 yards away are like, he's not, no, no. And I'm like, oh yes, he is, dude. He hits that thing straight on. It starts going up and you just start hearing the whispering, oh, it'll be fine. Yeah. Oh, this is gonna take that. No one's ever went over that before.

• 1:23:10Speaker 05

  Yeah, but it's designed for it. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And he freaking goes up on it and then he gets on top of it. And then nothing. And dude, the panic starts very slowly. It's like one engineer going, it'll be off in a second.

• 1:23:28Speaker 05

  It'll be off in a few seconds, right? And it just starts building and like over the course of a minute, you just hear these engineers go from like absolute confidence to absolute panic. They're like, oh my God, no way did he like, and by the way, I'm missing a piece I should have said in the beginning. In the beginning, it, I forget how much, but it was like a crazy amount of money, like $5 billion that they had spent. On this vehicle, right? It was an obscene.

• 1:24:01Speaker 05

  Yeah, it was an obscene amount of money, right? And dude, these guys just start freaking out. He's on it for, you know, I don't know, I have to watch the episode. He's on it for like two minutes and ain't moving at all. And it's this huge boulder. It looks ridiculous. It's just like balanced on top of it.

• 1:24:18Speaker 06

  Meanwhile, one of the Doge guys is watching this podcast. Just like Mars truck.

• 1:24:24Speaker 05

  No go, right? And so, long story short, they finally freaking, you know, he has to give control over to the engineer. And that guy like adjusts the pressure, deflates the timing. He, it literally was on there for like three minutes. And finally he, he got it off. But dude, like Ozzy stuck the Mars freaking rover. No doubt about it. I watched it happen. It's a, it was a great episode, dude. You, you gotta see it. So the FBI story, real quick.

• 1:24:53Speaker 04

  I like that was a secondary.

• 1:24:55Speaker 05

  Yeah, well, that was all.

• 1:24:56Speaker 04

  The ones we have.

• 1:24:57Speaker 05

  That was all in buildup, right? All right, so the FBI story is we're at the FBI. So somehow Jack can, and the producers convinced them to go to the FBI. Again, random, so I'm at the FBI academy again.

• 1:25:09Speaker 06

  This what, like Quantico?

• 1:25:11Speaker 05

  Uh, yeah, Quantico, yeah.

• 1:25:12Speaker 04

  We found out when you're friends with certain people.

• 1:25:15Speaker 05

  Yeah, you can go anywhere. World choice here, so.

• 1:25:18Speaker 06

  Redacted, redacted.

• 1:25:22Speaker 05

  We're at the FBI academy and they're, they're doing all this different stuff. They showed some history stuff, the guns, all this. And now we're at the, um, which is pretty famous, which is the FBI's quote unquote Hogan's Alley, right? So it's like their little tactical training portion, which is very world renowned, right? And, um, so their, their shooting instructor starts, or this guy starts doing this briefing. And he's like, yeah, so you know, this is our Hogan's Alley. It was basically they were showing like the FBI's training process, right? And they start saying like, okay, so this is our Hogan's Alley. It's very famous. And this is like the hardest part of the shooting call for the FBI, which, which is true. Um, or at least I'm told. And then, and then he's like.

• 1:26:03Speaker 05

  And this is our lead shooting instructor. Now, here's a huge mistake that he made. He's like, this is our leading shooting instructor. He is the best shooter at the FBI. Like, he's the lead shooting instructor. Nobody could beat him. He's just amazing. And I'm like.

• 1:26:16The Fat Electrician?

  Then Ozzy Osbourne beat him.

• 1:26:18Speaker 05

  No, so then they go, so then he goes, so then he goes.

• 1:26:24Speaker 05

  You're not.

• 1:26:29Speaker 05

  You're not far off. So then they go, so then they go, you know, who here, now we're gonna do a little bit of training. Who here wants to volunteer? Well, it's Jack and Ozzy are the only two people on the show. So Ozzy's like, oh, Jack. So.

• 1:26:43Speaker 06

  I wanna shoot the big gun.

• 1:26:45Speaker 05

  It was pretty obvious to me that no one on the show briefed the FBI that Jack is a great shooter.

• 1:26:54Speaker 04

  Oh, he's a really good shooter.

• 1:26:55Speaker 05

  I've shot with Jack a million times. In fact, Jack and I, that's how we met. We met shooting on, on the range. So Jack is a really legit shooter. He's also really good at jujitsu, right? So.

• 1:27:08Speaker 04

  And to give reference, when you're a decent shot, how many rounds have you probably shot in your?

• 1:27:13Speaker 05

  Me?

• 1:27:14Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:27:14Speaker 05

  Oh, I, I don't know. I used, I literally used to shoot a thousand rounds a day. That's, that's no joke. When it was free.

• 1:27:21Speaker 04

  When it was free.

• 1:27:22Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:27:22Speaker 04

  That's, that is the big indicator.

• 1:27:26Speaker 04

  A certain time period of his life.

• 1:27:27Speaker 05

  Free for me. I used to shoot a thousand rounds a day. Yeah, that's true. And to be fair, I'd rather spend the money as a taxpayer, uh, making sure you can train with free ammo than five billion dollars on a truck that gets stuck.

• 1:27:50Speaker 05

  Don't get me wrong, I love Crazy Train.

• 1:27:58Speaker 05

  If they were smart over the episode, they should have played Crazy Train over the freaking thing. They could have got the license. So basically, obvious, it was obvious to me that no one told the FBI that Jack is like a really good shooter. So, you know, Jack's like, oh, you know, I'll do it. And I mean, dude, if you could have seen the, it's on camera, but the FBI, the, the agent that was like the shooting instructors, dude, he was just so. So confident, you know what I mean? Like, oh, this Hollywood, you know, music royalty, rich kid. I'm gonna smoke this guy. He's like, so they get Sims pistols, Sims glocks, right? And they're doing four again. We I got to watch the episode. I don't remember exactly, but I'm sitting there. Oh, here's the critical part.

• 1:28:42Speaker 06

  For the sake of the audience, simunition like Sims.

• 1:28:44Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah, sorry. So it's it's a, um, I believe they were using Glock 19s. If I remember correctly, using it was either Sims or FTX for it. So of course I don't remember, but it's basically shooting a paint, a plastic paint bullet for like a return. So the gun and they fuckin', they do, they do hurt, but they function. It's a real gun, just has a Sims barrel. Um, and obviously Sims bullets, right? And, uh, which have a generally a, well, it's a unique casing, but it's a plastic bullet with paint in the plastic. And, um, or a variation depending on the brand. So they get the gun and I I'm with the the lead producer and I just like see this. And I just saw I based everything. First of all, I knew how Jack good Jack was, but I saw the FBI dude,

• 1:29:29Speaker 05

  his overconfidence. And I just went to the producer and I go, mark my words. Jack's gonna beat this guy. And they set up four drills and I don't even remember what they are.

• 1:29:40Speaker 05

  They do the first one. Dude, out of four drills, again, you know, clock the show for accuracy. Here from what I remember of the four drills.

• 1:29:49Speaker 08

• 1:30:20Speaker 05

  Jack won, I believe, three out of the four. And the one, if I'm not mistaken, that the FBI agent won, he cheated.

• 1:30:29Speaker 06

  He's so mad.

• 1:30:29Speaker 05

  How do you cheat? I'm trying to remember, but he did something that wasn't in the rules. I don't remember what it was, but it was like, I don't remember what it was, but I just remember, I remember watching it and being like, that, that wasn't in the rules, right? But this, again, the one he won, after he lost, then he started getting panicking and worried, and then he started cheating. But the other part is, the other best part is, one of the four drills, I think on one of the ones he lost, the FBI agent shot the cameraman.

• 1:30:59Speaker 05

  Yeah, with Sims, with the Sims bullet.

• 1:31:02Speaker 06

  Pull the regular bullet.

• 1:31:05Speaker 05

  Maybe he was like, maybe he was a little bit, maybe he was a little, hey, maybe he was a little bit, maybe he was a little bit rusty.

• 1:31:20Speaker 06

  Dear God.

• 1:31:22Speaker 05

  How did he shoot the cameraman? Miss Jack went wide and shot the cameraman. But yeah.

• 1:31:28Speaker 06

  Super easy when you have a gun.

• 1:31:32Speaker 05

  Jack crushed him in the drills. And again, I don't even remember what, exactly what they are, but Jack crushed him. And I was just like, I was like, dude, this guy had no idea what he was getting into. Dude, Jack trains a lot, so it was, it was pretty funny, but that was my, I mean, look, man, it comes down to, it's like, you know, you're talking law enforcement, federal law enforcement, you know, anywhere, in my experience, it's like, dude, you, you gotta be humble, and then just because you've got three letters behind your name, or just because you were at a certain unit or, or agency or whatever, dude, it doesn't make you better than, than anyone else, you know what I mean?

• 1:32:10Speaker 05

  Every case, every person, every situation is, is unique and individual, and dude, there are good people in, you know, the higher you get to in the more prestigious units or, or three-letter places, the less bad people there are, but there's still bad people. There's good people and bad people at every unit, every agency, you know, whatever. And just because you're in a place that maybe has an elite, you know, name or, or title or, or image, doesn't make you better than everyone else, and anyone can beat you, and there's someone always better.

• 1:32:43Speaker 06

  The vast majority of the, the friends or the people that I've met that have been part of those like tier one units and stuff like that. There are some exceptions, don't get me wrong, but like, those are usually the most laid back chill guys. They don't have a bunch of shit to prove.

• 1:32:56Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:32:57Speaker 06

  You'd never know.

• 1:32:59Speaker 05

  Yeah, I mean, I, I know, you know, one of my, one of my best friends, I mean, dude, he is the baddest dude in the world. He's done everything and.

• 1:33:08Speaker 04

  That's a.

• 1:33:15Speaker 06

  He'd never wear a shirt that says strong like whiskey.

• 1:33:20Speaker 05

  No, but if he was here, you guys, you guys would have no idea. He's just the most chill, non, you know, it's, it's the, the, the people that you think are, um, uh, you know, the, the, the, the, the best among us are the people that you never expect.

• 1:33:35Speaker 04

  Warrior's heart owner, like.

• 1:33:37Speaker 05

  Tom, yeah, Tom's, Tom's a machine.

• 1:33:41Speaker 04

  Dude, Tom is one of the most unassuming humans you will e- ever, ever meet.

• 1:33:47Speaker 05

  Yes, this is true.

• 1:33:48Speaker 04

  And then you talk to him and you're like.

• 1:33:49The Fat Electrician?

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:33:50Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:33:51The Fat Electrician?

  I had that moment last time I was here. We got done filming one podcast, you're like, yeah, we're gonna go to the pre-range day party for like 30 minutes and we're gonna come back and film a podcast with Terry. And I was like, okay, dope, who's Terry? And he's like, oh, it's that guy right over there that was like watching the whole previous podcast. And I was like, okay, dope, nice to meet you, Terry, blah, blah, I come over here. Who the fuck is Terry? And he's like, oh, he's the guy that saved Captain Phillips. Oh!

• 1:34:17Speaker 06

  Chill, like, we hung out with him for the entire day, didn't know a damn thing, like, obviously you tell, like, from the look of the guy, it's like, okay, he's like been there and done some shit, but like, he'd never be the one to tell you.

• 1:34:28Speaker 05

  No, Tom, Tom, Tom is that way. I mean, I was in, you know, in, uh, we were in the same, uh.

• 1:34:36Speaker 04

  Military.

• 1:34:37Speaker 05

  Well, yeah.

• 1:34:41Speaker 05

  When you break it down, we were in, you know, a smaller unit together, is what I'm trying to say.

• 1:34:47Speaker 06

  We high-fived each other in the hallway.

• 1:34:49Speaker 05

  Well, well, we were, you know, a lot of guys, you know, you, you don't see because you're on opposite, you know, places and you just never see them, but Tom, I, I, you know, I was with, um, and he was much closer than other people were, so I saw firsthand, I mean, he's just, he's the baddest dude out there and, uh, again, you would never expect it in a conversation with him, but he's, he's, he's a machine. I, I did, to be honest, though, if I'm being perfectly honest, while I was there. I thought Tom was like, I'm like, this guy's way too chill. Like,

• 1:35:18Speaker 04

  Dude, Tom is.

• 1:35:19Speaker 05

  You know what I mean?

• 1:35:20Speaker 04

  Yeah, I was like,

• 1:35:23Speaker 05

  Honestly, I remember back then thinking, man, why is this? And I, dude, I was young fucking, I was, you know, a young moron. But I just remember like, how is this guy so stoic? You know, I remember thinking that back then. And, uh, and then when I was at Warrior's Heart and I was actually talking to Tom. And I've kind of talked to him about, then I was like, dude, I didn't know. Uh, cause I didn't, I'm like, I didn't know that you got sober like, I think in the early 2000s, if I'm not mistaken. So I'm like, I didn't know that about you. And that would have, to me, that kind of solved that Stoicism mystery of, of that time. Like he'd already gone through so much personal development, so much personal growth. He was already on like another Zen level.

• 1:36:05Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:36:06Speaker 05

  Um, like I hadn't even, Not, not only was I not there, I hadn't even like, I hadn't even been an asshole yet before. You know what I mean? Like I still had to become an asshole and then achieve, you know, some level of, of personal growth. He, he would already been through the whole thing. So, yeah, he's, he's a great dude.

• 1:36:21Speaker 04

  He's a super cool dude. With you, like AJ, with your side, what was one of the stories? Like probably you've heard Tyler or another person tell where you're like, Jesus, fuck, what the?

• 1:36:33Speaker 01

  Um, man, there's, I mean, there's, there was.

• 1:36:36Speaker 05

  Can I say this real quick though? Okay.

• 1:36:40Speaker 05

  You, you gotta understand, he tells me stories. Like it's not me saying stories that I'm like, that he's like, oh, that's crazy combat story. I hear his Hollywood stories, bro. And I'm like, that's the craziest shit I've ever heard. My stories are stupid compared to his stories.

• 1:36:58Speaker 01

  Tell us you what I.

• 1:36:59Speaker 05

  Fucking Hollywood stories, bro.

• 1:37:01Speaker 06

  How many kids in that basement?

• 1:37:06Speaker 05

  No way.

• 1:37:07The Fat Electrician?

  How much for hot dogs?

• 1:37:11Speaker 05

  Oh, burn. No, uh, because one time Tom Cruise, he bought a $20,000 uh, he had coat rack from uh, Wayfair and got a coat rack. He was so pissed. Those dating parties were crazy, bro. He basically like lived entourage.

• 1:37:28Speaker 01

  Oh no. Am I wrong? No, it was a crazy, it was a crazy.

• 1:37:31Speaker 05

  Dude, House in the Hills, you know, eight chicks in the fr- like, like a single man's dream, like dude, he has the craziest stories you've ever heard, ever heard. And that's why I like, uh, he didn't geek out to my stories. I geeked out to his stories. I'm like, that's so cool.

• 1:37:46Speaker 01

  I remember when I, I remember when I met my wife.

• 1:37:48Speaker 05

  Oh dude, please tell this story. It's the best story.

• 1:37:51Speaker 01

  I was like, I was listening, because I like knew she was gonna be the one. I was like, listen, it's probably um, probably gonna hear a lot of things. Think people coming up and saying stuff and she go, yeah, I'm like, um, various different stories happened and, and I go, I just want you to know, all of them are true. She was like, everything?

• 1:38:10Speaker 05

  Are you gonna tell that story?

• 1:38:12Speaker 01

  Well, yeah, then she goes, she goes, uh, there was this one girl, or, or if there's a, somebody was saying, there was like, yeah, one time AJ came out uh, at a party with just a hat on, his, his hammer. And uh, was walking around and, and she looks at me, I go, that's, that's true, babe, I, I did that.

• 1:38:32Speaker 01

  And she was like, well, that sounds like my husband.

• 1:38:35Speaker 05

  Would you tell at least a version of your meeting, m- meeting your wife's story?

• 1:38:39Speaker 01

  Oh yeah, yeah, that's easy, yeah.

• 1:38:42Speaker 05

  This, this, this story defines. We got the hat on the hammer story, so. This story defines AJ.

• 1:38:47Speaker 01

  So, uh, I just wanted, well, the hat on the hammer, I just wanna see if I could carry a stetson and walk into a room and I accomplished the mission.

• 1:38:55The Fat Electrician?

  I don't know Connor's face right now, Connor's like.

• 1:38:59Speaker 05

  What he's not saying is it was a small stetson.

• 1:39:04Speaker 01

  Yeah, one of those ones they put on monkeys.

• 1:39:05The Fat Electrician?

  No, it's that Turf Ferguson hat.

• 1:39:10Speaker 01

  Hey. So. I'm tired of her. I had a few goddamn. But, uh, no, I, I, when I was in Vegas, uh, I hadn't really slept the night before and I was going to my buddy. Why not? What's that? Why not? Gambling. Uh. We literally. It'd be like that. It'd be like, we just went to bed last week at like six in the morning from gambling. And we, and so I went right to the, I was wearing a suit from the night before because we had some other dinner thing that we went to. It wasn't really that I'd wear suits a lot, but I just had been wearing it. And I was like, fuck it. We're going over to this, it was a wet, that wet club at. They were Wet Republic. Wet Republic. Yeah. So I was like, I was with my buddy. I'm like. I don't know that one either. And let's just, let's just go to the actual, uh, the pool. I'm like, let's not go back to the room.

• 1:39:54Speaker 01

  It was at another hotel. I'm like, well, I'll just buy shorts there. So we stopped by like store, grabbed some shorts stuff, show up to the thing, the party's going. And as I walk in, I see this smoke show in the hot tub in a yellow bikini. And I'm like, oh my God, that girl is so hot. And I am in that zone of like zero fucks. You're a machine at the, you're like in the zone. My eyes are bloodshot, but I just saw her. I was like, talking to her. So the waitress was going by, grabbed like two Coronas, I jumped in the hot tub, fully dressed in my suit, like shoes, everything. Got in beside her and she turns around, she's like, what the fuck? She's like, why are you wearing a suit in the hot tub? I'm like, why are you wearing a bikini?

• 1:40:36Speaker 01

  That's such a normal model, but that's such an Asian. And I handed her, I handed her a beer and, uh, then I ended up marrying her. And then we were together pretty much ever since. That was my entrance. And truthfully, if I had not done it, I don't think I'd had the balls to, to go up or catch her attention. She was like, okay. All right. And then we, that was, so that's how I met my wife. I haven't told my kids that. So we've told them a very different story, but one day they'll, they'll hear that. But, uh. How old are your kids? I got twin boys that are six, uh, turn seven next month. Yeah, that's a little young for that. Yeah. Yeah. My daughter's, my daughter's, uh, uh, 11. So yes, they, they get the Disney version right now. The Disney version versus the original German fairy tale.

• 1:41:19Speaker 01

  I have a funny story with Tyler when

• 1:41:22Speaker 01

  so when when you go do the show when it after gets picked up after

• 1:41:29Speaker 01

  so we shoot a pilot you don't know if it's gonna get picked up so you go away Very rarely do pilots get picked up. Yeah, it's super rare and we knew that we had had like a good shot but you didn't know there was all sorts of things and it was like it was it was all this thing like it does the audience want to there was three other shows military shows that were coming out that year so we had to we finally get picked up we head to in Radio City Music Music Hall where they do the announcement back then it's called the up front and all of the fucking press show up there like all the press from around the world and the studio has a day where they introduce the cast to the world right and this is this is stuff you dream about as an actor like when I was on CSI New York I was number eight on the call sheet so I never got to go on the trips it was maybe one two three and four

• 1:42:15Speaker 01

  that would go or it'd be one and two so this is my very first in you know 25 years in the industry at the time or 22 years in the industry I was part of this and I was like oh this is like and I remember even like read I was like got emotional like this is like wow finally happening get to Radio Music Studio and I remember Les Moonves who was the president of CBS at the time walk by he's like AJ good to have you back I was like dude you remembered my name I'm like holy shit this moment is like couldn't get better so they have us there an hour early for a tech rehearsal just to walk through so the cameras catch us all that tell us how it's gonna go because it's live and all the people are there so I'm like this is great and my publicist with me all high fiving and like Dave Oriana goes out and Dave Oriana blah blah The guy from Bones?

• 1:42:58Speaker 01

  Yeah, he's the lead of our show so so and they said when you walk out you hit this mark the audience in press it's like the photo line take you know there's thousand pictures all the camera crew you sort of wave to them and then there's the audience of all the the press and you turn around and there's like a 15 foot screen with like action shots of you from the show. Yeah, it's fucking cool. 15 by freaking 100 feet. So Radio City Music Hall Beatles are played there like Zeppelin everybody so I walk out and this is rehearsal and I do the thing and they're saying there's gonna be pictures here now turn look at yourself up there and I look up and I'm like hold on a second. I'm like, ma'am, I'm just kidding, ma'am, just so that's, that's, that's not me, that's Tyler Gray. And they're like, they're like, who?

• 1:43:40Speaker 05

  Same shit.

• 1:43:42Speaker 01

  There's a two-minute action reel.

• 1:43:44Speaker 05

  Oh, no.

• 1:43:44Speaker 01

  Not one of them is me, it's all him.

• 1:43:49Speaker 01

  And I'm like, I'm like, none of those are me, and it says, AJ Buckley, AJ Buckley. It's all him.

• 1:43:54Speaker 05

  Every single. That's genuinely very funny.

• 1:43:58Speaker 06

  He's the other beardy head guy.

• 1:44:01Speaker 04

  What moment you waited for? And the action reel is nothing but you with your name, you're like.

• 1:44:06Speaker 05

  And then so. Oh, no, here's the best part.

• 1:44:07Speaker 01

  So, so, so my friend's like, we have to fix this, they're like, okay, what should I do? And they come back, we don't have enough time, but we just have to be able to fix it. I'm like, so I'm gonna go out, and my biggest moment, Karen, is fucking Tyler Gray? It says over, and they're like, sorry, there's nothing, so literally introduce the world, and they're like, there's this video of literally, I walk up, AJ Buckley, and it's like, Tyler.

• 1:44:26Speaker 01

  That was it, that was like, I called him.

• 1:44:28Speaker 05

  That was his moment, he's like, you motherfucker.

• 1:44:30Speaker 01

  I was like, what? He's like, what?

• 1:44:31Speaker 05

  Yeah, it's great.

• 1:44:32Speaker 01

  There's been many times where we've, uh, people have asked, well.

• 1:44:35Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, we're twin bro- twin brothers.

• 1:44:37Speaker 06

  Me and Cardi.

• 1:44:38Speaker 05

  We're actually born the same year. But they also say, um, to be perfectly honest with you, dude, I honestly.

• 1:44:44Speaker 06

  I told them.

• 1:44:45Speaker 05

  That's fair. I, I literally didn't know, I, I just, I thought, I thought, this is a true story, no joke, I thought Donut's real name was Brandon Herrera.

• 1:44:54Speaker 04

  He did not know.

• 1:44:55Speaker 05

  I had no, I had no idea it was two people, I had no idea, I just, you know, I don't, I'm not.

• 1:45:02The Fat Electrician?

  Maybe you're gonna say we're literally wearing the same shirt today.

• 1:45:05Speaker 05

  I, like, social media, like, I just didn't know, I, I, I never, I don't usually, I'm very bad at YouTube and all that stuff, I, I just didn't know. And then when you told me, I was like, oh shit, that makes so much sense.

• 1:45:19Speaker 06

  Two different guys.

• 1:45:20Speaker 05

  Yeah, well, I had never seen you guys in the same place at the same time, just saying.

• 1:45:25Speaker 06

  Fair enough, like on a podcast.

• 1:45:26Speaker 05

  Yeah, well, I'd only even met him, I, you, I had like seen you once in passing, I had seen, literally met him once in passing, and I mean, it just wasn't a long enough conversation where I really like, you know.

• 1:45:39Speaker 06

  I never, I never saw it, frankly, but like, we get it so much in public, like, just like, oh, are you brothers? Or like, oh, like, that sort of thing, like, people. Shot show, it was literally shot show, we've told it before, but it was a guy walking past Brandon.

• 1:45:54Speaker 04

  Brandon Cody guy walks and says hey to Cody like hey I appreciate you.

• 1:46:01Speaker 06

  Appreciate all you do in Texas and blah blah and I like cuz he said like he shouted like Brandon Brandon and walks past me. And I'm just like I just hang back my face is hilarious.

• 1:46:13Speaker 04

  Basically gets his selfie turns looks at Brandon like.

• 1:46:16Speaker 06

  He said oh.

• 1:46:19Speaker 05

  I mean that's that's great. That's awesome. That's funny.

• 1:46:22Speaker 06

  And like Cody gives me the challenge coin. He's like, I believe he meant to give this to you.

• 1:46:26Speaker 05

  Wow. That's but God, he must have felt like a asshole, pretty much just like me. That's hilarious.

• 1:46:33Speaker 06

  It's it's funny to me like we we just fucking leaned into it, man. It's like, what else can you do?

• 1:46:37Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, I mean, we I kind of same with him and I we didn't really see it and then it happened quite a few times where people would like, you know, call me AJ or vice versa. And then like he said, we just started going with it and, you know, introducing ourselves as twin brothers.

• 1:46:53Speaker 06

  Cody's gone a step farther. He just has started to accept it like when people think that. Yeah. They're like, oh, hey, Brandon. He's like, yes, I am.

• 1:47:02Speaker 06

  And we'll have a full conversation answering questions for me.

• 1:47:05Speaker 05

  Jeez, you guys, you guys are pretty.

• 1:47:11Speaker 05

  I mean, but you do different things, but I guess you're you're together sometimes on some.

• 1:47:15Speaker 04

  We've had, my favorite is still somebody at Shasha when him thinking he was Brandon.

• 1:47:21The Fat Electrician?

  Somebody thought I was Brandon.

• 1:47:23Speaker 04

  In front of Brandon. Yeah, this is the first time. We were all like this.

• 1:47:27The Fat Electrician?

  Slightly different.

• 1:47:28Speaker 06

  He looks very Herrera ish. The far more Aryan tattooed guy.

• 1:47:35Speaker 04

  Thank you. Thank you. My son loves you. I love what you do for Texas. And at that moment, we were like, she thinks he's Brandon.

• 1:47:42Speaker 06

  Okay, so we all, us three are having this conversation on the side.

• 1:47:46Speaker 05

  Or like.

• 1:47:47Speaker 06

  I. Is she? Yeah, she does. Okay.

• 1:47:49Speaker 05

  I have to ask. I have to ask just because I don't know. And I don't I'm not I'm literally not saying this jokingly. What do you do for Texas?

• 1:47:58Speaker 06

  Uh, so I ran for congress. Oh, no shit. Okay. Yeah, San Antonio to El Paso, that district. Awesome. So just big in like the two way politics and just like the conservative politics in general. Oh, cool. Yeah, yeah. That's awesome. Was it your first run? Yeah, yeah. Never, never gotten into politics uh, ever before. I ran against the incumbent here in uh. Well, I mean, that's a rough one. But he put it in a runoff. It was a, it's a district where it's like it's a republican district, like a republican is going to win in this district. Um, but I, I primaried him. We passed the primary. So we, uh, in Texas, it's runoff state. So if you get below 50%, you're put into a special election with the, the people that came in first and second. Mm-hmm. So I, I forced him into a runoff election where he spent, he outspent me 10 to 1 to try to keep his job.

• 1:48:43Speaker 06

  Whoa. And. How much? Uh, we still were within 1%. Oh, how much money was spent against you? I don't know, 12 million roughly. Wow. He had to slander me in the town I live in. You're like, okay, how about this? Next year, you give me eight and we'll call it a deal.

• 1:49:00Speaker 06

  And I just won't run. A crime. Can't do that. Let's. Rivalry. Brandon's like, I'm not a doer. Politicians would never commit crimes.

• 1:49:12The Fat Electrician?

  Some of, some of the funniest political ads you've ever seen in your life are against him. We have.

• 1:49:17Speaker 06

  It was so good.

• 1:49:18The Fat Electrician?

  Cody has a mailer that's got sent out to everybody in the district of a cartoon with Brandon's real face on it of a dude wearing an enormous cowboy hat. Brandon Herrera's all hat, no cattle. That's the whole mailer. It was so funny.

• 1:49:35Speaker 06

  So bad. Oh, like. Oh, and it was, some of them were so funny. Like there was one where it's like, Brandon Herrera doesn't understand Texas, cuz he's not blah blah blah. Like a bunch of like crazy shit, but it ended the ad with uh, some of the clips from my YouTube like years ago where I was doing a skit and it's me wearing like the coke dealer shades like. Woo! Like I face full of white powder. They literally included that at the end of the ad. I'm like, this is actually so funny.

• 1:50:01Speaker 01

  Good, yeah, it's good.

• 1:50:02Speaker 06

  Yeah, politics is just-

• 1:50:03Speaker 01

  That's the sign there, there. Yeah. Fuck, yeah.

• 1:50:05Speaker 06

  Brandon. Literally.

• 1:50:06Speaker 01

  I bucket, that's, let's go Brandon.

• 1:50:08The Fat Electrician?

  And now he's currently in consideration to be the new head of the ATF.

• 1:50:12Speaker 01

  Are you serious?

• 1:50:13Speaker 06

  Uh, so, the story about that. RFK had a website that he, he put up- We have near law. Right after, uh, Trump won, uh, was, uh, "Make America Healthy Again."

• 1:50:24Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:50:24Speaker 06

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it was nominees for the people, where people could nominate their own, like, basically for people they thought would be good for certain cabinet positions. I had nothing to do with this, but somebody threw my name in for, uh, director of the, the ATF, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. It got more votes than any other single nominee on the entire website.

• 1:50:46Speaker 01

  Wow.

• 1:50:46Speaker 06

  Really? And it became a legitimate conversation for a minute.

• 1:50:50Speaker 01

  Wow, that would be awesome.

• 1:50:51Speaker 06

  For a minute? I, the, the thing I said at SHO, I, I, I've had to come up with a canned line. It's gonna be a really funny story when I can tell it.

• 1:51:00Speaker 01

  Okay, I like it.

• 1:51:02Speaker 06

  Tell those- That's fair. Yeah. It's a weird thing. I'm sure you guys, yeah.

• 1:51:08Speaker 06

  That's fair.

• 1:51:09The Fat Electrician?

  Then I got bored and made Tony the most dishonest politician.

• 1:51:11Speaker 05

  Oh my god, I actually made a joke. I just realized that I made a joke on the interwebs about this and I just didn't realize it was you.

• 1:51:22Speaker 05

  Somebody had, I did, I didn't even put it together, it was you, but it was like, I realize now it was like Brandon Herrera for, for, Brandon Herrera for ATF Director, and then I had, this is probably when I hadn't, I was confused on, and then I looked at it.

• 1:51:37Speaker 06

  I love that guy's cop videos.

• 1:51:41Speaker 05

  I'm, I'm really YouTube, I don't, I never watch YouTube, so I'm just so bad at like, but so anyways, then I went to your page, I'm like, "Oh, that's obviously a joke, this guy's, you know, huge 2A guy." So then I went back and I posted, "Yeah, it would be awesome on his first day that he makes himself unemployed."

• 1:51:57Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:51:58Speaker 05

  Basically saying abolish the ATF on, you know, it's, you know.

• 1:52:01Speaker 06

  I thought it was a good joke. Yeah, I thought it was funny, yeah.

• 1:52:05The Fat Electrician?

  I thought I was joking, but I was just stating the obvious.

• 1:52:08Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, on his, yeah, on his first day, he makes himself unemployed, yeah.

• 1:52:12Speaker 06

  That's, that's the end goal.

• 1:52:13Speaker 05

  Yeah, that's funny. I mean, you know, it's like, it-

• 1:52:18Speaker 06

  I mean, you, you'd never have a director of the FAA who fucking hates airplanes.

• 1:52:22Speaker 05

  Yeah. I did.

• 1:52:24Speaker 01

  Who's their interim guy? They just don't.

• 1:52:26Speaker 06

  So Steven Detlebach just resigned.

• 1:52:28Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:52:29Speaker 06

  Um, they don't have, so the ATF is a weird case where like at the last like two decades, there I think has been more time where there wasn't an actual confirmed director than the times that there was. So like, it's been a lot of acting directors.

• 1:52:42Speaker 01

  Hmm.

• 1:52:42Speaker 06

  Uh, but not a lot of actual like Senate confirmed directors.

• 1:52:46Speaker 05

  I mean, dude, the ATF, I, you know, I've had an interesting experience with the ATF. Like, you know, I, I've been interviewed them by them twice on, actually three times, but on just like random stuff with, it's just crazy what, you know, someone says something and the ATF's like, hey, you know, like, what's the deal with this? And you're like, I don't even know what you're talking about. But, um, what's interesting to me about the ATF is like, I've, each time I've had to talk to them, in my experience with them, as long as you're like, just, you know, it's like dealing with cops. You know, you're like, hey dude, this is what it is. Like, they've been really cool every time I've had to deal with them. Um, but that's also because, you know, I'm not doing anything wrong and I just, you

• 1:53:29Speaker 05

  know, tell them, uh, uh, you know, I'm able to be very honest, but.

• 1:53:34Speaker 06

  In my experience, and I think it's probably what you're, what you're getting at, it's like, it, it matters more where they're from. Cause like an ATF field agent from Hawaii or New Jersey is going to behave way different than one from Tennessee or Texas. Cause like all of my, uh, field agents, anybody I've ever had, like do my interviews or whatever, they've always been rad as fuck.

• 1:53:57Speaker 05

  I, I.

• 1:53:57Speaker 06

  Like they've been super. They've, I've been lucky.

• 1:53:59Speaker 05

  Yeah, I, I've been the same. I've, I've had a good experience when I've dealt with them. In my experience, the ATF, it's, it's, it just comes down to anything with the government. As long as you're paying, you know, your vig to the government, you can do what you want. As soon as you freaking try and like go around them, that's when they.

• 1:54:19Speaker 06

  Punishable by fine means legal for a fee.

• 1:54:22Speaker 05

  There you go. And, you know, my dealings with ATF, they've been cool with me and I've had really cool agents. Um, and it's just like, but again, it's, uh, it's.

• 1:54:33Speaker 05

  scary because you know that if you get the wrong experience

• 1:54:37Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:54:37Speaker 05

  They can put the hammer down on you for things that really are, you know what I mean?

• 1:54:41Speaker 06

  To justify their budget or whatever the fuck.

• 1:54:44Speaker 05

  It's a scary, it's a scary situation to deal with them, even if you're not doing anything wrong, because you know the power they have and, and, and it's, uh, that, that is where I think as a government, if you're not doing anything wrong, you as a person shouldn't have that fear. That's my opinion.

• 1:55:01Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:55:01Speaker 05

  You know what I mean? If I'm not doing anything wrong, I shouldn't have the fear that, and I don't care who it is, federal law enforcement, law enforcement, if I'm not doing anything wrong, I shouldn't have any fear. And the fact that we do in our current society because of the, the amount of power they have and what they can do, um, I think that needs to change in my opinion.

• 1:55:19Speaker 06

  And I hate that because of politics, you get the Janet Reno's, the Bill Clinton administration, like that sort of thing where like, uh, even with Waco, it's like, you could make the argument, it's like, yeah, we probably should have talked to this guy a while ago. But he even said it like in the VHS tapes, like the, the David Koresh.

• 1:55:33Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:55:34Speaker 06

  He's like, I go, I go jogging every morning. You could have like, I have a good relationship with the sheriff.

• 1:55:40Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:55:40Speaker 06

  You could have talked to me at any point. Why did this become a siege where you have to fucking bake twenty kids alive? Like that's absurd.

• 1:55:47Speaker 05

  I, I mean, I've watched quite a lot on, on, on Waco. I mean, you know, or do you know that they had an undercover agent?

• 1:55:57Speaker 06

  I've heard that.

• 1:55:58Speaker 05

  No, it's, I mean, it's a fact.

• 1:55:59Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:56:00Speaker 05

  That's a fact, like, and.

• 1:56:01Speaker 06

  Well, I did an undercover, uh, an undercover or a CI?

• 1:56:05Speaker 05

  No, an undercover.

• 1:56:06Speaker 06

  Straight up undercover.

• 1:56:07Speaker 05

  In the, in.

• 1:56:08Speaker 06

  They had an undercover agent in the church.

• 1:56:12Speaker 05

  So dude, I mean, and, and to, from the things I've read, I wasn't there. I actually had a friend that was, uh, an ATF agent at Waco and dude, he told me some banana stuff about, uh, just a bunch of things about how crazy that situation was.

• 1:56:28Speaker 06

  I can only imagine.

• 1:56:29Speaker 05

  Dude, I mean, just stuff that he told me, I was like, that is unbelievable. But the, the, the point being is, you know, in that agent's defense, from what I read and watched, you know, he himself was like, dude, what are we doing?

• 1:56:40Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:57:11Speaker 05

  What do you mean, he's like?

• 1:57:12Speaker 01

  People don't know how crazy it was.

• 1:57:13Speaker 05

  It is.

• 1:57:14Speaker 01

  Like, people are shooting machine guns from a helicopter into a church.

• 1:57:18Speaker 05

  It is. The whole situation is bananas. And the more you learn about it, the more bananas it is.

• 1:57:26Speaker 01

  The first time I learned about the ATF, I did a show called Narcos. And... He just dropped out.

• 1:57:35Speaker 01

  Season one of Narcos.

• 1:57:37Speaker 05

  He played Pablo.

• 1:57:39Speaker 01

  So did I. When we first got the script and we started, when we was cast, that was the story of how the ATF was formed. Their interrogation, or their investigation of Pablo. And then they got one of the guys that Boyd Holbrook played. That was like their first big mission where they're flying over and getting... The reconnaissance stuff. Reconnaissance sort of stuff. But going over there and meeting some of the original players in Colombia. Because we filmed in...

• 1:58:10Speaker 01

  We filmed all over, but we were in... Medine? The other one. Cali? Bogota. Bogota, Bogota. Which I don't know if you guys have ever been to Bogota before. It is... I can't sleep there. It's like the altitude, every time I lay down, it's just like... Higher than Denver. By a lot. Awesome, awesome place. But the guy...

• 1:58:34Speaker 01

  Yeah, true. That's it involved a hat. There was no hat.

• 1:58:42Speaker 01

  Oh, that's worse. But yeah, it was crazy how, like, what... What that whole, the whole time of that agency and what they sort of went through and what they were up against with, with Pablo in the trade.

• 1:58:55Speaker 05

  You talking about ATF or DEA?

• 1:58:57Speaker 01

  The ATF.

• 1:58:58Speaker 05

  Oh, okay.

• 1:58:58Speaker 06

  Yeah, because I would have thought DEA. I didn't know ATF was involved.

• 1:59:01Speaker 01

  Yeah, ATF was involved.

• 1:59:03Speaker 06

  Because this would have been what, mid eighties?

• 1:59:04Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:59:05Speaker 05

  Uh, late eighties by the time.

• 1:59:08The Fat Electrician?

  The ATF had to fight the hippos.

• 1:59:11Speaker 06

  Ah, fair.

• 1:59:11Speaker 01

  Yes. This is like DEA, yeah. It was probably all, all branches. I think it was like all, all, um, from what the, when I was, and I could be shit in the bed on this, but from what I was, this is like one of the first big missions of, of that entire team, but to see the people on the ground and what happened there and like the, just the technology from where they were then to what everybody has now, like with those planes that would go over and. Dude, surveillance as a whole took off during that time. That was when we learned about. Yeah, they were flying over with these planes and just sort of picking up.

• 1:59:42Speaker 06

  And listening to people based on the sound of their voice.

• 1:59:44Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:59:44Speaker 06

  Which is fucking crazy.

• 1:59:46Speaker 05

  Dude, I'll, I'll tell you, I'll, I'll tell you a Columbia Pablo story. So, um, when I was in, well, first of all.

• 1:59:54Speaker 01

  Who are you guys, man?

• 1:59:55Speaker 05

  No, I, so when I went to, well, first of all, when we filmed in Columbia for SEAL Team, we filmed in one of, now granted, when I say one of Pablo Escobar's like houses, dude, he probably had 200 houses, you know, that guy was a billionaire.

• 2:00:08Speaker 06

  See, they turned his plane into an Airbnb.

• 2:00:10Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a crazy, uh, but we stayed, we, we filmed in one of them. But anyways, when I was in, um, when I was in, uh, Majin, we just, my buddy and I at the time were like, dude, let's like, let's go check out some Pablo Escobar shit. So the two, we went to his graveside, who we went to like where the neighborhood where they like, he dealt drugs, which is not a place to go today. Let me tell you, that was a bad idea.

• 2:00:34Speaker 06

  Wild.

• 2:00:35Speaker 05

  Uh, yeah, it was really dangerous. Um, and then we went all over the place.

• 2:00:39Speaker 06

  Let me, let me go to the place where somebody who dealt drugs could get so powerful, he became his own government.

• 2:00:46Speaker 05

  Really dangerous.

• 2:00:47Speaker 01

  Brad, I don't think we fit.

• 2:00:51Speaker 05

  Yeah, it was, yeah, it was, it was really dangerous. But anyways, we ended up going to, um, we like paid this guy like a bunch of money and was just like, uh, you know, there's no Ubers taxi app. We're basically like, take us where Pablo was killed. And that was like what we said and he was like, uh, okay. So we go to this, um, place and then we were like, we got let out. Spoiler alert, I'm on season two.

• 2:01:17Speaker 05

  And he was wrong. And then we're literally with broken Spanish. We're like, where did Pablo get killed? And dude, we probably asked 10 people and they're like, you know, finally we get to the spot, right? And I look up and, and, and this is the house. Now, first of all, the house that he was killed on no longer exists. And it's, uh, it's been, I don't know if the whole house was torn down. I don't remember, but the exact spot is, is different. Right? And so I looked up images and I was, you know, matching it and everything. And we figured out we're standing across from where he was killed. And I'm there. Now I was a sniper for years, right? And I'm there and I'm like, looking at this house. And I'm looking at the image back in 90, whatever it was, three, whatever, uh, or two.

• 2:02:02Speaker 05

  And I'm like, I'm like looking at it. I'm looking at it. And then I'm reading the account of like how he died. And I'm looking at the location and then I look around.

• 2:02:12Speaker 05

  And I'm like, this doesn't fit. Like this just doesn't fit. There's no way he was killed by the way the account says, because I'm standing here looking at it. I'm looking at the. I have also been to Dealey Plaza.

• 2:02:29Speaker 05

  So, so basically I'm there and I'm like, I'm like looking around. I'm like this, there's no way the official account. And so anyways, I called somebody that would be in the know. And they were like, they were like, yeah, like, what do you notice? And I'm like, well, there's, there's no way for a person to shoot from to do what he said. And they're like, so what's the only option? And I'm like, and I said something and he goes. You don't need to ask any more questions. And I was like, okay. So I'll just say without explaining it.

• 2:03:10Speaker 05

  If you go there and you look and you read the official account, you'll, you'll put together, there's only.

• 2:03:18Speaker 04

  Yeah, we're gonna totally do that.

• 2:03:21Speaker 05

  I'm not gonna explain it. I'm not gonna explain it. I'm just saying you'll, you'll figure out what must have happened if you go there. Because the, the train just, the train doesn't support the official account. I said, I've also been to Dealey Plaza.

• 2:03:42Speaker 05

  Well, that's gonna be coming out soon, you know? I'm excited for that.

• 2:03:45The Fat Electrician?

  You missed a golden opportunity when you were on the phone. And next question, JFK's head really just do that?

• 2:03:52Speaker 05

  So first of all, so first of all, or not first, but second of all, like, dude, I read this thing recently about JFK and I'm like, there's no way that's true. And I look it up and it is true. It's like, I didn't know his brain was missing from the National Archives. Yeah, that was weird. I was like, what? What? Yeah, dude. That was like a legit thing. His brain was stolen from the National Archives. Look it up. Some guy who signed his fucking guest name as CIA.

• 2:04:25Speaker 05

  He's like, John Smith agent. Oh. John. But dude, look it up. His brain was basically went missing from the National Archives. Out of the back of a Lincoln.

• 2:04:38Speaker 03

  Lyndon Baines Smithson.

• 2:04:43Speaker 05

  But you know what I'm saying? Like when, when, when, my point that I'm making is, you know, the conspiracy of JFK. I mean, you hear this from years and yet I never heard about the missing brain. I'm like, dude, that's a big piece of the puzzle that supports the fact that something happened that we don't know of. Are we gonna get into the JFK thing right now? Mission. Well, I think we're already in there, buddy.

• 2:05:03Speaker 04

  I think when he said JFK.

• 2:05:06Speaker 05

  I mean, like, oh, in the conversation, do we really wanna get into it? I mean, look, I'll say this. I'll say this about it. When I watched a recent. When I watched a recent, I don't remember the, the name of this documentary, but I watched a documentary on, on JFK, again, this was like three years ago. And it makes a case on who killed him. And I was like, it makes a case on who killed him? It's a pretty solid case, dude. Which, which one? It's the one that base, it doesn't say it, but it, it basically details his connection to the mob. Basically says the mob put him in office, basically explains the connection with JFK and the mob to Cuba.

• 2:05:51Speaker 05

  Yeah. Talks about the Bay of Pigs. And like that whole thing, the narrative that they like, I'm like, okay. Bunch of pissed off CIA boys that got. Well, well, see, but see, that's the thing is it, it, it basically says, look, the CIA was pissed. The mob was pissed. The crazy connection that I thought was pretty damning, and this was just my personal feeling on it, was the guy that killed Lee Harvey Oswald, and again, if I'm wrong, don't quote me, was a straight up mob hitman. Yes, yes. Like not debatably, not conspiracy theory-esque, like, Yeah. cut and dry a mob hitman. So then you go. You didn't know that Eli?

• 2:06:28Speaker 01

  No.

• 2:06:29Speaker 05

  Yeah. Dude, not, not. That's not a conspiracy theory. That's like just a known fact. That is a known fact. That is a known fact that the guy who killed Lee Harvey Oswald was a mob hitman. Fact. So once you put all those facts together, you go, okay, dude, like, you know, there's a lot more, in my mind, it was a lot more of a clearer picture where you just started. Like, I believe the mob helped him get elected. Oh, dude, I absolutely believe that.

• 2:06:57Speaker 01

  What is it that, uh, his wife said, uh, to his wife?

• 2:07:00Speaker 03

  No, she said.

• 2:07:01Speaker 05

  Which one?

• 2:07:02Speaker 03

  I want them to see what they've done to Jack.

• 2:07:04Speaker 01

  She wouldn't take off her, I remember seeing him, like, why would she say something like that? Like who's, who's what they've, who are they, what they?

• 2:07:11Speaker 03

  And then you got LBJ and the governor.

• 2:07:13Speaker 01

  Cause she wouldn't take the blood off, she wouldn't take, she wore, she wore the dress, everything with all, everything on her.

• 2:07:18Speaker 05

  Fucking good on her. That's.

• 2:07:20Speaker 03

  They're on Air Force One and LBJ and I, fuck, I can't remember his name, but they're throwing each other the fuck. Okay, and winking at each other.

• 2:07:27Speaker 05

  Dude, that's, see, that's another part where you're like, whoa.

• 2:07:30Speaker 03

  You don't know this?

• 2:07:31Speaker 05

  No, I don't know. It's not, zero.

• 2:07:33Speaker 06

  The only thing I know about the JFK assassination is that it didn't happen the way they said it did. There's like four, four theories that I'm like, oh, those.

• 2:07:41Speaker 05

  All kind of hold their own water a little bit, but like the official story is so bad.

• 2:07:45Speaker 04

  Cameras.

• 2:07:46Speaker 05

  I mean dude, again though, as, as a sniper dude, every time like sniper stuff comes up in the media, you know, I, I know enough to. Did you fart?

• 2:07:57Speaker 05

  But I know, I know.

• 2:07:59Speaker 01

  The hatred in your voice.

• 2:08:01Speaker 05

  I, I know enough to like, you know, I, I know enough to comment, you know what I mean? Like when the, the secret service happened and stuff, I was like, oh my dear God, you know, I just.

• 2:08:11Speaker 04

  Yeah. You have a decent understanding.

• 2:08:13Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, I've been, you know, I did it for, you know, almost five years, like, you know, I, I know long range or that job, you know, not, I know well enough.

• 2:08:22Speaker 04

  I hate how much you now believe shit. It sounds like you're. Joe Schmoff, you do like, I watch a couple of videos.

• 2:08:30Speaker 01

  I shot 10 rounds.

• 2:08:32Speaker 05

  No, I mean, but, but it was a job I liked a lot. So, you know, I, I studied it pretty in depth and I, I remember years ago, like when I first started, I just remember thinking about like Lee Harvey Oswald, you know, like the, for lack of a better term, the logistics, I don't know if that's the right word of those shots and it just with everything at the time and the rounds and the timing. And I remember shooting a bolt rifle at the time and just being like, dude, either this dude, and I don't mean, you know, look, he's a session, but I mean technically, I'm like, either this dude was a savage, like just really technically proficient.

• 2:09:11Speaker 04

  Ripping it.

• 2:09:12Speaker 05

  Or the story is not true, you know, and I, and I'm just saying that was my takeaway from doing the logistics of, and then looking at the, the, the angle and the freaking distance and the moving target speed. And I'm like, I'm not buying it.

• 2:09:28Speaker 04

  Even the governor.

• 2:09:29Speaker 01

  Standing where in Dallas, it was in Dallas, right?

• 2:09:31Speaker 05

  Yeah, it was, yeah, Dallas.

• 2:09:34Speaker 01

  Do they have, do they have it all marked out still? Like, can you see where?

• 2:09:38Speaker 05

  No, no, because they got rid of one of the buildings, I believe.

• 2:09:41Speaker 04

  Well, no, they still have the, uh, like they mark it in the street. There's like a little like tape.

• 2:09:45Speaker 05

  I thought something changed though, that if I'm not mistaken, something changed. And the reason I'm saying that is I think something changed. And again, I could be wrong, but I thought something changed so that they couldn't recreate it perfectly.

• 2:09:59Speaker 04

  So the book, the book repository is still there?

• 2:10:03Speaker 05

  Um, and it's funny because they have a plaque there on it. We're like, it's like a thing. No matter how many times they replace it, people still carve out with knives allegedly. Like Lee Harvey Oswald allegedly. It's like fucking.

• 2:10:16Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 2:10:16Speaker 05

  Yeah. But, uh, yeah, there's, there's, there's a lot of shit about that. That's just kind of sideways.

• 2:10:23Speaker 04

  What's one like your level of proficiency proficiency and still saying it's like, man, that is, I would have trouble with that fucking, or could you replicate that for yourself? Were you like, I can do it, but maybe like one out of 10 times.

• 2:10:34Speaker 05

  I, from what, again, it's been a while. I don't remember.

• 2:10:37Speaker 03

  There's two perfect shots, right?

• 2:10:39Speaker 05

  I, from what I remember, from what I remember, and again, it's been a long time, but again, there was that one point where I like looked at the data. And then was like, oh, let me try and replicate this. And again, obviously I wasn't in the same location. I wasn't at the same distance. But I just remember at the time, looking at everything and thinking,

• 2:10:59Speaker 05

  I don't think I could do it. Like I, you know what I mean? I remember, I remember being pretty good at that time and thinking, I don't think I could pull this off. And, and again, I, from what I remember, I remember thinking, maybe in perfect conditions, maybe after a couple rehearsals, you know, if it was like a competition. But, but, but I remember at the time thinking.

• 2:11:20Speaker 06

  Well, he did hit, I mean. That was the thing. The governor even was like, was throwing shade on the official story. He's like, that didn't happen that way.

• 2:11:27Speaker 04

  Oh, really?

• 2:11:28Speaker 06

  Like one of the, one of the two guys who got shot was like, that's not.

• 2:11:32Speaker 05

  It was almost like the governor was like the girl that puffed daddy shot in the face.

• 2:11:36Speaker 03

  So allegedly two.

• 2:11:38Speaker 04

  Allegedly two.

• 2:11:38Speaker 03

  Allegedly two, but supposedly three.

• 2:11:42Speaker 04

  Yeah. And how different is, uh, the bolt action back then to like a bolt action?

• 2:11:47Speaker 05

  There's something else. If I'm not mistaken, Lee Harvey Oswald, I think he was left-handed.

• 2:11:54Speaker 05

  Really? There was something weird that uh- Was he using a lefty rifle? No, I'm trying to remember, but there was some factor, again, I don't remember what it was, but there was some additional factor of his, of him manipulating the gun, I don't remember what it is. Um, I, I shot a bolt action gun left-handed.

• 2:12:12Speaker 04

  What the fuck? No, it's way weirder, cuz Oswald was right-handed but had a left master eye and shot from the left shoulders.

• 2:12:20Speaker 05

  Oh, that's, that's what it was.

• 2:12:22Speaker 04

  That's fucking weird.

• 2:12:24Speaker 05

  That's what it was, so if you- Joe Blake, yeah, I don't understand.

• 2:12:27Speaker 04

  Okay, so you're right, you're right-hand dominant, you're right, if you're right-handed, you will still train right eye dominant, dominant, especially sniper position. He had LBJ whispering in his right ear.

• 2:12:40Speaker 05

  This is- He shot right-handed still with left shoulder? He's shooting, what he's doing was-

• 2:12:45Speaker 04

  Left, right-handed, left shoulder, left eye.

• 2:12:48Speaker 05

  Oh, I hate that. So personally, personally, so this is now what I remember. That's what's being said, I'm pretty confident, I could be wrong here, they didn't see him fucking shooting. I'm pretty confident that if he was left eye dominant, I'm pretty confident he shot it left-handed. Which means he would have to manipulate the bolt, this was what I recreated. He would have to manipulate the bolt uh, over- Yeah, across the- Across the, over the scope, rack it left-handed, which I used to shoot a bolt, this is why I remember it. I used to shoot a bolt gun left-handed because I'm left eye dominant, so that's why I remember he was the same as me. And I remember thinking, dude, shooting a bolt action, a right-hand bolt action, left-handed,

• 2:13:32Speaker 05

  adds quite a bit of effort. Not only does it add a ton of effort to go over the bolt and rack the bolt, so that adds a ton of time, but much more importantly, if you are right-handed shooting a bolt gun, you can fire, right? And you just go from the trigger, up- Back down. You really don't break or move your position very much. So it allows you to stay boom, boom. Left handed now, you're going boom. You have to break completely off the scope, racket, and then come in and completely, completely re-acquire your target. For the speed of the follow-up shots. There's no freaking, there's no way.

• 2:14:17Speaker 05

  Two and a half seconds, I think. There's, there's, and again, that's, that was the part that I was like, there's no way. No, I heard one thing that I, I found out after I made my-

• 2:14:27Speaker 01

  That's your thumbnail right there.

• 2:14:30Speaker 05

  After I made my JFK video, I was made aware of- JFK secrets, question mark.

• 2:14:36Speaker 05

  Tyler K, JFK secrets, question mark.

• 2:14:41Speaker 04

  Two fake seals disprove the JFK narrative.

• 2:14:46Speaker 05

  Officer comes clean on the JFK assassination.

• 2:14:49Speaker 03

  LBJ did it, confirm.

• 2:14:53Speaker 05

  Clickbait, bisexual. The FBI will come to my door, again.

• 2:15:00Speaker 05

  And they're like, fuck you watching karaoke. It's literally just like the meme of like, you, you look through the little like, uh, portal. It was like, and then it's black.

• 2:15:12Speaker 04

  I think on that note, Travis is gonna close this out, but before Travis closes out, where do we find you beautiful sons of bitches on social media?

• 2:15:19Speaker 01

  Uh, I'm just AJ Buckley, AJ Buckley, and Instagram is probably the best way. And then our, our new Two Fake Seals is, is a-

• 2:15:30Speaker 05

  Two Fake Seals? The one thing I meant to ask about before we started the podcast. Two Fake Seals, our new podcast and show that we just started releasing, which is basically about, um, it's just AJ and I, you know?

• 2:15:43Speaker 01

  The genesis of the show was when the, uh, the China blues over-

• 2:15:49Speaker 01

  Our house in South Carolina and my neighbors, they, they kept calling.

• 2:15:53The Fat Electrician?

  The China balloons over here.

• 2:15:54Speaker 01

  Oh, the surveillance.

• 2:15:55Speaker 06

  Literally over his house, yeah.

• 2:15:56Speaker 01

  Um, you could see it from the back there when they, um, so the, the, my neighbors were calling.

• 2:16:02The Fat Electrician?

  All, all the Chinese guys, holy shit, he's holding a hat up.

• 2:16:07Speaker 06

  That, that is impressive.

• 2:16:10Speaker 06

  Can we get an Eli, holy shit.

• 2:16:14Speaker 01

  But we, uh, the neighbors kept calling me going like, AJ, what, what, what do we do? What's, what's gonna happen? I'm like, dude, I don't know, man, I'm an actor.

• 2:16:25Speaker 01

  I think people just assume because I play Sonny Quinn and I'm a Texan on the show that I have all the answers. And people generally will, in our neighborhood will still call me or in general like, what, what's gonna happen? I'm like, I, I don't know, dude, I sit in the trailer, I wear makeup, I have a stunt double, I drink a latte. Like, I'm not the.

• 2:16:40Speaker 06

  He's going down there running to your house and like, what do we do?

• 2:16:44The Fat Electrician?

  That's another show.

• 2:16:45Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 2:16:45The Fat Electrician?

  A full on another TV show. An up-class neighborhood where an actor that played a Navy SEAL becomes the badass.

• 2:16:53Speaker 06

  I think it's called Galaxy Quest, which is a great underrated film.

• 2:16:59Speaker 01

  Well, we came back and, uh, I was like talking to Tyler, I'm like, dude, you should, the post SEAL team, we should have you actually taking me out into the real world. And cause you're, you know, been a survivalist, reading books in this and prepping and stuff since you were like 10 years old. I'm like, and we'll just go across and you fucking teach me how to do all this shit. And we'll stop off and talk to preppers and, you know, uh, learn. Just learn shit along the way. And, and then Tyler's like, we should call it Two Fake Seals. I'm like, yeah, and then we Googled.

• 2:17:28The Fat Electrician?

  Such a good name.

• 2:17:28Speaker 01

  And then, uh, and then we, we, um, we ended up working with Ford and, and at Total Off Road and they're building the big, we actually pick up the Big Richard in Baton Rouge.

• 2:17:37The Fat Electrician?

  Yeah, two days, yeah.

• 2:17:39Speaker 01

  Yeah. So we go pick it up, drive the, the, the truck, the tremor. To Total Off Road in South Carolina. They're gonna do a big build on it and it'll be a mobile podcast. Yeah, we'll be driving around. So we'll come through here again with we'll have, we're gonna have like the toy trailer that we pull it and

• 2:17:57Speaker 05

  That'll be the studio.

• 2:17:58Speaker 01

  That'll be the studio and the Little Richard and then it'll have the it's it the bill that they're doing on the some of the stuff that they

• 2:18:04Speaker 05

  It's crazy.

• 2:18:04Speaker 01

  It's pretty. So it's gonna be cool. And then each at the end of each season will raffle off.

• 2:18:08Speaker 05

  The big Richard.

• 2:18:09Speaker 01

  That'll be Richard, Big Richard 2.0. So and really like the whole overland community and stuff. I really

• 2:18:15Speaker 05

  Off grid, overland, self reliance space. We just, we basically wanna freaking

• 2:18:20Speaker 01

  Do shit that we love.

• 2:18:21Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, but we wanna take the, you know, kind of the, you know, prepper used to be, dude, I've been a survivalist nerd since I was a little kid. Gun fanatic and and I've always been that guy. And, you know, COVID changed things because COVID, it was like, oh, you were a weird survivalist prepper person.

• 2:18:36Speaker 01

  Now we're cool.

• 2:18:37Speaker 05

  We became cool. Just like, dude, I was a starting wars nerd when it wasn't Guess who is totally

• 2:18:44Speaker 05

  I had, I shit you not, I probably had a hundred thousand rounds in my garage. Right? I got a thousand guns. I mean, crazy shit. And then I'm like, sitting there and I'm like, toilet paper. I didn't see this coming. You know what I mean? Like, I have everything, but I didn't stock up on toilet paper. A mild concern. I was like, yeah, I mean, true. I was like, you know, A hundred thousand rounds means you have your neighbor's toilet paper. But it was just, the point is, Todd, what do we do? You give me your toilet paper. We can call this.

• 2:19:20Speaker 05

  Did he say what?

• 2:19:23Speaker 05

  Guess who's king of toilet paper now, motherfucker? What am I gonna eat in the apocalypse? Your food.

• 2:19:29Speaker 01

  I was like, Todd, when we were just discussing ideas of show, I'm like, well, what will we do? And he's like, we're not gonna, no one's gonna go out to the woods. So we're gonna, I'm gonna teach you how to like survive in the city. I'm like, what we do? He goes, we're taking over a fucking Walmart. That Walmart is gonna be ours.

• 2:19:40Speaker 05

  I was like, Survival situation? I'm like, dude, I'll take over Walmart. I'll be the king of Walmart.

• 2:19:48Speaker 05

  A solid concrete building with three entries? Dude, I can hold that. I can hold that with my homies. And then, dude, you want, you want cereal? Deal with the king of Walmart. King Tyler. Whatever, King Tyler. Tyler Grant. King of lost prevention.

• 2:20:11The Fat Electrician?

  You're not gonna have the thousand dollar shopping list.

• 2:20:13Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. You want your Walmart. Count Chocula, you know. So it was just one of those things where it people now know it fires. I mean, dude, part of LA burned down. So the point being is what people thought was impossible, they're now seeing, dude, anything can happen. So just that mentality, you're no longer the weird prepper. People realize that anything can happen at any time. And I think people are ready to start listening, how to take care of themselves and not be in a position where they constantly have to rely on other people, let alone the government.

• 2:20:47Speaker 01

  But also too, like, take it, like, take away the doom and gloom from it and, like, really play into the comedy of it. Like, if they're laughing, they're listening, like, enter, like, have fun.

• 2:20:55Speaker 05

  Yeah, not make it so serious.

• 2:20:56Speaker 01

  Not make it so serious.

• 2:20:57Speaker 05

  That's the show.

• 2:20:58Speaker 01

  Like, have, like, you know.

• 2:20:59Speaker 05

  Have fun.

• 2:21:00Speaker 01

  Have fun, take the piss out of me while I make an ass, complete ass of myself and do that. And then just, like, we were, even today, where we're, like, talking about how fun it's gonna be just to, like, go do shit that we wanna go do, like, and go, you know, kinda like what you guys.

• 2:21:27Speaker 01

  And then sort of through the POV of me learning this stuff on the way, will we have that sort of, as the viewer, will be through my eyes, learning how to fucking survive in the real world. That's a great idea.
