Okay, the other thing that Jen sent me was so interesting that I went into a deep, dark dive last night. So I'm going to share this story with you. You guys can jump in, stop me anytime. And it's that the first child influencer memoir is here. And a young girl named Sherry Frank is releasing her tell-all experience as the daughter of a popular family mommy blogger, Ruby Frankie.
Have you heard of this case?
Okay, so the backstory is Ruby Frankie was a popular YouTube mommy blogger. Her content showed all aspects of her six kids' lives as they grew up, and it presented her as a loving mom that gained millions and millions of followers. However, in August 2023, she was arrested on charges of child abuse and neglect after one of her children escaped and was found malnourished and abused.
Investigations revealed disturbing details about the harsh and abusive treatment her children endured. The case shocked many given her public image as this great mom on her mommy blog. Ruby was a member of the Mormon Church. Her Mormon faith was a central part of her public persona and she often referenced it in her videos, sharing how her religious beliefs influenced her parenting style.
Fast forward to today, her eldest daughter, Sherry Frankie, is now releasing a memoir titled The House of My Mother. And she's become an advocate for child influencers. And these are quotes to lawmakers. moral or ethical family vlogger. Wow.
Yeah. And I think it's the same as what we say about couples, the shinier the image. Like when I looked through her Instagram and it was just the happiest, best family, the more they portray that, the more I know that nefarious shit is going on behind the scenes.
And she has, you know what? I do have another bit of tea. There's a woman that was arrested with her that helped her abuse these children. And it's this Mormon life coach. And her kids and people think they're lesbian together.
We have voice memos. Yeah, we could lighten it up with a couple voice memos. And up first, we've got Caleb.
All right, Kylie, last one. Okay. Our last one is from Sam. You know what I've fucking had it with?
We've got merch that they can get. We have merch. Patreon YouTube memberships just launched. I have news.
Kylie, what did I say about IHIP News? You said IHIP News, a daily or twice daily podcast serving digestible political news in short doses.
Um, obviously I grew up all around them. I was a public school kid, but I always found the kids from those schools were some of the like craziest partiers or just like the opposite of what that school thinks that they are compared to. I agree with that.
I've got a really great email from a listener that I want to read you guys today. This is from Henry, and he says, I am a perpetually tanned, radiant, hilarious, and undeniably gorgeous gay man. Naturally, this makes me the quintessential GBF, gay best friend, for every sorority sister, basic baddie, and beyond. Think of me as the centurion card of the zesty femme twink community.
Exclusive, fabulous, and always in demand. But as time marches on, the very same girls whose hair I once held back as they sacrificed their dignity to the porcelain thrones of the diviest dive bars are now settling down and getting married. And here I am about to step into my third wedding as a, quote, bridesmaid. And let me tell you, I've had it.
These friends of mine, these girls who hump pride floats, bedazzle their Stanley tumblers with rainbows and pop their pussies to Kim Petras, transform into entirely different creatures the moment a wedding is on the horizon. It's giving Princess Fiona turning into an ogre after sunset.
Weddings, I've come to realize, are a toxic breeding ground for gender norms, thinly veiled homophobia, and relentless capitalism. Not only am I shelling out hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars on travel, gifts, wardrobe, but I'm also subjected to condescending advice on how to be a man at these family functions. Quote, You have to wear a suit. Maybe go lighter on the makeup.
Would you mind standing on the guy's side? Excuse me, bitch. I am doing you a favor by being here. Sit me in the front row like the VIP I am. And if you don't want me at your wedding, or if you want me at your wedding, then let me be me.
All right, Kylie. Okay, so today I've got some great stuff teed up that Jen has been sending me. And we're going to start with this clip that she sent me on Instagram.
I ain't going to lie to you. I'm going to be straight honest. When that happened, he came over by the truck. He was standing up there. I pulled out a shotgun, opened up the back door, and I went, boom. I don't know if I hit him. I didn't hit the truck. No more holes in the truck. I don't know if I hit him or not.
I was so scared he was going to come in the fucking house, dude, and hurt my family again. The guy was sick, brother. The guy was sick. He hated me. I didn't care. I hated him, too. I ain't paid back a bitch.
I see the boy, like I said, with 35 years. It's a long, long, long time, you know. I prospered and the poor boy Did he get jail time out of this shit for the 85 you know of? He was at Mansfield for like three years. Over the 85 murder. Yeah. So from 88 through 91. I don't wish nobody. The boy is innocent. I swear, man. So how did it turn out that James is the one that got in trouble and not you?
I don't know. I swear to God, man, I do not know. But I just, we went, uh, they come and got us. We come all the way back to the hall, all the way back to Southwest. So we went to court. I remember sitting in there and it was just. Then one person on the end of the table was asking questions. The prosecutors was actually on their side, but they just told me to go home.
Why James got blamed, I don't. I told the whole truth, nothing but the truth, Ben. And why James got, I didn't know James got in trouble. Not until you got a hold of me.
He took the blame, huh? I just love right there. That's love. He knew what we was going through, man. He's innocent on the 85. We all had parts of it. Not just him. I live with it every day. Think about it. And it made me a better person, baby. Made me love more. Made me realize what you got. I'm so sorry. I did not know. I'm so sorry.
I'll be straight up, okay? The guy was a sick bastard. The guy was just pervert in the fucking head. You know what he told me? This was a side of Jack that Mick had never seen before.
We get down again in the bed, you know. He beat my sister so bad. My sister's been through a lot.
That's what led up to it. He beat my sister so bad, and we just had enough, man. We had enough. We couldn't do it no more.
Like I said, I told you that seven years of hell
Hi, Charlie. I'm the Tri-Cities High School chapter president in Washington, and I wanted to ask for your advice on a project that my chapter started doing with one of the Richland Library board members. And my chapter is trying to find a way to put more conservative and Christian books into the libraries.
And we're trying to set up a format so that other groups can put these books in libraries too. And I just wanted to ask you on what the best way was to convince the libraries to allow these books because some of the library districts banned me in 2022 for refusing to wear a mask in a public library. And at the time, the libraries didn't have a mask mandate. It was already taken down.
But some people, some of the liberal people in the libraries were forcing the We're forcing the public, everybody in the public, to wear masks when they go in libraries, and I refused to do that, so I got banned from all the mid-Columbia libraries for a year.
But if you could give some advice on how to convince the libraries to allow conservative and Christian books in libraries, how would I look and start doing that?
Hey, Mr. Gates, Mr. Kirk, I'm really big fans. My name is Caleb. I'm 17 from upstate New York, and I lean very Austro-libertarian. My question would be on big business. Is big business what's hurting Americans, or is it big government's support of big business and the force of government allowing business to hurt Americans?
hey, Charlie, what are you doing for your skin? It's just glowing.
So plug the thought crime. That's such a fun show to watch you guys do. Thank you. So, so we're here in, in, in Raleigh, North Carolina, but tomorrow, no Sunday, we'll be arriving in Milwaukee on our way home to Minnesota. We're going to do some vote chasing and, And just thought you'd like to know that.
But the question is, how do you overcome the challenges that so much traveling does for you to be connected with your kids as they're growing up and with your wife? when you're spending so much time on your busy schedule?
For more on many of these stories and news you can trust, go to CharlieKirk.com.
Hi, Charlie. It was great seeing you. So as we're about to start Shabbat, Michelle and I have decided to participate in it coming up with the new year. And so we want to ask you what your favorite activities are and how you spend your digital Sabbath.
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
Hi, Charlie. How are you doing?
How are you? March Madness. We want to know how your bracket is doing. Michelle has a different bracket. She got Gonzaga to win.
Nope, that was our question. Yeah, we just wanted to see how we were doing with March Madness. You have another question, Michelle? No. No, we're good.
Yeah, you too.
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
What's their main platform, you think?
In a lot of ways, it is.
Do they ask if you're an organ donor too? Basically.
Fat Ticket. Uptick gout, but it's okay.
But whatever because we have the chairs, so it wouldn't matter. We have the chairs.
Yeah, we're in the end credits for sure.
The blue for real.
You know, it's funny you say that about chairs, because I think it's the El Capitan Theater in Hollywood. Those chairs, bitch, mind you, my whole family, all of us huge, enormous, sitting, and we have to fill up one row, but there's two people sitting on the inside. I felt so bad for those two people. Girl, girl. Me sandwiched between my man and my brother. Please.
I mean, my ass barely fit in the chair. Tell me why I'm feeling bad for the chairs. I'm like, these poor chairs. I get it. It's a monument. Whatever. Let's get an extender. I need an extender on this bitch.
It would be a lot easier to change the chair than it would be to change me.
Yeah, a lot of them died from the flu. That's what I'm saying. That's why I'm like, evolution is okay to some extent.
That's what I'm saying. You know what's funny? Yesterday when I was at that shoot I was telling you about, there was a part where they wanted me to sit on these fake speakers to pose and stuff. And they looked tiny and fragile. And as I was walking over, they were like, yeah, just sit and you can lean. And I was like, you want me to fully sit on it or lean?
It's a treasure map.
And they were like, no, no, go ahead, sit on it. And when I'm walking up, it's like a crew of all men who set it up. And I'm walking up, I'm like, is there a weight limit on these? And all of the men go... And then I was like, I'm fucking around. Hey, boys.
None of them know how to answer. That's like me saying, do I look fat? And then they don't know what to say.
That's what I'm saying. I made this joke on Trixie's channel when she put me in that horrifying drag. And when I made this joke, I was like, a running bit I have in my head is that any time I meet a celebrity that looks nothing like me and is built nothing like me, I go, well, we're about the same build, so where do you shop?
And I said, if I ever meet Sydney Sweeney, you bet your ass I'm going to make that joke to her. And I was laughing. I said, because I'm imagining I say it to her, that hurts her feelings, and that makes me laugh. And then I made that joke. Someone clipped it, and people were like, I think it's kind of fucked up that you want to hurt people's feelings.
Her feelings are going to be hurt because of her fat phobia. That's funny. Yeah. I was like, when I make that joke, that's my way of like, it's almost forcing you to confront your internalized biases immediately. Yeah. Live in front of me.
And then I'm like, why? Is it bad to be built like me?
And you said.
what are we gonna talk about we're not we don't and we don't need to um am i the only one who yes shut the fuck up most oftentimes well then i make those jokes and i'm like you guys you guys say you like jokes you say you want to hang out with us yeah that's how we joke hello that's why i'm like there's nothing wrong with that joke it's not gonna she's beautiful and i'm beautiful that's the funny part is that it would be offensive to her to look like me yeah and i think that's funny yeah it's okay
I think that's funny. I'm the butt of the joke in that sense, and I'm laughing.
That's why if I see Jacob Elordi, I'm going to say the same thing.
Yeah, she is.
She doesn't just do it to me by the fucking way. Everybody's like, oh, she finally texts Drew back. She doesn't text anybody back.
That's me not reading the room.
That's it. No other context.
The ones above that were you asking us to shoot stuff for your tour. Yeah. And then we couldn't do it.
Yes, BTS.
Oh, it's never forget until.
Yeah, but that was the last text exchange we had, which was how long ago?
That's what she was like. We should do a show like The View.
Everyone was like, what? What?
And if we do do a show, I don't think it'll be like The View.
Sometimes me and Brittany are like, if Caleb's in the group chat, we're like, Caleb will respond. And then the two of us will respond after.
And you said, and I'm also gay, so careful what you say next. I said, he, him, homosexual, thank you.
I know one thing about you, you're going to respond, which I love. I love that about you.
Me too.
yeah that's too i guess like i could say that but no it's like there's like a list of people in my head where i'm like these are priority people you and britney are both on there yeah so like there are people i'm like i have to respond to these people within the next day or two max yeah some people i'm like okay i'll respond to that when i have an answer and i just forget and then i feel awful yeah because i'm like ah fuck
What?
I'm glad you clarified. I wasn't sure.
With just a random person, or was it someone in Congress?
How'd they get in there?
Filibust-a-nut.
E-mas.
Right.
And part of you has to respect that.
You have to. At some point, you're like, that's funny.
That's so funny.
They're so unserious about so many things. Yeah, I just love it. That's why I love y'all.
Oh, no. That I don't regret at all.
It's posting about it for my friends. Maybe I should have thought a little bit more on.
That's why I told Trixie that. I was like, everybody who says they want to be friends with you and Caleb, I'm like, good luck. What? My feelings are vibranium and sometimes my hands shaking a little bit.
Right. Same.
Exactly. God help us all. For real.
You know what I mean?
No, that's true. It's appealing to what you think is this exclusive club to get into. It's similar in the sense of I recently posted a video because for some reason I've had women lately be like, You know, they log on to TikTok for the first time and they see me and then they're like, have you ever tried being nice to them? And I was like, no, but feel free.
Shut up. One thing about you, you love a chit chat.
Didn't people try that for like centuries? Yeah. I mean, go ahead. They're still doing it now. What the fuck? I was like, I mean, and I made a video because I was like, I'm just like tired of hearing that because I've been doing this for too long. But I literally said, I'm like, you can be nice to them all you want.
I'm going to tell them to suck my dick from the back because the side of them disgusts me. That's how I'm going to handle it.
Kayla loves small talk. I love to make a little friend. I know. What's funny is you say, I just say whatever I want. You're right. That is true. When we were in the room next door, I was like, oh, sit down. And you're like, I'm going to go read my book outside. You don't need me, dude.
give me top sloppy style I was like fucking stop asking me to be nice I'm never going to I'm gonna hurt their fucking feelings every time because I want to like sometimes when people I've done a few talks lately where they're like what do you have to say to people that say you're mean and then I literally go I am mean That's true. I am very mean. It depends on what your goals are.
Some of your goals is like, oh, I want them to love me or like me or respect me. My goal is to hurt their fucking feelings. My goal is to make you upset because of what I said.
Because you're being horrible. My goal is to be horrible enough that you get so embarrassed you never go on the internet again. That's my goal. That's me. That's what I'm bringing. I say that so plainly, and women still are like,
wow so it's just like your whole thing it's just like razzing men but like have we thought about maybe what they're going to be doing like no this is why i don't like women i've been saying i've been i don't like women i don't i really don't i've just had so many in a row lately of women asking me always like oh have you ever thought about like you know what about the good men i'm like where
Yeah. Are they? Let me know. Tell them to come forward. What the fuck? I can't see them as far as the eye can see. Yeah. Women are a problem. It's true. Yeah. I've been saying. I've been a problem. Yeah. And for some reason. You are a problem. You are my problem.
And you're mine.
I think that's about something else, though, no?
I have some fun facts about you. Okay. Facts about me? Yeah, they're fun facts.
I guess it depends on who you ask, though. It says your college fraternity gave you the Outstanding Philanthropist Award. That's funny because philanthropic is not the word I think of when I hear about you. Well, what do you call me hanging out with you, then?
What do they call it when those – I almost made a really awful joke, and you can bleep it. I was going to say, what do you call it when they have those teachers that hang out with those kids?
Yeah. All those kids that never hang out at the lunch table.
That's even worse. Gagged. Clockty clock. It's actually out of everyone, not just the frat.
For fucking what? Well, I... I know you do a lot of charity. I was going to say, you're going to feel bad. As I said, on a serious note, Caleb does a lot of philanthropic work.
That's cool.
Which is nice.
Yeah, you are very philanthropic, and I mean that very literally. I once sent Caleb a meme on Instagram that said, you ever look at someone and just know they were super involved on campus? I said that to you, and then he said, yeah, go ahead and block me.
You're like, guys, we have to go to the lunch meeting.
In college is crazy.
And I was like, we need a different voice in there. In your frat, did they kiss each other a lot?
No, honestly, I was just like, as soon as you left, no, we don't ever take offense to shit like that, but as soon as you left, Adam was like, I love how he just does what he wants. Like, he'd just be doing shit. I was like, no, for real.
Wir machen eine kulinarische Reise.
Yeah.
A man discovers empathy.
The most obvious trains of thoughts to us.
If it works, it works.
So rock the fuck on. However you receive the message.
Have you seen that clip of Logan Paul where he's like finding out he's having a daughter?
That's how I feel. Jesus Christ. Anytime I see anything involving them.
I know.
Or say no homo. Yeah, that's funny. Let's take it back. No, but I'm dead serious. Let's throw it back to the 2010s.
Yeah, let's be for real about it then.
Not to be the woke friend, but racism, bad.
That's how I feel sometimes when I've gone on interviews and they're like older white people talking to me. And they're like, did you know that this presidency is like scary? Yeah, I did.
Yeah, I sensed that a tiny bit.
Right, yeah. That's what I've gathered from all the loss of rights, not just this past year.
Things have been weird. In 2016, I, that was the first time I actively remember like fighting people on Twitter. Even people I knew personally, but I was going ape shit on Twitter. Like,
just absolutely decimating anybody that was talking shit you know they were all like oh i'm gonna write in harambe like people were literally writing in voting for harambe that year yeah and that was the first year i could vote yeah and i was like you guys think this is a fucking game i'm on my twitter you think this shit's a game it's not i've been doing that shit forever yeah well before i had a platform before anybody gave a fuck yeah i remember one time i fought with a guy for like two days straight and i went to high school with him yeah
That is true. So let's enjoy that. And I mean that in the nicest, sweetest way possible. It's just like you're always advocating for yourself. And you're also very honest. I have so much respect for how honest you are. In such a sweet way, too. And a perfect example is what I brought up on your show when we did the Minion episode. When I said when we get dinner and we have fun, when you're done...
His name's Kevin.
And not the worst Kevin I've met, by the way. I've met a couple of terrible Kevins.
Sounds good. Y'all. They couldn't even spell very well, but that's perfect.
Okay. Another fun fact. It says you make your own ranch dressing from scratch.
Still to this day?
Right.
So yours is like, is it like when you host? That's when you like to put out a fun dip?
Yeah.
Celery feels like it's fighting me back when I eat it.
It's just a taxing endeavor to eat.
Hey, everyone, and welcome back to another episode of the Comment Section Show, starring me, your fave, everybody knows me, who cares about me. On to the guests. Today we have a ghost that's haunting me at this fucking point. The one and only Caleb Herron. Woo! Ah!
And then you douse it in something that doesn't make it taste anything like what it's supposed to taste like.
I was going to say, or a strong hummus.
All of a sudden.
No, yeah, I was going to say that for sure. Either that or the Brussels sprouts.
We should get a green. No nachos. We should do the green.
White and skinny?
What are you eating with carmy from the fucking bear?
You're done. So you're like, well, I'm going to head out. So you guys have a nice night.
There's only three halloumis, and you eat two of them? Yeah, yeah. And the other one's hanging out, and you're like, well, if no one else is going to...
Yeah. So you guys hang. I got to bounce. Love you, though.
Oh my god, I was going to say that. Oh, thank you for hearing that.
What am I supposed to be? What am I, an ape?
And I love that.
What am I, an ape eating my fucking leafy greens?
Oh, that's my enrichment?
We like to open it up and put treats in between so that they know.
That's how I feel when I order a soda and nobody else does. When I do that, I'm like, oh, no fucking community. Right, perfect.
As we get older, we love that.
Yeah.
They can't stop all of us.
And that was the French Revolution.
I hate when we share a lot of things. Like, I don't mind sharing apps, but I don't like when that's the whole meal.
Like, I went to dinner with my friends the other day. My skinny white friends.
Love them down. We did have drinks, so maybe, I thought maybe, oh, okay, yeah, like, everyone's going to get, we're like, oh, we'll just share. Right. Right.
You got what you wanted in the way that you wanted it. I just want, yeah, I want it all.
Me too. That's why I love going to dinner with you and Brittany.
Because we eat, we eat for real.
That is true.
I can bring up a couple. Yeah. To bring up a couple tables.
i uh well you keep refusing to go to disneyland with us yeah i won't do that right i'm gonna get you there eventually i'm not doing that there was on space mountain i don't know if you know this i don't know if the chat knows this either but literally they have a weight limit on that roller coaster yeah so which they do not specify but here's the thing you get in they strap you strap in
They drive you forward. And if the seat screams. They weigh you right there. If it's too heavy, they make you go left. My family has been stopped, I'm not kidding, six times.
They go left, they take you out, and they split you up so your big fat asses aren't all fucking together. And they literally, one time, I'm not kidding.
And they know me.
We were all sitting there. We were all sitting in there. And they were like, the guy down at the bottom who's strapping, checking everyone's belts, he's looking up at the control tower. He goes, how much? No? Too heavy. Too heavy. Too heavy. Too heavy. Too heavy. I said, hey, we were doing the first two times. To the left. To the left. To the left. So too heavy? Yeah. Too heavy.
Go ahead to the left. Go ahead to the left.
And then the first time it happened to us, we were so confused. And then no one was telling us the answer because no one wants to tell us that you guys are too fucking fat, so we have to split you up. I said, oh.
Okay, perfect. Happiest place on earth.
I mean, and did I have two churros in my hand at the time? Yes. Is it relevant to the weight of the roller coaster? I don't think so. Yeah. I think, once again, I'm leaning back to your fat ticket idea with chairs.
Let's extend it.
Yeah.
Yeah, you'd rather go to a restaurant.
It's okay. I'm going to bully Caleb into it eventually.
Just start making shit up. Oh, I would love that. Me and Jason were talking about the Pope the other day because she was like, what's his deal? And I was like, what do you mean? And she was like, what does he do? And I go, I think you're asking the wrong person because I also wasn't raised Catholic or siblings.
Yeah, as you are probably mostly familiar with. But I told her, I think, and I was like, I just made a stab in the dark. I was like, I think he's like the head guy, but he's not the main guy.
So the big guy picks the head guy, and then all your problems, you lay at the feet of the head guy, and he goes, big guy says it's cool. That's my loose interpretation of Catholicism.
Yeah, that's another... I was like, well... Oh, a straight guy from Chicago?
Yeah, when I watch him go on that balcony and they do that wave and then everyone's crying, I was like, well, it's giving coal, obviously. We know that.
Yeah, of course. And that's where I was going with it. I watch it and I'm like, man, I wish I could feel...
I know. I found that. So yeah, I was just like, I don't, I don't give a fuck, but like, I'm happy for y'all. Sure. Catholics.
Yeah. Do what you got to do.
And also if you were the Pope, When you just start kind of like making shit up, I just start saying shit.
I just start saying shit.
I love it.
They're like, he's just like the last one.
Sunday and Easter. We'll see you then.
Yeah, what's the point of the job?
Okay, I have other fun facts for you. This one, it says you were on the Missouri State Homecoming Planning Committee in 2014, and then later in 2016, you were on the college homecoming court. Once again, super involved in campus. And did you win?
Yeah.
How fun. Another one.
Damn, and that didn't work?
Well, that's ironic because they can't watch that because gay.
All the alleged gay allegations.
I lost.
When I was in high school, I ran for senior ASB council, but I wanted to run for something for college specifically. I didn't even really want to do it, but I was like, well, I'm going to do it because it'll look good on my college application. And so I picked treasurer or secretary because it was like the one with the least amount of responsibilities. So I was like, I just want that one.
Like that's the one I want to do. But like in order to do that, like the year before you had to be like on someone else's team to help them win. So this girl asked to ask me to be like her representative. I was like, sure. And they had this big fair and each one, it was, there was always a theme and the theme this year was like Disney Pixar.
So you had to like have a booth and then decorate it like fucking crazy. Give a speech. Everybody had to be dressed like a character. Hers was toy story.
So she was like, yeah, like, so I'm going to be Jesse and like my boyfriend's going to be Woody. And then like someone else was like, okay. I was like, okay, okay. T T T. And she was like, you don't have to tell me, but like you could just come just somewhere in that realm. I'm like, okay.
Next day I show up to school and I had overalls and like a red, like long sleeve and the overalls were like too small and too tight. And then I had my mom's cowboy boots on. And then I walked in and I had like, just like a stick with me. And she was like, who are you supposed to be? And then I was like, I'm stinky Pete.
And then she was like, why did you pick him out of all the, like, she was like, you could be Bo Peep or you could be like, I'm like, yeah, no, for sure. I think I'm gonna be singing. And then she was so upset that I dressed like that. I even put dirt on my face and everything, because I just thought it was part of it.
For sure. So the tiramisu status?
And the thing is, too, that they would pick who they thought was popular in that grade so they could help them win. Like, go and tell people, hey, vote for so-and-so, whatever. And I was like, girl, if you think I'm not going to clock votes in this, you're crazy.
Trust me when I say. Yeah. I was like, I got a butt flap on my overalls. Like, she was so annoyed at me that she made me sit in the back so no one could see me.
And she was like, and my sister asked me, she's like, why would you dress as him? And I was like, well, I already had the overalls. Like it was funny. One plus one.
I'm all about a, I'm all about a bit.
Why? They're freaks.
Like swingers?
100%.
He wears her lips.
And her ears with the pearl earrings.
Till the room stinks at Mr. Potato Head's house. Okay, it says, when you were 15, you got accused of blasphemy on a youth mission trip for saying a salt shaker had magic powers. Yes.
Is there a place you're really trying to get in, but they're just resisting your charm, your southern charm, Midwest charm?
So we're having you build a pool house. Oh, we're digging.
Kissing Kate Barlow?
Yeah, they say they give you full water and you get to go home early. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You get a cold shower too.
He doesn't take kindly to that.
He was probably worse than my salt shaker thing.
I've been to church camp a few times. What? Really? I sure have. What were you doing over there?
what were you doing over there uh being a fucking nuisance apparently uh when i was with church camp adam knows i've been to church camp a couple times but i remember i think the first time i went like they they split you up into teams and like obviously you have no phones or anything for like three or four days um we were the me and my sister were the only siblings they split up like every other sibling got put on the same team and i was like what the fuck man
Immediately, I was like, what the fuck, bro? While I'm fucking there. I was just looking at it like.
When we did shot put in high school, one time, our coach, he's like, oh, varsity over there, JV over there. My sister and I are walking. He goes, not you two. I'm splitting you up. And I said, why? And then he was like, because the giggle twins need to be separated. Period. And he called us the giggle twins.
And then me and Jason laughed for so long. He was like, this is what I'm talking about. Get over there.
For real. Anyways, at church camp, I was looking at it like, this is just fun time. Because it's really hard for me to buy in in a lot of instances and stuff like that. Anything with organizers, it's really hard for me. I try to suspend reality when I'm in there. And sometimes I felt like I felt it. But then most times I felt like I was holding my hands up and I was just copying everyone.
Because I felt left out. Because everyone's feeling the spirit and I couldn't. So I was like, aw. And then I remember my sister was really into it. But I remember most times I was like, I would look at her and I'd be like, you're not buying it. Oh, you are. Okay. Okay. My bad. My bad. Yeah. And then I remember we said the sinner's prayer together when you're like dedicating it.
And I remember we were saying it. Everyone was like so emotional. Like they asked me and my sister to come if we wanted to say it. And my sister was like, yes. And then I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. For real. And then I was sitting there.
I remember we were doing the prayer, and we were holding hands, and we were in a circle, and then I kept going to look at Daze, and I was like, oh, damn, she's really doing this shit. Okay, fuck, fuck, fuck. The whole time I was going, oh, fuck, okay, she's being for real. Oh, fuck, fuck, fuck. And then I kept thinking, I was like, oh, she's being for real, she's being for real.
And then things took a more serious turn, so clearly I've turned away.
Appreciate you.
We have similar backstories being too silly for church camp.
I don't know. Oh, maybe it'll come back to me. I was talking about it treated like summer camp. Yeah. Feel the spirit. Yeah.
Sinner's Prayer. It escaped me. I do have a final fun fact for you. Okay, I love it. And this is our funnest fact, I think. Does the name Barbara Tennessee mean anything to you?
Go ahead. Take her for a spin. Does that mean anything to you personally? Barbara Tennessee. He thinks he knows her personally.
It says, your improv team Fancy Fancy broke the Chicago record for most consecutive cage match wins. Yeah. 18 wins in a row.
And your prize was a framed photo of Barbara Tennessee.
What about a general place? Do you always try to make flight attendants your friends, I feel like?
Oh, a cage match being associated with your improv team called Fancy Fancy?
Yeah, we do.
Oh, yes. Yes, yes, yes.
I love them.
It feels like you're casting a spell on me.
With the quirky announcements on the intercom?
It's like March Madness for improv kids.
18 weeks is a long-ass time.
You're crazy.
You're the David Goggins of improv.
Someone who needs to be funny. So like you're just born to be funny. Had to be. In the realm of.
I agree. It's a different energy.
Especially improv. That's why I think I told you when I had Sabrina Breyer on, we laughed. She goes, me and Caleb talk about improv all the time. She goes, because we're like, oh, it's so disgusting and embarrassing. And she's like, and then at the same time, we're like, I'm really fucking proud of you. It changed my life.
When you do the sets against each other, do they give you the same center point to focus on, or is it just random things?
Yeah.
Well, you know what? It's funny. Speaking of Chicago, you just had a huge show there that I came and it got to be a small part of.
Which was so exciting for you. It was so exciting for me. That's why it's such a full circle thing for you.
Love.
We did.
It was fucking crazy.
I remember when you came in my dressing room, Caleb goes, yeah, everyone's being super gay today.
Let's.
oh my god you were so great i was so glad you could come and do it oh my god of course i'm so i'm honored to have been asked and that was my first time seeing the bean i had never seen the bean the bean i've never seen it before cloud gate shout out cloud and we went to i think it's garrett's the popcorn is it carrots yeah we went there for the first time yeah i was trying to get the full chicago experience yeah did you have a hot dog or a deep dish or something
I had a deep dish. I did not have a hot dog. Jason did, though. Yeah. She loves a hot dog. Where'd you get deep dish? I don't remember the name of it. Oh, fuck. It was really good, though. Yeah. It's delicious. It's more bread and sauce than I anticipated.
And I stayed at a hotel that was like, it was a really nice one. It looked almost like art deco-y. But it was like right across the street from Trump Tower. Yeah. So I just took a lot of pictures of me flipping off the building. Why? So that was fun. Why would you do that? To our commander in chief. That's our president. I just respect the office. That's yours.
that does remind me though of when dayson told me she was watching i think it was the new mr and mrs smith she was watching one of the episodes and like you know on prime like they'll like when they're streaming it you're like they'll pull up their imdb and they'll have your photo and your name yeah and you were on there like next to the main two yeah and they was like oh my god are you in this episode i just watched it you're like funny you ask um they cut my part
Hi, how are you? First of all.
Hey, shouts out.
thank you so much.
I watched, um, I'll tell you after, but I watched a video, a movie that's coming out because I'm doing the carpet for it. And recently, and I was what, there's a scene where they're sitting in, like they're on a date and they're sitting in like a sushi restaurant and they're like, um, it was filmed so beautifully.
So it's like, they're the only things in focus, but like everything else is kind of moving around. And there's like a hibachi, like there's like an omakase chef, like behind them a lot. You see him a lot.
And we were watching the movie. I was like, That's what they're fucking going to cast me as. The omakase chef.
Don't you worry.
My hat's really tall. Moving knives like this. That's what I'm looking down the barrel of. That's what I have coming. For the future of my acting career. I don't think so.
Yeah, you know what? You, me, and Brittany need to be in a new version of The Hangover. Come on. I've pitched that to you.
No, that's Trixie. We'll make that Trixie. Yeah, we'll make that Trixie. Trixie can be the one that's on the fucking roof.
You know what's funny is that movie would have been a lot shorter because we would have kept partying.
And been like, she'll find us eventually.
And it wasn't asking too much of me.
I fucking love you. Thank you so much for coming back. I love you, buddy. Thanks for having me. You're just going to keep coming. Yeah. You're haunting me.
Well, if we ever find ourselves in the Senate, I guess we'll see.
Yeah. Girls trip.
I have those, like the headband.
You know you ain't topping with me. Come on. Thank you so much for coming back. I fucking love you. Thank you all so much for watching. Everybody already knows because they, for some reason, think you're a co-host of this show, but where can everybody find you?
Thank you so much for tuning into this episode of The Comment Section Show. Thank you so much to my amazing guest, Caleb Herron. Don't forget, new episodes of The Comment Section come out every Wednesday. You can stream the audio on all streaming platforms with the video list for free and exclusively on our favorite platform, Spotify.
Please, for the love of God, stop fucking asking me, where can I watch this? On Spotify. As of right now. Okay? Thank you so much. Thank you to my amazing guest, Caleb, and I'll see you next week. Bye!
Right, right.
Right, right.
Slid those panties right on.
Nice and snug.
Smaller carry-on.
Table for one.
You guys met in the middle. Yeah. I love that. That's beautiful in the skies.
What cologne was it? We're being haunted by the speaking of being haunted. P.S. What are the top notes?
Yeah, that's the beauty of it.
I would say I know I agree with you because I've seen I've seen the jokes being accredited to the wrong people like well to the wrong people to you and just me and Brittany are the ones being taken from but at the same time sometimes when I see them they're like oh he's way funnier than the two of them no and I was like no he's just meaner yeah that's the only difference between them
You're listening to house music.
Oh girl. I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa. You're not Drew. What happened to hi, hello?
And also I don't greet you that way.
What's funny is we're actually meaner to each other on camera than we are in real life. Yeah. Unless you're telling Caleb about your love life and he doesn't like it. Yeah. Then it matches the energy.
No, thankfully. Yeah. I agree with you, though. That's over-familiarity that I really don't like, which is like, me and Jason joke about this when we had a girl. We had so many wonderful people on tour, but there were some people that choose the mean route because they're just like, oh, we're all kidding around. Right. But the shit is like, I don't know you at all, so it's just jarring.
But someone came up to us and she was like, what's up, you fucking bitches? Yeah. And we were like, oh, hey. And then she was like, what the fuck is up? I think trying to be funny, but also she was being really intense and rude. And then she had my book in her hand, but she took the jacket off of it. So I was like, why did you take the panties off my book like that?
The pussy's just out in the air like that. Immediately doesn't want to play anymore. I was like, so this is why you bitches can't play with me. You can't play with me. Not everyone can do this.
That's so true.
And that's why sometimes when we hang out, they're like, how come you guys aren't, like, you guys didn't post anything or whatever? I'm like, because we're real life friends. We are. We're not content friends. We don't live in a content house. We're fucking friends in real life. The last thing we're doing is looking at our phones when we're hanging out. And if you could, you'd be Jason Bourne.
That's true. The green bubbles, I'm sick of it.
I'll cast you aside so fast with that stupid phone.
Different sides of the room.
Did you feel like I was mean to you? Yes, because I have blue eyes.
Dude, Brittany at one point was like, who the fuck is the green bubble in this chat? And there's only four of us, and she knows it's not the two of us. She's like, who the fuck is it?
Thank God.
Yeah, brain rot activated. Brain rot activated. The worm's already in there. Just let it run free.
Yeah. Unfortunately, it's a huge part of your career now. Yeah. My entire fucking career.
Yeah. It's fucking terrible. Speaking of your sub stack post, I thought the little snippet you posted about running on a fat ticket. We need a fat ticket.
Yep.
Yeah, I agree. Yeah.
I forgot.
And it's a vehicle more than anything.
But actually better for you.
The process. Right.
I think social media affects a lot of young guys in a lot of different ways because some guys like to talk about others. But what I usually use social media for is sports, clips of highlights, and really sharing reels in my interest with my friends. But I'm not the type of person to gossip and be mean to somebody else on social media.
Typically for me, I would watch like, you know,
Dave, thank you so much, and thank you both. Thank you both for being a Christ-centered image of, you know, how our finances can look, you know, young or old, no matter where you're at. Dave, I did want to say go Vols as well as a recent graduate from the University of Tennessee.
I have a degree in agriculture. It took about 10 years. My father passed away when I was 19 years old, my only financial provider. I kind of got fed to the wolves early. I was playing college ball in North Carolina and had to give it all up. So Lord came through later in life to be able to provide the finances to get that done, even though I have a little bit of student loan debt.
How can we help today, brother? Absolutely. So currently now 30 years old, I've had two professional careers in my life, one as a professional hunting guide and one as a real estate agent. Currently still a real estate agent. The past three years, I opened a branch office of my brokerage in the next county.
I have now been offered keys to the kingdom to buy everything that I've built over here in this county. I now have my broker's license. I'm looking to transition to the active broker. We manage about 65 rentals, so we have a pretty good rental portfolio. It brings in about $6,500 a month. After we pay our bills for the office that we rent, my property manager and just basic utilities.
We bring in about a thousand dollars in profit a month, but the lights are on and it really helps with the sales portion of the real estate company as well. Would you purchase this business? Would you not? And how would you do it? I will give you a quick background on myself as far as financially, debt-wise. I have no credit card debt.
I still drive a 2006 Duramax that's been paid off since I bought it. I only have about $200,000 in total debt with my home, and then I have, again, about $25,000 in student loan debt from the University of Tennessee.
So for the past four years in a row, I have gone from $90,000 to $125,000 in that kind of fluctuation. Taxable income? Correct, yes, sir.
That's correct.
80-20. Okay.
I have five agents that work in my branch office that will be transitioning over if I purchase the company as well.
One is relatively new. The other three, I would say gross commission. They probably bring in an extra 30 or 40. I'm kind of the breadwinner here.
The rental portfolio. Makes $12,000.
You are correct. Okay. You are correct.
So he's offered several different terms. $75,000 is what he is valuing the business at. So it can be a seller finance route or it could be whatever route that I find that could be feasible. My goal to him was if I did any sort of financing that I would pray I could have it done in two years, three years at the absolute max.
There's a few items that I could probably go away with to increase our rental income with that property management portfolio as well to generate anywhere from $15,000 to $2,000 a month of income from there.
Okay, 100% of the profit.
That's right.
Yeah, of profit. Yuck.
I like it. I like it.
Understood.
Hey, guys. Thank you. Thank you for taking my call.
So just a quick question. Me and my wife, we just finished the financial coach master training. We use every dollar. We're very familiar with the show. Our issue isn't so much that we, I guess, don't manage our money properly. It's more of an issue of the income versus the outcome. And we've minimized the outcome as much as possible. We only have $17,000.
worth of student loan debt that's the only debt that we that we currently have uh we got rid of our credit cards um just really trying to get ahead and i don't know we feel like we just simply need to make more money but that's becoming very difficult um i recently tore my ecl we recently welcomed our first child um she came five weeks early she's only a month old
So just trying to get ahead like in this crazy market and just kind of looking for some advice about that.
So roughly 60,000, and I say roughly because I'm full-time at Publix. She's part-time at Publix, so her hours vary drastically week to week. But roughly 60,000 combined. Is she planning to go back? So, yes, if she has to. The goal is she's currently putting in for remote positions. But it took us six months to find the jobs at Florida. We went six months when we moved here without a job at all.
It took us that long to find anything.
So right now we're paying the minimum payment on the student loans, which we would like to be attacking that more. But with the monthly income versus the monthly outcome between our rent, car insurance, stuff like that, it's just, I mean.
So we didn't have any. We've been very lucky to not have any credit card debt or anything like that. We've always managed to pay that off.
I tore my ACL. Oh, ACL.
Yeah, we used to do car detailing and I also have a construction background. It's just been incredibly difficult to find connections in this area. Like I said, it took us six months just to get a job at Publix. Like the market in Orlando is ridiculous. And I'm hearing that from... What do you mean it's ridiculous?
Yeah, like we put in, and this is no joke, like we were putting in hundreds of applications a week.
Mainly sheetrock.
No, sir.
22.
Correct.
Right. I mean like, yeah, so it is.
100%.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, probably not.
Hi there. Thanks for taking my call.
So my wife and I are 26. We have two kids, two and under. My instinct is to have no life and pay off our house as fast as possible. And she wants to live reasonably. And so I was wondering how you balance the gazelle intensity as you step into four, five, six.
Sure. I guess she's Working full-time now as a paramedic, making about 90, and I'm salary and supply chain at about 60. Great.
We're pretty comfortable, but I've considered moving to a different job that might pay more, but it would not allow me to be at home as much.
Probably 80, maybe 85.
So right now I work hybrid. I'm home, working from home two to three days a week. But my work lets me pick my hours and I can be flexible around my wife's schedule. It would cause us to have to do child care, which we don't. and just make things more complicated.
We're projecting around six years. Bro, that's phenomenal. That's amazing. Do it.
We've never had debt. We've been married. We both cash flowed our two-year degrees from the fire department and me through a charter school in high school. We've been debt-free, and my work paid for us to go through FPU. What do you owe on your house? About $280,000.
Just flashes her. Hey, Cheryl! What? What?
If you want to talk to your friend. Hey, I'll brush your teeth and brush mine. Shut up.
That's a whole other story. No. I just want to go there and use devices to clean your teeth. Yeah, moving on.
If you really want to get your teeth cleaned, you have an electric toothbrush.
You took it there.
Ja, ihr könnt mich als Freund auf Facebook einladen.
Yeah, Christian Mingle. That's funny. Craigslist classifies. That's more accurate.
Ja, das war interessant. Ich habe ihr gemesselt. Sie hat mich gefolgt und ich habe sofort gesagt, was ist das? Fünf Minuten später. Ich bin nicht einer von vielen Leuten, die dieses Spiel spielen, dass man es sitzen lassen muss. Oder was auch immer. Ich mache das nicht. Es war so erfreulich.
3, 2, 1.
Für Reference.
Ich weiß, ich habe einen wirklich guten Taxi-Mann.
And I said, tell me more. Tell me more, mustache man. It was really short.
Ja.
Wenn wir ein Kind haben werden wir es brauchen. Ich werde es nicht erzählen, bis sie älter sind.
Es ist genetisch. Es ist wie die Katzen und der Hauch.
Es ist Natur gegen Natur. Ich habe es ihr erzählt. Ich habe es ihr erzählt.
Ich erinnere mich nicht, wie es von oben nach unten geht. Aber zu einem Zeitpunkt waren die Haare nicht Angst vor Haaren. Dann hat ein Haar einen getötet. Und von dann an, die Generationen, die noch nie zu einem Haar ausgeschlossen waren, sagen wir 18 Generationen, die das gemacht haben, haben einen Haarenfliegen gezeigt. Und sie hatten die gleiche Reaktion. Das ist wie Epigenetik.
Das war ein grosses Paraphrasieren. Ich bin sicher, es ist anders. Aber das ist die generelle Idee.
Du liebst Kanada. Nein, ich liebe Kanada.
Ich bin froh, in Kanada zu gehen. Sie hat davon sehr viel gesprochen. Habt ihr noch nie gewesen? Ich habe noch nie gewesen. Ich habe keinen Passport.
Die Fenster sind offen. Wenn du die Fenster öffnest und die Sonne da ist, ist es so viel besser. Auch aus Virginia. Die Sonne, der Himmel ist so viel größer. Du bist mehr auf Licht ausgewogen.
Die Leute sind glücklicher. Sie fühlen nicht die Bedrohung, ihre böse Wille auf ihre Repräsentanten zu stehlen.
Ähm, also... Ja, ich meine, er kam... Ich vergesse genau, was der Zeitpunkt war. Ich habe es noch nicht so lange nachgedacht.
Es war der Game-Launch-Tag. Das war einfach der schlechteste Tag jemals. Game Announcement-Tag, Demo-Launch-Tag.
Ja.
Ich hatte eine Liste von Fragen und ich dachte mir, okay. Was soll ich sagen? Nein. Natürlich nicht. Ich brauche mehr Zeit, Mr. Beast. Wir machen das, danke. Oh, er ist schon hier. Das hat auch mit den Kameras zu tun. Wir mussten alles aufsetzen. Er kam um 9 Uhr, glaube ich. Etwa um 8 oder 9 Uhr.
Und dann...
Oh nein.
Ja, genau. Ja, seine Pillars von den Dingen, wie nur ein kurzer Leser wäre, den ich von der Interview gemacht habe, wären seine Pillars von dem, wofür er sich interessiert und versteht und wirklich priorisiert. Und würde sogar beachten, dass da etwas falsch ist oder was auch immer. Das werden Dinge sein, die in seinem Kontrolle sind, 100 Prozent. Ja. Daten, YouTube, Thumbnail.
Das ist das, worum er sich interessiert. Absessiv. Absessiv. Alle seine Pillar, sogar seine Moral, potenziell. All das ist einfach nur in einem YouTube-hyper-fokussierten Ding. Was er wirklich gut macht. Er ist einfach nur ein Typ.
Er hat die Beleidigung für viele Sachen genommen. Es ist unter seiner Firma, also fair genug. Am Ende des Tages... Ich habe immer gesagt, dass er der Kerl war. Du solltest es nur erwarten. Wenn du naiv genug bist, dass du nicht massiv für alles kritisiert werden wirst, wenn du an diesem Niveau bist, dann verdienst du mehr Kritik. Du musst dich an PR gewöhnen.
Du bist derjenige, der alles verdient und alles verliert. Du musst maximal kritisiert werden. Du musst mit allem transparent sein.
Ja, ich meine, vieles hat auch vorher angefangen. Aber die Philanthropie, wie er in dem Video gesagt hat, er war überzeugt, wenn er weniger Philanthropie gemacht hätte, würde er weniger Hass bekommen. Das ist sehr ironisch.
Ja, das habe ich auch gesagt. Und hoffentlich gewinnt der kritische Gedanke am Ende. Aber es könnte sein. Der kritische Gedanke, die Anzahl der Menschen, die wütend sind, ist eine sehr kleine Anzahl von Menschen. Es ist immer eine vokale Minorität von Menschen, die Leute zerstören wollen.
Aber ich würde sagen, dass die Leute, die die Leute zerstören wollen, immer einen gewissen Niveau der Wahrheit haben. Und das ist so, wie du wächst, indem du den Niveau der Wahrheit erkennst, auch wenn es schwierig ist, zu sehen. Weil dein Instinkt ist, nicht zu sein.
Oh, gestresst.
Dein alter Mann-Bit ist so lustig. Das ist so lustig. Sie dachten nicht, dass es lustig war. Weil viele der Kritiker von MrBeast-Stuff... Das Video hat 96% Like-to-Dislike-Ratio. Es ist also wirklich gut. Und die Leute, die negativ kommentieren, sind wahrscheinlich am Like-to-Dislike-Ratio. Du klickst den Like-to-Dislike-Ratio, bevor du kommentierst. Generell.
Weil du dich dazu empfiehlst, etwas zu kommentieren. Und das Level, dass du dich dazu empfiehlst, ist ein paar Schritte dazwischen. So it was received overall well. But most of the criticism, most of it, genuinely most of it, I feel like was valid. So when people were criticizing me, I was like, well, there's nothing I can even say to this. Like, you're right. What am I supposed to say?
What was the criticism you think was valid? I'm sorry. Dass es unvorbereitet war. Okay. Ich würde sagen, dass das perfekt validiert ist. Unvorbereitet oder untervorbereitet. Du hast zwei Stunden, das ist seltsam. Ja, es macht Sinn, warum, aber das ist immer noch validiert, Chris.
Ja, ich denke, das ist wahr. Und ich denke, dass... Ich meine, das ist generell so, wie ich Dinge anfange. Ich wünsche mir, dass ich auch mehr Fragen hätte, um mehr wahrzunehmen. Ich habe einige Fragen verpasst, aber ich habe sie am nächsten Tag angerufen, weil ich einige verpasst habe.
Aber ja, ich meine, wenn ich es wieder tun könnte, würde es wahrscheinlich nicht... Wenn ich nicht den Kontext hätte, den ich jetzt habe, und ich mehr Zeit hätte, um mich zu vorbereiten, kann ich nicht versichern, dass es besser wäre, um ehrlich zu sein. Nur weil ich glaube nicht, dass ich es viel anders anfangen würde. Aber...
Ich habe jetzt viele Karten, die ich jetzt für Interviews spielen kann, die ich von der Kritik gelernt habe. Es gab keine Negativen. Es war großartig.
Ich war mehr aufgeregt als immer. Das ist seltsam, weil ich bis dieses Jahr die anstrengendste Person gewesen bin. Ich habe nicht viel gemacht, weil ich das gemacht habe. Ich habe mein Leben so gelebt, dass ich es nicht optimal sehen würde. Was hast du verändert? Ich weiß es nicht. Es ist schwer zu sagen. Sie hat mir geholfen. Sie hat mir geholfen, absolut. Sie hat mir geholfen.
Sie hat mir geholfen.
Ich weiß nicht, was er gemacht hat. Ja, er ist ein Geräusch. Pocket Ginger ist wirklich... Das hat etwas damit zu tun.
Ich sollte zumindest mehr lustig sein. Weil da waren so viele Dinge, wo er etwas sagen würde und ich so... Ich konnte ihn sehen!
Ich habe es wirklich nicht. Und Rechnerpapier für BPAs und Mikroplastik. Soll ich das hinkriegen oder nur hinkriegen? Ja, nur hinkriegen.
Es macht mich salivieren.
Ich garantiere dir, dass er es gemacht hat. Wir flogen in den zweiten, es war der dritte.
Aber es war cool.
Ich weiß.
Besonders nach dem Launchen deines Videospiels. Ja, das war viel wichtiger. Ich bin auch sehr gut am Priorisieren von einer Bedeutungsperspektive. Wenn ich Zeit spiele,
Und wie ich mich damit beschäftige und wie ich mich damit beschäftige, wie ich mich damit beschäftige, wie ich mich damit beschäftige, wie ich mich damit beschäftige, wie ich mich damit beschäftige, wie ich mich damit beschäftige, wie ich mich damit beschäftige, wie ich mich damit beschäftige, wie ich mich damit beschäftige, wie ich mich damit beschäftige, Ich bin immer noch gestresst.
Ich meine, ich bin immer noch gestresst, ich habe einfach keine Panik. Nein, ich wollte nur sagen, dass ich dir nicht geholfen habe, dass du gestresst bist. Oh, ja, ja, ja. Nicht ich.
Das ist, was ich ihr sage. Ich weiß nicht. Ich glaube, dass jemand etwas daraus holen kann. Ja, aber ich war wirklich überrascht, zurück zu dem, worüber wir geredet haben. Du bist gestresst. Ich bin so entspannt. Nein, es ist gut.
Ja, das Spiel zu vorbereiten. Oh ja, das Spiel ist einfach so bedeutend und so cool und so viel Spaß. Und dann sind YouTube-Videos YouTube-Videos.
Das muss schrecklich sein. Ich habe mich auch daran beteiligt, ein Teil davon zu sein. Ich habe gelernt, wieder zu coden. Ich wusste schon, wie man es programmieren kann, aber ich habe es noch nie gemacht. Ich bin in C-Sharp, mache Sachen in Unity, was so cool ist und so viel Spaß macht.
Und einige der Prototypen und Sachen, die wir in das Spiel geben, die wir in die Demo geben, sind Dinge, von denen ich kleine Prototypen gemacht habe, in meinem eigenen kleinen Weltraum in Unity. zu zeigen, dass es wirkliche Techniker gibt, die 30 Jahre Erfahrung haben, oder 20 Jahre Erfahrung haben, oder 10 Jahre Erfahrung haben, die das nehmen können und es verbessern.
Es ist nur ich. Ich bin der einzige Content-Creator. Und jeder andere ist nur ein Entwickler oder Künstler oder Designer oder Techniker.
Ich hätte ihn spielen sollen.
Es ist gut.
Ja, es ist ein Horror-Spiel. Okay, cool. Meine liebsten Spiele der letzten paar Jahre, die ich mit meinen Freunden am meisten gespielt habe, waren all die Phasmophobia oder Lethal Company oder Battle Rock Galactic oder nur vier Spieler. Du gehst rein, du kriegst Sachen, du nimmst sie raus. Wie in Helldivers. Genau.
Das gleiche, du bist in einer Gruppe mit Freunden und du machst Dinge, du arbeitest gegen etwas.
Ja, der Hauptunterschied ist, dass wir versuchen, einen interessanten Weltraum zu bauen. Das ist das coole an der Geschichte.
Ja, das wäre ein perfekter Touch. Ich glaube auch. Es tut weh, weil, ich meine, das wäre wirklich großartig, aber man, es ist wie die Jungs, die die Performance-Capture gemacht haben, die diese Charaktere performen, sie haben so einen fucking guten Job gemacht, dass es sich fast weh tut, sie nicht, wie Roger Clark, der Arthur Morgan gemacht hat, es würde weh tun, ihn nicht zu sehen.
Ich liebe Waffen. Es gibt Waffen überall. Eigentlich, als wir uns zuerst getroffen haben, habe ich sie gequält, bevor sie zum ersten Mal hierher kam. Ja. Also Präsentations-Gunnen. Ja genau. Ich habe vielleicht noch etwas kleinere. Ich habe noch etwas kleinere, mehr lustige. Ich habe einen kleinen Beretta Bobcat mit einem kleinen Suppressor drauf. Ich habe das rausgelassen. Das ist lustig.
Und er sollte Arthur Morgan sein. Ja, es ist natürlich ein anderer Geist. Und was du sagst, die Menge von Leuten, die das Spiel nicht lieben, als es erst herausgekommen ist. Weil anstelle von allem, was in 40 Sekunden passiert ist, hast du einen neuen Beat. Etwas, das dich weiter in das Spiel bringt. Und einen neuen Charakter, den alle... Ich wusste nicht, wie verrückt die Leute waren. Ja.
Das Spiel war wirklich hart, in dem Sinne von dem. In dem Sinne von nicht wirklich... zu der kommenden Aufmerksamkeit.
Ich habe mich noch nie so nah an Es gibt gute Filme, aber Red Dead Redemption 2 ist so gut, dass es es nicht möglich ist, es den Leuten zu erklären. Du kannst es nicht artikulieren.
Ja, das ist lustig.
Oh, Guns da.
Aber dann habe ich es für den ersten Moment herausgefunden. Und dann hat er mir seine Klammer gezeigt. Und dann habe ich ihm meine Klammer gezeigt. Mein Raum. Dein Lieblingsraum. Mein Lieblingsraum. Mein Seder-Raum.
Es ist voll von Waffen. Wie war das das erste Mal?
Es ist wie ein verdammt schrecklicher Junge.
Skeleton in that movie scared the shit out of me when I was a child.
Die kleinen Jungs, ja. Heute eröffnen wir einen Geschmack, der ist Limon, Pfeffer, Blumen, Pfeffer.
Und es heißt Yellow Snow.
Und es ist alles grün. Und der Bag ist ein Schneemann, der mit Piss verpackt ist. Ja.
Es schmeckt nicht wie Piss. Es schmeckt nicht wie Piss. Es schmeckt nicht wie Piss. Es schmeckt nicht wie Piss. Es schmeckt nicht wie Piss.
Es ist natürlich immer noch ein Herausforderung, aber die Team ist alle so, ja, es ist jetzt einfach. Wir haben es. Auch wenn es unvermeidbar ist. Ja. Sie sind einfach...
Ja, mit den Lil Guys können wir viel mehr produzieren.
Machst du das immer noch in der Strecke?
Ja, und wir werden auch bald unsere Fulfillierung aussorgen. Und das wird die Umstände für die Bestellungen höher, besser, weil wir aus einer kleinen Stadt in Zentral-Texas ausfüllen. Es ist so, dass man von der Anwendung her schneller geht. Aber es gibt eine Firma in Houston, die uns jede Woche fahren wird, um unsere neuen Farben zu bekommen. Das ist ein hartes Versprechen.
Aber sie werden das machen.
Erinnerst du dich an das argentinische Essen?
Was hab ich gesagt? Ich vergesse es.
Mentally.
Ja, das ist definitiv der Grund, warum ich all diese Sachen machen würde, weil es alles Dinge ist, die ich wirklich genieße. Aber um ehrlich zu sein, haben wir noch kein Videospiel. Ja. Okay, was kommt dann? Wann kommt es? Hoffentlich bis vor Mai. Okay, so. We'll see. That's pretty close. It's pretty good. It's not gonna long.
The demo is for the purpose of feedback. I hate this guy.
I love it. Especially popping the demo out and getting to see people's feedback and the things that they are thinking of are the things that we're questioning as to whether or not, like the negative criticism, are things that we've already got unter Kontrolle. Und dann die Dinge, die sie lieben, sind Dinge, von denen wir denken, ich wundere mich, ob das funktionieren wird. Also es ist cool.
Es ist wirklich cool, die Validation von beiden Seiten zu sehen. Und dann die Leute, die wissen, wie ich es spiele, ihr Feedback gegenüber den Leuten, die es nur auf Steam spielen und ihr Feedback sehen. Es ist wirklich interessant. Allgemein fühle ich mich No respite. Even releasing the demo. Making a video game is, I'm not even, but 10% of it. And it is so much work and preparation and planning.
Easily the most difficult thing I've ever been involved in. By a factor of 10.
So, day to day, we have directors conversations on a daily basis. On a busy week, let's say. Because some weeks are less busy. I don't think you keep doing that, by the way. He's in on it, dude. Because I'm a man, Dad. Fuck off. Just take a nibble.
Ich spreche mit allen, schaue, was alle arbeiten werden. Ich arbeite als Exekutivproduzent. Ich habe einen Produzenten, der mich informiert. Alles, was in unseren Sprints durch die Woche gemacht wird, ist das Ziel der Woche, das alle aufmerksam halten. Wir verwenden Jira als Management-Software, um aufmerksam zu bleiben, was passiert. Es gibt diese coolen Karten. Es ist wirklich interessant.
Und am Ende der Woche, alle Entscheidungen, alles, was im Spiel läuft, gehe ich durch, um sicherzustellen, dass es unsere Vision passt. Und dann, während der Woche, haben wir Meetings, um verschiedene Dinge zu formulieren, mehr Gedanken über bestimmte Dinge zu machen, mit der Technik zu sprechen. Was brauchen wir? Brauchen wir mehr Zeit? Wie fühlt sich das an? Welche Wurzeln schauen wir an?
Wenn du über ein Spiel denkst, gibt es Kunst, Design und Technik. Und der technische Teil davon ist wahrscheinlich der größte Teil. Aber weil du deine Systeme bauen musst, um überhaupt etwas zu designen. Und du musst deine Systeme bauen, bevor du überhaupt Kunst einstellen kannst. Es ist also wirklich einfach, blockiert zu werden.
Und wenn ein Team etwas macht, ist es möglich, dass ein anderes Team nichts machen kann, weil sie noch nicht fertig ist, was sie noch machen. Also, um diese Probleme zu lösen, die einfach immer Probleme sind, die man nicht lösen kann. Logistik. Logistik, ja. Es ist wirklich ein logistischer... Es ist ein logistischer Schmerz, ein Videospiel zu machen. Es ist wirklich so.
Ja, ich habe einen neuen Respekt vor... Games, because even if your game is good and your tech is good and your systems are good, is the engine good? Does the engine need to be patched? Because that's a huge thing as well. Are you stable?
Are all the 50 systems that are a part of you walking a quarter mile on the map and picking stuff up and just playing a normal, simple-ass game, are all those 50 systems all working together? Do they work together the same way each time? Ist das Spiel laggig, wenn du nur einen Weg arbeitest? Ist es performant? Es gibt eine unbegrenzte Menge an Problemen, die du immer lösen musst.
Das ist das größte Ding, wie ermutigend all das ist. Und dann, wie viele Herausforderungen es auch gibt, weil es so ist, dass du das tun kannst. Du kannst lernen, wenn es ein technisches System gibt, kann ich lernen, wie es funktioniert und dann potenziell Hilfe dazu geben. Einige Dinge sind einfach so kompliziert, dass es natürlich Jahre dauern würde, um sie zu lernen.
Aber mit der Art und Weise, wie es jetzt funktioniert, ist die meiste Sache nicht oberflächlich kompliziert. Also Leute wie das sind anstrengend. Und einfach generell, wie dein gewöhnlicher Designer. Es gibt so viel Arbeit, die in Videospiele geht. Es ist verrückt.
Ja, ich meine, der herkulöse Versuch, den Red Dead Redemption 2 gemacht hat, wie gut es war, von der User-Erfahrung her, ich kann es nicht, die Devs müssen, ich meine, du könntest nach dem Leben sterben. Das Legacy, das zu können, das ist verrückt. Wie viel Bedeutung und Unterhaltung es gibt.
Es ist wie eine Ausgabe.
Ja, sie wissen, dass... Du kannst fattig oder schmutzig sein oder nur auf der Anzahl. Sie wissen, dass die Leute es wahrscheinlich mehr spielen werden. Es wird deutlicher aussehen, wenn die Dinge einfacher sind. Die Leute werden weniger frustriert und weniger traurig.
Wir haben eine Idee. Was ich mit ihr machen will, und ihr Taxi-Team ist kein großer Fan davon, ist, und ich habe das mit ein paar lokalen Möbeln besucht, Wir bringen sie zurück nach Kanada. Und wir bringen sie zurück, um alle Aspekte auszuliefern. Sie hat einfach ein Haus verkauft. Alle Aspekte auszuliefern, alle Liquid-Money nehmen, Gold kaufen. Und dann... es anziehen, es tragen.
Es wäre schrecklich, wenn es nicht über Millionen von Millionen von Dollar geht, um die Aufmerksamkeit der Spieler zu recherchieren und wie es durch das Spiel folgt. Wenn du in eine Bordemzone gehst und sie aus der Bordemzone ziehst und dann sie challengest und sie wieder traurig machen. Das ist so, wie Spiele funktionieren.
Um Dinge zu machen, über die du sprichst und trotzdem das Spiel gewonnen hast... Ich würde gerne mit diesen Leuten sprechen. Und darüber lernen. Rockstar verpasst nichts.
Ja, das ist ein bisschen invasiv, aber in der gleichen Konversation wie diese Leute ist es einfach nicht so. Hideo Kojima ist wie ein Gott, essentiell ein Geist in der Gaming-Welt.
Nein, nein, nein. Der einzige andere Typ ist ein Typ, der nicht bekannt ist, dass er groß ist. Er ist bekannt, dass er cool ist. Caleb's Lieblingsperson in der Welt. Todd Howard. Oh, na gut. Wir müssen seinen Namen in den Hat schieben. Er ist bekannt, ziemlich gut, aber... Er hat einen Cardboard-Cutout von Todd Howard. Ich habe einen Cardboard-Cutout von Todd Howard. Das schmerzt mich jeden Tag.
Ja. Ja, Todd Howard.
Yeah, he's pretty cool. He's pretty cool. Every time anyone goes into my garage, they're like, oh!
Wir sprechen viel. Er ist ein bisschen ein Gubber. Es ist mehr ein Lachen. Es ist ein Gest. Ich liebe ihn. Ich liebe alle Elder Scrolls Spiele. Aber sie sind gut, weil sie ein bisschen schmutzig sind. Sie sind gut, weil man sie einfach zerstört und es ist Chaos. Sie sind nicht gut, weil es eine wahnsinnig hyper-polisierte Geschichte ist, die so wunderschön ist.
Sie sind gut, weil es eine Sandbox ist. Und du kannst einfach die Person sein, die du sein willst. Die Bugs sind die Zukunft. Genau. Ja, ja, ja.
Ja. Horse Armor. Oh, no shit.
Ich bringe, was ich von YouTube gelernt habe, direkt in die Videospiel-Industrie. In Todd, die wir vertrauen. Ich werde die Leute Super-Chats im Spiel machen. Sie werden mir Super-Chats im Spiel geben. Ja, aber es war extrem anstrengend. Ich habe nichts als Respekt vor Menschen in der Welt. Und, weißt du... Hoffentlich können wir etwas Spaßes machen.
Wir arbeiten sehr hart.
Trophäe.
Es heißt Billy Goat Bowhunt.
Schau dir das mal an. Oh, sorry. Das ist nur ein wirklich lustiges Video. Das war ein intrusiver Gedanken. Schau dir das mal an.
Ich bin kein großer Präzisioner, um ehrlich zu sein. Ich mache es einfach so. Was auch immer ich in einen Tag befinden kann, mache ich. Und dann versuche ich, das nächste Mal nicht zu denken. Weil wenn ich das tue, werde ich einfach super gestresst. Ebenso. Und... Ja, es war einfach viel. Es war so kurzfristig. Es war auch, alles war so kurzfristig. Und am selben Tag.
Oh, das ist wahr.
Das ist zu kritisch. Ich würde das nie machen.
Like in general or like... Just, you know, Freudian, are you the subject? Only if I'm crying.
Selbst wenn ich mich vorbereiten wollte, gab es nicht viel. Das Spiel war viel vorbereitet. Ich habe das seit einem Jahr gearbeitet. Und dann, das Candy-Stuff nimmt natürlich viel Zeit. Aber das Interview mit Beast war am letzten Moment. Stunden. Hatte er dich eingereicht oder hast du ihn eingereicht? Ja, er hat mich zuerst eingereicht.
Ja.
Was? Ich habe Billy Goat Bowhunt gesagt.
Nein.
Ja, also am Morgen, als er mir gesagt hat, dass er am Abend kommen könnte, und dann mich angerufen hat, als er ein Flugzeug anbaut, so ein paar Stunden später. Also wusste ich nicht, ob er am Tag kommen würde. Das ist Macht. Und dann wartet man, bis du das hörst. Wir leben in Zentral-Texas. Der naheste Flughafen ist zwei Stunden weg. Er landet und ich bin so, wir haben zwei Stunden.
Er zeigt sich in 15 Minuten auf.
1917?
Nein, es ist Clive. Clive Bundy. Clive Bundy. Clive Bundy. Didn't he get a stand-off with the federal government?
Sorry, I just... Ja. Geh weiter damit.
Verstehe, dass du eine Komma nimmst.
Ja, ich... Verbrechen? Eigentlich. Eigentlich. Legale Verbrechen. Eigentlich. Unfair. Ich fühle mich immer noch entdeckt. Also, ich habe ein wirklich tolles Haus. Und ich sollte kein wirklich tolles Haus haben. Und die Art und Weise, wie ich ein wirklich tolles Haus bekommen habe, war, dass ich ein normales Haus kaufen würde, gut unter meinen Bedingungen.
Es ist wichtig zu sagen, dass du die Medien, die du willst, machen solltest.
Und ich habe einen Offer auf dieses verrückte Haus eingeführt, weil ich wusste, dass der Kerl eine Begegnung durchführen wird, wenn man will. Und ich dachte mir, das könnte vielleicht interessant sein. Und ich hatte keine Ahnung, wer der Kerl war, was auch immer. Und ich schaue nach anderen Häusern, ich gehe und sehe das Haus, es ist verrückt.
Das ist ein schöner sonniger Tag. Du bist auf einem Picknick und die Kinder sind so... Und es ist so, ist es nicht ein schöner Tag?
Ich bin so, okay, ich werde einen Offer einstellen, aber mit dem Kaviar. Ich habe meinem Realtor gesagt, dass, du weißt, Ich meine nicht, dass das eine Verschuldung ist. Aber das ist, was ich für diesen Ort bezahlen kann. Ich weiß, dass es viel wert ist. Ich weiß, dass es ein Steal ist. Und ich weiß nicht, ob es ein Nein ist. Ich verstehe es völlig.
Oh nein.
Jimmy... The Grinch?
He's pretending to be Jimmy Stewart.
Oder ob es eine Wiederverhandlung gibt oder was auch immer. Das ist, was ich bezahlen kann. Ja, genau. Ja. Und es ist nicht aus Verschuldung. Nur um klar zu sein. Und wir haben die Offer erhoben. Und der Grund war, dass seine Frau weniger Geld in der Verhandlung bekommen hat.
Ich glaube, es war in den frühen 2000er Jahren.
Okay, ja. Es könnte etwas früher gewesen sein.
Der einzige Tod, der als Resultat eines Mönchens war, war ein... Ich denke, das ist korrekt. War sie krank?
Hatte sie einen Schokoladenkuchen? Sie ist gestorben. Sie fiel auf die Steine, richtig? Sie fiel auf die Steine? Ja. Ja. Die einzige Todesgeschichte, die der Monkey Man bezeichnet hat, war eine Frau, die gestorben war, die auf die Steine fiel. Und er konnte nicht aufhören zu lachen. Es ist einfach lustig, weil es... Nein, nein, nein.
Es ist lustig, weil es ein massiver Hysterie-Event ist, der diese Stadt aufgenommen hat und diese Leute sind so... Weil es eine Stadt entdeckt hat, ich weiß nicht, wie viele Leute... New Delhi! Das ist eine der größten Städte der Welt. Ja, es war massiver Hysterie. Und der einzige Tod, den der Monkey Man verursacht hat, war jemand, der fliegend und fallend war.
Ja.
Genau, ja. Sie setzen es auch sehr schlecht auf. Ich bin jetzt ziemlich gut. Ich und Jackson. Ich weiß es. Aber sie setzen es auf... Ich weiß nicht, was du sprichst. Sie setzen es auf zu verlieren. Ich weiß nicht, was du sprichst.
Es ist nicht nur die Frauen, danke Gott.
Auch die Kinder. Ich kann mich nicht vergessen, die Kinder.
Ich würde sagen, wenn du über den Baupreis sprichst, vielleicht 18%. Oh mein Gott. Aber wenn du über den realistischen Marktwert in der Region sprichst, alles in Ordnung, 47%. Oh, okay. Ja. Das Haus ist riesig. Es ist verrückt.
Und wenn es wirklich, wirklich gut ist, wird er sagen...
Absolut. Er ist sehr gut.
Und er ist auch ein Genius. Ja. Er ist auch ein Genius und so cool. Und ich habe ihn mit ihm in Kontakt gehalten. Ich hatte Angst, dass es als ein riesiges Vergnügen gesehen werden würde. Aber in der Realität war es einfach so, dass ich mich nicht interessiere. Es ist nur ein Haus. Sag einfach nein, ich werde in Ordnung sein.
Ja, er ist wirklich cool. Er ist ein sehr guter Junge. Ich bin noch in Kontakt mit ihm. Das ist großartig. Interessant. Ich würde sagen, du bist es.
Ich will sehen, ob Ghosts wahr sind. Ich will sie sehen. Ich glaube nicht, dass ich sie glaube. Er ist ein Ghost-Poker. Ich würde, wenn sie sie gezeigt hätten, wenn es irgendeine Art von Beweise gab, glaube ich. Was ist... Okay. Was ist mit Isaiah?
Ich liebe das, weil es... Ja, okay.
Weil es ist wie ein großes Haus. Aber es ist immer noch... So reasonable. I mean, it doesn't make sense to sell it or get rid of it.
Ja, ich würde es gerne. Ich glaube nicht an sie. Ich habe keine Glauben, dass Geister wahr sind. Es ist nicht so, dass ich will, um meine Erfahrung und Geschichte und Bücher und Wissenschaft und solche Sachen zu enttäuschen. Es gibt Dinge, bei denen ich mich enttäuschen möchte, um in diese Dinge zu glauben oder diese Dinge zu glauben, aber keine Geister.
Wenn ich eine gesehen hätte, würde ich daran glauben. Aber es macht mein Leben nicht besser, daran zu glauben, oder schlimmer. Kann ich einen Nukleargrad-Nein-Answer auf Isaiahs Seite nennen? Klar. Haben alle etwas gehört? Ja.
But what about second house? Yeah. Second house.
Ja, das war eine andere Sache. Ich habe es nur gefordert, weil ich damals Leute mit mir gelebt habe. Es macht nur Sinn, wenn du fünf Leute hast, die in einem Spot leben wollen. Weil es wie ein Komponenten ist. Es ist wie ein gigantischer Komponenten. Es ist auch wie ein Arsch.
Hast du ihm über den Mural erzählt? Oh ja, da ist ein... Eigentlich, ich denke, ich sollte es euch vielleicht zeigen. Ja, wahrscheinlich. Mal sehen, ob ich es wirklich schnell finden kann.
Yeah.
The guns might be offensive. Also, stare at my dick ball. Take mine from the penis mural. For context of this merch, for context of this picture, I thought it'd be funny to post a picture of me with some kind of material thing and flex and just be like, I'm so blessed. You know, like that type of photo.
It has to warm up.
Just look up OompaVille. You can find me anywhere pretty much. But Black Pine is my game. That's coming out hopefully soon. And Sourdough GGs. Yeah, Candies. Wishlist it? Yeah, they can wishlist it if they want. Force them, they will listen. Just play it.
I'm wearing her merch. sitting, feeling and looking blessed. Those are dripping deaths. That's a Baroque. Is it weird to say that that's tasteful? It is tasteful. I'm an artist, I paint, so I actually was like, this is really well done. Yeah, it's very well done. I appreciate it. As far as dick walls go.
