From the first time I saw you. Really?
Logan Paul 0:11
I'm getting goosebumps.
Steph McMahon 0:12
I thought it immediately. I didn't see it at all.
Logan Paul 0:18
It wasn't until after our first WrestleMania, I came backstage, and your dad was like, your future is here.

I would totally switch if you let me.
Steph McMahon 1:27
Yeah, do you want to switch?
Logan Paul 1:30
Yeah.
Steph McMahon 1:30
This could be kind of fun. Can we tell because it's your side?

All right. Yeah.

Logan Paul 1:44
Okay, so I'm sandwich now.

Logan Paul 2:01
Should I feel bad for taking the host seat? Why? This is actually good because this is where I sit for my pod.

Logan Paul 2:18
Yeah, I feel good about it.
Steph McMahon 2:19
So what is it about the side?
Logan Paul 2:21
I'm asymmetrical. My face is asymmetrical. But everyone's face is asymmetrical. I think it's because my hair swoops this way.
Steph McMahon 2:27
Okay.
Logan Paul 2:27
And I think my jawline's sharper on this side. Not think, it is. Every time I do a podcast opposite, I'm just like, eh, I should have done it differently.

Logan Paul 2:40
Nah.

Uh-uh, uh-uh.
Steph McMahon 2:42
When did you discover that you had a side?
Logan Paul 2:47
Probably like early 20s.
Steph McMahon 2:49
Really? But now you started vlogging when you were 10, right? I wouldn't call it vlogging. Okay, educate me.
Logan Paul 2:58
What would it be called? Wait, so this is about, we've begun.
Steph McMahon 3:01
Yeah, right? We're going.

Which I have a feeling is your favorite topic.

Logan Paul 3:16
I am pretty awesome.
Steph McMahon 3:17
You are. I mean.
Logan Paul 3:18
Thanks, Steph.
Steph McMahon 3:19
And a big success.
Logan Paul 3:21
I'd say even bigger than big.
Steph McMahon 3:23
You are. You're a phenomenal success story. But I also think you haven't peaked yet. So I don't want to like, because then where do you go from there?
Logan Paul 3:31
Yeah. Yeah.

How does Logan explain the value of collectibles like Pokémon cards?

Logan Paul 3:32
No, I don't think so either. It's crazy because, you know, they said I peaked in high school and then I just. They were so wrong. They were so wrong.
Steph McMahon 3:40
They were so wrong. But so what did you start doing at 10 that was akin to vlogging?
Logan Paul 3:46
I think it was actually nine. I was nine years old. I had this weird obsession with being able to capture what I was seeing with my eyes on a screen. Started with digital cameras. I was obsessed with taking pictures of flowers as a nine-year-old boy. Flowers. My mom was going to paint my room one day. She said, Logan, what do you want to paint your room? Anything special? I was like, Mom, I kind of want to put flowers on the wall.
Unknown 4:19
Really?
Logan Paul 4:19
Yeah, and my dad sat me down. He's like... Son? Son, you know, boys don't normally do that kind of thing, and... I was like, yeah, nah. I was kidding, I was kidding. Put a football in there, Dad. Dude, let's put basketballs on the wall. I was like, nah, nah. But I really like taking pictures of flowers. I love the aesthetic of seeing the flowers on my digital camera. And then it graduated to video camera. When I got enough money for my birthday parties, I saved up for a video camera. And I was obsessed with flowers. Being a goofball on camera and then going and watching it back. I don't know why. I don't know why. I just thought it was incredible. You could save a moment visually so we can watch it forever.
Logan Paul 5:04
Right. And then this new site called YouTube had just come out. I'm like 10 years old.
