Hey, before this episode starts, I just
wanted to touch base on a couple of
things. First thing we'll touch base on
is the Buffalo School District situation
and apparently even more districts than
that and our boy Angry Cop shining light
on the entire situation. Just a big
shout out to him again for opening up,
trusting us, trusting y'all, feeling
comfortable enough to deliver that
message. Rich, we love you, buddy, and
we'll always have you back as you can
tell by this amazing community and also
keep rallying behind not only Rich, but
those families and those children in
those districts are affected by this
entire situation. We all have your back
collectively. I already know I speak for
y'all and I know I speak for the guys.
this community will always be here for
y'all. Second, because of the love,
support, shares, likes, views on that
video and donations, we are able to
donate $10,000 by the end of the week to
the Buffalo, New York City Family
Justice Center. So, that is all you
amazing humans. Thank you. We are
honored to be able to write that check
and we all know it is possible because
all y'all out there.
Third, journalists are people that were
uh defending that. You learning a
lesson. I hope. Are you taking notes and
be like, "Man, kids come first. Kids, we
got to protect those things." H
otherwise, uh yeah, you're going to
learn about weaponized autism. And that
is the final part of this is it is the
end of the autism month. We have a
couple more days to break that
$250,000 goal. We are We're getting
close. Thanks to all you amazing people.
So, go pick up a weaponized autism
shirt. Go pick up some tism shoes. I'm
missing the black and blue ones cuz
Ryden decided he really wanted those.
Look how dope he looks. He's wearing the
boys hat, too. God, I need to teach that
boy how to stand up straight. I am so
proud of this amazing community and how
you all have rallied this entire month.
Be very proud of the community you are
part of. You have helped build and what
you have done. If you want, go pick up
some tism gear. We appreciate it. Let's
crush that goal. You've already done so
much this month and I feel selfish
asking you to do more. I just know y'all
care as much as we do about making a
positive impact in this world and
helping others that might need a little
more help or
assistance. Thank you all for
everything. Truly, truly mean that.
M. Ah,
hi everyone. Welcome to the unsubscribed
podcast. I'm joined here today by my
co-host, Mr. Eli Double Tap, our very
frequent guest, Ethan, Mr. Habitual Line
Crosser, and I believe for his second
appearance, Chris Cappy of now Cappy
Army, formerly Task and Purpose,
but maybe Call Me Cappy is on the table.
Um, we're going to say comment below. It
might be Call Me Maybe.
No, no. Yeah, copy the army. We need to
start a new channel called Task and
Porpus, and it's just about turtles. The
whole channel is about [ __ ] turtles.
It'd be hilarious. Every time anybody
types in task and purpose, why is it
after a porpus? But there's nothing but
turtles. I'm mad in that statement. It's
just breakdowns of Blastoids from
Pokemon. Like,
it's like what the Welcome back, buddy.
It's great to be here. Thanks for having
me, man. I appreciate it. We're excited.
And you got a whole new uh you you're
taking that solo journey you're about to
doing the leap of faith jumping off
going solo not scary at all I guess most
people probably don't realize but like
so what is the I guess what was the
dynamic at the Task and Purpose channel
cuz for the longest time I thought you
were like a oneman show or two guy show
I had no idea of so for the longest time
I was like a oneman band for the first
two years I wrote edited produced shot
uploaded all the content content and
then after I proved that like okay
there's something here we're getting
some views then they started to invest I
got a full-time editor task and purpose
gave me like a ton of opportunity and
always going to appreciate that yeah
very grateful for that but like you were
you didn't like start out on your own
out of the gate like you had like
financial backing at the beginning or so
a lot of people have that same question
they're like tons of people when I said
I was leaving they're all in the
comments like I thought you owned task
and purpose Right. And I I like not at
all. Never owned Task and Purpose,
didn't sell it. Like that was not what
happened. Like you said, like I don't
know if I honestly would have been huge
on YouTube if they basically fronted
that period of time, you know, like when
you're first you're putting out videos
and they're getting like 300 views where
where it's where where it's a full-time
job, but you're not making full-time job
money. Yeah. So, they were paying me a
salary while I was getting like 300
views, 1,000 views. And then after the
first six months, a year, it started to
become profitable, started to blow up.
And then I got locked into a contract
with them for like many years, um,
producing content, making the show for
them. But yeah, I had that financial
backing in the beginning and it it
really was it was huge. They let me like
they let me do whatever I wanted, which
is crazy for a company to let you just
say whatever you want, put up whatever
you want on the YouTube because when I
got there, their YouTube channel had 800
subscribers. No one was putting anything
on there. So, I was like, "Hey, can I
upload stuff on here?" And no one said
no. So, I took that as a yes. Which
that's not like that's not life advice.
That's not how consent works.
No, it's not. All right.
caught that joke. I'm going to take that
one back. It's not getting out there.
But like, okay, so once it started
making money and really taking off, like
the whole thing happened so fast for me.
Um, yeah. I don't I don't know. You you
had like task and purpose before I think
they focused more on meta, YouTube a
little, but it was like articles, news
articles, and then military. When I got
there, it was so me and Patrick Baker,
really close friend of mine, still
friends, great dude from like Ranger
days, we would just put up skits on
Facebook cuz there was no YouTube. So we
would just put up like funny videos on
Facebook and stuff and those would get
some attention and it was mainly Tasking
Purpose was a website and an Instagram
and they would do all these articles.
They they also they have somebody at the
Pentagon, Jeff Schog, amazing
correspondent at the Pentagon asking
questions to the you know the top people
at the Pentagon and uh their website put
out like really important articles and
the YouTube side has always been very
separate from the website side though.
Yeah. Had its own like voice and perspective.
perspective.
So that dynamic also gets to a point
where like you it makes sense to split
at a certain point. And yeah, I mean you
really dialed it into you were doing up
to two a week, correct? For a long
period of time. For the last three
years, we were doing basically like two
mini documentaries. Yeah. And yours was
I wasn't even here for his podcast. You
got him to quit his job. Way to go. I
learned from the best. He he showed up
one time. I want to I'm sick of being
professional. roll around the mud with
the rest of these degenerates. I got to
hang out with three retards. That was amazing.
I quit.
But it was you two a week is ridiculous.
And the level of work I mean Nick is
once a big one like once every other
week. I do two fat electricians a month
and two fat files a month. So it's once
a week, but the fat files are, you know,
they're like 10 to 20 minute videos,
whereas the fat electrician ones are
like 45 to hour plus. But the amount of
research that goes into it and then the
amount of detail you go into the amount
of information that you are able to
absorb and maintain has all I remember I
like texted you once. I was like, how do
you do it? And you're like just good at
it, man. Be better.
Get good.
Build different.
No, but it it's really impressive what
you do. Like
uh my situation is a little bit
different. We like in order to pump out
that amount of content, I work with a
team very closely that I could not do
what I do at that pace without these
guys. And they're actually a lot of them
are coming with me. When they found out
I was leaving, they were like, "Hey, can
we come with you?" So Mike Mike Elites,
he's my head of creative head creative
producer and uh a couple of my
researchers are also with me on Cappy
Army. So like this team is just really
amazing people that I I could not do it
without. When does that actually go
live? When you rolling out the first
Saturday. No [ __ ] Oh, that's like and
it'll be the the video on Saturday is
going to be a full explanation cuz I I
feel like the audience has they've given
me so much over the last 6 years and
it's been the my relationship with that
community has driven and built that show
and I'm appreciative of that and I feel
like I kind of owe them like an
explanation of hey this is what happened
like I love cat task and purpose keep
watching them here's a full rundown of
sort of like how we grew the channel and
where we're going in the future cuz
there's things like there's things I
want to do and invest in and that I
really couldn't do under task and
purpose and there's ways I wanted to
like incentivize my team and make sure
that they get paid what they expect to
get paid and you know when you're
working for a company you're not in
control of the goals you're not in
control of the compensation so I like
yeah I needed to take on the risk in
order to do that but I think you're
doing it the right way and it is a lot
of those companies it is a weird mindset
and I think they are learning. You had
like donut media and a couple others but
it is hey we'll build this in an
individual and then that brand is now
the company usually doesn't realize how
important that is. It'd be like fat
electrician if that was owned by like an
electrician company and then you're like
I'm out Nick out they'd be like [ __ ]
dude you could go anywhere else that
channel like Donut Media is funny you
bring them up so one of the things I'm
very grateful for is that they linked me
up like I got to be mentored by the CEO
of Donut Media really smart dude very
appreciative of that he taught me how to
like okay how are we going to take this
once a week thing and make it a twice a
week thing and you double that ad
inventory and think about it more of as
like a business because when I was doing
a oneb band thing. I just only thought
of it as like cool I got a green screen
behind me and like I'm just going to you
know I don't want to worry about
business and money side of things but
you can't you know I got I had to grow
up a little bit and then the stress
comes. Yeah. [ __ ] Why did I do so many
businesses? That was stupid.
Well, at least what's your first video
rolling out for uh Saturdays other than
explanation. Uh that's the why I left
Task Ask and Purpose video on Saturday.
And then after that, we're going to be
hitting people in the teeth, straight in
the teeth with
geopolitics, weapons rundowns, uh and
just good oldfashioned war.
I don't I don't envy your comment
section. No. Covering current event
geopolitics. Gaza, bro. It's It's every
Jew. Everybody's got Everybody's got
very strong opinions on places they
can't spell. Yeah,
I I can barely pronounce them.
You know I'm right. It is. So, I can't
spell the I can't spell that word, but I
have very strong opinions about it. And
[ __ ] you if you disagree with them. And
I know they would respect my opinions if
I went there. It's like
A lot of people have never just never
went to a third third world country or
experienced war. If you don't, then you
have this weird mindset that everyone is
like a typical American, kind, friendly,
or they respect your life or any of
that. That that can go out the
window. [ __ ] lickety split.
Lickickety. Geopolitics sucks, man. Like
I I even try like I had to throttle back
on some of the things that I say cuz
people have such strong feelings in the
world and geopolitics is I mean my mine
is just comedy and satire and stuff like
that but you like break it down cold
hard facts like this is exactly what's
going on. I do not envy you man. I do
not. That's why I like history. I get
there like this guy killed a lot of
Nazis. Everybody's like, "Yeah,
today off that electrician." Hitler a hero.
We can leave your comment section, too, Nick.
Nick.
We just go down that rabbit, man. Nick
really did the Jews deserve it.
Jesus, I'm not that bad.
I was like, that that should have been
your April Fool's video. You just do a
pro like pro
communismund all the good ideas I Stalin
had 4 second video
that's yeah clackbang out [ __ ] the
end like
open an empty book and then shut the
video off I actually now that everyone's
here you guys how did you meet each
other I think we ran into each other at
Shot Show one year and then we just
messaged back and forth yeah it got hot
and heavy I was [ __ ] [ __ ] wrecked. I
I remember drunk Nick's my favorite. I
was very drunk. Eli,
how you doing, buddy? You're a good guy.
I'm like Nick's hugging. He's happy,
right? Yeah. He's the happiest kind of
stroke. I'm telling you, when you get
when you get Nick a little bit tipsy,
just take him to IHOP at 3:00 a.m.
You're fine. It's true. Yeah. He's a
simple man. I haven't [ __ ] at IHOP this
trip yet. We do that tonight. We can
make that. We going to IHOP so you can
[ __ ] there tonight. Mhm. Okay. So, we
got uh different history segments. Your
I want to know each one of your
different like favorite wars or moments
in history cuz they're going to be
different. I'm assuming cuz yours is
World War II, Nick. I mean, probably.
That's where you like [ __ ] hammer it.
I want to say World War II because
there's a lot of really interesting
things that happened in World War II.
However, the more I learn about
aircraft, Desert Storm is just a
symphony of destruction. It's beautiful
what Schwarzgo did. It's gorgeous.
You You talking anytime in history like
current events? You can do current
events if you like it. Now war. Yeah. I
mean, I I like Assyria. I do. I you know
what I like about Syria is you talk
about how like okay geopolitics can be
like it's gonna be a third rail like
it's a hot topic but Syria everyone
everyone can get behind the fact that
like [ __ ] ISIS that's fair actually. Yeah.
Yeah.
So true. What about you Eli? I don't
know World War II. I like Well, I
actually like the old If it's American
history, World War
II just crazy. Just that mindset,
actually putting yourself in that
position where you're riding in a boat
at depending on what age, 13 to 20, and
then you're just heading towards a
beach, bullets are whipping by, hitting,
and then you're just dismounting running
into it. Or you're in Irima doing the
exact same thing or jumping out of
[ __ ] airplane that's getting lit up.
Like all that is wild. And then Japanese
history like uh the Ido era
was uh uh Tashiro not uh Nobonaga like
his rise to power and then his how he
could almost unified Japan and then
Yosha I forget his Yoshi he then unified
it and it was just a farmer that managed
to get that much power into that
prestige and you unify an entire country
that was a very big war country that
never went away until two sons came
Yeah, I was like two reset buttons. Hit
some pretty reset that warrior mindset
real fast. We go from warrior mindset to
I love how isolated Japan was from the
rest of the world like for a long like
it's just it's just [ __ ] cra it's
just like the era that's never going to
happen again. You know what I mean? just
the era of discovery of like we've
unlocked the whole map at this point.
Like we we know it all. We've seen it
all. But like just the idea of like just
some dude on a [ __ ] pilgrim on a
wooden boat rolls up like what are you
guys doing? Oh, you're wearing pottery
and chopping each other's heads off. All
wild. What the [ __ ] What is going on?
Why did he do that? No, he dishonored
his lord. Why did he quit? fire him
better. Like I have a I just have
like I don't even know how to explain. I
have a fascination with like animals and
discovery of animals where it's like
imagine being an explorer and like
rolling up on Australia and there's
giant dog bunny kangaroos hopping
around. You're
like, do I even tell anybody about this
or they going to burn me for being a
witch? Like they're going to put me in
an insane asylum. Like you know the
[ __ ] like the platypus. The platypus
there was like people that had
documented the platypus and people
thought that they were just full of [ __ ]
and lying like it was Bigfoot for like
40 years. It was like a mythical
creature like a [ __ ] uh what's the
the rabbit with the deer antlers
jackaloupe. They they thought it was
like a jackaloupe type thing for like 40
years and then they caught one alive and
they're holy [ __ ] It has a needle and
it has poisonous claws. Venomous
venomous declaws. It lays eggs, but it's
a mammal. Yep. It has a duck bill. Yep.
So, like that is it. It It has a duck
bill and it's older than a duck. So,
technically a duck has a platypus bill.
See, I didn't know about that. Yeah.
Like the whatever the is it big man
upstairs when like putting animals
everywhere just had some leftover parts and
and
he's love those tweets. It's so good.
the tweet where it's like God inventing
animals and talking to the angel like,
"All right, I want a bug. Give it like
eight legs, like 17 eyes." Angel like,
"God, you're getting crazy with this
one. Give it an ass
rope." It's like that when uh the I want
uh I want 100 legs. It's like two
insects. They don't have any distinct
form. And they're like, "I want to be
long and skinny." So, I was like,
"Boop." And he's like, "I want lots of
legs." So, and there were two millipedes
like yay. And he's like, "What's your
third wish?" And one's like, "More
legs." And other one's like,
"Teath." Centipedes. You see how big,
dude? Terrify me. They're poisonous.
They will murder [ __ ] Like centipedes
and the giant ones are like the size of
your arm. Yeah. [ __ ] off. Did you know a
couple years ago they discovered a new
spider in Australia? I'm not making this
up, right? Like I watched this guy on
Instagram and he's like breaks down
different animals and [ __ ] all over the
world. Like mostly it's Australian [ __ ]
because I don't know if you know like
dude they they got jellyfish that are
this big that'll like send you to the
out. Yeah. No, it's it's like the beta
of the new animals on Earth. All the new
animals spawn from there. Yeah, dude.
But so that is not where you want to be
born. You're like a what a beautiful
land. Everything kills you. Dude, it's
insane. Um so like it the wandering
spider is like one of the most venomous
spiders in existence. Um, I believe it
might be the most, but it's it's like I
don't know. They're like two twoish
inches. I mean, it's a big [ __ ]
spider. Don't get me wrong. The new
species is a wandering spider that is
three times the size of the previous
one. And guess where it's at? Australia.
The rest of the world's like, you know,
coming up with buildings and
technologies and Australia's just
playing Ark Survival Evolved. Like, [ __ ]
that. Dude, that's why I live in Iowa.
Yeah. And like, yeah, it's cold there.
Guess what can kill you? Nothing. Except
for your own stupidity. Centipedes are
the only thing on this planet that
scares me worse than a [ __ ] spider.
And I had one crawl across my foot one
time. Millipedes don't have
teeth. No, that's fine. That's not going
to [ __ ] like that's not that thing
that is that on steroids. Centipedes are
just angry little just there's no other
way. They're armored angry [ __ ] Like
that's all they are. They're hard to
kill. They're angry as [ __ ] They're
they're the bug version of a honeybger.
That's what they are. United States is
the best. We don't have that much. Well,
never mind. We had that black widow in
my the Mhm. the garage the other day. It
was a big black widow, too. I was like,
whoa. Hi. What's up, black widow? Oh,
wolf spiders don't bug me. They're But
when they bite you, they take like a
chunk, right? No, I think you're
thinking of brown. There you go. That's
the one. And those are poisonous,
venomous, whatever the word. Tissue necrosis.
necrosis.

Uh, they got tarantula hawks down there
in New Mexico. I don't know if you guys
have them here. [ __ ] is a tarantula
hawk? It's a wasp. Uh, they're huge.
They're like the biggest ones in the
United States. Um, honestly, they're
really good temperament wise. Like,
they'll go right past you. They're not
like a yellow jacket. They won't fight
you for your food. Like, they got [ __ ]
to do. They're just going on their merry
way. But if you piss them off, one of
the most painful stings on the planet.
What they do is they hunt
tarantulas. Sting them. The tarantula's
paralyzed, still alive. They drag the
tarantula into a hole, lay an egg on it,
and then the egg surgically eats all the
parts of the spider to keep the spider
alive as long as humanly possible, and
then finishes it off and goes and finds
a new [ __ ] spider once it's grown up.
It's terri. Like, why is that here,
Australia? Like, you shouldn't have just
I would I will the most terrifying thing
that could happen is just insects just
instantly become like 20 times the size
of like man size.
That'd be hilarious. I mean, even that
would be terrifying. This is
America. You think I won't shoot [ __ ] 86
blackout at a giant ladybug? You're wrong.
wrong.
You get the one peaceful insect.
What if you shoot that one? This is the
part that bothers me. Just executes the
This is the part that bothers me about
like Jurassic Park. Everybody's like,
"Oh my god, what if there were giant M?"
Like they they're still susceptible to
[ __ ] bullets. You know what I mean?
Like, I need a 20 mm rifle to kill a
T-Rex. The [ __ ] you do? No, that's a
great point. In all of those dinosaur
movies, there's never like a Bradley
with a 30 mic mic. There's never just
like there's never just Billy Bob with a
12 gauge and a raptor runs a pow. Ne not
a single [ __ ] time. Although in what
was it the third one, old boy?
He had a 4570. He had the Marlin. He
did. That's why like Jurassic Park
movies are [ __ ] Like you expect me
to believe you brought dinosaurs back to
life and there wasn't immediately if not
the people that developed the technology
a bunch of billionaire rednecks in West
Texas with a private ranch where you
could go hunt a velocraptor for
$100,000. That's exactly what would
happen immediately. Mhm. Immediately
would happen. I I don't know about
raptor bread story like it would be on
every wall a trophy raptor would be
that'd be all the rage everyone needs to
have like a dinos some type of dinosaur
on their wall. That's the part that bo
cuz it's like oh dinosaur the only
reason humans are around is cuz
dinosaurs are aren't roaming the earth.
It's like no it's not. We'd [ __ ]
dinosaurs up bro. My my fouryear-old I
took him to the zoo. I got him a little
uh a little necklace. It's a little
acrylic and in the acrylic there's a
shark tooth. Well, he keeps wanting me
to take the shark tooth out of the
[ __ ] acrylic. I'm like, I can't do
that, buddy. It doesn't come. Well, I
want the shark tooth out. I'm like, [ __ ]
it. I get on Amazon. You I bought a
pound of shark teeth for $7.99 on
Amazon. You're going to tell me
dinosaurs are us up. Get Get out of
here. Like,
is there a similar animal that's like on
the land that is as dangerous as like a
raptor today? Grizzly bear, right?
polar bear. A grizzly bear would [ __ ] a
raptor up and you don't see like people
get grizzly bears do not rule the earth.
So again, my brain maintains stupid
information. The largest land mammal in
the in North America is actually a polar
bear. It's not a grizzly bear. Polar
bears are slightly larger. But also
polar bear for some reason my brain
retained this are the only animal in
North America that actively hunts
humans. They don't give a [ __ ] They
are. So polar bear you have polar bear.
You have brown bear, black bear. There
is like lay down or make yourself tall.
Polar bear is the only one is [ __ ]
run. Like that is there's no like you
can play dead. There is it's going to
kill you. Four feet bigger than a It's
brown. Lay down black. Don't look back.
White say good night. It's white. It's
trying to colonize you. Run. [Applause]
[Applause]
It knows I have oil.
Polar bears are [Laughter]
[Laughter]
here. Run.
And do polar bears [ __ ] This chase is
Wasn't there a couple years ago someone
found like a hybrid like a polar bear
and a grizzly bear like a Kodiak got
down and it looked brown but it had the
same like jeans. I swear that was a
thing that I read somewhere. Like ligers.
ligers.
Yeah. There liger fact. They can't they
can right. They can't reproduce. They
can They're terrifyingly big though.
Have you seen Oh, yeah. Have you seen
how big a liger is? Have you seen Kenny
the Tiger? Oh, the the Down Syndrome
Tiger. Google it. Google Kenny the
Tiger. Oh my god. Wait, he's [ __ ]
Tricoma 21. Kenny the Tiger.
It's I think it's the only known tiger
like that. So, a derp. A derpy. Is he a
You've never seen that before?
How did he get cap? Did he get himself
captured? You better way out of I'm sorry.
sorry.
I That's how I get right now. Can we
just start looking at different derpy
animals? We're just laughing at derpy animal.
animal.
They're like, "What the [ __ ] do we
want?" Dude, that's like, "Bro,
where?" Like, it's a liger. Yeah. I So,
I saw one I went to one of those um cat
sanctuaries once to film like years ago
to film like a dock on them and they are
freaking huge. So, I want to know like
aside from captivity, how did that
happen? Cuz tigers is like the furthest
when mommy wants a daddy tiger very
much. That's why he didn't have kids.
Hold on. When a mommy lion wants to get
her flakes frosted and she calls Tony.
[ __ ] No. Like
so tigers the furthest they go west is
like India and the furthest east you'll
see a lion is like the horn of Africa.
Also further [ __ ] proof humans reign
supreme cuz I exactly how that happened.
We're like look at the size of that cat.
Let's catch it. Let's transport it
across the planet. And then don't think
any further than that. And they end up
just like when it gets too big and
dangerous, then they give it to one of
those sanctuaries. So they not my
problem anymore. More they caught them
and then they're like now make them
[ __ ] Yeah. Huh. Sterile. I didn't see
that on Tiger King. They just put it out
in existence again. Yeah. I think I like
going back in like what you're talking
about back in the day. It is crazy when
you hear like the war stories of like
eleph battle elephants and then it's
like, "Oh, how do you get rid of battle
elephants? Oh, let's light these uh hogs
on fire and it'll scare the [ __ ] out of them."
them."
They're just figuring out what worked
and what. I mean, but can you imagine
like not knowing what an elephant was
like? Like, dude, that's insane.
Is it?
Maybe in like spear time. Spear and
sword modern time though. No, not
modern. You know what I mean? Like I
don't know,00 like if there was like I
don't know we rolled up on an alien
planet that had like a primal
civilization and they had like the
equivalent of war elephants like there's
a marine machine gun. Debs dibs dibs
like you know what I mean? Like I wonder
what it tastes like. 100%. Like you
think the dudes on the with the shields
on the front line were like I'm I'm
going to eat that [ __ ] thing for
sure. That looks tasty. Why? I didn't
like Avatar.
Hippo is allegedly delicious. Yeah, I
would not [ __ ] with that one. Like
that's No, but eating is really like
Hippo steak is apparently fantastic. All
I want now. Is this true? Yeah, we
almost brought them to America in the
1800s. A delicious slab of hippos. Isn't
there two or three hippos in Colia
that two or 300 hippos in Colombia that
are about to cause the apocalypse? God,
I do not want to go to South America
now. It started cuz they are the most
territorial. Like there's like by 5x
they kill more humans. Yeah. It's like
the deadliest animal on the planet I
think other than mosquitoes. Like it's
those and then hippos. That doesn't
count. I mean fat chicks really are
angry. That's I'm sorry. One of them do
hit pigs.
Military. The scary part about hippos is
everybody's like, "Oh, it's a big derpy
fat [ __ ] that floats around in the water
all day." No, it's not. Their skin is
like it's thick skin. It's there's no
like layer of blubber like a whale.
their solid muscle underneath that. You
know how hippos swim? They don't. That
was a trick question. You know how they
get around in the water? They sink and
then they run across. They run across
the riverbed and when they run, they can
run under underwater for like 5 minutes
and then when they run out of water,
they jump up, take a breath, and sink
back to the bottom and run along the
bottom of the river. They run at like 35
mph. 28 m an hour. Yeah. That's [ __ ]
underwater. On land. Okay.
I was going to say I can't faster than
Insane Bolt. Oh my god. That's like
that is And how much do we like? They
weigh like what? 3,000 lb or some [ __ ]
Hippo weight. Nope. Out of there. Holy
[ __ ] At 28 mph, you're just dead. 3 to
9,000 lb. They get up to 9,900 lb. Damn.
[ __ ] that. Yeah. You're looking like
that's that's a [ __ ] car. Like that's
a midsize SUV. That's bigger than my
Hummer. Yeah, that's 9,000 lbs is a big
car. That's a large truck. Hummer. Yeah.
With a 3,000lb battery. And
that's a lot of fun. And then it went to
kill you. Yeah. And it's delicious. And
it's delicious. We're 100% going. That's
the hippo is the reason that humanity
because I guess like you know, all of
civilization, the creative civilization
was in Africa. And just somebody one day
was like, "I'm done dealing with the
armored fat water tractors. Let's get
the [ __ ] out of here, guys. Let's go
somewhere else." And they end up in
everywhere. I tweeted about that the
other day. Really? I was like when I was
like 14, 15 sitting in history class. I
was like, "It's [ __ ] It's wild to me
that somebody would just leave like
Britain or France or even the East
Coast. Like the most advanced
civilizations on Earth. You got paved
roads. If you got money, you got running
water. [ __ ] Power is coming up pretty soon."
soon."
like this. I'm going to go camp for the
rest of my life out in the wilderness.
I'm going to migrate west and just be
left the [ __ ] alone. It's like why the
would you do that? And then at 30 I'm
like never mind. I get it. I volunteer
to go to Mars right now. I'm sorry. How
many people are there? None. [ __ ] Okay,
dude. I was reading a few a few years
ago. The internet's beating. I'm good. I
was reading a few years ago. I don't
know if it's still a thing, but that uh
disabled vets and um there was another
category could actually still homestead
in parts of Alaska. Like it's way up in
the [ __ ] northern circle, but like
you can homestead. I I don't I would be
terrible at homesteading. I like
electricity, too. That's fair. That's
fair. And comfort. There's that fantasy
though, right? There's that part that
left me a couple years ago. I was Oh,
yeah. You're 40 now. I I looked at God.
I was like, "That's not for
me. This uh [ __ ] goes south." Uh I'm
taking other people's stuff really
quick. Way easier than figuring out how
to do it myself. But your son will be up there
where the people like try it out. They
try going homestead and then they you
hear the video, they're like, "Guys,
it's been two months and it's just it's
a little bit harder than we thought it
was going to be."
And then you have Oh, who's the tall
guy? Um, Outdoor
Boys, you know, Outdoor Boy, it's the
He's He does um I'm camping out in
Alaska. He does it all the time. I know
who I can see. He has a family, but he
goes out. He's like, I'm just going to
go live out uh for three days in 40°
weather. And he is
[ __ ] good at everything. Yeah, that
man is He spent a lot of time honing his
craft. I know who you're talking about.
I can't remember his damn name. Outdoor
Boys. I just don't know his name from
it. You always just see him like You
haven't seen a [ __ ] Nick? No, dude. Oh,
I I will say it is. I can fall asleep to
that stuff. It is him like I'm building
a uh what is it? Like an igloo. But he
shows how to build into the snow. He's
like, "Okay, this snow." He shows you
how to measure it. Okay, we're about 14t
deep snow. And then he builds a house
going down. He's like, "Okay, this will
be my shelter. We're going to use ice,
right? Or we'll use a fire right here.
What here's you're looking for?" Was it
Luke? Luke. Yep. Luke. Luke with Outdoor
Boys here. They have that like ASMR
quality to it where he's like cutting
the ice. A lot of those guys have just
long sections where you listen to No,
he's also like he explains that like he
from what I've seen he never does
anything just for like aesthetics. It
always has a purpose. He's like you want
this this channel right here to go a
little bit past your house so the wind
doesn't come in your front door. And
it's like it's always just [ __ ] you'd
never think of. I know now like one
thing I've learned from that if you're
ever out in the cold and it's like
freezing and there's snow or anything
like that, first thing you do is build a
massive fire where your bed and your
home is going to be and then you put
that out. You want that soil to [ __ ]
pretty much burn heats up all that earth
and then you build a small fire next to
it. Then you start building your uh
shelter there because then you're warm
all night because that ground is heated.
That's where you lose a majority of your
body heat is through the ground. So he's
like, "Yeah, you do this." And then you
watch other people that don't do that
and they're like, "I'm retarded."
Thinking, "Oh, that's too much work."
He's like, "It's 2:00 in the morning.
It's 30° right now and I am dying
because of how cold it is." Him, he'll
show his thermometer. It's like 40°
while it was like -20 outside. Just like
right outside the shelter. Dude, every
time I watch like Naked Nator Survivor,
it is like, "You guys are [ __ ] this
up." I'm telling you like right now if
I'm ever on one of these shows the naked
and afraid I will pay Nick
and if I can watch electrician
me with the world's smallest blur
booger put up the one in there like your
head on that one dude
booger there every time I watch that
show I was like the minute The
millisecond they drop me off, I'm
finding the ocean, the lake, the river,
whatever body of water they drop my ass
in air, I am covering my entire body in
mud. Like an inch of mud, cuz I am not
with all the mosquitoes and bugs around
the entire time. And I'm also not going
to get the world's worst sunburn. Like I
that's the first thing I would do right
out of the gate cuz every [ __ ] time
it's like the second night and they're
just crying as mosquitoes are eating
them alive. Oh yeah. I I watch that uh
that show alone and like they always go
to like colder places, but I always see
them and it's it's like, oh, I'm going
to set, you know, four or five traps or
I'm going to put out like three or four
lines. Like my entire coastline is
covered in fishing lines. Like, you
know, saturation is what we're going
with here. And and I have 700 traps set
on the other side. So, I'm going to work
on building my house. Then I'm going to
go find dinner for the next two and a
half weeks. Like, [ __ ] man. Saturate
that [ __ ] But I energy and I don't
know. I'm I'm not I I like Fritos, man.

forget. There was one show. It was
really funny. I can't remember the one
the one Navy Seal in it. Uh black guy
bald head. Not David Gogggins. He still
does content. But it was it was like a
Navy Seal, a Green Beret, and like two
other military dudes. Like I think one
of them was like a survivalist. But they
had a a show. It was only like one
season long. But the the premise of the show
show
was it's like your turn and you're up.
And so it would be like the four hosts
of Unsub is what this show was, but it
was like it's Eli's turn. At some point
in the next month, we're going to kidnap
Eli and drop his ass off in the middle
of some environment and he has to like
survive and make it to this objective.
But like they got so like one dude went
scuba diving and the seals were already
under the water waiting for him. So when
he went down, they yonked his ass and
then just stripped him of all his [ __ ]
and dropped him off in the desert and he
had to like clear 30 miles in like this
amount of time or whatever. And then
there was another one where uh the dude
was going to a like a conf like shot
show or some [ __ ] like that. And they
had like corroborated with the hotel
that they were going to chase this dude
down. And they chased him down and they
had it all planned out like we're going
to start chasing him here. the only way
way to go is this direction because this
guy's going to come and block this
hallway. So, he's going to turn left. At
the end of that hallway, there's an
elevator. He's gonna have to take it.
It's the only option. So, this dude
goes, runs, gets in the elevator. The
elevator doors open, they shut. He
thinks he made it. The
elevator into the back of a semitr. So,
when he gets in the elevator, it just
[ __ ] pulls off. And it was like the
loading dock of the building. And they
they got him. It like it was funny
[ __ ] I got to remember what that show
was called. It was hilarious. I would be
so pissed at my prince.
How could you ever? That would give me
trauma. Hey man, we got to get in the
How do you ever trust your friends ever?
Take stairs from then on out. I hate my
friends. It's your turn. Okay, let me go
panic. You guys could have just asked me.
me.
Oh. Uh, what did you guys do today? You
guys filmed a little for uh habitually
fat and about woodworking or furniture?
Uh, furniture. Yeah, we went to the
Texas furniture museum. Didn't know that
was a thing. We didn't either. So, we
went out. Were you driving like
No. Like, so they have this thing out in
what the hell's the name of that town?
New brothel. New Bronals. New Bronals.
Okay. Yeah. Brontheals. There you go.
That's the word. Um, we went out there.
Brothel is a very different place. Yeah,
I know, right? Um, we went out and uh
originally we had gotten well my my MS
had gotten a hold of a blacksmith and
this guy was actually a former forged
and fire champion and [ __ ] like that and
he's like, "Hey, I got some stuff set
aside." He's Alex or Alex? Alex. Alex.
Alex. Yeah, Alex knows you. I know Alex.
Yeah. And so he's like, "I got some
stuff stuff set aside for for you and
Nick." And I was like, "All right,
cool." So we went out there and forged.
Uh, turns out I'm pretty much a
professional. I'm better in forging in
every way because Nick was talking to a
fan and getting free beer. Yeah,
everybody knows Nick. Some uh like
Native American dude in uh he had like
full get up cuz it's like a Renaissance
like festival thing there. So he had
like this full uh get up and he was a
Marine Corps crew chief for 30 years.
Oh, this was like cosplay World War II
or No, it was like cosplay 1800s history
buff in character. He was like in
character, but then he saw me. He was
like, "I love your video." Like he went
by his hair and like pulling out.
He broke character. I looked him up. Uh
I posted him on Instagram. Look at my
Instagram real quick. You can see his
outfit. Yeah. He looked good. He looked
dope. Yeah. And he was super big fan of
you and I was I was in there forging
away. Um you know, just want you to know
Doug Marqua, I'm coming for the next
championship. Uh over on Forging. I love
that show. It's it's wild, but I love
that show. And then um so the uh not the
owners but the
No, no, it's on my actual wall, not a story.
story.
Oh. Oh, no [ __ ] Yeah. Nice. I'll send
that to him. Yeah, dude. He was [ __ ]
Was he just stoked? Yeah, it was super
cool. He's a crew chief. Survived a
helicopter crash from 6,000 feet. Like
he was cool as [ __ ]
What? It's a 30-year Marine Corps
veteran. Holy [ __ ] And a former Huey
chief crew chief. God dang. I should we
call him crew Native American.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I couldn't.
Um but just
like we cannot guy's going to be in the
comments section like this piece of
[ __ ] No, I'm sorry.
Like instantly he's like no. Uh, but
then we went and saw they did a cannon
firing and there was a guy there and he
was actually kind of like I think around
me and Nick's age. He's been doing this
for like 20 years and like told us
everything we ever wanted to know about
this cannon like all sorts of
information like how different cannons
worked. Like this dude that was his tism
which was great and like so we all
always love like finding people who just
geek out about their topic. And so one
of the last things we went and visited
was No, [ __ ] that. Go back to the
cannons. Oh, you want to go back to the
canons? cannon thing was wild because I
was like I was like obviously you guys
don't have like a Ford observer and
you're like calling in like coordinates
and [ __ ] on a 1800's cannon, right? I
was like so you guys just [ __ ] like
give her the warning shot and then d
like just Kentucky windage it in from
there. And he's like he's like kind of
but he's like you see the setup back
here like 10 ft back from the cannon.
He's like, "This is where they would
make the charges that they're shooting."
And the dude manning that station is
like one of, if not the smartest dudes
on the battlefield. He's basically a
mathematician. So the dude at the back
after they fire once would make the
charge and like how much black powder
and the ball they were shooting and
everything. He would adjust the powder
as they go to get more or less distance
and gauge the fuse on if it was a high
explosive round or when they wanted it
to explode. So it's just this weird It's
like the complete 180 of like a sniper
where it's like I have match grade
ammunition that's a static thing and I'm
going to adjust the scope. It's flipped
to where like now the scope is the
static thing and I'm going to reload my
own ammunition to make it work on the
back end and on the during battle during
battle and they're like a well-trained
crew could fire every 15 seconds. So
this dude is just doing math dude back
there with a potions like a [ __ ]
muppet. I was like holy that's really impressive.
impressive.
15 seconds. Holy [ __ ] Yeah. It's like a
oneman artillery crew just and it's just
cannonballs that are either I mean
bouncing. That one was six pounds. Yeah,
it was a sixb cannon. So just a six
pound [ __ ] chain ones were terrible.
Well, he was explaining like there was a
really cool story about um a group of
like 300 Americans after the Alamo. They
got cornered and [ __ ] like that and like
what they were all doing to each other.
It's a really in-depth like it takes a
long time to explain, but he explains
that the Spanish at one point in time to
like convince them to surrender cuz they
ended up surrendering is they were
loading chains, just chains into their
uh uh cannons and firing them at the
treetops and chopping down the tops of
the trees. Chopping the trees down on
top of them to get them to surrender.
Yeah. I mean that was absolutely the
that worked for me when they had the the
balls like you're back to back and it's
chain length and you get to see that
start rotating through the air and just
that chain starts cutting [ __ ] apart and absolutely
absolutely
decimating terrifying. Also thinking
about on the battlefield especially what
line formation did you do? You got in a
[ __ ] line and just like fire and
they're shooting giant cannonballs and
then you watch your buddy just get
obliterated by a eight pound. I mean, he
was piece of iron, but he was explaining
like the different they throw in there.
He's like, they throw like forks and
spoons in there, cut up horseshoes, toss
them in there, like grapeshot, like
explaining how all the loads work. I
like God, man. Humans are really really
good at killing each other. Oh, yeah.
But then, oh, I do. Yeah. I wouldn't
want to go out by spoon. No. Like,
please. That's That's the last way I
want. At least making a knife. Oh, man.
And then we got into the furniture
museum and I'm not going to lie. I like
your guys. We went to a We did some
cannons. I met a Native American and
then we went to the furniture museum.
Well, I guess the is called What's it
What's the What's the officially fed?
What's the Swedish meatballs? IKEA.
IKEA. That's your museum. You guys are
just walking around IKEA just drunk off
our ass. Wow. I'm I'm gonna be totally
honest with you though. Going to the
furniture part, I was kind of like least
excited about that, if that makes sense.
And we get in there and this dude, I
understand how people feel when I talk
about missiles now. He had me like
stareyed about furniture. He was like
tying furniture into the American Civil
War. And like 5 minutes into this rant,
I was like, "Holy, this guy's making old
furniture entertaining. This is
fantastic." It was crazy. He had us
looking at one chair. Well, two chairs
technically for like I don't know 15
minutes. 15 minutes. Yeah, he had a
tattoo of the chair. It's his favorite
chair. He had a tattoo of this. It just
looks like a normal old dinner chair.
[ __ ] listen to this.
He's got a tattoo of a chair right here.
And he's got a pin of the same tattoo
and it says, "Ask me about my favorite chair."
chair."
So obviously I asked him about the
chair. He's like, "Come here. I'll show
you." He pulls out. There's two
identical chairs. I mean
identical like not like, "Oh, those are
two chairs in the same." No, they're the
same [ __ ] chair. Like the grain was
the same. It was
insane. And he's like, "Okay, so one of
these is original made by this famous
furniture maker, some German dude that migrated
migrated
in." He goes, "And then they wanted to
recreate this style and Texas had a
bunch of people in prison. So they
wanted prisoners to start making
furniture. So they gave this chair, the
OG one, to the prisoners and said, "Make
exact copies of this chair." And the
prisoners did it to the point where like
one of the corners like at the very
front of the chair had like broken off
and was glued back on. The prisoners did
that. You could see where they broke the
corner off the chair and repaired it.
And there was like one piece where there
was like a big chunk like a gouge out of
the seat. They matched the gouge. Like
it was literally 1800's prisoners being smartasses
smartasses
or or beat malicious and not wanting to
[ __ ] up. Just malicious compliance. I'm so
so
sorry. Just terrified. It was crazy.
Dude had me engaged in furniture for
like hours. He tattooed a chair that's
not his. Does he own the chair or is he
No, he's the curator of the museum and
he's been working there forever. So he's like
like
is crazy. We found the 1865 version of a
MAGA hat. That was that wasn't
interesting. So, there's a stitch on the
back of a chair that he explains and
it's called the Lincoln Stitch. So, if
you were a Confederate and you had a
Lincoln stitch or if you were in
Confederate States and had a chair with
a Lincoln stitch, people when they
walked in immediately knew which side
you were on. Yeah. If you if you had a
Lincoln rocking chair, Lincoln rocker, a
Lincoln style rocking chair, it was
basically like What is a Lincoln style
rocking chair? It's just a particular
style of chair, but it's associated with
like Abraham Lincoln. Okay. So, like it
was like, oh, if you have that chair,
obviously you like Abraham Lincoln,
which means you're not on the
Confederate, which in Texas, part of the
Confederacy. So, and then he had like
this story about how the people that
owned this house that this furniture
museum's in, uh, they had this chair and
their sons were, um, they, you know,
obviously they're in the South, so like
they're part of the Confederacy, but
they didn't want to be. So, they had
this plan where they were going to try
to escape to Mexico and then take a boat
up to New Orleans to fight for the Union
and they ended up like getting killed
and it like ended the whole family's
bloodline. It was like it was a crazy
ass furniture museum. Okay. Like, dude,
this this guy like tismed off in a way.
What the [ __ ] did I miss out on? I'm
going to say they text me, you want to
go to a furniture museum, you want no I
what I'm going to do taxes. I went in
and we're going to do anything else. I
went into this with the mindset of like,
all right, we're testing my skills. Can
I dick joke my way into making a
furniture museum entertaining? And the
whole time I'm
like, "Holy shit." It was It was really
crazy. I was not prepared for it. Dude
like crushed it. It was really really
cool. He was explaining like the whole
like, "Oh, in this country they use this
to build and they use this wood here
when they moved here in this time." And
then he's like, instead of these bricks,
which they did with like the
architecture in these houses, he was
explaining like how the German roots fed

that a lot of it boils down to not just a difference in armor, but a difference
a difference in armor, but a difference in armorament. Cuz like a katana is not
in armorament. Cuz like a katana is not a stabbing weapon, can it? Yes. But it's
a stabbing weapon, can it? Yes. But it's not really designed for. It's more of a
not really designed for. It's more of a slashing weapon. And then but like a
slashing weapon. And then but like a knight is going to have a broadsword, a
knight is going to have a broadsword, a claymore. Those are stabbing weapons.
claymore. Those are stabbing weapons. Those are also slashing weapons. So like
Those are also slashing weapons. So like the samurai is probably quicker on his

That is war. When guns don't work cuz they were shooting at each other out of
they were shooting at each other out of ammo. Now it is a knife fight and now it
ammo. Now it is a knife fight and now it is I'm biting you. I'm stabbing you. I'm
is I'm biting you. I'm stabbing you. I'm wrestling with you. I'm cutting your
wrestling with you. I'm cutting your hand and this is what war looks like.
hand and this is what war looks like. And then it's still the res for each
And then it's still the res for each other too. I'll say those drones are by
other too. I'll say those drones are by far. So there's like I'm sure you'll
far. So there's like I'm sure you'll love talking you understand this very
love talking you understand this very well. There's like certain throughout
well. There's like certain throughout history, there's a couple of paradigm
history, there's a couple of paradigm shifts in warfare, right? Like the
shifts in warfare, right? Like the machine gun, black powder, blackowder,
machine gun, black powder, blackowder, steel. Yeah, the tank. Maybe there's
steel. Yeah, the tank. Maybe there's like five or six or whatever it is. But,
like five or six or whatever it is. But, uh, I feel like drones are one of them.
uh, I feel like drones are one of them. It's one of those paradigm shifts where
It's one of those paradigm shifts where it's like this has changed the equation
it's like this has changed the equation in some like really fundamental way.
in some like really fundamental way. Mhm. And the crazy thing about the
Mhm. And the crazy thing about the drones is that you cannot hear them
drones is that you cannot hear them until it's already too late.
until it's already too late. The that you'll hear that at about 50
The that you'll hear that at about 50 m. A drone can move 50 m in 2 seconds.
m. A drone can move 50 m in 2 seconds. So think of all those footage that
So think of all those footage that you've seen probably on like Instagram
you've seen probably on like Instagram or wherever where like you see somebody
or wherever where like you see somebody get merked by a drone. They hear it and
get merked by a drone. They hear it and then one, two, gone. Like it
then one, two, gone. Like it is unbelievable.
is unbelievable. We we talked uh at the Pentagon. It was
We we talked uh at the Pentagon. It was the one thing. It's soldiers are going
the one thing. It's soldiers are going to have to start learning like three gun
to have to start learning like three gun and then shotguns and I guarantee that
and then shotguns and I guarantee that is going to be part of the combat load
is going to be part of the combat load is how do I take this out? SK shooters
is how do I take this out? SK shooters could do it really quick. Soldiers are
could do it really quick. Soldiers are not going to be [ __ ] hey here's I do
not going to be [ __ ] hey here's I do this and I can operate on a 20-in
this and I can operate on a 20-in shotgun bird shot take it down. Most I
shotgun bird shot take it down. Most I Dude, it it sucks to say I give 95% of
Dude, it it sucks to say I give 95% of soldiers a pistol. You're going to suck
soldiers a pistol. You're going to suck [ __ ] with a pistol. Period. It It
[ __ ] with a pistol. Period. It It doesn't matter. You're not If you
doesn't matter. You're not If you haven't trained with a pistol, it is the
haven't trained with a pistol, it is the hardest shooting thing. Yes, you can
hardest shooting thing. Yes, you can shoot an M4 AR. I hand you a pistol, 9
shoot an M4 AR. I hand you a pistol, 9 mil, doesn't matter. You are not going

to be good. and then being able to pull that out from concealed or even open
that out from concealed or even open holster and then transition to a target.
holster and then transition to a target. You cannot do it. I can do
You cannot do it. I can do a holster my fast shot 0.55 seconds from
a holster my fast shot 0.55 seconds from here to 7 m I can do a 0.55 draw to
here to 7 m I can do a 0.55 draw to shoot on a beep and then from a actual
shoot on a beep and then from a actual concealed.92.88 on average. That took
concealed.92.88 on average. That took [ __ ] autistic level of training to
[ __ ] autistic level of training to get there. Now, your average general
get there. Now, your average general soldier. Oh, I dead. Yeah. Dead. Yeah.
soldier. Oh, I dead. Yeah. Dead. Yeah. Yeah. I The last time I was here, I was
Yeah. I The last time I was here, I was talking about how like when I deployed
talking about how like when I deployed to Iraq, I was there during like it it
to Iraq, I was there during like it it was kind of the gay part of the war. It
was kind of the gay part of the war. It was like the occupation. It's like IEDs
was like the occupation. It's like IEDs on the ground. It was like all that
on the ground. It was like all that nonsense. Yeah. We were not invading. It
nonsense. Yeah. We were not invading. It was not We had such different
was not We had such different experience. Yeah. You got initial push.
experience. Yeah. You got initial push. You got you got to do I'll say this.
You got you got to do I'll say this. Your ro was different than mine. Uh but
Your ro was different than mine. Uh but so now I would say like the war in
so now I would say like the war in Ukraine the that with Russia like it is
Ukraine the that with Russia like it is the gay part of the war. It is just
the gay part of the war. It is just drones. Like you cannot infiltrate to
drones. Like you cannot infiltrate to your position on the zero line in the
your position on the zero line in the trenches without a [ __ ] ton of drones
trenches without a [ __ ] ton of drones just with you. It is the part of the war
just with you. It is the part of the war where it's like just stalemate. can't
where it's like just stalemate. can't move, can't even get to your
move, can't even get to your position, like
position, like big old terrifying when it comes to like
big old terrifying when it comes to like the the gun thing. And this is may maybe
the the gun thing. And this is may maybe be a video you want to look into cuz I
be a video you want to look into cuz I just found out about it uh recently in
just found out about it uh recently in Nevada. Um Benelli is great shotgun
Nevada. Um Benelli is great shotgun manufacturer. US has used Benelli for a
manufacturer. US has used Benelli for a long time. They just designed a new
long time. They just designed a new shotgun specifically with a new shell
shotgun specifically with a new shell for drones. They just designed it. So I
for drones. They just designed it. So I it's in testing right now in Nevada. And
it's in testing right now in Nevada. And I know I and what made me like kind of
I know I and what made me like kind of like look into that is you brought up an
like look into that is you brought up an incredibly like I know you probably did
incredibly like I know you probably did it to be satirical on [ __ ] Twitter,
it to be satirical on [ __ ] Twitter, but it was a really important point. He
but it was a really important point. He was like every single infantryman should
was like every single infantryman should have to shoot clay pigeons in basic
have to shoot clay pigeons in basic training or something along those lines.
training or something along those lines. They're starting to do that. Yeah. I was
They're starting to do that. Yeah. I was like that makes perfect sense. They're
like that makes perfect sense. They're starting to do shotguns against drones
starting to do shotguns against drones in in boot camp or not boot camp but
in in boot camp or not boot camp but like I don't know. I saw we talked to
like I don't know. I saw we talked to the [ __ ] Pentagon like the dude
the [ __ ] Pentagon like the dude that's in charge of all future weapon
that's in charge of all future weapon systems. We talked about that to him.
systems. We talked about that to him. Here's my uh the my launch video is
Here's my uh the my launch video is going to be about the Hunter killer
going to be about the Hunter killer teams and the 101st Airborne. These guys
teams and the 101st Airborne. These guys on the ISV infantry squad vehicles.
on the ISV infantry squad vehicles. They're the dudes that are getting the
They're the dudes that are getting the first guys that are getting the FPV
first guys that are getting the FPV drones like attack drones uh organic to
drones like attack drones uh organic to the squad. 101st Airborne are getting
the squad. 101st Airborne are getting those.
those. It's these 100k teams and also uh about
It's these 100k teams and also uh about you you have a squad in one word. Dude,
you you have a squad in one word. Dude, the whole the whole new the new doctrine
the whole the whole new the new doctrine is that you push out this recon team
is that you push out this recon team that does all your counter UAV and also
that does all your counter UAV and also your offensive UAV. It's like separate
your offensive UAV. It's like separate platoon. Nick, do you know what this is?
platoon. Nick, do you know what this is? It's called War Zone from Call of Duty
It's called War Zone from Call of Duty because I just unlocked a drone. I'm
because I just unlocked a drone. I'm doing that and then I have a jammer. All
doing that and then I have a jammer. All I want all I want is for drone warfare
I want all I want is for drone warfare to lead to the point where there's one
to lead to the point where there's one dude in the squad and his job is to
dude in the squad and his job is to carry an M4 or whatever the [ __ ] the
carry an M4 or whatever the [ __ ] the army switches over to and then he just
army switches over to and then he just has a big ass backpack full of bullets
has a big ass backpack full of bullets and on top of the backpack is a 9 mm
and on top of the backpack is a 9 mm little Gatling gun this big. I just want
little Gatling gun this big. I just want to I want a miniature sea whiz on the
to I want a miniature sea whiz on the day
day and 22.
and 22. How awesome would that be for drone
How awesome would that be for drone defense? I I tell you right now, drone
defense? I I tell you right now, drone defense is big in the air defense world.
defense is big in the air defense world. So like we have two counter UAS schools,
So like we have two counter UAS schools, but like every single day they're
but like every single day they're like, "How can we stop them? How can we
like, "How can we stop them? How can we stop?" 100% a 22 minigun that just you
stop?" 100% a 22 minigun that just you walk a dude. Joe Schmo, Private Joe, he
walk a dude. Joe Schmo, Private Joe, he has to carry the the ship backpack
like it is what ships what's the miniguns the ships use? Uh sea whiz the
miniguns the ships use? Uh sea whiz the seaw. Yeah weapons R2FU. Yeah, that's
seaw. Yeah weapons R2FU. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like or they have the
what I'm saying. Like or they have the like they've been working on the
like they've been working on the freaking robotic mule basically is what
freaking robotic mule basically is what it amounts to. But like imagine if you
it amounts to. But like imagine if you just got to that point or even a normal
just got to that point or even a normal mule like bring a [ __ ] donkey with
mule like bring a [ __ ] donkey with you and strap a little sea whiz to its
you and strap a little sea whiz to its back. I will say that was tried like I
back. I will say that was tried like I went to the artillery museum that was a
went to the artillery museum that was a thing. They put a small artillery gun on
thing. They put a small artillery gun on back of a mule. Uh they tested it once.
back of a mule. Uh they tested it once. They fired it. The mule immediately
They fired it. The mule immediately panicked like injured the person in
panicked like injured the person in charge of it and took off running. So I
charge of it and took off running. So I I may may need to may need to like
I may may need to may need to like remanufacture.
remanufacture. I feel like there's a difference between
I feel like there's a difference between artillery and 9 mil mini gun. Dude I
artillery and 9 mil mini gun. Dude I think a 22 minigun could Yeah. The
think a 22 minigun could Yeah. The problem with that is it's rimfire.
problem with that is it's rimfire. rimfire ammo's kind of for full auto.
rimfire ammo's kind of for full auto. So, I wouldn't trust it, but any smaller
So, I wouldn't trust it, but any smaller caliber. What's a 38? FN57 would be good
caliber. What's a 38? FN57 would be good for it,
for it, dude. That and then it's just like it's
dude. That and then it's just like it's just automatic. It does like a sea whiz.
just automatic. It does like a sea whiz. Yeah. Close in weapon system. Sea whiz
Yeah. Close in weapon system. Sea whiz and then p the private mosquito wings
and then p the private mosquito wings has to carry that [ __ ] weapon system,
has to carry that [ __ ] weapon system, but you're safe. That's all I'm saying.
but you're safe. That's all I'm saying. So they're watching and I'm the boys.
So they're watching and I'm the boys. [ __ ] best job I
ever writing that down. I'm going to email Butler. We're we're going to we're
email Butler. We're we're going to we're going to move on past that cuz I I have
going to move on past that cuz I I have too many NDAs with my name on really go
too many NDAs with my name on really go into too far like kinetic systems is not
into too far like kinetic systems is not really a big electronic system. My unit
really a big electronic system. My unit in the National Guard. So 133rd uh out
in the National Guard. So 133rd uh out of the 34th Infantry Division came up
of the 34th Infantry Division came up with the Iron Man backpack cuz that was
with the Iron Man backpack cuz that was like our unit's nickname was the Iron
like our unit's nickname was the Iron Man. And they we came up with the Iron
Man. And they we came up with the Iron Man backpack. I wasn't in yet. It was a
Man backpack. I wasn't in yet. It was a group that on their What's the Iron Man
group that on their What's the Iron Man backpack? Iron Man backpack. When they
backpack? Iron Man backpack. When they did it, they took the You know what it
did it, they took the You know what it is? It's like a thing. It's developed
is? It's like a thing. It's developed now. The dudes that invented it got paid
now. The dudes that invented it got paid out for inventing it. And uh they took
out for inventing it. And uh they took the what's the [ __ ] PLA hard shell
the what's the [ __ ] PLA hard shell plastic thing for your back off a rucks
plastic thing for your back off a rucks sack the frame. Oh yeah. They took a
sack the frame. Oh yeah. They took a rucks sack frame basically and took two
rucks sack frame basically and took two 50 cal ammo cans and mounted it up by
50 cal ammo cans and mounted it up by the shoulders and ran the helicopter
the shoulders and ran the helicopter belt feeder and they just filled it with
belt feeder and they just filled it with 5.56 or 308, whatever gun they had. And
5.56 or 308, whatever gun they had. And they ran it from the backpack straight
they ran it from the backpack straight into the side of the 240. And that's
into the side of the 240. And that's what their 240 gunner had. and they like
what their 240 gunner had. and they like basically maggyvered them and all the
basically maggyvered them and all the all the 133rd guys in I think they were
all the 133rd guys in I think they were in Iraq when they did it. It might have
in Iraq when they did it. It might have been Afghanistan. They were in either
been Afghanistan. They were in either one, but they invented and like they had
one, but they invented and like they had multiple dudes running around with this
multiple dudes running around with this 240 and just a two a beltfed 240 with a
240 and just a two a beltfed 240 with a helicopter strap coming off their rucks
helicopter strap coming off their rucks sack and that's what they were carrying
sack and that's what they were carrying in battle and the army's like
in battle and the army's like give give those guys a check. for
give give those guys a check. for taking I real quick before uh miniguns,
taking I real quick before uh miniguns, you know, in movies and they got a
you know, in movies and they got a backpack thing.
backpack thing. Miniguns the they shoot blanks in those
Miniguns the they shoot blanks in those movies to control a minigun. Uh I have
movies to control a minigun. Uh I have video of
video of uh somebody shooting a minigun with 762
uh somebody shooting a minigun with 762 blanks. I have videos of me mag dumping
blanks. I have videos of me mag dumping a minigun. What? 100 rounds, 120 rounds
a minigun. What? 100 rounds, 120 rounds a second or 75 rounds a second. Uh 3,000
a second or 75 rounds a second. Uh 3,000 rounds a minute, give or take. There you
rounds a minute, give or take. There you go. Autism. Yeah. Now, now the
go. Autism. Yeah. Now, now the difference when you actually put real
difference when you actually put real loads, not blanks. Yeah. The recoil is
loads, not blanks. Yeah. The recoil is much different, bro. Watching. We have
much different, bro. Watching. We have it on video. It's like we test if we did
it on video. It's like we test if we did a B with a human holding and like
a B with a human holding and like braced. Boom. Bigger guy.
braced. Boom. Bigger guy. It was like
It was like this. And we have big dink hitting right
this. And we have big dink hitting right in front of his foot and then letting
in front of his foot and then letting He's like a big dude. Yeah. And it was
He's like a big dude. Yeah. And it was instantaneous. Had to let go of that
instantaneous. Had to let go of that [ __ ] trigger. We're like, "Oh, oh my
[ __ ] trigger. We're like, "Oh, oh my god." Cuz I remember we were all filming
god." Cuz I remember we were all filming it and then I looked over at people on
it and then I looked over at people on the right side. I was like, "Actually,
the right side. I was like, "Actually, you all get over here real quick." And
you all get over here real quick." And they're like, "Why?" I was like,
"I just whipped right instantaneously." And you're talking about 2 seconds. It
And you're talking about 2 seconds. It is one, two, three at the ground kicking
is one, two, three at the ground kicking to the
to the right. Terrifying. 240 way more
right. Terrifying. 240 way more manageable. I bet Nick could do it.
manageable. I bet Nick could do it. I bet they have it all over DVDs. Yeah,
I bet they have it all over DVDs. Yeah, don't be a [ __ ] Beautiful. They have
don't be a [ __ ] Beautiful. They have the DVDs uh video. I might have it on my
the DVDs uh video. I might have it on my system.
They use still the minigun like platform though. Yeah. And they just fed a 240.
though. Yeah. And they just fed a 240. They just fed it straight into the 240
They just fed it straight into the 240 from the I mean, think about it. You
from the I mean, think about it. You don't have to carry a 50 round starter
don't have to carry a 50 round starter belt if it's all linked together. A 50
belt if it's all linked together. A 50 round starter. Yeah, there's This is
round starter. Yeah, there's This is literally my unit. So, the Red Bulls,
literally my unit. So, the Red Bulls, like the dude's got the Red Bull on his
like the dude's got the Red Bull on his helmet. Yes. Yep. That's the one. Here's
helmet. Yes. Yep. That's the one. Here's the the actual one like from my unit.
the the actual one like from my unit. Step one. I have never seen this [ __ ]
Step one. I have never seen this [ __ ] thing. Step one, if you're on gun team,
thing. Step one, if you're on gun team, rip a belt. But that's actually not bad
rip a belt. But that's actually not bad at all. That's That's actually awesome.
at all. That's That's actually awesome. That's way better, you know, like the
That's way better, you know, like the big It's like the convention for
big It's like the convention for defense. Yeah. So, they tried copying
defense. Yeah. So, they tried copying that. Basically, a bunch of defense
that. Basically, a bunch of defense companies after that showed up at a USA
companies after that showed up at a USA with beltfed 240s link
with beltfed 240s link linkfed trying to like let me get that
linkfed trying to like let me get that contract. I think the futures I really
contract. I think the futures I really liked for the um next generation weapon,
liked for the um next generation weapon, I really liked the I think it was uh
I really liked the I think it was uh General Dynamics. that came out with the
General Dynamics. that came out with the plastic cased ammunition. I thought that
plastic cased ammunition. I thought that was genius. I thought the guns were ugly
was genius. I thought the guns were ugly as [ __ ] but the idea of plastic cased
as [ __ ] but the idea of plastic cased ammunition, man. Like injection mold a
ammunition, man. Like injection mold a thousand rounds at once. That was my
thousand rounds at once. That was my biggest complaint being on gun team is
biggest complaint being on gun team is how heavy ammo is. I got to go and test
how heavy ammo is. I got to go and test the fire that weapon. First of all,
the fire that weapon. First of all, their one has like a recoil mitigation,
their one has like a recoil mitigation, so you barely feel the fact that it
so you barely feel the fact that it feels like a full 762 round. Basically,
feels like a full 762 round. Basically, you shoot it, you could pick up those
you shoot it, you could pick up those rounds, and you know when you pick up
rounds, and you know when you pick up hot brass, it's like hot. Those were
hot brass, it's like hot. Those were cold. Those plastic. Wasn't that part of
cold. Those plastic. Wasn't that part of the issue, though, is they had they had
the issue, though, is they had they had an issue dissipating heat because a lot
an issue dissipating heat because a lot of the heat from the gun when it fired
of the heat from the gun when it fired was carried out of the gun in the brass.
was carried out of the gun in the brass. So, I have to assume based on the fact
So, I have to assume based on the fact that they didn't win the contract and
that they didn't win the contract and that Sig did. I just have to do the
that Sig did. I just have to do the reverse math. It's got to be some issue
reverse math. It's got to be some issue with that, right? Like I have to assume
with that, right? Like I have to assume that after they fired it uh x amount of
that after they fired it uh x amount of times that the barrels wore out faster
times that the barrels wore out faster or something. Plastic is melting in
or something. Plastic is melting in there or something like in the dark. It
there or something like in the dark. It was probably a similar issue that the
was probably a similar issue that the Abrams has. So the the Abrams shell,
Abrams has. So the the Abrams shell, right, the 120 that we use. Oh yeah, you
right, the 120 that we use. Oh yeah, you showed me that before. I always forget I
showed me that before. I always forget I need that stuff. Uh so the Abrams shell
need that stuff. Uh so the Abrams shell itself, all that is actually metal is
itself, all that is actually metal is the bottom of it. It has a stick in the
the bottom of it. It has a stick in the middle. It's called the aft cap uh for
middle. It's called the aft cap uh for the 120. The rest of it is literally
the 120. The rest of it is literally hardened cardboard that burns up in the
hardened cardboard that burns up in the tube. The downside of that is if you're
tube. The downside of that is if you're slinging rounds all day, your round can
slinging rounds all day, your round can expand in the chamber and you can't
expand in the chamber and you can't extract that round for any such reason.
extract that round for any such reason. Most of the time they tell you just kick
Most of the time they tell you just kick it into the brereech as hard as you
it into the brereech as hard as you possibly can and shoot it anyways. But I
possibly can and shoot it anyways. But I assume that something with heat was
assume that something with heat was probably along the same rout like area.
probably along the same rout like area. I don't know if they could figure out a
I don't know if they could figure out a way to make the plastic absorb some of
way to make the plastic absorb some of that heat though and just have the
that heat though and just have the lighter ammunition like even just from
lighter ammunition like even just from like the war manufacturing aspect of
like the war manufacturing aspect of like in being able to injection mold a
like in being able to injection mold a bajillion cases for ammo. I would say
bajillion cases for ammo. I would say that like if you like for plastic
that like if you like for plastic especially if you get a hot gun probably
especially if you get a hot gun probably really increase their rate of runaway
really increase their rate of runaway gun. I I I would shoot in the dark and
gun. I I I would shoot in the dark and say that might have had something to do
say that might have had something to do with I don't know what the issue was or
with I don't know what the issue was or if there was. If I if I had to take a
if there was. If I if I had to take a shot in the dark, I would say at the
shot in the dark, I would say at the very least like you're the military,
very least like you're the military, you're switching weapons, you're going
you're switching weapons, you're going to want to go with the least amount of
to want to go with the least amount of uncertainty and switching to a polymer
uncertainty and switching to a polymer case would be very very different. Like
case would be very very different. Like that's Are we still doing the 68 fury
that's Are we still doing the 68 fury thing? Because I hate that round. That's
thing? Because I hate that round. That's what they're doing. So they're so
what they're doing. So they're so they're not just a it is like you look
they're not just a it is like you look at the uh def what do you call it like
at the uh def what do you call it like the documents coming out of the the US
the documents coming out of the the US military has to release certain like
military has to release certain like budget documents and we know that 2025
budget documents and we know that 2025 they're spending a boatload of money on
they're spending a boatload of money on the on the switch. I hate that
the on the switch. I hate that ammunition.
ammunition. The thing that's weird to me is it's
The thing that's weird to me is it's recoil. It's so it's it's a really
recoil. It's so it's it's a really overpressured round. And if you look at
overpressured round. And if you look at the actual so like they make 68 fury
the actual so like they make 68 fury that can fire in this gun that's like
that can fire in this gun that's like normal, but the whole point of it was to
normal, but the whole point of it was to be able to penetrate uh body armor for
be able to penetrate uh body armor for nearer. And to get the effect they want
nearer. And to get the effect they want against body armor, they have to have
against body armor, they have to have the the real ammunition that's like not
the the real ammunition that's like not for like training and shooting and
for like training and shooting and targets and [ __ ] And the real
targets and [ __ ] And the real ammunition, it's like brass and then
ammunition, it's like brass and then there's like a steel base and then
there's like a steel base and then there's the um the primer and they had
there's the um the primer and they had to have that steel base because this
to have that steel base because this round is so overressured that it would
round is so overressured that it would [ __ ] up the primer and it would up the
[ __ ] up the primer and it would up the ejection and everything. So it's like
ejection and everything. So it's like brass steel primer round and the round
brass steel primer round and the round is like super overressured and then for
is like super overressured and then for the you know like green tip has a steel
the you know like green tip has a steel pin in it to be able to punch. It's a
pin in it to be able to punch. It's a tungsten pin and that's what's punching
tungsten pin and that's what's punching through the armor. But the problem is
through the armor. But the problem is from like the war logistics side, like
from like the war logistics side, like if World War II breaks out and we got to
if World War II breaks out and we got to produce a bajillion rounds of
produce a bajillion rounds of ammunition,
ammunition, guess where we get tungsten from?
guess where we get tungsten from? Russia. China. Oh, fair enough. Who's
Russia. China. Oh, fair enough. Who's allied with Russian? It's just like
allied with Russian? It's just like you're building the whole battle plan
you're building the whole battle plan off being able to get this rare metal
off being able to get this rare metal that we can only get from the people
that we can only get from the people that we would most likely be fighting in
that we would most likely be fighting in a nearper engagement. It just seems
a nearper engagement. It just seems [ __ ] insane to me. And then also, you
[ __ ] insane to me. And then also, you look at the Russian forces going into
look at the Russian forces going into the fight and you're like, they're they
the fight and you're like, they're they don't all have body armor all the time.
don't all have body armor all the time. And how much of a how much of a factor
And how much of a how much of a factor is their body armor? In the words of Ron
is their body armor? In the words of Ron White. Does he have body armor on his
White. Does he have body armor on his head? Yeah. Shoot him in the dude. No.
head? Yeah. Shoot him in the dude. No. Well, well, so now dude, shout out to
Well, well, so now dude, shout out to Kevin Q. The 86 subsonic AP rounds are
Kevin Q. The 86 subsonic AP rounds are now a thing. Oops. Subsonic AP round.
now a thing. Oops. Subsonic AP round. Subic. This goes this this punches
Subic. This goes this this punches through level four armor like it's
through level four armor like it's [ __ ] nothing. Subsonic. So you do not
[ __ ] nothing. Subsonic. So you do not hear it. So their argument if I were to
hear it. So their argument if I were to make if I were steel man their case.
make if I were steel man their case. Okay. So their argument is that you've
Okay. So their argument is that you've seen the fire control system on it that
seen the fire control system on it that uh computer. Sure. Like let's let's say
uh computer. Sure. Like let's let's say best case
best case scenario basically they're arguing like
scenario basically they're arguing like okay we've got these drones that will
okay we've got these drones that will send up and we will spot the enemy at
send up and we will spot the enemy at 600 m and we're going to engage them
600 m and we're going to engage them before they can engage us. And the idea
before they can engage us. And the idea that they're arguing is like with that
that they're arguing is like with that fire control system, someone like me
fire control system, someone like me who's I'm not a great shot, you I'll be
who's I'm not a great shot, you I'll be able to hit someone 7 800 m away whereas
able to hit someone 7 800 m away whereas I couldn't before. And that's like the
I couldn't before. And that's like the whole doctrine behind it, right? Is that
whole doctrine behind it, right? Is that like we're not doing the room clearing
like we're not doing the room clearing anymore. We're hitting them out further.
anymore. We're hitting them out further. I hate that. What do you hate about it?
I hate that. What do you hate about it? I just I hate that. Like why don't we
I just I hate that. Like why don't we just bring back like an actual squad
just bring back like an actual squad fighting element? Like the loadout is
fighting element? Like the loadout is insane. It's like we got one dude with a
insane. It's like we got one dude with a machine gun, one dude that helps a guy
machine gun, one dude that helps a guy carry the ship for the machine gun with
carry the ship for the machine gun with an M4. We've got a guy with an M4 and a
an M4. We've got a guy with an M4 and a grenade launcher. We've got three more
grenade launcher. We've got three more guys with M4s, and one of them's a
guys with M4s, and one of them's a medic. Like why don't you just have
medic. Like why don't you just have machine gun guys, grenade guy,
machine gun guys, grenade guy, designated marksman with an actual gun
designated marksman with an actual gun and he's talented and can reach out to
and he's talented and can reach out to that distance in those situations
that distance in those situations instead of trying to like cookie cutter
instead of trying to like cookie cutter to make every motherucker super soldier
to make every motherucker super soldier that's capable of engaging 700 [ __ ]
that's capable of engaging 700 [ __ ] yards away. That's the that is the very
yards away. That's the that is the very good counter. So, would you agree that
good counter. So, would you agree that that that um that M249 replacement is
that that um that M249 replacement is pretty dope, though? Yeah. The Yeah, I
pretty dope, though? Yeah. The Yeah, I think I think everyone can kind of
think I think everyone can kind of agree. It doesn't take much to outdo the
agree. It doesn't take much to outdo the 249. Like, we should have been rocking
249. Like, we should have been rocking the Stoner 63 for the past 40 years. I
the Stoner 63 for the past 40 years. I don't know what we're doing with the
don't know what we're doing with the saw, but Absolutely. Yeah. Like, I think
saw, but Absolutely. Yeah. Like, I think that so that's the weird thing about
that so that's the weird thing about military procurement was that it was
military procurement was that it was part and partial in that if we're going
part and partial in that if we're going to replace the M. So, what I think will
to replace the M. So, what I think will actually end up happening is that
actually end up happening is that exactly what you were saying, which is
exactly what you were saying, which is like they'll give the XM7
like they'll give the XM7 to squad designated marksmen and then
to squad designated marksmen and then the M4 will still be around a bunch and
the M4 will still be around a bunch and then you'll see the M249 CLA to buy.
then you'll see the M249 CLA to buy. Maybe even the M240 gets replaced. Well,
Maybe even the M240 gets replaced. Well, no, 240 got replaced by the uh 338
no, 240 got replaced by the uh 338 Norma, which if you want a terrifying
Norma, which if you want a terrifying machine gun, the 338 basically can
machine gun, the 338 basically can replace the 50 in some instances. You
replace the 50 in some instances. You can walk and shoot it with no recoil.
can walk and shoot it with no recoil. So, I got to test fire that. I got to
So, I got to test fire that. I got to test fire that. And shooting it, it
test fire that. And shooting it, it feels like shooting the 240. The recoil
feels like shooting the 240. The recoil mitigation is a It's
mitigation is a It's It feels like you're being uh gas lit by
It feels like you're being uh gas lit by the recoil. You're like, "Did I just
the recoil. You're like, "Did I just shoot you? Did I? I guess I did." It's
like that's 86 Blackout. That is subsonic.
subsonic. You can we can that's a CH of a do 400
You can we can that's a CH of a do 400 grain bullet subsonic will do AP rounds
grain bullet subsonic will do AP rounds too. So that will the AP subsonic round
too. So that will the AP subsonic round went through four plates of AR500
went through four plates of AR500 and more ter more [ __ ]
and more ter more [ __ ] terrifying you can m I I have mag dumped
terrifying you can m I I have mag dumped 25 rounds at 50 yards all hit steel
25 rounds at 50 yards all hit steel plate full auto burn there's zero recoil
plate full auto burn there's zero recoil you know I'm glad Q is like on America's
you know I'm glad Q is like on America's side I really am somebody says just the
side I really am somebody says just the tip with this dude
tip with this dude oh dude and What they do
oh dude and What they do is we're talking guns. I'm not very good
is we're talking guns. I'm not very good at guns. I'm a missile guy. This round
at guns. I'm a missile guy. This round just [ __ ] sh up. I like it. It's just a
just [ __ ] sh up. I like it. It's just a missile at the front. That is absolutely
missile at the front. That is absolutely terrifying.
terrifying. [ __ ] death flower. Yeah.
[ __ ] death flower. Yeah. And then when you watch it so no, even
And then when you watch it so no, even more terrifying is like it is it was my
more terrifying is like it is it was my bedside. Now I have a 300 and that is my
bedside. Now I have a 300 and that is my bedside because Nick was like Nick did
bedside because Nick was like Nick did the test of what it goes through
the test of what it goes through subsonic everything everything it goes
subsonic everything everything it goes through everything for hunting or
through everything for hunting or anything subsonic for the longest time
anything subsonic for the longest time you would never hunt with subsonic cuz
you would never hunt with subsonic cuz inhumane cuz it's traveling under this
inhumane cuz it's traveling under this bar like the sound barrier it's not
bar like the sound barrier it's not going it's not going to kill it can maim
going it's not going to kill it can maim or injure instead of kill that thing
or injure instead of kill that thing though Nick was like well we're going to
though Nick was like well we're going to do a video Nick what what stopped it
do a video Nick what what stopped it uh Uh, four, fiveB gummy bears and a
uh Uh, four, fiveB gummy bears and a slab of ballistics gel, which sounds
slab of ballistics gel, which sounds stupid. Gummy bears are OP. You're not
stupid. Gummy bears are OP. You're not going to believe me. I have all the
going to believe me. I have all the videos up on Pepper
videos up on Pepper Box. Guess how Do you know this? No. You
Box. Guess how Do you know this? No. You know what the Okay, guess how many 5B
know what the Okay, guess how many 5B gummy bears it takes to stop a 12 gauge
gummy bears it takes to stop a 12 gauge at point blank. 5B. 5 lb. Like big big 5
at point blank. 5B. 5 lb. Like big big 5 lb. I think Cappy Cappy can do this. One
lb. I think Cappy Cappy can do this. One and slug or are we talking bird shot
and slug or are we talking bird shot point blank? I mean that's still I'd
point blank? I mean that's still I'd spec it catches the wad and everything.
spec it catches the wad and everything. [ __ ] 9 mil FMJ. Guess point blank. Uh,
[ __ ] 9 mil FMJ. Guess point blank. Uh, sorry. Two.
sorry. Two. 5.56 FMJ. 5.56 has got to be at least
5.56 FMJ. 5.56 has got to be at least three. No [ __ ] Gummy bears. 5B gummy
three. No [ __ ] Gummy bears. 5B gummy bears. We've been testing the ballistics
bears. We've been testing the ballistics of 5B gummy bears and they are
of 5B gummy bears and they are bulletproof. Uh, one 5B gummy bear stops
bulletproof. Uh, one 5B gummy bear stops a 12 gauge at point blank. One stops a 9
a 12 gauge at point blank. One stops a 9 mil FMJ full point blank. Uh, so I can
mil FMJ full point blank. Uh, so I can stop wearing body armor gummy bears on.
stop wearing body armor gummy bears on. Yeah, it's edible body armor. It's
Yeah, it's edible body armor. It's delicious. So, to give you that idea,
delicious. So, to give you that idea, that's how like resistant. Um, the other
that's how like resistant. Um, the other one we did was we did uh four gummy
one we did was we did uh four gummy bears with a 3 ft of ballistics gel
bears with a 3 ft of ballistics gel behind it.
behind it. 308 point blank full metal jacket. We
308 point blank full metal jacket. We caught it in the ballistics gel after it
caught it in the ballistics gel after it went through four gummy bears. And
went through four gummy bears. And that's what it took to catch 86, which
that's what it took to catch 86, which this is what the 86 does when it hits a
this is what the 86 does when it hits a gummy bear.
gummy bear. Uh, anything apparently. So, and the
Uh, anything apparently. So, and the other thing is 86, the twist rate on the
other thing is 86, the twist rate on the barrel is 1 to three instead of like 1
barrel is 1 to three instead of like 1 to 8 or 1 to 10. So, it's spinning like
to 8 or 1 to 10. So, it's spinning like crazy. So, you're literally just hucking
crazy. So, you're literally just hucking blenders at people.
blenders at people. It is uh the phys the physics of it. We
It is uh the phys the physics of it. We were trying to catch this And before we
were trying to catch this And before we switched over to gummy bears, we took a
switched over to gummy bears, we took a a support beam from a barn, 4-in thick
a support beam from a barn, 4-in thick hardwood support
hardwood support beam. I thought I missed cuz I thought
beam. I thought I missed cuz I thought my I was so close. I thought my ACOG was
my I was so close. I thought my ACOG was off and I thought I cuz I hit steel
off and I thought I cuz I hit steel behind it cuz we had steel targets up
behind it cuz we had steel targets up behind like 40 yards back. I thought I
behind like 40 yards back. I thought I shot over and hit one of the steel
shot over and hit one of the steel targets. Went dead center. Went through
targets. Went dead center. Went through the beam through three blocks of
the beam through three blocks of ballistics gel. 40 yards downrange, hit
ballistics gel. 40 yards downrange, hit the steel target. It sound like a
the steel target. It sound like a [ __ ] car wreck. The only reason I
[ __ ] car wreck. The only reason I actually change it's still on my
actually change it's still on my bedside. But I have now like 300 back at
bedside. But I have now like 300 back at my bedside because I was like, "Huh,
my bedside because I was like, "Huh, maybe not the bedside because it's just
maybe not the bedside because it's just going to go through my neighbors." Yeah.
going to go through my neighbors." Yeah. I was like, "Holy [ __ ] that's just
I was like, "Holy [ __ ] that's just going to keep going." You and your
going to keep going." You and your cover. Yeah. I was like, "What the [ __ ]
cover. Yeah. I was like, "What the [ __ ] dude? That is nuts. It is wild." Well,
dude? That is nuts. It is wild." Well, um, Mrs. Pine crosser. I'm buying one of
um, Mrs. Pine crosser. I'm buying one of those. I I love my 4570. I love it. I
those. I I love my 4570. I love it. I I'm a lever gun guy. Like, do you know
I'm a lever gun guy. Like, do you know Henry put out like a magazine fed 5.56
Henry put out like a magazine fed 5.56 lever action? It's stupid. I don't know.
lever action? It's stupid. I don't know. There's no reason to own one, but I want
There's no reason to own one, but I want one. I like lever guns. This is This has
one. I like lever guns. This is This has been a really good episode. Once Nick
been a really good episode. Once Nick gets back, we'll go to the uh after
gets back, we'll go to the uh after show. We'll do like a 10-minute after
show. We'll do like a 10-minute after show. We missed like three. I got to do
show. We missed like three. I got to do the I got to do the story. Well, can we
the I got to do the story. Well, can we save it for the after show if you want
save it for the after show if you want to? Yeah, I would love that. Okay.
to? Yeah, I would love that. Okay. Because we're at Dude, this one went two
Because we're at Dude, this one went two hours and 20 minutes. I was surprised. I
hours and 20 minutes. I was surprised. I looked down. No, no. Chris, like you had
looked down. No, no. Chris, like you had us all captivated, bro. Like, dude, you
us all captivated, bro. Like, dude, you like hooked. I I looked I was like, "Oh,
like hooked. I I looked I was like, "Oh, that's great." That is
that's great." That is like That's the thing. I wasn't like
like That's the thing. I wasn't like just trying to butt in to try and like
just trying to butt in to try and like spice things up. I feel bad about that
spice things up. I feel bad about that story. I feel like I'm just like I'm
story. I feel like I'm just like I'm just going on and on. No, dude. I was
just going on and on. No, dude. I was like, "Please do not stop." That is the
like, "Please do not stop." That is the [ __ ] where you're just cap. It is
[ __ ] where you're just cap. It is captivating and it's so relatable like
captivating and it's so relatable like from my perspective and then you see
from my perspective and then you see everyone else perspective. It's just
everyone else perspective. It's just it's a different type of warfare that
it's a different type of warfare that I've never experienced. Like it I mean
I've never experienced. Like it I mean hell you've never experienced. I'll tell
hell you've never experienced. I'll tell you guys sometime about the drone
you guys sometime about the drone mission too which is the one that was
mission too which is the one that was actually I was way more scared on that
actually I was way more scared on that one. I'll tell you some if you guys want
one. I'll tell you some if you guys want to hear about it sometime. That's like
to hear about it sometime. That's like the the made me a brief on the after
the the made me a brief on the after show. We'll see how
show. We'll see how long it is. Drone warfare is the most
long it is. Drone warfare is the most terrifying [ __ ] thing. I'm so glad we
terrifying [ __ ] thing. I'm so glad we didn't have to deal with that in GWA.
didn't have to deal with that in GWA. I'm so to answer your question, I don't
I'm so to answer your question, I don't think this is like a paradigm shift on
think this is like a paradigm shift on par with like gunpowder or the tank. The
par with like gunpowder or the tank. The drones. Yeah. Why do you say that?
drones. Yeah. Why do you say that? So like my brain like goes to like
So like my brain like goes to like jiu-jitsu. So like every just shut up.
Who asked you? Listen, fall back. If you lay on
you? Listen, fall back. If you lay on your back 12 gauge, shoot up. No, I I I
your back 12 gauge, shoot up. No, I I I tend to I feel like I agree with you
tend to I feel like I agree with you that night won't necessarily in the end
that night won't necessarily in the end when it comes to America be that way.
when it comes to America be that way. Yeah. I mean, like in MMA or whatever,
Yeah. I mean, like in MMA or whatever, there's there's always like some hot new
there's there's always like some hot new technique that becomes meta for a short
technique that becomes meta for a short period of time and nobody can figure it
period of time and nobody can figure it out and then the second somebody figures
out and then the second somebody figures out the counter and everybody learns
out the counter and everybody learns that counter, it's just it's always
that counter, it's just it's always because it's one move. It's the same
because it's one move. It's the same play. It's not like a dynamic thing.
play. It's not like a dynamic thing. It's once you figure out how to counter
It's once you figure out how to counter it, it's just countered and you move on.
it, it's just countered and you move on. So like once I It's either going to be
So like once I It's either going to be like jamming technology or like
like jamming technology or like miniature sea whiz or whatever. It's
miniature sea whiz or whatever. It's going to get to the point where it's
going to get to the point where it's just like this isn't
just like this isn't a worldshifting event. It's literally
a worldshifting event. It's literally like once we know the counter, it's just
like once we know the counter, it's just another box we have to check to make
another box we have to check to make sure that's not going to happen. So it's
sure that's not going to happen. So it's funny you say that cuz it's exactly how
funny you say that cuz it's exactly how I feel about it. I feel like what we're
I feel about it. I feel like what we're witnessing it's it's always the the
witnessing it's it's always the the sword versus the shield, right? And when
sword versus the shield, right? And when there's a new sword, whatever that is,
there's a new sword, whatever that is, like that has the uh advantage for
like that has the uh advantage for whatever time it is. But then what
whatever time it is. But then what you're talking about like once the
you're talking about like once the shield catches up, it's there. And I I
shield catches up, it's there. And I I would argue the same thing you're saying
would argue the same thing you're saying is that like when so for instance, if
is that like when so for instance, if America was in this fight, I think it'd
America was in this fight, I think it'd be very very different. Like I don't
be very very different. Like I don't think we're giving Ukraine the EW uh
think we're giving Ukraine the EW uh tech that we have because if it falls
tech that we have because if it falls into Russian hands like no good. Warox.
into Russian hands like no good. Warox. I agree that like we our counter UAS and
I agree that like we our counter UAS and like uh what do you call it? Um you know
like uh what do you call it? Um you know counter uh close air support be would
counter uh close air support be would perform very differently than Ukraine's
perform very differently than Ukraine's just because of the sheer number of
just because of the sheer number of assets. What we're seeing right now
assets. What we're seeing right now everyone's like oh it's like all about
everyone's like oh it's like all about the FPV. No, I think if America was in
the FPV. No, I think if America was in this fight, it would not be a trench
this fight, it would not be a trench warfare. Trench warfare happens when
warfare. Trench warfare happens when there's like a stalemate. So, I to I
there's like a stalemate. So, I to I agree with you. Yeah, I think you know,
agree with you. Yeah, I think you know, is it a paradigm shift for this fight
is it a paradigm shift for this fight and these two adversaries? Like, okay,
and these two adversaries? Like, okay, maybe. But, yeah,
maybe. But, yeah, like we'd have to see what is it really
like we'd have to see what is it really in a um yeah, like how how would
in a um yeah, like how how would America's systems perform against this
America's systems perform against this because first of all, Ukraine doesn't
because first of all, Ukraine doesn't have air power like that. So would it
have air power like that. So would it would it even devolve to like close
would it even devolve to like close range FPV strikes? We don't we don't
range FPV strikes? We don't we don't know, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. God, I
know, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. God, I Nick, close this out. We'll go to the
Nick, close this out. We'll go to the after show and finish this off because I
