Speaker: If I had to be completely honest with myself, I'm tired.
Speaker: I'm tired. It's not a physical tired. It's a very, you know, it's in the soul. It's like I'm fucking tired. I'm tired of going through this shit. I'm tired of... tired of everything not working out. And I'm just like, I fucking tried. And it's a... I can't not lie and say, it's not a, it's not like you don't want to live kind of thing. It's more of a, if God were sitting across from me right now.
Speaker: there would be a part of me that would just want to go up to him and say, listen, I'm done. I'm done. I'm not. I can't do this anymore. I'm just, I'm fucking physically and mentally spent and I'm done. And it's a, it's a silent battle too. Um, and it's a, it's a battle kind of hide from the world and from the people we love and the people we want to love or want to love us because
Speaker: Who wants a broken person? You know, it's like, if they knew, like if the people in your life knew how broken we were, like, would they stay? And then that raises the question of like, how do I fix this? Can you fix this? I don't know.
Speaker: I can't hide myself I don't expect you to understand I just hope I can't explain What it's like to be a man It's a lonely room And they don't care about what you know It's not about how you feel But what you provide inside that home
Speaker: You can't always move up to expectations you try to Please everybody while you struggle so you fake it And end up out of balance compromising situations as a good man
Speaker: He hasn't do everything he could, man You might find yourself feeling all alone Inside a house you built that you don't recognize as home And that's what my daddy told me And I'll tell my son the same Now that I'm older, I relate And I actually feel his pain He never cried, he might've lied But he did not complain And he said, son, one day you'll have to do the same I'll get emotional when I stop and think and I look around
Speaker: Beyond the county lines of my small town I think about all the men out there who feel like I do now Who are screaming on the inside but won't ever make a sound
Speaker: Keep fighting, as a man our sun is all horizon And our fathers actions play a role and we end up like them So they can't let us see them hurt Cause we'll embody what they do and start a generational curse No wonder most men are so depressed All the things that they can't express They go to war, get thrown on the shelf and go back
Speaker: Back to war with they mental health Then grab that bottle and ask for help Try to pull themselves out of hell Then fall back down and then realize That they gon' have to do it themselves It's the circle of life as a man you provide They don't know what you worth Till today that you're dying That's when they start crying Then move on to a man you confided
Speaker: What is going on everybody? Happy Monday!

Speaker: Nice. I think Connor's doing that tonight. As you guys see, we are down a person. Connor's not here tonight. He's feeling a little under the weather. He's got a little belly ache. Yeah, wasn't doing so hot. I talked to him a little bit earlier. Hopefully he's feeling better now. Fuck you, Mark. What's up, Angie? What's going on?
Speaker: Um, what's going on? Chatters bucks. Yeah. Hopefully Connor's feeling better. Maybe he'll be, he'll be ready to go Wednesday night for some more nonsensical nonsense. Yeah. No, we didn't do that. We didn't do a whole lot. We, uh, we just kind of hung out here at the house. Um, I think he made dinner. It was her first holiday dinner she's ever made.
Speaker: I don't know how anyone can hear my **** TV maybe. Benji, turn down your **** volume. He's pulling it. He's pulling a Tony D tonight. He's he's going to be. Oh, I got your Tony D **** dangling. He's going to be sidetracked. But no, Nikki, Nikki cooked her first ever holiday holiday dinner. She's usually
Speaker: She's at her parents house for the holidays and stuff like that. So yeah, we just kind of hung out around the house. Uh, it was kind of a lazy day. Uh, obviously the Easter bunny came and dropped off of Easter baskets and hit eggs for the, for the kids. Um, you know, my girls are getting up there and age, but as I've said about us, like, as far as like Christmas and stuff goes, uh, they still play along for the sake of their little brother. So I, you know, I do, and I do enjoy that. And I appreciate that from them.
Speaker: Uh, cause they could be absolute pain in the asses and just ruin the holiday for him because, you know, he's still, he still has that, that, that child innocence about him. I agree looking to get a nonsense. Hold on. Sure. Um,
Speaker: So, you know, and then just kind of hung out Easter bunny was nice enough to bring cash more wrestlers because that's what he needs. Uh, we, we're working our way up to 30 so he can have his own Royal rumble. I think he's at like 20 something right now, but he got some old school wrestlers. He got a triple H and a stone cold Steve Austin with the old heavyweight championship belt, not the smoking skull belt, but the old, the old winged belt. He was pretty stoked about that. So, uh,
Speaker: But yeah, you know, and that's just kind of low key. I think, uh, yeah, I think last night I wound up getting online and hanging out with, uh, with you guys and playing call of duty. Um, after everybody started kind of wandering off and doing their own thing yesterday, Mickey was.
Speaker: preparing for her first day of work. She started a new job today and that went well. So congratulations to her. I was pretty excited for her. She seemed pretty excited for it. And then she got home today and she said, everything went good. Everything went well. She seems to, she likes the people she works with. So I'm excited for her, but she kind of called it an early night. Now I'm on my last day of vacation.
Speaker: Uh, I gotta go back to fucking reality tomorrow. Go back to work. Uh, you know, I'm almost, I'm kind of starting a new job tomorrow. Not really. Um, same, same, same building, same, same job as I was doing. Uh, the only difference is it's just a new company. So it's like.
Speaker: you know one company kind of cut me loose and the new company came in to take over the property and they said hey big fella we'd like for you to stay if that's okay and I was like well yeah I mean absolutely damn so they cut you loose from one zoo to go to a new zoo pretty much the Sasquatch exhibit at the at the first one wasn't going as well anymore yeah no it was just um
Speaker: like I said before it was just it was just all around a shitty situation by the company that I was with and they they they they fucked me they bit me over the couch and fucked me at the end of the day on no lube no no anal ease no nothing just no set just fucking anal poundage just just um so you know fortunately this new company I'm looking forward to uh you know
Speaker: Starting this new journey seeing where it goes seeing how the new company is. It's a younger company You know, it was it was it was a smooth transition my pay stays the same I bet I probably get better benefits cheaper benefits wind up with more vacation time So it was at the end of the day, yeah it It was kind of a kind of a shitty situation I was put in but you know
Speaker: It was worth the month and a half. I kind of sat in purgatory going. The fuck do I do? Like, what's going to happen? You know, where am I going to go? What am I going to do? I'm not going to, you know, I'm going to have a hard time finding a company that's going to pay me what I make now type of situation. But it all worked out. You know, I wasn't trying to be negative. I was still trying to have positive attitude and shit like that and not let that inside. I was absolutely losing my shit. But
Speaker: At the end of the day, it all worked out and I'm grateful for it and I'm excited for it to see where this goes. Like I said, younger company, different mindset on the way they treat their employees and stuff like that. So it could open more doors and better opportunities for me down the road at the end of the day. So back to reality tomorrow after a week off.
Speaker: I'm not used to taking a week off and not having anything at all to do and I really went to PA for a few days. Um, and then the rest of the time was just hanging out here at the house and I had stuff I wanted to do at the house and I just, I just couldn't bring myself to do it until today. I got up this morning and got my shit taken care of. I needed to take care of and then had, you know, a little bit of time before the show and that's what I did. I jumped on Call of Duty with Jarvis and our, and our, and our buddy Mark, we were only missing our,
Speaker: our fourth musketeer, Brian, but, you know, unlike some people, he had to go to work today. Work on his Ponzi scheme. But anyways, you know how I like to start to show out. Jarvis, how you doing, man? How was the week for you last week? How's everything going for you in your world, man? How are you feeling? I'm feeling, did my first thing.
Speaker: therapy with my new therapist today, that went pretty well. Finally bought Call of Duty, you know, so Brian could shut the fuck up about me not having the game. And then he only hopped in one day. So you know, that's fucking Brian. Well, Brian has a job. He has to go to work. Yeah. Okay. He's got a job. Okay. Oh, I got a job. Like I'll be doing radio shit, come home and be like Glick.
Speaker: I'm not doing anything around the house. That's basically what I do. I don't have anything to do. If we're not doing anything, it's like Call of Duty time. I'll be like Call of Duty, winky face, winky face, winky face. But no, just been, I don't know, just been dealing with a lot of mixed emotions with everything and just trying to find fucking, okay, we get it, Mark.
Speaker: go back to your talking shit. Or as Connor with the hard ER says. But no, just dealing with a lot of weird shit going on in my life, you know, how they'd have my career by now, but that still hasn't happened, but still looking, still holding out hope that it's gonna be, oh, I work, it's just content creating, podcasting, you know,
Speaker: And it's all in due time. That's, you know, I think, I think a lot of people, and I think even certain degree had that misconception of you were going to go to a broadcasting school or radio school or whatever, and you were going to graduate and then the next day you were going to, you know, have a job. I think a lot of people, uh, unfortunately they have that it's the same day with like truck drivers, you know, somebody will go to school to get their CDL and be like, Oh man, I'm going to come right out and I'm going to have the best paying job at the best company. And it's like, you have to remember.
Speaker: There's a lot of people that want to do that job and not a lot of positions. So you got to, you got to kind of wade through the waters and, you know, all in good time when it, I know it's just, I wish the government had that position on fucking student loan payback, but they don't, you know, and it's just like,
Speaker: it is what it is and you know my student loans weren't as bad as what I thought they were going to be where if I would have stayed at Ridgewater Community College I'd probably be owing like 30 grand just for two years and it like I told the list I was like you know at the end of the day I did what I set out to do which was get a degree in something I didn't have to go to a four -year university and get it you know so I mean
Speaker: It's still a big thing. Like I know there's a lot of people out there that are like, oh he went to Radio broadcasting or community college, whatever It's like, you know hate to say it to a lot of people but them four -year degrees that don't mean really shit anymore Well, you know the sad part about is that thing, you know, and I tell people and I've said it on here I tell people all the time and You get the opportunity, you know, depending upon what you want to go to college for it if you're really dead set on it
Speaker: You know, if you get the opportunity, go to a trade school, learn a trade, you know, you're not going to have, you know, thousands of thousands and thousands of dollars of student loans that you're, that you're, you're never going to pay back or never be able to pay back or whatever the case may be. And also, you know, you know how many people I know that went to college did four years, did eight years, did whatever. And, and, and now.
Speaker: They're not even doing what they, what they, what they got their degrees in. And there you go. I bet Jarvis will fit right into. Yeah, no, I I've done the jobs like that before. Fuck no. Hey Tina, how you doing? Hi Tina. Um, no, you know, it, it, it, it, it is crazy because there's friends of mine who went to college and I've made more money than them pretty much since day one of graduation. And I continue to make more money than them.
Speaker: you know, the thing at the end of the day is, is like, you know, they schools will push you so much into going to a four year. And at the same time, like I, my wife, she was the first college she went to was St. Kate's. It was an old woman's school. And you know, she went to go do a sonography. Well, she wasn't able to she wasn't able to
Speaker: get into her original job field and she regrets it. But like I said, you know, at the same time, you still went to school. You know, like, it's the biggest misconception that, and I've said this, Connors even said this, and you've said this, you know, everyone thinks they need to go to college or they need to do this, that, whatever. To me, when I went to radio broadcasting school, it was just to see if I could do it.
Speaker: It was never for that, oh, hey, I got this degree now and all that shit. It was just for, it was just, you know, to have that to say I did it. You know, when most people, including the school I went to said, oh, you'll never be able to do something like that. You'll be stuck in menial labor jobs, which I did that for many years. You know, a lot of kids nowadays coming out of high school, they won't even touch them jobs.
Speaker: And that's why our workforce, which in the future is going to be so fucked up that it's going to be probably non -existent. I have a, I have a buddy of mine who's almost 40 and his dad, I've been telling, you know, his dad has been telling him for years. I've been telling him and he just now, he just now decided to join the, uh, uh, I think he said electricians or pipefitters or something like that. He's in a place and whatnot.
Speaker: And I'm like, yeah, but dude, you're already almost 40, man. You know, like your precious years are behind you at the end of the day. You know, I said, he's like.
Speaker: You know, he was talking about this, that the other thing in retirement, I said, you do realize that those retirement benefits and when they start trying to kick you out the door is because those guys have already put their 20 plus 20 plus 30 years and whatever. I said, you're looking at sixties or seventies when you hit that mark at this point, blah, blah. I said, but I, you know, I'm glad he did it. And I hope it works out for him. Uh, but it's one of those things where.
Speaker: You know, she'll listen like 20 years ago, man. Well, that's the thing, you know, people just out of high school, they think the world's, you know, just going to fucking cater to them. And, you know, I learned that. I learned that hard. He was with the company that he just left for almost 20 years. So, you know, and plus he got it. He's got a pretty sweet gig where he's at. I'm happy for him. I'm excited for him. Uh, we were talking a little bit. Uh, he came over Saturday, I think it was.
Speaker: And I was talking to him and cause, you know, I've spent my entire, uh, basically my entire life in that, in that field, uh, construction, some, some form of construction. But like I told him, so I'm 42 now. I like my job. My job's not demanding. It's, it's, it's, it's not hard work. Um, I beat my body up enough. I put my time in, you know, I've earned, I've earned where I'm at and I make good money. So, you know, uh,
Speaker: Good luck to you because it's a brand new world and it's in the summers are going to kill you. The weather's going to be your boss. And you know, but I hope for the best for him. It's something that he's, he's, he, he wants to do. And, uh, you know, I'm excited for him and that's ultimately what you got to do, man. You got to, you, you got to find what you like to do. Well, and that's the thing, you know, that's what you're trying to do. You, you want to be in radio and that's what you're doing. Well, like I, you know,
Speaker: I've been asked many times, you know, well, why'd you go into radio broadcasting? And it's like, well, I do, I do three podcasts. Well, two, I guess this one, and then, um, my own. And it's like, I always loved doing it. You know, I mean, yeah, do I wish, you know, that most of these, uh, podcasting sites did a little bit more effort to promote.
Speaker: a little bit more, 100%. But at the exact same time, then everyone would be doing it. And you'd have shows that make no goddamn sense. It'd be like Seinfeld. Yeah. Well, God, I hated that show. I did too. I don't understand it. It's not that I don't understand the show. I don't understand the appeal to it. Yeah. It's still funny. I don't think Seinfeld's funny either.
Speaker: How would you get that I'm not willing to move to go get those jobs Benji I think it was just asking if you if you are yeah, there's a lot of places I mean I get I get blown up because my resume has Has podcast host in it and and I've gotten Emails and stuff like really downside for me If I could I would absolutely move
Speaker: Or if a company was willing to set me up with the equipment I needed to work from home or whatever, then I would go that route. Unfortunately, I can't travel because I have applied for a lot of radio jobs. And it's funny because a couple of companies that I talked to, one company that I talked to, they said, did you go to school? Blah, blah, blah. And I said, no.
Speaker: what experience do you have? And I've seen, you know, I host a couple podcasts. Uh, I've been doing that for about three years and they're like, so what makes you think you could run a morning show? I said, I'm a, I said to train chimpanzee can talk into a goddamn microphone. Yeah.
Speaker: I was like, what do you, what do you mean? I said, I like to talk. I like to bullshit. I'm well versed. I can talk about anything you want to talk about. Uh, you know, I know music, so I can talk up music, you know, whatever the case may be. You just give me a fucking producer that's going to run the board. And I said, and I'll learn how to run the board at the end of the day. Well, yeah, exactly. Yeah. I said, but, uh, no, I didn't go to school. I don't have a fucking master's degree and talk radio or sports radio or.
Speaker: anything like that. But I mean, any any chimp can read a piece of paper that you're going to give them this prepared form. It's not like they're flying off the cuff. I mean, hell, I'll fly off the cuff and I can give you a two hour sports show just off of my knowledge alone. Well, yeah, and like. Fuck, I wish I had that fancy title of a master's degree, but you know, at the end of the day, I've already told. Read it as a question, bro.
Speaker: So he was asking the question, are you not? Well, I know, I know. But at the same time, it's like, if you get into that job or career field, yeah, you have to be like, if you if you're going to think that you're going to get a job and radio on your own state, like, no, that's not fucking logical. Like, you know, it's kind of in that perfect situation, that perfect storm of
Speaker: If the opportunity was there for you to say like it, say like fucking some, some station in Arkansas hits you up. You guys don't have to worry about kids. It's just the two of you. So, you know, you're in that perfect situation where you could up and take off.
Speaker: for an opportunity. Oh, definitely. And like I, I even told Alyssa, I said, you know, the only way that we would stay in Minnesota is that if it was a sports team and I only knew I was going to be gone for the season, then she could stay here in Minnesota if she wanted to. And I would go to wherever and, but then at the same time, like we both said, you know,
Speaker: I love Minnesota. It's where I'm from. But at the same time, if there's a better opportunity out there, I'm going to take it. And it's not going to be forever. You know, wind up in Alaska. Hey, hey, hey, UFL, United Football League, if you need an answer, I mean, you're going to wind up in Alaska. And I'll end up like the fucking, it'll end up like the thing, but for radio broadcast.
Speaker: No. Yeah. You just, and at the end of the day, you know, I know, I know, I know your goal. I know what you want, but you know, there's a pyramid or a totem pole. So to say, you're going to climb, you're going to climb the steps where you're going to, where you want to be at and where you're going to be at at the end of the day. But, you know, you're not going to get like,
Speaker: you know, ESPN is going to call you tomorrow and go, Hey, well, that's the thing. Like everyone thought once I got that market type deal, like everyone thought once I got my degree, they're like, Oh, you're so you think you're going to be on ESPN right away. I'm like, fuck no. It's just, yeah, fuck you, Mark.
Speaker: Florida wish they could afford me. At the end of the day, I know I do say that a lot, don't I? What's going on, Leggy? Evening, Leggy. But no, I know. Every job I've had, and that's the thing, most people, they don't want to start at the bottom all the time. They want to get the good money right away. And like me, every job I've been to, I was never afraid to start at the bottom. Jeff!
Speaker: What up, Jeffrey? But, you know, it is what it is. And, you know, I don't, I don't overthink any of that shit. Like I didn't think I was going to get a job within the first couple of weeks or first couple of months. It's just, like I said, you know, I have plans that I want to do and, you know, kind of sucks when, you know, those plans involve, you know, the almighty money.
Speaker: There are online radio stations out there. Um, I've looked at a couple, um, it just depends on what they're looking for and what they want. Yeah. And I'm not, I'm not going to be a political analyst. There's been a few that want me for that. And I, at the end of the day, it's nothing I fucking care about. Look at, look at the news media. Any, any, any jerk off can talk politics, talk politics and can't even remember the quotes or remember
Speaker: who said what they're, what they're quoting. So, you know, you don't even have to be right. When you talk politics, would that be, would that person be the name of don't need eat? No, I'm just saying in general, I mean, I've watched, Oh yeah, it's bad. I mean, it really is. Yeah. I've watched people on, on, on CNN or Fox or whatever, just completely function all of, as I said, I mean, you don't have to be knowledgeable in this situation to talk about politics. I mean, Jackass is do it all the time.
Speaker: Oh, definitely Jeff. Like I said, you know, I, I would never want to be someone that's a political analyst. No, not even for the right price. I, and that's the thing, you know, people always think it's about this, but for me, it's something I always wanted to do. And yeah, one day I will make good enough money. But at the same time, like, no.
Speaker: I mean, at the end of the day, if the money's right, I got I got to agree with Benji down there. You know, you know, Benji said, I'll talk a lot of things. I'll talk a lot of things. I don't like for the right money talks and bullshit walks. If it gets my foot in the door and I got to fucking talk about goddamn local craft bazaar or whatever. And hey, you know, if I got to talk politics, I can bullshit my way through politics.
Speaker: you know, you know, like I said, you know, for me, I politics are low hanging fruit, in my opinion, if you're, if you're, if you're a streamer, let's, let's call, you know, let's, if you're a streamer, um, uh, politics are low hanging fruit. It's, it's something that, and you know, that that's going to get attention negatively or positively. You're going to split your audience right down the middle. Um,
Speaker: And it's, you know, it's an easy way to try to get views. And at the same time, like I said, you don't have to know what the fuck you're talking about either. And people are still are going to listen to what the fuck you're saying just because they want to argue about it. You know, I don't personally care for politics because at the end of the day, yeah, I know, I know, I know what's going on and I know enough and whatnot.
Speaker: But I'm not going to have a discussion or argue with somebody about politics, because at the end of the day, these politicians, it don't matter who's in office. My life hasn't changed a single bit in any way, shape or form. Society today that.
Speaker: We have an easiest straight white man. I don't know. Life hasn't been necessarily easy, but you know, it doesn't matter who's in office or who's in charge. My life doesn't fucking change. So I'm not going to waste my time and get all pissy and aggravated and annoyed and, and, and, and, and yell and scream and argue with people over something that doesn't change my life. Well, exactly. And that's, that's why at the end of the day, if I got a job doing well,
Speaker: I've wiped too, but you know, at the same time. Yeah, no, exactly. That's why I said, you know, Jarvis, you're, you're kind of in that perfect situation. You're still young enough. You're still starting out kind of young and whatnot. And I'm assuming you're, you're renting. Correct. Oh yeah. I mean, at the same time, like my parents, they had bills, they had all that shit. And a lot of time they had to relocate, even if they didn't want it.
Speaker: But like I said, you know, I had to be the fucking weather man. I'll be the weather man. I don't care. No, I don't want to try and understand politics. I feel like that'd be like trying to be like half those people are like, Hey, is this gun loaded? Could have helped you. But no, it's just, it's that thing that no matter if you have the perfect job,
Speaker: One day you're going to have to fucking relocate. And I mean, even if I add kids, how well still have bills, you're never going to escape bills. I wish, but no, exactly. I wish I could get that politician tax benefit that they get where they can just go like, Hey, we see people are making more money at their careers and their jobs. We need some more of that need to pay for my 50th Ferrari.
Speaker: Go to hell, Jeff. No, exactly. I mean, you know, some things, you know, you're not going to be able to escape bills or anything like that. But, you know, like I said, you guys are in a fortunate situation. If the opportunity arises for you, you know, you don't own a house, you don't have to sell or anything like that. You don't have to worry about packing up your kids and moving your kids to a different state or city or whatever. And
Speaker: You know, Alyssa's fortunate, the company that she works for, you know, more than likely she could transfer and stay with that company in a different location because let's be honest, they're everywhere. I mean, I'm sure that, I think these things, these stores are, are, are owned and ran by aliens because they just drop them in the middle of a field somewhere, uh, in the middle of nowhere. One day you drive by and there's not, and there's not a store there. And then the next day it's like, Oh, where the hell did that come from?
Speaker: If you build it, Alyssa will manage it. But no, I agree with you, Benji. Moving for a job that's going to be something you want to do is totally an adventure. And the other thing you have to be prepared for with being in radio, your job's never guaranteed, man. No, exactly. That's the only downfall. Jobs are guaranteed.
Speaker: Yeah. I mean, that's all a downfall. I mean, you could be killing it and having, you think you're killing it and having a great show. And then all of a sudden they're like, Hey, we're going to do a format change. And then you're like, well, well, what do I do now? I had a few podcasts on LinkedIn reach out to me and it's just like, some of them were nice, but at the same time, it's just like,
Speaker: One was a political affiliation station, which, like I say, I know fuck all about that. There's 100%. There's a lot of radio jams. Yeah. Oh, definitely. Not all of them. Isn't that what I do already, Mark? Not all of them are going to be on the mic.
Speaker: Um, now for me, I, you know, I would love to be in an actual radio station and an actual, uh, on an actual, uh, program and still be able to do this or whatever. But, um, I also, uh, all I know how to do is talk on a microphone. So, you know, it'd be like, Oh, you know, I could.
Speaker: I could do engineering. I could do this. I mean, I could learn. But well, that's the thing. They'll they'll teach you shit. I mean, it's not just like, oh, you have your degree only in this, you know, and I learned how to edit my own audio. And I mean, most of it have been doing it on a podcast. So it's just like. Oh, it is a men's mental health show, Rip Dog. It's just we are talking about our mental health.
Speaker: I have heard of Hal. Nah, it is. He just like, what's he do? He does like, um, um, like traffic and weather reports or something. He works from home for a radio. I don't know if he does his own show or not. I know he does. I know he does a lot of streaming online. Um, I don't know what he, I don't know what he does for the radio station. So I've seen him a couple of times.
Speaker: Well, that's like a lot of the radio stations I listen to here in Minnesota or Southern Canada as Connor with the hard ER, he always calls it. It is. A lot of them are doing podcasting now. It is a men's mental health show and we are talking about men's mental health because our career
Speaker: our careers and our journey in our careers as we sometimes take different roads and routes as part of our mental health and sometimes talking about it and letting other people drop their opinions and ask questions and stuff like that. It's all part of the journey. It's all part of the journey, man.
Speaker: It's all part of getting to where we want to get to at the end of the day. Okay. That's what I thought it was weather and traffic. Um, and, and, you know, and, and I know people that that's where they started out at. They just did weather and traffic reports, you know, weather and traffic on the nines or whatever. Uh, and now they're on there. Now they're full fledged members of shows, um, mid -day talk shows, um, you know, radio station. I listened to, uh, a lot of the people that, that are on shows and stuff like that started out in, uh,
Speaker: promotions or, you know, whatever. And then they had the personality and whatnot that they caught the attention of the right people. And then the next thing you know, they were phone screeners and they would get a little bit of bite time here and there.
Speaker: And now they're getting you know full a dizzy who was a on on on Nonsense. Well nonsense He hosts the after show it in the dudes and high demand like every fucking show once dizzy on it Which is I'm happy for the kid. That's that's awesome because you know, he kind of stumbled into radio Yeah, I mean and that's the thing, you know
Speaker: Like I know when my mentor asked me, he's like, so do you do a podcast? And I said, yeah, I got my own podcast. And he's like, that's pretty good. And then he wanted to listen to episodes. And I'm like, Oh God. It's just like, if you wanted to run into a wall 500 times, you can just do that. You don't have to listen to my show. Well, a lot of people will, you know, import, um,
Speaker: import their news or whatever. There are a couple stations up here where you'll get a news report and it's from New York or you know, it's something like that, but it's live news. You know what I mean? There's a couple radio stations that do there and it's like, it's one of those weird things where like news on the tens, weather and traffic on the nines, you know, whatever. And you know, like every 10 minutes or every nine minutes, they drop a weather report and traffic reporter
Speaker: uh you know whatever the case may be but uh yeah yeah we we have a couple radio stations here uh that that import the live news from different areas um just because you know you also have to remember like
Speaker: Markets, you know, like New York, California You know that they're high in markets Tampa's a big market, you know, Vegas Texas cities and well, and that's that's the thing they run a radio station just like you said the high markets podcast. Yeah That's why I'm doing other podcasts Benji to myself. It's just at the same time. It's just
Speaker: It's a whole different ballgame trying. That's why like with my podcast, it's a variety thing. So either if I'm not doing movie reviews or TV reviews, I'm doing sports reviews. And it's just like, that's like me, why I wanted to, even though I'm in radio broadcasting, I want to do sports.
Speaker: because it's something I'm familiar with. But at the same time, like, I do get certain radio stations because I'm considered freelance, and I can take on freelance work. So if they have a shit ton of commercials that need to be done, send them on to me. I mean, how my mentor makes about three grand, depending on the commercial.
Speaker: Yeah, I think it's a nice thing about stepping out of your comfort zone. And I think that's one of the things that I've told you. You know, you've stepped way out of your comfort zone doing this show, hanging out with us on nonsensical nonsense and stuff like that. And, you know, and I know you, you know, we do it all in Jess. We do it just, you know. No, you don't. You guys do it to see if I'll finally fucking do so.
Speaker: I, you know, I do it. Nobody else does it. I do it. Uh, you know, nobody else. It's just me. Yeah, no, it wouldn't be Connor or Jeff or, uh, Brian or any other. But stepping out of your comfort zone, and I've told you this, I've seen a new, a new, um, confidence in you that you didn't have when we first met each other. Um, when you were, when you came on as a guest on our show and we were interviewing you.
Speaker: You know you have a new confidence that you didn't have then and it shows when you do your it even shows when you do your show now Yeah, cuz I actually watch Well, yeah, you know unlike some people you know from talking shit or talking shit
Speaker: But no, I mean, and that's the thing, you know, a lot of people, they're born with that confidence. But me, it's taken a long time. I mean, I've been I've been doing my podcast for almost five years now. And to say I'm the most confident doing it, I'm getting there. And I think once I reach that zenith, I think I'll get some good views. I mean, I have my highest one on Zencaster has gone in 60 seconds.
Speaker: Yeah, Mark, you might actually have to watch my show. Mr. Oh, me and Brian always watch your show. Uh -huh. No, uh, but no, I've seen the confidence grow in you, man. And I love watching it. You know, I'm glad that we get, you know, you know, I get to be a part of it, not because it's an ego thing or anything else like that. It's, you know, putting that support out there and helping somebody grow and whatnot. And
Speaker: shit. You go back and listen to some of our first probably 50 episodes. Oh my God, even into the hot. Oh my God, man. We, and we still have shit. We still have dog shit episodes from time to time, but you know, that's why I had to stop listening because I'll crucify the hell out of myself. Um,
Speaker: Oh, last time I listened to one of my message of my own shows, I about you did my laptop off the fucking window. Because it's you start becoming your own worst critic. And at that point, you're not going to have any fun doing it. Exactly. You start to become your own worst critic. And then you start analyzing and overanalyzing and
Speaker: And, and, and, and over this kind of leads us into the topic account, one of the topic overthinking, which we'll get to, you know, cause we're getting close to a break here, but you know, you start overthinking. So when I'm doing this show, it's like, all right, don't, don't do what I did last time. All right. Okay. Don't let Jeff, don't let, you know, Tony, don't let Mike, don't let Carter like be mindful, be it. And it was just, it was just getting too much. And, and I was, I was getting to a point where I wasn't enjoying doing the show anymore.
Speaker: And it was like man i'm fucking up the natural rhythm of the show the natural flow Because i'm over here over analyzing every goddamn thing So I had to stop listening to my own podcast because i'm my own worst enemy at the end of the end of the day I'm my own fucking worst enemy Um Yeah, that's got
Speaker: God forbid, like we could all have like one of the best episodes out there that we feel proud of, but the algorithm's like, no, sit down, bitch. I'm talking, dude, the algorithms on some of these sites is so fucking out there. That just, it sucks. And not that we have a lot of subscribers or followers or anything like that, you know, I'm still working on growing it, but unfortunately I'm one guy and I do have a pretty busy life. Um,
Speaker: you know, for, for the, for the amounts of followers that we have. And I think we, we, we do all right as far as views and stuff like that. You know, the lives we might not get, uh, you know, our lives are ever changing, ever growing. Um, you know, some, some shows we might do and have, you know, one or two people in there the whole time, other shows we might have.
Speaker: 10, 15 people, whatever, but I liked, I enjoyed doing the lives because that does give the opportunity to have the chatters box and allow the, what in the world?
Speaker: Squirrel moment, everyone. Hold on. A lot of people who do want to watch the show and to take part in the show and add their two cents and conversate along with us. Yeah, I had to stop, man. So that's why I like doing the lives. Yeah, we get way more views and whatnot on the replays.
Speaker: you know, and then the, you know, Spotify's and stuff like that. It's, it's, it's insane. That blows my mind that the amount of people that listen to the show, but no, I'm not saying that my co -host tarnish my enjoyment. I'm saying that I start to overanalyze and over critique and, and then I'm, that I'm, you know, questioning the little things that I don't need. Like, Oh man, we should tweak that. Or I'm like, God, why?
Speaker: you know, I need to shut the fuck up, you know, type, you know, whatever the case may be. I, you know, yeah, my, my co -host, I can work around their bullshit any, any given day. It is what it is a bit, you know, they all start to understand that like Jarvis, like Jarvis, when we started the show, I mean, the guy had his goddamn television on full blast and I'm over here like, Oh no, everyone else had their fucking headset. Everyone had their headsets on high volume. Yeah.
Speaker: I can hear it through my, so I was like, I was like, I'm just going to ignore it. I'm going to try to speak louder and talk over it. And then the challenge box started calling them out. And if I sign into other accounts does, uh, just for that, just, just for that specific, um,
Speaker: time you come in and then if you, well, that's social media. Like, you know, if you're on Facebook, it's not going to count towards a view on, on, on YouTube or Twitch or vice versa. It's not like, like so, uh, I'm just going to real quick edit such on this and another app where we first started that if I went live and I did our show and then I went into 27 other shows,
Speaker: throughout the day, like their views counted. So you didn't get it. It showed you overall views for everything. Um, so if I went into 27 other lives and they had those 27 other lives had combined, you know, like 10 ,000 views, then I got credit for those 10 ,000 views, even though
Speaker: Oh, yeah. You know, I wasn't there the whole time. I just had to go be there for a few minutes. And some people thought that they were accomplishing something. And it's like, well, you're just kind of riding a coattail off somebody else because you don't get those numbers at all. Not even remotely close. Like we didn't even get those numbers. That's, you know, so some platforms are deceiving and misleading. Um, so yeah, you just gotta be mindful, you know, but
Speaker: that thank you like you for single -handedly trying to give us six different sets of eyeballs we appreciate you we appreciate you they do count us to account yeah yes so the Facebook views I don't ever even look at that you know I never really even look at that the only other thing ever I ever look at everyone's have a great while is YouTube
Speaker: I stopped. I stopped like on Twitch. There's so many people that like will have like how many people are watching at that time turned on. Just like, I don't know. And like if they lose one, then you can just tell them their demeanor were me. I turned all that shit off. Yeah, I don't. I don't. I don't.
Speaker: I don't know. I, I never really been a numbers guy because then I think, I think if you become a numbers person, then, then you lose your focus and in you, in you start to do things that you normally wouldn't do, uh, to, to basically beg for views and beg for people to watch you and, you know, like I am who I am at the end of the day. Let me or hate me. I am who I am. Uh, you know,
Speaker: can't change it. And, you know, that's one of those things that, you know, in this journey and that I'm taking with trying to understand or like try to try to be a good podcast host, see if I actually am a good podcast host, if I'm a good content creator. And it's not like I'm single handedly creating content because I do have
Speaker: you know, I do have a great group of guys around me with Jarvis and Connor and not so much Jeff, but Jeff's there, you know, but, you know, but you guys all kind of follow my lead. You guys kind of follow my lead and I, and I have to, I have to guide this circus. So, you know, I can't, I can't lose focus by worrying about numbers and views and
Speaker: and followers and stuff like that. Like in my head, it's like, we're going to grow. I'm going to, I'm going to do what I can to promote and we're going to grow organically and, and whatnot. Cause at the end of the day, I don't, I don't want to become one of those people that are super fake and, and, and something that I'm not because at the end of the day, this is, as I've said a million times, this is a dream of mine. Like, you know, I would love to make it. Um,
Speaker: Yes, exactly. Right? Well, exactly. You know, I mean, like, you know, that's the thing. People, they'll be like, oh, hey, I watched your show for like a second. It's like, to me, I'd rather have those people just turn it on, chat a little bit and then be like, you know what, I'm going to get up, go make a sandwich or whatever, go make dinner and still have it on.
Speaker: You know, that, that, that means a world to me. I, honest, I could care less, like I said, on even before I started Twitch, I could have cared less of getting affiliate. Like the only reason I got it is because there was enough people in there a couple of times that got me there.
Speaker: And it's not like Twitch was going to be like, oh, hey, you're an affiliate now. Here, we're going to help you get bigger. And to me, at the end of the day, I was never really doing, I don't do content creating at the end of the day to be like, oh, hey, I, I have a million dollars now and I'm going to go out there and buy the world or whatever. To me, it's something I love to do. I do this shit for free. I've been that way for many years.
Speaker: And ultimately support is, you know, like support is like real. That's huge. Real, real true support is so hard to come by these days because so many people and I've gotten burned. And that was one of the things that led me to do this show. You know, it doesn't take much. I mean, even yesterday, like Lady, I couldn't watch her show yesterday. She did. She does her Sunday documentaries. And I always forget to mention that because you do those every Sunday. And I always forget to mention those.
Speaker: But I popped in, I said, hi. I said, what's up? And then I shared it out. I said, you know, can't stay around. Got ready to eat dinner with the family. It was Easter and all that jazz. But I wanted to say hi. And I wanted to get it shared out. I threw it out there on our social medias and whatnot. Facts on facts, Leggy. That is so true. To know that people are actually listening and that, you know, it's working is so fricking nice.
Speaker: And there, I mean, there's people out there that, you know, they just stare at the numbers. And it's like, if their show doesn't do better each time, they, they'll go fucking insane. I've, I've seen it many times. And to me, it's just like, Hey, it's getting views happy. But at the same time, like it's something, someone learned something from me liking old movies. Like, Hey, I did my job.
Speaker: Well, yeah, that's that's that's my thing. You know, I feel like I said I am who I am. I don't pretend I don't fake, you know, probably one of the real I'm probably one of the realist people that most people would come across in their lifetime, you know, just because I know what it's like to be fake. Like I used to be fake. I used to I used to be fake, you know, way back in the day. And and all I did was caused me more pain, more heartache, more
Speaker: Scrambled my fucking brain more than it already was that it needed to be so Again, you know, this is a you know, this is a part of my my my journey my mental journey of Where I was to where I am now where I'm continuing to go. I
Speaker: and you know we've talked to like Mark and Brian and I'm not going to put too much out there because a lot of the conversations has been kind of behind the scenes but the guys have been burned and they're a little nervous when it comes to us and the network and myself because they don't want to be burned again but you know like Mark said he said I can see that you're not like the
Speaker: people we've dealt with before. And I pride myself on that. That makes me feel good. You know, that's one of the things that doesn't keep me up at night. I mean, it's one of the few things in life that I can feel good about myself, you know, outside of all the negative things that are in my head. I have a handful of things that I can feel good about myself and know like, you know, I'm not as terrible as I think I am.
Speaker: I mean, at the end of the day, at least I know I'll never get, I'll never get fired from this network because of supposedly my ego. Well, same effort. But then I also don't call myself the champ. So, you know, there's a, yes, agreed. I'd rather have real numbers, real people. I would really have small numbers, but real people that enjoy the content that we create rather than
Speaker: than fake numbers that don't engage in the content. You know what I mean? So we're going to take a real quick break. I had an agenda tonight. It's kind of a double agenda. And it all circles around to what we're talking about right now. So when we come back from break, I want to talk a little bit about overthinking.
Speaker: And being an overthinker, guilty as fucking charged. And I also want to talk about some of the things that cause us as adults or men, you know, it is men's mental health show. And I know this applies to everybody, but we're talking men, so. But some of the things that causes us to drive down that world of being overthinkers and
Speaker: Well then I think I might've created a new word tonight too for another topic. I want to talk about, but I'll bring that up later. Uh, anyways, we're going to take a real quick break, a little break. You poo, you guys can go refresh your drinks. Uh, go get you a little snacky snack. All right.

Speaker: All those other shows, you know, they, they've already got their viewers, but anyways, so tonight, tonight I wanted to talk about, sorry, Jarvis. I didn't give you a heads up because I honestly had no idea.
Speaker: I don't know, you and Connor usually like doing that to me. It's usually like, hey, let's not tell Jarvis what we're doing. We have a group chat that we're all three in. But I honestly had no idea. And I kind of came up with a subject, kind of off the fly, as I was thinking about some things. And I was just like, Oh, hello, here's a good cup. And then also,
Speaker: another topic that came up just out of pure coincidence, just thinking about things. But what I want to talk about is I want to talk about overthinkers, man. You know, I'm guilty of it. Sideboard's not being an overthinker, though, is generally... The same can go for you, too, jackass. Yeah, but Connor, if I come up with ideas, then what is he going to need Jeff for you for?
Speaker: I'm 100 % guilty of being an overthinker. And the sad part about being an overthinker is typically those thoughts and whatnot, they all come down to negativity at the end of the day, which takes its toll on us.
Speaker: you know with with with everything else we're already worried about wherever thinking everything like my job situation. You know it was driving me crazy and I'm like I'm expecting the worst you know that yesterday was going to come I wasn't going to have a job you know which means I'm not going to have money which means I'm not going to be able to pay bills which means
Speaker: You know, I'm going to lose the house. I'm going to lose my car. I'm going to, you know, kids aren't going to have groceries, you know, the food, you know, we're not going to have power. We're not going to have internet where, you know, all this terrible thing. Uh, you know, when it comes to overthinking, uh, and Jarvis, I feel like, you know, I feel like you're a bit of an overthinker too. Actually, I know you're an overthinker is where you are with this radio stuff because you had the mindset of you were going to graduate college and instantly have a job.
Speaker: No, I did not. Yeah, you won't admit it. But you might not admit it. But I trust Oh, I overthink everything like just because I graduated from school and thinking that that's, that's the least of the overthinking problems. I mean, fuck, I feel bad for Glick and for anyone else that knows me. And, you know, they're friends on Facebook, which Connor, he'll, he'll probably fucking block me here soon. When I when I'm like, two o 'clock in the morning going like, Hey, Connor,
Speaker: How do you think I did tonight? Did I do good? Did I do OK? Yeah. Was I good enough? But in a lot of times, and correct me if I'm wrong here, Jarvis, but I feel like a lot of times when we're when we overthink things and we're getting inside our heads, it's for no reason.
Speaker: Thanks, Connor. I tried my best. Um, yeah, you know, a lot of times it's, it's, it's for no reason. We're just, we're just programmed to instantly go to the worst case scenario. And our brain starts to run wild kind of starts to run crazy.
Speaker: Yeah, I'm Oh, definitely 100%. I mean, you know, it's not because of the mental health issues or anything. It's just, you know, we get into our head too much. I know me with my with when I do the Jarvis podcast or the Jerry Vichy project. Hey, yo, hey, yo. You know, it's
Speaker: I know once I put that episode out or I'm done recording, it's kind of like, God, hopefully that episode is, you know, hopefully I did good. Hopefully I put enough information in there for people that want to see the movie or that are like, Hey, you know, damn that Jarvis guy, you know, fuck, you don't need Glick anymore. He's doing good on his own. Agree. Poor self talk, poor self thoughts. Facts on facts.
Speaker: Yeah. And it wears on your confidence. Sometimes you're thinking it's going to wear on your confidence as well. You know what I mean? And again, that's one of the reasons why I had to stop listening to the show because then I started overthinking everything and I started, and like I said, I'm overthinking literally every aspect of the show. And it's just like, I'm not having fun anymore. You know what I mean? So it's, it's, you know, it really wear or, or,
Speaker: plants or seeds of self -doubt. Now, you know, I always like to have a little bit of something, something that, you know, the experts say. And Jarvis, I'd like your input on this as well. They say maybe you overthink so much because there's a few things here. I'm just going to kind of go one by one and kind of chitchat about each one of them. You didn't grow up in a safe environment.
Speaker: you know, not necessarily does that always mean having, you know, child abuse or, you know, or anything like just naturally a not safe or an unsafe environment, whether you have a parent who is an addict or a parent who doesn't live in the best neighborhoods or, you know, the ultimate
Speaker: Equation in this is is you have abusive parents or an abusive parent? You know Jarvis has spoke on his situation, you know, like I said, I don't think my parents ever abused me but You know when I was with my mom I definitely was not in a safe environment She was an addict
Speaker: Uh, we lived in a shitty, we lived in shitty neighborhoods, shitty environments, shitty worlds, um, that created, you know, created that unsafe space for me. So you have that, you, you have that, I guess you could say trauma that you're already, you're processing at a young age that carries into your adulthood, which could cause you to, uh, constantly overthink or, uh, getting your head a little bit too much.
Speaker: Do you agree with that Jarvis you got anything you'd like I mean definitely I mean, you know Just when I watched my parents growing up, you know and how they didn't try to fight in front of You know, um, they didn't try and fight in front of us but like
Speaker: I know my parents when they got divorced, when I was young, it kind of made me think like, well, you know, I saw how other friends and their parents acted, you know, and they were happy. And it's just like, am I going to ever have that? You know, so then you start overthinking that when you're in a relationship, it's like, or
Speaker: I'll be honest, like I told Alyssa the first time I took her on her birthday to Red Lobster about almost eight years ago now was
Speaker: Um, you know, is this going to be a good enough for her of a restaurant? Is she gonna, you know, am I going to be able to, you know, show her that, Hey, you know, we can have fun or is she having fun? And am I being a jackass? Most of the time I answered yes, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker: but you know like there's even times where like Glick even knows like I'll get done with the show doing this and I'll we'll be in a party just talking to ourselves and Glick's like so how do you feel about that and I'll be like god I fucking suck and Glick can attest to that uh Mark can attest to that um I'm trying to get better but I mean at the same time like
Speaker: I'm so glad I don't re -listen to either this show or Jarvis podcast because I would pick out every single thing I did wrong. Even when I didn't. Yeah, and that's the great thing about being a part of a show or being a part of something.
Speaker: where the guys that are around you are, are, are truly there to support you. You know what I mean? Because like when you want to beat yourself up, typically, yeah, we're going to bust your balls. But typically when it comes down, when it, when it comes down to, to, to real talk, you know, myself or Connor or whatever, we're usually like, yeah, dude, you did a good job. Don't fucking worry about it.
Speaker: You know, and Connor, you know, saying, you know, the poor self talk will ruin you. Definitely. I'm always in my head. Like I'm always fucking sitting here. I could be sitting here watching a movie and Alyssa could be watching the movie and I'm thinking to myself, is my wife really happy? And then I'll have to ask, Hey, Alyssa, are you happy? And she'll be like, yeah. And then in my brain, it's kind of like one side saying, yeah, you know, you're doing a good job as a husband. Other sides, like, dude, you're a fucking idiot.
Speaker: Yeah. Well, you know, overthinking, I just, I just thought of this. So I'm kind of proud of myself. I don't know if anybody else has ever said it or not, but if not, yeah, patent that shit. Copyright it right now, 2024, April 1st, 2024. Um, overthinking plants, the seeds of self -doubt. So when you start overthinking, you start overanalyzing you, you're automatically putting
Speaker: Those doubts into your brain, into your mind, and then when those C's start to blossom, they start to bloom, it turns into that negativity, that mindset of, oh man, what am I doing? I suck. Why? I could be better. Why is Nikki with me when she could do so much better or Alyssa or Connor's Nikki or whatever? Why are women, why is our wires with us? They can do so much better than me.
Speaker: I'm not a good person whenever that, that, that, that negativity starts to, and then it all starts with those seeds when we start overthinking, because once we start overthinking, that's a sign of we're starting to get trapped in our own heads. They also say that, you know, overthinkers,
Speaker: We're over thinkers because we took on adult duties way too early in our lives. You know, I know a lot of people, myself included, I had to grow up fast. I think that's why I'm still to this day, you know, today in my forties, I'm, I'm still a big kid at heart because, you know, I did have to kind of, okay. Uh, you know, I didn't have to grow up fast.
Speaker: You know, unfortunately, uh, I did have to do, you know, I had to take care of my little sister a lot of the times. Uh, I had to do things that, you know, my parents should have done and they're not putting me, you know, I'm not, I'm not just. Look, they made mistakes. It is what it is. I don't want to beat them up over what they did. You know, that's just fucking life. Uh, my sister's only younger than me, but still, you know, I had to look out for it to take care of her and stuff like that. Um, that's one of the other things they, um,
Speaker: Also says that, you know, and this is, this is, this is a tough one for me. And this is, this is where a lot of my early thinking comes from because this also starts to affect relationships. Uh, whether it's with your significant others, your friends, uh, your family, whatever the case may be. Um, no matter how hard you try, you want, you always wind up getting hurt at the end of the day. So, you know, a lot of times when it's like, man, things are going great, things are going good, you know,
Speaker: in the back of your mind, you start overthinking like, when's the other foot going to drop? I know it's going to happen because it always happens even in jobs. I spent a lot of the last month and a half just hamster wheel fucking turning and burning, man, because I was really expecting the absolute fucking worst to happen because that's what I'm used to at the end of the day.
Speaker: You know, every time something, you know, whether it's a job or, you know, living situation or whatever, it's always come back and kicked me in the fucking dick repeatedly. And it's just like, yeah, seeing that coming. I guess I was right. So again, that kind of waters those seeds because it's like, see, I thought the worst and, you know,
Speaker: Hey, look, it looks better half or the only half is, as we always say. Also things that lead to being an overthinker is when you do make mistakes, people, people really getting on you and really riding your ass, you know, judging you too harshly, whatever the case may be. Like you, like you've said Jarvis in, in, in your past, your past podcasting experience, or even
Speaker: Mark and Brian, you know, their past, their past experiences, you know, one little mistake and it's the end of the fucking road. I mean, even my, you know, when I met my wife, my now wife, um, her mother, my mother -in -law has all like, would ask Alyssa, you know, like, why does Steven not talk to people? And then it's like,
Speaker: Well, because, you know, Steven just, Steven likes to be by himself. And then that became a big deal. And then it's like, whenever you go over there, it's like you over, I overthink because it's like, well, gee, I wonder what I did. I'm doing wrong now. You know, it sucks. My, uh, my ex -in -laws did the same thing. Well, my ex mother -in -law, she did the same thing to me, man. She was constantly taking shots, kicking me when I'm like, like,
Speaker: the hell, you know, the hell did I ever do to you other than fucking treat your daughter, right? Take care of her and make sure the kids were good when we had kids. And, and, and, you know, she never went without with me, but you know, I'm still dealt that, that judgment and it, and it's less like, it does, man. It starts to, it starts to eat away. It starts to beat away at you to where you're just constantly in your own fucking head. Um, you've had to figure out, um, everything on your own.
Speaker: Um, that feeling of never that, and this is kind of a, uh, you know, like, uh, like a, uh, um, a symptom, you know, you never feel like anybody is there. You always feel like you're alone or that you can't rely on anybody else. So you just go through life. Just I'll figure it out. I'll figure it out. I'll make it happen. You know, I'll do it. Nobody's nobody's going to help me anyways. Um, definitely.
Speaker: because, you know, everybody looks at me like, like I'm fucking stupid anyway. So why, why, you know, I'll just, I'll just figure things out. And the last thing, and the last thing that's on here, and this kind of goes back, you know, when you get dumped on people or you have relationships that fail, especially if you're in relationships that, you know, for me, all my past relationships kind of treated me, it kind of made me feel like this. Um,
Speaker: all, you know, all but one, but at the end of the day, when it was all said and done, still kind of felt, you know, I was still made to kind of feel like this, but you never feel like you're good enough. Always made to feel like you're not good enough. So whether, you know, again, relationships are good. Relationships are those, those, those, when it comes to your, your, your, your, your, your other half,
Speaker: those relationships really take their toll on, on your, on your mental psyche, as well as your relationship with your friend or your family. You know, it starts at a young age of your family's going to make you feel a certain type of way, you know, and then when you were getting into relationships and I've had several relationships where it just made sure they did everything they possibly could to just make me feel like, like I was never good enough.
Speaker: Uh, you know, like I said, you know, I, there's one relationship that was out there where I did learn to stand up for myself and, and, and, and learn that it's okay to put my foot down. But at the end of the day, when it was all said and done, Oh, still wasn't good enough. Say the right things. You do the right things. You try to try your damnedest and again, no matter how hard you try.
Speaker: You still wind up hurt. You still wind up looking like a fucking buffoon. My family's done the same thing. So, you know, for me personally, I've had to cut those ties and you know, I've gotten better about being an overthinker, but still that, that, that doubt and that, and that second guessing yourself and, and always lingers.
Speaker: No matter what if Nikki and I have a bad day or something like that is to like it's triggered I'm overthinking I fucked up. I'm not good enough This is gonna end. This is gonna end horribly. She's gonna leave. I'm gonna wake up in the morning. She's gonna be gone I'm never gonna talk to her again all that negativity Kind of you know comes comes flooding it Well, I mean exactly, you know
Speaker: I be 100 % honest, there was times where I couldn't look at myself in the mirror, you know, and thank God I had, I have a wife that sits there and will be like, you know what, you're doing the best you can. If other people can't see that, just know that I can. And so it that and
Speaker: my YouTube music playlist usually gets me through a lot of bad shit. I mean, uh, one of the biggest things that you said, you know, and I think Luke Bryan hit the nail on the head, you know, do I, or, uh,
Speaker: Sammy Kershaw with better than I used to be. I'd never liked who I used to be, but at the same time, it's that uphill climb. I could be perfect and someone would find some flaw that wouldn't even be there.
Speaker: And they would say, Nope, you're not perfect because of this and grand where no one could ever be perfect in life. But at the same time, like I've always told my wife, I'm like, if no matter what I had, if I had a million dollars, my mother -in -law, good, bad, or otherwise, and she knows us would find a reason, another reason to say, I'm not doing good enough. Yeah, exactly. And to me.
Speaker: Like I told my mother in law one time, I said, you know what? I've gotten to the point where, honestly, and make me sound like a dick, her opinion of me, it never even fucking phases into my life anymore. Because I'm already doing that shit enough. I'm already second guessing, overthinking myself. Like,
Speaker: my wife could be taking a nap and it's just like, God, is she thinking about Channing Tatum from Magic Mike? Is she thinking about Adam Sandler from Happy Gilmore? Is she thinking about, you know, a million different other guys than me? And it's just like, it can kill you. You know, you can be having a great fucking day and all of a sudden you start that overthinking that train starts moving a little bit. That crazy train, you know, all aboard.
Speaker: Yes. All aboard the crazy train. Yeah. No, I mean, no, that's the thing. And you know, that's, that's the downside. That's the, that's the unfortunate thing. You know, those seeds of ever thinking are planted, you know, from, from jump street. And then, and then they just continue to grow and they, they, they, they don't get better.
Speaker: You know, as you go through dealing with people and having people in your life and, you know, depending upon how they. Perceive you or treat you or whatever the case may be.
Speaker: And that's, and for anybody out there that's an overthinker, man, that's, that's, that's a, that's a mental, that's a mental nuke at the end of the day. Come on, Alyssa. We all know you're thinking about the champ. You're like, I need to touch that belt. But yeah, no, I 100 % agree with you on that Glick. And, you know, as I've always said, you know,
Speaker: Like people ask you once you get married like, Hey, when the, when are the grandkids coming or when are the kids coming? And it's just like, you're sitting there and it's like, Oh, good God. Now I got another thing. I got to overthink. Right.
Speaker: No, exactly. It sucks. Like, dude, no matter what you do in life, like you get a job and someone's going to be like, well, are you making enough money? Are you going to be able to provide for you and your wife and your future kids one day? And it's just like, good God, whatever happened to the, Hey, you got a good job. Hey, you got a job. Good job, dumbass. Finally. Hey, congratulations. That's what I said. You know, that's, that's the downside of it.
Speaker: Remember taxes come out. You got to pay your taxes. You got your bills. That's, that's the, uh, that's the downside of when it comes to, you know, overthinking and whatnot. And unfortunately, you know, urban thinking is, is a huge part of, of, of your mental health. It's one of those things, you know, you could be having a great fucking week and then you get one little hiccup.
Speaker: one little hiccup. And it's that fucking hamster wheel, crazy train, whatever you want to call it, man. It gets it rolling. And that poor old lady, that's got one more week of life living. And it's just like, come on, brain. Come on, brain. The lady in your brain is like, I'm feeling as fast as I can.
Speaker: Yeah. And unfortunately the downside of ever thinking, at least in my experience and other people that I've talked to about the overthinking thing, it's never positive. At the end of the day, it's always negative. You were like, nobody has ever, at least to my knowledge or, you know, uh, or for me personally, I've never once hit a situation where I was overthinking and instantly was like,
Speaker: You know, everything's just going to be sunshine and fucking roses. No, it's it's fucking fire and brimstone. It's the end of the world. It's a goddamn apocalypse. We're all going to fucking die.
Speaker: Hopefully you kissed your babies and told the people you needed to that you love them because I know a sucker this this Ferris wheel is stopping and you're gonna get off at the top of it like oh So at the fall that kills you it's a sudden stop at the end of the day Hey Glick, did you jump? Yeah a little bit at first Hey Glick after the show, do you want to talk about it, bro?
Speaker: But no, like 100 % and, you know, like no matter, and we've said it multiple times already, no matter what you do, there's always something like you're going to nitpick to death. Like I know if once I get my radio job or something, I have a good radio or something. And yes, some of those daisies and sunflowers. Ladies and gentlemen,
Speaker: I wonder who let that fucking hippie in the comments section. Good God. Like I said, it's the end of times, ladies and gentlemen. I'm standing on a street corner in my head, in my head. A little mini -glick is on the street corner. And at the end of the time, he's got his little fucking picket sign. And we're all going to die, bro. And I'm like, I know. It's going to be the worst thing ever, man. That little glix on his shoulder saying, kiss my ass and suck my dick, fuckers.
Speaker: That's exactly what it's like when you ever think, man, and jokes and stuff now because I mean, you know, I've lived through these moments for so long. You know what I mean? Like.
Speaker: I, you know, and I go through them, you know, like I said, the last month and a half, I've been in my head, it's, it's, it's, it's a worst case scenario. There, there is no, there is no fucking, uh, everything's going to be all right. Once you start overthinking, because like I said, you, you, you plant those seeds and here comes the self doubt. Here comes you looking in the mirror and you're like,
Speaker: God, you fucking suck. God, you're ugly. God, you're this, you're that. Just stop doing podcasts and just fuck. You're not a good dad. You're dada, dada, dada, dada. It's like, boom. And then, and then them sees a self -doubt. They're already planning. Well, no, let's not forget about their fucking friends, depression and anxiety and everything else.
Speaker: And that's the, that's, that's, that is the goddamn domino effect of overthinking. And this doesn't just, you know, this is a men's mental health show. And yeah, we're talking about men's mental health, but this is just applies to life in general for people who deal with mental issues. I mean, that's that goddamn domino effect. It all starts with the fucking hamster wheel, crazy train, just fucking going. And then all the others. And then, and then you find yourself in a bad place, man.
Speaker: And again, that's why we say it's okay. Pack your suitcase. Go visit. But don't live there. Don't stay there. Let's go visit. You know, it's not the Hotel of California. Exactly. You can check out and you can fucking leave.
Speaker: you know that that's the thing at the end of the day that a lot of people don't understand is that you know when they hear someone say you know depression and anxiety and all that they automatically think oh god you know their their life must be horrible and sometimes it is but ultimately at the end of the day that's why there is you know that's why we're talking is because if you don't talk it builds and i've
Speaker: Hi, my name's Steven Jarvis and I've been one of them people that fucking has been the ones that would be like, Oh no, you know, I'm, I'm good. Yes, ma 'am. That crazy train Alyssa is not only going a thousand miles per hour, it reaches speeds of fuck you miles per hour. No breaks. There's no break. The break gets broken. Yeah. Once it starts screaming down, once it starts screaming down the track,
Speaker: There's no breaks. There's no fucks. It's game over, man. It's game over, man. But it's like a game of cod zombies where you think you have the right, or it's like when you play cod zombies with Glick and Glick's like, hey, Steven, let's go into level number three. It ain't going to be that bad. Next thing you know, you're getting fucking a bunch of zombies are just bending you over and saying, hey, how do you like this zombie dick, big boar? Hey, you know what?
Speaker: I dragged us right to the gates of hell and we went through hell and I got us out today. I redeemed myself today. No, but that's the thing. And that's the great thing. You know, that's the great thing about it was the whole purpose of starting this show. And the whole reason I wanted to do this show is because for so long, men have felt like we go through these struggles and we go through these battles alone. But just like, you know, call of duty zombies.
Speaker: Jarvis and I were going through hell, but we were right there. We had each other's backs side by side, going through hell together in zombies. This is a hell of a reference, by the way, Jarvis. Congratulations. Good job on you. This is a hell of a reference because this is
Speaker: Yeah, I can be happy for about five minutes. You got my hamster wheel turning, but in a good way. So side by side, playing zombies, man, going through hell, dealing with these zombies, just kicking our asses left and right. But we had each other's backs. That's the whole reason I started this show, because at the end of the day, yes, your thinking leads to so many more bad things. But the biggest problem that men face when it comes to our mental health
Speaker: is the fact that we feel like we're alone. We don't have a support system. We don't have people out there that give a damn. Well, guess what? Now we do. And that's what we want to do with this show. We want to show guys that are out there. Look, there's people out there who give a rat's fuck about what you're going through. We've been through it ourselves and we kept pushing through, but now you're not doing it alone.
Speaker: So there's, there's, there's overthinking moments that lead to the crazy train with no breaks, the fucking snowball effect going down the hill and the snowball gets bigger and bigger and bigger and more and more destructive. Those days, they start to get easier. They start to get better. They start to get few and far in between because you're like, Hey, guys going through the same thing I'm going through. And the great thing about it.
Speaker: guys know our social media. I run our social media. If you reach out, I'm gonna I'm gonna answer and I don't have to know you from Adam. Steven don't have to know you from Adam. We're gonna be there. It's all about having the proper support system in place and what I've learned. Another thing I've learned is that I, you know, it's okay to to rely on Nikki, you know, or my significant other because
Speaker: If I'm going through it, she's going through it. We are a team. It's not her world and my world. And they just occasionally bump uglies. This is our world now. You started this, by the way, Steven. This is our world. I've got a partner. And it's nice when you have a real partner, a legitimate partner that is there to actually grow with you.
Speaker: as one as not only as one but as two you guys are individuals but you're also the same so you guys grow together and you achieve together and it's nice to have that and and that helps with your with your mental state as well and that's again guys we're going through it we're living it god damn
Speaker: We're a living, breathing testimonial of the fucking struggle. And we're here every week. You're not alone. Jarvis isn't alone. He knows that hell I got his back 100%. When we're going through that, when the seas get planted and we get on that fucking crazy train, Jarvis knows he can reach out to me. And I got him. Connor knows that. All the guys who are part of this network, what we do in this podcast world know that
Speaker: When that train's going a thousand miles an hour, I'm running right beside that son of a bitch and I'm jumping on it with them. And we're riding that fucking storm out together and I'm going to be there to support them and help them. And that's what's all about realizing that we're not alone anymore. So when we do hit those, when we do hit that overthinking mentality, it gets easier, you know, I've
Speaker: I've watched it get easier with my guys. I've watched it get easier for Jarvis. I've watched it get easier for Connor. I've watched it get easier for Jeff. These are guys that I've done a lot of stuff with, a lot of shows, let me rephrase that, a lot of shows with. And I think that you'll see that same thing from Mark and Brian.
Speaker: Are we all, are we, are we ever going to be perfect? No, we're all going to have our struggles. But I know when I get to overthink and I can be like, Oh, Steven, Mark and Brian are on call of duty. Let me jump on there and play with the guys. Hey broadcast, Steven fucking suffered his eighth mental breakdown already. Jarvis is very aggro at the game, but nonetheless, you know what I mean? So.
Speaker: It's okay. Thank you, Brian. Asshole. Remember, you're the reason you're my 18 th reason why it's okay to overthink. We're all going to do it. It sucks, but you Brian, mister, I can't be bothered to play cod.
Speaker: You're going to have a, you're going to give yourself an entire fucking complex about that. The guy has a job. Oh, I got a job. Oh God. I'm so important at work. I mean, if I had some facts on facts, Brian, I mean, you know, it's okay. We're all good. Yeah. Like I said,
Speaker: We're all going to overthink things from time to time. We're going to be there. We're going to live there or we're going to, we're going to visit. We're not going to live there. Okay. Your pyramid scheme is pretty important. You maybe not. So you can get to level two. Yeah. You know, your kills would say your kills and call of duty would say you're, you're not important. I mean, you know, but, um,
Speaker: No, I had to carry you many times. This guy. But like I said, I'm getting carried, but you know, I'm not talking about me. Now, like I said, you know, the the the overthinking thing, it's it's it's it's going to happen. Let's face it. You know, for me personally, any I'm a very routine type of guy. You know what I mean? You know, like just to
Speaker: I can, I can adapt and change, but I'm very routine when it comes to job and, you know, my bills and stuff like that. Anytime there's a minor inconvenience or, or, or monkey rings thrown into a plan, guess who's instantly overthinking and overanalyzing everything. Or, I mean, even, even if I miss a show, you know, uh, something that I don't plan for.
Speaker: Obviously, I take time off and go do things with the family, whatever. Nicky and I do stuff. And I take a show off. That's exclusion. I'm talking about a couple of Mondays ago, I was sick. Even though I'm sick, I'm in my head because we weren't doing the show. And I'm like, well, I let Mark and Brian down. I let Steven down. I let Connor down. Even though Steven wasn't going to be on the show, Connor wasn't going to be on the show. It was literally just going to be me and Mark and Brian. And I was going to be sick as hell.
Speaker: But I started fucking, yeah, I started overthinking. I started worrying about it. And there was no reason to. And again, shout out to Brian. Brian said, don't worry about it, man. We'll pick it back up Thursday. All good. That was that voice of reason that we need to have that support.
Speaker: And we're gonna get ready to take another break. And that leads me into my next topic of conversation. The friendships that men have with other men. Those real friendships. You know, that type of, I got you no matter what type of shit. And I might have invented a new word, but I'll tell you after this break. I do wanna take a real quick break before we go to break.

Speaker: Welcome back to men care for men. As I was saying right before the break, I wanted to talk about, you know, the friendships and the relationships that men have with each other. You know, it's when, when you, when you find somebody and you, and you connect when, you know, that, that, that bond between two men, two men and platonic is, is damn near, is damn near unbreakable. You know, um, I dare say,
Speaker: And I think I made this up because I've never seen it anywhere else. I want to talk about manships, like a relationship between two men, but a platonic relationship. You know what I mean? Like, like friendships and stuff. It's a manship. Oh, scrub said guy love once upon a time. We're going to call it manships. Um, but, uh,
Speaker: It's that, it's that, you know, like I said, it's, it's, it's unflappable, man. When you, when you have that connection with somebody, you guys really, you, you ride every storm, you ride every storm, you go through, uh, everything together and you always got each other's backs no matter what. Am I right? Or am I wrong? Am I just talking about my ass here, Jarvis? No, I mean, you know, that, that is the thing, like, you know, you got,
Speaker: the brothers, the brotherhood, you got the, you know, the people that when you first meet them, you know, Hey, you know, they're pretty cool guys. And it turns into that friendship or that friendship grows and it turns into a brotherhood or, you know, a sisterhood or whatever hood, you know, um, I know that once I met a few of the people in the podcasting world, it became kind of like family, you know, I mean,
Speaker: me, Glick, a few others like Connor, Jeff, we all said one day we wanna meet up somewhere and either have drinks or barbecue and hopefully Jeff isn't wanted on his Ponzi scheme that Bernie made off copycat. Love you Jeff. But that's why he's down in Mexico and we're here in America.
Speaker: Oh wait, that's right. We can't say that until Wednesday or Saturday. Sorry, Jeff. Sorry. But no, um, uh, you know, if we're calling it manships or whatever, that's kind of a weird word, but you know, at the same time, like it's true. Progress. It was just popped into my head. It's a manship. You know, it's kind of between two men. All right. Like don't, don't bust my balls too much. Well, there's another word for, uh,
Speaker: But, uh, no, like I said, you know, uh, it's one of those things where most of the time guys like to talk to each other more than we like to talk to our wives, you know. Well, certainly that, but when you have a friendship, when you, when you, when you have that, when you have that bond.
Speaker: Okay, Brian, stay stay being a co host. You're good at that relationship. That's, that's good. That's a good one too. Don't, don't you give him his relationship, a man's ship, whatever the case may be, but you know, sometimes, sometimes that, that, that, that bond, that friendship is, it's thicker than blood, man. Like, you know, I don't have a brother per se, but I have guys that,
Speaker: I consider brothers and I have friends that value the friendship that we have and look at me, if not as more of a brother to them than actual brothers or just the same as they look at their brothers. And when I talk about that, when I talk about a man -ship or a relationship, it's the type of thing where
Speaker: Hey, not only are you guys always there for each other, you always got each other's backs. And I go back to like, Dragon Steven to hell and zombies. And we, it's a video game. It's not real life. We aim for the bushes. Okay. But, but, you know, side by side, no matter what we were, we were right there. We was rocking and rolling and, and, and, and, and, you know,
Speaker: back in and out. So just the best choice of words, but come here, Steven. A different type of man relationship. That's totally different man. Hey, what happens in the man relationship stays in the man relationship, you know, but like, find it out in the video game, but, but in real life, you know, always being there for each other, always having each other's backs, you know, like,
Speaker: if somebody does you wrong, instantly, I don't give a shit about that person. And it's like, all right, well, let's get you back. Like, let's get these motherfuckers back. You know, I say this a lot, and I've said this to many people, well, not many people, but my very small circle. I don't know why I said many. If I'm eating Yuri,
Speaker: That means, that means a lot of different things on a lot of different levels at the end of the day. If I say, Hey man, let's go get something to eat. And you say, I ain't got no money. I didn't ask you if you have money. I said, let's go get something to eat. Or in this world that we're creating, you know, as podcasters or content creators, if I'm eating, you're eating. If I'm doing good, you're doing good because we're supporting each other. We're there for each other. And, and, and,
Speaker: And the friendship between men that men develop goes deeper than anything else out there at the end of the day. I've got friendships that have lasted a lifetime and they will literally, Jeff and I will somehow, someway end up in the same fucking nursing home together living out our final year.
Speaker: But first you need friends. Yeah, you got it. Well, I mean, that is true. That is true. I mean, yeah, that is true. But, you know, at the same time, you got to look in the mirror and be like, hey, why don't I have friends? You know, I have developed friendships since I started doing this podcast. Jarvis, you're one of them, you know.
Speaker: I consider you like a ride or die friend type deal. Mark and Brian, we're starting to develop that friendship. I got their back. I want to support them. I want to watch them grow. I'm the type of person that I will put everybody else's success ahead of mine.
Speaker: And, and again, that's, if I'm doing good, I want you, I want, I want you guys to do just as good, if not better. So if I'm eating, you guys are eating. You know what I mean? If Glick's eating prime rib, you better believe you're going to eat it too. Even if you don't like it, he's going to force that down your throat and he's going to massage your throat while you're. Wow. Nevermind. Nevermind. Connor will.
Speaker: And a lot of times, some of the best friendships between men are the ones that are unexpected. Connor and I, in a normal circumstance, in a normal world, or while you Jarvis, Mark and Brian as well, in a normal world,
Speaker: We would have never crossed paths, but somehow, some way, Connor and I crossed paths. And we developed a friendship that even after we went our separate ways and he reenlisted and he was living halfway on the other side of the country or at some times he was on the other side of the fucking world. We still talked all the time. Our friendship continued to grow.
Speaker: You know, same thing with, you know, we simply met just because you were fucking being weird on StreamYard collabs and was like, oh, I want to be on their podcast. I don't know nothing about it, but I would like to be a guest. Well, yeah, I mean, you know, and that's the thing. You know, at the end of the day, like me and Glick and of course, Brian and Mark and a bunch of us have said, you know,
Speaker: The only way we're going to be a success is if we're in it together. And at the end of the day, we are. A lot of people say, oh, well, they're just saying that to help their egos. And you know what? That's the farthest thing from the truth. If Glick, I've told Glick this, I've told Brian, I've told Connor, I've told Mark.
Speaker: I'm a phone call away. I'm a text away. And if I'm doing something, you better believe if I get that phone call or I get that text saying, Hey, I need my bro. Bam. That phone call, I'm dropping everything. And I don't care if it takes hours, days, whatever. We're going to fucking work it out. Yeah, exactly. Uh, yeah.
Speaker: Shit, I'm still trying to earn my place in the fucking podcast role. Okay, Brian, we get it. Talking shit is amazing. We get it. Thanks for rubbing in some of our small, you know, some of us luster podcast spaces. Thanks. Yeah. Why don't you just three, 300 Spartan kick us into the pit. This is talking shit's world.
Speaker: But no, like, honestly, I can't wait to meet some of the podcasters that I've touched base with. Glick, Brian, Mark, well, Texas Brian as well, Jeff, Connor with the hardy art.
Speaker: You know, I just, I can't wait for that day. You know, I think one day when it, when we made it or whatever, we should plan a vacation and just hang out somewhere, go to a game or something. No. And, and, and, you know, and, and unfortunately, you know, sometimes sometimes you get burned. Been there many times.
Speaker: And Jeff and Jeff can attest to this, Jeff and I have talked about it. It's a lot like relation, like, I like a relationship. You know, I've been, man, I've been burned by it. Fuck you, Mark. Pretty much my wife. You know, I've been, I've been burned by damn near
Speaker: Every woman I've been with has fucking made me look like a jackass at the end of the day. And I know I'm not 100 % innocent in all those relationships. It is what it is.
Speaker: you reach a point where, and that's why my circle is as small as it is now. I mean, I could damn near count on two hands, the amount of guys that I call friends, but I know those guys that I call friends, I know that we're as thick as thieves. I also know that they're gonna look out for me the same way that I'm gonna look out for them. And I think that's what a lot of people don't understand.
Speaker: A lot of times when you look, and yes, we are childish and yes, we are very immature, but when you look at a friendship between two guys, or if you're, if you're, if you're a friend group and you've got multiple guys, uh, and you see them all together in the same place, they can be very childish or very immature. You know? Um, but that's because they feel.
Speaker: Sorry, guys. I'm putting our cigarettes out there. We feel safe. We feel secure. We feel like we can we can be ourselves and and we can have fun because at the end of the day, this is our this is our crew. These are our guys. You know, and you can see the difference between you're my friend, but these are my fucking boys right here. Like because I hang out with some people way differently than I hang out with like
Speaker: You know, one of my best friends, him and I, when we get together, you know, we're just fucking.
Speaker: like 14 year old boys, man. We're making fart jokes. This fucking podcast thing that I'm doing, man. I get to hang out with my best friends and Wednesdays and Saturdays. It's as immature as it could possibly fucking be. And yeah, we leave our dick and fart jokes alone. Good outsiders who come in and join us on Saturday nights. But the core group, you know, when we're all together and I do include Mark and Brian into that group, you know, when,
Speaker: You put the six of us on a stream together. We're acting straight fools, but we're having fun and we're enjoying ourselves. Why? Because we have created them friendships or those that safety net or whatever you want to call it to where we can just be ourselves. Oh God, you old person. Good God.
Speaker: Bingo, that's all he fucking wants to do is go to bingo. Okay. Well, let me know I don't know where they're at. No, I will let me know Every every time we're in a fucking thing. Hey you guys go to bingo It's like good. God. Are you what you tell me you eat supper at roughly four o 'clock there Brian It's great with it and the crazy thing about it is
Speaker: you know, sometimes, like I said, once that connection is there and you know that, that it's, that it's real, you know, it's not something that just goes on their old lady. Yeah. Like it's, it's not something that you have any say in, in that you have any say in the matter of, because it's going to happen regardless. It's kind of, you know, what I'll say that for Saturday night, but, um,
Speaker: You know, that's a great thing. That's an awesome thing to have. And, you know, as times change, you know, because I've got a tight knit circle of friends that there's five of us and I've only met four of them in real life. And that was because one of them was one of my best friends and two of them after playing video games together for two years, I realized, or we all realized that we lived 20 minutes from each other.
Speaker: And then the other guy, he's all the way out in Oklahoma. So we, we've never had the opportunity for all five of us to be together in the same place at the same time. However, you know, we game together for several years. That's how we all met. We all met through gaming and, and, and we created this friendship, this circle that we all still talk on a daily basis. Um, you know, text, group chat, whatever Snapchat, whatever the case may be. Um,
Speaker: And when Nikki and I get married and we have our, our, our party or whatever, because we're running off to Louisiana to get married and then we're coming back and having a party in PA, like a big reception party type deal. That'll be the first time that the five of us are all in the same room at the same time. And that'll be the first time that.
Speaker: Like I said, I know, I know three of the guys I've met and hung out with them. Obviously one of me and my best friend of almost 20 years. The other two who lived right down the road from me.
Speaker: And then the two of them have never met my best friend. So I mean, this will be the first time that the five of us are all actually going to meet and see each other and hang out. But we know everything about our, like we know everything about each other. We know we've watched each other's kids grow up. We've watched each other have kids, you know, like not, you know what I mean? Like, you know, families grow and stuff like that. And we've been friends for like 10 years now.
Speaker: And that was just by a chance meeting because I only reason my best friend and I started playing online was so that we could still play video games together because I moved to South Carolina and he was in Ohio. And we still wanted to have our game time together because that was that was like our time. You know what I mean? And we started playing online and then we met three other guys that we all became super close with kind of like this podcasting thing. You know, Jeff and I started it. You know, we met Tony, but you know, no,
Speaker: No disrespect towards Tony, but it is what it is with Tony. He wasn't one of the real ones, quote unquote. But I have met a couple guys through TikTok and stuff like that. And then we met Jarvis. And then we met Mark and Brian through Jarvis, pushing those guys to, for whatever reason, interview us like we're important.
Speaker: Must be doing something right.
Speaker: So Mark said on it. Yeah. So, you know, I'm looking. Yeah. Like I'm looking forward to the five of us because we've been friends for over a decade now. So it's going to be weird. It's it's it's going to be interesting. But we value those friendships because those are the places where we as men, when we create these friendships, that's when we can be ourselves. And that's when in the down in the sand player about it is
Speaker: We still don't even talk to each other like we should. We still don't change on each other like we should. Well, I think even at some points, you know, it's still kind of that thing where you try and have that wall up a little bit. You know, you, you, you tell people what you want them to hear. And then you kind of go like, Oh, should I tell them this? And then you leave, it's kind of like you leave a little bit of bread crumbs. Yeah.
Speaker: And cool. You, you get me fucking Glick, Connor, all the boys together. Oh yeah. You better believe it's going to be TRU. Oh, you spelling is hard. It's hard, especially when you live in Minnesota. TRU BLE. Yep. Like Travis Trent once said, there's a little PR. Like, would you like a, would you like a ball again? Would you like to try again?
Speaker: Shut up, Blick. You know, I'm gonna be in a nursing home one day when I have my Vietnam flashbacks when I can't remember everything and I'm gonna have my Vietnam flashbacks and be like, fuck you, Blick. And someone's gonna be like, Glick's been gone for like years. Fuck whoever you are then. And when I, you know, succumb to my final time here on this planet, I'm gonna be like, you know what?
Speaker: Glick and Glick was right. We're all fucked. No, and that's what I said. And that's the other good thing about it is, you know, as much as I cherish the friendship that I have with those four guys and how long it's how long we've been friends and stuff like that.
Speaker: man, I'm going to sound like a complete asshole here that supports really not there, man. Cause like I'm doing something here and you would think like they would be excited. Uh, it would be excited for me. They would be, uh, you know, at least like, what can I share it out? And I got to give cam all the credit in the world cause cam cam used to.
Speaker: Uh, and Cam's done a lot of stuff behind the scenes, but, but it's like, I get excited for you guys when new things come up. And, and, you know, if it's shareable or whatever or relatable or, you know, I get excited for you guys and I want to, you know, uh, I don't know, uh, you know, let other people, you know, let other people know that I'm excited for you or I'm proud of you or whatever, but that's not there.
Speaker: And, and, and that's, and that's the thing. That's the other side. This is the downside. This is the downside is you can say that you give a fuck about somebody, you care about somebody, you support somebody. If you're, if you're, if you're not there to, to, to, to uplift them and to support them and to, and to share their, their growth and, and, and, and, and be a part of.
Speaker: their journeys or whatever, that's kind of, especially when they've done the opposite for you, they've been there, they've done that. They've, you know, obviously I don't want to put anybody's personal business out there, you know, but if they're doing something that, that should be put out there and shared or whatever, like guys, we have to be better about actually supporting our guy friends.
Speaker: or our friends or stuff like that. Yeah, I mean, I can say I'm one phone call away, but am I actually gonna answer the phone? Well, I mean, I'm actually gonna answer the phone, but are you gonna answer the phone if I call? If it's still o 'clock in the morning and I call, yeah, most people aren't. I still go crazy when you all call me Superman, you know? If I'm doing something new, if I'm,
Speaker: And a lot of, you know, the people who are close to me know that this is something that I was very passionate about, something that I wanted to do for a very long time. Where are you at? You do know, if you was doing this, I'd be there, you know, I'd be pushing it, sharing it, supporting it, at least dropping by and saying, hello, whatever the case may be. So that's where.
Speaker: That's where I'm a little bit different, you know, cause I support the hell out of people and I push people and I'm like, you know what? I want to help them. I want to help them better. Whatever their situation is, whatever they're striving for, whatever they're reaching for, whatever they're going for. If I can help in any way, shape or form, I want to be that guy.
Speaker: and swear getting burned comes from. I thought you said something. I didn't say anything. No. That's where that selective man hearing comes from. No, I'm. Because he doesn't hear me when I do speak. No, I'm just fucking deaf. Like I like. Yeah, Nikki, my wife can tell you the same thing.
Speaker: Yeah, no, it all honestly, like this year is basically fucking shot. You think his hearing is bad? Wait until you're married and then it becomes man hearing. You only want to hear what you want your wife to tell you like, hey, tonight you're gonna get lucky, food's at five, and you better have your ass in bed at a decent time. Right?
Speaker: Now, like I said, trust me, this, this, this, this year is basically fucking gone. You know, like even when we gave, if I put my headset on this year, I can hear you guys chat, but I can't hear any game. I can't hear anything from the game, but, uh, no, I mean, that's, that's what I said. A lot, a lot of, a lot of guys will say, if, if I'm eating, you're eating, but do you really mean that? Or.
Speaker: you know, are you, are you good at actually, are you actually going to, because that's, that's some big words to live up to. And it's not necessarily technically eating food. It's, it's if, if, if I'm doing something, I want to see you doing the same and I want to see you blowing up with me. You know what I mean? Um, that just doesn't really, that's just, that just
Speaker: You don't see it a whole lot. You hear it a whole lot. But as I've said a million times over, actions speak louder than words at the end of the day. Actually, I had a whole words of wisdom thing that said, you know, actions speak louder than words. Don't listen to what's coming out of their mouth. Listen to what they're doing. Doesn't make a whole lot of sense. But if you think about it, it makes sense.
Speaker: You know how hard it is to have a back and forth with yourself. Sorry, I wasn't eating or anything. I totally agree with you 100 % bro. This guy's fired. He's eating on my show. Get rid of him.
Speaker: Where's the code? Yeah, I don't know. At the end of the day, I feel like I should just pull up my phone and I can just have a conversation with myself. Like, this is Glick. And then I can be like, I'm Chris. And then just keep flipping my hat around. This is Glick. This is the champ. This is Glickfina. Yeah. We got multiple devices here. I'm just having a goddamn conversation with myself. Because at the end of the fucking day,
Speaker: You really pulled a Tony on me tonight, man. First you come in here with your TV up loud as hell. Then you just completely ignore the conversation. Like you never, you're allowed to eat on the show, dude. I don't fucking care. Yeah. But at the same time, like I don't need people to see him when I'm eating. Like, fuck, I'm poor enough. Who the hell cares that you eat and you're fucking eating, bro. That's all that matters. You know what? I could totally pull that off.
Speaker: I'm going to do that. I'm going to do it. I'm going to do a Friday night. Will you stop trying to get me kicked off other shows, Alyssa? Good God. I'm going to do that. You know what? I need a tablet, a cell phone, and a laptop. And I'm going to have three chairs, and it's all just going to be me talking to myself. God, the guy doesn't need another fucking ego boost, and you gave it to him, Alyssa. There you go.
Speaker: Nicki doesn't want to have a conversation, even if they are getting married. You can talk quite a bit. Nicki enjoys talking to me. She literally goes like this. Here, I'll pay you, Glick, to go away. I don't know if she enjoys talking to me right now. That's pretty. That's the one that we look and look and look and look for, but they only have one and it was not in her size. And I walked into it and I told the girls I need to find it. And as soon as I walked in there, I laid my hands on it and it was the exact same size I needed.
Speaker: It's perfect. And guess how much I got it for. Guess the original price. Guess the original price. 200. No. Well, it was originally 189. Okay. Guess how much I got it for. Go to. 140. Oh. Yeah. I wish it was $50. That's really pretty. No. No, Brian. You overbid. You are. The price is not right. Well, actually. Actually, I was told it was.
Speaker: $180. Tax and stuff. $200, which is what I sent her. And he's still over bid. Don't give him and fucking mark you under bid. Oh, we have the VIP. And well, we know where Brian's minds at. But no, like, I do agree with what you've been saying, like, and sorry that I, you know, me getting hungry, you know, not like, sorry.
Speaker: it's my show and I don't need a
Speaker: Don't worry, Glick, you're all my 13 reasons why, buddy. You know what? Actually, I think back when I said it, don't watch Jarvis' episodes on Sunday and don't go watch him on Twitch on Fridays. He fucking sucks. His show sucks. He's a terrible co -host. I don't know what I was thinking. Apparently, I should quit drinking because I make bad decisions like bringing that back. You make bad decisions even when you're not drinking. I've been talking about that.
Speaker: The drinking is just an excuse like I'm only kidding Jarvis. No, he's not Fucking as soon as we get off here, you're gonna get the fucking press release of I'm finally fired the most fired guy in podcasting history I'm glad that you think that I can do a press release Find the satspot release. There you go. I
Speaker: Just there's just a background green screen of the fucking forest and he's like it today. He's asked watch news Jarvis I need to after the shows over tonight. I need you to come into HR. We need to have a conversation But we'll finish the show and we'll have that conversation. No, like I said, yeah Basically, like I said, we have to HR is kind of an asshole
Speaker: Hey, I'm HR. Exactly. Why do you think I said it? Nikki, Nikki said she could be HR. Yeah, but then a lot of us would be like, yeah, let's get in trouble. And then we can talk to Nikki about why we hate the show. I give HR a ball back just so you know. Yeah, because there's support. The other ones didn't have that.
Speaker: I was going to break up with him. Yeah. This is coming from the guy that always tells me to not talk about getting fired. And yet he's the ball foster. That's fucking telling people how I get fired. Yeah. To wear a sweater over top of it, but that's cool. Yeah. Cause you know, people that fire people over Facebook messenger, you know, they're real people, you know, the, you know, they're real tough people. Yeah.
Speaker: No, yeah, basically, yeah, yeah, basically what I was saying with like, you know, I think a lot of times, you know, your, your quote unquote, bro relationships, or your manships, or whatever, like that. They're severely society or whatever, they're severely, severely undervalued and stuff like that. But also,
Speaker: Stop talking about it and be about it. If you have that type of friendship, like don't fucking talk about it, man. Like really be about it. Like if you say you would do anything or you would support them or if I'm eating there, like, like be, be for real about it. Because I think it's one of the things in, in, in those types of friendships that are lacking today. Uh, you know, it's easy to make a TikTok video or an Instagram real or a Facebook real or, or to come on a podcast and be like,
Speaker: or whatever the case may be, they'd be like, Oh, Jarvis is my boy. And if he's eaten, if I'm eating easy, you know what I mean? I'm, I'm, but, and then in actuality, you know, you know, we're, we're, we're going to a state house and I've been joining a big old fat Porter house and watching him look at me from the window, you know, or as I said earlier, he could order off the kid's menu and get a,
Speaker: Girl, she's a French fry. Hello, darkness, my old friend. Stay classy. Fire on my messenger. And that's the other thing, Brian. It is the other thing. Like, come on, man. You'd be better than that. Like, really? Like, that's like, that's like breaking up with somebody through Snapchat or a text message. That has actually happened to me too.
Speaker: Travis is frozen. Facts on facts. Wow. Like God, I want to have these guys on so bad. How that's the way I'm supposed to be to my terrible. I want to, I want to, I want to have those guys on. So again, this is me being a friend. This is me. Like you guys are my bros. Like you guys are my guys. You know what I mean? And I'm pissed that this happened to you guys, but I'm also happy that it happened because
Speaker: We didn't need that network anyway. And you let go of some, some, some talented ass motherfuckers and now they're running with us. Like not only did I want to fucking break you down, but I also want to thank you. Like it's like that. Like I want to shake your hand, but punch you in the face mentality because you're a fucking scumbag, but thank you.
Speaker: Yeah, exactly. It's just it's a scary thing to do. And now, and now like, cool. Because now we get that now I've met you guys and we're we become friends. And now I get to support you guys and I get to back you guys and hopefully, you know, we get to we get to grow a new network together. And, you know, like I said, the only rule is is
Speaker: Brian's got to get a red wig and get chesticles or breast implants. That's the only rule I have. Yeah, Brian, no one else. Yeah, that's just because Mark wouldn't fire him for a redhead with big boobs. So we came to a compromise. I agree. You know what? That's one of my phrases. I believe in that thoroughly. Yeah, I believe in it.
Speaker: Everything happens for a reason. One door closes, another one opens, and nine times out of ten that other door doesn't open. It's so glicked. Does that mean like, you know, you're the team owner and you have draft picks and I'm like the first draft pick, you know? Like, first overall.
Speaker: No, like I like I like I already had a Super Bowl caliber team and we're like, uh, we need a water boy. Yeah, I got your water boy hanging buddy. Like like we just won the Super Bowl and and then we got the 30 second pick and it was like, I mean, I already got a pretty solid squad. I could use a water boy. Stop making fun of me.
Speaker: I mean wait until you see him. I bet he's gonna be beautiful. I feel like Brian could pull off you know a red -headed wig and some you know implants. That's probably what Mark's thinking. How big should we go Emma?
Speaker: What a buzzkill. Nobody asked her anyways. This is a decision made by Mark and I. It's happening. Hey, Mark. Mark, I've seen your text message. There is a free version of Zencaster. It's called, well, there used to be at least. It's still there. It's the one where you get ads. It's something. But no, like that's that's the thing at the end of the day, like I don't care if I'm
Speaker: the first overall pick or the eighth overall pick. I feel it's weird. Yeah. We went down that road Saturday night. Yeah, if you want to see what Blick looks like without a beard, he looks kind of like Farvo from Super Troopers. Like something like that. I'm handsome. And his favorite restaurant's the one with the macaroni paintings all over. I'm handsome with or without the beard, bitch. And you're jealous.
Speaker: You shave that beard, Nicky would be like, who is this handsome devil? You're jealous because you can't grow a beard. I mean, I can down here. I could I could shave this off tomorrow and it'd be and by the time Saturday show, I'd still have more facial hair than you. Facial hair and easy. But no, like me and Mark. Oh, good God.
Speaker: No, just Brian. That was the decision that was made. Yeah, just Brian. We're no, all of us aren't dressing up. We're just taking turns on Brian. What? But no, I mean, in the hindsight of things like till Austin, once we knew that we were going to be a part of this new network. I mean, like I told Mark, I'm like, you'd have to be
Speaker: You'd have to be crazy not to join it. I mean, we're already brothers in a way already. And yeah, we got burned, but you know what? At the end of the day, it's so different than what it used to be. Brian is re -flaring us in the chat. No, and ultimately at the end of the day. Yeah, I just felt woo. That's all I want us to do is just support each other. Just be there, help each other grow. I mean, like, you know, let's,
Speaker: We all have the same goals at the end of the day. And that's what we should, and in all honesty, whether there's a network or not, I mean, there's a lot of people out there and in these broadcasting streamers or some people call themselves podcasters, but they're just streamers. Let's be honest. But they want to puff their chest out and talk about, oh, you know, if only we all came together, but
Speaker: If you're gonna say it fucking lead by example bro, like don't talk about it be about it lead by example Don't fucking pick and choose You know if you're gonna tell somebody you're gonna fucking support them No, we can fucking support like like for really like real world be there You know how much of a mind fuck that is to put all you to put so much time and energy and again it Fucking quote -unquote reach around
Speaker: to go back to what we were talking to earlier, you put so much time and goddamn energy into supporting somebody who's not giving the same energy back to you. And then you start overthinking things and then you start to get nervous and you don't want to branch out. You don't want to, you know, and in all honesty, that's why the quote unquote network was just me starting new shows. And then Jeff wanted to do a show. So
Speaker: But I mean, the network was me hosting three different shows. A music show, a men's mental health show, because I didn't trust anybody else. I didn't want to go down that road again. I'll do it on my own, because I do everything on my own. OK, so down by everybody else. Exactly. So again, to reach around and touch on the conversation. Hailey did not get a black brown dress. That's Hailey's dress. That's cute.
Speaker: Well, we'll have to find that good game streamer. I mean, we don't have to, but he's like our special needs little brother, so it's I guess we kind of do have to. Yeah, and now my Twitch channel is gone. There we go.
Speaker: Now, um, you have a good streamer. His name is Glick and he hosts three different shows. Yeah, but you're not a game streamer. You're just a streamer. Fucking game streaming is so goddamn overrated. It really is. Like, I'm sorry. It's, I don't want to watch somebody else play a fucking game that I can just go play myself. Facts on facts. But no, like.
Speaker: And plus, you know, if you like watching wrestling, there is going to be a new wrestling Federation, uh, where, you know, we're going to have our first pay -per -view and probably half of us are going to be there. There are good streamers out there, but that's because they make it fun and they're doing other things and they're conversating and stuff like that. A lot of, a lot of Twitch gamers just go on there and game. If you're going to be alive and you're going to be doing that first and foremost, you have to be interactive. You have to.
Speaker: with the people who are watching your live and you have to do your best to interact with all of them and not just ending subscribers demanding gifts and and and only doing live live streams for goals like that you're not real man you're not sincere I don't I don't I don't want that you know I wanna I wanna somebody who
Speaker: enjoys what they're doing and is having fun with it. Um, that's the biggest thing about going live for me. If you're, if you're, if you're, if you're a live streamer of any sorts, you have to be able to not only a create an interesting conversation, but also still be able to engage your fans. And I don't care if you've got one person in there or a hundred thousand people in there, you got to do your best to keep up with it. I used to go on Periscope and it was,
Speaker: regularly and this is again back on the support thing people don't people don't support you know they don't they don't they don't give a damn um you know regularly i would have anywhere from 500 to a thousand people and i would be carrying on 20 different conversations at one time and be drinking the entire time
Speaker: And that was one of the things people said, like, how in the hell are you carrying on all these fucking conversations while you drink like a fucking fish? Now none of those, none of those viewers or anything moved over from TikTok. And, and you know, when I started doing this, that TikTok following didn't even move over from it. And so I literally started, I've started from scratch every time because all those quote unquote supporters,
Speaker: There's a very small handful of people who have been around for my periscope days. And I'm grateful for them. I love them, sons of bitches. I'm glad they're still around. Well, yeah, I mean, at the end of the day, we wouldn't be anywhere without the people that watch us. And we love having everyone that watches us.
Speaker: Facts on facts, you know, uh, there's a lot of people out there that probably want to watch it, want to watch us fail. And you know, at the same time, you're still watching us. So, okay. We, we get it, Brian, your son -in -law decimates and cod. Okay. We get it. There's other games in the world. I can, no one cares. I'd, I'd embarrass his son -in -law. He don't want to smoke.
Speaker: This is the only thing Brian will ever talk like there's other games I know that's hard for you to hear Brian, but Brian's like my son -in -law decimates What's his average kills? They're like four and a half
Speaker: Yeah, kind of like Brian, who's talking all this shit to me, like, Hey, you know, you're gonna come in here and you're gonna do really good, Steven. Next thing you know, he's at the bottom of leaderboard and I'm 30. He said you were gonna do really good. He was supporting you and uplifting you and you're like, No, yeah, okay. Yeah, Brian fucking support and Eeyore, man. I mean, hey, you're like, you're like, you're like Eeyore if he was psychotic. Facts on facts. The original Eeyore was mildly retarded and had depression.
Speaker: You're just like a fucking Eeyore on crack. That's super, no fucking reason. I wish my fucking teammates would do something. Like, bro. I mean, hey, if they're going to be teammates, they got to fucking hold up their end of the bargain. Don't they not? I mean, I'm nine times out of 10. We're carried by you. We get it. I'm carrying the whole team and you don't see me saying anything. I'm just like, hey.
Speaker: Yeah, looks probably after he's done going like, good God, my fucking teammates are dog water. I got a fire Jarvis. No, no, no, man. Mark and I talked about it quite a bit. Brian and Brian's been there too. It just, it's, we're just gaming for me is, and that's, you know, that's why this last, this last week and, you know, shout out to Nikki for actually letting me game and not giving me hell for it. Um,
Speaker: Gaming for me is a way to relax, is a game for me, or is a way for me to, you know, not worry about all the other bullshit that's in my head all the time. I can get on there and I can game. And that's, and in all honesty, that's one of the reasons I stopped gaming with people because the guys that I was gaming with were super negative and super tonguesing. And it was just like, I just want to get on here and relax at the end of the week, or at the end of the day, I want to play
Speaker: you know, three or four games and relax unwind from the day the kids have gone to bed, you know, whatever the case may be. And I'm not saying this about you Jarvis. I'm just like, like, like the guys that I used to game with were like try hards and like, I love Rick. I love Rick to death, but.
Speaker: like dude came in there and I was just like, I could never game with him. I couldn't, I could not game with Rick on a regular basis. I love the guy to death, but I like, I can't, I don't stop trying to be the smartest, best guy in the fucking room and shut the hell up and play the fucking game. Nobody cares if you play on hardcore, nobody cares that you're sweating and grinding camos like,
Speaker: That's why I stopped playing with other people and I and I just gained by myself. Well, yeah, that's that's like someone that you know bitches and moans about Texas Chainsaw Massacre being hard and yeah, it's like at the end of the day. Let's be honest, Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Seven and Dawn by Deadlight and Seven Days Till You're Dead and and and and and and and and those games are those games suck.
Speaker: So down there, Brian, OK? Go play your Call of Duty since that's what you want to play. Because that was my little escape. That was my little way to unwind. And on the weekends, I do like to game a little bit more. But not only was I just playing by myself, but I was also just literally getting on there, getting my dailies, maybe play around as zombies.
Speaker: Maybe zombies is fun. It's just all the other people on multi -player that think it's like life that they have to be better than everyone. Yeah. Maybe play, maybe play a couple of games of multi -player, but that's, that's, that's all I was doing. And that's been the nice thing. And I told Nikki and I told market, I think I've said it to Mark and Brian as well. Um, yeah. Right. Uh, you know, I, I, I actually look forward to seeing you guys online because it's like,
Speaker: Oh, I get to go online. Not only do I get to go online and play the game, but I also get to chitchat with my friends. You know, I miss that because that's what I used to do. And then, you know, just like gaming is meant to be fun. It's, it's, it's gaming. It's not that serious, you know, like hell, sometimes we're playing different games, but we're still in a party chitchat. Like last night, Jarvis, you and I hung out for a little bit longer. You, I think you were watching TV and I was playing evil West, but we were still just chitchat. You had that, you had that, um,
Speaker: that whole conversation. And that's what I like, you know? Yeah, I mean, that's why like, there's people that play video games, because they, you know, have no life on one of them. But like, at the end of the day, I'll play games like Grounded, where I can really shit. Well, the Twitch channel may disappear, you know, but the Jarvis Demon still around. Yeah, no, I mean, it's an again,
Speaker: It's, it's, it's, it's a way to unplug and it's a way to, and you know, it's beneficial to our mental health and, and you know, and I, and I say men specifically because yes, there are women out there and starts tomorrow, boys. Uh, trust me, I know. And I can't wait to see what the matter is because I've already got my 1100 coins.
Speaker: I know, like you're saying, that's why I do a lot of building games. I know on Game Pass this month, Construction Simulator is going to be coming out. So I'm going to be playing that. Evil West. I love Evil West.
Speaker: like i never thought like i would love a like legitimately sit down and play a video game but like i like i told you about evil west like it's like i don't really know what it's all about but at the same time you get to shoot shit it's kind of like doom in the life
Speaker: I was telling Nikki, I don't even think she cares when I talk about video games. I don't even think she knows what I'm talking about, but she at least pretends to listen. I would love to see Nikki play like Cod with us, like zombies. I could see her running away like, I want to get out of here. Fuck this. She has no interest in video games, I don't think. Oh, come on, Nikki. You know, you're with a gamer, dude. You got to, you know, come on.
Speaker: The downfall with Not all But there is a majority of the female gamers that are out there. Hey, they're super toxic and be like and that's so and that's the other thing I don't really care about the twitch community in that and so I don't I mean we go live on twitch, but no honesty I'm debating if i'm gonna even keep it on twitch
Speaker: I mean, yeah. And that's the thing, like, the only reason I got back into Twitch gaming is because I had a friend of mine who was like, hey, you know, we'll support each other and, you know, all that stuff. That's why I say most of the people that get me on their show to be like Coase or something or to do like a game channel, they know the right words to say. Well, and once it happens, it's like, oh, God, but a fucking every joke fucking counters punch me from the left.
Speaker: I'm the only one who does it. Yeah, I wonder who said that in my Twitch stream recently. Yeah, it's all slick. No, like I said, you know, I'm honestly, I'm about to take this show off of Twitch and just start putting it on X.
Speaker: I just I just don't care for Twitch and Twitch is such a such a well it's like tick tock at the end of the day it's it's a fucking it's a shit show it really is such a it's such a bullshit platform and and then it did you you you you everybody's worried about the affiliate which at the end of the day most of these ass clowns are that have the affiliate I could
Speaker: I can easily blow out of the water content wise. So it's just like, why am I even here? Well, that's like I said, you know, you had, you had three or four good shows where everybody pushed you to get affiliated. And then once you got your affiliate, there's nobody around. So I just, I just don't care for Twitch. I mean, I did the Twitch gaming thing a little bit. Oh, hi buddy. Love you. I'll see you in the morning. Back to school. Uh,
Speaker: you know, I didn't switch gaming thing and it was like, I didn't even care to be like, I didn't, I didn't even, I do it because I was playing a goddamn game. I'm trying to play a game. I don't, I'm not going to sit here and be like, Oh, Oh, what's up? What's up? What's up? Jimmy crack corn and I don't care. She was growing the Holy cornfield. How are you doing? Thank you for the follow up.
Speaker: Yeah. The backseat gamers are telling you, oh, you missed this. It's like, fuck up. Let me play. Oh, Glick's got to go take that. They tease everyone. But no, like, seriously, people in the world today, they they literally will sit there and be like, oh, hey, I stream this. It's like at the end of the day, I'll stream whatever the fuck I want to stream, you know,
Speaker: pardon my line, sorry Twitch, but you know, at the end of the day, it's like, there's so many great content creators that are still trying to get affiliate. And when they're, they literally will say, you know, hey, you know, I'm doing this for the fun. And that's the way it should be. You know, yeah, one day they may get paid or whatnot, but at the end of the day, if you're not doing it because you love it, why are you doing it?
Speaker: And that's what happened to me is I've seen so many people on that platform that used to always say, oh, I'm doing this because I love it and it's so fun and all that. And then they come in your streams and they fucking bitch and whine about why they hate their channel, why people aren't supporting them, why they follow everyone and everyone won't follow them. Let's say the follow for follow thing is such a fucking. It's a bullshit excuse because you follow someone. It does not magically mean they're going to follow you.
Speaker: You're welcome, Brian. Hey, right back at you, brother. Well, the friendship part. I'll tell you Thursday, great show. We may have to watch on Thursday for it to be a great show, maybe. Well, I don't know. We don't want to inflate your egos. I did have the restraining put on me for Thursday. I'm not allowed to be in the comments. We've already gotten handcuffed enough. Yeah.
Speaker: I mean, I'm just saying I'm not allowed to be on the show. Not allowed to watch the show. Not allowed to comment. You see how big they get? We literally shout them out and you know, nope, you guys can't be on there. You know, fuck you guys. You know, like, God, nonsensical nonsense. Never heard of them. Yeah. That's why I'm going to come into the comments. This is not good.
Speaker: Yeah. This is not Glick and I'm not from nonsensical nonsense. The same, not Jerry Vichy project. Oh, you didn't say that. Mark said that. Mark told me specifically as he was teabagging my dead body on Call of Duty.
Speaker: This is why you're not invited. And this is why you're not allowed in the chat. I love that one guy that got like 15 kills on me. I got one kill and I'm over there teabagging my corpse like it was the other way around. It's the other way around. It's like, good God. No, of course. Of course, I'll be there. Call of Duty turns people into weird fuckers. Like at the end of the day, Call of Duty is the reason why people do drugs.
Speaker: No, I do want to, I do want to say this before we wrap the show up because we're about at that time, but no, you know, for me, gaming gaming has always been that, um, you know, it's, it's a way to relax. It's a way to unwind. Um, that is, it's always been really good for my, my, my mental health for me personally. Um, I don't have a lot of escapes or anything like that. Uh, so it's, it's, it's tough to, to do the things that you used to do, you know, when you.
Speaker: When you have three kids and when they're always here, you can't just, I can't just go for, I can't just dip out and go for a car ride some days and whatever. But, you know, gaming, gaming became kind of became that, that, that, that mental break for me. And I gave him because I enjoy it. I don't, I don't, I don't try to be the best guy. You know, I have an absolute dog shit game. I'm going to be making fun of myself the whole time. I mean, I'm also the guy who's been running around the last two days going choppy choppy.
Speaker: So that's just anything about how serious I take gaming. I got excited because I got a goddamn sword on Call of Duty and ran around in every map and every game going choppy, choppy, choppy, choppy. At least you weren't the guy with the fricking Billy club going like respect my authority. Yeah. Yeah. You know, so it is, it is a nice escape. And that's what video games have always been for people that enjoy them.
Speaker: And, and, and we can't take them so serious at the end of the day. We can't take life so serious. And remember, like I said earlier, yeah, we're going to have those moments. We're going to overthink downside of overthinking is it plants those seeds and that damn train gets going a hundred thousand miles an hour and there's no fucking breaks, but it does plant those seeds that lead to more, to, to, to, to worse things.
Speaker: You know, the, the, the self -doubt, the, the talking, talking negatively to yourself, the, the inside. Yeah. You know, um, you know, and then it leads to the anxiety and the depression and everything like that. And just remember, it's okay to visit. You're not moving in and, and, and,
Speaker: You know, there's a support system out there, whether you guys think it or not, at the end of the day, there are people in here that damn, there are people who, who, who truly care about what you're going through and how you feel. We just, as men, we just have to be better about actually, uh, reaching out because I know I'm the worst. I know I'm the fucking worst. I'm the biggest offender to the point where I've got Jeff and Connor yelling at me going,
Speaker: What the fuck is going on, bro? Like, why have you not reached out or whatever? So because we're, we're, we're at the low people on the totem pole and then there's click. That's why. Yeah. Remember just, uh, there's a support system out there. You just have to be willing to, uh, to accept that support. So, uh, do want to get ready and wrap this bad boy up.

Speaker: As always, this has kind of become the closure for this show. Why? A, I love the band. B, I love this fucking song. And if it doesn't just wrap up mental health in a nutshell, I don't know what does, but it is shines that shinedowns save me. Plus it also makes my life super easy because I have an intro song and an outro song. So then I only need two songs for break.
Speaker: But no, I do love this song and it does have a very powerful meaning to it. So your shine down will save me.
Speaker: And I've got a spoon I live in a hallway with no doors and no windows
Speaker: And what went wrong Couldn't handle forgiveness

Speaker: fucking enjoy it man and you're fucking welcome because I introduced you to it so suck it anyways we're we're done we're done we'll wrap this up just you know the drill words of wisdom inspirational thoughts or a quote you would like to leave the the masses with it's like chicken soup for the soul but it's not so my quote this week
Speaker: is overthinking the art of creating new problems out of ones that never existed in the first place. It's kind of like playing Call of Duty with Brian. Or being peer pressured into buying the game. That's for not inviting me, Brian, you cocksucker.
Speaker: Love you, Brian. We're just kidding. We're having fun. I didn't mean what I said. I love Brian. Brian. Love you very much. See, see you on Thursday. You know, for us not worthy enough, you know, we'll see you. We'll see you on Thursday. We'll be like, we're not worthy. We're not worthy. As, as always, you know, you know me, I always have a couple ever thinking it's just a painful reminder.
Speaker: that you care way too much even when you shouldn't. Facts on facts. Also, this might become a mainstay. Five things to quit, ladies and gentlemen. Trying to please everyone, fearing change, living in the past, putting yourself down, and overthinking. I think we should all try to
Speaker: try to try to reach those goals. And last but not least, I told you guys this was going to be a mainstay. I really like this, especially for men's mental health. And for this show, a successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with bricks that others have thrown at him. Take that how you will. Thank you guys for listening. We will see you next time.
Speaker: Got to hit that button and now it's.
