Impaulsive with Logan Paul - LOGAN PAUL TALKS 2018 LIFE LESSONS WITH ACCESS HOLLYWOOD - IMPAULSIVE EP. 15

00:00:00.000 Hey, what's up? I'm Tony Gonzalez.

00:00:01.540 And I'm October Gonzalez.

00:00:02.940 But you can call me Toby.

00:00:04.000 We want you to join us on our new podcast,

00:00:06.660 No Safe Words with October and Tony Gonzalez.

00:00:08.960 Where we get real about marriage, parenthood, sex, divorce,

00:00:12.520 and all the nitty gritty stuff we all think about.

00:00:14.980 But just don't say it out loud.

00:00:16.060 You're probably just going to be some rich guy

00:00:17.460 and he's going to whisk you away.

00:00:19.760 This is awkward.

00:00:20.840 Listen to No Safe Words with October and Tony Gonzalez

00:00:23.640 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast,

00:00:26.580 or wherever you get your podcasts.

00:00:29.340 You're not incurable.

00:00:30.460 You're not broken.

00:00:31.500 You're having a normal human experience, and we have a solution for that.

00:00:34.820 And that solution is our podcast, Free Therapy.

00:00:37.220 I'm Ben.

00:00:37.760 And I'm Kevin.

00:00:38.460 And every week, we talk to leading therapists in the country about relationships, work, family dynamics, and all of life's headaches.

00:00:44.540 If you're trying to get rid of anxiety, you're actually fueling more anxiety.

00:00:50.080 So listen to Free Therapy, because therapy is expensive.

00:00:52.600 But our podcast is free!

00:00:54.180 Listen to Free Therapy with Ben and Kevin on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

00:01:00.140 Do you love golf? If so, you should listen to Three Putt Bogey.

00:01:04.260 I'm Chuck Bryant from the Stuff You Should Know podcast.

00:01:06.560 And I'm Adam Pranica from a couple of embarrassing hit Star Trek podcasts.

00:01:10.440 And each week on Three Putt Bogey, we're going to get into the bunker and get to the bottom of what is just so alluring and frustrating about the most beautiful game in the world.

00:01:19.060 So whether you're someone who pipes it on the driving range, but freezes up on the tee box.

00:01:23.260 or misses that three-foot putt when everything's on the line.

00:01:26.380 We're there to laugh about it with you on 3-Putt Bogey,

00:01:29.320 a podcast about two mid-handicappers, one great shot,

00:01:32.520 and the three-putt that spoils it all.

00:01:34.660 You can listen to it now on the iHeartRadio app,

00:01:37.360 Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

00:01:43.520 There are thousands of podcasts that can tell you how to better yourself.

00:01:48.160 Get Worse with Kyle Pru is not one of those podcasts.

00:01:51.060 So if you're interested in getting thinner, going to therapy, starting peptides, setting boundaries, taking supplements, making your better, getting closure, then I would humbly recommend other podcasts.

00:02:00.580 If you're interested in blackmail, love bombing, cloning yourself, or getting revenge, then we've got a little something something for a dastardly individual like you.

00:02:08.880 Listen to Get Worse with Kyle Pru on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

00:05:25.400 that piece you're running uh-huh what's the narrative what do you mean what are you are

00:05:31.140 you trying to like what are you trying to do you're trying to do bro what's your motive what's

00:05:34.280 my motive for what just because this year's been going pretty good for me i feel pretty i think i

00:05:37.740 think the question should be asking the producer would i mean honestly you should be asking yourself

00:05:41.800 it's an interview right so you have you have all of the the control to to really control your

00:05:48.680 narrative we're not i mean access hollywood access our show is not one to paint people in a way

00:05:54.880 that is not real or in line with who they actually are so it's up to me to paint a good image and

00:06:02.340 picture of myself up to you to paint a true image you just give him the canvas and honestly i'm just

00:06:08.360 looking at the campus with you you know what i'm saying and i don't i don't necessarily give you

00:06:12.060 anything like i didn't set this does she no i think that's like again that's all on you you

00:06:16.700 we're in your space this is your domain i you know and i really appreciate you coming here by

00:06:21.440 the way i said mike i was like yo he's doing the interview like on my turf that's ballsy

00:06:24.740 ballsy yeah we do interview we do interviews i mean everywhere i mean i've been in much more like

00:06:30.900 uh uh what is it stress high pressure high pressure high stress i'm not stressed out are

00:06:36.700 you stressed out yeah you shouldn't be i am he's scared i can see his hair standing up on his arms

00:06:41.440 he's nervous i'm as cool as a cucumber chilling like a villain um do you want to know why i don't

00:06:50.380 know if you can tell i sort of have a um my publicist is not gonna like this here we go

00:06:58.360 just like i sort of have like a a vendetta like i have some beef with like traditional hollywood

00:07:03.080 okay um it's nothing not nothing against you i just like i'm always tentative like when i say

00:07:11.020 like what's your narrative i'm what are you gonna intro this piece on which by the way is coming

00:07:18.280 out tomorrow if you guys want to watch it on access hollywood what does the intro look like

00:07:21.940 and what does the outro look like like is it going to be um controversial you surrounded by like like

00:07:26.300 some shit like that like controversial youtube like the the times i've heard controversial

00:07:30.780 youtuber like well i think i brought that up with you in the in the interview controversial 0.97

00:07:34.540 youtuber was an interesting uh moniker or interesting title to give you but i think that

00:07:40.040 some a lot of people saw the things that you were posting and thought they they are controversial

00:07:44.640 yeah i guess it are you you kind of are controversial yeah i really am you know what i'm

00:07:48.500 saying yeah and so but and so but i also understand like the the the desire to want to move on the

00:07:53.840 desire to want to kind of repent and and and and uh rebrand advance not just but i mean rebrand is

00:08:01.200 it comes with a commodity right i'm talking about your life i'm talking are you as a person yeah we

00:08:06.540 were here talking about impulsive we were talking about videos you've done but if you look at the

00:08:11.120 questions i asked you i was wanting to get to know you as a person i know and not even necessarily as

00:08:15.860 a as a content producer because i think that the thing that will um uh be forever right that will

00:08:24.440 that will last longer than the content you produce or the the reputation you have now is the person

00:08:29.500 you are and the people and the way that people know you to be right yeah which is why in our

00:08:35.040 interview i iterated and this was truthful uh that that this year the focus has been on me 0.87

00:08:40.480 yeah fans you know where the vlogs we want more vlogs yeah that shit poisoned me so i'm taking 0.89

00:08:46.620 easy on the vlogs bear with me for now you got impulsive the number one podcast in the world by 0.91

00:08:50.280 the way like and subscribe but tell me how old how old are you now 23 how old were you when you

00:08:54.840 first started posting videos 10 and you've been posting videos on at least a weekly basis since

00:09:01.220 what age 10 so you think about a young guy who is growing up on camera yeah you know what i mean

00:09:09.380 in control of a lot because he's you know it's videos you put out but it's a it's a it's hard

00:09:15.820 growing up period you know let alone within the age of social media let alone in a way that and

00:09:21.120 this is one of the the questions i ask you you produce content you also get paid to produce

00:09:26.440 content i wanted to know if that felt like pressure to you if the if the word youtube star

00:09:31.680 was pressure for you yeah and by the way you'll see in the interview tomorrow what my answer was

00:09:37.160 to that um looking for my seat thing but um yeah it's not pressure i love i'm fortunate like i

00:09:42.720 yeah again um made pretty clear like i'm fortunate i'm blessed and there's no no pressure so far

00:09:48.360 but um what's your demographic who's gonna watch that episode well that's gonna be i don't think

00:09:53.160 it's gonna be your typical audience i know i know i know which is here's what i imagine my mom

00:09:58.700 emptying the dishwasher yeah it's like i don't know 7 45 eastern standard time okay and and

00:10:04.680 access hollywood's playing in the back like on a little tv in the corner by the microwave she's

00:10:08.680 like this is great great news about 7 45 yeah like around that time she's just emptying the 0.97

00:10:13.480 dishwasher she's like damn it where's your father with the freaking bread all right man we get it 0.95

00:10:18.140 the picture has been painted that's the demographic in my mind that's one that's one demographic 0.99

00:10:24.220 right y'all uh y'all bleep swear words i was cussing a lot it depends you did swear a lot 0.99

00:10:29.100 i said penis too you did say penis can you like it within the first 30 seconds i know it tends to 1.00

00:10:34.120 happen it's my brand i guess i am controversial fuck damn you hate to see it um okay there aren't 1.00

00:10:42.040 many days that go by in which that word is not not yet not said but it's usually not penis though 0.99

00:10:47.440 why why this might be a question for you but maybe you're a vehicle for her uh why did you guys

00:10:55.860 access hollywood decide to give me your time and your demographic is uh partially the exact people

00:11:04.960 who reprimand the shit out of me and disdain everything i do so why are you giving me a

00:11:09.980 platform to speak other than my own well here's the question i'll ask you in response to that

00:11:14.440 why did you apologize because i was sorry okay so i think that people who heard that apology

00:11:22.680 are interested in knowing if you follow that apology up with any sort of action that

00:11:28.740 represents sincerity in that apology. And I think that people who look at you as a content

00:11:35.060 producer potentially for their kids, whether you want to be or not, I think that people who look

00:11:39.320 at you as a content producer out here, it just in the ethos, hold you to a certain level of

00:11:45.320 responsibility, right? And so our audience, I think, you know, I can't necessarily speak for

00:11:51.140 why our executive producer agreed or why any of our second producers agreed but i can tell you why

00:11:55.300 i wanted to come to the interview please because i wanted to get to know who you were but we took

00:12:00.280 we took we took we took a moment a series of choices you made in your life and we blew it up

00:12:08.220 and when i say we i don't just mean hollywood i mean people so social media socially right we blew

00:12:15.960 it up and we dissected and we made judgment calls based on uh the choices you made the videos you

00:12:23.280 posted the way you responded to comments and to critique and i think this is this for me was an

00:12:28.620 opportunity to get to know you a little better when i say get to know you i don't mean comprehensively

00:12:33.980 or like you totally in 20 minutes that's impossible but certainly get a a glimpse into your personality

00:12:40.280 and a glimpse into your thought process frame of mind you got it you got a glimpse i will emphasize

00:12:45.120 that word and i think snapshot you got a glimpse sure sure it's hard to dive in in in 20 minutes

00:12:50.860 but then let me reciprocate and ask you how do you know i'm not putting on a front and that my

00:12:55.040 publicist feeds me every line that i gave to you guys so here's the benefit of um

00:12:59.920 or i guess that the the issue with you not knowing who i am like i am good at what i do

00:13:06.880 because i read that right i'm good at what i do i'm an actor though the fourth most googled by

00:13:12.720 the way you are but it didn't say the best actor facts it said the most googled actor i'm not the

00:13:20.960 best i need i need work you know what i'm saying watch the sending two on youtube what he said 0.99

00:13:26.380 what he's saying is he could see right through that bullshit if you try to know you think it's 0.98

00:13:30.000 bullshit like no i think i think you are i think you are a young guy who made a series of of public 0.99

00:13:36.960 very public mistakes and misread the response to those mistakes and i think unfortunately 0.99

00:13:43.840 we're the time that we live in now um you kind of it's difficult for anybody to make mistakes

00:13:50.460 right you see things that happen online and people pile on and it's a wrap like their whole life has

00:13:55.360 to change you know what i um came to the conclusion of but i also think that some of us need to wake

00:14:02.960 up and know that the things that we do, the things that we say, uh, especially when, when we're in

00:14:09.340 the forefront, we're, we're held to a level of responsibility, whether we like it or not.

00:14:14.560 And I'm hoping that at some point we reach a point where there is space to learn from our mistakes

00:14:22.920 and to repent for, and I don't mean like go to Jesus and pray, but I mean, change your course

00:14:28.740 of action because you've learned from your mistakes. That was the question that I asked

00:14:32.460 you and that to me when you said if you want to ask me a direct question any question i'll answer

00:14:38.700 it what was the question i asked you i i honestly forget i asked you what has been the lesson this

00:14:44.040 last year what has been the situation the thing you have learned which biggest lesson which by

00:14:48.800 the way creators friends everyone like watch the interview i'm gonna i'm gonna plug your show right

00:14:54.480 now watch the interview to hear my answer to that question i think it's the most important thing i

00:14:58.280 said 7 30 in bc there we go um okay so you know what you know what i came to the revelation of

00:15:03.340 uh the other day because 2018 has been sort of a shit storm of of mistakes and controversies

00:15:12.980 and scandals blah blah me included like literally i just kicked off the year with some like some 0.72

00:15:18.420 horrible shit i think for whatever reason in my life whatever went wrong when it went wrong 0.92

00:15:25.880 I was unfortunately capable of making the mistake that I did it was the perfect storm of my 1.00

00:15:32.060 upbringing where I was and what I was doing at that point in my life that everything just came

00:15:40.220 together and taught me the biggest lesson of my life um you would say that was the biggest lesson

00:15:46.260 of your life I would did it come at the biggest cost to you or would you say that was like the

00:15:52.260 biggest lesson it's almost like i don't even want to call it a cost man because like it to me it was

00:15:56.520 so it was so necessary and it's unfortunate that it had to happen that way but i honestly believe

00:16:01.520 it did have to happen i will say this about the difference between this interview and the

00:16:06.300 interview that you gave me is that you seem far more comfortable now than you did in our interview

00:16:11.640 yeah i and honestly because i i think it's what i kind of expressed before it's like i sort of

00:16:15.700 have a vendetta with uh traditional hollywood it makes me very nervous to put myself on a medium 0.60

00:16:20.780 that's not my own and yeah um because i just i don't know bro i've been painted like a shithead

00:16:25.480 this whole year as rightfully so because i've done some real like hold on so here's my question 0.82

00:16:30.300 so you when you say like i've been painted like a shithead and rightfully so like can you how does

00:16:36.580 that conversation how does that sentence or that the how do you move beyond that statement right 0.59

00:16:42.420 because it's like at some point you have to say i think i would think perhaps you'd have to say

00:16:48.460 huh am i a shithead yeah which is yes or like do i want to be yeah known and and uh portrayed as

00:16:56.560 and and likened to or do i want to be something better can i be something better and or more 0.81

00:17:02.800 and listen there's another question there too and there's another point and that's how the public

00:17:07.940 kind of responds to the painting that he's making right and so some of the stuff that wasn't talked

00:17:14.100 about today was a a mental health awareness and and suicide awareness documentary that got how

00:17:19.760 many views for 30 something million 30 something million or the you know hundreds of thousands of

00:17:25.680 dollars that was donated and or the or the direct messages that were answered and all the positive

00:17:30.080 impacts that were made as a result of this mistake yeah and by the way a lot of positive

00:17:35.460 impacts that were being made prior to that mistake happening make a wish foundation all of the good

00:17:41.160 things as a society i think we need to look inward at the magnifying glass we use to make a spectacle

00:17:50.940 out of the mistakes and negative actions that people like logan make or or anybody else and

00:17:55.460 make a little bit more noise about the positive things and so like i wouldn't say that 2018 as 0.99

00:17:59.740 a painting for him was a shit painting throw it in the trash yeah it started a little fucked up 0.98

00:18:05.080 and ugly but it ended with a lot of really good things happening as a result and the biggest one 0.99

00:18:09.340 being his growth as a as a human i i guess and i man i'm i'm i'm biased and i guess the reason i

00:18:19.500 feel like this is because like i haven't seen an article an outlet a publication where the words

00:18:27.340 logan paul controversial youtube star did not lead and i wouldn't be surprised if you guys did it

00:18:33.300 um it's almost as if and again maybe this is my fault it's like i'm trying to earn the chance to

00:18:42.160 be forgiven yeah i'm not asking for you to forgive me right now i'm asking for your permission and

00:18:48.620 when i say you i'm not talking to my camera i'm talking to your cameras i'm asking for your

00:18:53.280 permission to allow me to be forgiven because without that even and a lot of people have

00:19:00.420 completely shut that off without that it's like oh how long am i how long is the controversial

00:19:05.440 youtuber going to be the thing like i cannot move forward with that i in my mind i have been locked

00:19:11.680 in this role and that's it and now i'm like struggling trying to fight out of that and it's

00:19:18.980 it's it's it's difficult can i ask you a question on that point yeah i think it's also

00:19:25.820 important for him to realize that you're not locked into that title because you are a controversial 0.92

00:19:32.980 youtuber per se you're locked into that title because that's the shit that gets people watching 0.97

00:19:38.580 bro they use clickbait traditional media uses clickbait cnn uses clickbait the same way we use 0.96

00:19:45.540 clickbait on youtube they take the most exciting intriguing part of the story which is suicide

00:19:50.760 forest you know you controversial youtuber and they lead with it because it's going to get views

00:19:55.100 it's going to get clicks so i think like there's a part of you that has to separate from

00:19:59.140 and understand that there's a difference between them using it to define you and them using it to

00:20:04.440 propel their own before you speak yes yes um i i will say i'm also cognizant that i have not fully

00:20:12.080 done my job and in in like i'm i'm sitting here like whining right but i have not yet fully proven

00:20:18.620 like yo i deserve that chance to be forgiven i think the only thing i can continue to do is

00:20:23.180 continue making some dope ass content that make big waves online because that's at the end of the

00:20:27.680 day that's what i'm good at um that's my thing yeah so so yeah i like i gotta work harder is

00:20:34.040 what it comes down to but and and and i'm gonna challenge you and because maybe it's work harder

00:20:39.320 right or maybe it's get clearer because i think that you have to be you have to be aware of what

00:20:46.000 it is you want right like you you talked about a minute ago it's not necessarily that i want

00:20:50.120 to be forgiven right now. I said, I want the opportunity, I want to be given the opportunity

00:20:54.320 for forgiveness to earn that forgiveness. Right. You, you were asking me about the title

00:21:01.740 controversial, uh, YouTube star, uh, you have the power to reverse that. Right. Just like you had

00:21:09.960 the power to, uh, create that, create that. Right. Like we didn't go to Japan and make you do a video.

00:21:17.860 we didn't make you post it we didn't make you keep it up we didn't make you take it down do

00:21:22.220 you know what i'm saying and when i say we i mean socially yeah we i don't mean access i don't mean

00:21:26.300 nbc uh or youtube um so you know you have to i think you are the the the captain of your own

00:21:36.420 ship here you know what i mean and so if you if there's something that you want be about the

00:21:41.680 business of going to get it like you do forever for impulses yeah and we are 2019 is gonna be

00:21:47.520 huge we purposely been we've purposely been uh and i've said this before kind of holding back

00:21:51.600 on the content output right now yeah because we're gonna hit 2019 the hardest we've hit anything um

00:21:57.400 so what does forgiveness look like for you then because it doesn't look like i mean to be to be

00:22:02.520 honest is it is it just the removal of using the word controversial youtube star because it doesn't

00:22:07.600 seem to me that like and and forgive me if i'm being ignorant but it doesn't seem to me that

00:22:12.340 you've been hit like super hard like there's is there is it just like you walk in the grocery

00:22:16.860 or when people are looking at you like, there he is.

00:22:19.180 In real life, no.

00:22:20.320 In real life, no.

00:22:21.080 I haven't.

00:22:22.560 No one treats me.

00:22:24.520 I mean, sure, you have the occasional heckler.

00:22:27.180 But forgiveness, to me, looks like my opportunity

00:22:32.180 to start acting in films again

00:22:35.460 by big production companies in Hollywood.

00:22:40.300 Brands reaching out to me and going, you know what?

00:22:42.880 He's made mistakes, but we like what he's doing now

00:22:46.080 and we like where his brand is headed and we're going to partner with him and and maybe put our

00:22:51.100 brand on the line because we know the payoff is going to be great um i think obviously dropping

00:22:57.320 the whole controversial like at what point are people going to stop saying like we're earlier

00:23:03.000 this year his suicide force scandal you know like i again i don't know the answer and i do have to

00:23:09.060 be patient yeah it's something i'm not good at yeah but i think i think you you like you can't

00:23:14.280 Just like you can't necessarily dictate how people – once you put it out there, you can't really dictate how then people digest that.

00:23:24.920 Yeah, true.

00:23:25.420 Like everyone has to go through their process.

00:23:27.820 This thing has to go through its process.

00:23:29.700 I understand 100% can understand making a mistake or doing something that ends up being something you regret, right?

00:23:37.540 And then feeling like I want to move past this.

00:23:39.840 I want to move past this.

00:23:40.620 I want to move past this.

00:23:41.960 That's unfortunately just not how –

00:23:44.240 I know. I know. I've come to accept that.

00:23:47.120 But you do have all of the power to put as much, and if it means as much as it seems like it means to you, as much of your energy behind moving it forward in a way that you own, right?

00:24:01.560 So you don't have to wait for access to do a story on you to be living in your route to forgiveness.

00:24:09.480 false because y'all have a demographic that only knows me for one thing they are not watching this

00:24:16.180 they are not watching my vlogs so then it would it would like it would really behoove you to take

00:24:20.640 advantage then of the opportunities when you're in front of the the because i'm a representative

00:24:26.460 it seems like i'm a representative of this audience you want to reach right that the last

00:24:31.200 time they heard from you is yeah yes the controversial right and so it would seem to

00:24:37.360 me that you would be you would do as much as you possibly could to to um engage in a 100 as

00:24:46.160 authentic as possible experience or interaction to show this is who i am but in the snapshot that

00:24:52.980 you can see in these 20 minutes but that i think going back to that question that i asked before

00:24:57.560 earlier like it is is and this goes back to media responsibility and access hollywood responsibility

00:25:04.080 and everybody is the story about logan paul philanthropist and make-a-wish foundation

00:25:09.340 proponent and activist going to get the same i think coverage from you and i don't mean no no

00:25:16.740 it's not and i'll tell you i'll tell you why it's not because and if i'm if i'm going to be perfectly

00:25:20.520 candid uh and as i look at um no it's not because it doesn't it doesn't have the same it doesn't

00:25:28.480 hit the same and the the not to say that it's not significant the philanthropy the the the giving

00:25:35.000 back and uh your philanthropic endeavors like not to say that that doesn't have a significant pull

00:25:41.780 or weight right but if you're asking me because i also can't speak for all of media right i can't

00:25:50.500 speak for even access hollywood i can talk for me but you're right you're representative of the

00:25:55.120 current of the current state why do you and that's why why do you think that that's what you say

00:25:58.880 why does that well well because because listen and i think this goes to a higher level discussion

00:26:03.360 right now about media and and current you know dialogue yeah the reason why we have someone

00:26:08.000 like donald trump as president right and and and the conversation how it how it evolves and evolves

00:26:13.520 and evolves around this negative connotation and dirty laundry has always paid the bills for media

00:26:19.960 always always always always and it continues to and so and so logan paul logan paul you know

00:26:28.720 what is he supposed to do what is he supposed to do what is he supposed to do

00:26:36.060 you say that like you live it and breathe it and that's right no no authentic so my question is

00:26:43.080 what do you think he should do to be totally honest with you i think you should take a break

00:26:48.000 to be to be if you're asking me now this is this is not my recommendation to you this is what i

00:26:54.300 think okay i think you should you need it would have been it would have been beneficial to you

00:26:59.760 to take a break do you know that i get mentally unhealthy and unhappy if i'm not creating content

00:27:06.680 i didn't say that you shouldn't be creating content i said you should take a break because

00:27:11.000 you're creating content doesn't mean that you're putting it out and that you're you're you're being

00:27:14.400 fed off of this energy exchange with an audience but that's part of my high so then maybe you need

00:27:21.000 to consider being sober this is an analogy right so guys i am quitting youtube and every because

00:27:32.120 of him i've never done no i'm not i'm not i'm certainly i'm certainly not saying i'm like again

00:27:37.060 i'm not saying that this is what you should do if you're going to ask me my opinion i think it would

00:27:43.980 have been it would have been a reasonable course of action to see the response that happened as a

00:27:51.240 result of that video and to say okay i am moving you said it yourself i'm moving way too fast i've

00:27:59.860 got way too much going on it appears that my my core my my conscious center is out of alignment

00:28:07.780 with who i really am and now i'm hurting people in a way that i did not anticipate and so i need

00:28:13.700 to get that back in check and so in order to do that i'm gonna step away he did that that break

00:28:19.700 for me yeah was me training for the boxing fight that i had earlier this year so that so i that's

00:28:25.620 not stepping away to me that's that is that's pivoting into something that that is just as fast

00:28:31.680 just as furious and and doesn't necessarily allow you the opportunity to to then go in and say

00:28:39.180 what in my life has gone undealt with that would or or handled maybe improperly that allowed me or

00:28:52.280 that that propelled me to get to this point where this is what my life is or this is where the course

00:28:58.820 of actions have taken me how how is it that i've gotten to this point and what is it that i need to

00:29:03.660 address so that i'm not so out of alignment is that realistic sure like like for for a working

00:29:08.720 person in this day and age right or or a multi-millionaire yeah all right all right listen

00:29:13.240 but i'm saying but for anyone well no you can't like ah that's reality let me jump back in as

00:29:18.760 opposed to it being a detriment to his pocket even if it's just a detriment to his mind to

00:29:24.480 not create right is it realistic for him to take this you know six month break now when it first

00:29:30.000 happened when you say six months maybe maybe i'm saying like two years three years but listen i

00:29:34.660 was with him from the beginning i was not not the beginning but the beginning definitely from the

00:29:38.080 beginning of the year and far beyond that but i was with him in january yeah and he took a very

00:29:42.700 significant step back and i will say i will say i don't know if i've ever said this publicly um yes

00:29:48.500 i took the step back it was not effective it was not a it was not a true step back i didn't i i

00:29:55.580 came back and i made a very very powerful and uh strong video that is like like mike said it's the

00:30:00.880 number one most viewed suicide psa ever i'm very proud of that yeah i know it saved lives um and

00:30:06.800 that's one, uh, positive from the situation. But I will say again, in hindsight, I can see this now.

00:30:11.380 And even now I'm sure I'm not like fully recovered and, um, hyper aware of everything,

00:30:17.760 but I do know now when I look back and even after that month break, you could see in the vlogs,

00:30:22.920 like that month break didn't really do anything. I didn't really learn much. Um, it took, it took

00:30:29.860 relationships with people. Um, me, although you don't think it was a step back, taking a step

00:30:36.660 back from the internet and focusing hard on getting my body to where it needed to be for this

00:30:40.800 crazy event um even doing this helps impulsive helps because i can i can really express myself

00:30:47.100 and and be curious and do my best to move on to that next step um but yeah if i'm gonna take a

00:30:55.900 break he said six months you said two years like if i'm gonna take a proper break 15 minutes and

00:30:59.800 you're it's just hard dude like if i needed to do it it would have to be like a year or two years

00:31:04.240 which i just don't want to do because i would literally be so unhappy really actually unhappy

00:31:08.260 yeah even if i am making making content if i did it would be for music i would take a six-month

00:31:15.980 hiatus to just make an album or two and come back and be like yo i'm here so humor me it like i'm

00:31:26.440 hearing a lot about like me me my turn me i right and it i guess the the thing that i i was

00:31:35.500 suggesting is that the the the look in your break is really about like where where where am i in

00:31:43.180 relation to others right where am i how am i falling in relation to others because like i

00:31:49.580 think one of the reasons you got the moniker controversial youtube star was because it was

00:31:54.600 like all these other people were affected by the video and it was like in terms of a pivot point

00:32:05.040 for someone who is in a crash and burn trajectory to then flip it to what i know him to be now

00:32:11.000 yeah which is a very very grounded strong continuing to better himself day after day

00:32:19.560 And starting to now find that very, very sincere empathy and empathy for others that can then create something that helps those people and groups of those people through whether mental health awareness or suicide or whatever, or whatever he decides to do because he's got a ton of things on the plate.

00:32:39.580 It was – it touched him in a way that I don't think anyone watching or listening to this can ever understand.

00:32:46.040 I don't think he's taking that away from Logan.

00:32:48.980 i think what he's saying is to just be conscious of the impact yeah and i think that that to me

00:32:55.340 what i see just from being here along this whole journey is that this show and what we're doing on

00:33:01.860 our own accord not in control of what you're putting out like what you put out doesn't affect

00:33:07.200 us right in all reality it doesn't and if you think it does it's not true because it's going

00:33:12.240 out and yeah some people are thinking a certain way but at the end of the day that doesn't give

00:33:17.600 anybody else power over what we all do right and what you do so the process that takes place in

00:33:24.360 that narrative i think when you when you say you have that vendetta you have that something out

00:33:29.480 that's pointless i think that needs to get dropped i know because i'm what i'm sort of joking i'm it's

00:33:35.160 like a five percent feeling i had it more in the like the middle of the year when i was like

00:33:38.680 tweeting back at like crystalia and shit and i was just like an angry kid i'm sort of joking it's

00:33:42.540 just like it is refreshing and nice you guys are the first publication that has uh put me on camera 0.93

00:33:46.860 i believe i may have done one like but like yeah um but it's what he's saying is this like what

00:33:53.620 you're getting at this is a perfect opportunity for you to continually reflect for sure back and

00:33:58.580 improve you know i have those steps i was like not a slight problem you're very well spoken mike 0.95

00:34:03.000 and i love you you know i love you i personally i i just have like a problem my boy jerking me off

00:34:09.040 like tell me like oh he's done this and again thank you but i think as you know you know as

00:34:13.220 well as i do it's up to me now after you know we cut and every day here on yeah forward to continue

00:34:19.300 being better which is always like at the end of the day that's what it comes down to at the end

00:34:23.280 of the day that's what it comes down to and at the end of the day it that's that at the end of the

00:34:27.740 day it comes down to that and and the point that i was trying to make or hoping to to um hit on in

00:34:34.760 portions of our our conversation was i wanted to see like if that's even something you thought

00:34:39.020 right like i even i wanted to see if that was like if you were responding to pressure to respond to

00:34:45.420 that situation or if you were actually reflecting on that situation you know what i mean that the

00:34:52.280 question to you was like what has been the most poignant lesson for you in this last year and i 0.99

00:34:58.280 thought that what you said about slowing down was yeah it was like the realest shit you've said 0.90

00:35:03.400 to be perfectly honest with you do you know what i'm saying because it was like i can so get i can 0.96

00:35:10.780 so understand how you get in this machine of content content content content got to turn out

00:35:16.280 got to turn out got to turn out also because of that's what you do that's what you love that's how

00:35:20.280 you operate that's how you think but also that's how we've come to know you so then you have a pace

00:35:26.080 to keep up. And then I can also understand making really bad choices and then, and not knowing it's

00:35:34.280 a really bad choice until you're smacked in the face with it. Right. And at some point you just

00:35:40.120 have to say like, I'm sorry. And I'm sorry in a way that I now can't control how you feel about

00:35:47.500 that. I can't control what you do with that. I can only control me. And so that's what I'm saying

00:35:53.660 to you like you got to let controversial youtube star honestly you got to let that go because that

00:36:00.420 that won't change until you change it yeah yeah and and again it's like i'm and it like it's not

00:36:08.920 going to take a couple checks and i'm i don't i swear i do not mean to minimize or to snapshot

00:36:14.100 your your work afterwards skin dog but like i'm it's it's going to take more than 365 days and

00:36:20.660 and several hundred thousand dollars or millions of dollars and donations.

00:36:24.920 And I'm sorry, it's going to take more than that to show.

00:36:28.200 And so you just got to kind of roll with that.

00:36:30.400 Facts.

00:36:30.960 And like, you're, you're good.

00:36:32.320 You are good at what you do.

00:36:33.560 You would not be on the Forbes list.

00:36:36.320 You would not be on Google's list if you were not excellent.

00:36:39.220 If you did not have a, a, a well-working machine around you.

00:36:43.020 Right.

00:36:43.560 And so I'm saying that the same effort that you put into that,

00:36:47.120 the same effort you put into being great doing what you do continue putting that same effort

00:36:53.440 into being great do you think logan do you think personally is that valid yes very very was that

00:37:01.420 reasonable yes absolutely you know i don't i don't i didn't come here to judge you i didn't come here

00:37:06.720 to i know and i could see that and i'm sorry that i've made you the vehicle of like the representation

00:37:11.500 of traditional hollywood that i'm sort of like i don't want to put you on the hot seat but i

00:37:14.720 absolutely do and uh i i really appreciate you um coming here and talking to me of course even

00:37:20.280 my questions here dude like i didn't want to talk about this the whole time but we're really like

00:37:22.920 diving in and quite honestly for selfless reasons this is nice because it's sort of therapeutic for

00:37:27.040 me in a way so um i i appreciate you coming on um i've been getting the wrap-up sign for the past

00:37:33.540 10 minutes so oh that's the move on sign oh wait let me see the wrap-up let me see the move on

00:37:39.860 what does that look like what's it what's up but what's the move on i just want to see it

00:37:45.600 oh that was bam scott just doing the neck scott there ever been any any uh celebs that you were

00:37:53.340 nervous because you knew that if you met them in real life that you would be attracted to them

00:37:59.500 like like like that you were like yo this this person is so hot that if i have to interview

00:38:04.500 them like i don't know if i'm gonna be able to control myself yeah be able to control myself

00:38:08.060 Like, not controlling myself, but, like, that you were just going to maybe, like, get a little sweaty, like, just-

00:38:12.640 Oh, I've gotten sweaty.

00:38:13.500 I've gotten sweaty.

00:38:14.260 Who makes you sweat?

00:38:15.540 Who makes you sweat?

00:38:16.840 Whoa, whoa.

00:38:19.100 I don't know if they, like, got closer to me.

00:38:21.260 Like, things just got really real.

00:38:22.820 I'm sweating now for different reasons.

00:38:25.140 I'll be honest.

00:38:26.480 Now you handle yourself well.

00:38:27.760 I'm sweating now for different reasons.

00:38:29.800 Zoe Saldana made me that way.

00:38:32.440 But that was- I mean, think about it.

00:38:34.140 Was she, by chance, green when you interviewed her?

00:38:36.240 She wasn't green.

00:38:37.000 she wasn't blue she's been both of those and she's still been wildly attractive was she the avatar

00:38:42.320 she was she is the avatar not was is she's great yeah she is full spectrum of colors that i can't

00:38:49.500 see because i'm and colorblind oh lord and she's she's one of those people that gives

00:38:55.820 with her whole heart right so she she creates content outside of the films and the and the

00:40:58.980 hollywood why you guys tell me it's access hollywood it's in my calendar is a h

00:41:02.620 now it's just a what the hell happened we're adjacent adjacent hollywood i'm totally kidding

00:41:09.480 um no so so um i started in like i i got a gig in the third grade where i was playing a young

00:41:17.740 reggie miller playing against a young larry bird for the player player intro videos for the nba for

00:41:22.620 the pacers in particular and i just remember leaving that shoot my sister booked me on me

00:41:26.880 stacy pates she booked it booked me on it and i remember going home from that shoot

00:41:31.380 and feeling like oh this is what i want to do and you did and you did it yeah i mean i i i chased

00:41:38.260 every particular every possible opportunity in indianapolis um for video content production for

00:41:45.200 opportunities to put hands on camera hands on mouse and on keyboard to edit um and to learn

00:41:51.460 how to tell stories through the video medium and so uh crafted a voice in journalism you know what

00:41:58.480 i mean in a program called uh youth video institute and then uh at pike high school and

00:42:04.100 finally at purdue university and so was able to work in different news organizations and was like

00:42:10.000 this is what i want to do but at the end of the day it like that was like the like

00:42:14.280 journalism entertainment news was always like a a sub interest to human interaction right like

00:42:22.340 this is the thing that i vibe on like this is the thing that i feed on like you talk about getting

00:42:26.540 high like this is the thing that i enjoy the most and so i would be doing it if i were a teacher i

00:42:32.080 would be doing it if i were a taxi cab driver i'd be doing it if i were uh you'd be like the teacher

00:42:38.080 that like changes the kid's life like changes the outcome of his life because you're like yo i think

00:42:41.960 you should pursue this dream that i i see you having a speck of interest in i appreciate that

00:42:46.780 yeah that i i i totally see that we started a non-profit to do that called fight the wackness

00:42:52.880 can you elaborate spencer's really into education and the way kids are being educated so we we i

00:42:58.180 mean we started an organization called fight the wackness that was we we defined wackness as

00:43:02.020 anything that prevented one from achieving greatness so it could be bullying could be a

00:43:05.720 lack of uh of uh male role models it could be uh um literacy it could be your address all kinds of

00:43:15.480 things right so we wanted to create a program that would allow young people to get their hands on

00:43:21.800 the industries that they were interested in i've lost everyone no i mean i was i was looking i was

00:43:27.120 looking someone up i spent time with a guy that um wrote a made a documentary called visible man

00:43:32.380 Yeah.

00:43:32.840 You know what I'm talking about?

00:43:34.160 Neil.

00:43:35.400 I'm not familiar.

00:43:36.400 All I could think of was that.

00:43:37.560 I want to connect you after.

00:43:38.580 Sorry.

00:43:38.880 I was just trying to.

00:43:39.660 No, no.

00:43:39.980 I'm tuned, bro.

00:43:40.920 No, I appreciate that.

00:43:42.140 I appreciate that.

00:43:42.820 He does the same thing.

00:43:43.860 That's these digital natives nowadays, man.

00:43:45.660 I get it, bro.

00:43:46.360 Like, it's an extension of your hand.

00:43:47.940 It's like a thought.

00:43:48.680 You go right to it.

00:43:49.280 No, no, no.

00:43:49.700 I'm listening to it.

00:43:51.020 Well, he does the same thing.

00:43:52.920 He works with inner city youth that have, you know, all kinds of, you know, obstacles

00:44:00.320 that they have to overcome.

00:44:01.280 and he gives them the right role models and the right.

00:44:03.460 Yeah.

00:44:03.780 I have this theory.

00:44:05.160 What?

00:44:05.560 I came up with this for the parents listening.

00:44:09.560 My theory is when your kid hits the ages of eight to 12,

00:44:14.980 whatever he expresses,

00:44:17.620 he or she expresses they're interested in most,

00:44:20.800 foster that.

00:44:22.460 Yeah.

00:44:23.340 Foster that.

00:44:24.780 For me, it was video.

00:44:26.360 Yeah.

00:44:27.240 But when I said, yo, I want to do like videos. 0.73

00:44:29.800 what the fuck how you make money doing that youtube was just getting started no no one

00:44:34.720 thought i could do it we were i didn't think i could do it when youtube came out we were using 0.98

00:44:38.800 it solely to watch reruns of martin yes yes like that was the only reason there was no such thing

00:44:45.500 as creator but my mom thank god mom i love you bought me a video camera it was as simple as that

00:44:51.500 foster the belief at a young age and then you're you can become like the thing you want to become

00:44:58.080 instead of working like a nine-to-five job and feeling trapped every day.

00:45:01.200 Building on that too, there's 75% of kids 6 through 17 want to be a YouTuber.

00:45:07.140 And I hear so many parents that are like, oh, no, like, you know,

00:45:10.540 what's the chance of my kid or the kids themselves not believing in themselves.

00:45:14.940 What I think is cool is it's beautiful that we know 75% of those kids want that.

00:45:21.880 So what we should do instead of telling them, no, that's tough to make it there

00:45:26.080 or you realize what you're gonna have to do that is a perfect outlet to now build that passion

00:45:33.500 whether or not they end up becoming a youtuber yeah you you have a vehicle that they are passionate

00:45:38.540 about can you something they want to do our approach was instead of it's so like you have

00:45:43.340 these two you have kids who are like i want to be i want to be an nba player right and you the first

00:45:48.760 thing you as an adult think oh statistically this is like not gonna happen right so but instead of

00:45:53.480 saying yeah nah maybe pick maybe pick something else we took you to the pacers and we showed you

00:45:59.940 all of these other gigs that help make the nba work like mc exactly maybe it's mc that's super

00:46:10.440 cool maybe it's like uh game operations maybe it's publicity maybe it's uh coaching maybe you

00:46:16.380 all of these other avenues work on your basketball game but if you're like 17 and have played

00:46:23.880 three games of basketball and you're five foot two and you're five two like have a backup plan

00:46:28.960 question saw you on the other side of the camera yeah as a party goer yeah on power uh-huh do you

00:46:35.660 like that i loved it yeah i mean i loved power is like just like you know what i mean come on

00:46:41.220 like one of the best shows it's like one of the best shows on tv and so i was watching that show

00:46:45.560 Okay, I'm going to give you, this is, I mean, it's not really a funny story, but it's just an interesting story.

00:46:49.620 So my Uncle Scott, man I'm named after, when I left Purdue to move to L.A., he told me, so when you get back, you're going to need to be famous.

00:47:02.660 Like, and don't come back.

00:47:04.580 Until you're famous.

00:47:05.500 Until you're famous.

00:47:06.120 What a broad thing to say to someone.

00:47:10.420 What does that mean?

00:47:11.660 What's the metric there?

00:47:13.180 Right.

00:47:13.820 The KPI.

00:47:14.900 But what I took that as, you're getting no breaks because you're following your dream, right?

00:47:20.820 You're going to be held to the same standard of excellence.

00:47:24.820 And fame is like an easy metric as far as like casual conversation.

00:47:30.100 He dropped that on me like as I was putting like a Tupperware thing into the trunk.

00:47:35.540 And so he loved power, like loves this show. 0.99

00:47:41.640 Oh, shit, he saw you on it, huh? 1.00

00:47:43.320 We would be at holiday gatherings 1.00

00:47:45.820 And he would be like

00:47:46.900 I don't know why people are watching Empire

00:47:48.460 Shout out

00:47:50.240 And love to Taraji

00:47:51.560 And Lee Daniels

00:47:52.720 Terrence Howard

00:47:54.560 What up

00:47:55.020 But power was like the thing that he loved

00:47:59.260 And so when the opportunity came about to be on it

00:48:01.580 I was like ah yeah

00:48:02.660 And they were like yeah you need to sign this NDA

00:48:04.120 I was like gladly

00:48:04.860 I don't want to tell nobody about it

00:48:06.160 I'll sign anything you got

00:48:07.340 Till it happens

00:48:08.840 Cause you know how this happens

00:48:10.160 You go do it and then they cut you out

00:48:11.980 And you're like

00:48:12.320 But I had a

00:48:14.780 I was there

00:48:15.780 That's like me

00:48:17.200 Ma watch Access Hollywood

00:48:18.480 I think there's a part

00:48:19.260 About me on there

00:48:19.980 She watches it

00:48:20.680 There absolutely will not be

00:48:21.560 See that's what I'm saying

00:48:22.540 That's what I'm saying 0.99

00:48:23.460 Ma don't fucking watch it 0.99

00:48:24.960 Just watch Impulsive 1.00

00:48:25.800 That's your only chance

00:48:26.780 Yeah

00:48:27.520 Hey so

00:48:28.260 You've been doing this

00:48:29.120 For some time now

00:48:29.700 You have advice

00:48:30.260 For hosting this podcast

00:48:31.300 And dealing with guests

00:48:32.460 What do you mean?

00:48:34.240 Not dealing with guests

00:48:35.160 Just like

00:48:35.560 You have advice

00:48:36.660 On how to keep it real

00:48:37.480 Authentic

00:48:38.060 And keep your audience glued

00:48:39.600 I think we're doing a good job

00:48:40.680 I'm just curious

00:48:41.260 Let me pick your brain

00:48:42.080 You said you're the number one podcast.

00:48:45.760 I'm going to be honest with you, man.

00:48:46.460 We kind of just say that.

00:48:47.660 Like, we don't even know if it's true.

00:48:48.540 We're speaking into existence.

00:48:49.520 I'm a journalist.

00:48:50.380 I said, you said, you said it's the number one podcast.

00:48:53.780 I mean, I think.

00:48:54.520 To us it is.

00:48:55.180 Of course.

00:48:55.680 He's agreeing.

00:48:56.400 He's agreeing.

00:48:56.980 It better be to you.

00:48:59.040 I think the reality is now everybody wants authenticity.

00:49:04.100 So even if you're going to be funny, even if you're going to be over the top,

00:49:08.920 people want to believe that

00:49:11.140 it's somewhere in you that you're not

00:49:13.020 mailing it in. But what if you suck even when you're being 0.99

00:49:14.940 authentic? Then 1.00

00:49:16.840 winning. If you suck 1.00

00:49:19.300 even when you're being authentic 1.00

00:49:20.600 or do you just stay authentic 0.99

00:49:22.900 to it and you just suck and that's like your route 1.00

00:49:25.160 and that's your route. You're just like hey what's up welcome 1.00

00:49:27.060 to Apostle we all suck. I feel like we're 0.99

00:49:28.660 we're right there that's us. It's just like

00:49:31.060 yo we suck come suck with us. 1.00

00:49:32.740 That is such bullshit. I'm fucking 1.00

00:49:35.160 dope I'm not gonna lie. No I mean 1.00

00:49:36.520 I think also too you gotta like

00:49:38.820 I'm just always going to be a proponent

00:49:40.880 of getting clear, being clear and knowing what you want

00:49:43.120 and then just being relentless in your pursuit

00:49:44.940 of that. I think you'll be

00:49:46.460 you'll do fine. You'll be great if you want

00:49:48.940 to be great. Question. Do celebs

00:49:51.220 and people you talk to

00:49:52.720 buffer themselves around you

00:49:54.800 off camera? Careful, careful.

00:49:57.440 Are they always on

00:49:58.920 record? No.

00:50:00.860 People aren't always on record with me.

00:50:02.180 I was going to tell you a story before

00:50:04.940 this happened

00:50:05.540 And like yo

00:50:07.460 I'm afraid quite honestly

00:50:09.540 No here's the thing I'll tell you

00:50:11.980 Like

00:50:12.440 We live in a time where you should be aware

00:50:16.160 That

00:50:17.240 You're always on record

00:50:19.400 But nah I mean I'm not

00:50:21.900 I'm not an animal

00:50:22.880 Like you don't come to work and Ariel

00:50:25.460 Your producer is like

00:50:26.880 Yo I know you hung out with XYZ last night 1.00

00:50:29.400 It's the fucking deal 0.99

00:50:30.620 Oh yeah that happens 1.00

00:50:31.940 And do you tell her or are you like no I can't

00:50:34.660 i think but it doesn't go on air no it definitely goes on air oh i think what you're getting at is

00:50:42.040 that we should live our lives as if we're on air all the time yeah i think because that's the

00:50:45.940 that's the society we live in well and and and i don't want that to sound like you gotta fake it

00:50:51.300 all the time right what i'm really getting at is like real be real and also be aware that the

00:50:56.000 things that you say and the things that you're doing may impact someone else yeah they have in

00:51:00.820 And in a way that you should want that to be something good.

00:51:05.700 You should want that to be something great.

00:51:07.720 My version of real, I'm real.

00:51:11.220 Most of my realness comes in like stories.

00:51:14.120 Like I would like to tell you some things.

00:51:16.020 So tell me some things.

00:51:17.080 I can't because I don't know what you're going to do with the information.

00:51:19.740 Well, you have cameras here.

00:51:21.500 I have cameras here.

00:51:22.500 I'm pretty sure the information is going to get out whether he does something with it or not.

00:51:25.180 You're literally airing a podcast now.

00:51:28.020 So like this is a lot less about what I'm going to do with it.

00:51:30.620 and about what you're going to be.

00:51:33.240 Literally, I have a microphone.

00:53:40.460 Well, that's probably where we should start.

00:53:42.680 Something irks me about the dating apps.

00:53:45.380 And then, you know, fun fact, I also got kicked off the app.

00:53:47.620 Yeah, he did.

00:53:48.040 How did you get kicked off the app?

00:53:48.700 They removed me.

00:53:54.140 No, they don't, they don't allow controversial, controversial YouTube stars.

00:53:58.140 Quite honestly, it's against the rules and rights.

00:54:00.240 It's, it's, it's happened.

00:54:01.940 Someone, one of the creators is, is like, yo, I don't like that guy.

00:54:05.100 He's not giving me the permission to be forgiven ever.

00:54:07.300 Like it's done so much so that I don't even want, like they let my brother on.

00:54:11.480 Huh?

00:54:12.840 It's not like I, I was on for two days.

00:54:14.940 Would you ever go on like a blind date?

00:54:16.380 Would you ever be like set up?

00:54:18.100 Depends who's setting me up. 0.97

00:54:19.380 If he sets me up, absolutely fucking not. 0.95

00:54:21.920 If Spencer sets me up 0.99

00:54:24.940 Yeah

00:54:25.260 That's my boy

00:54:26.180 He seems like he's got a lot of sense

00:54:27.900 Which is funny

00:54:28.460 Because every girl he hangs out with now

00:54:29.840 I do set him up with

00:54:30.880 So he says that online

00:54:32.040 Or on air

00:54:33.240 But in reality

00:54:34.220 He doesn't mean it

00:54:35.300 No he doesn't

00:54:35.760 And he's making a face

00:54:36.440 I try to feed him

00:54:37.340 I try to feed him

00:54:38.100 Yeah every girl I hang out with

00:54:39.340 Is through Mike

00:54:39.960 For sure

00:54:41.340 Yeah Mike gets me all the girls

00:54:43.980 Well Mike

00:54:44.480 If you set me up

00:54:45.580 If you set me up

00:54:46.860 On a blind date

00:54:47.660 Yeah

00:54:48.040 I'd take that

00:54:49.840 I trust you

00:54:50.560 that's what we're i think that's what we're getting at man you need to come around here

00:54:54.380 more often logan is looking for some relationships so you know let me ask you something scott evans

00:55:02.000 yeah not related to chris evans not are you sure my team told me you were and i was like i don't

00:55:08.320 think so guys no don't think so i don't think so don't think so it's it's funny how often that

00:55:13.260 happens too and when i walk in the room and they're like hi can we help you and i'm like

00:55:16.700 i'm scott evans and like no the hell you ain't like all my life why do you not start a youtube

00:55:23.560 channel and become a content creator and instead you do the opposite and you work for a medium that

00:55:30.920 you work for except doing it yourself because this was my dream i wanted to work on uh a a

00:55:38.220 entertainment news show on a big three network in prime time yeah i wanted to be one of the few

00:55:44.080 uh young black men that people could point to that young other that other young people could 0.93

00:55:49.620 point to and say damn yeah look at that you know that's that's um first off congratulations 0.99

00:55:54.840 that's fucking huge i'm sure you've had many uphill battles your entire life yeah um i think 0.98

00:55:59.800 i'll get to the eventually i think i'll get to the um uh youtube that the independent content 0.98

00:56:06.360 creation you know i'm working now on on pitching shows developing shows things that i'm passionate

00:56:11.820 about in ways that that are different than the way i'm passionate about my job at access

00:56:16.220 um but i think there's work to do in this medium you know what i mean i want it to be a a tally in

00:56:24.080 the mark of representation sort of interesting how and again this is come from coming from someone

00:56:28.720 who uh in the past more than now has has hopped back and forth traditional digital traditional

00:56:33.700 digital yeah um a which by the way do you think there's like a blend in the two i'm trying huh

00:56:40.420 i'm trying very hard there's more and more crossover happening right now it's happening

00:56:44.220 it's funny because we want what you have and y'all want what we have do we i mean i don't know if

00:56:48.820 y'all want but you don't want to be the next controversial youtube side no no no no i'm not

00:56:52.420 saying i'm not saying we i'm referring to digital creators in general talking about like yeah like

00:56:56.140 yes y'all want the young impressionable audience who will consume your content and yeah do buy and

00:57:01.580 watch the things that you say like yes you want that that's real yeah and i and i want what you

00:57:05.720 have it's like the the older generation who like straight up like i would like their respect that's

00:57:10.160 all i want i want their respect um don't even need their time just be you know see them in public

00:57:15.080 yo logan love what you do those are my favorite interactions hmm gotta earn it yeah true you're

00:57:21.180 doing it now i just gotta keep on keeping on thanks um to the words out of my mouth i think

00:57:26.100 hey jeff yep hey can you make eye contact with me

00:57:30.540 you know i spoke to it rolling loud the the the the guy i'm not gonna say his name i he did the

00:57:38.440 soundtrack for that one movie

00:57:39.780 that I did

00:57:42.420 and he told me it's coming out

00:57:43.960 soon. He said he was

00:57:46.400 just at the studio, which is

00:57:48.420 big. Do you think

00:57:50.040 do you think

00:57:51.440 did y'all hear anything about that?

00:57:54.520 She goes, oh god almighty.

00:57:56.700 Maybe it's wrong, but

00:57:57.820 that'd be sick. Like you were mentioning

00:58:00.180 you know, this is

00:58:02.400 your dream to be in

00:58:04.200 entertainment. 0.97

00:58:08.440 spencer's fucking pissed now so you were saying this is your dream to be in in hollywood in 0.98

00:58:13.980 entertainment logan you were mentioning this is really been your dream as well to be a actor and 0.98

00:58:20.380 to be in in hollywood do you think that some of that feeling that you're working on overcoming

00:58:27.840 is because that that dream was kind of stifled through your own actions 0.99

00:58:32.060 yeah yeah for sure it sucks i i fucked myself in the highest degree there's no one else to blame 0.99

00:58:45.120 so so yeah again we like we've talked about a thousand times but like the only person to tell 0.99

00:58:50.260 you know more than anyone the only person who can like really fix me is me right well and i think

00:58:57.360 that's what's been amazing to watch is that you're on that trajectory and like you know if i have any

00:59:03.700 two cents is just have patience yeah you were saying have patience stick to it like this is a 0.99

00:59:09.140 the number one podcast in the world baby you said and really quick you said you fucked yourself on 1.00

00:59:13.920 the highest degree fuck yourself on the highest degree means you either died or gave up you didn't 1.00

00:59:19.080 either of those yeah straight up it could get worse it could get a lot worse bro you're sitting 1.00

00:59:23.740 on the number one podcast in the world right now homie it could get a lot worse my i have a i have

00:59:28.820 a uh a aunt who said something to me that was like it's like a piece of advice i always come

00:59:33.780 back to and it's like time is a revealer of all things right and so you can there there are a lot

00:59:39.440 of things you can front but you can't front forever right like if you're sincere and you're

00:59:45.260 real about it like you're you're gonna do it for as long as it is because that's just who you will

00:59:49.500 become right and so the result of uh what comes as a what comes as a result of that as far as

00:59:56.480 your public persona or public perception is none of your business because your business is about

01:00:01.780 making sure everything you do is in line with what you know and what you believe and what is

01:00:06.740 true for you yeah right so like what access writes about you what the hollywood reporter writes about

01:00:13.140 you what tmz writes about you really is is none of your business unless you're giving them

01:00:19.900 like directly feeding them the negative the bull right so instead feed them something else

01:00:26.060 true we're working on it big things coming 2019 hell yeah i'm looking forward to it actually it's

01:00:31.660 um 2019 yeah it you have no idea yeah it's it's i'm cooking you have no no it's we're excited to

01:00:40.120 I want to see what you cook up, man, to be honest.

01:00:42.180 It smells like sweet potatoes.

01:00:43.160 There are some sweet potatoes.

01:00:43.820 They're ready right now.

01:00:44.780 You want some?

01:00:45.260 Is it really?

01:00:45.840 Yeah.

01:00:46.140 I knew it.

01:00:47.000 Shout out, Chef Katie.

01:00:47.980 Yo, thank you guys for watching.

01:00:51.360 This is going to be out.

01:00:52.400 Access Hollywood is going to be out tomorrow, yeah?

01:00:54.120 I mean, it's on every day.

01:00:55.180 Wait, it's not World of Dance.

01:00:57.020 What World of Dance?

01:00:57.720 My publicist is telling me to ask about World of Dance,

01:00:59.720 which you just hosted an entire season?

01:01:02.640 Hosted an entire season of, yeah.

01:01:04.120 Can you elaborate?

01:01:05.200 World of Dance, what is that?

01:01:06.920 World, it's a dance show.

01:01:09.600 Okay.

01:01:10.120 Oh, you want me to actually, okay, so it's a show on NBC.

01:01:14.820 It's a dance competition show with Jennifer Lopez, Derek Huff, and Neo.

01:01:18.920 Oh, wow.

01:01:19.460 They're our judges.

01:01:21.260 And you're the Ryan Seacrest of the show?

01:01:24.720 Yeah, like I'm the Scott Evans of the show.

01:01:26.440 It's really cool.

01:01:26.960 Hey.

01:01:29.000 Yeah, it's really cool.

01:01:30.720 When can we watch it?

01:01:32.700 March, I believe.

01:01:33.860 We're not really, I haven't been given an actual date, but I think it's spring 2019.

01:01:38.080 so I'm pumped because it's another opportunity for me and you know how you I talk about all the time

01:01:44.060 like I got clear about this is something I wanted to do World of Dance is something I wanted to do

01:01:47.740 and it was it didn't look like it was in the cards for me per se but I didn't let that be the thing

01:01:52.340 that stopped or dictated whether I would be able to be a part of it and so here we are now at the

01:01:57.780 end of 2018 and I'm the host of World of Dance very cool you know in a way that like a couple

01:02:03.680 weeks ago i wasn't the host of world of dance but that didn't stop me yeah right so i'm pumped

01:02:09.340 because the talent in this show is unreal i mean it's people from all over the world it's kids

01:02:15.120 and it's adults competing in the art that like fuels their life you know what i'm saying it's

01:02:22.280 like dancers are such an incredible kind of creators uh and usually wildly flexible i'm

01:02:30.640 flexible i figured yeah the splits exactly hey last question before i sign off last question

01:02:38.040 you have used the word clear clear multiple times throughout this interview and i noticed you have

01:02:44.320 it's a charged word for you it doesn't it doesn't mean what typically i would assume clear to mean

01:02:50.160 to most people you've used it in a very like inspirational sort of context what does that

01:02:55.100 mean to you when you say you you became clear I got really specific and I got specific in a way

01:03:01.780 that I made sure that the thing that I was focused on was in alignment with the gifts that I've been

01:03:07.600 given the blessings that I've been given and I wanted to in order to to be clear you have to

01:03:13.860 the all of the noise has to kind of go away right yeah and so access is a is a is a avenue where I

01:03:24.880 practice that world of dance is an avenue where i practice that fight the wackness is an avenue

01:03:29.860 where i practice that uh my friendships and and connections are avenues where i practice that i

01:03:35.360 want to just be the best i can be and offer a reflection of the grace that i've been shown

01:03:40.920 right like that's my purpose on this planet is to be a reflection of the of the shine that's been

01:03:45.860 shined on me and so i got clear about that that's dope i like that a lot hey clarity become clear

01:03:52.160 Yo thank you Scott Evans for real

01:05:24.700 a solution for that and that solution is our podcast free therapy i'm ben and i'm kevin and

01:05:45.280 Listen to Free Therapy with Ben and Kevin on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

01:05:51.200 Do you love golf? If so, you should listen to Three Putt Bogey.

01:05:55.300 I'm Chuck Bryant from the Stuff You Should Know podcast.

01:05:57.620 And I'm Adam Pranica from a couple of embarrassing hit Star Trek podcasts.

01:06:01.480 And each week on Three Putt Bogey, we're going to get into the bunker and get to the bottom of what is just so alluring and frustrating about the most beautiful game in the world.

01:06:10.100 So whether you're someone who pipes it on the driving range, but freezes up on the tee box.

01:06:14.320 or misses that three-foot putt when everything's on the line.
