00:01:44.940
What?
00:01:45.400
I could talk to you for an hour.
00:01:46.920

That's why I had to make yapping a job.

Scam Goddess!
00:02:02.040
You have made an entire career making fun of high net worth people.
00:02:06.680
When you're bullying up, people who are being bullied feel celebrated.
00:02:09.500
So when I make fun of billionaires for being billionaires,
00:02:11.960
they're like, ah, they love it.
00:02:14.720
I realize if I say absurd things in this eloquent British accent,
00:02:17.940
people will resonate.
00:02:18.640
The more you spend, the more you make.
00:02:22.800
And people were like, yes.
00:02:24.480
Stade is a small town in the mountains of Switzerland.
00:02:27.140
It became sort of a hideaway for the world's elite.
00:02:30.360
There's like a barrier to entry for peasants.
00:02:32.440
Peasants is a strong word.
00:02:33.500
Well, that's how they certainly looked at me and Mike.
00:02:35.820
What did the frown originate from?
00:02:37.600
It's basically like permanent displeasure of things.
00:02:39.980
Even if I'm having a great experience.
00:02:43.320
Zacharific, he's one of the greats online right now.
00:02:45.160
The girls, I mean, the girls he gets.
00:02:46.360
This motherfucker.
00:02:48.640
Manifested his way into being the cool guy.
00:02:50.940
When George roasted the CEO of Coinbase,
00:02:53.280
George had no idea who he was.
00:02:55.040
You say you have so much money and you can't buy hair.
00:02:57.900
He did not say that.
00:02:58.840
Yes, he did.
00:03:07.800
It's like how you start a fire with Flint.
00:03:11.300
I don't know what that means.
00:03:12.540
Hey, we're rolling.
00:03:13.940

00:04:46.820
went to basil he's one of the people you make fun of he went to basil and got influenza i can't wait
00:04:51.680
to get into it yeah there was a lot of influenza going around this year it was a big thing yeah
00:04:57.420
but uh influenza but uh i had to make it out here for this episode because i also equally love you
00:05:03.880
i'm excited to get into it i know you've been waiting a long time ironically stadi has been
00:05:08.680
on the show briefly and and equally ironically in a fireplace couch setting where when stadi
00:05:18.160
i was i was oh oh in god yeah so one of our famous stadi episodes it was the worst vacation
00:05:24.660
of my life ever me too i smashed my face oh that's still secretive kind of i mean we can
00:05:31.220
talk about i'm not going to show the video why not why not would you show it eventually i think
00:05:35.120
so but it's it's would you show a traumatic moment yeah throw it out there can we put it out there
00:05:40.160
you don't want to i'd rather not do we do we talk about it right now about that moment i mean we're
00:05:44.380
here i mean but if we talk about it we don't show it yeah we'll skip it really just fucking talk
00:05:49.700
you smashed you smashed your you absolutely smashed your face okay here's what happened
00:05:54.400
Okay.
00:05:54.740
So we were in Stad in Switzerland.
00:05:57.900
Logan wanted to go curling.
00:06:00.920
And instead of curling, he said, we're going to, oh, Stad guy, look.
00:06:05.340
He just outed you.
00:06:06.560
By the way, both of you are two strikes already.
00:06:09.400
I did.
00:06:10.100
Yeah, you already did it once.
00:06:10.920
We can just bleep it out every time.
00:06:12.260
So he said, Stad guy, look, let's play Quidditch instead.
00:06:16.540
And I was like, oh, that's an amazing idea.
00:06:18.460
so logan sticks the um the curling broom between his legs and just barely squeezes it together with
00:06:24.640
his knees and no matter how strong your knees are you like the leverage isn't there it's not there
00:06:29.260
no okay and it says grab my grab my stick so i grab the stick my guy put my weight on it slip
00:06:35.520
on my face fracture my cheek and horrible it was violent in front of girls and stuff yeah in front
00:06:41.420
of my ex oh that's why she's my ex she saw it then she just walked out crazy yeah we felt so
00:06:47.780
bad for you because like bro you're such a good kid like you come from a nice family in london
00:06:53.460
you got that accent what is that the what is it called the uh international school accent like
00:06:59.920
i don't think people who follow you really know who you are so it's nice to kind of peel back the
00:07:05.900
veil yeah and just have you as you when people meet you in real life do they know you're six
00:07:12.800
foot seven the short answer no no the first thing they say is whoa i didn't know you were so tall
00:07:18.840
so tall and also they say i didn't know you can smile because i'm always frowning in my videos
00:07:24.440
yeah but i'm pretty smiley in real life what is the what did the frown originate from like why
00:07:30.120
is the frown signify like rich people like so the frown started when i was filming my first ever
00:07:36.800
video and it's basically like permanent displeasure of things disapproval yeah nothing's
00:07:46.600
enough i always want better even if i'm having a great experience you'll barely see a grin
00:07:51.580
through the frown it's like you know you're like kind of smiling but you're still frowning it's
00:07:58.100
like even if it's great it's not good enough and that's the world of of high net worth people it's
00:08:04.520
so funny because you have made an entire career off of making fun of high net worth people and
00:08:11.620
your audience is so niche at least it started niche and you know i've been doing this content
00:08:17.340
forever and a lot of people have come in and out of the camp and you've been my friend since you
00:08:22.440
were 17 and i was 19 we met at the mtv movie awards like dates predates me yeah like one of
00:08:28.400
my oldest friends the only older friend is evan who's up there who's asleep in the upstairs and
00:08:33.660
bro when we met immediately just like hit it off and and you said something to me and you're like
00:08:39.280
it was it was this time next year and it was like a little motivating thing for you and I to go do
00:08:44.220
our things and then come back and go this time next year and I always thought you were so like
00:08:49.880
charismatic there was something about you that was natural on camera as well you weren't afraid
00:08:54.420
of the camera thank you and then you started this character by the way I interpreted as
00:08:59.220
gistad guy gistad what the fuck is gistad and and and how did you start growing this page
00:09:07.660
making fun of rich people so first of all thank you for your for your praise it means a lot um
00:09:13.660
i started gistad guy nearly six years ago now so four years after we met and honestly you
00:09:20.840
watching you grow and watching you be comfortable in front of the camera was a big part of
00:09:24.820
my comfort with the camera eventually so
00:09:29.120
stad guy or stad guy or g stad is as mike calls it stad is a small town in the mountains of
00:09:37.940
switzerland i had never been there growing up i went there for the first time a year after making
00:09:43.560
the page and it's secluded it's about two to three hours away from the nearest major airport in
00:09:50.920
Geneva and it was one of the first towns in Switzerland to have luxury hotels like 100
00:09:57.420
years ago and there was also a boarding school called Le Rosé which you may have heard of it's
00:10:04.940
a fantastic boarding school and happens to be very expensive that has a winter campus in Stade
00:10:12.440
so luxury hotels crazy boarding school started to bring a lot of high spending residents who'd
00:10:20.380
visit their kids and stick around but because it's this very old school ski town you also have a lot
00:10:27.760
of building laws so people couldn't build these crazy homes from the outside they would start
00:10:32.400
building homes for themselves that looked very modest on the outside but had crazy like five
00:10:37.000
level basements and these crazy homes and it became sort of a hideaway for the world's elite
00:10:44.600
and wealthy who wanted to be away from major cities,
00:10:49.320
be away from other people, and just do their own thing
00:10:51.360
hidden away in the mountains of Switzerland.
00:10:53.680
And it's pretty inconvenient to get to.
00:10:55.320
So you don't get much foot traffic.
00:10:57.220
People just mind their own business.
00:10:58.580
It's extremely expensive.
00:11:01.220
And it's really absurd more than anything.
00:11:04.820
It's absurd.
00:11:05.660
It's absurd.
00:11:06.600
The GDP of just Shtad is like, well, what?
00:11:10.300
Like a percentage of the world's entire countries.
00:11:14.080
The amount of high net worth individuals there in that little ski town is insane.
00:11:20.200
It's probably the most in the world, for sure.
00:11:22.400
We went there just to try it out for New Year's.
00:11:25.760
And we've, by now, have gotten the luxury and the opportunity, the blessing to go everywhere.
00:11:32.260
And I want to talk about it later in the episode.
00:11:34.460
Who has the flu?
00:11:36.020
Is it Mirio?
00:11:36.780
Because that's the 15th time.
00:11:38.100
I was drinking last night with Evan.
00:11:40.100
I was drinking last night with Evan.
00:11:41.520
We were drinking whiskey.
00:11:42.420
It was good, bro.
00:11:43.440
smoking a little bit you should put his mouth on just hanging out um it that was the only time
00:11:49.720
out of all the times through saudi through all these different places i've ever felt like i was
00:11:54.780
actually with the illuminati yeah like for real bro when i was in the basement of whoever that
00:11:59.520
russian oligarch's house that paid ghetto like two million dollars to do a 30 minute set madonna
00:12:04.780
was there like if there is a home for the illuminati it is in shot i mean trust me i'm as
00:12:11.260
shocked as you are and hence this entire thing like it's um it's a really crazy place it's it's
00:12:16.980
absurd in every shape and form and it's actually a contradiction in every shape and form it's like
00:12:22.080
swiss farmland nature billionaire hideaway um farmers wearing like traditional swiss clothes
00:12:29.600
furs and crazy outfits um understatement with overstatement it's like the extremes on each side
00:12:37.900
and just makes it so absurd as a place.
00:12:41.740
But is it rooted, in the end,
00:12:44.680
is it rooted in Swiss tax law at the end of the day
00:12:48.100
as to why it attracts,
00:12:49.700
I mean, that's a pretty well-known thing, right?
00:12:52.560
As to why it's so attractive to European, Asian money.
00:12:58.380
I think it's a small part of it.
00:13:00.360
A small part of it?
00:13:01.040
Yeah, because there's a lot of places
00:13:02.340
people can tax optimize.
00:13:04.000
Luxembourg.
00:13:04.300
There's a lot of tax-free places in the world.
00:13:06.260
But Switzerland generally is considered
00:13:07.880
to be like one of the pretty good but people people who i gotta get one good one out you're
00:13:14.080
fine wait would you want to try one of these hydration beverages from prime i'm already
00:13:21.940
drinking one well that's the energy version i'm ruining the 18 plus no you're good you're good
00:13:25.820
don't worry sorry thank you god bless you um yeah it's uh people who have homes there usually have
00:13:35.700
like six other homes right so they have a home in stade so actually speak a boat a place in monaco
00:13:40.520
place in london and they just jump between cities and there's a private airport there they fly out
00:13:45.440
of the private airport if you're flying commercial into stade like me like us it's actually super
00:13:51.660
inconvenient to get there yeah oh my god two and a half hour train you drive yes it's a pain so
00:13:56.720
people are everybody laughs at you when you get there exactly there's like a barrier to entry for
00:14:00.920
peasants absolutely i mean peasants is a strong word well that's how they certainly looked at me
00:14:05.060
and mike when we went no no no no no so much me mike and george when we went like by the way
00:14:11.640
self-made successful in america like i think we command a little bit of respect i think that
00:14:16.640
people showed you respect no they did no they did no they did they just they we were the jess we
00:14:21.780
were the jessers they found us funny there was this make a joke influencers yeah for sure it
00:14:27.280
definitely existed it wasn't disrespectful but it certainly was um they were entertained by the
00:14:34.540
oddity of what and how we were it was how we dressed and all of that yeah to be fair to them
00:14:41.680
i think you guys both played into that yeah yeah of course i've seen you guys be in environments
00:14:46.940
where you're poised and collected and you also play that hat well i'll i'll double down on it
00:14:53.540
so if i know that someone is like is either interested in it or like slightly embarrassed
00:14:58.100
by it i'll be like hey do you want to go shopping down at lauren's piano laurel piano oh oh
00:15:04.500
lauren's lauren's piano like i'll play into it you know what i'm saying because like i think it's
00:15:09.040
funny it's fine it's fine we quickly realized that was the value we brought like everyone else there
00:15:14.200
has actual real value money like monetary old money as well which is completely different than
00:15:20.580
new money i found like actually new money in america is worse respect wise than old money in
00:15:27.540
europe a lot of the kids were like really respectful and they knew how to act even though
00:15:33.080
you know their dad's worth 30 billion dollars but we found that if we could make these billionaires
00:15:37.460

Listen to Out of Character
00:19:21.080
from will ferrell's big money players network on the iheart radio app apple pods or wherever you
00:19:25.680
get your podcasts back to the show no but that home exists everywhere i want that's an important
00:19:30.100
lesson to learn for anybody watching this right now who is looking for some sort of like accessible
00:19:35.400
value from this episode today because we're going to be talking a lot about billionaires
00:19:38.720
and private jets and starino and a lot of this type of shit so like if you are looking for some
00:19:44.520
value the there is a way to combat alpha males and and billionaires out there and and being funny
00:19:51.580
and having good energy and being positive and putting that type of energy out there
00:19:55.000
is always a way that you can win over a room so that's actually what you've done how did you get
00:20:01.220
involved in these circles of high net worth individuals coming from a i mean you're well
00:20:05.360
off you're you had a great childhood your parents are still together like all admirable but how do
00:20:10.260
you get in these circles so first of all I'll acknowledge my my privilege I grew up as you said
00:20:18.460
privileged and adjacent to these environments so a lot of the stad world even though I didn't go
00:20:25.000
there growing up I was exposed to growing up in London and going to similar ski towns so I always
00:20:31.320
saw how those sorts of people operated but I was also always raised to read between the lines and
00:20:38.240
see the absurdity and see how the money doesn't actually buy happiness it can help people in many
00:20:45.060
ways but it can also destroy in many ways so I'm blessed with that perspective um and I realized
00:20:53.480
that comedy is a great lubricant for conversation it really is you know it's like you can be at
00:21:00.700
dinner telling us a great story monotonously and no one wants to listen you throw in a couple jokes
00:21:07.160
and it's a great story right and and shtad guys it's kind of that i think when you watch my videos
00:21:12.520
you're you're rarely laughing out loud it's usually like a little chuckle because comedy is my choice
00:21:17.480
of language and not my choice of product the product is a bit more like luxury journalism
00:21:23.040
in a way i'm kind of talking about luxurious experiences products places and using comedy
00:21:29.200
just to make it more digestible and to make it more relatable i also now talk a lot about
00:21:33.120
those manners you were talking about and the ways of operating i've learned a lot about etiquette
00:21:38.320
and manners from you yeah you're such a gentleman like you you would pour me water you'd pull out
00:21:44.160
chairs for people like it's always simple simple stuff but it's that it's that european class
00:21:48.900
that i as a very american boy from ohio just didn't really grow up with no you're very well
00:21:55.400
well now partially because of you um i wanted to ask you just a simple question sure because you
00:22:01.780
have seen it and you just mentioned it does money buy happiness i think um it's probably a very
00:22:10.320
common answer but money is an incredible tool that can make the good better and the bad worse
00:22:16.160
so it depends on people's mindset i think in a place like stard in particular you have people
00:22:21.960
that have all the money in the world and they choose to live a very wholesome modest life with
00:22:27.180
their family do very charitable things build beautiful homes that are built clearly for them
00:22:33.000
and not for status or for putting out anything and then you have the inverse where people
00:22:37.360
live very crazy lives with a lot of vice and they live this life of abundance and like gluttony
00:22:45.620
and money can make that a lot worse if you choose that path so I think it's whatever your mindset
00:22:53.940
is you guys are a great testament to that I've seen you when you were living in the grove and
00:22:58.160
you had very little to lead a life of excess and now that you can lead a life of excess you have
00:23:05.380
this beautiful wholesome life with your wife and daughter and you've chosen a good path so I think
00:23:10.300
you're a testament to that answer yeah I personally I would rather cry in a lambo I agree with that
00:23:16.780
for sure I think money is it's an amazing thing there's there's data for sure there's data and
00:23:21.800
studies about this by the way i've always been very interested i think we've talked about them
00:23:25.700
on the show before there's this there's a a median uh earnings that represents the highest
00:23:33.080
saturation of happiness in the united states and that number obviously changes by location and also
00:23:38.400
changes by every year right because of inflation cost of goods on and so forth but in in connecticut
00:23:45.440
i remember when the study came out i think it was somewhere around like 95 000 a year
00:23:49.440
and as you move down from that you lose the ability to cover the things that you need as
00:23:56.960
an individual or as a family member right health care food uh certain basic luxuries television
00:24:04.720
maybe a trip every here and there and as you move away from that median as you move away from that
00:24:10.120
average whichever one it is i can't remember uh you are now dedicating more having to dedicate
00:24:16.660
more time to earn that money and so at the end of the day unless you're talking about some hyper
00:24:23.060
affluent uh child who has gifted the money there actually is a right amount of money to to be
00:24:30.220
making to to find happiness because to be completely honest with you you and i we we come
00:24:37.000
across i mean you're pretty locked in nowadays as dad but we're we're outside and we run through
00:24:41.700
we run across so many freaking people and i'll be honest there's a bountiful amount of unhappiness
00:24:47.420
in the scene that we play in dude bountiful like like all these people out there watching this
00:24:51.800
are thinking to themselves like wow if i was only able to accumulate x amount of dollars
00:24:56.140
man it it just doesn't seem to translate into any long-form meaningful happiness because i
00:25:03.560
don't see it and i don't know you know i mean i think that
00:25:06.780
money won't necessarily buy happiness but the lack of money will very likely buy sadness and
00:25:14.300
misery and amazing and and pain right so i think that that's a non-negotiable people can't take
00:25:20.960
care of the people they love and take care of themselves then it's a whole different game do
00:25:25.600
you think the blanket statement you got to get that bread up is applicable for sure i think that
00:25:32.100
there's what's important from zero to ten no but to be honest what gets you from zero to ten and
00:25:38.520
and how you feel from zero to ten and ten to a hundred and a hundred to a thousand are very
00:25:42.560
different sets of problems and considerations and emotions um when i talk about shtad and
00:25:49.120
and these absurd communities this is like really like way beyond necessity this is excess in every
00:25:58.460
shape and form it's people that indulge in excess even for good or for worse like a bottle of water
00:26:05.200
in stad is like 30 francs which is like 32 oh it's the most oh it's the most expensive city
00:26:10.360
i've been to by by a landslide there's nothing this my whole shtick is about excess and craziness
00:26:17.160
and and and that that world so my two characters are a push and pull between old money new money
00:26:25.380
So I have Constance, who is tradition.
00:26:28.120
He's always frowning, Constance.
00:26:31.880
And he's tradition, manners, values,
00:26:38.900
a life lived through modesty,
00:26:42.900
and rarely accepting change.
00:26:46.660
He has things he loves, and he wants to stick to those things.
00:26:49.260
He rarely accepts new things in his life.
00:26:51.240
And he's representing that archetype of that old money person
00:26:54.220
you're talking about who's always disappointed and his cousin colton that i also play is yeah
00:27:01.460
he's he's he's he's a face that we were more exposed to more often he's also comes from this
00:27:08.120
world of high net worth uh life and he's uh and loves change loves hype loves modernity
00:27:15.040
loves celebrating color travis scott nikes and and that's the push and pull and they're both
00:27:21.460
fictional characters, but they're ambassadors of real life people and archetypes, right? So
00:27:26.880
this Constance type is addicted to excellence. And I think most people know someone who has
00:27:35.460
that addiction, who buys a MacBook Pro instead of a MacBook just to check their emails and gets
00:27:39.740
a Porsche Turbo instead of a Porsche to go to the grocery store. And that's Constance. He wants the
00:27:45.440
best of the best in every single category of his life. He gets the best clothes, the best watches.
00:27:49.560
but that's not that's not exclusive to the jet set and that's what i think is is applicable to
00:27:57.260
all of your characters is that aspirational greatness is a is a globally is a global thing
00:28:04.560
that expands across all socioeconomic barriers like everybody wants the best of everything i
00:28:09.880
mean you go and do when i first made money sell and drop i want to buy luxury shit you know what
00:28:15.560
i'm saying you want to go and buy jackie people people spend their first money they get on a on
00:28:19.320
a rolex or or go to louis or whatever you know what i'm saying like for sure that part is very
00:28:24.120
applicable and that's why and i and i'm curious how you do how you do this that's why i think
00:28:31.120
you're starting to see this growth on this page where where it's starting to leak really well
00:28:36.240
outside of the outside of the jet set and outside of the you know the the the upper echelon because
00:28:41.800
people are aspirational and people want to know about these places so how do you stay how do you
00:28:47.060
stay true to the global elitists while also satisfying your new trickling audience that
00:28:54.260
kind of is getting kicks out of it but also likes to learn so the first thing i will say is when you
00:28:59.400
said kind of make fun of this life when you're bullying up you guys will see this at dinners
00:29:05.060
when you're telling jokes it rarely feels like you're bullying people who are being bullied
00:29:10.580
feel celebrated so you could be like oh look at mike he's always getting the best shoes he's like
00:29:15.360
oh stop it but like but keep it coming you know he like he loves it you know and that's that's
00:29:20.300
what bullying up is like so when i make fun of billionaires for being billionaires they're like
00:29:25.280
oh you know they're like they want to listen in they love it you know so they're feeling
00:29:32.120
celebrated and people who are not in that position feel hurt because they're like oh this is obviously
00:29:38.120
crazy that the staff that work for these people these people have crazy teams of staff at their
00:29:43.100
homes they they love the content because like finally someone's making fun of my boss so there's
00:29:48.420
this healthy trickle down effect i think that people either feel celebrated or feel heard and
00:29:54.840
it's a nice balance sorry i'm i'm laughing over here because you're talking about bullying at
00:29:59.340
dinners and i was thinking about stod when george made that joke to brian armstrong yeah when george
00:30:07.140
when george when george absolutely roasted the ceo of coinbase founder and george and george had
00:30:13.640
no idea who he was so much money and you can't buy hair is that what he said he did not say that
00:30:19.640
he really they've never even spoken he just he picked the ball guy at the end of the table
00:30:26.560
well i don't know if he didn't really laugh at it but like i think he i think he it was a funny
00:30:32.280
it was a funny joke everyone else laughed so he might have been like
00:30:35.160
but but but it is that kind of like you you you can bully up the rich people that you're making
00:30:43.280
fun of or are poking you're not making you're poking fun of the absurdity of their lifestyle
00:30:47.780
and objectively it is absurd for for 99 of the world their lifestyles are absurd bro some of
00:30:52.520
the things we saw when we were in stad blew blew my mind 100 it's it's not real life yeah but
00:30:58.800
they're not they don't get ultra offended no but they don't okay they i mean every once in a while
00:31:03.040
you'll get someone who gets offended and honestly i'm happy about that because i'm trying to raise
00:31:07.200
awareness about the absurdity unfortunately a lot of people watch the videos that are literally about
00:31:12.020
them and they're like oh haha like that's so not me it goes right over their heads you know but
00:31:18.340
it's literally them so it's uh i hope people learn a thing or two in the process well this is where
00:31:24.520
the conversation in my eyes gets interesting because i'll approach this now as like social
00:31:28.400
media strategist when you first started making these videos they would get a little bit of
00:31:34.500
attention the numbers weren't incredibly crazy some of them would go viral but they spoke to
00:31:40.820
the people that were describing these high net worth individuals and the growth at first was
00:31:45.480
was slow but potent and you actually i think proved something in social media in that
00:31:52.420
who your audience is can have extreme value and even though at the time your following wasn't
00:32:01.300
huge the people that were following you had a lot of fucking money so you were a rare case where you
00:32:09.500
could speak to the most wealthy individuals on the planet even though your following was like
00:32:15.420
150,000 200,000 and you realize you had a little hack there because for the right brand attached
00:32:22.540
to you that person would then buy what you're telling them to buy what you're wearing i.e
00:32:27.740
lauro piano dude lauren's piano lauren's piano a high uh how would you even describe this brand
00:32:35.680
like a quiet luxury brand like a like lauro piano i think i would describe lauro piano as
00:32:42.560
understated luxury um made for the people who wear it not the people who see it which is a rare
00:32:49.960
thing in luxury these days and you've been on the lp train for a while for a while like five years
00:32:57.560
ago you're you're like yeah you gotta get these shoes right and then longer i feel like longer
00:33:01.420
a long time and so then you you started this page and how did the partnership with lp happen where
00:33:08.400
now you're you're essentially like an ambassador for them and dude like you alone have how 10x
00:33:16.820
their sales because of stad guy because of the audience you're speaking to that is that an
00:33:21.260
assessment that's a big i uh yeah i think i think that my storytelling about lore piano is definitely
00:33:29.480
definitely part of part of the growth but there's also some tailwinds of quite luxury becoming a
00:33:34.880
trend and me being well placed as a spokesperson for that um i think also the brand did some
00:33:43.000
incredible things and their their products are incredible so all i did was maybe put a little
00:33:47.600
flashlight towards it over the years 10x it's been a cool journey with them it's been it's been
00:33:54.760
cool to watch yeah because because you know in my eyes i i was always taught like most reach most
00:34:01.060
impressions most people possible yeah but you focus on the people who have money and if they're
00:34:05.900
paying attention to what you're doing you can really eating well shouldn't be complicated but

Listen to Out of Character from Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network
00:36:56.340
on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Pods, or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:37:00.000
Move the needle and you've proven that.
00:37:01.580
You have a partnership with Audemars Piguet, AP?
00:37:04.820
I do.
00:37:05.680
So on the topic of the smaller niche audience,
00:37:10.400
I think that my strategy is maybe unique to social media,
00:37:14.440
but it's typical in all other industries.
00:37:17.640
Like to think of restaurants.
00:37:19.340
Not every restaurant has a McDonald's strategy.
00:37:22.380
You know, there's luxury restaurants forever.
00:37:24.380
And they just want less customers who pay more versus more customers who pay less.
00:37:29.100
So it's actually a pretty normal way to run business.
00:37:31.440
It's just unique to social media.
00:37:33.780
Because social media by its very nature is supposed to be open access to everyone.
00:37:38.080
And because of the language I use in my videos, there was this automatic barrier to entry.
00:37:43.460
It was like a door for members club.
00:37:44.700
because someone who gets it would watch and say
00:37:46.780
I understand what this is about
00:37:48.600
and they keep watching
00:37:49.340
and people who don't get it would stop watching
00:37:51.760
so I had this gate at the front
00:37:55.240
of comprehension
00:37:56.380
and relating to this crazy world
00:37:58.420
that made my concentration
00:38:00.540
of these followers huge
00:38:02.180
so yeah like you said
00:38:04.200
I didn't have that many followers
00:38:05.520
but they happened to be
00:38:07.840
big ticket followers
00:38:09.160
and my first couple videos I started talking about
00:38:12.060
Laura Piana
00:38:12.500
because it's a real-life love for this character I'm portraying.
00:38:17.360
The real-life Stade guy is obsessed with L'Europeana.
00:38:20.620
And I grew up around these Stade guys, like my friend's dad,
00:38:24.860
my own dad in many ways,
00:38:27.120
a lot of people around me who were obsessed with this understated brand
00:38:32.320
and the excellent materials.
00:38:33.660
And the same thing for Audemars Piguet with the watches.
00:38:36.140
What did you say just then?
00:38:37.800
Audemars Piguet.
00:38:38.960
What?
00:38:39.120
A.P. Audemars Piguet.
00:38:41.380
That's how you pronounce it.
00:38:42.700
How?
00:38:43.600
Audemars.
00:38:44.720
Remember this video?
00:38:46.040
Audemars?
00:38:46.360
The video we did together?
00:38:47.280
Oh, yeah.
00:38:48.020
The watch video.
00:38:49.720
The watch video.
00:38:50.780
Audemars Piguet.
00:38:52.060
There you go.
00:38:52.960
But you speak French.
00:38:54.080
That's why you're doing all that.
00:38:54.800
I do speak French.
00:38:55.600
So actually, back to your point about the international school accent.
00:38:58.300
Yeah.
00:38:59.940
I've seen a lot of things about this on TikTok.
00:39:01.460
But the international school accent is basically kids who go to international schools
00:39:08.420
and are taught in a British-based system.
00:39:12.780
But they're exposed to American pop culture.
00:39:15.120
They listen to Impulsive and watch Disney Channel.
00:39:17.400
So they get the American twang mixed in with this British schooling
00:39:21.940
plus a third language at home that they speak natively,
00:39:26.120
which could be something Central Asian, Middle Eastern, Italian, French.
00:39:30.320
So they get this mixed-up accent that's very typical in international schools.
00:39:34.180
And that's why you sound like that.
00:39:35.380
Yes.
00:39:35.880
But what else do you speak?
00:39:38.420
skip why i like keeping some he's keeping it mysterious but you speak more languages i just
00:39:45.080
speak more language whoa you're mysterious like that it's nice i think i think the mystery of my
00:39:49.700
page adds a lot of fuel to the fire yeah but you you're here you ruined it i'm here just speaking
00:39:56.540
as myself and talking about the process i think this is a good a good segue actually because you
00:40:01.560
a couple minutes ago you brought up this uh this analogy of having this like gate this barrier to
00:40:06.180
entry being being able to understand the content and people who didn't get it would just turn away
00:40:12.060
right yeah but something that happened was that party inside the gates that the people who didn't
00:40:21.140
get it just turned away from got so big and so lively and and everybody that was looking inside
00:40:27.740
that at first would just turn away they were like wait now i kind of want to get it right
00:40:33.060
i want to understand the hype why are all these people going crazy why are they trying to shop
00:40:38.680
at lauren's pianos and wear audemars pickets you know what i'm saying and go and go to gstad
00:40:43.880
yeah for sure how do you i guess i kind of asked this question but i but i i want to recycle it
00:40:49.740
back and really understand it like how do you not become mainstream yeah like how do you continue
00:40:55.800
to satisfy this portfolio that portfolio that you've created right like it's like yeah it's
00:41:00.640
I mean, I think there's a few things to this.
00:41:06.980
One, I'll talk about what's on the outside.
00:41:15.180
No, he was probably caught in a clip for a fucking impulsive.
00:41:17.740
Who was it? What are you watching? What was that?
00:41:19.960
What was it, Kevin?
00:41:21.820
What was it?
00:41:23.440
Fucking sickle, man.
00:41:24.420
Go, go, dude.
00:41:25.600
Stog got him. Disrespect.
00:41:27.640
No, it's good. He's good.
00:41:28.380
So there's a few reasons for that.
00:41:31.420
One, I think I read a statistic that like 90% of the world's money was made in the past 10 years.
00:41:37.040
So there's a lot more people who made a lot of money and want to learn how to spend it
00:41:40.840
and want to see how other people spend it.
00:41:43.700
And as you know very well, people who make money recently often feel judged by those who made money a long time ago.
00:41:49.820
It's like this new money versus old money.
00:41:51.060
And they want to learn the ways of the old money people because they think that that's what the experienced spender lives like.
00:41:58.380
True or false, who knows?
00:41:59.920
Experience bender.
00:42:00.780
Right?
00:42:01.060
I mean, that's how people think.
00:42:03.100
And here comes this account, Stadguy,
00:42:06.480
that uncovers the secret world of high net worth people.
00:42:09.880
Four years ago, one of the greatest days of my life,
00:42:12.320
I got a notification on my Instagram
00:42:13.680
that Virgil Abloh followed me
00:42:16.300
and started to engage with my content.
00:42:17.740
I was so honored.
00:42:18.760
I've always been a big fan of his.
00:42:20.420
And he started commenting the modern Robin Leach
00:42:23.420
who had this TV show,
00:42:24.760
The Secret Lives of the Rich and Famous.
00:42:26.040
Lifestyle of the Rich and Famous.
00:42:26.840
Exactly.
00:42:27.700
Hey.
00:42:28.380
and he thought that Stadgei was the modern take on that
00:42:31.820
and that I'm uncovering this world but also keeping this gate.
00:42:35.140
So that's one of the tailwinds.
00:42:41.540
Also, most of my audience is now in the U.S.,
00:42:45.520
which makes sense because it's the fastest-growing economy,
00:42:47.920
and people in the U.S. have always been very curious about Europe
00:42:51.300
and European living.
00:42:53.240
And I'm uncovering a secret world like Stad
00:42:56.780
that's rarely been uncovered or Saint-Tropez or all these places.
00:43:00.060
So that's on the tailwind side.
00:43:01.420
On my side, I love that the party's getting bigger
00:43:04.180
and more people are engaging.
00:43:05.320
I think that started happening when I took a slight turn
00:43:08.580
to talking more about good manners, values, relationship advice
00:43:11.760
from the perspective of this shtad guy
00:43:15.680
who used to only really talk about consumerism mostly,
00:43:18.720
but now it's also about a way of living,
00:43:21.160
which is a deep part of this world,
00:43:25.440
of manners and treating people well for hopefully for a lot of people but sometimes not
00:43:30.300
and that opened up the gates the way I try to keep the gates a bit more closed
00:43:36.060
is by adding barriers to entry through language so you might notice in a lot of my videos I'll
00:43:42.620
start the video with bonjour mesdames et messieurs Constance the Stade guy here and bonjour mesdames
00:43:47.920
et messieurs is good morning ladies and gentlemen in French and for someone who's lives in in Miami
00:43:53.280
but vacations in Saint-Tropez in summer in the south of France, they get that.
00:43:58.560
The waitress said it to them when they were having breakfast, so they keep watching.
00:44:02.140
But someone who's never heard that before thinks, oh, wait, this is in a different language.
00:44:06.580
I'll skip.
00:44:07.440
So you're phasing out middle America.
00:44:09.680
I am trying to stay focused on you.
00:44:11.380
What are you doing for Danny in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, bro?
00:44:15.020
I hope he can learn a thing or two.
00:44:17.200
I'd love to meet Danny.
00:44:18.560
I'd love to meet Danny.
00:44:19.420
you know but i'm trying to keep the party contained even though i love the fact that
00:44:24.040
it's scaled and i'm so grateful for it i think that it's important to stick to a niche i think
00:44:28.460
a niche is is the way to go well guess what that niche has some company you got any beef in the
00:44:37.040
high value net worth space because there's a couple other people in the space right now
00:44:42.720
they're doing things a little bit differently it's great are you familiar with super snake
00:44:48.120
i am great guy guys friends yeah we're we're friends do you guys appreciate what the other
00:44:54.060
does yeah i think we're both playing different games in the same field sort of thing i think he
00:44:59.340
talks to a um a different type of of consumer who's a bit more party a bit more he talks a
00:45:07.800
little bit more to me yeah not not you know to be not i agree with you and i want to ask you about
00:45:12.540
this too and kind of segue into it because he definitely does and you know the memes are about
00:45:17.880
the dark side of basil and you know the hooli-doolies the prostitutes at f1 and this and
00:45:27.700
that it's very you know focused on that on that darker side i'm always been focused on more
00:45:32.640
family friendly my hashtag on every post is it's all family yep i've always wanted to be more like
00:45:38.780
shrek where you transcend ages how do you what one thing that has always been tricky i think for
00:45:46.360
for both for anyone at that plays in this podcast space and in in this kind of world
00:45:51.600
it's always hard for me to not tell the wildest stories from the back rooms from the from you know
00:46:00.860
the the after parties you know what i'm saying that because they are the best stories but i've
00:46:09.260
always felt like as soon as you start telling them they're gonna stop happening how do you
00:46:14.960
draw the line as to like what is acceptable to talk about regarding the world of the elites and
00:46:24.760
what is not acceptable and i don't mean that on some like weird like illuminati shit i just mean
00:46:29.320
like what what's what secrets are better left unshared i mean i feel like i'll never really
00:46:35.780
expose people or corner people in a negative light so i feel like even if i'm uncovering
00:46:42.060
something negative i'll try to pretend like my character is the one doing the negative thing
00:46:47.320
or one of my characters self-deprecation and sort of self-deprecation and sort of like offsetting
00:46:51.940
the attention from someone who could feel targeted because i'm not trying to be tmz you know um so
00:46:58.080
i try to also add the layer of fiction i think fiction is the strongest way of telling stories
00:47:05.940
and all types of media over the past 10,000 years.
00:47:10.220
It's like fiction leads books, movies, music.
00:47:13.400
For social media, for some reason,
00:47:14.760
it's always been this tiny, tiny subset.
00:47:18.040
And I think fiction is so powerful
00:47:19.480
because you can tell a real story
00:47:21.240
in a far more interesting way
00:47:23.280
by adding some salt and pepper
00:47:25.040
and adding some spices to your dish, right?
00:47:27.240
And I think that there's this addiction
00:47:30.240
to the authentic on social media
00:47:32.300
that's now being challenged
00:47:34.800
because people are realizing that those who are authentic
00:47:37.100
are actually often inauthentic.
00:47:38.600
So they're down to swing to the opposite side of the spectrum
00:47:41.220
and they're celebrating fiction.
00:47:43.060
And a great example of that is Zacharific.
00:47:45.360
I think he's actually excellent.
00:47:47.540
I think he's so good at what he does.
00:47:49.080
So humble.
00:47:49.600
He plays into the fiction.
00:47:50.240
He's so humble.
00:47:51.060
He owns his character.
00:47:52.900
I actually think he's one of the greats online right now.
00:47:55.980
For sure.
00:47:56.520
He's great.
00:47:57.200
So with a rock star like Zacharific,
00:48:00.120
I mean, his accomplishments are the list goes on and on and on.
00:48:04.020
and i i i aspire even to be as affluent and articulate as a guy like zachary i agree
00:48:11.880
i agree but um and the girls the girls i mean the girls he gets this guy's pulling the huss yeah
00:48:17.440
like the list again goes on and on i heard he has by the way a few homes in stadt right more than
00:48:24.460
one more than one oh my god really yeah that guy's a gangster so much money so i was gonna ask with
00:48:29.280
with with like a character like colton you know the i mean i here's my interpretation of colton
00:48:34.880
he's like a new money douchey rich kid exactly who has zero self-awareness about like what he
00:48:40.200
looks like precisely okay okay 100 so that's my like ohio interpretation of what colton is yeah
00:48:45.420
so like would a guy like colton beef with you know a rock star like zacharific like two guys
00:48:50.980
with money two guys who can pull any girl they want drive the cool cars in real life yeah those
00:48:56.540
types big ego big uh they they they feel challenged Constance on the other hand the
00:49:03.380
shtad guy in the room he feels elevated he feels like he's in the penthouse and they're in the
00:49:07.520
lobby so he'll stay quiet he'll stay to the side he'll mind his own business what is what does
00:49:12.020
Constance think of Colton he thinks he's he's on his own journey but he loves him he loves him
00:49:18.860
family you know they're cousins right they're cousins how did you come up with the character
00:49:23.440
of Colton like how did you how did you know you were like this you could be this funny funny bro
00:49:29.060
douchey guy and lose the international accent okay so so basically I think I've always thought
00:49:34.580
that accents carry prejudice positive or negative right but when you hear an accent you assume
00:49:39.880
things because of people you're exposed to with those accents so for example David Attenborough
00:49:44.280
of the documentaries and many others have taught us that like this eloquent British accent is like
00:49:50.120
wisdom, manners, etiquette, knowledge. So when Constance says something mediocre,
00:49:59.820
sounds profound. And that's real. You know, it's a real thing. People are speaking like
00:50:06.200
with these eloquent accents, you want to listen to what they say and you take it so well.
00:50:11.860
And that's where his wisdom videos, where I sit at these desks and Constance says
00:50:15.640
these profound things i was on on a boat uh a very very big boat
00:50:21.900
with uh with a guy who owns the boat and everyone's talking and he starts to speak
00:50:28.920
and everyone everyone stops and listens you know and he says like hard work
00:50:34.480
pays off everyone's like they get so amped up because the guy owns the boat you know
00:50:42.060
So like if any of his guests said anything that was actually profound, no one would care.
00:50:46.220
And that's when I started to realize like with this delivery and of course with the boat.
00:50:50.960
The boat's a big part.
00:50:52.180
The boat's a big part.
00:50:53.560
With the boat and this whole thing, people really like will believe anything anyone says.
00:50:58.080
So I was like, what if Shtad guy sits at a table and starts spewing random wisdom?
00:51:02.920
How will people feel about it?
00:51:04.220
So my first video with the wisdom was the more you spend, the more you make.
00:51:09.920
well sorry the more you the more you spend the more you make and people were like yes i agree
00:51:17.360
i was like you agree this is supposed to be ironic but i realized that you you wear the lower piano
00:51:22.200
you wear the not be gay you're sitting at this desk and people like they resonate i was like let
00:51:25.700
me make no but it's not but it's not but it is true it's just so obvious how what how is that
00:51:31.240
true you're saved what i mean no the no the more you spend the more you make it is a is a common
00:51:36.220
business theory you have to spend money to make money yeah so you're constantly not the more like
00:51:39.800
you should invest a bit and still be reasonable but like what it's what i was saying is make 10
00:51:43.720
spend 12 got it yeah which is absurd right right but listen you know so so basically i realized if
00:51:49.780
i say absurd things in this eloquent british accent people will resonate you know so constance
00:51:55.640
fantastique with this french and the trilingual and then i thought i need a push and pull yeah i
00:52:03.320
need i need the devil to the angel i need the antithesis and who is that it's it's the american
00:52:08.440
hype beast with all this chrome hearts money you know and it's cousin colton yeah what is good guys
00:52:14.700
cousin colton here and he's just like a chill dude he loves life loves to celebrate everything
00:52:20.580
where's he based he's in la right he's he's la new york upper east side hamptons miami
00:52:25.500
He's my guy.
00:52:26.320
He's taxed off my thing.
00:52:27.320
I see him every day.
00:52:29.420
You see him every day.
00:52:30.120
I'm with him every day.
00:52:31.440
Exactly.
00:52:31.740
He's my favorite person.
00:52:32.900
And in fact, you know what's funny?
00:52:35.540
We started this episode with you guys talking about your friendship.
00:52:39.820
Yeah.
00:52:40.900
Me and you didn't start off on that same tone.
00:52:43.720
We did not start off on a good note.
00:52:46.060
We started off – because I think when we – all right.
00:52:50.260
So we met in a very different time.
00:52:52.860
and we met under we met under like the uh the brutal reign logan paul not the current like
00:53:03.000
and there was a lot of like infighting and like distrust and war and like it was that guy with
00:53:09.780
the voice in the house hey logan bro you're talking about one of the most famous characters
00:53:15.040
in the history ron burke we're not doing this shit we're not fucking doing right now right
00:53:20.800
Him and Mike and Eve.
00:53:21.980
Evan's laughing.
00:53:22.840
That's too funny.
00:53:23.160
Oh, me and –
00:53:24.080
That's too funny.
00:53:24.860
Bro, there will be books about all of this, like long books, bro.
00:53:28.320
But I think more than anything, we both – when we met, we both were vying for –
00:53:36.920
we can be honest about it now.
00:53:38.340
We were both vying for a friendship.
00:53:40.160
And I think there was a lot of that kind of like –
00:53:41.580
What does vying mean?
00:53:42.360
Just like trying to get –
00:53:44.040
Battling for friendship.
00:53:45.780
I don't think so.
00:53:46.360
I think it was part of it, dude.
00:53:47.860
Really?
00:53:48.680
I don't fucking know.
00:53:49.280
I don't think so.
00:53:49.640
But more so, but more so.
00:53:51.540
I think you and I just had a hard time purely because we were on slightly different vibes.
00:53:58.240
I think you were very high energy.
00:53:59.660
I was fairly low energy.
00:54:01.160
And I think we both met somewhere in the middle years later.
00:54:03.320
Well, I wanted to say that, but I also think that we represented like such differing sides of the world.
00:54:12.400
Like Constance and Colton.
00:54:13.720
100%.
00:54:14.160
And that's so that's why.
00:54:15.460
I hope not, dude.
00:54:16.100
I hope I'm not Constance.
00:54:16.600
But that's why I bring it up right.
00:54:18.160
No, no.
00:54:18.400
But to me, you were because I was from, you know, you know, food stamps and crack and porn stars.
00:54:25.120
And I met this guy who is, you know, ski lifts.
00:54:29.560
And as I say that, it appears on the screen.
00:54:32.020
You are in real life more like Constance.
00:54:37.760
He's a blend.
00:54:38.800
You are a blend.
00:54:39.520
But you do you understand that upper echelon of life.
00:54:43.100
and and and you you did flow in and around that world while not being like one of those people
00:54:49.020
and so like certainly for everyone who knows you at least our friends like you are like you know
00:54:54.740
you're a shy guy you know how to act but it was a but it was a clash right at first and then and
00:55:01.460
then slowly but surely we realized we're like wow dude he's funny and then we he would come around
00:55:09.340
more often you're at the house and i would see you traveling and out and then years later
00:55:14.440
you would call me and be like hey man like i'm thinking about leaving do we talk yeah you could
00:55:20.740
say i think this is i think it's fascinating because because dude you did you had a whole
00:55:24.260
life before your social media career took off and and and a successful life and the funniest part
00:55:28.600
about you i think is that you're actually so conservative and take your time you make smart
00:55:35.420
strategic decisions very low risk doesn't drink doesn't drink doesn't smoke smoke you're you're
00:55:41.260
you're a great guy who's very risk adverse and you had a regular ass job working at app no an
00:55:50.060
awesome ass job an awesome an awesome job but for for sure like a prestigious job though you worked
00:55:54.460
at apple right in the international pay uh apple pay yeah no it was it was uh an amazing phase of
00:56:00.940
my life like i when i started stad guy it was just for fun before i get to that actually thank you
00:56:06.660
for your for your kind words well i didn't even get to him i didn't even get to him i just i but
00:56:11.100
i think we're going in the right direction i appreciate it so i um i worked on a startup for
00:56:17.100
a while um when i had first met you i just started working on it it did well for a bit and then i
00:56:21.260
went bust and then i got a a desk job at apple working on apple pay growth and apple is a very
00:56:27.840
secretive company that doesn't really love people to be exposed to the camera unless they're part
00:56:35.660
of the process so the fictional world of stadgai and the privacy of stadgai really helped with
00:56:41.160
that where i could work by day and film videos by night i feel like batman i mean batman is a
00:56:47.660
stretch i'd say more like budget hannah montana you know yeah yeah and um and i started filming
00:56:53.900
these videos and two years in they started to pick up and i could finally take the leap of faith
00:57:00.780
once stadgai became lucrative and i could justify quitting my job and doing this full time and
00:57:06.260
and living off of stadgai and the businesses i start on the back of it so what happened when
00:57:12.280
your boss at apple found out that you were also making these ridiculous social media videos
00:57:16.840
he was pretty supportive he was yeah i think so i mean at least that's what it seemed like to me i
00:57:22.800
think people are generally excited for people going on their own path and apple is uh is generally a
00:57:33.540
very cool place to work it changes my my way of thinking about things entirely what what was the
00:57:39.200
ultimate deciding factor that led you to quit your your well-paying job you were torn yeah
00:57:46.320
Yeah, I think I've had the blessing of perspective growing up
00:57:52.460
and seeing how money can do great things
00:57:56.980
and how the lack of it can also do bad things.
00:57:59.480
So I've experienced ups and downs.
00:58:01.100
And I think that the desire for stability
00:58:08.360
was such a big part of me getting employed in the first place.
00:58:11.400
I wanted to have a stable life and have this job
00:58:15.560
and have that consistency.
00:58:17.520
And it made me very scared to take the leap of faith
00:58:19.640
to become an entrepreneur and do Shtad guy full time.
00:58:23.400
So really I sat on the thought of quitting
00:58:25.500
for a really long time.
00:58:28.580
And I actually briefly joined Coinbase after Apple,
00:58:31.360
after we met Brian and Shtad.
00:58:34.080
And actually, so I left Apple,
00:58:35.960
went to Coinbase very briefly
00:58:37.000
and quit all of that two months in.
00:58:40.140
Really because of financial confidence.
00:58:42.700
I think that hedging risk when you have a pretty good job
00:58:48.680
and it means a lot to you is important
00:58:50.620
and not to take a ridiculous leap of faith
00:58:52.740
and just go do something like social media.
00:58:54.780
I think you should wait until you de-risk it a bit.
00:58:57.420
And I de-risked it over two, three years.
00:59:00.760
And only once Shtadga was paying me enough could I justify it.
00:59:04.860
Best advice in the entire world.
00:59:06.180
Yeah, it's good advice.
00:59:07.300
He did the same.
00:59:08.500
I call it calculated risk.
00:59:10.060
I did the same as well.
00:59:11.040
He did too.
00:59:11.700
yep like like we all had like a viable uh plan b seemed to be like it could be plan a now yeah
00:59:17.700
that's exactly what it was so side hustle becomes main hustle yeah so let's run it and i even and
00:59:21.700
even ironically i always even found a way to keep my main hustle that and made that my side hustle
00:59:28.280
after i left that's that's great so i would still i would find a way like when if when i left love
00:59:32.880
sack and and joined you consulted for them right i had i got a consulting deal with them so for the
00:59:38.280
first year I left lovesack I was actually getting paid by them to do remote work for them while I
00:59:42.220
was doing most of the time here and exactly that's great so so it is interesting because
00:59:47.600
uh in a way I feel like you've you've you've faked it and then made it and it's so interesting
00:59:55.500
because you you started making fun of these people and their and their luxurious lifestyles
00:59:59.840
and the word is luxury and now you're living that luxury lifestyle and and you did fake it
01:00:06.120
and then you made it and so how do you feel about the idea that you're one of the people now that
01:00:11.180
you make fun of actually i'm not one of the people i'm not one of the people at all but you but you
01:00:18.300
got levels in between that is that is true but dude like you are everywhere all over the world
01:00:25.220
at the coolest spots all the big events with all the supermodels like you know you see it you're in
01:00:32.260
it and and i mean you know like zacharific i'll i'll be honest i i draw uh parallels between you
01:00:40.380
guys because well because this guy was was essentially like you know faking he was he was
01:00:44.740
this character and then i see him like actually out and about getting axes getting into clubs
01:00:50.360
getting girls i'm like this motherfucker manifested his way into being the cool guy and now he is
01:00:56.220
that's cool it's it's it's it's cool to see yeah for sure i think i think above everything i'm
01:01:00.840
grateful and blessed to to be in this position um i think another thing i that's part of that
01:01:08.500
gratitude is the perspective of seeing that there isn't really that golden light at the end of the
01:01:15.060
tunnel you guys know that in this world like there isn't a party that's missing that's going to change
01:01:19.920
your life or an event that's missing it's wait a sec what i don't think he understands maybe he
01:01:24.600
doesn't get it wait wait that one that one party that one moment doesn't actually exist no no no
01:01:32.500
no i thought you have to do every single one you can't wait can i can i can i do a little exercise
01:01:39.380
with you please can i just fire like a couple things off of you sure okay when i say i'm gonna
01:01:45.940
just say a word you just let me know what immediately comes to mind star you know cool
01:01:51.280
guy chiltern hotel in london you're just saying what they are come on what do you want me to do
01:02:00.680
associate oh that's fine you can do that if you want but i yeah like have
01:02:05.920
in in saint jeff yes oh man smells like puke not for me people are just waiting on the stairs
01:02:13.820
all day uh faisal who's that faisal oh in saudi yeah great guy the alpina beautiful hotel will
01:02:24.300
mackers great guy i just wanted to launch some of these like these like scene things that you
01:02:32.000
see what your response was uh no it's fun i think um yeah will mackers great guy i think the scene
01:02:40.300
generally is um it looks a lot more sparkly on the outside than it is on oh yeah dude for sure
01:02:45.960
there's influenza yeah there is so it's breeding i think going to all these places and doing all
01:02:52.520
these things if you have the wrong head on your shoulders it can go down a very dark path and
01:02:56.320
we've seen it many times but if you can go into these places with the right mindset energy where
01:03:02.060
it's part of work part of an experience and not your identity to just travel around the world
01:03:07.500
going through these f1s and things for me really it's it's work and i'm so blessed that my work is
01:03:12.080
also fun and glamorous and cool but when i'm there i'm really excited about going back home and being
01:03:17.680
with friends and hanging out with you guys and family you know see i just i just the all jokes
01:03:24.040
aside go thing to thing right same way but i feel extremely good after i leave every event because i
01:03:32.600
always have a new guest for the show i always have a new connection yeah i do get influenza
01:03:38.640
but i but i feel i feel like i'm able to work the i get a ton i get a ton of stuff done in the rooms
01:03:45.920
and a lot of people don't a lot of people to your point a lot of people go and they
01:03:49.460
do to see they spend money on girls exactly right they they stay at the satai for you know a week
01:03:57.260
and a half and then they yeah it's a fantastic fantastic i think you have to you have to milk
01:04:01.600
every opportunity right so if you're at one of these places and these good things rarely last
01:04:09.280
forever make sure you milk every second you meet the right people you you like milk make the most
01:04:13.600
do you like milk i do like dairy milk i i like dairy milk you're drinking dairy milk you had
01:04:19.440
the milk in stad oh my god you've had it i've had it with you it's very good very good milk wow
01:04:26.420
oh the fondue at the stade palace very good also very good um who gets more huzz colton or
01:04:33.280
constance what does huzz mean the huzz just just ignore him he forgot he's 30 who gets more girls
01:04:40.420
constance or colton yeah i think in practice colton because the modern girl loves that toxic
01:04:48.680
guy but constance you know he's a good valued man he's a family man he's honest i think he deserves
01:04:54.440
more than Colton does
01:04:56.340
but you know
01:04:57.600
it's rarely the case
01:04:58.620
I like the mics
01:04:59.400
the mics get all the girls
01:05:00.460
the Coltons

Oh, a la poubelle
01:05:47.660
A la poubelle
01:05:48.340
Calling a week-long trip
01:05:50.540
to Mykonos a vacation
01:05:51.580
A la poubelle
01:05:53.080
so it's all just i feel like i feel like you do get a lot of inspo from what mike's doing
01:05:58.440
yeah but it's not a mike target to be honest like i certainly see human beings
01:06:03.560
human beings generally feel like they're a lot more unique than they are and my page is like
01:06:08.440
testament to that like we we even stad guy who's this like fictional character who's so absurd no
01:06:14.320
one even knows a real guy who's sitting there frowning and hating on everything right yeah but
01:06:18.560
still they still relate to what he says for sure it's um we all have a lot i love the alliance i
01:06:25.920
love my dj friends you've got some too you're friends with the kind of music guys all the big
01:06:29.680
jokes and they're great the kind of music guys are awesome they're crushing it they're they're
01:06:33.080
really doing great they actually have a very similar audience to stade guy for some there's
01:06:36.880
a lot of overlap i mean they're they're they're like it it seems like every year it's kind of
01:06:41.680
like a new like it ensemble or group or dj like i remember it was it it has been still kind of is
01:06:50.100
rufus and rufus is doing their world tour 2025 which kicks off i think in march and kind of
01:06:58.680
music has just been insane and now pausa has had a huge year as well just crushed it whatever dude
01:07:05.260
i'm not a big party guy no but you know at all no but you know but you pay attention to that you
01:07:09.060
pay attention to that yeah i think that's that's fairly american what what is i i didn't know a
01:07:15.360
lot of it's a couple of those names you're mentioning rufus i know rufus this all i was
01:07:20.000
gonna say i don't know how do you have uh enough social energy to like talk with people when you're
01:07:25.780
out and about because because because for me like alcohol is a tool in that way yeah you know it i
01:07:33.160
don't i'm a dad now i don't really give a fuck but if i drink a little bit like i'll have some
01:07:38.140
pretty good conversations but but you don't drink and you're always out and about yeah i think i i
01:07:43.820
i've really practiced ending conversations quickly if i don't see them being fruitful
01:07:51.200
and by fruitful i don't mean like i'm gaining something i mean like
01:07:54.660
a conversation i'll even enjoy having energy and have the energy for it so i try to protect my
01:08:00.660
energy if i meet someone and they're immediately showing off or like giving me this energy that i
01:08:05.680
i don't really align with i'll try to just end it and move away and if i meet someone that's great
01:08:11.100
there's always like a great person in a room they usually happen to be a bit more quiet especially
01:08:15.580
in the rooms that you're in yeah and um i really enjoy talking to them and learning and it's usually
01:08:20.840
a great time honestly i'm blessed i'm meeting pretty cool people when i go to these places
01:08:24.620
so i've i've happened to have stumbled upon this life path and job that brings me to good people
01:08:31.600
so you know what i like to see as your friend um and just like anyone doing social media i like i
01:08:38.400
like to see you building your own businesses now capitalizing you know like like like i said before
01:08:42.880
you 100x laura piano and and that was 100 you're doing i appreciate that and tell me about the
01:08:48.800
vicuña the vicuña is a beautiful animal that lives in south america that is delicately sheared once
01:08:57.220
every two years and it has the finest wool of any natural fiber in the entire world which makes it
01:09:05.720
extremely soft uh loropiana have fibers that are finer than vicuña now but they're through
01:09:12.100
generations of selective breeding they have this amazing line called the gift of kings oh my god
01:09:17.900
which is selectively bred merino wool which traditionally as you guys know merino is like
01:09:22.500
not super rare at all but why'd you say as you guys know but i used to i literally like i said
01:09:29.820
i used food stamps to buy cheese i mean look at you now i mean i had eight pairs of these
01:09:35.200
travis's they don't have merino wool is that like is that like better than cashmere no merino wool
01:09:40.680
is typically not better than cashmere but there's very few merino sheep that have dan merino like a
01:09:46.180
genetic privilege
01:09:47.080
fucking
01:09:48.400
we'll skip to the next one
01:09:50.540
the point is it's very impressive
01:09:54.260
and amazing tech goes into a lot of these luxury
01:09:56.520
businesses so very few luxury
01:09:58.500
businesses I think are strong
01:10:00.500
enough in product to stand out
01:10:01.780
a lot of them are just strong on brands
01:10:04.380
which I think is not true luxury I think that's hype
01:10:06.460
no no no I agree
01:10:07.520
that part makes sense
01:10:09.140
that's an LP sweater you got on
01:10:11.960
I'm actually I think head to toe right now
01:10:13.620
so what were your outfit cost right now
01:10:16.080
in totality please you got to do it bro you're unimpulsive the layman wants to know because
01:10:22.100
because you're so understated but bro i'll speak for you that's got to be a seven to eight thousand
01:10:27.920
dollar outfit no possibly come on man possibly my man's living that was an incredible answer
01:10:34.700
possibly that was an incredible answer but look you've done it now you now now you've you've taken
01:10:38.600
your learnings and and you're um capitalizing on this audience you've built and you've built now
01:10:43.540
your own luxury brand I have Pubelle tell me about Pubelle I think it's amazing so Pubelle
01:10:48.100
came from my catchphrase a la poubelle which people kind of know me for now that's actually
01:10:53.400
the first spike of virality I had on the page by saying things and phrases that Constance the
01:10:58.940
guy disapproves of and at the end saying a la poubelle which in French means to the trash
01:11:03.120
and it's him trying to push good manners good values good ways of living most of them completely
01:11:09.500
absurd um and also showed his disapproval of things with his frown and his outfits
01:11:14.860
so he says like you've said if he looks at the bill for more than five seconds
01:11:21.140
if he looks at the bill for more than five seconds a la poubelle and um because of course
01:11:29.660
the absurd constant should pay without consideration yeah yeah and through that i realized that the
01:11:35.880
these Alipubel videos were creating friendships and bonds between people when they would joke
01:11:40.800
about these videos and they would two people would like the sport padel and love it and bond
01:11:45.840
over it or they'd love the game of backgammon and bond over it and sometimes those things were like
01:11:50.180
generic like loving sushi and sometimes they were super obscure and unique to the world of
01:11:55.280
shtad guy like vicuña so I realized people were bonding over these absurdities and I thought what
01:12:00.740
if someone could wear their absurdities and wear their interests on on jewelry and the traditional
01:12:08.180
charm bracelet has charms that kind of dangle which makes them slightly less masculine also
01:12:14.900
the sound most guys that follow me wouldn't want something like that so i came up with this design
01:12:20.320
where the charms are directly in between the links all the links are sterling silver all the charms
01:12:25.380
sterling silver and their hand painted with enamel on the sterling silver so even though
01:12:30.940
they look playful and fun and colorful and and youthful um they're they're very well made and
01:12:37.600
people wear the things they love now so they wear this this riva aquarama which is the boats that
01:12:42.400
are on lake como they wear a small vicuña they can wear and there's all these different options
01:12:48.340
for charm charms to buy right that represent your personality exactly we have like 80 charms in the
01:12:52.600
80 sick 80 sick yeah but but let's not forget these things are pricey intentionally though
01:12:59.600
correct yeah i mean the the it is it is sterling silver and hand painted um so the price is fairly
01:13:07.420
high but a lot of my customers are actually buying lots of them now and decorating their their hand
01:13:12.360
bags usually air mess birkin bags because the charms are really in right now and they wear their
01:13:16.920
interests and the things they love on these bag chains what's what what are we talking about for
01:13:22.220
one of these bad boys just for for a charm itself each charm is about eighty dollars oh it's not
01:13:27.820
too crazy but you to make a bracelet you need several charms okay so a completed set somewhere
01:13:32.720
around six or seven hundred dollars okay people stack them they were three or four they put them
01:13:36.380
on their bag so people end up spending like one two thousand yeah that's it that's aspirate it's
01:13:43.080
i love that i love that price point you know what else is interesting too when when did you put those
01:13:47.640
out three months ago uh but when did you start ideating two years ago okay and always kind of
01:13:53.800
looked with that square uh um connector yeah link it's funny because really like in the past
01:14:01.980
six to eight months i think tiffany's dropped hardware which i don't know if you've seen this
01:14:08.500
or not but it's it it's a very similar no i mean square link it's it's almost like a masculine like
01:14:15.200
a bulky masculine link it's interesting that they copied you no you didn't copy me at all
01:14:20.560
the link link jewelry's been around forever no no no i just know i mean with that thick square
01:14:25.960
with the thick square no just so now they owe you as much money as lp does no one knows me
01:14:30.800
no one knows me anyone 20 000 so what can i have those some of those please of course amazing here
01:14:37.600
you go wait wait wait you're just gonna give it to him make him make him buy it uh no i'll buy
01:14:43.100
charms but just give me something to start you should actually talk about what happened to yours
01:14:47.100
i feel horrible i gave you i feel horrible well here's what happened he sent he sent me and nina
01:14:53.160
poobel yeah the bracelets i didn't realize they were like very expensive and so we were just
01:14:59.580
playing around different use cases put them on the wrist put them on nina's bag put them on the
01:15:04.960
on the dog as like a little like collar and man dog went out running around the woods dog came back
01:15:11.380
a la poubelle shit was gone oh my god shit was gone two thousand dollar bracelet gone somewhere
01:15:19.640
in the woods that's actually a necklace so you can you can combine the links to make anything
01:15:24.080
as long as you want as short as you want do you have do you have a uh you got a cheeseburger
01:15:28.580
i do have a cheese of course of course i do any any syringes for mike have you thought about being
01:15:35.200
more like more fringe more risque like that i think this i don't think anyone wants to celebrate
01:15:39.900
that on their jewelry so bright surprised bro really no you wouldn't be surprised i think you
01:15:45.320
put that on it's a necklace i wouldn't know how to put it on you just combine the links in the
01:15:50.600
back you know in fact i do know how to put this on yeah i don't know how to put this on what would
01:15:55.680
i do with these two ends you just there's little clips you just clip them dude so what now you're
01:16:01.660
asking yeah what now what now actually because you just started this business yeah this necklace
01:16:07.100
business yeah well there's half and and and you have these two characters and you can speak to
01:16:14.780
really important high net worth individuals what do you do with that i uh continue pushing and um
01:16:23.820
i think that the comedic tone of voice is going to continue to be a tone of voice but really it's like
01:16:30.540
kind of like luxury journalism and i think that there's a lot of stories to tell about this world
01:16:35.820
the world's unfortunately becoming more and more polarized so there's more and more curiosity about
01:16:43.280
this this uh sort of lifestyle for better for worst and um i want to keep telling stories
01:16:50.760
adding some humility adding some comedy to it and promoting businesses in the process so and the
01:16:56.960
0.1 percent has become so demonized over the past couple years vic you know i think the 0.1
01:17:02.340
is the victim right now for sure i mean
01:17:05.540
dude it's just i feel bad for these people dude that's why tonight i'll be going to saudi arabia
01:17:13.240
to help out our fellow saudi brothers and sisters that's absolutely right um
01:17:18.880
do you feel like do you feel like one day you're gonna pull back the veil completely
01:17:25.040
because like i still think there's a whole other side too that people aren't seeing
01:17:29.620
i mean i'm here right so no but still
01:17:32.340
i'm curious what do i still think i still you're still you're still very much i think like
01:17:38.880
a little reserved i could tell well this was all business focus we didn't really get into his
01:17:44.540
his life and his his girls and well not like that yeah you're you're a chill guy but i don't know i
01:17:52.860
i i there's way more oh i said your names oops no i'm the only one who didn't we gotta we got
01:17:59.460
just so you know i think there's still a lot more shtad guy for people to see yeah i think so too
01:18:04.040
i think that trickling the story slowly is a good thing i agree you know i totally agree i i think
01:18:11.360
um back to apple i think apple are the best storytellers in the world because they tell
01:18:15.360
their own story so carefully him him apple and like cody rhodes oh yeah i don't know cody rhodes
01:18:21.100
a wwe superstar okay fine he's he thought lana rhodes when you said that no no she's a good
01:18:26.720
storyteller okay there you go um so i like i like that slow trickle trickle effect yeah um it's fun
01:18:34.220
man if we had done if we had really done this like deep dive show the three of us like three
01:18:40.040
years ago it would have been such a dramatically different show what do you mean it just would
01:18:46.440
have been such it just would have been we would have talked about girls the entire time really
01:18:51.700
Yeah, I think.
01:18:54.420
Do you want to do that?
01:18:56.280
No, I don't think there's much to say.
01:18:57.680
No, there's not.
01:19:00.400
Well, now there's not.
01:19:01.660
That's what I'm trying to say.
01:19:02.760
Now I'm going to, you know.
01:19:04.300
Yeah, we're all locked down, bro.
01:19:06.160
I have a child.
01:19:07.180
I'm single right now.
01:19:09.100
How's that?
01:19:10.580
It's interesting.
01:19:12.160
It's cool.
01:19:12.420
Like I'm traveling to all these places, so I'm meeting a lot of great people.
01:19:16.620
But because I'm traveling to all these places,
01:19:18.680
I rarely get the chance to spend a lot of time with someone.
01:19:20.940
i think you're the ideal guy i think you're a nice guy i think you see both sides of the
01:19:26.640
no no bro you're a catch you're an absolute catch i bet you're out there breaking hearts right now
01:19:31.420
no please enough enough gas up no one final absurd story help just to help just to put
01:19:37.320
that together for you during covid there was a two-week minimum stay at hotels in switzerland
01:19:44.540
yeah okay and students of la rose that absurd boarding school in stade the winter campus in
01:19:52.620
stade uh really wanted to have a slice of pizza but restaurants were closed and they love the
01:20:01.600
lobby of one of these beautiful hotels in stade called the alpina so these students who come from
01:20:06.420
very wealthy families have unlimited budgets to spend just so they could have pizza or the dinner
01:20:13.140
they wanted and stade would get a room at the hotel for 14 nights the room rate is like 2000
01:20:21.940
plus per night never go into the room eat in the lobby and go home these are like 14 15 year olds
01:20:28.020
so that's the level of absurdity that is inspiring my content in a place expensive like slice of
01:20:34.420
pizza very expensive size yo that's fucking ridiculous it's really ridiculous well what
01:20:38.640
are they going to do instead eat walley's the burger the burger you hate it oh man poor wall
01:20:45.240
that sucks because they have so much potential wall it's oh yeah oh well and they know but they
01:20:50.140
crush it they crush it yeah but the product is trash oh it's their burgers whack and it sucks
01:20:57.020
because they got that cute little shack and it's right in the center i think i think they should
01:21:00.980
focus on uh qc a little bit more yeah quality control yeah but that but the one restaurant
01:21:05.360
down the street across from the olden yes the olden very good restaurant and that's where
01:21:09.560
