00:00:00.660 We highlight, um, we highlight like the chads, like the, you know, the, the men, like the
00:00:06.860 guys with the abs that drive the nice cars.
00:00:09.000 And like, we kind of look at them as like, they're the man to be when they're only like,
00:00:15.500 what, like, I mean, you probably know more than I, like such a small percentage of the
00:00:18.420 world, such a small percentage of the world.
00:00:20.880 And the rest of us, we're just kind of like me.
00:00:22.980 We're fucked up.
00:00:23.700 We're just trying to get by, trying to get through.
00:00:25.420 And I think a lot of guys relate to that because I'm not trying to be, you know, fucking
00:00:31.620 a chad.
00:00:33.760 You don't think you're in the chad category?
00:00:36.920 I am, but I'm not.
00:00:38.340 So like I am because I probably have money because like, I have like a fucking Instagram
00:00:43.100 phone, which is super fucking gay.
00:00:45.080 But who I am as a person, fuck no, fuck no.
00:00:48.700 I'm just a white trash guy who somehow managed not to go to prison.
00:00:51.580 But when people use that term, it's like the term, like the guys that women throw themselves
00:00:55.760 at.
00:00:56.180 And I just can't imagine as a fighter, like I've seen the ring girls.
00:00:59.500 I've seen, you know, you're not going to like, come on.
00:01:02.880 Yeah, no, I mean.
00:01:04.420 Come on.
00:01:05.420 But again, but again.
00:01:06.760 Be real.
00:01:07.380 Come on.
00:01:08.740 I hate it when people come on this show and they're like.
00:01:10.860 No, no, no.
00:01:11.360 But I'm saying.
00:01:11.960 Let's not.
00:01:12.800 But if, if any woman ever would have thrown themselves at me in the past, that's mostly because
00:01:18.740 it's not who I am.
00:01:19.880 Yeah, it's, I mean.
00:01:20.840 I'm out of the club fucking dancing.
00:01:22.240 Well, yeah, but.
00:01:23.000 Yeah, but the, the same guy can be like a, it's interesting because men, it's like, you
00:01:28.240 guys can be the same person, but you're a Chad.
00:01:31.000 And like, I, I have, um, I have a friend of mine and day to day, it's not like he's a
00:01:36.600 Chad, but he was like the lead in a musical.
00:01:39.320 And then all the women there look at him as a Chad, the same person, right?
00:01:42.860 Day to day, he's just like chilling, but then he joins this musical and he has the most
00:01:46.900 like, pussies ever gotten in his life.
00:01:49.720 You know what I mean?
00:01:50.120 It's same guy.
00:01:51.100 I mean, moral stories.
00:01:51.880 But it's like, we're just like, put, put you in the middle of the octagon front of the
00:01:55.620 room.
00:01:56.140 The moment you have like a little bit of like, like fame.
00:01:58.920 Yeah.
00:01:59.160 It's like, yeah, no, it's fucking, I mean.
00:02:01.540 Or even just like, um, cause I've, I've talked to the PUA guys or it's like the popular guy
00:02:06.040 at the bar.
00:02:07.940 We're so dumb and it completely works.
00:02:09.740 Well, it's so shitty.
00:02:10.760 It's like, there's so many guys out there that are like great guys.
00:02:13.360 I know, but there's no morality in dating, right?
00:02:16.220 There's so many guys out there that are great guys.
00:02:18.380 They make a, they work a blue collar job.
00:02:20.500 There's nice girls that are ugly, right?
00:02:22.400 It's like, there's not morality in this, right?
00:02:25.760 I was talking to a guy and I don't want to say his name, but he was telling me about,
00:02:29.840 and I'm telling the story, he was telling me about like his woman and she lives in two
00:02:34.040 different States and like, she's very like big in her career.
00:02:37.520 And I was telling you, I was like, dude, and he's like, you know, mid twenties.
00:02:42.620 And I was like, you do not want a career driven woman.
00:02:45.880 Like, you don't want to be with a loser by, by no means.
00:02:48.480 Like, you don't want to be with a fucking loser, but like, you do not want a woman that
00:02:52.620 puts your career above all.
00:02:53.820 Like, you're just going to end up like, you know, you're just going to end up fucking
00:02:57.120 old and miserable.
00:02:58.500 Like, man, what did I do my whole life as my wife went to work?
00:03:01.900 Like, guys, if you can meet, you meet, you can meet a five or six, you know, that'd be
00:03:08.180 hot.
00:03:08.780 You just meet an okay woman that wants to be like a mom and a housewife, like fucking
00:03:13.580 have at it guys, way better off than meeting some like Instagram chick or like some career
00:03:20.360 driven women.
00:03:21.080 Like the worst thing we've ever did to society was letting women fucking work.
00:03:24.880 Worst fucking thing.
00:03:25.740 And vote, right?
00:03:26.640 And vote.
00:03:27.260 And then this is where like me and you differ.
00:03:30.600 I blame the men.
00:03:31.320 Man, you guys let this shit happen.
00:03:32.780 You guys.
00:03:33.180 Actually, I want to, I want to go through that thought process with you.
00:03:36.500 Yeah.
00:03:36.720 You guys.
00:03:37.240 So where do you think it's the men's fault?
00:03:39.840 Like what part?
00:03:41.940 So.
00:03:43.140 I see if that guy messes me back about the lost footage, but so it's, it's a man's fault
00:03:49.960 because we always did it to pander, pander to women.
00:03:53.560 Like there was some fucking guy that was like, I'm going to do this to get pussy.
00:03:57.280 Are you talking about the right to work or the right to vote?
00:03:59.420 Everything.
00:03:59.880 Well, I mean, you could say the right to work was like World War II, we needed women, but
00:04:04.280 all right.
00:04:06.260 So I just, I, because a lot of times people, people say these broad statements.
00:04:10.380 Okay.
00:04:10.640 I will be very specific.
00:04:12.100 Yeah.
00:04:12.240 I will be very specific.
00:04:12.940 Where is it the men's fault?
00:04:14.840 Capitalism.
00:04:15.400 I'll be very specific.
00:04:16.560 Capitalism.
00:04:17.440 Capitalism.
00:04:17.840 The only reason why slavery ended, it's like, you got to go down the rabbit hole.
00:04:26.380 Okay.
00:04:26.600 The only reason why slavery ended is because capitalism was a better means of, of a work.
00:04:32.960 Like capitalism is way better.
00:04:35.140 You give somebody a smaller piece of the pie.
00:04:37.820 Now you don't have to hit him with a fucking whip and fucking house him and feed him.
00:04:41.120 Right.
00:04:41.540 Okay.
00:04:41.760 But where, where are the, the average men?
00:04:44.160 Come on.
00:04:44.580 So we're going down the rabbit hole.
00:04:45.980 Okay, fine.
00:04:46.480 So like after war two, when we allowed women to work.
00:04:51.600 Okay.
00:04:52.500 Like the capitalist society realized that like you could pay people less.
00:04:56.680 Okay.
00:04:57.120 You could have two people working.
00:04:58.800 You could increase production, increase, like increase consumerism.
00:05:02.820 Right.
00:05:03.020 So yeah, I don't think it's weak men.
00:05:04.340 I think it's like, I think it's big business is realized that having work, more workers in
00:05:10.920 the workplace, in the workplace, decreases wages and makes more consumers.
00:05:15.140 But how is that the average man's fault?
00:05:17.760 Like the, that average guy had nothing to do with women's right to vote.
00:05:22.380 Nothing.
00:05:22.880 So the issue with how is like even the women, women working, right?
00:05:26.300 But you, but here's the thing about the average man, the average man sucks.
00:05:28.920 And again, you guys, I'm one of you.
00:05:30.380 I'm not saying this.
00:05:31.080 I used to be an incel to my dog.
00:05:32.800 Like I I'm, I'm, I'm one of you guys, the average, but okay.
00:05:36.800 How do they suck?
00:05:38.040 Well, I'll tell you why the average man is in a system that's kind of against them.
00:05:42.040 Like this is why video games are so popular.
00:05:44.680 Like you're like, this is why men want to go play like the, the oblivion game.
00:05:49.140 What's wrong with that?
00:05:50.740 Well, it's like, I mean, my brother plays video game.
00:05:53.800 He's a very successful engineer.
00:05:55.560 Like what's wrong with that?
00:05:57.060 But it's like, like, why aren't men allowed to enjoy their hobbies if they don't benefit
00:06:01.160 women or society?
00:06:02.400 Yeah.
00:06:02.680 But I think it's more, I think they do it more as an escape.
00:06:06.020 Like instead of like, they do it more to like, I mean, you're, you gotta think about
00:06:10.220 what, what is it?
00:06:10.980 You're sitting there for hours, fucking playing a game, leveling up a character in a non-existent
00:06:16.420 world, like you're so far detached from your own life when you're playing a video game.
00:06:22.780 Right.
00:06:23.300 But women have social media and that's kind of the same thing.
00:06:26.200 No, it's the same thing.
00:06:26.780 It's the same thing.
00:06:27.420 But like, you keep saying the average man sucks, but like, to me, what I see is I see
00:06:32.800 a lot of, I see.
00:06:33.800 Well, the average man is built to fail.
00:06:34.500 The average man, the system is designed to fail, to fail.
00:06:37.220 I think that you can't really say that when the average man allows you to do what you
00:06:41.600 do.
00:06:41.980 I think it's actually kind of elitist.
00:06:43.840 No, no, no.
00:06:44.300 So like half of men work infrastructural jobs, right?
00:06:47.120 Stop.
00:06:47.680 I am, I am the average man.
00:06:50.220 So what I'm not saying.
00:06:50.840 No, you're not.
00:06:51.560 No, no.
00:06:52.000 What I'm not saying.
00:06:53.460 What I'm saying.
00:06:54.480 You've lived a life that like men would dream to live.
00:06:58.000 Yeah, no.
00:06:58.240 Every time I do like, so I rented a tractor the other day and I was on that thing for
00:07:01.720 like eight hours, fucking grading dirt.
00:07:03.620 I was like, man, this fucking sucks.
00:07:05.240 Let me go in the cage and break my nose.
00:07:06.560 Right.
00:07:06.820 But you, I mean, you know, you're, you're famous.
00:07:09.460 No, but what I'm saying, but what I'm saying, when I say the average man sucks, I'm the
00:07:13.380 average man.
00:07:13.860 I grew up in society.
00:07:16.140 Society is so stacked against the average man and the average boy.
00:07:21.620 Like it always, he starts with childhood.
00:07:22.960 You have two working parents.
00:07:24.400 Right.
00:07:25.100 They, you have a fucking, look at when you walk through a store these days, they just
00:07:28.660 throw this fucking phone at this kid's face and they say, look at the phone.
00:07:31.980 It's like, I feel so bad.
00:07:36.060 The lack of purpose that like the average guy has.
00:07:39.940 It's like, I don't even know, like, it's just real.
00:07:42.940 But why would he have purpose?
00:07:44.420 What's in it for him?
00:07:47.280 What's like, cause you have to ask if most men aren't going to get a wife and kids, that's
00:07:52.080 not going to happen for most men.
00:07:54.140 I mean, so, so we have to ask the question, what would be the incentive for a guy to work
00:07:59.420 hard?
00:08:00.140 Like, cause you, you kind of want to cast it as, you have to kind of, but they made it
00:08:04.340 that way, they made it that way to where it's a two tier system, but like they've made it
00:08:09.000 in a sense.
00:08:09.460 Who is they?
00:08:10.920 Corporations, a hundred percent.
00:08:11.860 Capitalism.
00:08:12.420 Capitalism.
00:08:12.780 Yeah, I know, but that's, but that's really, that's really broad.
00:08:15.680 It's not broad.
00:08:16.580 Capitalism ruined family.
00:08:17.960 Like, uh, okay.
00:08:19.660 Every big industry is ruined family.
00:08:21.860 Okay.
00:08:22.120 It's not the government, it's capitalism.
00:08:23.980 But let's, let's explore that.
00:08:25.480 Right.
00:08:25.820 Just cause you have a choice to do something.
00:08:27.780 Does that mean you have to do it?
00:08:29.740 Does that mean there's, does that mean.
00:08:30.820 They made it virtually impossible for one person that's like, uh, whatever you might
00:08:36.680 say, a construction worker to raise a family.
00:08:38.460 They've made it like just financially, they made it.
00:08:41.680 If you look at the cost of housing versus when it was in the seventies.
00:08:45.000 Correct.
00:08:46.020 So what I'm saying is like the world is stacked against.
00:08:49.220 But women didn't have to work.
00:08:51.640 That was a choice, right?
00:08:53.080 No one put a gun to our head and said we had to go work.
00:08:56.980 Right.
00:08:57.440 That was a choice.
00:08:58.280 No one put a gun to our head and said we had to divorce.
00:09:01.380 That was a choice.
00:09:02.040 And nobody puts a gun to our head and says we can't live in an apartment and have a family.
00:09:06.080 So like I've interviewed.
00:09:07.060 But you're like, but you're like, this is where you're, you're so one, like you are looking
00:09:12.000 at sex of time or you don't understand that this took, this took 50, 30 years, a hundred
00:09:17.820 years of slow manipulation and brainwashing to where like.
00:09:21.780 But that's a get out of jail free card.
00:09:23.460 Like when you do marketing, I can't market to you something that you don't want to buy.
00:09:29.460 Right.
00:09:29.900 So like, if I, if I, if I, if I, no, let me ask you something.
00:09:34.180 Okay.
00:09:34.340 Would you ever buy OnlyFans?
00:09:36.220 Would you?
00:09:36.880 Okay.
00:09:37.260 But what if I sent you a marketing?
00:09:39.120 What if I marketed to you OnlyFans?
00:09:41.080 And really, no, because I'm making a point every time I make a point.
00:09:44.200 And I will, and I will.
00:09:45.140 This is why my last interview.
00:09:46.360 No.
00:09:46.640 And I will.
00:09:47.580 You said, how do you make me buy a product that I don't want to buy?
00:09:50.820 Yeah.
00:09:51.180 Like a lot of people, a lot of, especially women will use the get out of jail free card.
00:09:55.960 So I will tell you.
00:09:56.800 I will.
00:09:57.140 Use the get out of jail free card of brainwashing.
00:10:00.020 I will tell you how you, I will tell you, well, I will tell you, no, I will tell you how
00:10:05.880 you, how you buy a product that you don't want to buy.
00:10:09.700 Okay.
00:10:10.000 When you're a little kid and somebody hands you a phone or you're watching TV and you
00:10:17.580 see a commercial as a little kid, this is why we all have these catchy jingles in our
00:10:21.940 head, you know, like we could, if you, if any jingle, we would pop in and we would
00:10:25.660 go, you know, we were just like, oh yeah, that's it.
00:10:28.780 From day one, the moment we could look at a fucking TV screen and comprehend, we are being
00:10:33.960 told that we like said products that we want this and we want this.
00:10:37.380 So it's like, it's like, but it's brainwashing at its finest.
00:10:42.900 Right.
00:10:43.420 But again, what I think happens is people want to do things.
00:10:48.240 And what happens is they use the media as an excuse of being brainwashed.
00:10:54.720 For example, I hear.
00:10:56.780 But men have a couple of driving factors.
00:10:59.220 We want to, we want to eat kind of, and we want to fuck.
00:11:02.400 Correct.
00:11:02.720 We want to eat and we want to fuck.
00:11:04.220 We want to eat and we want to fuck.
00:11:05.440 That's the only thing men want to fucking do.
00:11:06.840 If you really boil it down, like if you were to take every, every woman off this fucking
00:11:10.640 planet, we go straight cannibalism.
00:11:13.300 Like I'm going to fucking pull my gun.
00:11:14.800 I'm not going to get food.
00:11:15.440 I'm going to eat the fucking guy outside.
00:11:17.540 But so everything that we have is marketed to us.
00:11:21.540 And it's going to probably increase these odds.
00:11:23.740 Like, Hey, you want to get a motorcycle?
00:11:25.380 Bitches like motorcycles.
00:11:26.480 That's why motorcycles are actually on the downturn because fucking realizing girls like fucking
00:11:30.360 motorcycles.
00:11:31.120 You want to buy a nice truck?
00:11:32.280 Hey, fucking bitches like trucks, bitches like sports cars.
00:11:35.500 Hey, you want a nice house?
00:11:36.280 Hey, you want a cool Apple phone?
00:11:37.960 You got to get a fucking phone.
00:11:38.520 But that doesn't work on men.
00:11:40.680 Yes, it does.
00:11:41.340 It doesn't because women make 80% of consumer buying decisions.
00:11:44.860 Men are very hard to market to.
00:11:46.200 It's why demonetization was actually very difficult for me because men do not buy and are not
00:11:52.240 manipulate or quote unquote manipulated.
00:12:02.280 It doesn't matter if men do not break.
