SNEAKO - MAIN CHARACTER ENERGY

00:00:00.000 While we're here, does anyone else live with pure main character energy?

00:00:04.640 Because if you're not living life like life's a movie and you're the protagonist, here's why you should be.

00:00:12.040 Snow match for Muay Thai.

00:00:15.680 Are you the main character?

00:00:17.580 I'm the main character for sure.

00:00:20.420 CZ, are you the main character?

00:00:22.460 Uh, not all the time, no.

00:00:30.000 Back to New York, again.

00:00:34.580 Oh my god.

00:00:36.700 Testing, one, two, three.

00:00:38.780 They've been doing fire inspections all day long. Perfect time to leave.

00:00:46.720 Let's go.

00:00:53.020 This is the part of the movie where the protagonist is tired and just doesn't want to be at the airport anymore.

00:01:00.000 What's up? How you doing?

00:01:03.080 Dude, I'm the main character.

00:01:06.960 Yeah. 1.00

00:01:08.200 Fuck yeah. 1.00

00:01:08.780 You're the main character too. 1.00

00:01:10.180 We all are.

00:01:11.180 In our own movie.

00:01:12.600 Just look at the screen.

00:01:14.160 See right there, see that's the main character shot.

00:01:16.220 Hell yeah, I love that.

00:01:17.300 How do you do, man?

00:01:18.060 Good.

00:01:18.520 When did you become the main character?

00:01:19.800 When I became the main character, I'd say probably about around 5th grade.

00:01:24.560 5th grade?

00:01:25.240 Doing my own thing.

00:01:27.200 What movie inspired you to become the main character?

00:01:29.080 Uh, I don't know.

00:01:30.900 I don't know.

00:01:31.880 I don't know.

00:01:32.960 It was probably Sharkboy and Lavagirl.

00:01:35.060 That's funny that it, man.

00:01:36.280 Wait, that was Taylor Lautner, right?

00:01:37.600 Yeah.

00:01:38.000 Yeah, Sharkboy and Lavagirl.

00:01:39.540 Yeah, man.

00:01:40.300 No, I remember that.

00:01:41.140 It was dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream.

00:01:44.220 Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream.

00:01:47.760 Hey, take it easy, bro. 0.99

00:01:48.720 I was going down to shoot my old lady. 1.00

00:01:51.720 You know I probably mess around with another man. 0.98

00:01:56.080 That ain't too cool.

00:01:57.400 Life was completely uninteresting before I started viewing myself like the main character.

00:02:03.080 The problem is if you're not the main character, then by default you're an NPC walking in the background of someone else's movie.

00:02:10.540 What's going on?

00:02:12.140 I've got a question.

00:02:13.400 Are you the main character in your movie?

00:02:16.040 Well, I think I am.

00:02:17.540 What is your main character?

00:02:19.980 What's your story?

00:02:20.980 I think I'm the side character.

00:02:24.560 You're the side character.

00:02:25.500 What held me back for so long from being the main character in my own story is other people thinking that it's narcissistic.

00:02:34.820 Then you come to realize the only people using words like narcissism are the side characters.

00:02:39.720 I really ask you, are you the main character in your movie?

00:02:41.780 What's your name? 0.99

00:02:42.220 Are you trying to be a butt? 0.99

00:02:43.360 No, I'm just asking. 0.99

00:02:44.820 I don't know.

00:02:45.600 Are you the side character?

00:02:46.660 I'll take my side character.

00:02:47.780 I just don't look at life like that.

00:02:49.720 How do you look at life?

00:02:50.620 Everybody got their own life.

00:02:51.740 Everybody got their own family. 1.00

00:02:53.360 Everybody's been through years of shit. 0.99

00:02:54.640 Like, it's all, and there's like billions of people out there. 1.00

00:02:57.980 And it's just like, it's just crazy.

00:03:01.100 If we all view life through our own personal lens, like the camera in a movie, everyone is a character in your own personal movie.

00:03:08.260 What character are you?

00:03:09.620 And you are in your own personal.

00:03:11.040 I get what you're saying.

00:03:11.800 Everyone else's life is real equally matter.

00:03:14.180 But what about your own personal movie?

00:03:15.540 If we all view life through our own personal lens the same way a movie is shot through one camera,

00:03:20.420 then the best character to be would be the hero.

00:03:22.760 The one who has to overcome the obstacles.

00:03:25.120 Whenever something difficult happens in life, it's written that you're going to be able to overcome it.

00:03:29.620 This is the part where the main character boards the plane that's not going to crash.

00:03:36.540 This scene, he randomly got upgraded to first class.

00:03:39.600 It's a good movie.

00:03:40.560 I lied, it's Comfort Plus.

00:03:42.060 But the audience doesn't need to know that.

00:03:52.760 I live streamed UFC 314 at floor seats and I love being at that section because you get to be around all the main characters at the same time.

00:04:07.600 From politicians, to business moguls, to fighters and celebrities.

00:04:11.200 And the funny part about it is you see former main characters as well as current ones, the washed up ones, 0.98

00:04:17.960 and people who are trying to get it back and whoever is popular right now.

00:04:21.860 All in one place.

00:04:23.060 The funniest part was seeing Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, all of Trump's former political opposition,

00:04:28.780 now sitting next to him trying to get some semblance of clout from him.

00:04:32.460 They went from Lion's Head and Snakey Rubio to just people who orbit around Trump.

00:04:37.840 I doubt they even like fighting.

00:04:39.180 They're just there hoping, waiting, looking at the camera for that one second they could get on the UFC screen to get a couple more votes.

00:04:45.760 And that's the funniest part about the 2016 debates that changed U.S. politics.

00:04:50.220 Back when Trump was debating against Rubio and Ted Cruz, Trump was the anti-hero.

00:04:55.180 He was playing the main character who wasn't afraid of being called a bully or being made fun of for his orange hair.

00:05:00.300 He had the perfect combination of conviction, confidence, delusion, and ability.

00:05:05.120 Something the rest of them didn't have.

00:05:06.760 They either weren't confident enough, they didn't have enough money,

00:05:09.360 there wasn't that same belief that a main character of a movie would have.

00:05:12.980 In 2016, even though Trump was the outsider and wasn't a politician,

00:05:16.780 he stood on that podium next to every other politician and had full conviction that this was his.

00:05:22.460 And now you see all those other attempted main characters like Cruz and Rubio,

00:05:26.220 and even Elon Musk, who wasn't a Trump supporter back then,

00:05:28.860 sitting around him because they want the chance to be there too.

00:05:33.480 Good.

00:05:36.240 For two and a half years before he fought Floyd Mayweather,

00:05:39.120 Conor McGregor was walking everywhere and commanding the attention of the protagonist.

00:05:43.900 And the criticism you see from MMA fans now is that he's a shell of his former self.

00:05:48.400 He's partying more, he gained a lot of weight,

00:05:50.900 he doesn't have that same competence and belief.

00:05:53.160 It was crushed.

00:05:53.780 Back in 2016, Conor would say he would knock out a champion with a left hook after stepping back and countering,

00:05:59.260 and then he would do it.

00:06:00.240 If you look back at the Conor McGregor press conferences from 2016,

00:06:03.360 you can see his unwavering ability to be confident,

00:06:06.760 to embrace the anti-hero,

00:06:08.680 and market a fight perfectly because of his belief in himself.

00:06:11.820 One of the perfect examples of main character energy.

00:06:14.400 But if I were the Conor of today,

00:06:15.940 I would think,

00:06:16.720 what would the hero version of Conor McGregor do at this part of the movie?

00:06:20.220 I haven't fought in many years.

00:06:22.240 People are saying I'm a shell of my former self.

00:06:24.560 This is the part of the movie where I remember that essence that made me the great person that I was.

00:06:29.720 I would think this is the part of the movie where the hero cuts off all distractions

00:06:33.340 and is able to refine the essence that made the great fighter that once was.

00:06:37.720 Even if that hero comes back and loses,

00:06:39.780 it's the courage that captivates an audience.

00:06:42.100 Nobody wants to watch a movie of a washed-up has-been that stays a washed-up has-been.

00:06:46.620 You know how I can't mess around, mess around town.

00:06:55.860 Aura.

00:06:57.800 Aura.

00:06:59.200 I have the red glasses too, but I couldn't put them on.

00:07:02.000 I know if I put them on, I'd have given you free content.

00:07:05.080 You look like a world traveler right now.

00:07:06.860 Yeah, I am a world traveler right now.

00:07:08.360 You look like the alien emoji.

00:07:10.120 I'm about to hit the next level exotic parts of the world right now, bro.

00:07:14.120 Is this a side quest right now?

00:07:15.300 I'm getting ready for it.

00:07:16.080 This is a side quest.

00:07:16.820 Where are we going?

00:07:17.540 Are we still doing Philippines?

00:07:18.620 This is, yeah.

00:07:19.360 Yeah, yeah, Philippines for sure. 0.99

00:07:20.640 Let's lock it in.

00:07:21.160 This gets me?

00:07:22.480 Huh?

00:07:23.000 This gets me?

00:07:23.520 This gets everything, yeah.

00:07:24.500 Audio, everything.

00:07:25.220 It's the best camera in the world.

00:07:26.340 Hey, but welcome to New York, man.

00:07:27.880 New York is your city.

00:07:29.080 Let me show you my spot.

00:07:30.100 American household.

00:07:31.220 Welcome to the crib, man.

00:07:32.140 You guys had shoes off.

00:07:33.480 He's so Arab now. 1.00

00:07:34.760 Come on, man.

00:07:35.440 Look at that.

00:07:35.960 This has sat here for four months and we have not done one podcast here.

00:07:38.840 So let's relaunch it right now when I'm in town.

00:07:40.960 The Brandverse podcast?

00:07:42.140 Oh.

00:07:42.900 I remembered.

00:07:43.400 You were the Brandverse podcast?

00:07:44.660 I remembered.

00:07:45.620 Let me show you my favorite part. 0.99

00:07:47.440 This is fucking sick. 1.00

00:07:49.120 This is all yours? 1.00

00:07:50.220 Yeah.

00:07:50.780 In the summer, I'm going to host parties here and stuff.

00:07:52.660 I think it'd be cool.

00:07:53.200 Oh, this is dope.

00:07:54.160 It has heat lamps too.

00:07:55.400 Run that back. 0.96

00:07:56.020 It's been a year since what happened?

00:07:57.380 Well, I was telling Sneeko I'm doing a three-day fast on Thursday to Sunday because that's

00:08:02.760 Easter and that's a year ago when the kidnapping happened, which quite frankly, Sneeko was

00:08:07.920 there who helped make it viral when we needed it to be.

00:08:11.300 Arab has been kidnapped in Haiti.

00:08:13.300 He's been kidnapped for 15 days.

00:08:14.900 It's funny how powerful content is.

00:08:17.880 Right?

00:08:18.360 The fact that you can speak it live from a different country.

00:08:22.720 In Saudi.

00:08:23.400 In Saudi.

00:08:24.140 To a guy who's kidnapped in Haiti.

00:08:25.980 Global.

00:08:26.660 In America.

00:08:27.620 And then that guy all of a sudden becomes scared of it.

00:08:30.240 You know what I mean?

00:08:30.980 That's actually the power that views have.

00:08:33.080 That is the best example of the power of social media.

00:08:35.920 And it seems like he's got support from Dana, which is super dope.

00:08:38.140 That is, here's the first promotion that Dana White has ever supported. 1.00

00:08:41.480 But who do you got in my upcoming fight with Fresh Prince CEO?

00:08:44.760 He called me out.

00:08:45.700 I don't know if you saw him.

00:08:46.340 I feel like, look, I got, I'm not into the drama stuff, okay?

00:08:50.720 But if you're asking me, I only do it for you.

00:08:53.400 I knew that guy was a snake from the first time I met him.

00:08:55.900 Really?

00:08:56.820 Yeah.

00:08:57.160 You could just feel it.

00:08:58.220 I also blocked him on Twitter, even though we've never had any interaction.

00:09:01.740 Just because.

00:09:02.620 Like, I don't.

00:09:03.120 Like, someone who does that and then, like, threatens Haram videos.

00:09:06.800 Like, what a weird.

00:09:08.620 Like, come on, bro.

00:09:09.640 That means the whole time that we were friends, he was gathering videos.

00:09:11.860 He was gathering blackmail videos.

00:09:13.740 Like, what a freak.

00:09:14.860 Like, did he?

00:09:15.440 Like, why would anyone ever want to be friends with you?

00:09:18.040 Yeah.

00:09:18.460 We're not rolling anymore, right?

00:09:19.560 No, no, no.

00:09:19.940 Not rolling.

00:09:20.600 Why is it a red circle?

00:09:21.660 No, no, sis.

00:09:22.400 Don't worry about it. 1.00

00:09:22.740 Shut the shit off. 1.00

00:09:23.620 No, it's all right. 1.00

00:09:24.220 What's going on, man?

00:09:25.200 What's up?

00:09:25.760 Good to see you.

00:09:26.400 All the time, no see.

00:09:27.120 Of course, Rush and Dennis behind the camera.

00:09:29.420 Look at you, man.

00:09:30.180 Good to see you.

00:09:30.760 You guys want to get some food?

00:09:32.340 Yeah, yeah, let's get food.

00:09:33.320 All right, run. 0.65

00:09:33.860 Rush and Dennis is locked in right now, bro.

00:09:35.800 Look at these influencers vlogging two conversations with two different cameras.

00:09:39.380 We had a dude yesterday, while he was trying to sell us a ticket, another dude with a metal

00:09:43.060 back came behind him and swung at him, and he gave him a warning shot to the body, and

00:09:47.700 then he said, why are you touching my system?

00:09:50.140 And then it turned into a brawl.

00:09:51.820 Yeah.

00:09:52.040 We got in for free without paying.

00:09:53.840 Oh.

00:09:54.580 You got in for free because of the brawl?

00:09:56.080 Yeah.

00:09:56.680 Yeah.

00:09:57.120 You've lived here for a while, I guess.

00:09:58.780 No, I mean, not really.

00:09:59.940 I've been trying to convince him to live here for the past six years, and he never does.

00:10:03.140 Yeah.

00:10:03.900 Yeah.

00:10:04.140 And every time he comes here, he's like, oh yeah, I should, and then doesn't.

00:10:06.540 And it goes back to Austin, where it's weird.

00:10:08.860 Austin?

00:10:09.560 Yeah, yeah.

00:10:10.340 Why do you say it like that?

00:10:11.260 All we're doing is right.

00:10:11.940 Right?

00:10:12.540 I agree.

00:10:14.820 Austin?

00:10:17.080 Are you the main character?

00:10:18.720 I'm the main character, for sure.

00:10:20.080 Have you always been?

00:10:21.860 Yeah.

00:10:22.500 Since birth?

00:10:23.140 Or since you saw a movie that made you realize?

00:10:25.220 Yeah, yeah.

00:10:25.740 Probably since birth.

00:10:26.800 What makes...

00:10:27.360 I've always chased my dreams.

00:10:28.380 How did you know to do that?

00:10:29.580 Something inside me.

00:10:30.780 You know...

00:10:31.340 Something inside you?

00:10:32.460 Something inside of you.

00:10:33.540 Oh.

00:10:34.100 CZ, are you the main character?

00:10:35.480 Not all the time, no.

00:10:36.660 Right now, what are you?

00:10:38.140 Right now, I'm somewhat of a main character, because I got lenses pointed at me and stuff,

00:10:42.540 and I've got to pretend to be important, you know?

00:10:44.440 Yeah.

00:10:44.900 What movie inspired you to become the main character?

00:10:47.260 Yes, man.

00:10:48.080 No, yes, man.

00:10:48.560 Yes, man.

00:10:48.940 Where he says yes to just everything, instead of saying no.

00:10:52.460 He just says yes to new opportunities.

00:10:54.240 I've seen that.

00:10:54.760 I've seen that.

00:10:55.480 I've seen that.

00:10:55.860 If that movie was sort of girl, it'd be a lot different. 0.98

00:10:58.600 If she had to say yes to everyone, that'd be a dark movie.

00:11:01.180 That would be...

00:11:02.060 I don't think I'd make it in theaters.

00:11:03.240 It would probably make it to your Twitter feed.

00:11:05.460 Hey.

00:11:06.360 Yeah, it probably would.

00:11:07.600 Ramadan's over, so...

00:11:08.960 My Twitter feed's disgusting.

00:11:10.640 The first one that came to mind was the same Jim Carrey, Truman Show.

00:11:13.500 You both thought of Jim Carrey?

00:11:14.600 Yeah, yeah, that was fun.

00:11:15.620 Jim Carrey's...

00:11:16.340 Yeah, Jim Carrey's a beast.

00:11:17.780 Nico.

00:11:18.240 As-salamu alaykum aki.

00:11:19.620 Nico just gave him this door.

00:11:21.160 I love you, too, bro.

00:11:24.520 Adam and Slim's boxing trainer, Saddam.

00:11:27.960 Saddam Ali.

00:11:28.840 Yeah, you know it's my cousin, right?

00:11:29.920 It's your cousin?

00:11:30.340 My very close cousin.

00:11:31.040 I'm supposed to train with him tomorrow.

00:11:32.140 No way.

00:11:32.580 Yeah, yeah.

00:11:32.900 Tell him Gibran said what's up.

00:11:34.940 A.K.A. and Karim's boy.

00:11:36.560 Okay, Gibran.
