SNEAKO - SNEAKO： The Dark Side Of Internet Fame

00:00:00.000 That's what I was thinking.

00:00:01.520 You knew you were going to get banned?

00:00:02.640 I knew it was pretty much inevitable.

00:00:05.620 And people were warning me.

00:00:07.700 And I realized that when they were all telling me this and I didn't care, I'm like, it's going to happen.

00:00:14.240 Like when people were giving me advice like, yo, you got to slow down.

00:00:18.400 There's too much going on.

00:00:20.120 They're going to try to get, they're getting warnings all the time.

00:00:22.080 They were like shutting off my live stream.

00:00:23.840 In the middle, I was getting strikes warnings.

00:00:25.920 People were saying that they should ban me.

00:00:27.540 People were making videos saying YouTube should ban Sneeko.

00:00:30.000 what's up sneeko how you doing the notorious sneeko notorious it's great to be on i really

00:00:40.600 enjoy this podcast i actually listen to it i appreciate that i think uh this is going to be

00:00:45.580 an interesting conversation for sure how are you enjoying dubai at a moment i'm enjoying it quite

00:00:50.140 a bit and i do think this is going to be an interesting conversation i think uh there's

00:00:54.320 some some questions on the laptop you keep saying oh yeah anything you don't want to talk questions

00:00:58.120 ready. It's going to be good. It's going to be interesting. But yeah, Dubai's great. I've been

00:01:01.140 hyping it a lot on my live stream talking about how the West is dead, the degeneracy, how the

00:01:05.780 woke is a hive mind. The wokeness will destroy you. It eats away at your soul. If you look at

00:01:10.560 their faces, they look lost. They look sad. You can see woke on somebody's face. There's a lack

00:01:16.420 of sun. There's a lack of happiness. You can see the antidepressants, some of the injections they're

00:01:22.360 taking. You can read it on their face. And this is a place, it's like a utopia away from it all.

00:01:27.600 I noticed that when I went back to the UK over the Christmas time.

00:01:30.640 I was just looking at the people and there was something off.

00:01:33.720 Like everybody just seemed so down, depressed,

00:01:37.760 like as if there was like no hope.

00:01:39.340 Yeah, you could read the cancel culture in their eyebrows

00:01:41.460 and especially after the whole mass thing,

00:01:44.380 everyone looking at each other and being scared

00:01:46.140 that they really bought into the division.

00:01:48.960 But people don't want to admit they're wrong.

00:01:51.800 It's pretty eye-opening how their worldview isn't working.

00:01:55.760 it makes them unhappy and they will still defend it instead of try to question it

00:02:00.020 you understand like they're not happy people they don't like canceling each other they don't find

00:02:05.880 satisfaction and they don't find purpose they don't have drive or they don't have hope with

00:02:10.860 the woke mind but they will actively defend it instead of try to change that that's very

00:02:15.840 that's very strange to me it's interesting i i've heard and seen a lot about you but i feel like i

00:02:24.160 don't truly know you and i think a lot of people don't really know who you truly are i think you're

00:02:30.580 quite a potentially misunderstood character so the this conversation i want to try and show like

00:02:37.300 the real you to the world what i've noticed even just typing your name in youtube there's people

00:02:43.500 out there youtubers who are literally putting together these like hour-long documentaries

00:02:48.380 there's a lot about your people would call it the rise and the fall or just your the devastating

00:02:55.040 demise yeah which is ridiculous because you're you're 24 years old like you haven't even really

00:02:59.420 got started yet no like that's just been the first chapter of your career and they talk about me as

00:03:06.940 if my life is over because i'm not on you but that's my existence on youtube now is mostly that

00:03:12.200 except for short form content but yes it's mostly the leftist and the people i'm talking about the

00:03:15.860 woke mind celebrating the fact that I got canceled. It's a weird existence right now

00:03:21.740 on social media because I'm still really active. I've been doing podcasts in Dubai every single

00:03:26.840 day. I stream every single day on Rumble. I'm still, I exist on short form content and I go

00:03:32.520 on other people's platforms, make a lot of videos, but it's still, because you're really,

00:03:38.580 you're part of it, but you're also seen as somebody who's away from it. It's a strange

00:03:43.660 existence to no one really prepares you for that yeah it's not something that was but i kind of

00:03:49.520 like that it happened this young because it gives me a challenge and it gives me something it was

00:03:54.100 getting a little bit like too easy at that point just like if i stream and i can make seven videos

00:03:58.300 a night just reacting to people's content like especially when you enrage enrage a lot of people

00:04:02.700 you know it boosts your engagement if i tweet something like there's only two genders

00:04:07.900 it's gonna get a hundred thousand likes just for the fact that people are so angry about it

00:04:12.320 debating non-stop so if you can get people that emotionally involved it's just uh it's just

00:04:17.640 light work but were you doing that that type of content and reacting the way you were reacting

00:04:23.500 was that really you or was that all calculated just to try and maximize controversy and views

00:04:29.380 it's it's amplified like you got to understand what what entertains people and i know how bad

00:04:35.700 people's attention spans are like this podcast for example most people are going to see five

00:04:39.040 seconds and then judge this entire judge me and they're still not going to understand you want to

00:04:43.020 find out like the real me or whatever most people are just going to see a clip and then make up their

00:04:47.360 own mind about who i am and why i'm a bad person i because i've done i mean i haven't done this

00:04:52.240 often but i gave it a try where i did some reaction videos and i watched myself back and it

00:04:59.160 was like it it was so boring because it was just like fairly ordinary reactions like people don't

00:05:06.340 really want to see that they want to see they want to see you yell and scream and they want

00:05:10.180 to see some emotion so it's um i feel like when you're doing that type of content you you almost

00:05:16.100 have to have those over the top reactions or else it's just you playing someone else's video and

00:05:22.060 it's literally just you reacting when i watch a video i don't i'm not there screaming about

00:05:26.820 feminism and flailing and falling out of my chair but no one wants to see me just sitting there like

00:05:31.800 when i'm watching a video like that so you need to add an element to it to make it your own but

00:05:35.460 yeah that's not really what I was doing for the long time if you talk about the real me

00:05:39.660 I was uh making because you started when you were 14 14 yeah I was making I was making red pill

00:05:46.080 content back when I was 14 15 talking about how I want to make it out of the matrix I don't want

00:05:50.280 to be working a nine-to-five I don't want to be a slave I don't want to regret my life I don't

00:05:54.740 want to be 40 and look back and then just like regret not ever starting where's that coming from

00:06:01.900 at the age of 14 because that's like you're thinking like somebody who's 10 years older

00:06:07.840 like that's it's not normal i'm saying it's impressive but like how are you thinking you're

00:06:13.380 thinking like that already at that age i grew up in the woke mind in the the liberal hive mind

00:06:19.160 everybody ticking exactly it's doing exactly what they're supposed to do always afraid always

00:06:23.980 prefacing a statement by like i'm not racist i'm not homophobic the virtue signaling and i was told

00:06:29.820 that I was wrong a lot. I was told that I was a bad person. By who? By everyone, by my school,

00:06:35.460 my teachers, a lot of times, like my elders, my parents, and people around me, the doctors,

00:06:41.760 they said I had mental disabilities, stuff like this. But I always knew my, I always trusted that

00:06:46.020 my intentions were pure. And so I didn't believe them from a young age. And so I knew in my heart

00:06:52.860 that there wasn't something wrong with me, that this life that they were offering is just not

00:06:57.260 what i wanted to do i didn't want to take that path i didn't want to be like them i wanted to

00:07:02.040 live independent and free and you know fly to dubai if i want to so at that point at that age

00:07:07.200 you you felt this need to almost voice your opinions in a way you started making videos you

00:07:13.960 were uh gaming am i right but then when you were gaming you were doing these commentaries

00:07:19.100 where you were just expressing your thoughts and then after that you started doing the sit-down

00:07:23.980 videos where you were talking about some a little wide variety of topics did you feel like that

00:07:30.440 when you were doing that you were very quickly building up an audience at that stage it was

00:07:36.920 pretty quick and then i took a lot of years off because when you live chronically online you run

00:07:42.780 out of things to say there's just you have no life experience you have nothing to talk about besides

00:07:46.700 just being on the internet you see a lot of channels like that that's why they choose to make

00:07:49.720 documentaries about somebody else because they have nothing about their life that they can speak

00:07:53.560 about. So they choose to speak about somebody else's experience. So I took some years off,

00:07:58.320 but it did grow pretty quickly. But a lot of people rush it. My first 100 videos,

00:08:04.400 I would refresh on my laptop. This was before YouTube. Back in the day, I think you remember

00:08:09.260 this. They used to freeze the YouTube views at 301 plus views. And there you could see my first

00:08:13.700 100 videos all say 301 plus because it wasn't getting... I was just refreshing on my laptop

00:08:18.820 trying to get the views to go up.

00:08:20.280 I was bad for a while, but I learned a lot

00:08:23.260 and I didn't have any expectations of it.

00:08:25.360 I think people now, they get into it

00:08:27.040 and they want to go viral.

00:08:29.320 They want to blow up.

00:08:30.120 There's this idea, oh, I blew up.

00:08:31.700 Doing what?

00:08:32.200 Like, what is it about you?

00:08:33.300 Like, I just want to blow up

00:08:34.260 while you don't add anything to the world.

00:08:36.980 I just always enjoyed doing that more than anything.

00:08:40.360 That's all.

00:08:40.700 I think I've always understood that inspiration

00:08:42.900 is the highest form of human achievement.

00:08:46.140 That that's what makes you happiest.

00:08:47.640 Do you feel like you're doing that though with these reaction videos? Because you could argue

00:08:51.680 the sit down videos and the well put together vlogs you were doing earlier on, they were

00:08:57.860 potentially adding more value than maybe these pretty crazy reaction videos.

00:09:03.980 I see them as a marketing tool. That's not all I do. I make my own content. I'm about to go back

00:09:11.380 to the States and do a movie, my first movie. And I see this as a way to monetize the attention

00:09:18.980 economy in the short form. I saw how everything shifted and I was making cinematic, artistic

00:09:24.500 type videos that were taking months to edit. The most all-nighters, just me in my room,

00:09:30.560 not sleeping, drinking coffee, scripting, rewriting, editing, and then you package it up and you post

00:09:35.580 it and then someone can react to my video and get more views get more money and just overall

00:09:42.200 monetize it more than i did from a month of focusing on this so it's just like why am i

00:09:46.360 spending all this time working on this when social media does not favor that type of content you need

00:09:50.960 to to put your foot into both this but if you want it to last i was noticing it was starting

00:09:56.620 to plateau after a while doing the same thing because everybody else was just if you stream

00:10:01.680 for five hours it's compared to what you can do in long for editing and artistic videos it's just

00:10:09.720 not fair so i don't see it as i understand what you're saying but i see it as a marketing tool

00:10:15.820 what i would imagine for a lot of people if they're wanting to get started there is the least

00:10:21.260 amount of cost involved in terms of time and effort when you can just react to somebody else's

00:10:26.620 video. And if you're good at reacting, you can very quickly build an audience. But do you then

00:10:31.880 want to be in a position where you're just constantly reacting to other people's content?

00:10:35.200 No, I don't even see that as a lot of time I react to things that I completely disagree with.

00:10:40.080 And that will be the title. And it's a way for me, if you watch a lot of the reaction videos,

00:10:43.900 it's mostly just for the clickbait. It's for to get people to be drawn in to talk about a certain

00:10:48.860 subject so that then I can go and do my own commentary, have my own. Because there's something

00:10:55.140 about watching something else and getting that spark and realizing the idea in the moment so

00:10:59.980 that you can you can go on your own tangent and make your own your own commentary about it a lot

00:11:04.740 of them if it was just purely a reaction video i don't think that i would have had any success

00:11:09.100 yeah talk to me a little bit about the brief experience and encounter working with mr beast

00:11:14.480 it wasn't that brief it was we are working together talking on and off for a long time

00:11:22.200 since the Call of Duty days,

00:11:23.840 since those commentary video days.

00:11:28.200 And I saw him branch off.

00:11:30.860 We went into different routes.

00:11:32.120 You know, obviously I'm doing this

00:11:33.140 and I'm trying to talk about red pill ideas,

00:11:35.720 try to get into the truth,

00:11:36.640 who controls the world.

00:11:38.160 And he's never going to be speaking about that.

00:11:40.120 No.

00:11:40.680 I mean, it's actually smarter.

00:11:42.500 If you think about it,

00:11:42.960 it gives you more longevity.

00:11:44.360 And he's going to be the next major CEO,

00:11:46.940 the next Elon Musk,

00:11:48.080 the next Mark Zuckerberg is that guy.

00:11:49.560 mr beast was just uh always optimized and seeing social media for what it was and how to use it as

00:11:57.020 a tool i started off thinking of it as like an extension of myself how youtube used to be like

00:12:05.500 a diary or it used to be someone would open up and play photo booth and it'd be there like way to

00:12:10.580 broadcast their life or give people an update i saw social media like it's this really pure form

00:12:15.180 of just like communicating with people

00:12:16.480 where he was seeing it as like, this is Netflix.

00:12:19.360 This is the movie.

00:12:20.120 This is the entertainment of the world.

00:12:21.860 I always thought that it was just an extension of you,

00:12:23.780 which is not the best way to see it.

00:12:26.100 You have to see it as a business.

00:12:28.720 So I learned a lot from him,

00:12:30.640 but I didn't understand everything

00:12:32.100 that he was doing at the time.

00:12:33.520 But I think back to that now and just,

00:12:35.760 you could see if you say that I was ahead of 14,

00:12:38.180 this guy is decades ahead.

00:12:40.000 He's 24.

00:12:40.760 I guess you had your first taste of working for someone else

00:12:45.080 And I guess not liking the idea of working for someone else.

00:12:48.260 Like you want to be your own boss.

00:12:49.920 I had that repeatedly.

00:12:51.180 There was a lot of other YouTubers and people solidified in the game

00:12:54.900 that saw my potential at a young age.

00:12:57.500 And that was a repeated...

00:12:59.600 Did they want to take you in?

00:13:00.800 Yeah.

00:13:01.120 And I never wanted to do that.

00:13:02.580 There are people, I don't want to say their names.

00:13:04.500 But I think a lot, guys like Keemstar,

00:13:07.300 I had an opportunity to work for him when I was around 15.

00:13:10.820 And it was the same thing.

00:13:11.840 I just realized, I don't want to work for you.

00:13:13.080 I want to do my, I want to be the guy.

00:13:15.080 I don't want to have to go and make your – this is why I'm here.

00:13:19.580 It's not to be working for you.

00:13:22.320 It's the same thing with – yeah, this happened repeatedly, Andrew Schultz and stuff like that.

00:13:26.180 But that was – I probably didn't need that learning experience three times.

00:13:31.120 I could have learned quickly that I just need to do this for myself.

00:13:33.980 But what's difficult for the social media people, for the influencers of my people, my generation, my age,

00:13:41.420 like people who grew up on this is trying to actively find real life experience so that you

00:13:48.040 have something to talk about yeah i think that's the problem with a lot of younger youtubers like

00:13:54.280 how can you talk about life when you haven't really been out there and experienced it yet

00:13:58.380 it's natural for people in their 30s and 40s because they've just lived life they've had

00:14:03.200 real jobs but if you grow up doing this and i've had little jobs back and forth but not really

00:14:08.880 You know, Myron was telling me that it doesn't count.

00:14:11.780 People aren't going to respect this stuff.

00:14:12.860 I've worked as like a secretary.

00:14:14.400 I worked at a couple of restaurants, Uber Eats, stuff like that.

00:14:16.640 But it's like, I didn't spend years clocking in, clocking out and being part of that system.

00:14:21.560 So there's kind of a cognitive dissonance where I can't relate to people.

00:14:27.760 So I noticed myself like actively trying to find ways to become more relatable

00:14:34.320 so that I can become a more effective speaker.

00:14:37.300 which is it's a weird way to to approach the world like i let me let me do what's more difficult so

00:14:46.540 that i can learn things let me let me take the more difficult path so that it's harder that's

00:14:53.260 why i like to cancel it because now i can see things from a different lens it's not easy and

00:14:57.620 so there's there's a struggle there's something to fight against there's something to talk about

00:15:01.760 yeah because i imagine if when you're at such a young age and you've already built a massive

00:15:06.580 following i mean it's it's so easy to capitalize on that and make money and you've already got that

00:15:12.780 fame it's i can't imagine those people are really going to struggle unless like you said they get

00:15:18.840 kicked off the platform which i'm grateful for i'm grateful for that because the life it's so

00:15:26.280 meaningless without that it becomes too easy and you see a lot of guys like a lot of streamers

00:15:31.180 they they go off into paths of degeneracy and they just surround themselves with a bunch of

00:15:39.480 garbage because they they have no reason to do the right thing every day life is handed to them so

00:15:44.420 why not take the easy route it's uh it's a strange existence and that could be a path

00:15:49.980 look what happened with the disney stars for example they got everything handed to them at

00:15:53.200 a very young age and then they they have all the fame they have all the validation for people they

00:15:57.740 have drug problems in the end and it's a it's a they never really have a childhood did they

00:16:02.900 a normal childhood no which is why you need to seek normalcy have you ever gone through a phase

00:16:08.400 where you've just gone off the rails gone on a mad one oh yeah yeah when was the first time you

00:16:14.100 did that did you have a little break after you initially kind of you're doing a few years on

00:16:17.960 youtube and then you stopped had a bit of time off yeah when i had some time off i was spending a lot

00:16:22.580 of time in school i mean i think the big reason that i stopped for a while was just partying

00:16:27.820 doing drugs drinking not really doing much just thinking a lot it's uh

00:16:35.440 and i wasn't fulfilling my purpose i wasn't doing what was difficult but

00:16:40.880 the yeah the partying and the degeneracy i really i did that quite a bit it's very easy to get

00:16:47.160 sucked into i've been there numerous times but like you said when you feel like you're wasting

00:16:51.780 your potential you're not fulfilling your purpose it kind of that will almost lead you to kind of

00:16:56.720 sink into this spiral of depression and you're thinking well what's the point their life is

00:17:01.400 meaningless at that point and if you if you have no direction if you if you don't have a goal in

00:17:06.400 mind then you're inevitably going to be depressed that's just that's the only path so i would say

00:17:11.700 to anyone watching this like you this is why i think it's extremely important to to believe in

00:17:16.020 god or have some sort of religion because if you have no religion if you have no god at all what

00:17:21.320 ends up becoming your God is wokeness. That's just what replaces it. Wokeness is degeneracy,

00:17:26.760 is drugs, is the cancel culture thing, is living online and the celebrity drama, gossip,

00:17:32.820 cancel culture, being upset at other people, invested in other people's lives. That whole

00:17:37.100 woke social media hive mind, that will replace it because humans just need some sort of religion.

00:17:43.020 I was trying to be an atheist for a long time. And I've realized that as an atheist for like

00:17:47.680 seven years that if you don't have any structure, if you don't have any belief system, that will

00:17:52.660 take it over. And just look at any person, look at what woke people look like. Do you want to be

00:17:57.980 like them? If you look at the people who make documentaries about me, look at their life

00:18:02.620 because they've analyzed my life all day long, nonstop. It's a great system. What's going to

00:18:08.860 get more views is if you say the devastated, the fall off. Yeah, it's negative. The negativity

00:18:14.000 because it makes people feel better

00:18:16.000 about their meaningless existence.

00:18:18.080 When you're in that depressed phase,

00:18:19.820 when you're living a life without direction,

00:18:21.760 what makes you feel better

00:18:22.780 is to see other people failing as well.

00:18:24.500 They don't feel so bad about yourself.

00:18:25.980 You don't need to self-reflect.

00:18:26.940 Look at another person failing.

00:18:28.020 Oh, he's there too.

00:18:29.200 So they don't like to see somebody succeed

00:18:31.160 because it invalidates their failure.

00:18:33.700 A lot of what cancel culture is about

00:18:36.440 and what people talk about on social media

00:18:37.960 is just to justify why their life is the way it is.

00:18:42.700 yeah it's not my fault i am depressed i'm anxious or i'm a gender fluid i'm a afro latina queer

00:18:50.920 whatever i'm a fat person and it's not my fault they they will come up with different ways and

00:18:57.200 attribute it to wokeness to justify their failures it's a crazy world that there's so many people out

00:19:03.360 there that have built their platforms literally just from talking shit about other people like

00:19:08.800 that is literally their main point of content it's it can't be a happy existence no you can't

00:19:15.040 be a happy person doing that i would say for people watching i'm sure you've had your fair

00:19:19.040 share of haters especially i mean fitness guy all right the majority of the the negative videos are

00:19:24.540 just accusing me to take steroids there's many of them mike thurston that you're not they don't

00:19:29.240 know anything about me they just look at me make assumptions make the video because they think

00:19:33.700 it'll get views well it makes them feel better if they if you have uh if they have a smaller chest

00:19:38.280 Like what's going to make them feel better?

00:19:39.500 The fact that, oh, he cheated, you know?

00:19:41.720 But look at anybody who's spending time

00:19:43.980 to spread negativity online.

00:19:46.060 They're doing an analysis on somebody else.

00:19:48.880 So take a good look and try to analyze yourself.

00:19:51.420 Like, would you like to be like that person

00:19:53.020 making that video?

00:19:54.060 Look at their life, look at their face,

00:19:55.600 look at what they talk about,

00:19:56.780 look at their existence.

00:19:57.580 Are they gaming all day?

00:19:58.860 Do they seem like a happy person?

00:20:00.140 Are they traveling?

00:20:01.640 Are they in shape?

00:20:02.760 Are they somebody that's a good role model?

00:20:05.360 Because if they're saying that someone like me

00:20:07.700 is a bad person, that I'm racist, misogynistic, I'm an incel, then what are you? You're saying

00:20:14.500 that you know better than me, then what are you? Analyze yourself too. I think that that's a fair

00:20:19.300 thing for the next person to make a documentary. And shout out to the next person. There's someone

00:20:22.980 right now watching this who's clipping this up for a documentary in the future. You're going to

00:20:27.760 see this in a face the next time they come up with a word. I don't know what else they can call me,

00:20:32.380 whatever, ist. I've been called pretty much all of them. You're going to see this. They're

00:20:37.240 watch there's someone right now some nerd studying this on a laptop like laying like this

00:20:41.460 needing to to bring this down well because they know it'll get views because the other ones have

00:20:47.560 got views it's a it's a great it's a great system to go viral i would encourage you guys to do it

00:20:52.940 man if your views are low you know make a video just make a video and talk down on my life so

00:20:59.100 in the earlier years you obviously you're doing a lot of youtube but you also had a brief

00:21:02.440 career and taste of modeling and stand-up what was that like stand-up comedy was

00:21:09.060 it was a good way to to humble myself takes balls to do that yeah that that was yeah standing in

00:21:15.820 front of a stage or standing on a stage and talking to an audience it's i think that's the

00:21:20.300 best way to develop self-awareness if you don't have that especially for social media people

00:21:25.380 and having this only communicating through phones and computers,

00:21:30.160 you lose that communication.

00:21:33.300 It will give you the tools you need to analyze a room,

00:21:37.100 to really look at yourself and figure out what people think of you

00:21:41.580 and how you're perceived because you can't hide anything.

00:21:45.160 You can hide a lot on social media.

00:21:47.160 You can construct an entire character like it's The Sims on Instagram.

00:21:50.680 You can just become whatever you want to be on social media.

00:21:53.120 When you're standing on it, there's nothing.

00:21:54.440 anything any little tics the way you talk anything you're hiding any bullshit will be exposed and i

00:22:01.340 think that that was great to to figure out how to become a more effective communicator did you do

00:22:05.960 that because you thought you know i'm pretty funny i think i'm funny so i'm gonna give this a try

00:22:10.880 yeah that was i i never really believed that when i did it that much and i think you have to

00:22:16.560 as a stand-up comedian but i think that that belief immediately makes you unfunny yeah thinking

00:22:22.260 that like i'm funny it's like you know that you talk to that person at dinner something like that

00:22:26.140 hey she's the funny girl and then she's just being loud and just talking over everyone because i'm

00:22:31.320 this was my personality it's just stop yeah it's annoying i i never really believed that i i like

00:22:37.040 stand-up comedy i love stand-up comedy because of how effective it is at getting to the truth

00:22:42.360 because you you can't hide it when there's people and it's just you and a mic there's nothing that

00:22:46.300 you're able to to hide so inevitably the truth is there and you also have the the jury right

00:22:52.200 there in front of you like whatever you say will be judged just staring at you with a cold face

00:22:58.180 and you hear it immediately you know if they're laughing what you're saying has some semblance

00:23:01.940 of truth and if they're quiet then then it's it's a i can't imagine that i mean that must be

00:23:08.560 something which will develop your confidence and your ability to not give a fuck like nothing

00:23:14.120 surely nothing will be better doing other than that even joe rogan was he talks about a few times

00:23:18.460 about bombing on stage you know when you just you make jokes no one's laughing and then you just go

00:23:24.100 like just continue to make jokes and nobody laughs like that must be an excruciating experience did

00:23:30.400 you did you experience that one of the most humbling experiences of all time i i've done

00:23:34.940 pretty well on stage too there's clips out online of like my finalized set i did a five minute set

00:23:39.440 and that was like six months of preparing this material going back and forth trying it at

00:23:44.520 different mics and tweaking it and really doing that whole process that standard comedians talk

00:23:48.020 about i had a really good five minute set out there um at the ice house but the bombing wow

00:23:53.500 when i was developing that set like trying to talk about i had these jokes about the n-word and like

00:23:58.560 being mixed race and like not being able to understand if i fit it in different places and

00:24:02.840 trying to to craft jokes about being able to say the n-word well that was difficult like because i

00:24:08.400 because i wanted to really figure it out did in front of white crowds and in front of black crowds

00:24:12.360 did in front of liberal crowds mixed crowds and it was it was the most uncomfortable thing is when

00:24:18.260 so i used to so i was trying this joke uh to see it like because i i'm half or i'm a quarter black

00:24:26.040 half asian like trying to be able to say uh the n-word or not like can i say it i don't remember

00:24:30.240 exactly what the joke was but it was bad it was something it was cringe and then some guy in the

00:24:34.600 front i said the joke it's quiet and he goes this nigga and the whole the whole crowd's laughing

00:24:41.500 at what the guy in the front said and i'm just here like

00:24:43.920 nigga it's just like and now it's over like he's the comedian now and i'm still on stage like

00:24:50.400 you can't what else how are you gonna go and get out of that hole it's it's a social situation that

00:24:55.840 is it's some of the most humbling experiences that i've ever had was on stage developing those

00:25:02.420 jokes but it's it's fun to look back at yeah what about the uh the modeling was

00:25:07.800 that was also realizing that i i've been there before i had a very brief i had a brief career

00:25:15.560 but it was it's a weird weird industry photographers really creepy the people who

00:25:21.660 are actually like employing you like deciding whether or not you are the look or whether

00:25:26.800 you're fast the look yeah oh you have a look it's just like you know it's yeah i'm not for me they

00:25:32.520 were saying oh you're too big like you need to lose size and i was like but i love being big

00:25:36.520 so you want me to change and to be smaller and like waste this gift that i have just to fit in

00:25:43.360 with what is apparently the look trendy yeah how long did you last in that it was it was like a

00:25:52.220 it was a bit of a side hustle which i guess went on for maybe two years yeah same thing it was a

00:25:56.240 side hustle for me for about two years i i figured i would do it because you know if i'm gonna get

00:26:00.220 paid for what i look like i might as well it's not that much it was great way to travel i did

00:26:04.480 burberry before in london so that was like you know you get to fly out be in a hotel in london

00:26:08.500 you're around models that was a big part like okay yeah trying to pick up models is one thing

00:26:13.800 but being on the set with the models it's pretty it's just slight work yeah she's right across

00:26:18.840 afterwards the after parties you're just like hey let's go get it you've been working all day you're

00:26:22.640 able to go and and flirt with her on set all day long and you know you're sitting next to each other

00:26:27.260 in the makeup chair all this stuff it's easy that that was uh the big part of it that that uh i'm

00:26:32.200 sure you uh probably had fun with that but yeah it's a way to travel but it doesn't pay well though

00:26:36.760 not at all like even the burberry one i mean like two thousand dollars for a week something like

00:26:41.480 that it's not it's not very lucrative women make five times more pretty much but and you have to

00:26:47.540 be like at the top of top of the game as well top of the top it is it's so many castings going back

00:26:53.040 and forth and just being judged and looked at by different people the photographers are weird

00:26:57.820 and if you want to talk about wokeness like that whole industry there's a lot of people in there

00:27:03.820 you know and i think they have a specific agenda of what they want to put i mean the whole industry

00:27:08.340 is run by gay guys yeah the whole and they pretty much set the beauty standards of the fashion

00:27:12.480 everything and you see what's coming out with balenciaga and i don't know it's just i think

00:27:17.140 that they're they have a strange agenda these the the photo shoots and the campaigns they're doing

00:27:21.380 it's just i look at it and i'm like what is going on that is weird really weird but everyone's just

00:27:28.020 kind of i understand it's an art and it's like a way of expression but there's a there's a line

00:27:32.720 which you can cross which i think is happening a lot more frequent now but every so many people

00:27:37.720 just like oh okay that's cool yeah they turn away yeah i mean it is i guess it is artistic and

00:27:45.320 expressive but when you really look at what they're spreading a lot of it just is satanism

00:27:49.600 and why does that have what does that have to do with fashion why are you actively just trying to

00:27:55.180 disrespect god to put on clothes i not for me i don't like that industry so after those brief

00:28:03.140 stints doing those things you came back to youtube you had a little successful series which was the

00:28:08.500 one minute podcast how did you get the idea for that that was from stand-up comedy a big part of

00:28:14.960 it was i love crowd work i like when you can just get on stage and a lot of uh stand-up comics will

00:28:20.960 put themselves in situations where they'll just talk to the people in the front and try to come

00:28:24.560 up with material on the spot like that and you can see things being created just off simple

00:28:28.420 situations like that also changed my mind from steven crowder him sitting up i like i love the

00:28:33.500 setup of just like here camera in public just like this you have a sign you sit down you're

00:28:38.200 just talking to strangers in and out and i thought it'd be really good to do in new york because new

00:28:42.020 York is that's like the stand-up comedy city so there's like people are getting on and off the

00:28:46.000 train it's quick they in and out I just had this this um vision in mind of that table with the

00:28:52.200 trains and people just get off the train and sit down for a second and then leave and I could talk

00:28:56.040 about any subject I really enjoyed that and I just did one too I forgot about that you just really

00:29:01.040 reminded me I need to to get my editor to finish it I asked was people about a certain shot in New

00:29:07.320 York. And that was pretty eyeopening. I think that that was what really made me see the woke

00:29:12.520 mind for what it was and how everybody, how much everybody's virtue signaling, especially in New

00:29:17.600 York. What really, I first started asking questions about, my favorite one was, is it okay to be fat?

00:29:24.760 That was when the rise of fat acceptance. And I just asked that question and seeing everybody

00:29:29.460 trip over their own words, trying to justify why it's okay to be fat, even though they know it's

00:29:33.720 unhealthy, even though they know it's up to personal responsibility and it's their decision.

00:29:38.920 They were just like, well, I don't like the word fat. It's just, and you could see the mental

00:29:44.220 gymnastics that they go through in order to say something that they know is not true.

00:29:48.000 That made me realize how much everybody is programmed and seeing how quickly I was able to,

00:29:52.980 I was able to predict conversation points up to like the fifth and sixth level. Like I knew what

00:29:57.820 they were going to say next and just have the questions prepared because of, you can just

00:30:01.620 figure out the steps of the woke mind that i think that's a great series but you had to kind of i

00:30:07.540 guess stop that because of covid yeah so then you went back to just doing at that point you did your

00:30:12.960 research man oh yeah so after that you went back and you did more did you start doing the reaction

00:30:19.260 videos then what happened after like during covid time yeah that was so i started that series and

00:30:24.720 it was i figured out like this is something that i can do like this is my it was the combination

00:30:28.900 of everything that I was good at elements of stand-up comedy of commentary conversational

00:30:33.320 skills cinematics as well I think that that series is very visually appealing I was combining

00:30:38.180 everything that I'm really good at in one series and then COVID happened and I only got to make

00:30:43.700 two of those videos and so that was that made me feel very defeated like I finally figured it out

00:30:49.120 coming with with YouTube content like when you don't do anything else it becomes repetitive it

00:30:55.580 becomes it's difficult and that was like that was like i got it i finally found the series and so i

00:31:00.360 just went now i'm back in the house now i'm back here and i'm in liberal new york city where

00:31:04.300 everyone it was the epicenter there's a weird point in time that was like literally like i am

00:31:09.720 legend zombie apocalypse it was quiet like i went out and did videos in time square and i was the

00:31:15.920 only person in time square yeah where the ball drop is where everybody knows the giants everybody

00:31:20.280 knows and i'm the only person there it was just it felt like i was walking around in a video game

00:31:25.420 And so that really shook up my reality a lot

00:31:29.140 and made me have to triple down

00:31:30.880 to figure out what the next step was.

00:31:32.860 So during that point in time, that year,

00:31:34.260 what type of content were you doing?

00:31:37.400 What was I doing?

00:31:39.020 That's when I did start to realize

00:31:41.100 that reaction videos were the way to go.

00:31:43.260 Because I'm like, okay, how do I make videos inside?

00:31:45.260 Well, I need something to talk about.

00:31:46.560 I've talked about everything that I don't...

00:31:50.340 And I was also pretty directionless at the time.

00:31:52.040 That's when I...

00:31:52.420 was that the time when you were quite open about uh a relationship that you were in

00:31:58.760 yeah and you kind of yeah around that yeah what was your what have you learned from that experience

00:32:05.040 that it's not the same for men and women dad yeah that's degenerate and it was just yeah that's

00:32:11.920 what happens like when you have no purpose you don't have a goal you just end up i was just at

00:32:16.100 a swinger party because i'm just listening to red pill people like fat people online saying like

00:32:20.620 this is how to make it fair and you don't have the right voices in your head like that that's

00:32:25.300 that's where you end up at a swinger party what i've learned is when it comes to relationships

00:32:29.640 most of that should just be kept in private like anytime you'd because i've done it before i was

00:32:35.980 really public about uh swinger parties about a relationship which i was in this was in 2020

00:32:42.740 you don't share that with the internet because then i shared too much then everybody was just

00:32:46.960 like way too involved in my own business and when i was like like almost being overly open and

00:32:53.840 sharing my experience people then will judge you on your actions and how you treated the situation

00:32:59.240 and then it created this big divide and i was like you know what fuck ever being public about

00:33:04.640 my relationships again yeah like it's i definitely don't want to be doing yeah everybody warned me

00:33:09.220 about that too i've been public with all my relationships like the my last three long-term

00:33:13.580 relationships were all very well documented online did a lot of i did videos i would bring them

00:33:18.500 in my content that was that was a big one was uh one of my girlfriends during court like we do

00:33:23.140 videos like girlfriend cuts my hair you know because you can't you can't go to the barber

00:33:27.300 and yeah it's better in a way that's private that's cool though like doing stuff together

00:33:33.080 like that that's like that's good content for girls yeah girls love that but when you get too

00:33:38.160 deep you know that's when it gets a bit sketchy people become really autistic and analytical

00:33:43.840 about your life and they they won't yeah they like talking about that stuff but yeah the reason

00:33:48.920 i ignored people telling me not to talk about that stuff is like i've always trusted that my

00:33:53.200 intentions were good and that were were honest and i i like honesty i like transparency you know i i

00:33:59.200 i've grown up online i've shared everything so i'm not going to keep anything private yeah i think

00:34:02.940 that's what people don't really understand is that you you have been very honest and even though

00:34:08.800 you your thoughts your views your opinions have been things which a lot of people maybe don't

00:34:14.040 agree with they have to respect the fact that you are literally just speaking what you think

00:34:18.280 which is rare these days yeah people virtue signal more and they analyze more than people people are

00:34:25.080 not honest people don't like to to share their actual beliefs because they don't want to be

00:34:29.060 challenged people say what they're insecure too a lot of people they they say what they think should

00:34:34.600 be heard yeah what they think is going to be perceived the right way instead of putting an

00:34:39.480 idea out there and letting it be challenged and letting starting open debate having discussions

00:34:43.800 i think that that's very important conversations are are the way that we find the truth nobody

00:34:49.020 wants to throw it out an idea on social media and let it be criticized because they always want to

00:34:53.620 put themselves up as the as a perfect figure as as if they know everything but if you grow up on

00:34:59.340 it and if you are on it from every you're going to be wrong if you're just throwing out ideas and

00:35:05.800 trying to be challenged but people it's it's really funny to me how many people will talk

00:35:11.000 professionally and not want to engage in dialogue or in debate if you strongly hold these beliefs

00:35:18.300 you should be able to to have them be challenged i think that's very important do you think that's

00:35:23.060 because they're scared of not being able to back up their views and opinions or more so because

00:35:29.280 they just don't want to get canceled it's both but i would say i would say the first one more

00:35:34.260 i think people like believing what they believe and you could see how like leftists for example

00:35:39.540 they don't even know how to be around people that disagree with them yeah if they if they

00:35:44.840 have a disagreement then they need they're like don't like they take it personally they get

00:35:50.120 they get offended they get frustrated and upset they get angry don't have the ability to back up

00:35:55.840 their points and what their opinions are so you must be a bad person if you disagree with me

00:36:01.580 yeah it's it's really insane i i've i talk with people on the left all the time i have i have a

00:36:07.920 lot of friendships and relationships with people that i disagree with on everything and you could

00:36:12.040 see like the people in the comments and other woke people they're like how is this possible

00:36:16.460 they don't even they can't comprehend talking to somebody that they disagree with yeah and even

00:36:22.100 like with my friendship groups and the people who i'm cool with i don't agree with everything they

00:36:27.560 say like there's many times we have different points of views but that doesn't matter like i

00:36:31.520 can still be friends with them i can still be cool with them and like even with uh my partner

00:36:35.860 my relationships it's okay if we have different i mean as long as we have the same values the

00:36:40.640 majority of the time but if we're you know if we have different opinions that's it's good it's

00:36:45.160 normal it makes for more interesting dialogue too if i if i agree with somebody on everything like

00:36:48.980 what are we going to talk about yeah what are we going to have to say speaking of disagreements

00:36:53.160 i feel like you've managed to have beef with the majority of the youtubers on the platform

00:37:00.460 do you do you regret any of those beefs

00:37:04.000 because i think beefing is it's an interesting one because you can you can almost pre-plan to

00:37:12.560 have this beef with a youtuber and you both will have not only content fresh content but you may

00:37:19.920 get each other's following so it could be a strategic way to grow and to have something

00:37:25.600 to talk about but at the same time it can make you look like you have been too easily offended

00:37:31.780 and you want to get sucked into this drama and you may like i'm sure you've experienced you

00:37:37.600 burn bridges and you know potentially a lot of bridges yeah none of my beefs were orchestrated

00:37:43.940 i think some people ask that sometimes you see that was purely emotion where you reacted and

00:37:50.100 you're like you know what fuck this guy i've never really started it like that well there's

00:37:56.820 a couple i would say let's say for example certain someone leaves a comment on a video

00:38:01.900 it's like four words but it's the top comment he's for the streets oh that yeah yeah so i remember

00:38:08.880 that one so that one that one wasn't a beef that was just like i don't like anything you talk about

00:38:15.960 you're promoting quarantine you're promoting cancel culture you you're the embodiment of exactly

00:38:22.340 what i don't think is masculine and what we're supposed to be doing you don't spread the truth

00:38:27.360 and so that was just uh that was a show that was like a reason to to be able to um to make a whole

00:38:33.640 video do you regret that though making that video no not at all what do you think uh why do you ask

00:38:38.940 that because i'm thinking there's so like i will get some negativity like anybody who's making

00:38:45.440 videos on youtube you are going to get criticized you are going to get some shit from people the

00:38:50.980 majority of the time i will acknowledge it i will obviously react first based on my emotions but i

00:38:58.280 don't do anything i just walk off and i just think about it let myself cool down and usually most of

00:39:04.680 the time i'm like it's not worth it and i just carry on doing what i'm doing and i feel like

00:39:09.360 you know i'm above them like i don't want to resort to their level and react and even give

00:39:17.080 them more exposure you know what i mean it's like the top that one for example the top rappers in

00:39:22.620 the game jay-z eminem they never beef with anyone because they don't need to eminem beefs with

00:39:27.720 people eminem was beefing with uh some mid-tier rappers jay-z was beefing with them and i understand

00:39:34.000 what you're saying but that's when i realized how powerful reactionary content is being like that

00:39:41.260 beef and how like enticing and entertaining drama is people like to see the back and forth that

00:39:47.060 like mental sparring it's it's it's it's interesting and it gives you something to talk

00:39:51.860 about that one for example like people say like you made a whole reaction the guy's name is uh

00:39:56.380 d'angelo wall since then i think he quit youtube i think he he did hasn't responded to that but

00:40:01.260 yeah i mean that guy was canceling he was the face of twitter cancel culture and just making

00:40:07.040 on youtube like the face of virtue signaling telling saying that people were bad for not

00:40:12.460 quarantining saying that people were were evil people they should be canceled we should put

00:40:16.540 these people in jail for having parties and it's like no one's gonna call you out for that i'm just

00:40:20.920 gonna that was uh a way to show that that was not the reason i i made the videos about it i just

00:40:27.240 didn't like anything he was talking about is there any bridges that you burnt that you regret

00:40:31.140 and you think you know actually i'd want to still be cool with this guy or you you good

00:40:35.800 mr beast yeah that was one that i i didn't need to i didn't need to do that but you put a video

00:40:43.000 up and then he just deleted it straight away yeah no one saw it but that's good he saw it he saw it

00:40:47.880 yeah it had like 20 i think barely no no one saw it but him man yeah and so you can't you can't go

00:40:55.880 back from that you don't think he'd ever forgive you i wouldn't i wouldn't i've been i've been

00:41:02.620 thinking a lot about that about how much my mind has been plugged into social media doing it since

00:41:09.200 I was 14 and how much my brain is wired to seek attention from social media.

00:41:17.620 And I think your question is good.

00:41:19.020 Like, do you regret any of these things?

00:41:20.300 Because social media, it's not, I think a lot of people in Gen Z make the mistake that

00:41:25.220 all attention is good attention.

00:41:26.780 That as long as people are talking about me, as long as I have engagement, that is good.

00:41:30.600 But a lot of it is really negative.

00:41:32.040 And just because people are saying it does not mean you're doing anything positive.

00:41:35.280 Just because your phone is blowing up, it doesn't mean that something good is happening.

00:41:39.200 And you see it with different types of rappers, different content creators.

00:41:42.320 And I was standing in the mosque yesterday for the first time and just realized, like, I do this thing.

00:41:47.460 I pick my nails.

00:41:48.660 I constantly do that.

00:41:50.000 But I was sitting there just quiet.

00:41:53.540 Hands weren't moving.

00:41:54.260 Hands weren't shaking.

00:41:54.740 I was very aware of how much my brain has been wired to be, like, almost one with my phone.

00:42:03.040 And that's why I think that I'm going to be effective talking about this.

00:42:07.100 Because I think a lot of people who grew up with social media can relate to that, to how comparison is the thief of joy, how always looking about and comparing yourself to other people online and that can really be detrimental.

00:42:22.840 It's not normal.

00:42:25.040 It's not something that anybody is supposed to go through.

00:42:28.640 It's not something natural for the human experience at all.

00:42:31.160 And that's not touched on enough because it's getting worse.

00:42:35.780 It's getting worse.

00:42:36.480 And I want to show people like the mistakes I've made

00:42:39.200 so that hopefully they don't make the same ones I've made.

00:42:42.820 But it's difficult because how do you try and train yourself

00:42:46.260 to not spend so much time on social media

00:42:48.280 when it is literally sucking you in

00:42:51.020 and it's doing an amazing job?

00:42:51.980 Even for me, like I will go on there

00:42:53.340 and I'll do what I need to do.

00:42:55.200 Half an hour later, I'm still on it.

00:42:58.320 And then I'm like, what am I doing?

00:42:59.960 And then I do the same thing every day.

00:43:01.540 Yeah, I did that this morning.

00:43:02.920 I'm like, what am I doing?

00:43:03.880 I need to go over and call an Uber.

00:43:06.480 I think the trick is you're going to be on it regardless.

00:43:09.660 You're going to be addicted to it,

00:43:10.720 but it's about making it a positive experience,

00:43:14.740 like curating.

00:43:16.080 Choosing what you consume.

00:43:17.480 Choosing what you consume,

00:43:18.620 having the right people that you follow,

00:43:20.660 especially when I go on Instagram,

00:43:22.000 like I was sending you a DM,

00:43:23.080 like where is the location of the spot?

00:43:24.920 And then immediately when I go to the search bar,

00:43:26.660 it goes to the explore page first.

00:43:28.480 And then so many times before I even search

00:43:30.800 the person's name that I'm contacting,

00:43:32.800 literal soft core porn, like right there.

00:43:34.860 And I'm just like, whoa.

00:43:35.880 and then i forget what i'm doing here and so you have to retrain your brain to think that all of

00:43:41.360 this is haram that this is terrible that this is demonic i look at a demon demon demon demon

00:43:45.860 and i just i push that out so i'm able i've reprogrammed my mind to just be something to

00:43:52.660 just look at it and understand all the psyop and all the programming on there one thing i do with

00:43:57.160 my instagram story now is just repost everybody going to the gym and we have these phrases where

00:44:02.240 i'll be like i could be watching netflix right now and then everybody will post it like i could

00:44:06.200 be watching porn right now i could be laying sideways eating chips in my bed right now i could

00:44:11.260 have been making excuses right now i could have been dying my hair blue i could have been canceling

00:44:14.320 somebody and but instead they're showing a picture that they're in the gym and they're doing something

00:44:17.580 positive that is a positive use of social media we're here inspiring each other and we're here

00:44:22.160 every time like all the captions all the quotes are something that is trying to resist that

00:44:26.380 programming i think if you act if you make that part of your life you can retrain your brain but

00:44:32.000 the first step is to understand how much program and how much they try to suck you in because

00:44:37.040 if it's free you're the product and they're they're monetizing your mind they're monetizing

00:44:41.140 your soul they're trying to to take away all your attention and make it so that you're a slave to

00:44:45.120 this so if you if you know that and you're conscious of it and you constantly fight against

00:44:49.640 it you can win speaking of self-help you squash the beef with hamza you're good with him i had

00:44:56.200 on my podcast uh last year it was a year ago no no at the end of last year yeah he was uh he's

00:45:01.600 doing great things man i think uh you do a cool note yeah i would say so i would say so he's in

00:45:07.500 thailand he recently said that he's gonna step away and fully embrace his uh his masculinity

00:45:13.760 he's there like climbing mountains and meditating and journaling and like fighting bears and stuff

00:45:18.300 which i think is good and he's he's not gonna quit it's good that he's doing that because he's

00:45:24.020 gonna come back stronger and have things to talk about because you know you talk about something

00:45:28.420 about self-improvement for so long there's only so much you could say you need to have real life

00:45:32.580 experience you need to have things and and wisdom to share with your audience so he's going to come

00:45:36.180 back stronger what he's doing is really positive and i i realized how why am i beefing with somebody

00:45:41.260 that has a similar message why why there's no there's no point in doing this where we should

00:45:45.800 be on the same team i think it's definitely good to have a bit of time out just to reflect

00:45:50.160 and even to just get out of that routine

00:45:54.440 of making the same content

00:45:56.400 which you've done for so often.

00:45:59.080 Because if you get in the habit of doing it all the time,

00:46:01.240 you think that's what you're supposed to do.

00:46:03.980 And when I've had periods of time off,

00:46:05.720 I look back at the content which I've been making,

00:46:07.400 I'm like, do you know what?

00:46:08.040 I actually don't want to be doing that anymore.

00:46:10.540 I would rather start doing something like this.

00:46:13.460 Like I've had periods of time,

00:46:15.060 I've thought about doing this podcast for a while.

00:46:17.320 I should have done it sooner than I actually did,

00:46:18.820 but I finally got around to doing it.

00:46:20.160 But that came about from having a bit of time off.

00:46:22.720 I think it was, especially in the summer of 2021,

00:46:26.120 like I barely put out any videos,

00:46:27.580 was just partying, enjoying myself.

00:46:30.500 And I thought, yeah, this isn't it.

00:46:33.920 It gets all quick.

00:46:34.720 You need a purpose.

00:46:35.760 Because even the vlogs, they were very sort of,

00:46:38.760 you know, the parties, women, travel, lifestyle.

00:46:42.140 Like it was all very fun.

00:46:42.980 But I think at the end of the day,

00:46:43.820 I was like, this isn't, where's the substance?

00:46:45.920 There's no substance at all.

00:46:47.260 So now I feel like whatever content I'm putting out,

00:46:50.480 I'm hoping that it's going to have some positive effect on the world

00:46:53.300 and for those that view it.

00:46:54.840 And it does enjoy the conversations that you've been having.

00:46:58.880 What's really important, and I noticed a lot of people that do this,

00:47:01.800 because podcasts are, everybody has a podcast now.

00:47:04.100 Everybody's doing it.

00:47:05.240 They lack the ability to show curiosity.

00:47:09.360 And that's what separates yours from a lot of people

00:47:11.620 is that they're not able to sit there

00:47:13.440 and actually try to get into the head pause

00:47:17.480 or try to figure somebody out and show curiosity

00:47:21.220 because that's what made podcasts great

00:47:24.700 a couple of years ago before the rise

00:47:26.640 and everyone's doing it.

00:47:27.620 So like, oh, we get clips for TikTok.

00:47:29.620 There's that type of essence for a lot of them.

00:47:31.980 Like they're just trying to talk about

00:47:33.420 stuff that they know will get clipped up.

00:47:35.000 But the reason that it was interesting

00:47:36.740 in the first way, I credit that to Joe Rogan

00:47:38.400 was the curiosity and how you can document

00:47:41.600 those conversations with the microphone

00:47:43.260 that people have at the dinner table that people have with somebody that they they really want to

00:47:49.000 talk to that's one thing i want to really understand when when you were putting out

00:47:54.660 this was probably the last couple of months when you had your youtube channel

00:47:58.360 when you were getting these early warnings these strikes did you not think oh if i continue i'm

00:48:07.960 gonna get banned or did you know i'm gonna get banned so i'm just gonna go and keep making these

00:48:13.200 videos and maybe even take it as far as i can before i get kicked off that's what i was thinking

00:48:16.880 you knew you were gonna get bent i knew it was pretty much inevitable um and people people

00:48:22.580 warning me and i realized that when they were all telling me this and i didn't care i'm like it's

00:48:29.340 it's gonna happen like when when people were giving me advice like yo you gotta you gotta

00:48:32.680 slow down here this is there's too much going on they're gonna try to get they're getting warnings

00:48:37.580 all the time they were like shutting off my live stream in the middle i was getting strikes warnings

00:48:41.260 people were saying that they should ban me like people make a video saying like youtube should

00:48:45.180 ban sneak i saw that they were getting their viewers to actively go to your channel and flag

00:48:49.680 it which i don't know why that isn't against i thought that that was against youtube policy it's

00:48:53.680 not you're allowed to do that it's insane but i don't think that was the reason i was banned i

00:48:57.940 mean they played me in the senate in the senate committee they said that i was uh inspiring

00:49:01.280 domestic terrorism that's how far i was going but when i when people were saying that a lot of people

00:49:05.880 my elders were saying like you got it and i did it had no effect i'm like man this is just awesome

00:49:10.600 it's inevitable but you just didn't want to listen to them i didn't know very stubborn i guess that's

00:49:16.020 in a way it's a good thing because you you got banned but you got banned for just speaking your

00:49:20.200 mind which is i respect that i'm sure quite a lot of people respect that yeah it wasn't just youtube

00:49:26.640 a lot of people don't know that as well as also twitch i lost uh my twitter been on tiktok twitter

00:49:31.860 i got back thanks to elon but i got wiped like just one by one by one by one all these platforms

00:49:37.740 and you know especially when that's like pretty much your only skill set you know i dropped out

00:49:44.220 of school i mean i'm good at video editing i can run a business online i know how i know how to

00:49:50.240 know to make money but when that's like that's my main thing like oh you're people come up to me

00:49:55.120 like are you that youtuber like no no i'm not when that's your thing and they they wipe you

00:50:01.100 from that it's like you're like what what now what do i do my people in my family were saying

00:50:05.640 like maybe you should just go get a job now like maybe you should just quit this thing that was

00:50:10.560 you just buy the tills at walmart yeah like imagine that like you saw oh you're that youtuber

00:50:15.200 and you're scanning their their camera at best buy god it's it's it's a really a weird but

00:50:23.660 it's working out man rumble is is a is a great platform i i recommend everybody do it and part

00:50:29.020 of the reason when we were talking about social media addiction and how you can reprogram your

00:50:32.660 mind, I think part of it is coming to alternative platforms. Because if you know what the agenda is

00:50:36.800 on these mainstream platforms, I'm the proof of that. You should actively go seek out these. Don't

00:50:41.780 let big tech have a monopoly on your mind. They don't have good intentions. They don't want the

00:50:46.260 best for you. They need you to be a slave to their system. Rumble actually allows free speech

00:50:51.560 and that there's a lot of good creators on there. And I found myself actually browsing the site

00:50:54.780 more. At first, I'm like, okay, it's just like a website where I can host my stuff. It's getting

00:50:58.420 better and there's a lot of great creators on there and i recommend everybody listening to this

00:51:02.760 uh to download rumble yeah i think if they make a couple more improvements hopefully there'll be

00:51:06.880 some more people that go over there but i think ultimately it seems to be the majority of people

00:51:12.020 are on youtube and obviously that must be quite frustrating for you because you can't necessarily

00:51:17.760 reach them and your anything new which is going out there at the moment i guess the good stuff

00:51:23.160 podcasts but then there's other people like we said before just people making videos about you

00:51:27.500 and not allowing you to have your voice

00:51:29.840 and your say on events that have happened.

00:51:33.160 But I'm not even upset about that.

00:51:35.480 The fact that my existence is mostly from

00:51:37.560 like the mouths of the woke people

00:51:39.420 like speaking negatively about me.

00:51:41.080 I think eventually people need truth

00:51:43.100 and people need something.

00:51:44.340 They need some high energy.

00:51:46.320 They need some entertainment.

00:51:47.560 And if everyone is insisting,

00:51:49.100 all these woke people are insisting I'm a bad person,

00:51:51.100 there's gotta be an equal amount of people

00:51:53.200 watching that like, is he?

00:51:54.640 Is he really?

00:51:55.520 A lot of it I think could be good marketing

00:51:57.120 because if they're constantly talking about me

00:51:58.860 and I don't have a channel,

00:51:59.940 there's got to be something enticing there.

00:52:01.720 And if I can be part of that movement

00:52:03.380 to shift people away

00:52:04.400 and let them go to a different platform,

00:52:06.680 then that will make me happy.

00:52:08.420 I wonder if you could rebrand yourself

00:52:10.660 and your image and the way you present yourself,

00:52:16.160 would they allow you back on the platform?

00:52:20.660 And if you could...

00:52:22.740 Would I?

00:52:23.500 Would you?

00:52:24.640 Yeah.

00:52:24.900 because everyone would kind of know like oh it's not really him it's just the censored version of

00:52:32.100 sneaker and there's a new ceo yeah i talked a lot about that the previous season i i i think surely

00:52:41.620 you would be allowed back but you couldn't obviously be doing the same stuff you were doing

00:52:47.060 before and but i think there's you there's definitely a lot of positivity and great

00:52:53.960 messages which you could spread but just in a different way less reactionary less drama driven

00:52:59.800 making less noise stuff like that but it's so much fun at the same time too i kind of like the

00:53:06.760 the challenge and the back and forth of it uh that sparring and uh the constant it's there's

00:53:13.040 something really fun about stirring the pot like that it is yeah like pissing people off you just

00:53:18.620 like he's kind of a masochist yeah i mean i i don't know if i like drama but i like

00:53:23.160 challenging people's ideas and and and shaking the pot i mean obviously on rumble for example

00:53:30.360 there's no one to to beef with there's nobody to because everyone's like yeah i agree with you so

00:53:34.380 that's where it's all positive who there's a lot of people who mentioned the old sneaker so how

00:53:41.340 how would you define the old sneaker and how would you define the new sneaker who are they and how

00:53:46.600 they're different they're not it's the same person you know the people that say i miss the old it's

00:53:51.780 just they haven't progressed at all in life they don't actually miss the old you they miss their

00:53:57.400 they miss that year there's a lot of people that reminisce about the year 2016 or they reminisce

00:54:01.540 about an old album they they miss the memories that they had like when they listened to that

00:54:05.520 album that kanye made in 2004 they don't really miss the old kanye they miss that feeling when

00:54:10.700 they first heard it for the first time and then that feeling it gave them that belief they had

00:54:15.160 that optimism and now they don't have it and so they go blame something else or they they talk

00:54:19.680 about an artist i miss the old thing is is i think it's garbage personally i don't i get that every

00:54:25.280 single day but i it doesn't affect me at all because it's pretty much the same attitude every

00:54:30.080 time i see somebody say that it's like did you did you even watch the old stuff yeah i saw those

00:54:35.200 earlier videos and you were it's it's you talking about the same things talking about the same

00:54:40.680 things so maybe it was just the type of the content no these people that say that they haven't

00:54:46.160 progressed at all in life they're in the same spot and so they they need to they have resentment

00:54:50.940 towards themselves and i think that they say that about the the content creator because i i've

00:54:55.240 completely i progress every single day that's what's warm about is is trying to learn new things

00:55:00.460 and and upgrade my life and if you haven't then i don't understand why but i think there is a

00:55:05.860 certain demographic of people that missed the videos i was making from 2018 to 2020 where i was

00:55:13.220 i've i really tapped into this introspective type of content i'm starting to post some of these

00:55:18.800 videos videos on twitter videos like uh i don't know if you've seen them like 20 years old

00:55:22.740 everything happens for a reason fake it till you make it falling in love is corny but i'm still

00:55:26.880 lonely i was making these cinematic videos and i was smoking weed and it was just like it was kind

00:55:33.200 of deep i guess i was like just talking about a lot of self-reflection a lot of self-reflection

00:55:37.320 and it was like growing pains it was tapping into a certain voice that people have in their head

00:55:42.600 that is not documented online because everybody's trying to uphold a perfect image so i was just

00:55:46.260 talking about like the frustrations growing i guess it was extremely relatable and i was able

00:55:50.500 to do it in four minutes and i would say it was really cinematic too i went come from kind of an

00:55:55.260 artistic background so the angles are different and there was just a different the music i had

00:55:59.760 it was a movie these videos were films and but it's not sustainable on social media but i do

00:56:06.120 want to upgrade you ask about the the i can hear like a little bit when you talk about the reaction

00:56:11.520 stuff like you it's like yeah it's drama based it's very social media i don't want to do this

00:56:16.540 forever like when i go back to to the states i'm doing my my first short film and then that if it

00:56:21.640 does it goes well it's going to turn into a whole feature film i'm going to be acting actually i've

00:56:25.140 never acted in anything before like man i did a stand-up comedy done stand-up comedy done

00:56:29.620 video editing i love film i love creating art so i see this right now the streaming era because

00:56:35.100 it's only been like seven months of me streaming like you said talk about the one minute podcast

00:56:38.720 the stand-up comedy the the call of duty videos i see it each and what i saw youtube as was like

00:56:43.460 a way to express myself i see it as an online journey so this journey right now is streaming

00:56:49.220 and talking about the truth like right now the world needs the red pill more than ever the world

00:56:53.760 needs information like what's on this podcast and so this is what i want to involve myself

00:56:58.540 completely and help as many people as i can spread the truth as much as i can call out the nonsense

00:57:03.220 as much as i can but eventually my plan is is to shift into films and and go into and creating

00:57:10.840 actual art that's why i mean i went to film school and a big reason why i got into youtube when i was

00:57:16.100 younger is that's what that's what really inspired me when i was younger were these films were

00:57:21.420 stand-up comedians speaking the truth so if i i want to eventually go back i want to go back to

00:57:26.560 stand-up comedy this is not forever i feel like you'll definitely need to have quite a bit of

00:57:32.480 control and say when it comes to the films like do you do you want to produce them because i can't

00:57:37.460 you don't just want to be an actor you want to have some no i don't want to acting is not really

00:57:41.420 something i'm that interested in i want to direct them and produce them but i've i think definitely

00:57:47.880 give that a try yeah i'm going to but i want to make enough money so that i can create my own

00:57:52.160 production company that's the the goal and um yeah to have my own say and not you know i want

00:57:58.380 to work for hollywood i don't want to do these garbage movies i don't want to recreate ghost

00:58:01.620 busters with four girls i don't want to do any of that so i'm gonna i'm gonna make my own yeah

00:58:05.260 recent films have been pretty lacking so yeah just recreate every movie from the 80s and make

00:58:10.480 a feminist it's just feminist rebranding of old ideas and they kill off anybody masculine there's

00:58:15.520 a specific agenda with every single movie if you look at it you can see it now every time i watch

00:58:19.580 a film there's some level of woke propaganda always like especially with marvel marvel's

00:58:24.960 going down this weird weird route of like making men look stupid okay it's funny women are the

00:58:31.740 superheroes yeah the blue hair is the winner men are goofy and fat and incompetent they're all

00:58:37.160 they're wrong it's every single not just marvel every movie has this and people are tired of it

00:58:42.820 people can see right through it now yeah speaking of money i would imagine that you're going to be

00:58:47.620 having a harder time trying to create revenue

00:58:51.140 now that you can't be on these big platforms.

00:58:55.020 So what are you doing at the moment

00:58:56.040 to try and bring in some money?

00:58:58.420 People say that, but that's actually not a problem at all.

00:59:00.180 Rumble has a great monetization system.

00:59:02.200 That's one of my streams of revenue.

00:59:03.220 Yeah, it's really good.

00:59:04.820 I recommend any YouTubers watching, even you,

00:59:07.700 to just sign into Rumble.

00:59:09.680 I've got an account.

00:59:10.440 Yeah, copy-paste all your videos onto Rumble.

00:59:13.360 Obviously, the discovery system

00:59:14.920 is not as good as YouTube right now,

00:59:16.720 But I make more money per view on Rumble than I did on YouTube.

00:59:21.400 And the CPM is higher, less views.

00:59:23.800 But yeah, no, it's really good.

00:59:24.840 But that's only one of them.

00:59:26.240 The main one or a big one is the course I have, the creativity kit.

00:59:30.700 I teach content creation.

00:59:32.280 I have a call.

00:59:34.220 I don't want to say lesson.

00:59:35.240 That sounds like I'm too smart.

00:59:36.100 But I do a call once a week.

00:59:37.760 And then I have other professors on there.

00:59:39.580 I have a crypto professor, e-commerce, editing.

00:59:42.660 That's one that I've mastered for months and months of editing.

00:59:45.220 I have editing professors and it's just, it's a community full of red pill people that want to

00:59:48.980 work together. And it's been really, if people have moved in together from the creativity kit,

00:59:54.140 they got out of their, their matrix jobs and they're focusing on developing online businesses

00:59:58.340 and they met through the creativity kit. That's what I think the main benefit of there is the

01:00:02.300 networking opportunities in there because a lot of people are not like-minded. A lot of people

01:00:05.940 just spend their time on social media plugged into nothing. So that's why I love Dubai so much

01:00:10.520 Because you meet a lot of really interesting people who's on it.

01:00:14.220 Right.

01:00:14.540 For sure.

01:00:15.020 That's why I don't want to move out here just yet.

01:00:17.180 Because it's almost, it's like it's, I think you pointed it out.

01:00:22.400 I kind of like the back and forth.

01:00:25.240 I kind of want to stay in the woke place and with the nonsense a little more

01:00:29.020 so I can call it out more.

01:00:30.340 And I have this thing where if I'm here, I think I'm going to be too happy

01:00:34.980 and then there's nothing to talk about.

01:00:36.280 There's nothing to fight against.

01:00:37.360 There's nothing to speak out.

01:00:38.740 i'm just gonna i just enjoy life and like what am i going to talk about if life is is easy yeah

01:00:44.060 for sure what's what's um your relationship with kanya like i saw there's a picture of you and him

01:00:49.560 on instagram what was that about i was working on the campaign on ye 24 okay going back to the

01:00:56.400 modeling no i'm uh the presidential campaign and no i would never go back yeah he was i was there

01:01:06.140 brainstorming and i was like one of the idea guys it didn't last too long i was there for

01:01:11.120 about a couple weeks and but yeah i learned a lot from him and those conversations that i had

01:01:17.240 i'm still analyzing now because there's really nobody that thinks like him he's one of the most

01:01:23.640 unique people that uh you'll ever get the chance to speak to i think i've i've definitely judged

01:01:28.800 him too harshly based on what social media or the way they're presenting him they don't they're

01:01:35.620 presenting him in a good light at all i find so he gives off the the impression that he's some

01:01:40.200 crazy dude who is like lost the plot but i would imagine if you could actually be there and speak

01:01:46.540 to him he's not crazy at all like when you speak to him he's like one of the most brilliant people

01:01:52.540 that you'll be around like sitting around him and doing like having brainstorming sessions

01:01:56.520 like he'll he'll get up and then go into song or then he'll he'll come up with a new idea

01:02:01.480 and the way he's, he gets the best out of everybody that's around him.

01:02:05.200 You're there like actively challenging yourself.

01:02:07.800 Being in those brainstorming sessions on Yay 24,

01:02:11.220 I imagine it was like developing Apple in the 80s with Steve Jobs.

01:02:15.620 Like those sessions where you're just masterminding,

01:02:17.660 creating, being visionaries.

01:02:20.520 That's really what it was all about.

01:02:23.380 So I guess he's crazy.

01:02:25.980 But if you look at the definition of crazy,

01:02:27.360 it's someone who's acting out of the ordinary.

01:02:29.000 and you can't be a visionary

01:02:30.780 if you're acting within the norm.

01:02:32.720 It's going to be the same as everybody else.

01:02:34.600 There needs to be somebody

01:02:35.660 that's able to think outside of the box.

01:02:38.080 And that is him.

01:02:39.620 Everything that he talks about too,

01:02:41.080 a lot of it is,

01:02:43.500 he doesn't come from a podcasting background.

01:02:46.020 He comes from a musical background.

01:02:47.740 So he's not able to communicate

01:02:49.140 on the same level that people are used to.

01:02:51.080 I've seen him on podcasts.

01:02:52.560 You could tell his brain,

01:02:54.480 he's all over the place.

01:02:56.320 He's everywhere.

01:02:57.440 But those are creative geniuses.

01:02:59.000 You need somebody to think like that

01:03:00.900 in order to find that new idea

01:03:02.960 that somebody hasn't caught before.

01:03:04.860 But how did that come to place

01:03:08.560 where you are there with him doing that campaign?

01:03:13.440 I'm friends with a lot of people on the far right

01:03:15.460 and they see me on streams

01:03:18.120 and Milo Yiannopoulos,

01:03:20.320 I think that's how you pronounce his name.

01:03:21.740 He had seen me on one of these streams with Nick Fuentes.

01:03:24.640 He's completely wiped off of all social media,

01:03:27.240 more than me, way more canceled than me.

01:03:28.600 and they're like yeah this i think this guy would be a good addition to the team

01:03:32.200 so i came over there and yeah i was there about for for a couple weeks you've managed especially

01:03:39.300 your age because you're still relatively young i would say but you're getting yourself into

01:03:44.440 these circles and spending time with a lot of guys who uh you know they're pretty big

01:03:49.480 in the the red pill space on social media like you would you did a podcast the other day with

01:03:55.360 you were there with tam you were there with um fresh and fit uh sterling cooper justin waller

01:04:03.940 yeah like that how do you feel when you're in that environment knowing that these guys are like

01:04:10.160 10 years older than you or more does it feel intimidating of course it does like in a lot

01:04:17.820 of those settings i i like that pressure of being around a lot of made men and then all of them i

01:04:23.540 know they're thinking this this dork this social media dork and i'm just there that's how you find

01:04:29.140 the best in yourself like same thing with yay like he said i'm talking to him on the phone

01:04:32.740 and i made the mistake of saying like he asked me like what i don't know if i've said what i'll say

01:04:39.320 he asked me like what role i wanted to play in the campaign i'm like i could be like the creative

01:04:43.320 director and he went creative director like he started comparing me to virgil and like he's just

01:04:48.420 like who do who do you think like basically like who do who are you yeah who are you you're just

01:04:51.800 this social media guy you're this clout dude you're gonna be me my creator he started making

01:04:56.820 fun of my hoodie and stuff like that just ruthless and i'm just there i was in the airport waiting

01:05:01.600 for the plane and he was like being so brutally honest and roasting me so hard i was standing up

01:05:07.780 this guy's my idol like legend the reason i dropped out of school and he's just just like my

01:05:13.160 my hoodie you came in with a cream hoodie and i just i'm standing at the airport i just i just

01:05:19.040 have to sit down like on the floor and i'm like oh god uh but i like that pressure because you need

01:05:25.580 that you definitely do need that and i think i could be the example of that i think we've

01:05:30.520 accurately or you've acted accurately called um explained it on this podcast me getting involved

01:05:36.500 in drama that's unnecessary the back and forth the attention seeking the validation seeking online

01:05:42.760 being around these made men helps bring the best out of you and sees a world that's not consumed

01:05:48.780 by social media which has been my world so you figure out what you've done wrong and you figure

01:05:54.780 out how to conduct yourself and how real men operate and i think that i could be that liaison

01:05:59.980 for that the next generation for the for the next generation of guys who want to be that too because

01:06:04.800 they really do need this message right now i'm sure you have so many of these these young guys

01:06:09.700 that like really resonate with this message because there's a a giant um it's it's it's

01:06:15.400 absent on social media well i think in an ideal world these boys should be getting these lessons

01:06:24.880 taught to them by their father but there's a lot of i would argue incompetent fathers or

01:06:30.480 dads that just don't know better like my my dad like i couldn't have asked for a better dad like

01:06:36.500 nicest guy ever brought me up proper but there was a lot of lessons which he didn't pass down

01:06:43.340 to me but that's because i don't think he knew it himself and obviously he grew up in a completely

01:06:46.780 different time period to me there was no social media in his day and age now there is and these

01:06:52.340 young individuals and boys aren't prepared to enter the dating scene in this new world like

01:06:58.880 it's complicated it's messed up and if you're just a nobody on social media with like no status no

01:07:03.760 money like you're really gonna have a hard time trying to get a date with a hot girl because

01:07:08.580 there out there dating the guys that are 20 years older than them who've made it and got money and

01:07:14.340 status so it's difficult for sure yeah and they don't know how to explain that for these guys look

01:07:19.620 it's it's i was telling you before the podcast started like i've been on a lot of dates since

01:07:24.220 i've been in dubai and a lot of them are like brutal and like people will be like what because

01:07:28.320 if you like think objectively i'm famous um have a lot of money and you know young i'm in dubai all

01:07:37.080 this stuff objectively i'm not in the same bracket as a lot of guys and it still sucks and it's still

01:07:43.600 like i have to deal with feminists i still have to deal with women that you know if if it's if it

01:07:49.400 still sucks like at this level then man it's got to be brutal for the average guy and they don't

01:07:54.860 know how to explain that so that this is why this type of content is is extremely necessary yeah i

01:08:01.520 feel like the stuff which i'm making now i'm making it for my younger self the younger self

01:08:06.460 who didn't really know what the hell he was doing and ideally you know i can help these people to

01:08:11.380 just not make the mistakes which i made or you know have them go through those tough periods

01:08:17.520 which i had so i think i'm hopefully i'm doing a good job i'm curious to know when you're dating

01:08:24.280 now do you are you dating girls that already know who you are or are you dating women that

01:08:31.800 they have no idea who you are even if they most of the time they don't know but then they'll look

01:08:38.140 me up on on instagram or like i've noticed a lot of girls will do screening like they'll be like

01:08:42.160 who's this guy in the last like one of their male friends or something like that or like another guy

01:08:46.460 male friends i know terrible but they will they'll try to be like oh he's like this guy and like

01:08:52.340 they'll like look up some tiktoks or something like that and then they'll come to the date and

01:08:55.440 they'll pretend like they'll act as if it's normal but then throughout the conversation like oh a lot

01:09:00.760 of them have no idea a lot of them i've been on two dates since i came here and a lot of had no

01:09:05.280 idea what i did and but i i've noticed that it doesn't really make that much of a difference

01:09:11.220 like people talk a lot about how girls are clout chasers and stuff like that i haven't noticed that

01:09:16.040 making that big of uh an impact on dating it really mostly is about character that's what

01:09:22.260 carries it i i haven't of course there's some girls that i date that know me from the content

01:09:28.560 and then you get to skip a lot of the shit tests.

01:09:30.480 If they like what you do, then it's easier.

01:09:34.440 But I was talking about this last night.

01:09:37.580 I like going through the shit tests

01:09:40.620 to strengthen my ability to navigate female nature.

01:09:44.680 I like the combativeness and girls

01:09:48.140 that are not easy to tame in a sense

01:09:51.520 because then you figure out more about yourself

01:09:54.860 and I'm trying to develop my frame

01:09:57.320 and how to navigate this more and understand women better understand myself better i see

01:10:02.260 these dates a lot of the time as as mental chess it could be interesting like i've had my fair

01:10:08.900 share dates and it's i think it's been amazing for me not only to build up my my confidence but

01:10:14.740 to increase my experience with women uh knowing what i want in a woman and i was having a

01:10:22.700 conversation with a girl yesterday and she was saying that uh body count matters and a guy with

01:10:28.980 a high body count is a bad thing and i was arguing with her well maybe there are certain aspects of

01:10:34.380 it that are bad but i think ultimately my experience with women has brought a whole

01:10:39.780 load of advantages from being with more than with less did she concede she no she was backing up a

01:10:48.160 point what was her point like the guys he belongs to everybody he shares himself well i think that

01:10:53.720 there was one argument she was making that if if a man who has high body count he is so used to

01:10:59.020 just constantly having sex with different women that he will find it harder to settle down with

01:11:03.600 just one why is that a bad thing because there's a lot of women who won't accept that in a

01:11:11.080 relationship they don't there are some women who will tolerate being in a relationship but a top

01:11:15.800 one cent ten cent guy who may sleep around but realistically you speak to most women

01:11:22.500 they're not gonna be happy with that they just don't want to know yeah they can't handle the

01:11:26.920 truth they want to live in ignorance is bliss they want to live in a delusional reality that's

01:11:32.500 provided that's provided to them by a man who's capable enough i mean like she'll have this debate

01:11:37.460 but is she really got is that really the case for what she's looking for i don't think so

01:11:42.000 body count for a man. It's not really, it's not a deciding factor at all for 99% of women. And if

01:11:48.040 it does, I've had these debates a lot of the time. They don't have any valid reason because it

01:11:52.440 doesn't devalue you as a man at all. It gives you more experience. It makes you more competent,

01:11:57.120 makes you understand women better. But it's the complete opposite for women. The more

01:12:01.300 bodies they have, the more men that they sleep with, it just, the pair bonding is real and

01:12:07.680 their standards get all messed up. They don't know how to submit to a man anymore.

01:12:12.840 It makes them less competent of a partner. Do you find that dating has been a distraction for you

01:12:21.100 from you fulfilling your purpose, being on your grind, getting work done?

01:12:26.820 See, this is the dichotomy because I tell you, I get my inspiration for what I talk about on stream

01:12:33.300 a lot from real life experience. So I genuinely think that if my life didn't have ups and downs

01:12:39.960 and I didn't have a lot of the back and forth or the dialogue or people like making fun of

01:12:44.600 my past, stuff like that, then if it was too easy, then there would be no motivation.

01:12:49.380 A lot of my motivation comes from like the cancellation just was enough motivation.

01:12:54.300 I needed to triple down on that. So if I didn't have, if I had a life that was completely easy,

01:13:00.100 i don't i don't even know if i would make content i don't think i would i think i would

01:13:04.300 that's where i get all of the drive is is the fight so you're on your social media you're

01:13:13.060 encouraging and inspiring a lot of the guys to go to the gym yeah what's your gym routine like

01:13:18.280 are you staying on top of your health fitness yeah i've been going to the gym consistently for

01:13:23.280 about three months but before that i used to go to the gym a lot when i was in high school

01:13:27.920 uh i was benching dead lifting squatting a lot i gained a good bit of size and then i had this

01:13:33.520 big injury i had surgery stuff like that and i was out for i lost like 30 pounds i lost all those

01:13:38.160 gains um i was in and out of the gym for a long time but yeah the past several months i've been

01:13:43.340 i've been really consistent with it do you think you can keep up with your consistency

01:13:46.360 i have to i have to because i've put uh i have a lot of i have a you're a role model now people

01:13:54.380 looking up to you can't slack off i can't and if i slack off now then it then it's over and there's

01:13:59.180 just there's the motivation there's so many people waiting to to say you're a failure and i can't let

01:14:05.540 them win i'm not because that's where the the fight comes into play i want to to get jacked

01:14:10.740 and i want to have that the giant chest and all that stuff so that all the people that doubted

01:14:15.180 all that can look at that and just they'll have nothing nothing else to talk about and i think

01:14:19.380 that's going to be a big inspiration for the people that watch my videos to be like if he did it

01:14:23.040 then I could do it too. Do you have any struggles with keeping up with the consistency at the

01:14:29.240 moment? No. So there's no problem? I've been in Dubai, like Myron and I have been going to the

01:14:34.220 gym every day. I've been hitting the pads too, started boxing again. I have no problem being

01:14:41.220 consistent with it. When you start going to the gym and you get in a routine of it, it becomes

01:14:45.940 as normal as brushing your teeth. It's like, if you don't do it, there's something off.

01:14:49.580 you know like when someone touches your hand in a weird way and you feel it and until you wash your

01:14:54.480 hands and get it off it's the same thing with like there's an itch if you don't if i don't go to the

01:14:58.960 gym you know more than me about this stuff but if i don't do it it's like my day isn't complete you

01:15:03.840 just you just have to you want to get to the point where you're making it a habit and it's actually

01:15:08.380 starts to feel weird if you're not going and i think the thing for me is i know what i can look

01:15:14.480 like because i've been there like i've prepped for a competition i know what my body is capable of

01:15:19.300 so for me to really slack off and either lose size or particularly it's more common for me if

01:15:23.980 i start to gain a bit of fat and i lose my definition i just think i'm being lazy like

01:15:29.440 i'm slacking off like there's no reason why i can't still maintain a decent physique and have

01:15:34.940 that relatively low percentage of body fat but i know it's the things which i'm eating or maybe

01:15:39.480 the cardio which i'm not doing which is resulting in me looking not my best and i always want as

01:15:46.180 much as possible to try and look my best otherwise look in the mirror and i'm disappointed

01:15:48.840 and naturally when you are looking good you feel good and it's just it gives you so much

01:15:56.080 confidence like if i go down to the pool and i'm like really content with the way i look like

01:16:00.600 you fucking feel good and also everybody's like looking like oh shit who's that yeah and it gives

01:16:07.180 you more respect like in meetings and stuff like that in business everything if you have the right

01:16:13.160 i'm trying to work on my posture too there's like every little detail about you it gets analyzed at

01:16:18.100 a certain level of business and networking people notice all of these things and if you're if you're

01:16:22.860 fat at that level people are just not going to respect you that happens to me like when somebody

01:16:26.580 tries to tell me like i've had a lot of fat people tell me to go to therapy and it's you you go to

01:16:31.660 the gym i don't tell me what imagine how disrespectful that would be like if i just

01:16:36.060 told go to the gym like a fat person because it's very clearly that what you need to do but people

01:16:41.120 talk about this thing about therapy all the time i get all the time people tell me go to therapy

01:16:44.760 um but it just imagine if you flip the script and you said that but yeah you need to do it in order

01:16:50.920 to just maintain yourself at the highest level not just fitness and not just for attention and

01:16:57.200 for confidence but also just for for competence and it takes you a hell of a lot of discipline

01:17:02.360 and it's it's not easy to get it is quite difficult so when people see that when women

01:17:08.620 see that when guys see that they're like fair play like he has he's putting in the work he has

01:17:14.680 discipline it shows a lot about your character you have women are attracted to self-discipline

01:17:18.860 for sure more than they're attracted to clout or anything like that yeah that's the most important

01:17:24.080 trait um i forgot to you asked that question earlier i didn't really get to answer you asked

01:17:30.060 like has dating been a distraction and i meant i was talking about the fight and because

01:17:36.280 date like those experiences of dating and everything like that it helps me

01:17:42.080 have things to talk about like going to the gym every single day it helps me like going through

01:17:47.320 something difficult in the gym like pushing that last rep it gives me something else to speak about

01:17:52.000 it gives me that because men need to conquer men need to overcome something in order to become a

01:17:58.460 better person and i i just would i would completely i would go bad back on that degenerate path if i

01:18:05.180 had nothing if i didn't go through anything yeah i think from what i've learned you just have to

01:18:14.300 make sure it doesn't take over you need to prioritize yourself your career your focus

01:18:20.900 yeah just make sure yes you need to allocate some time to dating women for sure but don't let it

01:18:26.680 don't probably take over everything else i know so many guys like even myself like i've made the

01:18:31.480 mistake before where you end up catching feelings you end up just investing way too much of your

01:18:36.700 own time and energy into this woman and then you start to notice oh like i'm not earning as much

01:18:43.660 money or at least with the progress in how much money i was making has come to a stall like

01:18:48.320 everything else just starts to either stall or start to decline and she's not going to help you

01:18:53.460 get out of that no in many cases i know so many guys get into relationships and they actually get

01:18:57.620 in worse shape yeah when i was in uh all my long-term relationships so when i get extremely

01:19:03.180 skinny because i didn't you get comfortable and you're getting attention from her and she's telling

01:19:06.580 you you're fine she wants to watch netflix she wants when a girl loves you she wants all of your

01:19:10.060 attention and so you prioritize laying down and watching a little like dorky netflix movie instead

01:19:14.740 of going to the gym it that it is detrimental it's difficult because i've experienced it before where

01:19:19.780 you you do want to spend time with them but the more time you spend with them you do you get lazy

01:19:25.260 you get soft and what i've found is even if i i could spend like a day or two days with a woman

01:19:32.400 it depends who she is obviously but i find a lot of the time like i build up this momentum

01:19:37.320 where like i'm getting shit done i'm in good routine my training nutrition being super

01:19:42.280 productive and then i stop spend the day with her or two days with her i don't really do anything

01:19:48.720 maybe it's good to have a little break from everything like a little break but then i find

01:19:53.580 it's so hard to get back into that flow state again so it's it's tricky i don't know if it's

01:19:59.000 the solution is to be with somebody who will almost cater and allow you to continue to be

01:20:06.340 in that flow state or whether you just pied them off completely for a period of time i don't know

01:20:12.840 if you've experienced this but i don't think women will actively try to keep you in that flow state

01:20:17.680 unless you teach her how unless you teach her like what you need to do in order to be in that state

01:20:22.360 they're not going to be there pushing you to be your best until you say like, well, I need you

01:20:28.700 to be cooking. I need you to not annoy me too much when I'm working. Don't bother me.

01:20:34.340 Like sometimes I just need to sit alone and be with my thoughts because I need to analyze.

01:20:38.960 She's not going to be there making you your best self. I haven't experienced that. I think that

01:20:44.980 that's an idealistic view of relationships, but you really need to create that for yourself.

01:20:48.720 i find it really like i can't i really struggle to get work done if i'm here and she's on the

01:20:54.700 sofa on her phone like just her being there is i can't zone into my work that's why i like to

01:21:00.980 live alone everyone's like why you know if i'm in a relationship like why not living with your

01:21:04.700 partner and i'm like honestly at this point in time it would be the worst thing for me it's such

01:21:10.660 a time distraction because you're there you're sitting on your laptop and then she's over there

01:21:13.560 she sits in your lap then all of a sudden you know you put the laptop over there three hours

01:21:18.600 go by and then you try to go again absolutely wiped out and then you're drained mentally like

01:21:22.980 let's watch them let's go out to eat and then the whole day was just for her uh just for one second

01:21:27.640 where she just she wanted your attention i don't know what it is about girls like especially when

01:21:31.240 you're working that's when they want to distract you the most like now you want to sit on my lap

01:21:36.500 like now i'm in the zone you need some attention that is the best way and also do you live with

01:21:42.460 other just just so i i i when i left home at 18 i was living with guys uh right up to the age of 26.

01:21:51.900 so there was like a house of six of us five of us and then it got down to like there was two other

01:21:58.380 people and then 2000s end of 2016 i moved to london and it was the first time i lived by myself

01:22:05.500 so it was a it was a weird experience because to begin with initially it was quite lonely because

01:22:10.540 I was so used to living with other people and I moved to a city which I didn't really I didn't

01:22:14.460 really know anybody there so it was weird making that adjustment but in terms of my career

01:22:21.580 that everything blew up because there was no distractions I knew what I needed to do I woke

01:22:27.180 up got it done and it was like that every single day what I should have done in hindsight was made

01:22:32.300 more effort to actually go out and socialize but I kind of locked myself away because I mean I'm

01:22:37.420 I'm naturally more of an introverted person

01:22:39.240 who actually likes to be by himself,

01:22:40.540 which I figured out.

01:22:43.440 There's pros of being by yourself,

01:22:45.240 but if you do it too much,

01:22:46.320 then you start to feel weird.

01:22:48.920 Like you need human contact, interaction.

01:22:51.800 Do you get that like doom state?

01:22:53.460 What is this?

01:22:54.000 Like I noticed when I operate well by myself too,

01:22:58.380 I get the most work done,

01:22:59.660 but I noticed that after a while,

01:23:00.840 then it becomes like,

01:23:02.240 I start to get more existential.

01:23:04.180 Like what is,

01:23:04.540 I get like taxi driver, Robert De Niro.

01:23:06.300 like what is this really about what is this for yeah i start thinking like why am i doing this

01:23:11.940 there's no when i don't have that support system it becomes sometimes i feel really pointless yeah

01:23:17.240 and i think that's why it's what i've really done and this is only just been for the past year i've

01:23:22.540 been super selective with who i'm spending my time with and it's crazy to see the transformation in

01:23:27.420 myself just from you know either going for dinner or uh going to a beach club or whatever it might

01:23:33.340 be with these people who are super driven super knowledgeable and just experienced in like other

01:23:39.640 areas of life which i don't have that much experience in and it's been like life-changing

01:23:43.300 so i encourage people who if those people are spending time with the wrong people switch up

01:23:51.040 who's spending the time with and if you are spending a lot of time by yourself then try

01:23:54.820 and consciously make an effort to spend more time with these people like you are you know you're

01:24:00.140 spending a lot of time with these guys in their 30s which without a doubt i can already see the

01:24:03.380 transformation in you like you are behaving more like them and i think if you didn't have those

01:24:10.200 figures i wouldn't you know you would more degenerate what direction would you go in right

01:24:14.300 especially if you you're only 24 so imagine spending time with other 24 year olds like

01:24:18.660 you just get pulled into theirs i notice how different the conversations are

01:24:22.940 i like when i'm speaking to like i've been around a lot a lot of high level people since i've been

01:24:27.780 in Dubai. And just the way that the conversations are conducted, everybody waits for their turn to

01:24:33.300 speak. Nobody interrupts. There's always a point to your sentence. When you're around a bunch of

01:24:37.540 24-year-olds, you're talking like in memes, people are talking over each other. There's not really

01:24:43.020 much of a direction. There's a less of a sense of respect. There's a lot of things that guys

01:24:49.120 don't understand if you're around a lot of those people. And the biggest shift to get to that point

01:24:53.640 where I'm thinking the way you described

01:24:56.020 was viewing relationships as transactional,

01:25:00.880 which holds you back at first

01:25:03.740 because you're like, so it's not genuine.

01:25:06.340 But when you realize that time is a commodity

01:25:08.600 and at a certain level,

01:25:10.160 all the time you spent

01:25:11.300 is essentially like money being spent.

01:25:14.640 So if your relationships aren't transactional,

01:25:18.060 then you're essentially wasting your time

01:25:20.280 and you're upholding a lot of relationships

01:25:22.360 with people just for the fact that you have a history

01:25:25.880 or you knew them for a long time.

01:25:27.940 You're upholding them for the wrong reasons.

01:25:30.560 Every conversation you have, all the time you spend,

01:25:33.700 should be to improve.

01:25:36.240 And if not, you're going to fall behind.

01:25:38.560 Yeah.

01:25:38.880 If I've noticed, if I'm spending time with the wrong people,

01:25:41.060 I start to get frustrated.

01:25:43.100 A little bit with myself, but even with them.

01:25:45.760 And that's usually a sign where it's like, okay.

01:25:47.540 You get annoyed.

01:25:48.800 They're around.

01:25:49.600 I'm like, this fucking conversation is so stupid.

01:25:51.980 Yeah.

01:25:52.360 so it's that's it has nothing sometimes it shows in the conversation like i get kind of like

01:25:58.920 annoyed with the person but it's not really their fault they're not a bad person just this

01:26:02.680 conversation there's no point you're not changing i'm not changing we're just here having the same

01:26:07.160 conversation that we had six years ago and i get i do get frustrated very quickly with that do you

01:26:11.860 have many friends your age yeah yes yeah yeah but i was most of the people that i spend the most

01:26:18.420 time with an hour are much older than me and there there's i noticed two things about that

01:26:23.680 is that people that are a lot older than you they like having their ego stroked for giving you

01:26:29.480 advice i'm sure you've noticed that they like to be i was talking to somebody the other night

01:26:33.540 and i asked him advice for a couple things and then he went keep going keep going and i'm like

01:26:39.340 i don't have nothing and then i'm like just coming up with stuff because he's like this is how you do

01:26:43.120 it because i know and it's just the stuff he's saying was really generic normal stuff but i'm

01:26:47.820 nodding my head like yeah that's that was interesting and and then afterwards uh i was

01:26:51.520 told by another person in the conversation like you you played that well you played that like

01:26:54.860 chess because you realize like people at a certain level they like to feel like they they're the big

01:26:59.720 guy they've done a lot of things and also that they're passing on knowledge to the next generation

01:27:03.140 so it's it is a chess move but um but also that there's a lot you can learn from from these people

01:27:09.100 too so and you can be humbling as well to them they they're in this like i'm a respected man

01:27:14.820 all the time and then i come in like you're like dork like just make fun of their clothes uh gen z

01:27:19.160 humor roasting stuff like that it makes it brings it all it evens out the the professional autism

01:27:27.020 so before i wrap this up over the past 10 years what would you say is the biggest lesson you've

01:27:33.280 it the biggest lesson i learned in 10 years is that the woke mind is is a virus it is a disease

01:27:46.380 that infects you i think it's more detrimental than than anything else i think you can lump in

01:27:51.540 all the mental health crisis things that people talk about like adhd depression anxiety ptsd ocd

01:27:59.420 all the stuff that people claim is like their personality traits i think you could attribute

01:28:02.660 that to the woke mind virus, classifying yourself based off of your race or about things that

01:28:07.540 you didn't do anything. You didn't achieve these things, but you talk about them because

01:28:14.280 it gives you validation without doing anything. And that's one of the most detrimental things

01:28:19.740 to people in the West. They've replaced religion. They replaced God with the woke mind virus.

01:28:25.660 And it brings you down. And it was specifically designed to keep you poor and to keep you at the

01:28:31.380 bottom and to not challenge the status quo to keep you controlled so that people do enjoy life

01:28:36.520 without that. And a belief system that's completely anti that is the best way to move forward. And if

01:28:42.560 you spend your time too much on social media and seeking the wrong things and going down that path,

01:28:48.240 it will consume you. So resist the woke mind. Any regrets? No. I think all of it gives you

01:28:57.180 experience all of it makes you who you are i don't live with that sort of mindset i think all

01:29:02.740 everything happens for a reason and if it happened it was supposed to happen and it was a

01:29:06.720 a conscious decision yeah i can see you you're learning from the mistakes and i'm actually

01:29:13.460 really curious to see what the older sneaker is going to be like like i'm trying to picture you

01:29:18.280 30 years old in six years time that's that's going to be something pretty special i think

01:29:24.900 what advice would you give to your 24 year old self

01:29:29.380 i guess like you're doing now just spend more time with older guys who are extremely successful

01:29:36.180 switched on and uh going places i just did not have that and i think even the majority of my

01:29:42.500 20s i didn't have it at all and that definitely slowed down my rate of progress and development

01:29:49.220 as a man and i didn't i think i i spent a lot of time getting really into the science of building

01:29:56.100 muscle losing body fat but that was it like i didn't really once i felt like i'd mastered that

01:30:01.540 craft i kind of sat back a little bit when really i should have been continuously learning always

01:30:08.420 learning looking to develop new skills which i didn't really do and i think i realized because

01:30:14.420 i didn't do that i was getting to a point where i felt like i didn't have anything else to say

01:30:19.780 i had nothing new to bring to the table because i hadn't learned any other skills

01:30:25.300 so that would be my advice how would younger people watching this how would they go find

01:30:29.860 those people to to be around and speak to and learn from it's a great question i would so if

01:30:35.300 you are by yourself i think one thing that you can do is just constantly be listening to podcasts

01:30:41.460 these productive uh self-help podcasts because you it's almost like you you you're there with

01:30:49.080 them you're always learning something you're not only learning from their experiences but

01:30:54.080 the knowledge which they're sharing so do that as much as you can i mean even if you could go through

01:30:59.680 one or two podcasts a day read some books obviously you don't want to take up too much

01:31:04.580 for your time but when it comes to actually meeting these people in person

01:31:07.400 i don't know that's a good question because like i'm at a point now where i've built

01:31:12.840 and established myself online so it's easy for me to reach out just walk into those scenarios

01:31:18.640 i'm like hey let's meet up and they're like yeah okay so i would say in a sense you kind of

01:31:23.420 you have to develop your online presence a little bit so that you know without a doubt the the more

01:31:29.460 following that you have the more doors that's going to open transactional the people those

01:31:33.420 people want to be around me because i have a large audience and even now like if people approach me

01:31:37.800 and they they are literally like a nobody then it's a waste of your time yeah and unfortunately

01:31:43.280 that's like the sad world that we live in but it doesn't just have to be about cloud a lot of it

01:31:47.000 could be adding value like i mean if they are like extremely gifted and knowledgeable then for sure

01:31:52.900 i would want to sit down and speak to them but it's it's it doesn't get my attention as much as

01:31:58.920 somebody who already has a big presence and a good reputation so you just have to work on yourself

01:32:06.240 maybe try if you can like maybe there's like these masterminds or uh meetups which people have in

01:32:14.300 specific industries i'm sure they do exist the problem with a lot of masterminds is they cost

01:32:18.100 money so people don't have them if you do have the money then get yourself involved because getting

01:32:23.140 doing these masterminds you're going to meet other people who have money and you're going to

01:32:27.340 you know, expand your, your network drastically.

01:32:29.520 So investing into yourself and these courses and mentors can, uh, definitely help, but

01:32:37.400 you need the money to do that in the first place.

01:32:38.980 So sort yourself out and start making money.

01:32:42.080 That's the right advice.

01:32:43.800 I mean, the creativity kit is $50 a month.

01:32:46.180 That's mine.

01:32:46.660 And you could speak to me directly.

01:32:48.200 I think that that's a pretty low price point in order to ask me a question and, uh, the

01:32:53.100 seven millionaire professors that I have in there.

01:32:55.180 Nice, man.

01:32:56.000 That was a good conversation.

01:32:56.960 I enjoyed that

01:32:57.800 Thanks a lot

01:32:58.860 Always bro
