Or genuinely a lot of people are just going to be okay with that life?
00:00:10.920
I don't think everyone's going to be okay with that life
00:00:12.860
because I believe if you had a magical time machine
00:00:16.600
and you were to show a guy who was complacent, chilling,
00:00:29.380
I have to do something. I have to wake up. So if you're watching this podcast, this is that time
00:00:34.300
machine right now. Stand yourself in front of the mirror if you are that person. Imagine yourself
00:00:38.500
30 years older. Imagine yourself fat, out of shape, bags under your eyes, wrinkles on your skin,
00:00:43.460
gray hair. Imagine that man exactly where you are today. And if you don't like it, do something to
00:00:48.980
change it because it's complacency that damages people. And that's a mix of brainwashing and
00:00:53.660
programming and your personality. It's a mix of lots of things. But I think growing up really
00:00:59.000
really impoverished and looking around at the other adults, you know, who are still in. I was
00:01:03.280
while I was 16, 17 years old working at McDonald's, I was working with people who were in their 40s
00:01:07.680
and 50s doing exactly the same job as me. And I thought, whoa, this is fucked. I'm going to have
00:01:12.840
to do something. Why did that click in your head? That clicked in my head really early too. And that
00:01:18.880
was always my biggest fear was being complacent and not having a life of abundance and not doing
00:01:23.180
what I wanted to do. Why do you think most people don't make that realization?
00:01:34.840
I remember once I was watching a YouTube video.
00:01:39.080
I can't even remember what the debate was about.
00:01:41.480
And I said, I was maybe 19 years old at the time.
00:01:55.800
Tristan, what the fuck do you care who wins this debate?
00:01:59.000
turn it off and i was like you know what that's a very good point we're broke what the fuck do i
00:02:05.360
care about these two people debating xyz i don't even remember what they were talking about to
00:02:08.780
this day because i turned it off because he's right we were broke andrew was a big inspiration
00:02:13.060
to me as well because he was a lot more as as unhappy as i was with our current financial
00:02:17.960
situation he was a lot more unhappy and it may just be that he was a year and a half older than
00:02:23.320
me because i found myself when i reached the the marks in age that he was a year and a half later
00:02:28.820
down the line i find myself self-thinking and and speaking in exactly the same he way he was
00:02:33.940
but he was correct why the fuck was i watching that debate you know at least watching content
00:02:38.520
like you and content like me is going to wake people up and encourage them to make positive
00:02:41.740
changes in their life that's the kind of content you should be consuming but if you're watching a
00:02:45.740
debate on i don't know the the war in ukraine or you know the the the england leaving the european
00:02:51.600
union or even if you're watching i'll go as far as saying even if you're watching an american
00:02:55.380
presidential debate and these two candidates are arguing and you're flipping burgers bro
00:02:59.920
you're going to be flipping burgers whoever fucking wins turn it off do something else
00:03:04.780
how did you not get upset about hearing that because i've said similar things to my family
00:03:10.900
members like if we get into a pointless argument it's like well you're broke you're not successful
00:03:15.920
and it hurts their feelings and it i mean even i said something hurtful to my to my dad when i had
00:03:22.460
my first six figure i'm going to be completely transparent even though i said i'm my first six
00:03:26.520
figure month and i'm like i just made more in a month than you make in a year and when you say
00:03:31.540
stuff like that it hurts a lot of people's feelings rather than inspires them when you
00:03:36.140
heard andrew say you're broke why do you think that you were able to separate your feelings
00:03:40.500
where most people are like don't why would you say that well i i've never been an emotionally
00:03:45.380
led person i've always been a factual objective um objectively factual person so if someone
00:03:53.080
says to me for example i got a comment on one of my fucking photos on instagram recently saying
00:03:58.560
well bro your hair is receding and i'm like i'm 34 years old yeah my hair's i'm 34 like what
00:04:05.360
what am i gonna do say no it's not shut the fuck up like if someone calls me broke or someone says
00:04:09.960
something about me that's true fuck am i gonna say argue with them tell them that they're wrong
00:04:14.240
i'm happy to accept the truth of the universe and i think we should all be happy to accept the truth
00:04:18.360
of the universe and if you're not then you have work to do on yourself um perhaps there were
00:04:23.460
stages in my life where i was a little less i was a little more touchy about things like that
00:04:28.840
but i think with uh certainly with age and wisdom because you have to understand i didn't make my
00:04:34.280
first million till i was 28 i didn't have any real money in terms of being able to do what i
00:04:38.820
want and buy a nice car till i was 24 and a half like i was broke a lot longer than i've ever been
00:04:43.980
rich and um i just knew it i think it comes with age and experience there was certainly more i could
00:04:49.320
have done when i was 18 19 20 21 but i didn't have the the role models that young men have today i
00:04:55.400
didn't have the access to intelligent people that young men have today so i think today there's a
00:05:00.120
lot less of an excuse but if you find yourself if someone says something about you um let's use
00:05:04.760
fitness i had uh some surgery on my arm in january i'm getting back into shape now i'm looking i'm
00:05:12.040
looking good these days uh i'm gonna have some progress pictures coming soon because i've been
00:05:16.580
uh i'm gonna let people into a little secret me my brother have been working on a supplement line
00:05:21.700
but i myself have been um experimenting with this trying to get my my own fitness back into check
00:05:26.380
um when i after my surgery in january i'm walking around with no shirt in my house
00:05:30.660
my brother looked at me he said bro you look fucked you look fat as fuck and i was out of
00:05:35.180
shape for me i was still in better shape than the average person i looked in the mirror i was like
00:05:45.360
You know, especially if you have good friends around you,
00:05:48.260
let people encourage you by telling you the truth.
00:05:51.940
Young men will come to me with their business ideas
00:05:55.140
That's the worst business idea I've ever heard.
00:05:58.900
And now if you wish to pursue it after the fact,
00:06:01.340
that's fine because that's your own personal choice.
00:06:07.220
and try to take people's opinion and people you trust and people you respect's opinion
00:06:11.280
into account that's the best advice i can give so if you're hanging around with a bunch of
00:06:16.100
fucking losers that's dangerous because if you put on 30 pounds by being a lazy fuck over the
00:06:23.360
next six months your friends aren't going to tell you you know you're going to read shit on the
00:06:27.640
internet cope like girls like dad bods and you're gonna be like oh well girls like dad bods what
00:06:33.480
you talking about girls on like dad balls you seemed the same amount do you consider yourself
00:06:40.060
happier before and after youtube because i think uh one of the differences between me and you is
00:06:44.900
that most of my satisfaction in life comes from the fact that i can inspire people and i can share
00:06:49.960
my art online and i could i can inspire people and you i get the satisfaction that an artist gets
00:06:56.220
from mostly my main channel not my streaming channel but you seem the same amount of happy
00:07:31.220
i've got my brother next to me you know i'm i'm living well i'm eating well i'm sleeping well i
00:07:35.580
have been doing for many many years the the contentment hasn't changed uh my level of wealth
00:07:40.680
has increased certainly uh over and it will do every year for the next 20 years till i decide
00:07:46.080
to just you know give up and enjoy myself and i've always been content my i think that it's added a
00:07:51.520
level of happiness because like you said there are things that i didn't experience before that
00:07:56.120
are now a big part of my life um you know just like i get the hate comments and the hit pieces
00:08:00.460
and the stupid videos the emails i get and the messages i get of people saying that i've inspired
00:08:04.540
them to to make a positive change you know and you do this you talk about me in this way that
00:08:09.140
nothing makes me happier than that so i feel like i was missing out beforehand because i had a lot
00:08:14.320
to teach the world and perhaps i mean i can call it selfishness almost i was too wrapped up in
00:08:19.760
living my wonderful life uh everything that's happening now i'm exactly as content as i was
00:08:25.280
before but believe me i am happier knowing that i have the power to help people yeah i saw the
00:08:29.720
the kids surround you on your boat in uh croatia when you docked and you see like a horde
00:08:34.400
of teenagers and young adults stand there what is that how does that affect you because before
00:08:41.120
you weren't really famous before you might have been known as an entrepreneur something like that
00:08:44.560
but how have you handled the fame um you know what in a very boring way you like you have to handle
00:08:52.680
it in a personal security kind of way etc but um the the actual fame it does get annoying being
00:08:58.420
stopped on the street all the time or having crowds form or they find out you're in a restaurant
00:09:01.440
etc but i try not to let it bother me because i understand that it's a because the fame isn't
00:09:10.360
necessarily good but i feel like it's a it's a price i have to pay to be a positive role model
00:09:14.780
in so many young men's lives and to inspire so many young men i feel like is a is a gift like i
00:09:20.440
said about me not wanting to run this fight to take on big tech and to build other platforms
00:09:24.380
etc maybe i was chosen for it but i just i can't look at it as a as a negative thing as much as it
00:09:31.340
may negatively affect my life sometimes i'm just a lot more careful i roll with more bodyguards i
00:09:35.820
keep my movements a lot more uh secretive etc but it's easy to handle what a bunch of people who
00:09:41.900
love me and admire me the people who hate me don't turn up in big mobs they just write shit
00:09:45.740
on the internet because they're scared of me so you know i've ever encountered a hater in real
00:09:49.680
life i almost never not one never not one not one ever and i don't think i ever will so what does
00:09:56.920
that say what do you say because who on earth is going to think i don't like those two giant strong
00:10:03.620
kickboxing brothers who roll with a team of security let me go and fuck with them in person
00:10:07.460
these people are cowards they're never going to think that not in a million years so what do you
00:10:13.820
think that says about the human psyche the fact that people exercise so much hate online but in
00:10:19.020
real life they probably wouldn't even look at you twice i don't even notice like dirty looks or
00:10:22.400
anything like that but the amount of hate i hear online is is a daily thing well it's a testament
00:10:27.880
to their own character it's a testament to their own character and that people will make brand new
00:10:31.840
profiles and uh you know with no followers and no following and no display pic just to write hateful
00:10:36.820
comments to you and it honestly makes me happy it honestly just builds me up to understand that
00:10:41.900
the number of hours put in per day to trying to bring me down are more hours than i could possibly
00:10:48.500
live in a day hundreds of hours sometimes per day are are taken from people who dislike me
00:10:54.040
and i'm just like good these people are wasting their lives giving me their energy i i feel
00:11:00.300
powered by it i feel fueled by it so it's motivation it's a sense of motivation like the
00:11:06.340
other day i didn't want to stream and then i saw uh three videos drop all an hour long edited up
00:11:12.180
and just like hating on me and it woke me up a little bit i was like whoa yeah and good
00:11:18.480
and good they're taking time out of their lives but i i would never do that and i don't think
00:11:22.820
that's a good way to behave i mean you could comment on people's videos you could comment
00:11:26.120
on people talking about you but i'd never just watch someone for what they're saying unless what
00:11:29.980
they were saying was genuinely no no i don't think i'd i'd ever watch someone who was saying
00:11:36.000
something stupid and then comment on it and make a hit piece on it because i don't want to give
00:11:40.640
those people my energy you have to understand that people with the right frame of mind are built up
00:11:44.980
by this so if any of my haters do see clips of this and do watch this please keep spending your
00:11:50.680
time thinking about me because i don't know your name i don't know your story i don't know your
00:11:54.220
problems but i'm living well i think it was floyd mayweather who said something like this he said
00:11:59.140
look if you want to talk shit about me or my boxing career or my trainers and my friends
00:12:02.980
don't worry about me because i'm living well worry about yourself i'm a billionaire i'm the i'm the
00:12:08.960
best boxer who ever lived don't worry about me it's all fine for me so yeah i like it i like it
00:12:15.360
i'm not gonna pretend i don't i am it's eye-opening hearing you when i asked the question how do you
00:12:20.520
handle the fame i was curious to if you enjoyed it or not but you only talked about it as if it
00:12:26.340
was a negative thing i'm seeing a lot of entrepreneurs and people like you want to get
00:12:31.080
into this game because they desire fame and it seems like you never desired that but i noticed
00:12:35.700
a lot of like crypto guys entrepreneurs e-commerce dudes they're kind of following your method and
00:12:41.180
they're now getting into the youtube space because they have all the riches they have a lot of money
00:12:45.380
but you guys talk a lot about you can't really like you can't make money and not become a dork
00:12:51.300
you're still a dork and so they want that level of respect and they want to be admired
00:12:55.480
why do you think that you didn't desire fame i i feel like i've always been proud of myself and
00:13:03.460
who i am i think a lot of people look for validation from other people and i i think that's
00:13:07.680
why i never really desired it it's a it's a consequence and it's one of the circumstances
00:13:12.060
that i now find myself in for everything that i've done everything my brother has done but you
00:13:16.540
know if you're really truly content and love yourself lots of people desire fame to make
00:13:21.460
the money but it's the guys chasing fame for the sake of fame say they already have money
00:13:26.560
they're they're unhappy about something i think perhaps you know i mean if you're a youtuber and
00:13:32.840
you make your money from youtube good chase the fame chase the numbers because now you're also
00:13:36.240
chasing your paycheck you're chasing you know what's going to what's going to put food on your
00:13:39.460
table what's going to get you through life but just for the sake of having all these people
00:13:45.380
following you around and commenting on you and and you know trying to take pictures of you in
00:13:49.080
the street it's not that great if i'm honest and uh because i'm so happy in and of myself and when
00:13:55.000
i'm sitting around with my friends whether it be at a five-star restaurant or like literally on
00:13:58.760
someone's kitchen kitchen floor drinking cheap cans of beer i'm so happy i don't give a fuck
00:14:02.720
who knows who i am so i i think you could tell a lot about somebody's uh station in life and how
00:14:08.460
how how uh proud they are of themselves and how happy they are of with themselves by how how hard
00:14:14.000
they chase fame do you think that what do you think people can do to stop being dorks what's
00:14:21.780
the best way to try to fix the dork the dorkum i think everybody knows already everybody knows
00:14:27.180
the answer a healthy body is a healthy mind get into shape you know uh try try try to try to look
00:14:34.600
your best try to um you know become more knowledgeable whether that be you know watching
00:14:40.400
youtube videos uh watching stuff that my brother or you put out just try to understand the world
00:14:45.120
better try to understand that you know you can't just walk through the world as a dork because
00:14:50.160
the things you desire don't come very freely to dorks i would like to think that every single
00:14:54.940
young man watching would love to have a beautiful woman they would wouldn't they beautiful women
00:14:59.440
beautiful women don't like dorks they really don't so look at the things you want from life
00:15:05.140
and look at who you are as a person and think how can i positively change myself to get the things
00:15:11.100
that i want from life and i think you're naturally going to come out of your dork state just from
00:15:16.240
doing that if you understand one percent how women think how high value men think i'm a high value
00:15:22.040
man and people message me all the time hey man i'd love to sit down and play a game of chess
00:15:25.800
with you i'd love to sit down and smoke a cigar with you don't send me that message without first
00:15:30.920
looking at who you are and thinking would tristan tate benefit or want to sit around with me and
00:15:38.440
play chess and smoke cigars what would i talk to tristan tate about and if the answer is i just
00:15:44.020
loved a fanboy on him then you're probably a fucking dork and you know do something about
00:15:48.080
yourself to change that that's what i've realized on from your impact on social media is that
00:15:55.680
inherently i've always known that and even before you it was like guys like dan bilzerian or like
00:15:59.840
the stereotypical high value man bitches in shape big houses big cars and everything that's what
00:16:05.500
everybody every man inherently wants that's what every like man is wanted at when we were like 12
00:16:10.680
and then the matrix beats it out of you slowly they make you cope and they make you say that
00:16:15.220
you want other things i'm okay with the dad bod i want to be monogamous i want these other things
00:16:18.920
i don't want that life and i've what separates me from a lot of the content creators i've realized
00:16:25.300
is that most people would rather not admit that and they would rather make justifications for why
00:16:30.140
they're at that point in their life and i and you see what happens because when you're a content
00:16:35.700
creator you don't get cool points for being a fan of somebody else you don't get to make a hit piece
00:16:41.480
I can't make a 57-minute edited video of you or Andrew because what would I say?
00:16:50.140
And it's because I think a lot of people, and you've probably seen it, they are – you don't get cool points for supporting someone else.
00:16:57.040
Everyone says every day like you're a dick rider.
00:17:00.060
you're and i'm i don't get bothered by that because i'm upgrading my life and i've realized
00:17:08.340
that the life that you're living is the ideal life for most men just most people are coping
00:17:12.820
and decide not to to want that and and and you have to understand that all these men are doing
00:17:18.300
the same thing themselves if we were to say if you were to start complimenting me in this chat
00:17:22.320
and please don't saying oh tristan i think you're the best and i think you're a cool guy i think you
00:17:26.000
live well i think you dress well i think that you've made a lot of money i think you're smart
00:17:28.720
and the people would type in the chat dick rider dick rider dick rider well what the fuck are you
00:17:34.200
watching us for you're watching me you're sitting at home watching me in sneeko talk
00:17:38.520
who the fuck are you to say shit like that like literally no one knows who you are on this stream
00:17:43.500
and you're sitting watching us and that would be i think a very low percentage of the people
00:17:47.000
watching but uh some people would be saying that but at the same time how do they know
00:17:51.240
if they aren't spending their own time being a fan of myself or you so it's a very strange mirror
00:17:57.680
that you need to kind of hold up to the viewers at home when they start saying stuff like that
00:18:01.440
happens a lot when my brother goes on twitch they're talking and they'll be like oh dick
00:18:05.300
rider they tell people or tell the streamers are dick riding and you're for giving me a compliment
00:18:09.340
i'm like well this stream is massive and a bunch of people are watching this because my brother's
00:18:13.200
on the fucking stream so what does that make you like it's the way it is it's much easier to hate
00:18:19.740
and yeah you get a lot more points for it yeah that's the nature of social media is a play
00:18:24.480
negativity is what people it really encourages a lot of negativity there's not a space for
00:18:31.740
positive speak it's it's immediately shot down well we are creating it i think because i now
00:18:38.140
with the way that i speak the way you speak and the way a lot of people who i've influenced uh
00:18:42.800
who have watched me and andrew speak um you know i have videos literally of guys at their school
00:18:48.260
15 year old boys playing that stupid theme tune that's associated with my brother opening doors
00:18:53.180
for women who walk by and letting the women into the classroom and i look at that i just think
00:18:57.300
you know what good i i like to create positivity and i like to put it out there and i like i like
00:19:03.460
to see you know young men become become better men and it's it's it's very cool and i think that
00:19:08.100
we are guys like us are hopefully and there's lots of good guys online lots of fitness trainers
00:19:13.780
lots of guys who preach a lot of good stuff but i think with our popularity that we currently have
00:19:17.920
all of us um us too as well i feel like we are now creating a positive dynamic and a positive
00:19:25.120
conversation and positive talking points this whole fucking podcast has been positive no one's
00:19:29.700
going to walk away from this having not learned something important about themselves or you know
00:19:35.100
or haven't taken away a lesson that they can apply to their lives and make their lives better
00:19:38.560
and yeah just just keep doing it you keep doing it on your own personal streams as well because
00:19:43.480
you know the world needs this just because everyone's doing one thing doesn't mean doing
00:19:47.580
the opposite is wrong sometimes that's the best thing to do and um all the content creators i would
00:19:53.280
say do exactly the same thing if you can and also get over to rumble i'm on rumble sneaker live i
00:20:00.160
want to start streaming there and how does that is the monetization system good that's the one
00:20:04.540
thing i'm a little bit worried about oh it's good it's good you know you'll you'll do well on rumble
