How I Built 5 Profitable Brands From One YouTube Channel | How I Built 5 Profitable Brands From One YouTube Channel | David From How to Beast DSH #964 DSH #964

Well, because busy, I didn't have like a camera team or anything.

I literally had my girlfriend at the time.

Well, this is my wife now, but she'd be like, she didn't know how to use a camera.

She'd be hiding behind a building, filming me approaching these girls.

Wait, so your girl was filming you approaching girls.

Yeah, man.

She's been...

That's a real one.

Yeah.

And that was only after like maybe six months of dating or something.

Yeah, now she saw the vision.

Damn, that's not many girls would do that for real.

My girl would be too jealous.

All right, guys.

First time filming in Austin.

How to hit up my guy here, How to Beast, David De Las Morena.

Thanks for coming on, man.

Thanks, man.

Welcome to Austin.

Yeah, we're glad we made it happen.

When I planned this trip, you were first on my list.

I appreciate that.

Yeah, you'd be running things out here.

You've been here back and forth for a while now, right?

Yeah, almost five, six years in Texas.

Yeah, it's a good spot.

Okay.

Your first time ever in Austin right now?

Pretty much.

I don't count like childhood trips because that's, you know, it's not business.

Yeah, I got you.

Yeah.

But, dude, I like it so far.

And it's a cool, it's a cool city.

It's obviously hot now in July.

You know the heat, though, in Vegas.

Yeah, I'm used to it.

No, this entrepreneur entrepreneur's strong out here.

Yeah, I think the less, especially since like the lockdown, a lot of people came here.

Yeah.

So they weren't strict on the mask stuff when that was going on.

I think it was like the first,

how was it a Vegas?

Because here was like maybe the first month when everyone wasn't really sure what was going to happen.

Vegas was actually bad, dude.

Casinos were dead.

You had to wear a mask everywhere.

I was surprised.

But Vegas is actually left, which I heard Austin is very left.

Is that true?

I think I hear everyone say Austin's very left, but based on the people I know here, maybe I just don't meet those people because I don't naturally rub shoulders with them.

But I haven't experienced it personally.

And during, yeah, during quarantine, it was like, it was like the first month when everyone was scared of it was lockdown.

Then after that, the masks and everything lifted.

But I think that was all at Texas.

Yeah.

Same in Vegas.

I've never met a Democrat and I've been there four years and everyone says it's left.

Yeah.

So I think it's just the circles we're running.

I didn't know Vegas.

I didn't know Vegas was considered right.

I knew Austin was, but I noticed a lot of like entrepreneurs are pretty right these days.

Yeah, I think.

I mean, I think obviously like monetary policy and taxes, if you're into entrepreneurship,

you buy into more of an idea that like we make money for like value we provide.

And then you get, I mean, also the political side of things as well.

I think the more educated I've been politically, the less I would just trust the government to spend my money in like a way that I feel is meaningful.

So I think a lot of entrepreneurs probably feel that way also.

Like I think I can better invest my money than the government would invest it.

I agree.

I grew up heavy left in Jersey, dude.

Well, I grew up in Boston, heavy left also.

Wow.

So what was that moment?

Was it like a video you watched or like a defining moment well i do feel part of it is that like the political window has just changed a bit you know because

some political okay i mean the financial the tax things i do think like as you start to to make money for yourself you start to question taxes a bit more um but i think also the windows changed in the sense that when i was growing up being kind of suspicious about the government and less trusting of the government and like against the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, let's say, that was left at the time.

And I feel like if anything,

censures, free speech seemed to be more important to the left.

And I like, I gravitated to those things.

But today, it seems like being more free speech is on the right now.

And being more like anti-interventionist, anti-foreign wars is also more on the right right now.

So I don't know if it's that I've changed that much.

To me, I feel like the political spectrum is flipped in a lot of ways.

I agree.

Dude, as a content creator, it's kind of nerve-wracking.

I got my second strike today for what?

On YouTube, for medical misinformation.

I mean, well, I could, can I ask you what it is, but you probably don't even want to repeat it now.

Well, it was a video, dude, I don't even know what we talked about, but it was a doctor, and I guess he might have mentioned the vaccine or something, but I'm not sure.

Well, I remember during, like, especially during the lockdown, I didn't even want to mention the word lockdown or quarantine.

Everyone made up these like weird slang words to talk about everything.

Like the little like, I would, like the information dot would come up under the video.

And then those videos always would get like less reach and less views.

Crazy.

So they incentivize you just to stay away from it kind of yeah i thought they were done with it though so yeah i got it this morning um so i'm on rumble now and we're getting good views there but it's scary dude do you get as many views on rumble as you do we get three times the views on rumble more on rumble yeah and i have a million on youtube but the thing is they shadow banned so much stuff i've spent a lot on youtube ads but rumble's just fire 50 to 100k a video really every video yeah okay i see i haven't i haven't gone to rumble you would crush it because you're all about the free speech stuff and all the right-wing guys are killing it on there damn okay yeah it's the only, you know, I like Fresh and Fit.

I know those guys, I know they've been doing the Rumble thing for a while.

And other than them, though, I don't know anyone.

I guess now you, but I don't know anyone else personally who's really pushing Rumble.

Man, Myron is ruthless, dude.

I was on his Twitter on the flight here.

Yeah.

Because of the whole drama did you see with that guy, Sketch?

I didn't, I'm not fully informed, but

so yeah, he's going at him, dude.

That guy's ruthless.

Myron's going at sketch.

Yeah.

Okay.

Because I guess sketch is pretending to be the R-word, like mentally challenged.

Okay.

And Brian Brian Myron's just like, no, he doesn't think that's a good influence on me.

He dies.

Yeah.

He's like, stop using that as like a cop-out.

Yeah.

Yeah.

He's not afraid to speak out on anyone, which I respect.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Myrman is

well-spoken, very strongly spoken, and he knows, he knows how to, he kind of does the tate thing a little bit, I think, where like he has a sound argument, but he starts with an inflammatory statement to like to hook you in.

And then if you like talk with him for a while, you're like, oh, that's what you're saying?

Oh, yeah, I mean, I agree with that.

Yeah, yeah, it's quite the formula.

Do you feel like you hold back a little bit?

I don't think I hold back.

Maybe I don't intentionally say very inflammatory things, maybe, though.

Okay.

I don't know.

Maybe I would say, I agree with them on something, but I would say

it maybe,

not that they don't say it directly.

You could argue they say it more directly, but I think I'd say it just like

without trying to put a skew on it.

It's trigger a bunch of people while I'm saying it.

Yeah, I feel that.

Yeah, that's not my main intention with my statements too.

Yeah, but I think it's a strategy for guys like like Myron and Tate.

And I think that they've mastered it.

I mean, Tate executed it flawlessly.

Yeah.

He just went on a podcast, the guy's first podcast on YouTube.

It got like a million views.

He had no subscribers.

Yeah.

There's no one else that could do that with no subscribers.

It's wild because he was making videos for so long.

I've known who he was.

He's been making videos for so long with like a small audience for like since the beginning of the man as fear days.

So you knew him before he blew up?

I don't know him personally.

I know a lot of friends.

We have a lot of friends in common, but I knew of him.

I've seen him uploading content content for a while yeah because you're tight with jay waller right yeah yeah yeah were you tight with him while he was kind of coming up with with tate uh no he reached out to me after after tate had blown up because he was visiting barbella spain when we were there and uh that's when we linked up and then me and him have stayed in touch since he's a solid dude man yeah he's uh he's because i'm so used to meeting people who've been doing the content creation as a main thing for some years and he is uh because he comes from this like construction background that being his main thing and now he's dipping his toes into, I may be more than dipping his toes at this point.

He's been doing the content for a while now.

Yeah.

But

it's kind of a breath of fresh air because

he's not.

I don't know.

He comes from a different world.

You know what I mean?

You don't mean many like construction business people who like now they're doing content.

No, I know what you mean because it's easy to form an opinion of someone based off the clips you see.

Yeah.

And that's something I try to be aware of as a podcast host because when I had Grant Cardone on, there's a lot of negative shit about that guy online.

Yeah.

See, I don't know him, never spoken to him.

I would, I probably even am a victim of that to the point.

I would say that I have not a very negative opinion of him, but like probably neutral to slightly negative, just based on like what I've heard people say.

Exactly.

But I've never spoken with him.

So I don't like, I'm not like, no, I don't like him.

I'm trying to be aware that that's probably been influenced.

100%.

And that's the thing with Tate, right?

Everyone talks shit about him, but as soon as people met him in person, not one person spoke negatively about him.

Yeah.

So.

It's like Trump as well.

It seems like that.

I don't know.

I mean, the hundredth that I'll ever meet Trump, I don't think.

You're right there, man.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I just met Trump Jr.

and I'm going to Mar-a Lago next month, actually, to film with some of his team.

Ah, with Trump Jr.

Not with him, but with his director of communications.

He runs his Instagram and stuff.

Interesting.

Yeah.

Man, you got Mark Cuban coming up too, you said?

Yeah, no, we're right there.

The cool thing about what we do is like we're one or two degrees away from anyone we want in the U.S.

in other countries, too.

It's wild.

It's wild, right?

When you think about it.

Yeah.

Like Elon Musk, Bezos, we're like one or two degrees away from those guys.

those are in the pipeline.

Uh, I haven't talked to anyone too.

Well, I guess, like, uh,

you're putting in the groundwork to create the opportunity, yeah.

When I made the show, I made a dream list.

I'm big on like people talk about manifestation, you got to take action too, but I'm big on that.

You know, who's the top three on your dream list?

I think it was Dana White, just because I'm in Vegas, he's like the go-to Vegas, Elon Musk, and Bezos.

Solid three, yeah, oh, and Trump.

Yeah, yeah,

but dude, it's it's been cool seeing you come up.

How long you been doing content?

I started, okay, I started uploading consistently on YouTube, like in a disciplined manner in 2017.

Like I say, 2017, January,

I was broke at the time, dropped like a thousand on a camera, Sony RX 100 Mark V.

And I was like, I'm going to do two videos per week and start taking this more professionally.

And that's like, I mean, that year we went from nothing to 100K and like it went from there.

Before that, I had dabbled, you know, I'd like published some blog posts, tried doing a couple of podcast episodes, uploaded a couple of YouTube videos, but it was, that was the year that I kind of locked in.

So since 2017, what's that, seven, going on eight years, I guess?

So 100k subs in the first year, though.

Yeah.

That's pretty unheard of.

It was

two.

So two videos a week has been my commitment since then.

I haven't missed it just because that's kind of been like the core habit that's led to the rest of everything.

Yeah.

I had a few videos because at the time I was doing, well, different types of videos, but I was living in Boston and I'd go and I'd approach girls on the street because I was just, that was very much

a big part like right now with self-improvement like the focus has changed but at that time was like cold approach pick up that was hot at the time yeah that was hot and I and I wasn't like I mean go watch steal videos but I was not smooth but I was showing it all I think a lot of guys were cherry picking their approaches I was showing like the awkward ones the weird ones the good ones and I started noticing like man each of these videos is like bringing in new subscribers so i just doubled down i hated filming them but uh well because basically i didn't have like a camera team or anything i literally had my my girlfriend at the time.

Well, it's my wife now, but she'd be like, she didn't know how to use a camera.

She'd be hiding behind a building filming me approaching these girls down.

Wait, so your girl was filming you approaching girls.

Yeah, man.

She's been a real one.

Yeah.

And that was only after like maybe six months of dating or something.

Yeah, now she saw the vision.

Damn, that's not many girls would do that for real.

My girl would be too jealous.

Yeah, well, I think she saw like.

She saw that it was all just to get the content for YouTube.

Yeah, I don't think she saw it from me.

So your goal was just to get their number, right?

That was like a hot thing at the time.

Yeah, exactly.

Like chat with them for one to two, three minutes, get the phone number.

And then those videos did well.

So I doubled down on those.

And yeah, it was from like, it was very slow from January to August, the first eight months, but then from August to December, it was just like, wow.

I remember those videos.

I used to watch those because I had massive confidence issues as a kid, dude.

Same.

That probably helped you a ton, right?

With your confidence.

Doing those approaches.

Yeah, yeah, because it's like your four, it's like exposure therapy, right?

You're just like forcing yourself to do the thing you're afraid of over and over and over.

And then that, I think that was like my gateway, drugging the self-improvement kind of, you know?

Yeah, now I help do with business because confidence and business go hand in hand.

Yeah, putting yourself out there, being okay to make a bad investment the same way to like talk to a girl doesn't work out.

Like it's all kind of like the same.

It's like risk.

I guess it's just building like a risk tolerance.

Yeah.

And not a lot of people make it that long on YouTube, I noticed.

Man, yeah.

No, I, I have, uh,

in my sphere, guys who do like self-improvement content for men, I could name them on one, probably in less than one hand, the guys who've been consistently uploading for that long yeah i can't even maybe andrew hails but he kind of stopped uploading i don't know he was one of those first guys doing those dating things or whatever yeah you have like alpha m you know aaron marino okay uh teaching men's fashion jose zuniga uh they've both been doing it for a minute yeah but i there's very few youtube's a hard game i mean super you know i feel like it's easier at the beginning too because like your content feels fresh by definition people are discovering you they're excited to see what you do i feel like it gets obviously, the hardest part is probably getting some initial momentum, but after you have the momentum, I feel like it's just each year is just infinitely harder to keep creating content that's like meaningful and keeps people engaged.

100%.

Without collaborations, I'd be screwed, dude.

If it was just me filming videos, I'd run out of ideas.

Yeah, yeah.

You know what I mean?

I do.

I do run out of ideas.

That's what I'm saying.

If it wasn't for collabs, you know, you're going to share this with your audience.

That's how I've been able to grow so quick.

Yeah, of course.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

The fact that you did it on your own, that's crazy, dude.

Well, yeah.

Well, with your girl, too, but well, she, she helped with those videos.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

What's hot for you right now?

What kind of videos?

It's funny.

Yeah, so we're talking about how like self-improvement goes in these waves.

And then like you had Tate.

And during the Tate era, these more.

And I'm not saying this is representative of his message, but these more videos that were a little bit more like antagonistic towards women, I would say last year were really hot.

red flags and women, you know, avoid girls to do this.

These girls are for the streets.

These girls aren't wifey material.

Like, what's their body count you know uh that was really on trend and then i think after tates

was arrested and went to prison and then came back and had a slightly more soft message i think it changed after that and now to me what seems to be trending is more of these like i don't know what i what i uh describe them as um

so it's it's not like Fuck women.

That's what it maybe was a year or two ago that was kind of on trend.

Yeah, like red pill.

But now I feel like it's

like, don't, don't worry about women.

Like, keep your head down.

Almost like this, like, sigma male type idea of like, you know, keep your head down, like grind in silence and get your money up.

I think that's, yeah.

I feel, yeah, the red pill stuff got extreme, but so did the feminist movement.

I mean, that's what led to the red pill movement, I think.

Right.

Yeah.

They kind of balanced each other out, right?

They were both so extreme.

Well,

I mean, I was talking about this with my girl the other day.

It's like, any girl who still identifies as a feminist in 2024 is like, y'all have all the legal same opportunities and rights as men.

And maybe there's some, maybe I'm not going to, you know, I'm not like, maybe there's some feminists out there who have like noble causes and are doing good things.

But it seems like most of them these days, it's more about putting men down and kind of trying to establish women above men.

And

yeah, that's

kind of a weird thing.

I was really upset with the soccer team, how they got equal pay.

Did you see that?

No.

The women's soccer team got equal pay as the team.

The women's U.S.

national soccer team.

They advocated for equal pay.

They went to court and everything and they won.

I mean, I don't know the viewership numbers, but I imagine they don't have the same brand deals and

views on TV when the games are on and don't generate the same revenue.

Because that's like the WNBA thing that always comes up.

It's tough.

It's like, yeah, I want to support women's sports.

Like, that's cool.

But the WNBA loses money every year.

It's subsidized by the men's, right?

Yeah, it loses tens of millions.

Yeah.

Yeah.

The men's league just supports it.

Yeah.

It's like if i had my main business and then i what i don't want to make it only gender-based but let's just say i have my main business my wife like she's like i just want to start a business like

uh

selling like hair scrunches and like the business is losing money but it's like i just i'll just keep like bank rolling it so she can do her thing that's kind of what the nba and w nba yeah but it's been a while now it's been like 20 years plus so it's a little concerning i will say kaitin clark right she's like she seems to be trending now and have some like

people seem to like watching her and seem to like her.

And I think that's a good thing.

Like, I would love it if it could stand on its own two feet, right?

Like, I don't, I'm not against the WNBA doing good.

And when I saw that, I was like, no, maybe,

maybe they can put together some

personalities people actually want to follow and actually want to watch.

Not because, like, oh, I feel bad and I should watch the WNBA, but like I actually want to.

That'd be cool.

She has given them hope.

I couldn't name one player before her.

I can't name one player aside from her before her.

She's the only one I can name.

Sucks.

It's because I used to be in just spams their clips on my Instagram feed too.

yeah do you watch sports heavy uh i used to man back in the day yeah no time anymore right yeah well it's kind of a conscious decision at one point like to just it's like well how much of my brain power is being eaten up by knowing the stats of like every nfl and nba player like i took so much pride in it man yeah but you'd name anyone in the nba i'd be like like basically this is what he's averaging per game this is where he went to university like this is this is what i think about i was obsessed with the nba i love nba stats yeah but yeah i had to take a step back too i used to know all their points per game

What team?

Because you grew up in Jersey.

You grew up in Jersey.

So yeah, I used to like the Nets when they were Jersey.

But when they went to Brooklyn, I was like, screw that.

The old Jason Kidd Nets.

Those were the days.

Was that Rip Hamilton?

Richard Jefferson.

Richard Jefferson.

I went on Richard's podcast.

That was like a dream come true for me.

Oh, really?

Yeah, him and Chandra.

Rashid Wallet.

No, he wasn't.

No, that was pissed at me.

They had Vince Carter.

Vince Carter.

Yeah.

He was nasty.

One of the best dunkers of all time, if not.

Yeah, elbow one, man.

The one he's hanging in the elbow.

You hoob out here?

Man, ever since I moved from Boston, I'd always play these men's leagues.

And I grew up playing AAU high school.

I didn't play in college, but since we moved down to Austin, I haven't played as much.

Damn, you're going to have to hoop up next time.

Yeah, I just won the Lifetime League in Vegas.

Let's hoop, Zoom, man.

It's one of the best cities.

I'd like to start hooping again.

I really enjoy it.

Yeah, bro.

You could throw me some lobs.

Oh, yeah.

You throw it down like that?

Yeah, well.

Can you do the elbow?

I can't do that.

I'm a two-hand white person.

That's better than I can do.

I will say, over quarantine, I challenged myself to dunk a basketball because I'd never been able to.

And I got up to being able to dunk like a small ball, and then I jacked my knee up.

But my vertical was like increased.

I bought a couple of these like vertical training programs.

I was going out to the courts every day.

That's impressive.

And I went from just like tapping the room with one hand to grabbing it with one hand to grabbing it with two hands to throwing down the small ball.

And I was like, I knew I'm about to get there, but then I just, I got some bad tendinitis in my right knee.

That's discipline, though.

You need some stem cells.

Oh, yeah, maybe that's what I need.

I need to get back out there.

It's hard to fix tendonitis, but I feel like that's the one thing that might be able to.

I see, I didn't even, yeah, I don't know.

I love ball, dude.

That's my time to talk shit.

That's my time to de-stress from work.

Yeah, yeah.

It's like one of my favorite things.

You play at the lifetime in Vegas?

Yeah, they got two leagues up there.

There's probably some good leagues out here, right?

In Austin?

If I find one, I'd love to join them.

Is there a lifetime out here or no?

There's a downtown lifetime, but there's not a gym in it.

I mean, there's not a basketball court in it.

Oh, that's a shame.

But there's a huge lifetime south of the city.

It's not that far from me.

I think they do a basketball court.

Okay,

I love it.

What are you working on right now?

What's like the main thing other than the videos?

So we have several brands we've built off of the audience.

So we got Edge Lifestyles, the clothing brands.

That has

done pretty well.

That's grown over the past few years.

Really?

It's hard, dude.

We started 2018 and it's grown year over year until this year.

But this year, a lot of clothing brands on like DTC, like online, like e-commerce clothing brands are down in sales.

So ours is not down as bad as other players in the game I know.

But

that was the first first physical product I started.

We do have a supplement brand right now that we're trying to scale up with a lot of paid ads.

It's like a greens plus test is like the main supplement we have.

It's like a daily greens powder with some like test, like natural test boosters in there.

And we're just trying to scale that with a bunch of paid ads.

It's build up like the customer base over time.

Nice.

Started a fitness app, Beastly app.

And then I've done some men's coaching as well.

So it's kind of a little ecosystem that we built around.

How are you able to scale up so many verticals?

like that's crazy i try and partner with with different people who can help manage like the day-to-day of each one so like i

the clothing brand maybe i do more of that myself because that was the first one not myself but me and my team i guess and then but like the supplement brand i partnered with a guy who owns a couple other big supplement brands for that nice and uh so just picking the right partners yeah exactly picking the right partners because otherwise it's impossible yeah that's where people mess up i think they try to do everything on their own yeah i mean i've made that mistake many times yeah same It's easy.

But then you get all anxious, and then you don't trust other people, and then everything starts to fall apart.

I hate that.

Yeah.

Because you try to like keep the equity, but it's worth giving some to good partners.

Yeah, I mean, maybe if you have like one thing and you really just want to stay focused on that one thing, then maybe you don't need to.

But if you want to do multiple things, I think you got to.

There's like Mr.

Beast.

He's like, well, he's like one of the kings of this.

I'm pretty sure with all of his businesses, he's not the main guy.

Yeah, he's done well with that.

I think Feastables will probably have a huge egg.

Same with Logan Paul at Prime.

Yeah, Prime is another good guy.

Who would have thought, man, a drink?

Yeah.

Like, when they first launched that, I'm not even going to lie.

I doubted it.

Yeah.

Like, I saw the comments and I fell into it.

People were hating on it, but now it's a billion-dollar company in a year.

Crazy.

A billion-dollar company?

Yeah, they did.

I think they're worth $2 billion already.

They did $200-something million dollars in revenue last year.

I mean, I see them in every store I go into.

It's crazy.

Yeah.

I don't drink that shit, but shout out to me.

I've never had a bottle.

Say it, man.

You probably are on.

I don't know how healthy I am, but I'm not.

I'm not healthy.

I don't even know.

It's subjective.

Like, I don't drink fake sugars and stuff.

So for me, I wouldn't consider it healthy.

Okay.

I eat really healthy like most of the day.

I'll be honest at night.

Because I eat pretty like, I don't technically, I guess technically I do do intermittent fasting, but I just don't eat much throughout the day because I'm just.

Locked in.

Yeah, I'm locked in.

I feel like I'm having a heavy meal.

I'm just really tired after and I can't focus.

So I kind of just have like light meals with high protein throughout the day.

And then at night, I'll eat a lot.

And then I like my dessert.

So I'm not going to say I I have the healthiest I've healthy like 90% of my diet the last 10% is like cookies and ice cream

but your teeth are hella white so you got to teach us how

these are veneers oh so they were not white before though uh i mean they weren't terrible but they weren't this white

i'm on the fence about veneers what was that decision for you like well i thought about i had a big gap and then there was uh

Which I which I had mixed feelings about.

I didn't, it was what it was.

It wasn't something I was like obsessed about.

But then I went to a cosmetic dentist here.

They reached out and like wanted to collab.

I went in and talked to them,

and they also identified that my back teeth were ground down a lot, like my back molars.

Like you were grinding, yeah.

And then there wasn't enough like space in the back of my mouth, so I think it was affecting my breathing and my sleeping.

So the veneers were because cosmetic, but they also corrected my bite, and now there's more space in the back of my mouth, and that has helped as well.

So it was like it was a dual decision, it wasn't 100% cosmetic.

Grinding is a sign of stress, though, right?

I don't know know if it was that I was grinding or that my teacher is naturally smaller in the back.

Oh.

But I do, they do.

I mean, I do have like the mouthpiece now that prevents the grinding.

Dude, I've been delaying my wisdom teeth extraction

for 10 years.

I was going to say.

How old are you, bro?

I'm 27.

You probably got yourself in high school, right?

Something like that, man.

I don't want it.

You just don't want to do it?

Dude, I don't.

You just don't like dental work?

It just scares me because mine are through the gum.

There's a word for it.

Okay.

So it's like, it's a more complicated thing.

Yeah.

Okay.

Yeah, I know, man so long ago.

I don't remember.

I don't remember.

Plus, I don't like being knocked out, like the gas.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I can't.

Yeah.

I don't know.

I should probably get over it, but I don't know.

What's the downside of keeping them in?

I don't even know.

It affects my other teeth.

They're growing in, and they grow until they touch.

So now I have fangs.

Yeah, you should probably.

You should probably just get them taken out.

Yeah.

Stop being stubborn.

I saw you interviewed Austin Dunham.

That dude's on my feed every single day.

Yeah, he's well, he's funny because he's someone who mentioned to me he was trying to upload a on rumble but was getting no views that's it pops into my head when we watch i got the guy there so put me in touch with him because my guy puts uh the videos on the homepage yeah okay

so he gets 50k every day can i get in touch with that guy too yeah yeah okay no i'll because i can just upload all my youtube videos to rumble i imagine they're looking for big creators and in exchange for bringing our users to their platform they'll put our videos on the home page okay so it automatically gets 50k a video yeah i would uh i would 100 yeah i got you yeah and then i can connect you with austin as well yeah he's a good guy he's in uh he's not in in Miami.

He's in Florida, though.

That's a fair trade right there.

Well, I'm going to...

Where in Florida is he?

I'd have to look in a map.

I don't know Florida.

I know you got like Miami before Lauderdale, but he's...

What's the one that, if this is Florida, Miami's over here?

What's the one on the opposite side on the south?

He's out of Orlando in Tampa.

He might be in Orlando.

There's a lot of major cities in Florida.

You're right.

He might be in Orlando.

Because I know whenever I'm there, I hit him up and he's like.

It's like a two-hour drive.

So sometimes he'll make the right drive over, sometimes not.

Do you think he's rolling?

Because his comments are hilarious, dude.

What uh, what do you mean?

Like, he's just so serious with his advice, but like, all the comments are like, this can't be legit.

Like, there's no way he believes this.

You know what I mean?

Can you think of one, one piece of obvious, do you know, like one specific thing he said?

I'm curious.

I wish I could, honestly, but I'll have to show you.

It's funny.

He could be trolling.

Oh, I, yeah, he could be trolling.

You'll have to ask him, though.

Yeah, I wonder if he plays into it because he gives good, good advice.

Yeah.

And his delivery is, I think, what

gets involved because he's so confident with the delivery.

Yeah, he's very smooth.

He's very smooth.

Yeah, he's a good guy.

He's a good guy.

I feel that.

Who else?

Did you interview Fresh and Fit, too?

Yeah.

Yeah.

I've been on their show a few times.

Because

that's quite the audience.

How did they react to you coming on there?

Well,

they're trying to think, because I went on there two or three times.

They dug in a lot, like why I chose to get married and things like that because that obviously fits into their content.

Oh, yeah.

Or Or anti-marriage, right?

Well,

I don't know.

I mean,

they're suspicious of it.

You know, I think their main thing is like,

well, did like you decided to get married.

You weren't like, was the decision you made or was it like, was it like

their

thing?

And I would also agree with it, is I think a lot of guys do just, oh, it's a girl who's willing to marry me.

Like, I guess I'll get married.

Yeah.

So their thing was more like, well, I mean, if you're coming at it from a place of, you know, having the decision to do it and doing it

out of once rather than out of scarcity or pressure that it's a different thing i see their argument from a statistical point of view well the divorce rate's quite high it's approaching 70 in major cities is it yeah yeah

well one thing i like to say and maybe this sounds like a cop-out is

of course not of course but it doesn't surprise me that like an average marriage would end in divorce But I try not to compare myself to average statistics, whether it's with fitness, money,

marriage.

i think if people are take are more intentional with their lives in general but that includes like

okay what's your relationship look like now because i know from friends family extended family people i meet most relationships like you i could probably ask you right now if you think about five relationships of people you know near you Most of them probably aren't that healthy, even not knowing everything about it, just seeing it from an external perspective.

Like, yeah, that's not, that's not like a great match.

And a lot of those people get married anyway.

So I think if guys are more intentional from from the beginning, right?

Of A, like putting building yourself into

someone who has a bit of leverage in a relationship.

Obviously, if you're, if you're fit, if you take care of your looks, if you take care of your money,

you are immediately have more value to a woman.

And some people will be like, ah, that's like shallow.

She should just like me for me.

But I mean, we like girls for different criteria as well, right?

So if you optimize those criteria, which luckily in life, getting like in shape, improving your looks and leveling up your money, even if marriage, women aside, it's still like a beneficial thing.

Yeah, helps so much.

And I've seen it firsthand.

I had no looks and no money in high school and college and got no girls.

And dude, I get messages daily now.

It's crazy.

I'm sure.

And I'm sure the rest of your life outside of your dating life is phenomenal too compared to then.

Yeah, my social circle, everything elevated from that.

Yeah, but now if you meet, well, do you have a girlfriend now?

Yeah, we're getting married next year.

Congratulations, man.

But even with that, I get messages daily.

Like, just from having those things.

Yeah.

No, but that's that's awesome.

But like, you've built built yourself into a guy.

Like, it's not likely that your girl is going to cheat on you or leave you.

She probably values you highly because you're someone who's like a catch, right?

Because of that,

it's less likely the marriage is going to go down a dark path, assuming, again, like you chose her for the right criteria as well.

I wonder if there is a correlation between getting cheated on and wealth level.

You think there is?

Ooh, that's interesting.

That'd be interesting, right?

Yeah.

Like the more finances a guy has,

the hypothesis might be that the less he he would be cheated on because the more comfort they could provide the girl right yeah yeah the more comfort they could provide the girl and the more the girl has to lose uh yeah i'd be curious to see divorce rates by income brackets well i know that from finance because some of the top reasons for divorce are one of them is finances and money issues i mean i see that a lot with my old friends yeah it looks sense that that's what causes like tension that's why this the i don't know you're bitching at the wife or she's bitching at you because when you bought something and yeah especially these days where everyone compares themselves because of social media.

Yeah, like when I buy a house, like all my friends are buying houses now, and then like when you get married, all your friends are getting married.

It's like everyone's just comparing themselves.

Yeah, well, I think probably a lot of guys get married too, just because all their friends are getting married.

Yeah, they almost feel pressure.

They say, Well, I'm with this girl, and she's down to get married, so let's do it.

All my friends are having kids right now.

I don't know if that's a coincidence or just some like mid-20s now.

So

my wife's pregnant now.

Oh, yeah, yeah, first one, the first one.

Yeah,

brother.

Thank you, man.

Big deal.

I want kids, too.

Yeah.

Yeah.

We got to get married and get married and kids are right around the corner.

Are you trying to like delay in a lot of time?

After the marriage, yeah, she's, she's somewhat religious, so I'll respect that.

Yeah.

Yeah.

But I'm digging 30 anyways because I want to live it up for the next couple of years.

30 is a good.

So I'm 34.

I don't, I'm at the age of like, I think it's a good time to have kids because I don't want to, you can, as a man, look, you can push it, right?

We can, our fertility doesn't really go away like a woman's, but I also don't want to be an older dad.

Like, I want to be able to like play and be physical with my kids even as they're getting older.

Not like an old man.

Like my kids are in high school and I'm like,

crippling around, man.

I've seen that.

You've seen that.

It's going to be an interesting time to raise kids, I think, for us.

Yeah, well, that's something we're starting to like, we were talking to some, my wife was talking to a neighbor who recently they moved their kids to a private school and they're, and they were telling her, like, hey, this private school, they just made a change in their rules where

kids are not able to be requested to be called by different pronouns.

Like they're just referred to as their biological pronoun.

Wow.

And even if the kid requests it, the teachers can't acknowledge it not only can the teachers not bring it up but they can't even like uh acknowledge they have to be no we're gonna call you by your biological pronoun and when they did this the interesting thing is no no one had a problem at all except like one or two teachers and they just i mean they they ended up getting fired or leaving wow like none of the parents had a problem with it was the teachers shout out to texas man that doesn't happen well it wasn't a public school i mean it was like a private school so we'll see so we were talking it's like well likely because it's right around the corner from our house too yeah unless things develop for the better over the next 10 years, likely that's probably where our kids would go, you know, private or homeschooled, no other choice, unless you can't afford it.

Yeah, it's funny because growing up, I would have thought, like, homeschool, like, that's weird, that's weird, bro.

Like, all those homeschool kids are weird, but

in this day and age, man, I think it would be private or homeschooled, unless I mean, we might see a counter reaction to everything that's been happening.

I think it's gone a bit too far, and more people are aware of that.

We'll see.

But even the nice public schools, like I grew up in a pretty rich town in Jersey, I mean, the stuff they teach is useless.

Yeah, they don't teach any personal finance.

They, they, it's, so I recently saw this study

because our schooling system is based on mainly memorization.

And there's another learning style.

Oh, man.

I wish I could, I wish I could pull this stat off my head.

Is it in Asia or something?

It's, it's a different style of education, but they were saying that of all the

either CEOs or millionaires in the world, like some, it's, it's a huge uh, mismatch.

So it's called Montessori schools.

And I think like if you look at the top, the biggest companies, I think it's Google, Amazon, Facebook, the top five U.S.

corporations, four of the five founders went to these Montessori schools.

I think they said the one that didn't sends his cool, sends his kids to this type of school.

And it's more like a,

this is more hands-on learning versus traditional learnings where it's just like memorization, like learn these facts, learn these historical facts, and like you have to repeat them back right on the test.

But it's a different system of learning that seems to be a lot more organic

so it'd be interesting to uh yeah i don't know i'd be interested to see in 10 years where we're or for you in 15 years when our kids are like going to school what the what the school systems are like yeah well right now it definitely doesn't work with multiple choice and sat

no and then like yeah man and autism rates and learning disability rates like through the roof i don't know dude i just got a brain scan i found out i have adhd and autism yeah yeah so that shit and now it's like multiplied i remember when i was in school like barely anyone had autism.

Yeah.

Now it's one in what, one in four or something crazy.

Yeah, I don't know.

Yeah, who knows what the, I want to get this one, this broadcast taken down.

Who knows if you get the next strike?

But if you hear like RFK Jr.

talk about it, for example, it seems like maybe there's some links to,

you know,

some of the things.

Yeah, let's not get a third strike.

Get my whole channel deleted.

Have you ever gotten a strike?

I've never gotten, I've gotten a lot of like videos age-restricted or demonetized.

I've never gotten a channel strike.

Probably.

Props to you for seven years and not getting a strike.

And your space, too?

Yeah, well, I don't know.

It's knock on wood, right?

Because all those, you're not Red Bill, but all those guys be getting strikes are deleted.

Like, Sneeko got fully banned.

You just talked to him, huh?

Yeah, he just came on.

And I'm surprised that that one didn't get striked because he's banned.

Yeah, and he does not hold back.

Oh, no.

Yeah, yeah.

Oh, man.

He does not hold back.

I was a little worried with that one.

Yeah.

But, dude, it's been cool.

Anything else you want to promote or close off with?

No, it was good.

It was good meeting you, man.

Good talk.

Excited to see if you get the Cuban interview, the Elon Musk interview, eventually, just a matter of one.

Anyone I can introduce, obviously, Austin Denham.

I'm happy to send the invite, but anyone else I can introduce you to, let me know.

We'll get you on Rumble, man.

We got a film us hooping.

Oh, that'd be that'd be a good video.

Yeah, we'll make a little mixtape.

That'd be a good video, man.

All right, thanks for coming out, brother.

For sure.

Thanks for watching, guys.

As always, I'll see you tomorrow.
