Okay I'll give it like a like 115 then happy now. chat. Gotta please the crowd. Yeah, get a little picky out there guys because this camera's like it's gonna fix it up with it.

It was really really bad. but now I kind of fix it up and that looks way way way better. Nice. Um well.

is this yeah? I'll lose my chin right? Yeah, you could use your check. I'm just gonna post this up right here for these guys. Yeah yeah yeah, you just wet it. Yeah, yeah, cool.

All right. Okay, hmm is there outlet for a lateral for the blue dryer? Well, I guess I can plug it right here? Um yeah. I have a really long extension cable if you want? Yeah, well, not really. it's just a part.

I got it. Oh it's okay. Yeah I know we should move it up last time I thought I blew it up yeah I Remember that Yeah, that that wasn't a okay camera chat I Remember the strings out where I cut my own hair with with a little cone? You know what? That was kind of impressive. It actually turned out pretty decent.

All right. sweet. A super giant or what. Oh no.

yeah. actually I'm just gonna win a little bit even after right now. So yeah, no big deal. Okay, yeah, so what's good Dude, tell me tell me what's going on to new 2023.

Um I mean not much good to be honest. just kind of just chilling. Yeah yeah, there's been no I'm like I don't know. Um, you know I I think I think I'm doing pretty good.

Yeah I just it's just been. uh, it's been a little rocky for sure. Yeah, kind of a crazy at the beginning of the year. Um, definitely.

yeah. um would you be good? you know, healthy? Yeah dude. Yeah. just um.

just a lot of like unexpected. just back to back to back. it feels like this year a little bit. Yeah, it's a little bit like not like too common.

Yeah, yeah for sure. Uh I mean life happens, you know? Yeah for sure. Yeah, it's just because you know, playing games for so long. yeah and then being at the computer and just kind of like, um, well, like health-wise Nah, just overall like um, just whenever you're inside, you're playing games and then you're doing like that's all you're doing for years.

Yeah, whenever there's like no, like things that happen yeah or like real life, it's not very, um, like a little bit unpredictable one. I See right? Yeah, yeah, because you're not because I didn't really. Do you think we scoop back just a little bit? Yeah, okay, so I didn't I didn't have like a a big chance to like. it was a little bit.

kind of kind of. It's like, maybe like bold but I didn't really get a chance to like adult that much, right? because I started playing games and streaming when I was like 18, right? and then um, that's when you become like an adult in terms of age, right? Yeah, yeah, and all the way to 27. I didn't really get a chance to like I'd become an actual like, full-fledged adult and like responsibilities and like, how does real life actually work? you know, yeah, um, it's kind of like uh, like, you know how like actors, you know, like uh, what's his name like Macaulay Culkin you know, how like the Home Alone yeah yeah, he was like such a superstar when he was like such a child. Yeah exactly.

But even sometimes I feel like I mean I don't know what they um I know what was like their life like you know. But I assume that they have to at least have to interact with the real world to a certain degree. right? Like go, not like, go outside and Like do actual real things instead of just being at the computer all day, right? I got you because the facer face interaction face to face. Yeah, yeah, or yeah, yeah exactly.

And just just the normal things everybody does, right? Yeah. But I think um overall, in the past like like seven years, I'm able to like avoid most adult things and I get it. Oh, it's like it's like oh man, child type and it really is like people are right? Yeah, yeah. I think avoiding it or like nothing to do with it is kind of.

It's perch and it's kind of cool at the same time. You know, like it's kind of, uh, it has. There's value there. Oh, of course it's kind of like the unknown.

You know, like you don't know until you actually walk through that life. Yeah, because you know, like uh yeah, like your life may seem such a you know, colorful and like amazing fun, interactive and like entertaining, right? But like, like you said, like you know, there might be things that maybe other people might not know what's going. That's kind of how it was though, for like ever. Okay, you know, because the reality is that there hasn't been like much to do.

Like when the stream ends or whatever. it's kind of like a continuation. whatever's on strings. It's like I'll just like play up against off stream and then I'll go to bed and start up the next day right? Yeah, yeah.

but it's just just like real life events that I wasn't like used to or like didn't know could happen. Yeah, just happened a lot. like in the past like three months. It's just like just a lot of like real, just real life things that adults could deal with.

It that ain't no was possible and just kind of like. and I think it's got like a a reality check at the same time I'm supposed to do I've been like taking it a day at a time, you know? yeah. and I find like a lot of like Silver Linings and everything and I find it'd be pretty fun. Man like even though there's like bad things or like things that people think were negative right? I I find some really some good value there in like um just just going through it like an experience.

Yeah right. and sometimes like I live a life well I'm like really lucky in the position I am right? Yeah so whenever I I kinda um take a step back and look at the at the big picture right? Sure Well I'm really lucky and I get I get a lot of good things so you need all these things are like bad and like there's a lot of negatives happen at least it's an experience exactly. and you've learned from that. You know what I mean yeah for sure and I think uh you know in any I always feel like you know, like even negative things like those are like a really good teaching.

um you know, uh, a teaching like I guess a course of like you know, learning experiences. Yeah instead of looking at it like a negatively I think you could look at it as like a a great uh experience. You know, discoveries on what what what happened. you know in those situations.

Yeah, because if you don't go through those, you're never gonna know yeah, what what that life is like and uh, by taking it you know with a great attitude. That's how like we all kind of evolve. You know if you're a better person? yeah, but like that's that's great though. You know that like you're able to tackle on these uh situations and make something positive out of it and great experience and and making yourself more uh aware you know and yeah for sure I think like I was speaking about it in more like a like a blurry like you know I'm not getting any examples.

Here's a good example. Like over the last like um two years there's been a lot of like moving around from various reasons. why yeah but moving around. oh it's kind of annoying right? If you don't want to move moving is trash.

Oh it is like let's say you get evicted now right now. um uh at some time. um having to move a lot. Kind of like um if I look at it.

there's a lot of negatives to it, right? Because it kind of sucks you have to buy some stuff you have to a movie after. Yeah, you have to move stuff and like moving boxes. Yeah, get rid of like all your habits and at the same time. Um I I learned Like how to be on the fly right? Yeah? How to uh, re-adapt faster.

How to make remake? What? I like here somewhere else to displace. It's like a skill. It's like that's been incredibly useful. Oh yeah to know how to uh I'm gonna I'm gonna go for a little bit.

Yeah, go ahead and I'm gonna because I'm moving because my chairs are very wobbly and there's another conturn to make it stop doing this. Oh yeah. okay. um I think it's this one? Yeah, See that Now it's like how solid it is now.

Yeah, now we're solid. Okay, okay, we're good. but yeah. I think uh, like you're you're adaptable now.

Yeah for sure, right? Like you're able to adapt to any situation. like like a chameleon. Yeah, and it's been a bit useful. You know? Yeah, sometimes it's like it.

Always a random place, right? I Like a random place that like I'm not used to and a lot of swimmers and a lot of people in my position would feel uncomfortable doing things that they can do normally right and it feels off it kind of it's gonna it's not as good. Yeah now I'm like anywhere I Go I'm I'm way better at making it what I want it to be right and that's like been like a really like useful skill. oh you know I'm super happy about that. Yeah so whenever I went down I went there I went to L.A um I went to uh one of my friends Lubwick's house.

yeah I was stood up there and I was back there like doing the thing that I normally do like the same day and then I had to move again and the same thing again the same day I will just do it and before able to like take like a week to in order to me to feel like I can I can do that yeah you know but now it's like a day you know it's like it's going way better dude but that you know that that's amazing because like that comes in a skill of like self-awareness and being confident with who you are. Yeah because if you're kind of lost and you don't have the confidence I think people will be kind of still lost. Like you said like you know taking a week or two weeks or even a month to adapt to the situation I think uh because of you are aware of who you are, you know and confident with what your your decision making. I think that allows you to adapt quicker.

Yep. in in a scenarios like that, which is which? uh I feel like everybody should feel confident with who they are. You know because we're all different in a completely you know multiple ways. Yeah, that.

uh, we should feel comfortable. It doesn't matter who you are, what you do because there's so many different type of people like you know around the world. Yeah yeah man, yeah. Check your lunch.

I'm sorry you're saying something that's like um, something people call farming. So let's say like there's an emote call. Let's say I know, um like s'more Can I think that's an Orc right? If I did I did like Orc noises and they would, they would say I'm farming the emote right? There was that I'm farming it. It means that I'm like like I'm making them do it like I'm basically um, like influencing No, no, like like I'm already.

It's kind of hard to explain like uh, it's a term. How do I explain this chat? It's a video game tournament. Okay, when we say farming uh-huh it's like you're Gathering a lot of something. Okay, just like in real life.

Like when you farm like strawberries, exactly you're farming Okay, okay, you're funny. Oh and basically whenever I I bake people the channel typing something right? Well then I'm farming bad emotes or something or that like Emoji Oh okay, so so you're you're creating like a like a like a movement in a sense. Yeah, yeah. but you see like, think about like, um, the way I see him.

Uh, let's say they have an emoji. It's like an object, right? It's like one of them, right? If I make an all-time I get like 100 of them and I have all the myself like I farmed that Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's like a concept and basically you're saying like a word that I'm not entertaining what it is because you know I'll keep it like that. Okay, and people saying that you keep farming it because there's two things you've been saying a lot today. Oh really, it forms like crazy.

Wait on there. Yeah, it's been farming like crazy I hope it's a good word. No, no, nobody. That's why I'm not telling you I don't wanna.

It's not a negative thing. Oh man man. I I gotta stop being repetitive Then no, no. as long as you don't know, you're good.

All right. All right. Yeah, yeah, it's a good thing. it's a good thing.

All right. that's awesome now. I I Just want to say to everybody that you're you're pretty much first farming a good figure of that thing. It's a good thing it's a good thing.

Okay, well I mean because you know it's interaction. It's interactive anyways. Yeah, definitely. Hey So uh, you know.

I Also, uh, noticed one other thing that uh, you streamed and I think it was the AI yeah, were they made an AI of you? Oh yeah and you were watching your your own AI talk back. yeah yeah, it was talking to someone else. What? So what what did you think of that? Um so I think out of all the AIS they made for other streamers and other people, yeah I'm gonna be honest with you I think we probably had the worst one because um I think what happened is that the AI pulls from data right? that is probably in like high in like I think it probably takes uh, an amount of density right? So basically on YouTube there's a lot of clips of like me and Andrew Tate talking onto a podcast right? We talked a lot, we didn't talk about, we didn't have to do that for like two hours right? Yeah, and there's like because Andrew says Android is like such a a big very like uh dedicate following it there was like hundreds and thousands of Clips with a lot of views that were put out there right? So I get for a lot of people um and I guess for the algorithm that they had like me as xqc I'm a lot like that podcast is a big part of me. Yeah, even though I'll talk and stream for hours and hours now like every day, right? I Think the algorithm thinks that this podcast is a big is a big part of me and I think it pulled a lot from that podcast I See it? um for the algorithm because what I noticed is that the AI said a lot of things that Andrew was saying it like uh, in terms of like um, his accent yeah I actually rubbed up on me so my eye was a little bit British somehow or like whatever his accent is.

oh okay, right. there's a couple quotes of his in my dialogue which is like a little bit odd. yeah and even some slangs I never use that. he uses something I noticed right? So I kind of thought like I I think that um, the AI was pulling a lot from these clips because maybe it's like it's it's in high density I see so so in a sense it wasn't well-rounded like it wasn't really true like you know, well-rounded of like who you are.

It came from more of like this pie. yeah not really. it wasn't like so my mannerism and slangs yes, a little bit. Yeah but big Parts like a big part of me I think I feel like is overall my my slangs.

anything that I repented that I repeat a lot right? And a lot of those things were not even mine or like a different version of mine which is kind of odd. you know. Oh okay, because it's important when you have your foundation. You know.

Yeah, if it's not right, it just feel like it's off and I feel like the ad was off on that compared to other uh people that they had. um so so that the AI uh, it's it's a program that they um, they download. it's like an app and you just they made it. They made it.

oh they made it I think they made it from scratch. so what? So they okay so it's very complicated because they use a lot of different. So I don't think a lot of people caught a cut on that because I think even chat was probably just to that. Um so they were using a pretty like, um, normal program that every streamer has but they don't use called a guest star I think I think they use guest star.

Okay and guest star is like if you're a streamer I invite you to a chat. Yeah, right in the in the chat and it uses your camera, your audio, and your video and now we're chatting together into an application. So so this, uh, streaming right now you could do that and create in AI through what you want what's happening? No. So okay so basically I can invite somebody in chat right now and now I can talk to them like on FaceTime it's FaceTime very much.

it's this time right? Oh okay, yeah yeah. but I'm FaceTiming another streamer. so what they did is that they were FaceTiming it yeah, um the AI So they had. they had the AI have a Twitch account right? Oh okay and I think they had to accept invitation and basically the AI was the um was the facetimed Persona Okay right Yeah, is that is how it is okay and they would feed.

They would feed so and then they would feed the questions uh to the algorithm and then um then the AI would analyze and respond through that chances. Which on Market because people don't understand the chat, doesn't understand chat The Original: they were using guest Star 100 percent it's the same. It's the same screen with the bottom unless I'm crazy using guest Star Yes, they were okay. So basically because um, you want to be live right, you don't want you don't want the ad to be prepared for everything you know? Yeah, so you wanted to like feel uh because other people are gonna say well it's like contributed one Stalin It achieves two things.

One uh I Just think that it shows people that it's live right and the AI isn't prepared for this and it's not like it doesn't uh, know all the questions. Yeah, it's just yeah. it has all the code behind it, but it'll respond to the questions. Yeah on the Fly.

So so uh, so can a AI read your that feed that's going on right now? Can he read that and respond to any of that um or can you make it do that? He could. Yeah, he could. definitely 100. Dude, why don't you do like a little stream where you have the AI read all that and trying to answer back I have it already.

Well, you do. it's ready. but it's a little bit wonky. Okay, because that would be kind of funny, right? because I mean it's so hard to respond like I know you see some of those that's happening right now.

Yeah, but it's so hard for us to obviously see most of it. Yeah, but if AI because you know AI is, obviously you know gazillion times faster, that would be kind of funny, right to be able to answer and it'll be really interacting. There has been people that did that I Think right now there's a there's a stream uh of some, uh, some anime looking girl and it streams all day on its own. and it it's like a streamer, but it learned to stream like it just responds to chat and whatnot.

and it's It's like a whole thing. Oh wow, It's like it's like it's like this but on its own with an animated uh person. Oh wow, Is that not only what it is, yet, is that is that like a streamer? Yeah, it's It's an AI streamer. It's literally it's a it's this, but it's nobody.

That's what. if someone owns that account, it's just using that person. But is it the area of a purse, actual person. Or they just create? no, no, it's it's full.

I I Think it's complete from scratch. Wow. Oh hey, by the way, which way do you do you uh anymore? I've stopped doing that. Okay, so you just kind of just go down the middle.

Yeah, a little bit. That's kind of what happened these days. All right, All right. Yeah.

Sweet. Okay, yeah. anyway. yeah, does this lower a little bit? Was that? does the chair lower a little bit? Oh yeah, it does.

Okay. I Wore my high shoes today. but you know, you know what? I is that loser goes? Wait, how'd even? oh nice? Yeah, that's gonna help me out a lot. Yeah.

sweet. There you go. Yeah, yeah. Perfect.

I Thought it was as little as it gets. Dude, you always surprised me how tall you are when you stand up. Yeah I mean you're like six two? Yep, you know what? Nothing. because I hunch a lot I forget how tall I am sometimes I'll go to partisanship.

yeah and I'll I'll Stand like I'm like normal now I'll make my spine yeah, be normal human now. look around. I'll be like yo I'm like in the tallest people here. you know dude, you are tall dude I I'm always surprised when you stand up I'm like oh dang you don't have shoes on either right now Yeah I I only wear shoes also that have um Bond like really small like um oh my God like a really small Soul yeah oh I see yeah come on yeah hey but uh so uh you know like with running I you know went to this uh store that analyzes your feet.

oh yeah yeah they throw you under like this 3D uh a scanner? yeah for sure and dude I found out that my feet is actually a lot smaller than I thought it was oh yeah I was gonna embarrassed but then like you know I already have a wife and kid I'm like I don't care about that. you know? yeah it makes sense. Yeah okay but they really fit you with the rice shoes. They're not type of shoes you should go to like one of the running stores and they will.

They will like they will get you the right shoes because my feet it doesn't hurt as much as I used to anymore when I'm running. Oh yeah yeah. um so yeah you get a soul model for you so it doesn't like hurt whenever you're running because it's yeah, it's more forgetting. Okay yeah yeah because I guess it's not just you know having the right cushion or whatever they uh tell you about the Arches for sure the way your foot lands and are you more of a heel Lander toe Lander or like side to side and I didn't know any of that even though I played Sports before.

but uh ever since I got the right shoes. Man like my feet have been happier than ever. That's crazy. That's pretty chill.

Well I knew there was like a different like ways that your foot like works with like the ground in your shoes I didn't know you could actually change it and make it better or whatever. Yeah, make more commented Yeah so there's like a shoes called like the stability shoes where like you know if you more of like a like a I guess big big toe Lander like inner inner foot Lander yeah then they have the soul where it's more stiffer on the inner sole. Oh so when you land it pitches flattered. It makes sense.

Yeah yeah I was like oh damn so. I I Really? um man, these guys save my feet like I I Want to like Go? You know, thank them for them? Yeah I mean see? well um growing up? remember uh did a lot of skateboarding right? Yeah and people don't realize this. but skateboarding shoes will. If when you're growing up, well up your feet it'll it'll it'll ruin them.

Oh the actual skateboard shoes is when you're skating. Yeah, because the skateboard shoes has to be like a certain like shape or whatever right and whatnot. Yeah yeah and growing up you want you want your uh your foot to be like well supported and like you know it wanted to grow properly right? Yeah, But if you grow up, uh only wearing skateboard shoes? yeah just saying it. you get flat foot.

Oh so that was another thing they talked about. so I got pretty lucky with that I guess my my feet still traditionally my brother when we were skinning a lot as you had to wear um like fitted stuff and then they had to get like not like so like some therapy thing gone yeah to get his foot back on track because it was getting like super flat. it was all it was all it was bugging. oh dang and um I kind of got said because I have words skip which one skip which is my life pretty much right.

Yeah yeah you need to get Ortho Orthotics or thought yeah and that is oh like oh yeah or thought and I think Orthopedic is more like uh, surgery like they come into like like legs and foot but okay I think the orthopedic is that what it is orthopedic? yeah like yeah. I think I think that's right, orthopedic shoes or the locks. no that's like yeah, whatever. yeah anyway um and it kind of help.

so yeah now I know a little bit about um about a foot uh food science also so like that's why you you were Landing some tricks it was fine Landing some tricks man like at the uh what was it Venice Beach yeah you know at the skate park you're doing something like what is it 360 flips and like it was. You know what? It was fine. It was a little bit depressing to be honest. I'm Gonna Keep it a buck with you like I'm not gonna hide it like I feel like um oh there's two problems I have these days.

Yeah one um my knee is it doesn't you know I've done it before I like I haven't had surgery on it. yeah and surgery gonna uh it kind of failed. oh did it really? Yes I need to get another surgery done. my ACL still is still like loose and just out completely out.

Oh dang and if I land poorly It'll like. if I land poorly right now it'll just detach like it'll it'll slide it just it'll go to the side. Oh dang. and the problem with that is that it'll damage the meniscus.

You know, like little. You know, like um in between in the knee there's like a little cushion right like a like a pillow right? Yeah yeah that your car. It's like a piece of cartilage. So things that move properly.

Yeah right. Um right now my ACL is like out like it's it's not holding it. so if I fall and it slips out right well it'll go. it'll go damage it is what I'm is what I think I was told.

Yeah yeah so there's like no bushing there anymore. Well it's it's yeah, there's no more wire so in your need is like an X right? yeah of two wires. one of them is very very strong which they say that um usually really only snaps or tears and usually like car accidents like that right here. But the other one, uh the ACL everybody tears it.

Soccer a lot people. You know soccer. they the crazy amount of people I get ACL tears. Oh yeah uh, those are like basketball players.

Yeah and then with torsion that I think that's the piece of wiring that that um does with the torsion. So if you're putting your foot down as a pivot and you go and you then you do a a 90 degrees and you go to the other side or like a like 100 like you know, put your foot down and you torsion and you go back right? That's what that does. So I have to be very careful about doing torsion and skateboarding is a lot. It's a good amount of torsion, right? Yeah, yeah for sure.

Yeah. so I so I have like no confidence one because it's not. well, you're mentally kind of cautious, right? Yeah, yeah. and also it's something that you don't really understand it.

Um, if you've had braces before in your teeth and you remove them right? How did you feel when you first were about to eat something in right? You feel like your teeth are going to break the second you bite on something because it feels fragile. Oh, there's like no support there anymore. Yeah, you feel exposed and you get uncomfortable. I Right And you have the feeling that if you bite, it's gonna break.

It's gonna. it's gonna. it's gonna feeling it. Yeah, yeah, okay, that's first.

it's very odd, right? Um, same way. same way. the same way it feels the exact same way. Okay with an Uh ACL surgery.

So there's two parts I Mean there's not a bunch of parts I'm not gonna act like I'm a scientist. Um, surgery right? But a very common thing is that people you need to have physical therapy right? So a little muscle to regain it and because um, yeah I Get it like you're wiring in your knees is strong, but you need muscle to support it Also right? Like you want your muscle to be strong. so you have to do therapy for the muscle to catch up right? in order to support the the, um, the ligaments. Yeah, But then.

But then what happens then is that you also have to start believing it in your head that it's strong again. Yeah, and that takes a long time. It takes a long time to trust your body again. That's right because mentally like it's just um for so long, even like scared of jumping not not to break it more.

And when you have surgery we have so much pain and whatnot like you think it's it's it's weak. You have to like regain that mental fortitude or mental like strengthen and it took me a while to get there right. and I don't think it ever really never recovered because it's not repaired anymore. it's not repair anymore.

remember it's not like broken still. yeah. so when I skate I'm always careful. it's really trash like I'm always careful of that and on top of that I'm really tall and I'm I'm I'm I'm taller and I'm I'm old older as I used to be right I feel like my body's a tower and that my my lower part of my body is like this Jenga and I feel like it like I removed both part of the Jenga and now we have the middle block right? Oh and whenever I go for a trick, nobody knows what the gonna happen with the top of the tower if it's in a tub or not.

yeah and I overly trust myself and I I one time I towered you know uh uh in the bowl when I was skinny and I go I just crashed a bit harder. oh damn it made me realize I'm just not like like my body isn't overall ready to be like a skater anymore. you know I'd have to like like I You know my muscles like have a trophied over time. you don't think I'd be at the computer.

you never, uh have to worry about when you're younger right? Like the gravity like just gravity itself. Uh, when I was I went down the bowl yeah um, my legs and well not didn't have enough muscle to push against gravity and I just I just crumpled like I can't like I can Wow that was crazy I didn't even know that was possible. That feeling must have been so scary. You're like whoa because you're expecting it to have enough.

You're right. Uh, you know muscle to hold exactly man. So that was like it kind of like took me back a little bit. Yeah, I was like damn.

um uh This is Gonna it just it hurts like the confidence of it. That's all so so so. uh Venice Beach skate park isn't gonna have Felix visiting for a while I mean I might just I just need to get like overall muscle yeah like I've been on the stairs five times. uh I'll be sore.

Oh really? So I need I need to get my body in shape where normal daily activities Oh don't make me sore or aren't like exhausted you know? Yeah dang well you know what? Um, we we should go hiking I can be fun yeah hiking Man actually uh. just recently I opened up a YouTube account. Yeah oh nice I have 90 subscribers I'm super stoked man. Watch out I'm gonna come catch up.

let's chill. Yeah, so it's fun though. You enjoy it though. Uh, you know it's it.

I I It gained a lot more respect for people that do social medias. even more so because now, um, you know I'm trying to provide uh, you know, yeah, provide some entertainment right for the crowd. Yeah, and it's a lot harder than just recording, getting up and recording because now like you know you, you're putting the pieces together. you know, uh to make one solid video like it took a lot longer than I thought for me to upload my stuff from my phone to the computer to YouTube yeah yeah, all that took so long.

and yeah I mean you I think you learn a lot though from like just the whole process. whatever process. yeah and then you understand like new systems and you have you start having fun with it. Yeah, that's like, well, it's yeah, it is pretty cool.

so like you know, I got two videos up right now. oh that's true. yeah and then uh, one of them is actually unhiking at this place called uh Black Star Canyon in Orange County oh okay oh man, uh so first of all, we had no idea what this, um uh, this hiking trail was all about. There's like a really crazy paranormal, uh, mysterious history behind it.

Yeah, this hike or this property it was owned by the Native Indians back in the early 1800s or no late 1800s and uh and then the you know, like the cattle Farmers came along and I guess they ambushed them So hundreds of Native Indians have yeah, basically ambush in this black circanion and you could still go up uh and find you know the Monumental pieces. You know, historical pieces up there were like you know there was like a kitchen or whatever. so it's like a landmark. Yeah yeah, so you know we go there not knowing in the beginning of this year because you know we just wanted to get out because you know, beginning there it was raining.

so the first weekend that I got Sunny uh me my daughter and my wife went up there and uh, not knowing the history of it. So we go in and a hike in the beginning is like very casual. you know, just like there's pave uh you know. uh Trails about two and a half miles in and that last mile to get to, there's a waterfall by the way at the end.

uh before you get to that waterfall. uh about three quarters of a mile or half a mile. you know. Uh, before the hiking before the waterfall, it gets treacherous.

like Boulders uh, poison ivy brushes that you just have to like. You know? oh hell no yeah, there's all these crazy I mean you could. You could make your way around it, you know. but there's a Creek in the middle.

All you got to do is follow that. but when there's a water fall I mean obviously that's when you want to go. Yeah, but when there is a waterfall, there's a creek that goes right along the trail and you there's no way that you could go from one side. in in, yeah, switch back, switch back.

We did it like probably about 30 times. Yeah, we got two. the uh, the end. but this Boulder I'm telling you they're like, you know, as tall as you on some places and uh, you gotta have the right shoes.

It's very slippery and uh, it's pretty cool though it is really cool. It's really rewarding. So once we got to the top right, or uh, halfway there when we get into this treacherous area. So I remember how I said that there was a massacre of like the Indian Native Indians When we get there, there's this native Indian guy in the middle of the creek with like a ceremonial, uh, like you know, items gathered up on top of this rock.

Yeah and he's playing like uh, an instrument. oh that's cool and we're like oh man, this is so awesome. you know and remind you we had no idea what this place was because we didn't research it. Oh okay, but it's still.

It's still kind of like people will go there like no, it's like you can still, it's not like you're invading something. He's like uh, spot or whatever, right? It's like a normal whoa whoa with the local people like you know from uh, people that are in Orange County they all know about it I just wasn't aware of it. Oh okay, so I guess there's like a a weird crazy ritual that goes on at night time. Yeah, there's they've said, you've seen you many UFO uh sightings and there's been um, uh, like people throwing rocks from like the hills when they're If you hike at nighttime, there's all these crazy stories about I had I wasn't aware of it.

Oh yeah, and so we get up there. My daughter's like six years old, right? Yeah! So we were prepared for what how treacherous the hike was gonna be on the last three quarters of the mile. So we it took us way longer than we were expecting because the round trip is seven miles. It took us six and a half hours.

Oh and we started at uh, 1 p.m Yeah, so Sundown is around what like five o'clock Yeah! so on the way down it's pitch dark. Oh and by the way, that's so bad. Yeah, so uh I guess back in the 60s there was a school bus that went up the hill above the creek right above this hiking trail and it rolled down in in about 30 kids have died there. Jesus And there was this and again I Don't know any of these stories right? while we're there, there's this tire stuck in between his big folders.

Yeah! and I was like how did this tire get down there? like how how like you know I'm just trying to all because you know nothing about it. Yeah so I took a picture of it and then we go back and then find out that that's the exact tire from that school bus and so uh, you know. Okay so we get to the waterfall. we're coming down.

it's already getting dark, it already sunseted and you know like there's there's all these uh uh Mountain you know covering. Obviously you know if you're at the beach, you know it's sunsets at five but like if you're in between the mountains it's you're already sun setting around 4 30. so it's getting darker. yeah because because the you know it Cascades over everything.

but anyways, we were coming down and we were the last ones. I'm telling we were the last ones and there's no other way. uh oh my God that that that thing always serious like every time. um I'm sorry.

so like there's no other way of coming down from the waterfall because the waterfall is about 50 foot high and it's just rocks. you know, like tall high uh rocks, you know Red Rocks that's like surrounding the area and there was a guy that passed us right and I turned around and you know and I said hey, how's it going it doesn't say anything, he just kind of just was looking down and just passed us like this yeah and I was thinking like oh okay, well whatever. you know you would think with a family, uh with a six-year-old and you're in a pitch dark in middle of nowhere, you're in wrapped right? Yeah, that's just what a normal person would do I am assuming I'll just say hi at least existence. yeah at least.

Ah yeah, so he doesn't right and again I'm not aware of what's what. you know what? what kind of History this place has you know. So then uh, we get to the end of the treacherous part of it the three-quarter miles and then we were about to get onto the you know, the easier, actual like you know, paved trail. Yeah, right when we got to the Fort we see another guy running up towards us and then I'm telling you this is already pitch dark.

Yeah, in the dark, yeah in the dark and this guy's running up towards the waterfall you know and of course again I said hey, what's up it doesn't say anything, he's just kind of looking down and runs past us. I'm like that's kind of awkward. like okay, well there's always going you know I was like rude, whatever and uh and then we finally get down to the parking lot in this parking lot again and it's in the middle of the canyon. So to get to this parking lot like the normal, like you know another civilization.

let's say like you know where the houses are or where the uh, where the uh supermarkets are. It's like a good eight to ten miles from that parking lot. So if you add 10 miles plus the three miles where this guy was running into, that's 13 miles over. Yeah, sundown and there was no cars.

Oh so I think oh, he's just oh, he's walking, he's going somewhere. Dude, there was no cars in the parking lot, our car was the only car. Oh so then I'm assuming wow, what up you know? So I'm training for uh like a marathons right? I'm like damn this guy's dedicated man. like he's he's pushing hard.

but then after that night I go home right? and then I'm looking up like I wonder if anybody uh posted on YouTube about this Canyon because you know obviously I made the video you know we? that was gonna be our first video. So I looked it up and you know there there's quite a few right? it comes up on the on the list and every almost every single one of them. it's not about oh beautiful waterfall, beautiful hike. it's like uh, like a paranormal.

uh it's most haunted hike in California All these things seriously didn't think like researched it before we went there. You're just gonna just kind of wait. We just win. Okay yeah so then I'm talking to my clients the very next day right? I said hey guys like have you heard of uh Black Star Canyon and you're like oh, you didn't go there at night time right? and I'm like, well on the way down it was Pitch dog he's like dude, did you take your daughter I'm like yeah I went with my family like do not ever do that again and I'm freaking like what why she's like, well, didn't you look it up I'm like, well yes I did but he's like dude, you're lucky because on a full moon night which was that night that we went, there's rituals where and you could look it up too.

oh there's people that I guess um that that they dress up in this black robe and they they walk on the hills of that trail and they kind of do weird things there. Yeah? I believe it? yeah uh, that's becoming on the west coast um oh is it uh yeah. um I Went to Phoenix for uh, biking when I was a bit younger. okay and we had so we had to open up a lot of maps.

yeah uh and trails because you know, um, my dad's like a really really good uh mountain biker and yeah, mountain bike like racing when we're young and like a lot of mountain biking. Yeah, so we had the big trails and whatnot. okay uh and on the maps a lot you'll find uh there's like vortexes and stuff like that. Oh yep and these are spots where like people go to like have some sort of like I don't know yeah spiritual like Enlightenment experience like meditation.

There's a lot of like really weird, lots and weird names on all the maps and like in like Utah Phoenix um all these places like on the west coast right? Yeah and I think just people have. they do stuff like that right? Yeah, uh. that's the thing. actually this is true right? Chat like Vortex and stuff like that.

am I crazy? Yeah yeah. Sedona yellows too? Yes. Sedona Yeah, that's right. Yeah, yeah, it's yeah.

people do stuff like that. It is what it is. but that's pretty crazy though. They um that you were you were there on that nine people were probably going there right? dude.

They just started warning me that don't ever take your daughter there because something could have happened. but we went with a good energy. uh like we're with the positive energy of we want to see a beautiful waterfall at the end. yeah oh I want to see some you know, uh some.

yeah being like the smaller people died and like that. Yeah yeah, let's go to the bus like it's just kind of dark and weird. Yeah exactly no. So I think uh for sure but to take my daughter at night time.

but I do want to go back during the day because at the end of the waterfall? Yeah dude. Uh so so at the end where that waterfall. is, there's a cave. There's a big hole like Cavern oh a halfway up, maybe about 20 feet up to the left of the waterfall and uh, the Water also flows through there and I found out that that was the um, the coal mine shaft.

Oh so the liners used to go down there. so there's this. they died too. like it.

Yeah, that that I didn't I I didn't hear about. but uh, so there's that as well. So I want to go when the water's not flowing and and just ex you know, explore I just love doing exploring. you know? Yeah yeah but dude I want to take you there new.

you know if there's ever a chance oh that. that's kind of scary isn't it? We got this. we got this. yeah I can be pretty fun I decided when I was uh young, like like my dad she he would try to make his do all like all the stuff Outdoors right? dude.

yeah, did a lot of hiking and mountain climbing a little bunch. that's that's awesome. Yeah your death seemed like a very uh you know experienced Outdoorsman is what it sounded like to me, you know? and he knows about like all the all the stuff that can you know he knows about all the standards and all the things to look for and be worried about. like he knows all of it.

you know, like like slippery rocks or Like when like the the weather shifts or something like that. like he'll know anything about it. He like different types of rocks. yeah he knows about that.

like everything comes into like mountains and whatnot. yeah um yeah. like was he Agronomy um iguanomer or something like that or um oh okay uh in French called uh it's it's something to do with um like plants and whatnot and like uh I guess I don't know. like like minerals and soil and whatnot.

okay uh National geology not like that. it's more like plants and oh agronomy? um that's awesome. yeah I mean a whistle I mean it's a it's a degree and also I love my dad. Okay, you know he'll brag a lot by his degree and all he's ever actually use a degree like a singular time his entire life.

I mean as first I was in marketing. um which is how I think pretty much harder for me. like because it was in marketing for company. they had um video cameras.

you know what tape you know, like the actual tape in it. like um and he had 12. um and it would bring them back home because that the film presentations and marketing like stuff over there these small cameras and he would let us use them so we would use the cameras to fill my own stuff. Oh okay, that's awesome.

yeah we make videos and well not and we would you know? Oh so you always been around like filming like recording cameras. Yep oh that's cool man. have you ever thought of like going acting? No, not really. No dude.

hasn't there been opportunity where people want to like do some documentary on you or or or or maybe you use you as like a uh like a like a x, not extra but you know, like like a character in a a story. Not really. Um the only thing we've done in that in that realm was um uh what am I playing on teams like Team Candle and like uh, pro teams for OverWatch yeah they would. They would give us a crew of people that would follow us around and they would just um, they would just uh film us okay all day we didn't have to act with anything.

you know it was just on the fly. Yeah it would be new. yeah I'm more like I like doing something on the Fly Away more I literally try with like a script or whatever. I'm usually pretty bad.

uh at recordings like boot or not. that's why I said some guys the other day I told Minus when he was here. uh I was telling him record it and have it take you I think he's doing good now uh I can't do it Really? Yeah. I'm so shocked to hear that.

No way it's so bad. What? All right? Yeah, all right. well how about um, what? What about the show? Don't you? You have a show right? like where? uh I tried it that nothing more more produced I guess um I enjoyed that. Yeah, but since I was with I wasn't the problem with it? Uh, I was about the problems I don't mind I I don't care about the good parts of it.

Uh, because you can take them in for what they are. Yeah and Moana but negative Parts you can improve on them right? Of course you're gonna bundle that with it because I wasn't far enough of the of the creating process right? So I didn't I didn't When I do something yeah, like I mastered them. Yeah, you wanted to because I'm the one who built it I think I didn't build it. There was a disconnect between the product and me.

Right there was a you have an expectation. Well, yeah. but sometime there's a big uh Gap in between me and the thing. Okay, when I do something I want to feel like one I'm the thing Okay, right? Yeah, that makes sense or not.

Oh yeah, it'll sound like like uh, like Oh I'm a big deal I mean I mean if I do something I wanted to feel like a singular thing. Yeah, if it's me and imagine with something I want to be two things, right? Yeah, the the distinction creates a disconnect and it doesn't feel right I see like you want to commit with what uh, like uh, the direction you're going like you don't want to have multi. Outlet Yeah so I mastered so much I know the pieces are moving in. Yeah I send the pieces to go to places, right? Yeah, and I'm running at them but instead, uh, it felt it felt that.

but that's my fault, not their fault. It felt too much like I was being told to go to places and I was the one moving around in somebody else's thing. Oh I gotcha. and that that that feeling Yeah, it's kind of terrible.

I say yeah I get I go to me. that makes yeah, it's gonna. it's just kind of how it is. Yeah, if you're if you're a contestant, that's fine.

Sure, how's it's not I Guess yeah. Well because like you know, it's like you're basically like book that you're writing and you don't want that book to go to another story. right? Like you know, the chapters need to kind of flow together if you have to interact with it. Yeah, because then you don't already know about it.

You don't feel like you master. get somebody else's vision for it. Yeah, somebody else's thought and somebody else's interpretation. So you're not.

You don't know why? You don't know that it's important. sometimes. understand the whys right. because then you know when to do it.

and when nothing. Do it. Yeah, you master it, then it's you. Yeah.

and I did I didn't feel that. that's why that's why I I I I didn't enjoy as much but I I thought it was good. It gave me a lot of experience as well. Well that's cool.

I mean like at least you try like a different Adventure you know yeah but it was like a game show right? Yeah yeah yeah a lot of the basement. go for sure cool Yeah I mean it's what I came to LA in the first place right? Yeah yeah but then it just gonna just La just gonna just gonna trash it just gonna. he's one of the LA's is bad. is that my my feeling with LA or uh the city or the other state it's a little bit like I'm biased with all the bad things and all about a lot of negative thing is it happened when I was here.

oh it'll probably still gonna happen but I would see what happened so my my brain Associates with uh with that uh right it makes me want to leave us another one like it. if I leave I'm not I can't it's not like I'm gonna flee the problem. The problems aren't because I'm here. you know? Yeah, well you know.

but again like that. that's what's gonna make you stronger right? Because if you run from home, you know I'm chilling. Yeah yeah man. what was that Streamy award? Is that like where all the streamers go? like with like all the other outlets, all the streamers from every uh streaming services? Um, because you? you? didn't? you win a war? unless? oh yeah yeah? I wanna I'm just chatting in the year? Yeah? I saw that? Um yeah, um congratulations.

Yeah man. oh thank you man. Yeah, that's awesome. It's because there's so there's gazillion streamers out there.

Dude? Yeah yeah, there's a bunch. Yeah, uh uh um, there was a bunch of YouTubers it was more. It's more like a YouTube thing what but introduced like some like Twitch and ticked off people in it. Now it's more like I don't even really know what it's about.

To be honest, it's more like a an award show for coming creation. Okay, and the category is that led more towards live content. So twitch streamers so I was included in that and then I won. Uh, just chatting of the year Which is like just this is a thing.

So I did you guys get nominated? uh, randomly or randomly? Okay, they're just gonna happen. Oh hey, have you seen the movie on Netflix called uh uh uh, Glass Eight or something like that? No no, oh like it's it's about this show where like this, uh you know like there's these, uh, politicians, or like you know, like uh, like a social media influencer uh is kind of, um using this one dude. he who he provides and supports all of them and one of the guys is social media influencer and they talk about twitch really yeah they're like oh yeah you know this guy's the sensation. He's like the the best twitch uh you know influencer and I forgot the actor's name.

He's like this big buff guy with like uh uh like he kind of has like a short hair. um I can't really name what movie she's in but he kind of looks like Hulk hey Batista huh they even both says yeah yeah yeah yeah exactly yeah. that guy yeah so he he supposedly like the the you know, the quick number one influencer I thought of you I was like interesting. that's interesting yeah I need to know that.

So that's like a pretty cool movie that just recently came out. yeah I don't really interact with that with the um them like I've been pretty much uh, closing down like I'm like hungering down I had much like the um you know all those stuff like that like uh in in the media out there. not much you don't have like much time to be watching movies. oh yeah I've been watching lessons of stuff like um overall so like you know, like um you know, just like watching a movie or a piece of content don't like it, an interview or podcast.

you know things that keep you like sharp in like the media world I've been like completely like out of it. Oh really? yes I've been gonna like all these like annoying to me is that it seem like everybody knows it's a Glass Onion I don't know that is what is it glasses yeah, glass egg or glass I think it's called classic yeah I don't know if it isn't Yes yeah that's what. sometimes like it. people like you're going, other people like oh dude how do you not know this or hand it under the person and I'm like it's not that I'm Eagles I just don't know You know like yeah like I just don't know like for sure? Yeah well you you are one of the creators too.

so it's like difficult for you to be able to kind of share your time when you're creating. you know, watching others. yeah but I like it though. like I like like a loving with people and and see what they do.

Whatever I'm interested in what they do. you know? yeah like I I'm trying to run this like um a lot of people for like a segment on my stream and ask them questions about their world because I'm interested in everybody else's world. Oh yeah I know about my world because I never did all day. oh I wanna know more about other people's worlds? Yeah and almost like it.

How do I say this? um more like them as a person, how to interact with it just like just like I go over here and I stream like let's say they were to stream their world Yeah, how is it like like their their daily life with that world I have a lot of questions about that, you know I think it's I think it's cool yeah I mean other people and I yeah I like observable people always say that I'm people Observer because it's my AI can say that I'm a dual Observer I don't know. Oh yeah yeah I'm really interested on this AI thing man like I I'm really looking forward to that. but what what do you think of AI By the way, like do you think we're still like not there for it to be out there to be? you know benefiting off of I think like I think with uh, almost everything else like I think there's a crazy amount of value yeah and a lot of new things and you can always I I think get that value yeah um while like weeding out and cutting down on the like the negative one like the bad thing that comes with it. yeah yeah right yeah.

so of course it's gonna be like bad things like like uh, deep fake that are like doing bad things. uh with AI right? Yeah and you're gonna uh, it needs it needs polishing it. Okay, yeah but I think being overly scared of it is bad because there's value in everything right? Yeah, um that's that's what my like my mindset. Everything Is Right Someone tell me about content.

My people were like, oh dude, don't do like bad sub content like girls do that I don't I don't care. it's new content. it's new things. People can enjoy it right? Yeah, we can polish it right.

Like this is like things that are not okay that are happening. They can cut down on it and not do that right? Yeah, yeah. but it's like at the end of the day. Um, you know you still create something new.

You expand. Yeah, yeah, so expand and polish don't instead of expanding because there's gonna be some rough edges and just polish them for sure. So I Feel about AI Okay, a lot of good. A lot of good value.

a lot of good potential, right? People People scream and yell at the negative things, right? Yeah, just polish. That's it. That's my thought. Yeah I Feel you on that because like everything even in the past, you know the things that we're benefiting out of.

A little scared, you know? Yeah, but look at now like you know we're adapting to a lot of like Technologies whereas before, like you know I'm pretty sure there was a lot of scare of Technology Drones People just get a drone at the beginning. Oh dude, you're gonna put the camera on and fill in the backyard. People In: like in in filming, in creation, even possibly in I guess in in Security in entertainment in um in live shows drones are are insane. um I I think I even mentioned about that like the first time or the second time I met you I remember yeah yep like uh like they they shot uh you know they brought a drone out to rescue somebody out of National Park yeah yeah see like that.

That was definitely helpful because that lady would have been super dehydrated the stroke in middle of like you know the National Park So yeah there is a really great positive things about technology. yep you know um yeah it's because um people uh too much over like having some sort of reactions because there's like an incident originally but um um with a drone or something. no no no no AI um there was like uh it just it's I'm I'm not gonna make a refresh it too hard again. This is basically what happened is that this is, um there was an incident where um some guy was like caught, um looking at some like indecent, uh pictures.

okay using a paid service for AI of other of his like colleagues in that sense and then it made like a super big movement on the internet I mean okay okay again. okay I'm trying to shoot my Awards very carefully here. like super super carefully right when negative bad things happen right? Yes, there's a lot. There's a lot of like hurt and damage and it's really trash and you don't need things to happen right? Yeah, but I was looking for like a silver lining it right? I I Feel like it? It made people aware of a problem and then uh, the way people are tackling it with like laws and whatnot I think it brought I think it broadens the question right, of the negative things in its existence and how to deal with it further.

right? and in that sense kind of shapes up or accelerates the future of polishing these things so that they don't happen again. Or um, you know that that it happens less often or in a more in a more polished way, right? So like I said, it's gonna. It's kind of hard to say this because you know people will be very emotional when you say things on the internet right? Yeah, yeah, and um I I like I get it? I understand that there's other people that are like you know, victims of that that happened. You know, because like their body was used like in a way they should have been against their consent right? Uh uh with like because of the AI right? and it's really trash.

but but um, you know there were some. um because you know they were like, um it made a lot of questions. It brought up a lot of questions I think that are that are kind of like needed in that? Yeah, that will help the future for sure. Anyway, yeah um what else some what else? Yeah man well it is what it is.

you know, like it's it's kind of. It's difficult to uh avoid like some I guess uh technology Advance advancements because you can do so much but just kind of uh like you said taking the positive out of it and hopefully that will outweigh the the negative side. Yeah for sure. Yeah yeah for sure.

Yeah it was always I always think it's really cool though to see all the things that happen and it's developing it. um like on the fly like uh things are happening every day that are new then we've been seen in the past and they're like super crazy big advancements. It's like a a complete new world every time. if you think about if you think about uh AI yeah anything like that I get it to people have used uh Ai and other stuff in in a lot of Worlds forever for the longest time so it's not like until you just appeared it's brand new right? Yeah well for us as Outsiders I think these products that are like user friendly and and seeing what happens when you give a product to the world right not the companies to the world.

what will they think? It gives more brains and more people to interact with the product and creates new things. and then these things they they ask it really fast they slow ball right? Yeah, Because then people have ideas and people are creative. People do things right. They'll inspire actual good, Really insane.

uh. other things you know, like that experts are going to work on and whatnot. I think that it has like a massive amount of value? Yeah, you know? Oh definitely. and it will help out like you know whether you know it or not, like they're helping out like you know, like they're family members and a lot Like you know, long distance, uh, distances, where you're you're really not aware of, but they might be helping you know the family members that that I need.

Yep, like uh, what is it like in the hospitals or like, uh, like for instance, like you know how your family is all the way up and uh, what is it quit back right? like in Canada like same thing with me I have family up in uh in Japan there's a long distances and I'm able to kind of communicate whereas before if we didn't have this, I might not be able to actually see that. Oh yeah for sure? Yeah, yeah, exactly. You know, yeah for sure. So I guess I just yeah.

how does it feel? By the way, because I'm pretty much done. Oh the hair. yeah it feels good. Yeah, feels super good.

All right. I'm just gonna go a little like uh, hair products hold on Can I be honest? um um I feel like the length at the back? huh is good? yeah I feel like the sides? yeah, we aren't short enough. Oh yeah, but yeah. but by a small amounts.

Okay, yeah yeah. I feel kind of bad enough making it you did all that? No, no, it's okay. Yeah yeah. um yeah.

just because. um, the bag was really long, right? Yeah. but the bag is usually like a like a byproduct. you know, like it kind of.

You know it grows as their hair grows I just feel like we cut, um, a really good amount over here. Yeah, but it it, um, it doesn't fit the sides in. Okay, okay, like uh yeah I'll I'll be rude or whatever. it's just my understanding of your hair works or whatever.

Yeah, but but you still want the hair like over the ears and everything right? Yeah, yeah. okay yeah. I could take off a little bit more. Yeah, of course.
