TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

Man, if I keep doing this, something cool has got to come out of it, right? Because you can't be this busy and be broke. I've been this busy and broke my whole life, so. Maybe, well, maybe nothing good is about to happen.

But I'm also ready for that. Like if nothing good happens, I'm pretty good with what's happened right now. Look, what I've always said in life is it's better to try and fail than just to sit on your ass. It's like that guy at the skate park who just lurks, doesn't skate, goes and he hangs out.

He's like, why have I not gotten better? It's like, well, are you gonna do the intro, Jason? I'll do the intro when I goddamn feel like, you're in the files, you freaking, what is it? Like, what you get off this boomer?

What are you, what is he? What are you? What are you? What generation are you?

You're a boomer, I don't know what I am. All right, what are they? I'm going, are you something? I've got a sink.

Mr. Laxxer, yeah. My balls is totally moving. Do any room in?

Not that we get back home. I've got the horn and desire. My balls are a fire. You're ready to take us to the top.

Welcome to the show. Did you know that your bomb is on? That was sick. Yeah, all hell.

It wasn't. It wasn't that great. You're a real singer. You're not really a singer, but you're a singer.

You have a million followers and you have many, many songs. You have hits. Thank you, bro. You have a hit, right?

Yeah, well, I have a song right now. It's number 31 on alternative radio with like over 20 million streams that it's just taken off. And how does that work when you don't have a, because it's not about gold or platinum anymore, right? Yeah, yeah.

So we have to have about 100 million streams to gold gold, I think. And then it's like 500. No, no, no, it's a billion streams to go platinum. Oh, it got really, did it get way harder or did I just?

Yeah, no, no, like it's really hard, right? Yeah, I have a lot of friends that are like really big artists and is like 1% have platinum plaques. We all have great careers. Like I have a great life.

Like I mean, I would have a nice car and a nice home and pay for everything off music. But the platinum thing is like, good luck. But we'll get it one day, baby. Who has name a few artists that have platinum?

Who's that? Well, for the newer artists. New or something. Taylor Swift or something?

Yeah, the newer artists, they got to be pretty big. You know, like back in the back in the day, like in the 2000s and the 90s, music was only bought. You know, it wasn't streamed. So it was easier to sell a million records.

Now it's like who's buying a record, you know? Yeah, I don't know. I don't know anything about that. Have you bought a record lately?

Nah. Yeah, see, I mean the last record I ever bought was my record. Let's go, baby. Me too.

That was only just to be, because I was like, there's no way it's really in the store. And then I went in and I was like, look at that. It's in the store. Yeah, I'll buy it.

And then I took a photo of it. I don't think I played it, but whatever. I've got your ring on. It's got a crocodile on it.

Yes. No, an alligator. And alligator, because I'm from Florida. Yeah, so there's alligator there.

And what kind of stone is it? I don't know. The guy that made it told me. So clocks and colors, shout out to those guys I have a ring coming out.

You don't know the name of the stone that you picked for your own ring. There's a lot I don't know, bro. I mean, it's a good ring, but I'd like it more if you said that it was like a special rock that was like grew in your family or maybe an alligator. I think it's yeah.

You placed it with an eye or something. I think you're right on that. I forgot to say. It's alligator's eyes.

Yeah, I don't know something. What's your name again? It's for ever, bro. Now what were you?

I am 31. Yeah. You don't really have bat. It's kind of a, you know what?

You don't have, you're not, you got hotter. Whoa, yeah, I like that. I like that. No, I see.

Thanks, bro. I appreciate that. I see like, because with the sunglasses on, I wasn't sure, but because you got tattoos. Because I feel like some chicks, because we kind of look like we would hang out, you know what I mean?

Like we both like overly tattooed. And you're not like the most shredded dude in the world. And neither am I. Well, you have a pretty face.

Thank you, bro. You too. I appreciate that. When you took your sunglasses off and you like, do you have like, you kind of do have like dark circles a little bit and a little bit baggy?

But they're not ugly eyes. They're like pretty eyes. Like your girlfriend probably thinks what I'm saying is right, right? Yeah, I'm kind of right.

Like it's not. Thank you, bro. It's making me feel better about me. Because I'm older.

And I have like, especially lately, my eyes are more tied. Yeah. I'm 50. You know, I see you do not look 50 at all.

I like it. You look younger than me. We're getting out. Yeah, I think we should.

Yeah. I mean, you heard me sing. You're great. You're great.

I'm all right. I could get away with being like on a track with you but listen, what rock music is. It's not about. I have a huge range, though.

Your range? Oh, yeah. I can sing palettes. What is one of my hits?

Wait, I'm talking to people that don't care about me. Yeah, that's my life. I feel that. I had a couple of albums back in the day.

I had a couple of charts on myself. Whoa. Yeah, Taint Stick is a band that was on the Billboard charts and I was the singer. And we had like, we were on the Billboard charts.

I got like one of those dumb blocks or whatever. Whoa. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then we made our own albums.

We changed it because we had a radio show on Sirius. So we couldn't go on tour. So the record label that we had a deal with, they got all the money. And we were like, wait a minute.

You're saying, this is how much money we get for having an album on the Billboard charts? And they were like, yeah, will you make your money on the road? Do you go on the road? Yeah, I know you make your money or is it changed now?

And are you able to get money in the record label? It doesn't? Or how does that work? I feel like people are making money out there.

I don't know. Wait. OK, so you're saying live doesn't make money either? No, it does.

It totally does. It's a thing for me where I am doing these shows where I'm getting paid a certain amount of money. But it's like, look, let's say I get $7,000 to do a show. I fly out there.

I fly my drummer, my bass, my guitar player, my manager. And then I do hotels, I do cars, and I do per dioms, and I do food. And it's like, oh, try to just perform it in front of 50,000 people. And you made $100.

But it's the journey, man. But at the merchant stuff. Yeah, the merch, you can make a lot of money on two different things. But I feel like it's getting harder and harder to make a living doing your dreams like this.

But you just got to keep pursuing and keep going. But the way that I make my money is from streaming. So every time somebody streams my song, not right now. Because I'm signed this record label called Epitaph, and I got a recoup.

That sounds like a, that name sounds like a familiar, big, powerful name. Yes, it's one of the biggest punk rock labels like ever. Yeah. And you're on them.

And I'm on them. So that means you don't get no money, they get it. Yes, but they did give me a lot of life changing money at the beginning where I was almost homeless again. Like a bat check.

A really big checker. You're almost, you've been homeless? I was. You had a pretty hard childhood, right?

I had a very hard childhood. Yeah, I was homeless as a kid from five to 12. So for seven years, I lived in cars and 10s. When you were five?

In Orlando in Florida. My mom and my dad and my two brothers. So your whole family leave in a car? So who's, where'd you sleep?

So my dad and my brother would be in the front, and me, my mom and my little brother would be in the back. So literally for years, I would sleep like this. But during the summer time, we could go to campsites, and we put up a tent, you know, and it's kind of like, I didn't see any difference. What did you eat in the campsites?

Oh, so this is where it gets even crazier. I was a vegan for 19 years. Wait, not your whole family? Yeah.

Because I was going to say, to be five and save at your vegan, it's not really, it was your family's choice. It was my family's choice. So that means you guys were broken in trying to eat plant-based meals. It wasn't really plant-based meals.

We would be eating ramen noodles and rice, and maybe like a little vegan sausage, just this little. And like, but very, very weird life. My dad was a really cool guy, but he was like super hippy. Yeah, sounds like.

He would be smoking weed as a little kid. I'd be drinking with something. It sounds like you were in a bit of a cult, but just like in a car with just you guys. Yeah, but it sounds like a cult later.

Cult later, bro. You all had to eat plant-based. You all had to be, you know what to break out. And it was kind of like Nigel Houston, when he went through with his dad, like, you know, telling him what to eat and what not to do, and what to this and what to that.

And like, we were like anti-medicine. We didn't go to the doctor. We didn't, like, we were super hippy. Okay, did anybody ever get like sick enough to go to the hospital or something?

Yeah, my brother almost died. He got stung by a bunch of wasps, and he had to have his heart restarted. I mean, obviously. He did go to the hospital?

Yeah, I mean, when you have to go, but besides that. He gave, your dad gave in and was like, okay. Well, I mean, who's that one actor where his like, stung was dying, but he's a Scientologist and he wouldn't go to the hospital. It's not like that, you know, but.

Okay, so he gets it. He gets it like a shot, beat your leg off. He'd be like, all right. You know, I get it.

I get it. Okay, so it wasn't completely crazy. Not everything that happens wrong. So instead of a drastic uncomfortable change, why not just remove the bad from your habit?

And that's where fume comes in. Well, Turkey may be great on sandwiches, but there's a better way to break your bad habit. It's wood, it's solid craftsmanship. You can fidget with it and oof.

That fresh minty flavor. You know what's nice about this? I'm not gonna end up with horrible breath. Actually, it's probably helping my breath, if anything.

It's bringing me back to the old days, but with none of the bad stuff that I associate with those bad old days. Fume is pronounced fume in case you were wondering. And I find it to be delightful. I like that it's got no chemicals in it because I don't like chemicals, because I try to be healthy.

But I also like sucking on stuff. Yes, you do. Instead of electronics, fume is completely natural. It's completely natural instead of vapor, fume uses flavored air.

And instead of harmful chemicals, fume uses all natural, delicious flavors, mate. If you've got a bad habit that you got a break, that's where fume comes in. Stopping is something we all put off because it's hard. But switching to fume is easy, enjoyable, even fun.

See you live now. He's not. He passed away a few years ago. Sorry, mate.

It's okay, right before. My mom is alive, yes, yes. She got money? No, so she lives in a trailer right now.

So what I'm trying to do is give him money to buy her house and. You don't want her to live with you, right? No, well, I we offered her to come and live with us, but she's just, even my beautiful fiance. She's like, yeah, come, come, because she loves my mom.

And I was like, I would love her to come live with me, but she doesn't really want to. So it kind of, you know, it is what it is. Yeah, but we're trying. We're going to get it, man.

So you're trying to get enough money to get her house as well? So this is the problem that we live in. You know, I'm 31 years old. I'm engaged.

I'm trying to start my future. This is the first bit of money where I'm able to buy a nice car and get a nice house. And it's like, okay, do I do the selfish thing where I go, you know what? I'm going to live in an apartment and then I'm going to buy my mom a house and I'm going to rough it.

But then it's like, I've been roughing it my whole life. Like when I moved from Florida out to LA, you know, to pursue all this, I lived on a couch for a couple of years and then I lived in the living room and then, you know, I had nothing working two jobs. Like I've worked my ass off even for this little bit. So it's like, what do you do?

You know, it's like, I want to, I send my mom money and I help her, but it's like, I also have to think of mine for you two just a little bit. I think the hardest thing, because you know, I'm older than you, I've been through it already, but to have nothing and then to have something and not flex every little cent you have is hard. It's right. It's a responsible thing.

Like now that I'm older and now I've met, you know, because I hang out with negative people because I was negative, you know, and that's how I felt secure around people that were insecure because we could all relate. And then when I got older and achieved things, gained confidence, went to therapy, started associating with people that were, you know, still still, you know, we're all still tweaked, but like, you know, a lot of shit together had that, you know, a lot of plans that had done a lot of things with their life and I'm like, oh, wow, I never thought about that, you could do that or you could invest that or you could, oh man, so you're saying you get like a condo and you read it out, like I never heard of that. I wasted so much money when I first got, because before all this, like, you know, the most I had in my account might be $3,000, $4,000 and then you go on your account and you know, you have close to big, big, big money and you're just like, wait, I could buy this, I could buy this, I could buy this. In my whole life I was shopping at the thrift store, you know, or like when I used to skateboard and I first got clothes and shoes sent to me when I first got on for the flow response and I'd be like, this is free, this is the best ever.

So I never had anything, so you have a little bit of money and you kind of want to start a big dick in a little bit. You know, because everybody disrespects you and treat you like crap your whole life and now I'm like, ah, because you weren't supposed to amount to anything and then when you get some money you need to go back to where you were with all your shiny shit on and be like none of you guys can even go. But for what no? Exactly, because the people that got to see that, all they did was not like you for flossing.

Yeah. And it didn't do anything for anybody. It's hard. It's great, it's though.

I don't regret it. I'm gonna go back to that, I go back to that, so dumb. But I also like a movie could play, because as long as I was like, all right, I'm gonna wear like $10,000 worth of clothing and jewelry and go back to Australia. And in a shock bites myself.

That's not what I want. But if it's just a movie of me walking around on such a dickhead with all this stuff on, it'd be like, let's go get tricks everybody. And then I didn't die. It's like you look like a douche.

You were being a douche. And it was funny. Like I know what you were. I wasn't trying to be mean to anybody else.

I was just, can you believe I have money to buy this jacket? Yes. Like can anybody believe it? That's kind of what it was.

I think it was like a decade of shock where I just kept buying things going. Can you believe I have this? Can anybody understand? Held me in this car makes no sense at all.

So how could I not buy another one next year? And be like, I did it again. You guys look at this. No, no, I've got an S-class Mercedes.

I don't even know. It's 55 good. Like I was. But that's what I was doing.

You know, I never even seen him Mercedes Benz growing up. I didn't even know those existed. And then I got, you know, the CLA one. And I was like, what do you know, a nice little one to do?

I'm starting a record deal. I'm 80 grand. I still smack on people that had like C-classes and stuff. I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like a C-class dude.

I don't want to. Listen, listen, listen, listen, it takes a real man to look back at when you were not being the best. I was like six months ago. Okay, okay.

That was like, days ago. That was like, I never, that's a good thing. That's good stuff. But you know, sometimes it's hard, but we're not taught.

You know, for me, when I was in high school, I would have one pair of jeans and then holes in my shoes from skating and one shirt. And that's what I wore all week. So I was always the poor loser kid. So it's now it's like, my closet's ginormous.

I don't wear half the stuff, but it's like, I kind of need it. It's a fashion stuff. I used to be, I know. Like these I got set from Vulcan for free.

These I got, like, I used store, like I shop at thrift stores and stuff. These I got from- If you shop at thrift stores, those shoes are like, balsy. Thanks, man. I know.

That's like a pancake that was a tack-wack cat or something. I was gonna put on my band seat. What happened to the back of it? I know, but that's why they're great, bro.

They're the lazy shoes. You just put them on and then boom, you're good to go. You know? I mean, it's not really a shoe.

Let's see. Like, pulling in a shoe. Can you point the camera to it? Okay.

I got at least for 12 bucks at a thrift store, like 10 years ago. Like in Bailey Tell, you know? They're still good. I'm not having for another 10 years.

That's where I feel like fashion, you know, I like fashion, but I don't, there's certain things where I'm like, nah. These are more comfy than fashion. I know, but you've, but it's still a, you're rocking them. That's true.

You know? But am I pulling it off? Yeah, because you're, because that's, that's, that's what a fashionable person is. Somebody that can wear absolutely anything and pull it off.

I'm convinced of that. Because that hat. Nobody should wear that. But that's just, that's just back.

I know my son is 14, 15. And he wears like that. And I'm like, hey, man, what, do you know what you have on? Because you remember it from the heyday.

He's like, yeah, yeah, I know. You know, it was wack when I was coming up. And now it's good because you didn't know that it was wack when it was coming up. But you got a lot of tattoos, but you don't look dirty either.

Oh, thanks bro. Could be honest. But wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait, wait.

No, no, I mean, I, I do you know what I'm saying? Like tattoo dirty people? You don't look dirty now with these dicks on me? No.

I love trash. It's a rat on the face. Yeah, but it's done, it's done well. You can tell you got like some expensive cool guy to do that tattoo.

Do I look, hey, you're his fiance. Do I look dirty? Like if I was hanging out with your fiance, you'd be like, yeah, it makes sense. You guys are cool, right?

We'd be cool, right? So one of my best friends is Zach Holmes from the new Jackass movie. Yeah, Zachass. Yeah, that's one of my best friends.

My other friend is Skinny Vinny. He's on Steve O's podcast, Wild Ride. And, you know, so when I introduce my fiance to them, like she's cool. She understands the dirty tattoos and the lifestyle.

Yeah, that's right. See, Steve O looked dirty. And now because he's so super sober, he can tell that he's not disgusting anymore. Right?

Somehow he did that. Somehow he doesn't, he's teeth, you know, he just doesn't look like, I would hug him now. I'd hug him the other day. But like 10 years ago, I would not hug that guy.

Well, you know, he's got his wife now. And you know, and he's clean. And it's just like, even for me, when I have a long day, she's like, you got to take a shower. And I'm like, okay, okay.

You were deodorant guy? I love deodorant. I have this, I used to never start good. You're a company.

Oh, you're gonna give me one? Yeah, you can have two. Oh, wow. There's different flavors and shit.

Whoa. They don't test on animals and stuff, so you know it's good. And it actually works. Why don't you just put it in your armpit?

Why don't you have to say go? I'm gonna say you're gonna do it. It's a bit racy? Okay, well then, survive it.

I don't understand what animals need to be put into this. It is so wrong what we do to animals. And I feel like in a hundred years, I do eat meat, unfortunately. When did you do the, when did you break from your parents?

So I was, so I used to be a hometown hero, professional skateboarder where I wasn't making a lot of money about a pro board and I'd shoot you. You had a pro board on who? Yeah, I'm the murderite skateboards. Murderite skateboards, it was not a company at a clear water.

Yeah, it was a little company, but I had a pro board. and before I was amateur and skating. And. He calls right now.

No, no, go for it. Well, you. We all know. Some people, but it's not really.

No, no, I was making probably like, yeah, yeah, I was probably making like two. I grew up going to skate park at Tampa contest skating a local contest. And then this was 2005. Miles, I'm allowed to I'm like a skate, a pro Nazi.

Yeah, but no, no, no, no, no. I was talking to the world. Yeah, I'm fucking breaking down. No, but you really were.

And I grew up watching you. Yeah, but what people got to understand is when you're skating and I would skate a bunch of skate contests and I grew up skating contests and then I would go to like ASR and surf expo and I would meet people and then they would, you know, give me free stuff or bring me on tour or do stuff like that. And it would start to gang up and I would go and I would be winning contests and doing these things. And then, you know, this small company is like, oh, I'm gonna give you a board.

I'm like, fuck. Didn't know what that really meant what that was. You know, so I took that and then I actually skated for a Steve O shoe company back in the day snow shoes. I don't remember that shoe company.

Steve O had a shoe company. Yeah. I say for Ontario means more police and prosecutors making sure my card doesn't get stolen. It means building new jails that keep criminals behind bars.

And it means there's no need to worry when I play at the park. We're making every corner of Ontario safer to make all of Ontario safer. That's how we protect Ontario for all of us. Learn how at ontario.ca.

Safer Ontario paid for by the government of Ontario. So I mean, I'm not going to say I was the greatest ever and I think a lot of it was because I was. I saw video of you skate. I've been checking you out.

Thanks, bro. Yeah. Try and you know, you get all your part. I can tell why era you're from as well.

Well, skateboarding has changed so fucking mind. No, that's why I can tell you're like, you can skate parks, but you skate to parks way before people skated parks and you can skate straight way before anybody skated parks and street. So you were a little bit mixed up in a world that wasn't really a thing that people were looking for. You were a little, you were like a vert dude on street, which is not a good idea.

No, not a good idea. See, for me, I grew up skating in a skate park called Cocoa Beach, skate park and they had like a cradle and big flow course. And then there was a little street course, but then I was on this team where every weekend we would go to local contests around Florida and Georgia. And I would, you know, compete in these contests when I was like really bad at when I was first getting started doing contests, you know, getting like last place and shit.

I start somewhere. It sounds like fun though, trying to run around going to contests and shit. I always thought they were more fun when he won as good. Like I, no one expected me to win.

It was pretty relaxing, you know, like I was just up there and I was waiting for him to call my name and then I'd give it everything I had and I didn't even really care when you started getting good and the people are watching and you're like, man, if I don't do good, I won't get my career. It seemed like, I mean, to be honest, that was when pressure started. But it's just so dumb. It's like when you go from like all age, you know, skating like 13 and up or 12 and up or whatever and then you go into a sponsor division, there's a whole lot more pressure.

You know, you're doing, you're winning all these contests in open ages, but then when you go to sponsor, it's like, oh, last place, maybe I shouldn't be. And coming over to America with like a holiday visa and trying to, you know, like you were, I was thinking if I did well, I could get a job and live in America. Yeah, but if I didn't do good, then I would be deported and I'd have to get a normal job and I remember thinking, because I had a normal job to save the money to get the plane ticket and I remember every time I took a normal job to get the money for the plane ticket, I made mental notes every day that you can't do this forever. You better figure out, you better figure out because I was soft, you know, like I feel like I don't know about soft.

It's funny because it's like if I love something, then it doesn't matter how hard it is. Come on. Then it's easy to do. Come on.

But if it's something that I don't like, like, you know, being a trolley boy in the supermarket or you mean like a career or all these other jobs that I've, I hated, they broke me. You know what I mean? It's because you weren't supposed to do it. Hate this so much that I don't even know why if I want to exist anymore.

And then, and then when I think when I look back at it, I'm like, you had like an hour lunch break. Like it was people were like smoking cigarettes. Nobody, like your job wasn't hot. Put the trolley in the trolley.

Like it was pretty easy. But now you work 24 hours a day, huh? Yeah. And then every gets turned off.

Don't you miss that nine to five? You're like, you know what, five, put in my phone away, nine to eight phone calls. I mean, not really because it just seems like every, I'm so used to living like this that it seems like prison. Yeah.

If I had to work in the supermarket, I feel like I'd be in jail. I always tell my fiance. I'm spoiled. We're very spoiled.

If this was all to end, I've had a real job in forever. But if this would all for this would all end for me, I don't know how I would handle it. I'd probably take a little bullet. No.

Yeah. I thought about it. Show started dropping down when I lost my job at Sirius. Like I was making over a million dollars a year.

And I was making, I don't know yet, but probably not, you know, like a hundred grand or something. And I was like, Oh my God. Like I said, over and then getting divorced and everything just started to fall off. I couldn't hire.

I had to fire somebody that worked here because I didn't have any more money to pay him. And I was like, if I pay him, the show goes under. And I kind of thought to have the studio in the house if I don't get rid of him. And then everybody hated me for that.

So I got even smaller. And I was like, wow, is this where it ends? But then I remembered that I thought that like, I don't know how many times because that's a bad thing about hitting my head a lot. I don't really remember everything anymore.

See, do you hear that baby? So I've been knocked out 12 times. I probably had, I don't even know. Well, that's pretty good.

30 concussions like, you know, I've had over 50. So, but you, my memory is so bad. And I have other stuff from hitting my head, you know, and it's like, no, no. Like you do hard drugs?

So I used to dabble in some drugs, nothing too hard. You start waiting to shoot. I smoke weed and I eat streams every day now. California.

Yeah, baby, come on. I want to have a point. Because look, I never had a problem. Do you drink?

I don't drink anymore. Yeah, what's the point? Right. You've got weed and mushrooms.

Do I do? I've got a rate. Like, do you have a fucking M3? No, no, no.

I have a MGC 43 Mercedes. Oh, okay. Yeah. Well, you could give me one if you want.

I was skating this Florida Bull Riders Pro and AM contest at the top of the game. Wait, you can ride bulls? Yeah, bulls. No bulls, bulls.

Florida Bull rider. What's a bull? A bull. A bull.

Yeah, like a park. A skate pop. Yeah. And PBR was sponsoring the event and Marty who owns Kona Skate Park doing the event.

And I was probably 18 at the time and I'm just drinking PBR like crazy, like crazy. And one of the photographers from Thrasher was there taking photos. So I go and I hit the cradle. I'm drunk as fucking.

I'm just like, oh, I'm going to go fucking 12 o'clock. So I tried to go all the way. I tried to go all the way up upside down and I fall from the top of the cradle all the way to the bottom on my neck. Yeah.

And it was one of those moments where I was so drunk, didn't remember to film nothing. So that was the greatest drunk moment for me. Good, that video. No, that was like 2007, bro.

I hate that. It's crazy. I know, right? Such a bummer.

But also probably a good thing though. Because there's a couple where I was like, that was so cool, but also I don't need anybody to see that. Well, I'm friends with Tommy Lee and I was talking to him and he's like if. And friends with his wife.

He had cameras back then. If you had cell phone cameras, bro, you would have been in so much trouble nowadays. Yeah. Because he'd be doing some wild stuff.

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, he's in trouble without the camera. How do you hang out with him because of your music?

I wrote a song called Tommy Lee and he found it and Brittany reached out to me and she's like, I heard the song you wrote about my husband. I was like, because there's something like Pamela Anderson remarks and that. I thought he was going to be mad, but I'm in Maui and Hawaii and he gets on the phone. He's like, bro, so best I've ever heard the hooks this, that, this, that.

And just from making music, he found me and then we started to become friends. Very weird. So we text and we call and we talk to each other all the time, but it's literally been, he's been on tour for three months and then I go on tour for three months and he goes on tour for three months and then I go on tour. And now he's coming back in like a week, but I'm leaving in a week.

So we haven't been able to hang out yet. You're constantly on tour. But it's literally, he's on tour. I'm on tour and it's like, do you like it?

The road. I hate it. I want to be home with my dog and my fiance and I love being on stage. But no, no, no, no.

Do you find it hard not to be a whore? No, for. Have you ever been a whore? Not really.

I've always been like a hopeless romantic. That's where we split. Yeah. We were hanging out.

Yeah, we. And then I got to go whore off. But look, everybody's. No one's perfect.

Nobody's perfect. But the thing is I've always been like that guy looking for love and serious relationships and like an idiot, you know, but yeah. But that was my mistake. Because I kept forgetting that I was a giant whore and they don't collide.

Yeah. Yeah, it's hard, man. You know? Not anymore though.

Not anymore. Come on. That's why I realize that I like wolf so much. I am supposed to be like completely by myself and every now and then you can go on tour.

And every now and then you can go in my cave and I'll give you a good going over. And then you got to go. I'll bite you on the neck a couple times and then you got to fuck off. No, I feel that.

I give a seat Dracula with the one where it's like the guy is he's that dude, the impaler guy and then he goes to a cave and then he escapes from Dracula. But then he realizes that there's some of these other dudes, like the person or something that's going to take him over and he's going to wipe his family out. And he's like, you know what? If I go up there turning to Dracula, I can save my kick.

Yeah. So he goes up there and makes the deal. That guy. That's me.

That's a good guy. And everyone in, someone stupid comes in my cave, rough them up, give him a good going over and then off they go. And then that way everybody's happy. Yeah.

Dude, dude, he's not like his cave didn't have Netflix in a pool. I have a pool. I mean, it's pretty cool. I don't get that lonely.

No mini ramp though. The guy, the owner said that I could have a mini ramp but this park has is not doing that well. Well, we got to get a girl. No, no.

I don't make that much money but if I, yeah, he said I could build one in the front yard. I just don't have any money. So I know, I know, I know the honor, OC ramps, bro. I'll connect you.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Sick.

I thought we had one at the front because it's like a big backyard. I was like, man, I, I'd be pumped. And then my son could skate it too. Yeah.

I'll connect you with the dude. Very sweet dude. You know, maybe. I want to make the track where it's like, berms and then, did you just giggle miles?

Somebody's got a kick in bro. Dude, like your dad might be Tony Hawk, but you're not. Alright. So just step back a little bit on where I go in skateboarding talk.

I just like that it went from a mini ramp to a palm track like right when you were about to get hooked up. You switched to a palm track. Did you see that? I went riffing.

It's a podcast. You know, you just say stuff. You throw it at the wall and see if they stick. Some fucking slip off.

Some don't. But you never know until you go. As I was saying, Chad, race track, berms, right? And then you go around the boom and then pump pumps so you can pump, keep speed and then go around and then we can race each other and wear like pads or like even have those like bumper things smash each other off the track.

So every after loop to. If you don't know, you know what? I never had the opportunity to as dumb as I am. I probably would have tried it.

Yeah. I thought the only bad the other day. Yeah. But did you see that?

Shaper back in the day. He's not the only one. Jimmy Wilkins. Yeah.

But a bunch of people have done that. So that's why Tony's based it. Yeah. It's like it's somewhere and he's like, I set it up and everyone's like, well, you know, me and everyone's me and talk about it and they all have fun.

Tons of people make it and they get their video and then one person takes, you know, means some colossal slam that is like helicopter to hospital. He's like, that's it. I'm done. Did you ever want to do it?

I'm the 13th person to do it. You did do it. I did it. I tell you at the start of this podcast, there's levels.

Shit, man. I'm going to be bored and I should just fucking. That's right. You fell into a trap.

You're talking to one of the greats. One of the greats. Not a lot of people are going to say it, but look, argue it. Call of.

Call of duty. Call of duty. What? I'm about to be a member.

Who's one of the greats? Ellis is one of the greats. That's it. What do you say about people thinking BAM did it 13th?

Oh. Yeah, I don't know. I don't care. It's not a pissing contest.

Okay. Yeah, you got you did it. I got four things, but I'm pretty sure I have this before here, but I don't care. I'm like, that doesn't mean anything.

Who can do it over and over again? Who can do it right now and who can go to rehab again? I'm good. I'm winning over here.
