Big news everybody, Elsmate, Big Daddy Jscakes has got New Merch and it's global. Hey Canada remember how you were like man I can't get T-shirts and boards, you can now. Hey Australia, all good day remember you were like mate what can I get a skateboard? You can, thejasonelas.com, New Merch, Elray Arthid this stuff.

I buy stuff off this guy and then he made this design for me. It's sick, it's a cowboy wolf and then I got me doing a horse with me on a skateboard. Sign by me Big Daddy Jscakes, you can get it all now. Canada, Australia, America, all good day, thejasonelas.com.

Get them now. Welcome to the show, it's love with Big Daddy Jscakes. Jim would have been more peeve. Ee bebe bebe bebe bebe bebe bebe bebe bebe bebe bebe bebe bebe bebe bebe bebe.

Yeah welcome to the live show where we're gonna be asked a bunch of questions. Strange thing is I can be wrong but like I don't think anyone that's got anything negative to say on social media is gonna be on the live chat to actually ask me a question because they don't want an answer. They just want to go down, down, down, down, down. Why are you so sad?

Maybe you should work on yourself and find out that the real thing, the real answer to life is just live it. Just live it baby. Hydration. Key.

That's electrolytes. I don't even really know if electrolytes do anything. People say electrolytes are important but do I know that for sure? Not.

Do I feel more hydrated when I drink electrolytes versus water? I think so but I don't know. It could be an optical illusion you know? I don't know.

I remember at one point I was drinking, what is it? What's the water? Propelled? Nah.

Dude you're so unhealthy. Just that's your go to. Is it Propell? No it's not Gatorade.

Tell me. It's alkaline water. So there's alkaline water you get at the store that's like nah but then there's like my boxing coach a long time ago had an alkaline water thing connected to so it was like actual alkaline water and you could add more or less alkaline and if you did too much alkaline you would get diarrhea because your body had to adjust to it and it was like the body soaks up the water so you don't pee it out. He swore by it.

I still don't know you know. I used to drink a gallon of it every day. I don't know. I don't know what's really really well.

You know what I know? You know what I know? I don't know. So I don't know.

I was just the kill Tony thing came out last night and I watched it and I was like man. My girlfriend was like what do you mean? I was like man it wasn't bad but it's not that funny. She's like you don't think you're that funny I'm like no not really.

Everybody's real nice everyone seems to think it's good. I don't know. I know I got a long way to go and who knows if I actually get there. But it wasn't bad.

I didn't do bad. Just I don't know. It's alright. I think that's the thing I was talking about yesterday where it's like when things are good I'm like yeah when things are bad I'm like yeah it's pretty even keeled you know.

Maybe it's a safety precaution that I have locked in because if things get too good and I get too excited about it maybe I'll do something silly you know or maybe my ego. Maybe I'm keeping my ego in check you know. It's like you did well on Kiltoni. I don't think I killed on Kiltoni you know.

But if you just I mean if I don't have you watched it but if you watch it you know Tony goes that's the best minute you've done. It's the only minute I've done. You don't even know that I didn't do a minute the last time. You don't know me.

You don't remember me from last time. What did you do last time? I talked about being abused as a child and Dr. Phil said which person did you like the best and that clip went viral.

But you did a minute before that? No I did not. You just came out and you got a bill you got a deal. Here's what happened right?

First thing this is how it goes. Tony Hawk and Jason Ellis had a podcast Hawk vs Wolf. Tony called it Hawk and the Wolf because he doesn't know it. But they were like we're going to have you want Brianna's friend my manager's friends with Tony Hinchcliffe.

That's how that's kind of working out. And you want me to get him? I don't get jealous to get him. If anybody's watching you aren't sure what's happening right now because you don't want to show regularly rumble bean is a menace.

You notice how I didn't say the F word we are live on YouTube. Yeah I'm going to use a genuine menace. Are you going to stay or are you going to go? Anyway, he's he might be fired from the show permanently because he just has to do like an entry and then he has to go and then no doubt he want to come back and like 20 minutes to ruin it again.

It's just like he's like the president of the company. He's just checking on me or something. Anyway, it was like we they want you to be on the panel and this is back when I was on the podcast with Tony Hawk where I was doing guest spots on big podcasts where it's a weird thing man because I had a show you know it's like three million listeners a day. It's pretty successful.

I was pretty good skateboarder. I wasn't the best skateboarder but I was like top 10 in the world for a long time but I was top 10 in the world with skateboarding was like man nobody really cares. You don't know and first skating has never been that popular. I'm just a guy you know I get it just a guy.

It's okay you know the people with my peers they know I was good. I know I was good. That's it. That's all you can you know I mean at one point when it was all said and done the greatest thing I got from skateboarding was like it's good and I loved it.

It was fun. That's it for pro model signature. I don't care. I don't care.

It doesn't matter. Hey man you ripped. Thank you. I don't care.

And I know this because I've been in this. So I'm doing these podcasts you know I mean I'm on your mum's house but I'm not on your mum's house. I'm on a bird crisis cooking show. I'm not in.

I was on Tiger Belly. I wasn't on Tiger Belly. Here's a little story. When I was on Tiger Belly we walked into the front of the house where Bobby Lee greeted us.

Tony comes up and Miles comes with us because Miles wants to meet Bobby Lee. He goes Jason welcome to the show to Miles. Have you seen Miles? I mean he is a Caucasian.

He's a fair headed Caucasian. Has hair. I have a wolf tattooed on my head and I'm probably like 50 pounds bigger than him. You look like Miles security.

Right. Well that's Bobby Lee didn't know who I was and I'd already met Bobby Lee. That's how insignificant I am and it's okay. It's okay.

So then those people will ever have me on their show. The only time I'm on the show is because Tony Hawk's there. So at one point having Jason Ellis on Kill Tony with Tony Hawk because we have a podcast that worked. For some, I can't remember what it was with the dates or Tony could do it.

I don't know how it worked where Tony could do it and I couldn't do it. Really rumble bean? He gets one more chance. He's going to get as many chances as he wants.

He is the president of the Jason Ellis show. So anyway Tony does the show and this is a good show too. It's like Harlan and I think even Ian was there. So then it's like you're going to do it by yourself.

I was like wow cool. And then we go, I'm in Austin. I think I was doing comedy or something. But Tony who's friends with Brianna, text Brianna goes, it's Jason got a minute.

And Brianna goes, Jason do you have a minute? And I go, wait, right now? I thought I was on the panel and she's like, no, it's just one minute. And I'm like, no, I don't.

I watch Kill Tony. I used to listen to it when I had a car all the time. And I know that I didn't at the time. This is how this is a good time for me.

I'm going to say something nice about myself, which is probably should probably should. At the time, I didn't have a one minute joke. And I was like, I'm not going to write a one minute joke 45 minutes before I go and kill Tony. I am very aware of Kill Tony and how if you do one minute poorly, it's not a good look.

And I'm not a guy that's been in comedy for a couple of days. Like this is my actual career. I'm trying to make it going up and bombing on Kill Tony is not something that I'm interested in. So I told Brianna, no, I don't have one minute.

And then Tony was like, oh, it's okay. We'll just do a quick interview with you. So it was very nice of him considering I told him I don't have a minute. And he was like, you can still come on, just come out and we'll talk to you.

And Adam Ray, who is was Dr. Phil at the time was like, you know, you just come out and talk about being bi or whatever and we can make some jokes about you. And I was like, cool. And somehow I think it was the person that was before me had been abused.

And when I came out, Tony said something about me being potentially abused and he looked at me and I looked at him like dude, and he was like, come on, man, it's funny. So I rolled with it. And that's when that happened. So I didn't really, yeah, I'm glad I did, but then afterwards I had, I went to the bar with Tony and he gave me some advice about how to make one minute sets and three minutes sets and he's like, it's handy to have those.

So you can like transition from a longer joke and just have these little ones, little tags. And I was like, cool. And then I really started to write little jokes at shorter time jokes. And I got myself into three minute jokes so that I could audition at the comedy store and at the Hollywood improv.

The comedy store, you have to put your name on a list that are like 300 people and they picked 12 and I never got picked. And then I knew somebody at the Hollywood improv and I got up, I actually got up and I had worked on three minutes and it passed and I got passed to do the five minute set and then the five minute set got me booked. And the thing is if you get booked at the Hollywood improv, it doesn't really mean anything. Like now I'm passed at the Hollywood improv.

I've done three sets in the last six months total. Also I am not available most of the time because I'm on the road. So we have little circumstance that I'm in. But yeah, then I got a one minute set and I did, I did, recently it'll be well and I did it in one minute and I wasn't capable of that six months ago.

Thanks to Tony Hinschwiff. So very grateful and everybody seems to be very positive about it. I saw somebody on Twitter go, wow. Fred, you're hanging out with Tim Paul and Rob Schneider, yikes.

And I was like, wait, like you pick the line up. You realize I'm not Tony Hinschwiff, right? Like I didn't book Rob Schneider. But that's also this thing where I'm starting to understand the darkness of social media and how you guys have this thing.

Like I don't know what's going on in the chat right now, but I'm assuming that it's not a bunch of people being negative or are they? Oh, chat's all positive. Right. Because none of you are on it's a free show and the people that hate me on Twitter and Instagram aren't even on here because they don't want an answer.

They don't want to ask the question and receive an answer. They just want to shoot me down. That's what everybody does. And when you shoot people down all day on social media, you're not a very happy person, which is why I just, you know, I want to lift weights, feel good after I lift some weights, eat some food and hang out with my pets and I, you know, praise, you know, whoa, or you pray to not even business, man.

It doesn't matter. But also, if you pray to a specific person, good for you. And if you don't, good for you. And if you sleep with guys or girls, good for you.

And if you're a Republican or a Democrat, good for you. I don't care. And we just all care. But you don't really care.

That's the thing that throws people into this spiral where it's like you hear everybody coming at you and you think everybody cares and everybody hates you. Nobody really cares. You know, you just say stuff because you're bummed out. You're negative and you're a bummer.

That's it. So does anyone have any questions? Oh, man, I got questions. First up, somebody asks, is that your new deck behind you?

No, that's Tim Poo's board. Which is hilarious. It's uncanceable, which is, I was like, that's funny. Because I feel like you can't be canceled if you're not in the game.

I posted that the other day. I said Denzel Washington posted that. Is anyone mad at me for being associated with Denzel Washington? Yeah, but it's funny because people are like, it's a racist cross.

And I'm like, it's independent logo. Independent chunks a bit around for like 50 years. Like, what are you talking about, dude? Sorry, it's just one of Tim's boards.

And I think more than ever I can kind of relate to the, because I don't really believe in cancel culture. You know? I think it's weird when you start saying that, it's a weird road to go down. I just also you, I look, it already happened to me.

Some of you probably don't realize this, but I used to be a very successful radio host. And it's gone. You know? I mean, enormous amount of debt.

And the podcast makes zero money. Don't listen to me. It doesn't make any difference. Nothing is going to change.

Tomorrow is going to be tomorrow. Hopefully I'm alive for it, you know? I got my friends, you know, I still got a key to Tony Hulksram. Tony Hulks still my friend.

I can still go to Tony Hulksram. That's pretty cool. I can see her horse whenever I want. That's ridiculously awesome.

My girlfriend loves me and she's hot. She's been paying cakes this morning. I'm a pretty lucky guy, you know? My cat loves me and he's actually sitting down and looks like he's going to actually do the rest of the show like that.

So that's cool. Things are pretty cool. I don't really, you know? The Tim Paul thing is like, look, I don't know, I don't know what politics is.

I can't be bothered to like try to understand it. Every time I try to listen, I go, oh, and then it's kind of like real housewives. Like, I'm sure it's interesting to some people, but I just don't care. So I kind of just drift it off.

I just skate. You know? I'm a pro on a skateboard company and I get boards made. I'm pumped.

That's all I know. Yeah, speaking of that, I'm going to put the link in the chat for anybody who is going through it also be obviously on the whenever we release this at the podcast. But if you can talk about your new merchants out because we've had a bunch of people ask about it. Oh, yeah.

Well, it's cool that everyone's asking about it. Yeah, I'm super excited about it because it's El Rey. So this guy, I knew a girl tattoo girl and she's like, you should see this guy, you like cowboy stuff. Check out this guy's t-shirts and I looked at his Instagram and he makes all these like cowboy shirts like with chicks with cowboy boots on and and I was like, oh, cool.

So every now and then I would buy a t-shirt from this dude. And then out of nowhere, he hit me up and he goes, hey, man, my friends tell me you're pretty cool. And I was like, oh, yeah. And he's like, yeah, man, like they are freaking out that you're wearing my t-shirt.

And I was like, well, I think your t-shirts are awesome, man. And I don't really buy stuff, but I mean, if it's the only t-shirt I wear, it was the only t-shirt I wear still to this day that isn't a t-shirt that somebody gave me. So I really like his art. And then we got the talking to the sober guy and then out of nowhere, he sent me this as a photo and I go, man, a wolf with a cowboy hat sick.

And then I'm like, wait a minute, it says wolf made on it. And I'm like, it says wolf made on it. He's like, yeah, man, I made it for you. I'm like, can I use it?

He's like, that's why I did it. And I was like, no way. I'm going to make it a t-shirt and a hoodie. And then things are, you know, like I said, things are a bit tight.

So like the last merch that I had when I sold it all, I didn't have enough money to order another run of stuff. So I haven't had stuff in the shop for a while and I've got no skateboards left. So I made these a long time ago, not a long time ago, but a couple months ago. And then I also, he helped me with the skateboard.

So the skateboard graphic and this t-shirt and the hoodie was all ready to go. It was just a matter of getting the money to give to the people to make the stuff to sell it. And then Paul Schmidt, who I love, who made my boards, he went under, which is really sad. And he's a good dude and he's been making skateboards for a dude.

Like as long as the skateboarding has been around for me, like Schmidt sticks, we're talking 40 years, this guy's been making skateboards, the best skateboards. He's like, he's just a good guy, he's still skates. And he went under because that's the times, man. Things are hard for everybody.

Skateboarding as a whole is pretty bad, you know, all the way around to the point where people like Paul Schmidt have gone under. So it's really sad. So he went under right when I didn't have any money to order anymore boards. And then I'm asking around some people here and there and then a friend of mine, Colin McCabe, was like, did you know Max defor make skateboards?

And I was like, Max defor, you guys probably don't know Max defor, Max is a pro skateboarder. We used to compete with each other and I've been good friends with him for two decades as a pro skateboarder, he's a Canadian guy and he was like, yeah man, that guy makes skateboards and he sells them to everybody. So I call Max and Max is, you know, the board is a little bit more expensive so it's less profit from me, but he has a connection with selling stuff internationally. And those of you that might know, I have never been able to sell stuff to Canada or Australia.

So that's been a bit of a bummer because I do receive a lot of messages going, hey man, I can't get it, I'm in Canada and I'm like, this is nothing I can do, man, which we now can't. Well, that's the thing. And you can do it and you can do it. So now it is international.

So now if you're a Canadian or an Australian or wherever you are in the world, you can buy my merch, which is incredibly exciting because that one did bug me where I get a lot of messages going, oh hey, Tiddly-Doh, I want to bar it tonight. I'm like, I can't give you a boy, it's Canada. So that was kind of annoying. So now I can and I think it's not up yet, right?

Oh, yeah, they're up. Yeah, the boards and shirts and everything, they can buy. Wait, you don't know now. Somebody asked me today when it's up and I was like, soon.

Yeah, I think it went live this morning. I'm pretty sure. I know Brianna's listening so she'll know for sure my bad everybody. Brianna I love you.

Please let me know. Well then. Anyway, so yeah, you can get it all now. The Jason L's dot com you can get my new shirts.

You can get my new hoodies and you can get my new skateboard and I'm driving down to where the skateboards are being shipped and made tomorrow and I'm going to sign them all so they will all be signed by me. That's right. Could have had an intern do it, but he's doing it himself because it cares. I could have had an intern do it.

It's too late. You already agree. I know, but that's that's that's not cool. Like somebody fake signs it.

Hey, super chat. Brian McBride. Brian McBride. Did it do you the man, bro?

How much money to give me 10 bucks? All right. Well, I mean, that's like four donuts in California, but hell yeah. Yeah, I'm going to get him out of here.

Your minute was hilarious at Cap City and on Kill Tony, obviously did longer at Cap City. Do you ever hear from Renato anymore? I saw him on the CG or CJI two stream. I don't know what that is.

And it reminded me of him being ridiculous on your show years ago. Who? Renato Renato. For those in the chat that don't know, Jason has had more concussions than most people could ever possibly have in their lifetime.

Yeah, who's Renato Renato Renato. And who's Renato? Great question. Hey, who's Renato everybody?

Somebody know. Oh, wait. Are you talking about the greatest you two guy in the world? And Hennato?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I haven't talked to him for a long time. I saw him in the Hollywood Hills hiking. He looks good.

He looked. He looked like he got fit. He's been out of shape. Yeah, he's a cool dude.

Well, the thing is, the show now is just me and the Patrons with Tully and guests are less inclined to do the Patreon because it's a weird thing. They think the free podcast is a bigger deal. More people see it and it's like, yeah, maybe. But also, I think these days people watch podcasts in one minute clips on social media.

I don't think people listen to the entire podcast. I don't know. It seems like when you have the attention thing for podcasts, everybody's podcast, not a lot of people listen from start to finish. That's kind of a thing for podcasting.

I think maybe Kill Tony might be a little bit different because, you know, there's like a banger at the end and people want to watch it. Hopefully. I don't know. Again, I think people sometimes just skip around to the parts they like, you know?

Yeah, yeah, which is cool. But yeah, Nato is awesome. But I haven't had him on. I don't really want to have if I'm going to have somebody on this show, it would be more of like an Andrew Huberman or somebody who's like, you know, like an Olympian or somebody who works in sobriety or somebody who you know, like a health and fitness doctor sort of thing, somebody that can help make your life better.

Speaking of friends of the show, Bill Bouch from Patreon asks, have you had any more contact with mayhem any chance of a return of mayhem? Monday? Yeah. Yeah, I talked to Jason all the time.

Yeah. And he's been on a couple of the episodes that we've had more. He is going to be on my comedy show October 21st of the Comedy Store. He's going to be doing stand up.

So he's trying to be a stand up. Yeah, he's been hitting Mike's, right? Yeah, that's what he's saying. So yeah.

So yeah, he'll be on. But that's like more of a again, it's like, you know, now that I've changed the show, it's like having guests is like something that I'm just not that interested in. Unless it's like, like I said, somebody I don't even care if they're famous. It's like, you know, it needs to be like something that I can learn.

I'm interested about learning. I got to tell you, man, doing the show, doing the show by myself. I'm very excited about doing the show. And after I do the show, I'm like still happy and excited.

I'm not trying to like, I like doing Jason. I'll show just, I like doing these ones by myself because it's me, my own head. I like it. Yeah.

And if you don't, well, so fair, that's OK. I just don't, you know, I try to think like what would be what would be suitable for this podcast. And like I said, it's like an Andrew Huberman type where I'm like, teach me stuff. You know, there's this lady.

She's like crazy fit and she's like. She knows about all these things like food and what is it? Bugs in your stomach. What is it called?

She was on that show Ryan show. She was like, people have things in their stomach. What is it? That's not parasites.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because she goes, most people have parasites and he's stomach in their stomach.

And he goes, you think I do? And she goes, for sure you do. And he's like, for sure I do. And she's like, yeah, like the diet or this or whatever.

If you traveled and he's like, how do I get them out? And she's like, I'll tell you how to get them out. And I'm like, I want her to come on here and tell me how to get them out. Because if anyone's got them, I got them.

You know, I know that that might be an irrational thing. But if Sean Ryan is almost anything, it doesn't matter. He's doing just fine. Yeah.

But I like that people like that where I'm like, I really want to know how to get parasites out. I really want to know if I have parasites because I need all I need to be on the cutting edge of health and fitness because getting older, I'm getting sore, you know, like when I get up in the morning, it's not cool to walk. And I would like to know how to do more things where it doesn't hurt as much and I can keep going and have more energy because I'm trying to be full of beans. I'm trying to do a lot of stuff.

And sometimes I'm like, man, I don't really want to do it. And I'm like, you know, you got to get mentally, you got to go mentally. Nah, mate, I'm going anyway. You know, and I'm like, I would like to like be really excited about it.

That's the other thing, those BP five, one five sevens. I ran out of it and I miss it. That worked because that was like a thing. I poked my belly and I'd be like, and I'm like, let's go.

And I'm like, I could have really done with that after Washington, very tired after that, the lack of sleep and the stress. It took a toll. I've been trying to, you know, I've had a couple of days home where I'm like, I'm going to go out. I'm like, I'm not going to go anywhere.

I'm like, I'm going to go to the gym. I'm like, I'm going to work out in the backyard. Like it's not I have not been full of beans, so to speak. What's the chat saying?

We just got a $10 super chat from duck gibbons. Oh, yeah, that's a full stack of donuts. Hey, amigo is my dad and I run a motorcycle shop in Austin, Texas called resurrected Moto. We also built a showroom and have started doing mics next time.

Jason's in ATX. We'd love to put on a proper show. Yeah. Nice.

Yeah. Book me. Yeah. Somebody also has how much to get you to do a show in Fresno.

And I was just going to put a five grand, but I didn't wait. That's a lot. So I guess there's a skateboard shredder news. And they said, bisexual, post-gateboard, Jason, ours is no longer live conservative values make more sense to me.

I don't know if that's exactly what I said, but someone's like concerned saying, Hey, man, you know, are you still by? Are you a part of the community? And I'm like, look, I'm not, I'm just not active in it. I have no interest in it.

You know, like, you can't be, I don't know if it's possible to be that gay and then not gay. You know, it's like, I think I don't think it's gross. I have no problem with with the community. I'm always going to be a supporter of the community, you know, because I know people that are gay and it's like a real thing.

You know, I think maybe my trans opinion has changed a little bit where I obviously have still a supporter of the trans community, but when you say trans women are women, I'd be more inclined to say trans women are trans women. You know, but I had a discussion with somebody who was actually hanging out with Tim Poula was like, no, dude, they're dudes. And I'm like, that seems mean. Like, I don't know why you would say that.

So again, this thing where it's like you're with Tim Poula and like, well, I think was at the dinner table and he supported my argument. So I don't know how bad he is when it comes to that. Another super chat, $10 from Lady Tron. Yeah.

Yeah, I really like the logo. Wait, can't wait to get the hoodie. Yeah, I'm going to turn some hoodies. I mean, please get all that stuff because that would there's a chance that if it sells well, that we will start, we're in a constant rotation and that I could go to Costa Rica because I was too scared to do that dropping.

So can I have to text messages or is this cheating? No, yeah, it's I told the Patreon to just send it in so I can keep the chat. But because it'd be better if it was on the chat. Yes.

That's why we're free on YouTube today for the chat. Right. Last year after texting your question, you responded well, blocked me and said, your podcast, my question was inappropriate. Is this show really asked Jason anything?

Pretty deep. Yeah. Why? I was just so mysterious.

A quick question that also leads us to another plug and I promise no more after that. Patreon. Somebody asked what's the situation with Tully, which we've answered many times, but it's a perfect opportunity to plug the Patreon. Yeah.

We're doing a show today. Tully's on and then tomorrow we're doing a show to Jason and I'll show with Tully on Patreon is two shows a week every Tuesday and Wednesday. You can see Tully right here. Hey, Ella, show awesome show.

Where can I get one? Really? Thejsonellis.com. Do I have to post that to say it's in the chat?

It's everywhere. Everybody go to thejsonellis.com, particularly it's a merge. It's weird. Somebody asked you go to a meetings.

Oh, yeah. All the time. Do you still talk to rude dude? No.

Hope he's good though. I know we've addressed it a couple of times. Somebody asked what happened with the father grind thing. Yeah.

Father grind was the guy that was the the booking to get ad sales for the J. Celsho and Hawk versus Wolf. It was pretty much his idea. And I was like, you know, I think it was originated from me teaching people how to skate and arguing that I'm better at teaching people how to drop in than Tony Hawk.

And then I'm a good teacher. And this guy was like, you should do a trick tip video on how to be a beginner, you know? I think it was also because I was helping that. He wanted to skate.

So I was teaching him how to skate a little bit. And then he was like, you know, he could sell boards and then it sort of got into cell shoes, pads, trucks. And I was like, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo. You know, because I think like he was not aware of like how dead skateboarding is.

And I was like, whoo, I don't know about that. He's like, no, trust me, it'll work. And I was like, OK, like I'm not putting any money in it. And it was like, you pay me to do it.

I think it was 10 grand. And I was like, well, yeah, I'll do it for 10 grand. I do pretty much anything for 10 grand, especially back then. And then and then it turned into the sales of father grind needed to pay the 10 grand back.

And I'm like, wait, did you let me that? No, I gave it to them. I'm like, but then why do you need it back? He's like, I don't know how it worked, but it didn't make sense to me.

But it was a weird, it was like, that's right. The completes instead of selling the decks. Because I was like, if you sell the decks, they'll sell. But I guess he took a bunch for a complete.

And I'm like, no one's going to buy the completes. It just that's just my opinion. And sure enough, it didn't do that well. But if you sold the boards, just solo, they did sell.

And I don't know how well the video went. You know, it was more like a doing interaction with Ian, because he was learning to skate. It was fun. I liked it.

But yeah, it just kind of died. And then there was the money thing got weird. The guy got weird. And then he kind of did some stuff where Tony didn't like it.

And that kind of ended the podcast. Like Tony was like, I don't want to really be involved in this. If there's going to be like drama. And I just said, we didn't think people would get involved with me.

And it's like all of a sudden they're like, you know, a part owner of me. You know, I was just like, what is happening? Like, what is this father? It's not a big deal.

It doesn't do anything. It doesn't make any money. Like it failed, you know? And then, you know, when the whole first was wolfing ended, it's not like it's nobody's fault.

But that was definitely a big bump in the road where Tony was like, what the hell? And you know, I don't want to get into it all. But there was there was drama. And when there's drama and you're also not making any money and you're Tony Hawk, you just you just step out.

So the father grind thing just became I just didn't want to be associated with that particular person. So if I was to keep father growing, that would mean that I would still be in business with that guy. And I was just like, I'd rather just move on and cut myself out of that. So I just cut myself out of it and went back to making my boards by myself.

And yeah, I sort of like a video of teaching people how to skate. It's kind of I don't know. Sometimes people can watch videos and learn how to do stuff. I just I don't know.

For me, it's like a hands on thing, you know, like people have brought up like, why don't I do boxing video stuff? And I'm like, I guess maybe and like you like do a live camera thing. And I tell you what you're doing, but it's just not the same as me being there. It's just I can really teach you how to be good at something.

If I'm there, I've told people how to drop in. They can't really skate. But if they were if they that's the other thing, like, you know, when I teach people how to drop in, I usually kind of catch them a few times if they fall off. If I'm watching you and you fall, I can't catch you.

I'm just looking at you on my phone. Well, you destroy yourself. So it doesn't really work. So yeah, that thing that thing failed.

What's it? When it comes to that? Got two super chats from Patreon members Casey Barton said towards the donut fun. Appreciate it, Casey.

And ends Omar said, no question. Just supporting young wing long-time listener from faction days. Hope I was good. Thanks, dude.

Yeah, things are awesome, man. Yeah, things are things of I think they've really been better. You know, trying to think of like, you know, the only time they've been better is when I've just been like, high and delirious. So I don't know if that really counts, you know, where you know when you're like, Oh, it's a high.

That I felt like that was pretty good. And now I'm just like, I don't know. Hi, I did it again. I'm like, it's pretty good.

And it's not the same. I'm not going to lie. It's not as good, you know, we just like, Oh, I don't like out of my mind. And everybody's got boobs.

It's pretty cool. And now I'm like, eh, it's pretty good. But like my dinner, you know, shows doing good selling merch. I'm on the road doing comedy.

I love comedy. I've been working real hard at it. I'm doing it. I did kill Tony and it came out last night.

Everyone seems to think it's OK. That's cool. I know I got to, you know, I want to do a special now. And I feel like after kill Tony, like I don't even know if I can like, I feel like my one minute joke is like part of my set where I'm like, it's a dead now.

Like, can I not do that anymore at all? I feel like I should just move on. I mean, that's part of the stuff that you're working on just because the stuff you want to get down to the stuff you kind of want to burn. So it makes sense to put it in there still.

Well, if anybody complains about a minute, then they're like, Well, there's definitely a lot longer version of that whole thing. Yeah, exactly. So. Yeah, super chat.

Pacifico Clara donuts are sugar coated lies. Ten dollars. Wait, what? I'm gonna ruin them for me and buy them for me.

They are great. They're no lie. They're fat. Be right back.

I got to go kill the one guy. He's not going to do it. He's going to keep going. Sup guys.

Have a good show. Miss the livestock by 30 minutes and cut clients. Wi-Fi by question is Jason. Do you ever miss writing Moto Dave Rothgory from Colorado?

I do miss Moto. Yeah, I do. I do think that Moto is not off the table for me. I just think financially having a motorcycle and it's not just having a motorcycle.

It's having things to fix the motorcycle and then having a truck to put the motorcycle in the back of. That's money. So it's not that bad. And I'm not don't get me wrong.

It's funny. That's what I'm saying. I mean, I'm in a predicament where I was really sad about it and the predicament has not changed whatsoever. And I'm pretty happy about everything.

It's like just how you look at things. If I had if I wasn't in debt and I was making money, I would buy a truck and a dirt bike and I would go every now and then. I totally would because I've also got like a common sense where I kind of, you know, if I saw a job, I was like, oh, I could probably do that again. I'd be like, yeah, or, or you could not do that.

You know, and I just never was equipped with that. I'd be like, you got to do it. You know, and then next thing and I did it, then I destroy myself. So yeah, I would love to ride my though again.

It's just a matter of I got to, I got to pay off two things. Ha ha. Taxman and this person I had a relationship with once I pay them off and then obviously still have a job that, because dude, if you ride dirt bikes, that's money, man. You know, like that's those bikes are like 10 grand, you know, and I, the funny thing when I was rich, I would, I would, I would, I wouldn't buy a bad truck.

I would, you know, get a new Dodge Ram or some, you know, I would just like lease some ridiculous truck, which is just, you take that stuff for granted, man. You know, like I said, just get a truck, get a Porsche, get a, what you need a car, get a new car too about a chicken car, a daughter's car, like everyone gets a car, everyone gets a bear suit, like just out of control. And now I'm like, you know, tomorrow I just, I'm making a bunch of money again. I'd be like, I'm just going to get like a little truck, you know, that fits the bike in there and it takes me to the track.

That's all it's for. Or maybe helping somebody move. I don't need a sound system in my truck. I just need it to like not break down on the way to Temecula.

So it's not out of the question, things are getting better, you know, financially and I still own a piece of liquid death. One day they'll sell it and when they do, hopefully that'll be enough to like pay off my debts. And then by then I'll probably be a huge comedian. I mean, I'm probably huge already because I did one minute on Kill Tony last night.

And as you all know, that is when you become a star. So I would say probably by the time this podcast ends, I will be rich and famous. Just a reminder that we cannot use some of the excellatively might use to discuss this. Somebody asked about the car update.

So if you briefly wanted that. Wait, why would I be, why would I, that's the other thing? I don't care. It's fine.

I really, I don't care. OK, it's not a, I don't like I can tell Brianna's Brianna is a very persistent person. And sometimes her persistence makes people angry. And but it comes from a good place.

And I appreciate it. And then the other guy that's doing all this stuff with the car that is like, I didn't, I know I had to pay BMW money that I really can't afford, which is why I never got my windshield fixed or a bunch. I do my car was falling apart, but it was, I'm not taking it anyway to get fixed. If it still starts, I'm just going to take it.

It's like, you know, like it's my people don't understand, like you're making millions of dollars. And then you and then you've got reverse money. You know, we're talking about bankruptcy was like on the table for probably like two years, where I was like, is it this month? And it's like, no, I keep fighting.

I keep doing it. You can make it. I'm like, OK, I'll keep making it. And you know, I'm like, I'm not lying.

Like I don't have any money and everything I get. I'll give it to you. You know, like I'm doing the best that I can. Like at one point, she let me pay her less because I can't afford to pay her the monthly thing that that was agreed upon.

I'm like, I'll get it to you. Am I fair enough? You know, but it's, but it's, you know, now the cars being gone for, I don't know, I think like four months, maybe longer. I don't even know.

I time is kind of getting my head a lot. But the car, every now and then I've seen a photo and I'm like, whoa, it looks crazy. But yeah, it's not it's supposed to come last week. It's supposed to come this week.

Now it might be this weekend. I don't really care because it's like if I worry about it, or when's I gonna get it? It's just it's just it's like, you know, like, when are you going to be famous? When are you going to get a raise?

When are you going to fall in love? When are you going to get out of text? It's like, dude, just relax. Today's the day.

Today's all you got, you know, and that's it. I got today and today's pretty cool. I got a show, it's a bunch of people. I got like a bunch of money for doughnuts.

Anything so bad, you know, I'm pro skateboarder again. I got I want I'm going skate tomorrow. I got to keep going. I like going to Washington kind of threw me off the whole program.

Like I'm like, I'm gonna get back in there. And my board was too big. The booties are making me a short abort man. The booties board that's coming out is sick.

Oh, yeah, somebody was asking about that, you know, I got the graphic. I didn't know because I didn't have Wi-Fi at one point or something. And I guess they sent me the graphic and he was like, man, I guess you didn't like it. I'm like, what do you mean?

He's like, I sent you the graphic. You didn't say anything. I was like, oh, man, I don't think he likes it. I'm like, I didn't see it.

And he's like this. And I was like, whoa, this is sick. And he's like, Oh, cool. Then I'm like, yeah, run it.

It's awesome. So I'm just going through the shape thing size. I got I went a little too big and the board was a little too big. So now I'm going back down to the other board right now.

I've I've got two boards left that Jimmy gave me. So I've got boards escaped. So I just I just want to I just want to go back to Tony's and skate because I still have my legs about me. But I am sore from jumping at the booney's headquarters down into this quarter pipe that I couldn't make the jump.

I couldn't skate down it because I just jumped down and it hurt me. I was like, man, I can't land in the transition. I'm in my hips out and I did some of my back and I'm a bit buckled. But whatever I always buckled, the cold plunge is broken.

I can't get it fixed and the people that plunge will no longer respond to my man. The mighty have fallen. But apparently you can get an ice engine for 500 bucks. So, you know, it's not that bad.

It's OK. You know, I put an ice pack on my head. But when I don't care, it's fine. Yeah, but the car's not ready.

And I don't know when it's going to be ready. Someone said Saturday, but I also heard two weeks ago that it was ready last week. And so it's just, you know, when it's going to be ready when it's ready. And then when it's ready, the most exciting thing about that is going over to my son's house because my son now has the same car as me, but a newer model.

And it would have been nicer than my car if I hadn't have had all the stuff done to my car that has been done to my car. So once my car is done and I do get it, I'm going to my son's house and I'm going to call and be like, Hey, man, come outside. And they'll be like, Hey, Tiger, do you like apples? He probably doesn't even know that.

And I'll be like, Have you like these apples? Someone said, Do I miss the a six K? Yes, I do. I loved that truck.

That was the greatest truck that I've ever seen. Let alone own own still never seen a better truck in my professional opinion. Thanks, Rancion. The Moto question.
