I said, bro, you can hop in the live right now, bro. So he does. He hopped in, bro, and we started talking. I said. And he's like, no, these people say I'm a scammer this and that, blah, blah, blah.
So I said, you know what? Let's set up a date, bro, for a week from now. We'll come back in, whoever you have blocked just by him being in my life, bro, we were at, like 800 people.
[00:01:53] Speaker A: Wow.

And everybody that he was blocked happened to be in my life. And they were just blowing him up with questions. So I was like, no, hold on, guys. We'll set it up for a week.
He'll come in the box, whatever. We can take turns swapping out people from the box. So we did that. So sure enough, bro, here comes this week, and he messages me what time. I said, man, let's do four in the afternoon, all right? So, boom, it was like 330. Hey, we're going to still go live. Yeah, bro, we're going to go live. Don't worry about it. So, boom. 04:00 I started up, bro, the moment I sent him that invite, bro, and he hops in. Like, that skyrocketed. And people that were just viewing us, bro, I'm like, man, what?
So then everybody just came, bro. Started asking questions, bro. But why is he scamming and this and that? I'm like, man, bro, that's crazy. And I'm just sitting back hearing it, bro. I had to cancel people out, bro, because, man, they were just, like, dogging this guy, bro.
[00:02:53] Speaker A: Oh, my God.
[00:02:54] Speaker C: And I was like, man, bro, this is some hardcore. And bro, to this day, bro, you can search up that name, bro. And it's just like, everybody. There's also a guy right now, bro, shytown, that bumps head with that dude real bad, bro. And, man, the dirt they find on this guy, bro, is pretty impressive, man. This guy lives in a whole nother state, bro. Four states away, bro.
The digging they do for this guy, bro, it's amazing, man.
[00:03:19] Speaker A: Marty Mendoza. So your followers were, like, telling you, hey, go tell that guy something, because he's no.
[00:03:25] Speaker C: So we had already all these videos, bro.
Every day I would get on TikTok, and that's all I would see. Marty Mendoza. Marty Mendoza. And then these people I'd go live with all the time, they were like, man, bro, that's crazy. Yeah, we see those videos, too. So this is that one day, I guess, one of his followers was in there and just went and relayed a message, like, hey, man, they're talking about you. And that's how it kicked off.
Definitely, man. Check that guy out, bro.
[00:03:54] Speaker A: Mendoza.
[00:03:55] Speaker C: Interesting, man right there.
[00:03:57] Speaker A: The other dude is Shytown, you said?
[00:03:58] Speaker C: Yeah, his name was. I can't remember exactly his name, but I know it's Shytown.
[00:04:02] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:04:03] Speaker C: And that dude right there, man, let me tell you, that dude can find some info on that guy, bro. It is crazy, bro. Like, some crazy stuff right there, bro.
[00:04:13] Speaker A: Yeah.
So in our post regarding, I guess, broadcasting that we're going to have alive with you, there was already somebody talking trash about you on the comment section. Do you want to share? Me?
[00:04:26] Speaker C: A bully?
[00:04:27] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:04:27] Speaker B: He called you a bully.
[00:04:28] Speaker C: I'm from a small town, bro. Everybody knows everybody.
He's like 27 years old. Bro, wannabe news reporter rolls around in a bike everywhere.
So there's already some people sharing like a meme of him. Fake news, whatever what he does, bro, fake news.
You can be watching his life, bro. And this dude's over here saying, oh man, these people are getting rated, it's a drug rate or whatever. And then boom, when the actual news comes out it's like, bro, wasn't even that. So this dude just hypes it up, bro.
[00:04:59] Speaker B: Clickbait.
[00:05:00] Speaker C: Yeah, exactly. So I shared this meme that somebody had already been sharing. So like I said, I shared the meme. Like four days passed, the dude messaging me and calling me bro.
So when I finally look at the messages and all the shit he's saying, when I want to respond back, hey, this person's unavailable on messenger.
How are you going to blow me up like that, bro? And don't even give me the chance to respond back.
So I said, you know what, fuck it. I said, you want to play, bro? We'll play. So I kept with it, bro, and then he starts like, I'm going to send somebody to burn your house down. And people are sending me these screenshots, bro. What he's putting on his page, bro, and he starts mentioning this one guy, guadalupe. He's like, bro, I'm going to send Guadalupe over there. So Guadalupe messaged me, talking about like, hey, Joe, bro, I don't mess with Paul, I don't fuck with him, bro. I know who you are. I don't want no problems, bro. I said, bro, he's throwing your name out there, bro. He's like, nah, fuck no. I said, all right.
So that Monday, like I said, I get off of work, bro, and I'm haunting ass home, bro. I'm doing like 90 mad telling my wife, hey, get the fucking money ready, get a lawyer ready because I'm going to jail. Don't give a fuck. So sure enough, bro, I pulled up to his house, bro, and his mama had to come out and talk for him, bro.
Are you acting all hard, bro? Your mom has to come out and talk for you, bro.
[00:06:24] Speaker A: Wow, that's crazy, bro. So y'all are from Mathis? Mathis in the house, y'all.
[00:06:29] Speaker C: Mathis, Texas.
[00:06:30] Speaker A: So this is how Mathis rolls.
Wow, you were telling me about. I was like. And you were like, everybody knows that guy, bro.
[00:06:38] Speaker C: Everybody, bro. Man, if you have me on Facebook, bro, I dog this dude every day, bro. Don't start with me, bro, because I'm the one, bro. I don't know how to stop, bro. I'll keep egging and egging it.
And that's where we're at in this point, bro. As a matter of fact, I got some shirts that I'm coming out with, bro.
[00:06:56] Speaker A: Cool.
[00:06:57] Speaker C: Because he showed up. So after I went to his house, his mom's like, well, I'm going to call the cops. Hey, go ahead and call the cops.
You know where I live. I told her the street name. So sure enough, bro, the cops show up. Well, I show up to my house.
My neighbor is like, hey, he's coming down the street right now in his bike. I said, all right. So boom, I happened to look, and there goes the cop. And then there goes him behind the cop. I'm like, man.
So I see him come around the block, and he pulls up at the. It's 359, right? That cuts through town. And he's there on his phone. I'm like, hey, come on, bro, come here, come here, bro. So I start walking towards him, bro, and I pass my, you know, my grandpa lived next to me. So I pass him, and this dude pedals on his bike towards me. Hey, fuck you. Whatever, bro. The cop passes me and cuts him off, bro, in front of my mom's house, and he's there. He's. I'm a man, Joe. I'm a man. I got balls, too. I'm like, bro. I was like, you just called the cops my guy. What do you like? You ain't no type of man, bro. Like, come on. And the cop, bro, I was mad, bro. And the cop just said, joe is not worth it, Joe. I was like, bro. And then this dude's telling the cop I want to press charges on him. I'm like, bro, how does that work? He's like, he showed up to my house. I'm like, yeah, bro. I said, tell them why I went to your house, doc. I said, tell them how much you were there putting on Facebook, dog. You're going to have somebody burn my house down. Wow. And bro, the cop just kept saying, joe, it's not worth it. It's not worth. Like, I'm like, bro. And my mom was there. My mom's like, man, fuck this dude. And this. And that's how. And that dude's like, oh, he's a bully. Like, bro, how am I being a bully, bro?
You can ache me all day, bro. I don't care, but don't bring my family into it, bro. Don't say you're going to burn my house down with my family, because then we're really going to have problems.
[00:08:58] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:08:59] Speaker C: But I'm a bully. It's cool. You know what I'm saying?
[00:09:02] Speaker A: Yeah. It's funny to me how people could just make somebody else hate you just by them saying that without any evidence or anything to have those opinions about you sucks. And I was telling you before the show, like, if he wants to come onto the show and share his thought of the story, come on, bro, that's fine with me.
[00:09:23] Speaker C: And you know what, bro? Okay, so you shared that thing on TikTok, right? So I went ahead and shared it to my Facebook page, bro. And everybody on there was like, bro, get Paul on there. Get Paul on.
Know. So, shit, there might be one like that, bro. You never know. We might just have to bring them up. That's put them on here.
[00:09:40] Speaker A: Yeah, that would be interesting.
[00:09:41] Speaker C: See how it gets.
[00:09:42] Speaker A: Yeah, that's awesome, man. So you from Mathis?
I'm digging your beard, bro. I can't get past it.
Yeah, you don't have the stash.
[00:09:50] Speaker C: I had it like that for years.
[00:09:52] Speaker A: Yeah, man, and then I saw your before and after pics, before you had tattoos and then after you had tattoos. So what's up with that? You just wanted to just start putting them on your body or what, man?
[00:10:04] Speaker C: I got sleeved up in prison, right? I went to prison at a young age. But I've always liked tattoos, bro. To me, your tattoos tell a story about you. Maybe the way you grew up or just the type of life you like to live. But I just recently got my head all done within this last two years, I did on my head and all that. But I've always been like somebody into horror stuff, bro. So I like evil portrait stuff.
[00:10:32] Speaker A: You got the Marys and the Jesus and all that. Sometimes, like in your post.
[00:10:36] Speaker C: Yeah.
People pray to God in Jesus, whatever. I believe in Santa Muerte. So I got her real big on top of my head, got her name on my face.
[00:10:47] Speaker A: Santa Muerte, what is that?
[00:10:49] Speaker C: It's like, how would I put it, bro? Like saint of angel of death, bro. A lot of people worship her. I do. She's helped me out a lot, especially these last couple of years, man. I had it real rough. But I feel since I've turned to her, I always tour, man. So I told her, help me out or whatever. I'm going to get your tattoo pictured on me or your picture tattooed on me. I'm sorry.
So I did, man. I got it on my head and all that, man.
[00:11:19] Speaker A: So you said you had mentioned you had it rough.
Does that have to do with switching into the new job, man?
[00:11:28] Speaker C: Bro, I didn't work for about four or five years, man. It was having to hustle to survive type.
And, man, I would go apply for work, bro, and I could never get a job, bro. Yeah, we'll call you. We'll call you. We'll call you. So my sister in law like, hey, you should try praying to her, man. She helps me out all the time. So sure enough, brought in and bought some statues, bro. And it was like that week, bro, hired, man. What the fuck? Just been with it ever since, man.
[00:11:58] Speaker A: Yeah, right on.
[00:11:59] Speaker C: Ever since, bro.
[00:12:00] Speaker A: So is it a crane operator?
[00:12:03] Speaker C: I'm a heavy equipment operator, but I run a crane.
[00:12:06] Speaker A: Yeah, looks like fun, bro.
[00:12:10] Speaker C: It's fun, bro. But it sucks when you sit down 14, 15 hours a day and the only break you get is when you got to use the bathroom or take.
[00:12:18] Speaker A: A lunch break or the machine breaks down. I thought you pulled it down.
[00:12:24] Speaker C: It's like these last three weeks, bro, every day, three in the morning till five, six in the afternoon type stuff, man. So it's pretty gruesome sometimes, bro. It's tiring, bro.
[00:12:36] Speaker A: Yeah. So do you find yourself winding down a certain way, like every time, bro?
[00:12:41] Speaker C: I'll put on some slow jams, bro, and just chill, bro.
[00:12:45] Speaker A: What kind of jam, man?
[00:12:46] Speaker C: I'll put on some Merle haggard or some Tracy bird, bro.
Yeah, country and rock or some Mondi crue, bro. And I'm just there chilling, bro.
I used to just not have the radio on, bro. Man. And my days were like, long, bro, long and boring. And I'm like, man. So then I would just start putting the radio on, bro, and jamming, bro, to get by the day, bro. Because like I said, man, 1415 hours days.
I know the longest we did one time was like 18 hours straight to fill up some contracts that we needed to get done.
[00:13:27] Speaker A: Yeah. How do you feel about it now?
Obviously you needed money in your pocket now.
[00:13:34] Speaker C: Is it worth, bro? Yeah, man. I'm able to take some good vacations, bro, when I want to. I ain't got to be, oh, let me work two weeks to save some money.
Checks are pretty good when they hit the bank account, so I'm able to enjoy life right now, bro.
[00:13:51] Speaker B: That's good.
[00:13:52] Speaker C: Hopefully it lasts already been there a little over a year.
[00:13:56] Speaker A: That's good, man.
[00:13:58] Speaker C: Hopefully it just gets better from there, man.
[00:14:00] Speaker A: Yeah, man. That's good. And so you were streaming before you got into that job?
[00:14:04] Speaker C: Yeah, so I used to stream on Twitch. I used to play, man. Like I said, a bunch of video games. I have like a $4,000 computer set up. And, man, me and my buddies, I'm talking about day and night, bro. No sleep, streaming video games and just all kinds of random things, bro.
But yeah, about a year or two ago, somebody else had invited me on, but it was a Twitch stream guy about a San Antonio.
[00:14:26] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:14:27] Speaker C: And Drew can't remember the last thing of his name. I know his name was Drew. And just talking about random stuff. His was mainly more about video games and computers and stuff like that. But that was another good little podcast that he had set up, too.
[00:14:46] Speaker A: Oh, I was trying to find it.
[00:14:47] Speaker C: On there and I might have it, bro. If you scroll all through my videos, I know it's in there somewhere where you just got to keep scrolling down. Scrolling down.
[00:14:57] Speaker A: Yeah, it made me feel bad I didn't do enough research.
[00:15:00] Speaker C: Yeah, it's in there, bro. And I was just saying to my budy about it, I was like, bro. I said, do you remember that? He's like, man, Joe, it's been like two years and I know it has, bro. That's a lot of videos to go back on, bro. I was like, man, but it's in there somewhere, bro. Yeah, you'll see it in there.
[00:15:17] Speaker A: So you had a $4,000 computer rig, bro.
[00:15:20] Speaker B: You still have one?
[00:15:21] Speaker C: I still got it, bro. And I rarely play it, bro.
[00:15:25] Speaker B: Really?
[00:15:26] Speaker C: Rarely.
[00:15:26] Speaker A: I don't know much about that, bro. So to me, that's like mind bought like $4,000.
Okay.
[00:15:35] Speaker C: The graphics card I have right now in is a 40 80.
The newest Ryzen that's come out, it's a corsair cable. The case by itself is like $400. Massive big case, bro.
[00:15:47] Speaker B: Did you buy your graphics card before or after they went down?
[00:15:51] Speaker C: I actually had preordered the 40 80. So that cost me by itself was like 14, $1500.
[00:15:58] Speaker B: Because at one point, I think the 40 least the Tis were like three grand or 3500. Yeah, but then I think like 2021, 2020 somewhere, they started declining and they started becoming more affordable.
They're not like they were back pre Covid, but they're still.
[00:16:15] Speaker C: Yeah, like when the 3000 series was out, man, I remember going to Houston and buying a 30 80, which you could have got before COVID for 600, $700, something like that. And I was paying twelve price of what it's originally worth.
[00:16:34] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:16:35] Speaker C: And then the 4000 series came up. I was able to snag one at retail price, but even for a little bit, people like, get on Facebook market and $1,800.
[00:16:49] Speaker B: Don't know if you know. So those graphics cards, they're used for mining of bitcoins. Not just bitcoins, but of cryptocurrency in general. Okay, so the reason they got so high was because when Covid happened, nobody was really doing anything. So all these people started buying them up and started mining bitcoin.
[00:17:03] Speaker A: Oh, wow.
[00:17:04] Speaker B: So then they skyrocketed, you know what I mean? So the average consumer of being able to build your own pc was no longer a feasible thing. You could build your own pc for like $1,500 back in the day, and now that's kind of like on the low end.
[00:17:17] Speaker C: Yeah, that's going to be like, maybe like a 1650 or 1080 ti. You ain't going to get no 3000 series.
[00:17:26] Speaker B: Yeah, I bought my 1080 ti for like $600, $500.
[00:17:30] Speaker C: And when I first got into pc, I happened to be at errands, bro, and they had.
And they had like a 1650 set up. Whatever. I think it was like a Ryzen five 3900.
And the lady tells my little girl, does she have luck? I said, I don't know. She's like, here, draw a bow out. And it was like, oh, you only have to put $20 down.
So I put the $20 down and I go home with it, bro. And I'm playing some games. I don't like this, man. I said, the graphics kind of shitty. I said, nah. So my budy said, no, man, I got a 1080 ti. I'll send it to you, $200.
He goes, I don't even use it. So I put it in there, and, man, this works. Badass. I had that for a little bit. Then I still didn't like it, bro. I wanted something better. So of course Covid is already going on, and I'm like, so I'm on Facebook market. You can't get a 3000 series card off from no website. They're all sold out. So I'm on Facebook market, and boom, I see a 30 70. The guy wants $800 for it.
I said, man, and he's from Sugar land. He's like, can you meet me at the police station?
[00:18:49] Speaker B: I said, bro, he probably saw your profile.
[00:18:53] Speaker C: I'm like, two and a half hours from you, bro. But I'll be there. I said, just tell me what police station you want, and I'll be there. So boom, we drive over there, bro, and I get it, and I come back.
I still want something better, bro. So there's a 30, 80, 80 comes in play.
[00:19:10] Speaker A: What is that? Hold on. So that's what, your graphic card?
[00:19:13] Speaker C: Yeah, the graphic card.
[00:19:14] Speaker B: It's like the serial. So it started. Well, it started real low, but 1080 was, like, a real big leap.
[00:19:23] Speaker C: Is.
[00:19:23] Speaker B: Just the number associated with that card. Okay, so it goes like 10 60, 10 70, 10 80. Then it went 2060.
Yeah. So it jumps, like 2030. Now we're in the 40s. So now it's like 40 60, 40 70, 40 80.
[00:19:38] Speaker A: So you got that one from the Sugarland, dude, and you needed another one.
[00:19:41] Speaker C: Yeah, then I wanted it something better. So I got the 30 80, and the 30 80 ran me about. I think I was like, 1213. So I had to meet the guy in Houston for that, right? So then I had that, bro.
I think around that time, there was a 30 90s graphics card, and then they came out with the 30 90 ti. So I wanted that. So I sold my 30 80 for way less than what I bought it just to be able to put in for that 39. And mind you, at this time, I don't even have a job, bro.
You figured it out.
[00:20:18] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:20:20] Speaker C: So, boom, I get the 30 90 ti, and then I'd even, like, a couple of months later, oh, the 40,000 series, I was like, I just got this card.
But like I said, I was able to get the 40 80 at retail price. Now it's kind of like. It's hard to get them at retail. You can still get them, but it's.
[00:20:41] Speaker B: Come down a lot.
[00:20:42] Speaker A: A lot, a lot.
[00:20:43] Speaker B: You're probably talking about, like, 50% for the higher end cards. Like, lower than what it was a.
[00:20:48] Speaker C: Couple of years ago.
[00:20:48] Speaker A: When did you all decide to do computer instead of ma'am? Controller?
[00:20:52] Speaker C: All my buddies were switching over, bro to controller to computer. Yeah, bro. We're all on the Xbox Fan club, bro. I was a real big Xbox fan girl, bro. I love Xbox. You couldn't talk bad about Xbox, bro, because that was an argument right there.
And then my budy's like, hey, man should get a pc. He had a gaming laptop. I was like, yeah, man, but gaming laptops aren't that good.
So that's where it kind of kicked. Know, man. I was sitting, like, only one guy helped me, bro, and he would like, this was like, over the phone. Like, no, joe. It's like legos, man. They just all snap together. Don't force it in. Just take your time. Don't get aggravated. And then it got to the point, bro. I didn't need no help from nobody, bro.
[00:21:34] Speaker A: I was like, that's it.
[00:21:35] Speaker C: I was like, this is easy, man. And then people are like, hey, Joey, you can build me a setup and I get the parts and how much would you charge me? I was like 100 know. I said, but I'm not good at the wire management, man. That's going to look good.
[00:21:48] Speaker A: Wire manager, because you're building your own.
[00:21:50] Speaker C: Computer in the back of the case, bro. You have all your power supply wires, your fans, bro.
[00:21:57] Speaker B: It just looks like wires upon wires.
If you turn it around, you can't see no wire. So it looks nice.
[00:22:02] Speaker C: And once you open the bag, you're.
[00:22:05] Speaker A: Like, I've seen some guys put like Plexiglass and have all these lights and.
[00:22:08] Speaker C: All kinds of everything, bro. Everything.
[00:22:10] Speaker A: You got to have all that everything.
[00:22:11] Speaker B: How do you feel about the recent Microsoft where they're going to open their license to other studios now so they're not going to have exclusives no more on Microsoft because I was a big Xbox fan too. I started with the Xbox one, then I went to the 360 and as soon as 360 was over, I went straight to pc.
[00:22:29] Speaker C: Yeah, man.
I've never really played none of the exclusives. I know Halo was like one of the biggest for Microsoft. So I really don't care for like, I still have the Xbox Series X right now. And I always tell my buddies this, bro, I just wish we could be all in a party. Even if it's a pc and a PlayStation Player all in one party. Yeah, but they still haven't done that yet.
[00:22:59] Speaker B: So maybe some games are super cross platform like Fortnite. You can play with anybody.
[00:23:03] Speaker C: Oh yeah, Fortnite Call of Duty.
[00:23:05] Speaker B: We were talking about hell divers earlier. You can play PS five and pc play together on hell divers.
[00:23:13] Speaker C: I'm real big into PUBG. Players are known Battleground. I have 3000 hours probably on that game since the day released.
If you try to play that on pc, bro, forget it. You want to talk about cheating and raging, bro?
[00:23:29] Speaker B: That's where everybody's modding in that.
[00:23:31] Speaker C: What are y'all talking about?
[00:23:32] Speaker A: Y'all lost me.
[00:23:35] Speaker B: So PUBG is just like a shooter. It's like a battle royale shooter. It's kind of like the original almost.
So they came out and it's like Fortnite. But before Fortnite was Fortnite.
[00:23:44] Speaker A: Basically Fortnite is.
[00:23:46] Speaker B: It's another battle royale shooter. Everybody drops in a map and then it's the last man standing.
[00:23:51] Speaker A: No. Okay, shoot.
[00:23:52] Speaker C: Yeah. You versus 99 people.
[00:23:55] Speaker B: That's essentially what it is.
[00:23:56] Speaker A: And so you're saying rage like, meaning people talking.
[00:23:59] Speaker C: No, I'm talking about, like, where you throw your keyboard and mouse across the room and, hey, fuck this, bro. I remember I bought, I think it was a Logitech, almost like $180, bro. I mean, rgb, you name it, it had it. And we were playing Pubg, bro. And I remember coming up, like, on a hill, bro, and this dude just comes up out of nowhere, bro. Moses. Me and my budy down, bro. And I'm like, bro, how did he know we're there, bro? Like, I got mad, bro, and I slammed it. Like, I hit my hands on, bro. Fuck this fucking game, bro. And fucking threw it, bro. Mad. And then there's my dumbass going back to fucking best buy to go buy.
I was like, God damn.
[00:24:51] Speaker A: Like that guy burning the cowboy jersey on your.
[00:24:54] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, fuck the cowboys.
[00:24:56] Speaker B: Hey, we come back every year, though, bro.
[00:24:59] Speaker C: Let's not talk about that. Everybody in the room, you know what?
Everybody I work with, bro, they're all cowboy. And I give it to them, bro, because they start off strong every year, and it gives everybody hope, bro, that they're going. And then as soon as they get.
[00:25:17] Speaker B: To the end, bro, it's every year.
[00:25:18] Speaker C: Though, I'm like, man, what's going on?
[00:25:20] Speaker B: I tell everybody, because I'm cowboys fan, right? Like, I'll be a cowboys fan for the rest of my life, but I'm a realistic Cowboys fan. So they're like, oh, they go into.
[00:25:28] Speaker C: The Super bowl this year?
[00:25:29] Speaker B: I was like, hell no, they ain't going to Super Bowl. I was like, they're barely going to make it out of playoffs, if they.
[00:25:33] Speaker C: Even make it, bro. I got a guy on my facebook, bro, that I went to school with, and every time they play, bro, I'm talking about this dude has the jersey, some pants, a flag like a cape, his face painted, some chain with a star. I'm like, God damn, bro, you know they ain't going to win Super bowl, that event since the 90s. Come on, bro.
[00:25:57] Speaker B: We had a cousin like that. He passed away not too long ago.
[00:26:00] Speaker A: Yes, because die hard.
[00:26:01] Speaker B: Die hard cowboy, he even got buried in a cowboys casket, bro. He was die hard, bro.
[00:26:08] Speaker A: He lived in Dallas for a little while, too.
[00:26:09] Speaker C: That's crazy. I've never been a cowboys fan, bro.
[00:26:12] Speaker B: Really?
[00:26:12] Speaker C: Ever.
[00:26:13] Speaker A: No kidding. Do you have a team or.
[00:26:15] Speaker C: I like the Eagles, bro.
I've been an fan since Donovan McDonald.
I like the Eagles.
[00:26:25] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:26:26] Speaker C: I like the Eagles.
[00:26:28] Speaker A: Donovan McNabb is the quarterback, right?
[00:26:31] Speaker C: He was our quarterback, man. This was.
I was like, in the 7th and 8th grade, bro. When you.
[00:26:36] Speaker A: No kidding, bro. That long?
[00:26:37] Speaker B: Yeah, it's been a while.
[00:26:39] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:26:39] Speaker C: And I've just always liked them since then.
[00:26:41] Speaker A: That's cool.
[00:26:42] Speaker C: I like these.
[00:26:43] Speaker A: What's up, dude? Cousin Genesis like that? Yeah, Genesis. You're watching? Wow, man. That's awesome, dude. This cool conversation we got going on here, I don't know, trying to figure out where to go. So you're married or you married?
[00:26:58] Speaker C: My wife. My little girl.
[00:27:00] Speaker A: Wife and daughter. Yeah.
[00:27:01] Speaker B: No camera pick.
[00:27:03] Speaker A: Yeah, family, man. We both married. We have kids, too.
I asked you a question on your live.
What are some of the challenges you have right now?
[00:27:14] Speaker C: Oh, yeah.
[00:27:15] Speaker A: You remember that?
[00:27:16] Speaker C: Yeah, the challenges I have? I don't know, bro. Right now, bro. Everything's good, bro.
There's nothing really standing in my way, bro. Yeah, everything's been going good.
[00:27:26] Speaker A: What do you mean by that standing in your way?
[00:27:28] Speaker C: I got nothing like no negative around me right now, bro.
Everything that's been going on lately is all positive.
[00:27:38] Speaker A: Do you think the decisions you've made have got you to that point, to where there's no negativity around you, or how did that start happening?
[00:27:48] Speaker C: The day I had my little girl, bro, my life changed a lot.
[00:27:51] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:27:51] Speaker C: Because I was a fuck up, bro. Growing up, like, bad. I went to prison. I was like, 19 when I went to prison. Real young and had my little girl, 2015, bro, kind of open my eyes.
Don't get me wrong, bro, I still get out there right now, bro. But probably not the way I used to back then when I didn't have kids.
[00:28:10] Speaker A: So you wanted to be there for your daughter?
[00:28:12] Speaker C: Yeah.
Throughout the years, we had some hiccups, you know what I'm saying?
One point I remember, we got raided, got rated, and was still on Parole, bro.
Let me tell you, we were there going to court, bro. They're like, you ain't never going to come home no more. You're going to be gone for a long time. Your kids are going to see you get old in there. I was like, God damn.
But luckily at the end, when that all got thrown out due to a lack of evidence and stuff, bro, but kind of slowed down a lot. So now I just work, bro. I just work.
I get up every day at 130, bro. Go to work, come home and stay home and don't stay away from it. Stay away from everything, bro.
[00:28:56] Speaker A: I can relate to that, bro, because my dad, he got raided when I was like maybe eight, seven or eight, my brother and I. And then I don't know what happened, but he ended up not going to jail, but he got parole for some amount of years, turned his life around, I guess, because he knew that that wasn't the right.
It could be worse, you know what I mean?
And I'm thankful for my dad actually manning up and making that decision and actually going straight, you know what I mean? He's been remodeling for years.
And my stepmom, his wife, they did a good job raising us, and I want my kids to have relationship with them to this day. Yeah, I think that's a good.
Like, we were talking about the last few podcasts. Kids need their parents, bro.
[00:29:47] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, I agree, man. I agree.
And she was six months old, bro, when we got raided.
And I was at work that day. And, man, bro, everybody was calling me, hey, Joe, the cops are at your house. And I'm trying to call my wife, bro. Nobody's answering. I'm like, man, what the fuck?
But at that point, bro, I felt like I was about to lose everything, bro, because I said I was still on parole. And that was a whole new charge right there, bro. Like, several charges they had on me. And like I said, luckily, like, a year later, $20,000 into a lawyer, it was like, hey, they fucked up doing this. Lack of evidence. They should have been rated you.
But from that day, bro, it was like, I can't be getting in trouble.
Lost time, bro. Time. You ain't never going to get back, bro. Basically.
[00:30:40] Speaker A: That's crazy.
[00:30:40] Speaker B: It's always better to look forward than behind.
[00:30:42] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:30:43] Speaker A: Amazing, man. We applaud you. That's awesome. It's awesome, bro.
You basically get home from work, just chill, just chill. Go to work next day.
[00:30:54] Speaker C: Yeah, bro, it's every day, bro. Same shit. Get up, go to work, get up, go to work on the weekends. I might drink barbecue there at the house. I like to barbecue, bro. I would barbecue every day if I could.
[00:31:04] Speaker A: Yeah, I saw you do that post. What you make? Like a dino rib or something like that?
[00:31:08] Speaker C: Tomahawk steak, bro. I make some fire tomahawk steaks, bro. Like, I'll waste money on some ribeye. Any type of steak, bro. I'll waste $200 if I got to.
[00:31:19] Speaker A: And you barbecue most of the times, of course. A Texas babe.
[00:31:23] Speaker C: Charcoal, bro.
[00:31:24] Speaker A: Charcoal.
[00:31:25] Speaker C: No, mesquite.
[00:31:26] Speaker A: Okay, come on.
[00:31:27] Speaker B: Straight wood.
[00:31:28] Speaker C: You know what? I was going to buy a pellet grill, bro, and everybody was clowning on me, forgetting I want one, too. Yeah, I want one, bro. If I could put a brisket in there and set it, I'm fine. With that, bro, I got to be out there messing with the fire.
[00:31:41] Speaker B: I had some friends clown on me, too, and they were like, what do you mean you're going to get a pellet grill? You're not going to do it old school. Mosquito, charcoal. And I'm like, bro, I can just literally set the temperature of what I want and cook everything perfectly every time.
[00:31:52] Speaker A: So it cooks all the entire steak.
What do you mean?
[00:31:55] Speaker B: The way it works is it just feeds pellets so those pellets light on fire. So it's constantly, like a constant, like, churning constantly? Yeah, instead of. Whereas, like charcoal, you're going to have ups and downs, you're going to have to reheat it. You know what I mean? Or even just with wood. So I've had people be like, be a man. Get a charcoal grill. And I'm like, bro, the pellet grill. You all sleeping on the pellet grill.
[00:32:17] Speaker C: I'm like, bro, I ain't trying to get up at no 04:00 in the morning and start a fire and come on, man. But I do. I want to get one, bro.
I was at academy today and, man, they had a nice one there, bro, for like one, $200, bro.
Even. It came with the set up to probe the brisk.
[00:32:35] Speaker B: To probe the meat. And it's all bluetooth.
[00:32:37] Speaker A: Probe the meat?
[00:32:38] Speaker C: Yeah, like to keep an eye on the internal temperature of the meat or whatever. That way, you know, like, hey, it's at 160. It's done. Pull it out.
[00:32:44] Speaker B: Yeah, you can set it on your phone. So, like, you put the probes in there and then your phone will tell you it's at 160. It's ready to get out.
[00:32:50] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:32:51] Speaker C: So that was awesome.
[00:32:52] Speaker A: They have different types of wood, too, right?
[00:32:54] Speaker C: Yeah, all different kind of like flavors, bro. Cherry, pecan, oak, man. All kinds, bro. All kinds.
[00:32:59] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:33:01] Speaker C: I said, bro, you all can make fun of you, but I'm buying one. I don't care.
[00:33:04] Speaker A: Yeah, so it's got the wood pellets on one side. Just like, I want to say traditional. Where it had, like, on the one side where the fire burns.
[00:33:13] Speaker C: Yeah, I think it has like a little box on the side. Yeah, it looks like a firebox, basically. On the pit.
[00:33:19] Speaker A: Yeah, on the side.
[00:33:20] Speaker C: Fit it up and stuff.
[00:33:23] Speaker A: Yeah. Steaks, bro. We were at. What was it, that one we went to? Flame girl or something like that.
[00:33:29] Speaker B: Texas flame?
[00:33:30] Speaker A: Yeah, Texas flame, yeah.
[00:33:31] Speaker C: How do you eat your steaks, though? That's the question.
[00:33:34] Speaker A: Medium rare.
[00:33:34] Speaker C: There you go.
[00:33:35] Speaker B: Depends. Sometimes I'll tell them, like, blue and like, super charred on the outside. Depends on how I'm feeling.
[00:33:40] Speaker C: I've never had a blue steak, bro. I've never had a blue steak.
[00:33:44] Speaker A: What is that?
[00:33:45] Speaker C: That's like 10 seconds.
[00:33:48] Speaker B: It's almost raw on the inside. Well, actually, it is raw on the inside.
[00:33:52] Speaker C: It's, like real charred on the outside and raw in the.
[00:33:55] Speaker B: But medium rare. I think it's got the best flavor. But sometimes I like blue.
[00:33:59] Speaker C: A one sauce or. No, a one.
[00:34:01] Speaker B: If it steaks cooked properly, you don't need that.
[00:34:04] Speaker C: A good steak doesn't need a one sauce, bro.
[00:34:06] Speaker A: Yeah, I don't like that. A one sauce anyway. It's like, sour.
[00:34:09] Speaker C: It's not my wife over here. Oh, let me have it. Well done. I said, danny, well done. Might as well be chewing through some rubber, man, at that point.
[00:34:16] Speaker B: Just get a burger.
[00:34:21] Speaker C: But I mess with steaks. Heavy, bro.
[00:34:23] Speaker A: So the ribeye and the sirloin. The sirloin is more meaty or more gamey? Is that the difference between the two?
[00:34:28] Speaker B: Ribeye has a lot of fat.
[00:34:29] Speaker A: There you go.
[00:34:30] Speaker B: So when a ribeye cooks, it's going to have a lot more flavor, because that fat gives it a lot more flavor.
[00:34:35] Speaker C: I think the New York strip is a little bit more, like lean on.
[00:34:39] Speaker B: The strip is, like, super lean. There's, like, a very thin layer of fat on it.
[00:34:43] Speaker A: So New York's the leanest. And then sirloin. And then Ribeye.
[00:34:46] Speaker B: I think sirloin is a type of. So, yeah, like a type of cut, like, from wherever it's from. But honestly, all I know is Ribeye. If I go anywhere, I'm like, just give me a ribeye. I don't want anything else.
[00:34:56] Speaker C: Yeah, ribeye. I tried a filet mignon one time, bro. It's like $60, and I had never even seen one, bro. And when they bring it out, it's like a medallion.
[00:35:07] Speaker A: Oh, my God.
[00:35:10] Speaker C: The size of this. I'm like, I'm paying $60 for that. They're like, yeah, it's a filet mignon.
[00:35:15] Speaker B: It's top choice meat, but I'd rather just have a regular old ribeye.
[00:35:20] Speaker A: I'm thinking fish filet mignon. But it's like actual cow or what?
[00:35:26] Speaker B: Yeah, it just depends on where they cut it from. But it's supposed to be, like, premium. That's like the.
[00:35:31] Speaker C: Supposed to be.
[00:35:34] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:35:36] Speaker C: I don't know if you ever had a dry age steak.
[00:35:39] Speaker B: No.
[00:35:40] Speaker C: I went to champs there in Caladen, and I bought. Man, could have sworn the price said $17 a pound. But I must have missed shred the price, but it was dried, aged for like 32 days. So I said, man, let me get a two inch cut. Acting real big. Let me get a two inch cut. And boom. Do you want the bark on it? I was like, not cut the bark off. So when they ring up the price, I was like, 153. I was like, in my mind, I was like, bro, I can act like a bitch now, bro. Hold on.
I can't go back now, bro. Charge the car.
[00:36:16] Speaker B: We've come too far.
[00:36:20] Speaker C: I can't look like a punk in front of my wife, bro. Charge the car, bro.
[00:36:23] Speaker A: Don't worry.
[00:36:24] Speaker B: How would you do that, though? You're like, take it back and cut.
[00:36:25] Speaker A: Off, like, half of that, right?
I would have been like, where am I?
[00:36:33] Speaker B: Oh, I left my wallet in the car.
[00:36:34] Speaker A: I'll be.
[00:36:35] Speaker C: And then I'm like, bro, I know I saw 17, bro, it's $47 a.
[00:36:42] Speaker A: Pound or something like that, bro, just recently.
[00:36:45] Speaker C: Wow, man. Maybe like two months ago, three months ago.
[00:36:48] Speaker A: Yeah. Prices have gone so far up, haven't they? I mean, do you all think so?
Everything, right?
[00:36:55] Speaker C: Yeah, I like to go to Staple street meat market, bro.
[00:37:00] Speaker B: That's where we go.
[00:37:01] Speaker C: Yeah, I give them props on the meat they got there, bro. Especially when they have their sale on their tomahawk ribeyes.
[00:37:07] Speaker B: Yeah, they usually have good deals. Honestly. Sponsor us.
[00:37:09] Speaker A: Yeah, where is watching?
[00:37:12] Speaker B: Yeah, it's on staples. They have a new location. Actually, it's before Yorktown. Okay, so you're going to go down staples. You're going to get to Saratoga, past Saratoga, and it's going to be like, on the left hand side before you get to Yorktown.
[00:37:23] Speaker A: It's called staples.
[00:37:24] Speaker B: Staples street meat market.
[00:37:25] Speaker C: That's what it's good cuts of beef there, bro.
[00:37:29] Speaker B: Dude, that's where we get all our meat.
[00:37:31] Speaker A: Did you try, like, different places before you landed on that one?
[00:37:34] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, bro.
Where was another place I went?
If you got money, bro. Champ. I mean, if you got money to blow, champs is like higher end cuts of meat, bro.
But what I like about staples, they don't have their meat, like, how do you say, like in those air sealed bags or whatever.
Yeah, champs. That's how their meat is. Everything's, like, bagged up already for you. You can't go there and be like, oh, let me get three pounds of angus fajitas. You can't do that.
[00:38:11] Speaker B: So it's not a butchery then? It is a butcher.
[00:38:13] Speaker C: It's a butcher, but it's already packaged for you. Versus you go into staples, and they got, hey, man, you know, let me have that third ribeye, right?
Um, but I like their meat, brother. Meat is pretty good. There was another place. I can't even think of the name, actually. An orange grove. Bulldogs. I think it's called bulldogs meat market trash, bro. Trash. Like, if they're on here, bro, yours meat sucks.
I spent, like $68 on a ribeye, and the meat itself, bro, had, like, a weird color to it, right? And then when I opened it from the package, the smell it had, bro. I was like, what the fuck? So I called him bro. I'm like, hey, man, what's the deal with this meat? Well, if it doesn't smell, I said it smells pretty bad, and I've only had it for, like, a day, and, well, you can bring it back. So I took it back, bro, and I guess the owner, he smells it, and he's like, whoa, this smells like it's bad. I was like, yeah, can I get a refund?
Yeah. So he gives me my money back, and then he gives me a free tomahawk. He's like, for the inconvenience. And then I'm like, no, bro, your meat still sucks.
Like, I went home and cooked it, bro, and I didn't like it. I'm like, no, but staples, bro. I give it to staples, bro.
You go in there, bro, and they're on their game, bro. Yeah, and I like poppers, bro. The jalapeno popper, bro. I always got to have.
[00:39:44] Speaker A: I love those.
[00:39:45] Speaker C: Always got.
[00:39:45] Speaker B: We cook wings every Friday. Well, just about every Friday for my kids, and that's where we get our wings from.
[00:39:52] Speaker C: Staples is where it's at, bro. Even the bone marrow, they got that. I don't know if y'all like bone marrow, but.
[00:39:56] Speaker A: Bone marrow, seriously?
[00:39:57] Speaker C: Fire, bro. Fire with a ribeye.

[00:40:16] Speaker C: I like it, bro. I like it that it's quiet.
Actually, I lived here. Right here off of Morgan and 18th street, bro, at my once house right there.
[00:40:28] Speaker B: Morgan and 19th.
[00:40:29] Speaker A: Yeah, we lived on 18th. Right?

[00:40:32] Speaker C: Okay, so right there on 18th street from the stripes, like one, three, four houses down, I lived with my aunt in an awkward colored house.

And I seen all the ambulance pull up, and my aunt was like, man, what happened? And we're looking, bro, before that, I remember seeing the old man outside, bro. And then I started seeing him like this, so I didn't think nothing of it, bro. But, man, the poor old man, bro. Got attacked by, like, a former bro.
[00:41:23] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:41:24] Speaker C: And, man. Yeah. Years later, when we find that out, bro, I was like, man, it's fucked up. Just standing there looking at him, swatting stuff away, but nothing happened to them. Luckily. Nothing happened to him, man.
[00:41:36] Speaker A: Yeah, the stripes, man. Yeah. That was so long ago, right, bro?
[00:41:39] Speaker C: Yeah. I lived there for about two years. My aunt, bro, and she worked there at a memorial, bro. She retired there for, like, 35 years.
[00:41:47] Speaker A: Who's that?
[00:41:49] Speaker C: They're at the old memorial before they tore it down.
[00:41:52] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:41:53] Speaker C: So that was always something, bro, to be outside and, man, the helicopters all the time landing the ambulance.
No matter what time it was, bro, there was something going on. And Mathis ain't like that, but you might hear the ambulance, bro, every other day.
But other than that, bro, it's quiet.
[00:42:12] Speaker A: Do you live in the city or, like, outside?
[00:42:14] Speaker C: I live in town. Like, right on the edge of town. I live at.
[00:42:18] Speaker A: They're building something new out there, aren't they? Like, kind of near the school or past the school?
[00:42:23] Speaker C: Man, I want to say it's like a subdivision, bro. I want to say. I could be wrong, but I want to say it's going to be subdivision. Yeah, somebody else said it was going to be, like some kind of train depot or something, but I want to say it's a subdivision, bro, to be honest with you.
[00:42:37] Speaker A: Oh, shoot, man. That's awesome, bro. Thanks for coming on the show, man.
[00:42:40] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, man. I appreciate the invite, man.
[00:42:43] Speaker A: Yeah, no, for sure. Yeah, I was just interested on there. I don't know if we probably touched on this already, but you're saying that you have got a bunch of TikTok followers. Were you trying to get a lot of followers?
[00:42:54] Speaker C: No, bro. No. That wasn't even my thing to do, bro. My intentions to do or anything. I just post videos, bro, just to post them. Like I said. That one posted, I did, of working at the Corpus Christie most haunted hotel, bro, like a million views. I was like, oh, shit, the videos.
[00:43:15] Speaker B: Get a lot of views, man.
[00:43:16] Speaker A: They do, right? Like the haunted conspiracy, paranormal and all that.
[00:43:24] Speaker C: There's just that one, bro. And then talking with the Marty about the Marty Mendoza dude, bro.
Yeah, that right there, bro, sealed the cake for me, bro. But I don't post every, like, one of my budies at work. Like, man, Joe, how'd you get so many followers? He goes, man, I post videos, but I don't get views. I said, well, how often do you post a video? He's like, maybe like once a week. So, bro, it's like an algorithm, bro. If you post every day, maybe two or three videos a day, bro, that's when you start seeing the views on your videos start going, at least that's the way I see it, because I'll post one video a week, bro, and I'll get like 500 views, 1000.
But if I do it every day, two or three videos a day for like a week straight, I've noticed how I just did one two weeks ago.
Heb sells a shrimp boil bag, 20,000 views. And that one day I put it. And it stopped there. It stopped at 20,000. 20,000? That's crazy. Within 2 hours that it was up 20,000 views.
[00:44:31] Speaker A: Yeah, so I noticed the subscription button on there, too. Did you decide?
[00:44:35] Speaker C: Yeah, I did a subscription thing. I think I have only, like, a couple of people that do it.
[00:44:38] Speaker A: Seriously?
[00:44:39] Speaker C: Yeah, but I mean, it was like $3 to subscribe or whatever.
[00:44:42] Speaker A: And that's for your live feed?
[00:44:44] Speaker C: Yeah, like, when you go live and stuff, bro, I think if you go live, you can set, like, custom emotes that they have and stuff like that. Or, like, if you post videos, they get, like, a first notification type deal and stuff like that.
[00:44:58] Speaker A: Aaron Rios, he put on YouTube. He put I got balls, joe.
[00:45:01] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, Aaron, he's from.
Was that video, bro.
So when this dude pulls up to the block, he's recording, bro. And that was one of the things, bro. He's like, I got balls too, joe. Or no, he says, I got balls. I got balls too, joe, bro, I see people in town, they're like, hey, I got.
Bro. Wild, bro.
[00:45:30] Speaker B: You started a trend, bro.
[00:45:32] Speaker C: Yeah, bro.
[00:45:33] Speaker B: Make a shirt, bro.
[00:45:34] Speaker C: As a matter of fact, my brother's doing it for me, bro. And it's just like some samples and whatever. He said.
[00:45:45] Speaker A: Yeah, wow.
[00:45:50] Speaker C: And, bro, I got, bro, like, 20 something shirts altogether.
And people are like, bro, I'll cash. I said, no, hold on. We're still working on it. And I still got to order the shirts, I just can't just go and buy 20 shirts. I got to see. And they're like, bro, I'll cash happy the money right now.
But off of those little famous words he threw, I was like, you know what, bro? Look, I told my brother ribbon to make some money, bro.
[00:46:22] Speaker A: Yeah, you got a product, bro.
[00:46:24] Speaker C: You got your TikTok. Let's go ahead and do it, bro.
[00:46:26] Speaker A: Dude, that's what's up, man.
[00:46:28] Speaker C: But yeah, just that I got balls right there, bro.
[00:46:37] Speaker A: Yeah, I was thinking about something, man. That's awesome. You had a product with that, started selling the shirt or you haven't started, but that's a good idea.
[00:46:43] Speaker C: And I never snapped about it, bro. My brother was the one like, bro, he goes, these words right here, bro, she could put them on a shirt.
[00:46:51] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:46:52] Speaker C: And then I guess he posted that dude Paul when he was recording. I guess he posted it on his page or whatever. And everybody was like, bro, I got balls. Joe fucking got to me dead. So that was all of it, bro. And my brother's like, bro, we got to do it, bro. I said, fuck it, bro. Do or whatever. I'll buy the shirts because he has a set up to do it and we'll do it. I was like, fuck yeah.
[00:47:19] Speaker A: I bet you that's making that dude Paul hot. Even more hot.
[00:47:22] Speaker C: And I put on there, I put on my status on Facebook, I said.
[00:47:25] Speaker B: Bro, should have had him hiding behind one of the.
[00:47:30] Speaker C: I put on there, bro. Like, hey, Paul, I really want to thank you, bro, for those famous.
I said, because you have made me about $500, my guy. Thank you.
[00:47:42] Speaker A: You make lemonade out of lemons, man.
You all think Yolanda Saldivar is going.
[00:47:49] Speaker C: To be, you know, here's my thing.
I'm afraid Selena. Selena, bro. But man, let that lady rest, bro. It's like, I see all these videos, people are like, oh, when she gets out, we're going to be lined up, man. She's been in prison, what, 20 something years, right? Nothing's happened to her in prison.
[00:48:14] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:48:16] Speaker C: And so you're telling me you're about to throw your life away for her? You know what I'm saying? Like, come on, man.
[00:48:21] Speaker A: I'm sorry, what were you saying? She's had all that time in prison. Yeah.
[00:48:24] Speaker B: Nobody's even done anything to her.
[00:48:26] Speaker C: Yeah, people are making videos like, oh, we write at dawn when she comes out, man. She's been in prison all this time, man. Nothing's happened to her. What makes you think when she comes out here it's going to happen? God forbid, bro. You never know. There's some people like that that don't give a fuck. And they'll pay. Fuck it.
[00:48:43] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:48:44] Speaker C: Anything for Selena, right?
[00:48:47] Speaker B: Our receptionist manager guy in the front of our office, he's like, super hardcore Selena. So every day I text him and I'm like, you got to hear her side out. I text him a picture of Yolanda, and he's all, shut the fuck up.
[00:49:01] Speaker A: Have you seen the memes that they have with her on there?
[00:49:03] Speaker B: Yeah, I've seen a couple.
[00:49:05] Speaker A: Which one's the best one you've seen so far?
I saw her as a stripes lady.
[00:49:10] Speaker B: Yeah, I think it was the stripes.
[00:49:12] Speaker C: Was it Laredo, taco company?
[00:49:13] Speaker A: Yeah, there you go.
[00:49:14] Speaker B: Yeah, I think so. I don't know because that shit was.
[00:49:17] Speaker C: Funny the other day, but I can't remember what it was.
[00:49:20] Speaker A: And the security guy was talking, security guard I was talking to, he was like, if he shot her twice, if she shot her twice and she said it was an accident, he said it was an accident. How do you shoot her twice if it's an accident?
[00:49:33] Speaker B: Twitch.
[00:49:35] Speaker C: Right?
[00:49:36] Speaker A: And one of the guys from the other podcast, he's like, maybe she's fumbling it around like that.
[00:49:44] Speaker B: Yeah, I don't know, man.
Honestly, I don't think anything will happen to her. I just think it's funny seeing all the people get outraged about it. I mean, it sucks what happened, right? Obviously. But the people that are, like you said, we ran a.
[00:50:00] Speaker C: Bro, she. To me personally, bro, I think she paved the way for all these female Tejano singers because growing mean, that's all you would hear, bro. Selena. Selena.
But it sucks what happened to her, man. But I know, I've seen that Yolanda and Selena thing on. Was it peacock or. Yeah, and the stuff she kind of.
[00:50:25] Speaker A: I mean, yeah, that's what the guy was saying, too. It's like, I don't know. It could have been true what she was saying, some story, you know what I mean? What was he saying? That she was dating Selena, was dating some guy in Monterey, some doctor or something like.
[00:50:38] Speaker B: Well, the one I heard was like, that doctor was in love with her or whatever. But then all the comments underneath were like, name one person that wasn't in love with Selena.
[00:50:48] Speaker C: And I'm like, yeah, you're probably right.
Yeah, it was crazy, I guess. See what happens next year, man, if she gets to come home or not, that's going to be pretty crazy.
[00:51:05] Speaker A: So you're doing what you're doing right now. You're kind of just doing your thing, right? Providing for your family and stuff like that. What are some aspirations or goals that you have for the future, man? Bro.
[00:51:21] Speaker C: I don't know.
[00:51:23] Speaker B: This is lady named Yolanda.
[00:51:27] Speaker A: Shirts, bro. I'm telling you. That one right there.
[00:51:31] Speaker C: I really want to get that kicked off, man.
But as far as goes, man, I don't know, bro. Just give my kids a better life than what I had growing. I'm not saying I had a bad life growing up, but give them a lot more than what my parents gave me, you know what I'm saying? That's what I look forward to every day for them, man.
[00:51:49] Speaker A: Yeah, I think we do want to do. I want to say better than our parents. We're not saying they want better than our parents, but it's like, I think we take it to the next level of where they left off. Yeah, you know what I mean? Because you got to respect your parents, you know what I mean?
If they were good parents, sometimes when you don't have good parents, they weren't there, but yeah, man, that's awesome, dude, that you're doing your thing and they.
[00:52:15] Speaker C: Get these shirts going, bro. Yeah, like I said, bro, with them shirts, bro, I got people, like I say, hitting me up like, hey, bro, what's your cash app? I'll catch. No, hold on. I want to get the design right, bro. And then we can go from there. And then my brother bugs me, too, like, hey, bro, do you order the shirts already? I'm like, goddamn, bro, even if I order them, they ain't going to be here tomorrow. My guy's going to take a little bit, a couple of days.
He's like, all right, get them.
[00:52:45] Speaker A: We're coming to a close here. Is there anything you want to share, man?
[00:52:49] Speaker C: I appreciate you having me on here with you. Thanks for finally good to meeting or meeting you, bro.
[00:52:54] Speaker A: Yeah, likewise, man.
[00:52:55] Speaker C: Seeing the way you do with your stickers and your shirts and your hats and all that, it's pretty badass, man.
[00:52:59] Speaker A: Yeah, I appreciate it, man. I wanted to get some podcast content back going, and I'm enjoying it, man. I like talking to people.
It's kind of like therapy for me because I keep to myself a lot.
I talk to my wife mostly, but just being able to talk to new people face to face like this, it's helpful for me. So, yeah, man, I appreciate you coming on the show. Nothing else. We'll say goodbye, man.
[00:53:23] Speaker C: Appreciate you much. Love, Mathis.
