Welcome, welcome, welcome to another episode of the eavesdrop podcast. This episode is brought to you by hello fresh and we have the freshest halo player on the scene right now.

I'm a man trippy. Yes. Thank you for coming on to pleasure. I didn't know you were local until like a couple, what was a couple of weeks ago when I'm like, why hasn't he been on a podcast too cool for school? Yeah, where are you originally from? California.

Okay. Okay. Born and raised. Born and raised. Did you go back home for the holidays? I did. You did for like about a week, set out of the fam and how many people do you know caught COVID at the Halo event?

I mean, honestly, yeah, like probably more than that, you'd see the time on saying like, hey, is anyone feeling sick after the event or like, yeah, people, a lot of people, a lot of people, honestly, yeah, the thing you guys didn't though, right? Like, no, I felt fine.

I heard, I heard, I caught it or had some good. Yeah, I think he did get it. He said he's fine now, but he said he went to the doctors and his doctor said that he did get it. Yeah, he said he's fine now.

I don't know, like, I don't know if people page, do you, do, do you like, like, page caught it? Like, was that a secret? Like, do people keep that secret? Like, kind, I mean, like, shameful.

Unless they're like, insanely like, about to die. Yeah. But yeah, Justin said he was just, he said he was okay, but I don't think people should keep that private. Like, if you have, if you have COVID, you should tell everybody, you know, and then listen to a lot of people there. Yeah, because if you think about like 20 people, they have to be like 100 people that got sick.

And those 100 people, you know, got 300 people said, you know what I mean? Like, it's, it's got a never ending cycle that what's crazy, dude, is that around the around my area where I live, there are like three different testing centers.

And all of them have lines as they did in the, at the beginning of last year, when, when I first dropped. So like, it's definitely definitely going around.

That's what my mom was saying to you back at, back at home, like, the, it was crazy when it first started to become a thing. But now it's even like around the holidays, people couldn't even get in line, like to drive through and do it.

It's crazy. We've, I've gotten my, my nose has been jabbed. I can't even tell you how much, man, like once, once a week for the last, like, year, just constantly just getting.

Yeah, because like, I have old parents. Yeah. Well, they're not, they're not that old. Okay. I'm sorry, mom, dad, if you're watching, you're not that old. But like, Jude's mom's also up there. You know, like, you know, so, so I try to be as safe as possible.

But at the same time, I don't let it, like, put me in fear and like, you know, obviously, once on the Halo event, I wasn't afraid to go to it. But being careful is, is definitely the amount of fucking TikToks, bro, that I see with, with Karen's or so called Karen's just like not willing to wear a mask.

It's, you're always, you're going to find those people everywhere. It's just, it's inevitable. I just don't understand. I don't either. I don't understand.

Like, your freedom is not going to fucking suffer if you wear it for five minutes in the store, just a courtesy, just a courtesy to other people. I know. That's why I said in the beginning, like it, like I wore a mask, not because I was afraid, but because I was like, Hey, I'm, I'm a human and I respect humanity and I'm here as a community.

I wasn't thinking like, Oh, man, I'm, I'm, my freedoms are taking away. It's so dumb. All right. Let's get, let's get started. Where, let's start from the beginning. Okay. Where, born in race in California, like you said.

For it, uh, San Diego, Carl's bad, Carl's bad. Yeah. Yeah. Nice. I've never been to Carl's bad. I've been to San Diego. Nice. I was just recently in San Diego. No, I was in San Jose. But San Diego has really good Mexican food, too, right? Yeah. Do you feel disappointed living here now? And, and I don't know. I found, I don't know what to expect moving here. Yeah.

A lot of people tell me about, Oh, you need to try the Mexican food on Texas, text max. It's a, it's a big known thing here. And I don't know. The food here has been pretty. You can told you that. Don't be friends with it. I don't. Never again. So don't even listen. If they ever say it's like, Oh, you should watch this movie. Just know this. Yeah. No, it's, it's ass. All right. So tell me about, tell me about growing up. Like, uh, what was it like? I mean, I was pretty, where I, where I lived. I was very spoiled growing up. I was like five minutes from the beach.

Um, not like, it's, it's far enough to where you're not in downtown, but like, just far enough to where you don't hear anybody. Here's a really nice area. Um,

what I raised went to high school, middle school there. Um, graduate already played professionally. Um, in high school. No, I started how old are you? Sorry. I just turned 24. 24. Okay. All right. Okay. Um, no, yeah. I used to have to go to my buddy's house over

in elementary school, when the Xbox 360 Hail 3 just came out. And that's what I first got into Halo 3. How old were you around that time?

Like 10 11, 13. Yeah. Oh, my God. But I didn't start playing. I started, but when I even before that, though, I used to get
