Welcome, everyone, to the RPSRink podcast.

0:05.4

I am Nick Shaw and joined by Dr. Mike.

0:08.4

What's up, man?

0:09.4

Not much, Mr. Nick Shaw.

0:10.7

I'm just finishing up the Vegas residency here last week in Vegas coming up.

0:15.4

And I just got sort of finishing done being sick.

0:19.5

I'm still tired, but the train keeps rolling. We're getting lots of YouTube collabs with all kinds of fun people, and they're going to have that on the channel very soon. So exciting stuff. How about you? Awesome, man. Yeah, I was also recently in Vegas. Yeah, a few people got sick. I heard a few people are saying they're under the weather now. February shit happens. It happens when you get a bunch of people together and all that. Yeah, man. Vegas was interesting. It's the biggest lie ever told in America. That Vegas is a crazy place. Well, that's true, though. It's not really a lie. In one square mile, yes.

0:55.1

No, that's true.

0:55.4

Yeah, yeah.

1:18.3

This is just like normal people living there. This is a giant suburb. Yeah. Go to Las Vegas. It's in the desert. It's warm. Everyone thinks it's warm. Man, it's really not. See, it's February in Las Vegas. Like the way we used to, back when we started trying to do this whole snowboarding thing, because when, you know, Crystal, I live in Michigan and so does Scott the video guy.

1:25.8

And we wanted to come and they're like, okay, it was a, the month of February, really, and most of January in Michigan is like, it was terrible.

1:46.0

And I look, okay, like, we can actually make it profitable to go somewhere else and film content because we live in the same house. We crush out content even faster than when we work, went home. And Scott has to drive over once a week. But we're like, okay, Vegas sounds great because there's great. Jared's there. There's tons of content, tons of great gyms. And we weren't wrong about that second part. We're sure, shit wrong about the fucking snowboarding part because we get there. And it's like, no, the first time we got into Vegas, it was like raining in 45 degrees. And we were like, I think we zig when we should have zagged somewhere. Is this really Vegas on the GPS? So it's, uh, it's been an interesting experience. So I think going forward will probably try to get to Vegas in a springtime, fall time for a few weeks to get all the collabs going. And then in the winter, we might just hop over to somewhere actually warm. As Vegas is not warm during the winter. That was illusory. Yeah, and throughout Scott, you guys should come down to Charlotte. But depending on when, it's not too bad. It's usually in like the 60s here during the day.

2:18.3

Sure.

2:19.9

Yeah, man, Vegas, really, really, really interesting.

2:22.2
