So thanks for having us at your shop. Yeah, no, I appreciate you guys coming here. I feel like we've been like trying to link up to a certain degree over like a few different like years. Yeah. And I'm so to have you guys here. there's a lot of guys in the shop

Really?

Those guys? over like a few different like years um yeah and i'm so to have you guys here there's a lot of guys

in the shop are like those fucking are the sea boys here they're all super they're all super soaked so yeah

i'm i'm honored to be on the cast guys thank you that's awesome yeah it's uh it's funny it's it's

it's kind of gone full circle for us because i actually subscribe to you when you had like 7,000 subscribers. Whoa. Yeah. And I think I found you off of Evan Shanks. Yeah. He gave you a plug. He's like, yeah, this new guy is coming up. He's really good. And I went and started watching you. And then, you know, you just blown up sense. Isn't it crazy like what the community used to be like back then? Like, it was such a different world. Yeah. I miss it oftentimes. It was just different. It was, it was simpler, but also it was just, like, so, I don't know, it was awesome. Yeah. And it was all new, too. Yeah. Exactly. It was, was like the first time seeing somebody build something from nothing and then watching

somebody build a BRZ, you know, from stock to putting stickers on it to wheels.

It was back when like titles like like installing an exhaust, but do really well.

Exactly.

Like sticker bombing of front bumper when like now that you know there's so much like

I guess there's so much different forms of content so many different people everyone it's it's all

been done now so you got to really raise the bar that some people always ask me like how'd you do it

don't like honestly dude think about it this way imagine like investing in apple when Steve jobs

is a fucking nobody it's like that's that's what I feel like I did like I was in it at the right time. And it's so fucking hard now. Like there's there's there's, I mean, you guys did a good job coming up, but you guys had a very interesting angle. Yeah. Which I think like really was able to like separate you guys and really like gave you guys that edge that allowed you guys to get the success that you guys

that you earned but it's not easy it's very difficult now you want to know what's funny though

is so i initially bought a camera and my plan i was inspired by you uh to make car videos i had a Subaru

wrx and i quickly found out i don't have any money left to do mods with it. So I just started carrying it around and filming us and then it was we kind of just took this route with it. Yeah, that's fucking right. So I mean, I guess this podcast is about me, but what did, what was like the first? I'm curious to know like what was your guys' moment of like, oh, this is like actually creating somewhat of like a dollar and it was like friends. We're like, okay, like let's all just do this all of a sudden. I'm curious to know that backstory before we really jump in. It was the third video actually. So like I said, I initially bought it to, I was going to make car videos, but I didn't have anything to film so I started filming us on

the weekends one day one of our buddies bought this it's a shifter cart I don't know if you're

yeah yeah yeah yeah we were ripping it around and I was just filming it and we'd made a couple

videos before that and uh I just remember my handshake and I was like this is gold this is gonna be
