What's up guys? Welcome back to Views. What the fuck is up everybody?
What's up David? What the fuck is up with you Natalie?
Yo Jason and David, what the fuck is up with you guys?
Yo my boy David on mic one. Let's go.
Welcome back to Views. Jay, what's new?
Yo, you know we always talking about the hottest topics in here dog. As in, I've been getting— I don't get a lot of Cameos.
Oh, you're on Cameo.
But there's one guy who has bought 32 consecutive weeks of Cameos. Whoa. And I'm like, is he building a doc? Like, what?
Oh, that's funny. So Cameo is an app where, like, they basically give you a script of what to say.
Yeah, yeah. It'll be like, hey, my friend David Dobrik, he really likes you. Can you just say happy birthday? Stuff like that.
Yeah, but what's interesting about Cameo is you'll have the camera on and the words will be on there like it's karaoke. Yeah, like a teleprompter. Sorry. Yeah, you'll be looking at it. That's so funny that I called it karaoke. I'm so funny.
No, it literally is like karaoke. It gives you a script.
It's called a teleprompter.
But it's actually really nice. So it's like you can read what they ask.
Yeah, so it's literally like, hi, Stacy, here. You're not going through the best time right now.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So this guy asked you to do it 30 times?
But some people buy them to goof on the people too.
Right.
Of course. He literally is on his third. I just did 32nd week.
But what is he asking for? Is it different every time?
Every time it's different.
Wait, how much do you charge for one of these things?
I charge $75. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Yeah.
Wait, wait, wait, wait. This guy, $75 times 3, that's what?
Yeah, and let me shout him out. His name's John Paul.
$2,300?
Damn.
And yeah, and Cameo takes a cut, so it's like $56.
I understand. Jay has to explain that he's not making much. And then taxes, Dave. You have to think about taxes. So really I'm left with, I need to borrow money.
Okay, $2,300. I'm rolling in it.
Okay, so $2,300 this one guy has sent you.
Yeah.
Okay, what is he asking you to do?
Every week it's a new question that's in my wheelhouse.
Did—
what was your favorite moment in the vlogs? Did you study comedy? Who are some of your favorite comedians? And he'll be like, he'll be like, Jean-Paul, back for week 26. He's like, this, this time I want to know what are your favorite comedies of all time? Can you rank them top 5? And then, and then I do it.
Wait, is Jean-Paul his name?
Yeah, Jean-Paul's his name.
Sean Paul.
John. John. Oh, John. But I say John Paul.
That's amazing. So every week he gives you $75.
Yeah.
If you're working like a minimum wage job, that's like a day of work almost.
Yeah.
Or it is. Yes. So, so he—
I mean, I don't know what he makes as much money on Cameo as I do on Facebook.
Wait, that's crazy. This guy really likes you. Yeah.
But do you think he's like going to build like a dock or something? Like a vertical dock?
Like, what would the doc be if he's only at— Oh, that's interesting. Oh, like you're being questioned for the doc.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like in the— I mean, like as a confessional. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, that's really funny.
But has he asked you anything like personal? Like that is—
No, nothing salacious, nothing personal, nothing, you know, like completely like above board.
Have you sent him any pictures like of you? Have you done a cameo in your underwear or anything weird?
Well, the last few have been in the bathtub.
Oh, well, that makes sense.
So I don't know.
Are you allowed to send nudity on Cameo?
Nudity? No.
No. Right. Like if you're a porn star, you can't be like—
No, no, no.
You can't charge like $1,000?
That's what OnlyFans is for.
I don't think you can do that. Oh yeah, wait, you can.
That's literally what the whole thing is for.
Yeah, no, no, you're totally right. Damn, that's crazy. You know, I was approached. I know the Cameo owners really well.
Yeah.
Like I was approached, what, how long ago to invest in that company?
Well, before I was even here.
Before Natalie, like way before. Like I'm talking I'm talking like first year of vlogging.
How much money did they want?
I have no idea. But it was like, but I don't even, like, I don't know. I don't like saying it publicly 'cause there's like a definite answer and they're probably listening to this and they're like, that's not what we would've given you. It was a lot less. But in my head, thinking back to it, this was a baby company. Like I think I would've had like an actual percentage to 5% if I did it properly. But I personally never wanted to do Cameos. So I thought it wouldn't work, which is so stupid. That's the kind of investor I was. I would get pitched shit all the time. You could come pitch me Uber and I'd be like, well, I'd never take an Uber, so I don't want to invest. Like, it was so dumb. But like, Cameo is a fucking genius idea, even though I would never like actually be on there.
Yeah.
Like, given the cameos. But now it's worth like, what's the valuation at? They sold it over a billion dollars. Over a billion dollar company.
Oh my God.
Yeah. So real. They crushed it. And what they do, I think, now is like, they'll like, which is genius. Like, let's say you're a fan of like Peppa Pig or some shit. They'll go to the creators of Peppa Pig. They'll license it. And then parents will just buy Peppa Pig telling their kids shit all fucking day. So you'll have Peppa Pig going, go clean your room. And then you show it to the kids. The fucking parents just spent $5 on it. The kid gets the room cleaned. The Peppa Pig is AI-generated or whatever. So, you know, I mean, everyone's happy. It's a cartoon. Yeah. And you can just crank those out. No one's having to record them.
I got offered a percentage in a wine company when I started my podcast, and then I tasted it and it was just awful.
Now when people ask me to invest, what do I do now?
You just say no.
Oh, really?
No.
Unless it's a movie.
There was a period in my life where I was just saying yes for like a couple of months because I was like, I got it.
There was. Yeah. We were being hit with several things and you were just like, I guess. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay.
Because I think it was actually Cameo that made me rethink everything. I was like, okay, I obviously don't understand a fucking thing about business, so I'm just going to invest in anything that anybody offers me.
Is anything panned out so far? Anything doing well?
ChargeFuse is doing great. Yeah, that's good. I invested in this thing called blooming tables.
Yeah, that's what I was just thinking of.
Flowers.
Is that doing well?
I'm not sure. No, it's like a table that there's glass and then underneath the glass is like you can plant plants underneath it. So it's like a living table.
I have it. I know it's beautiful. I have it where when you walk in where the keys are, like right by the door. You've seen it. You can put like cactuses and like cool shrubs underneath the table. So I invested in that. I've invested in a bunch of like random seltzers.
In the world of AI, you went with blooming tables.
Well, this was not in the world of AI.
Well, that's where we're at now. Those are the things that are blowing up.
No, I know. This was like 6 years ago.
Okay. Okay.
But yeah, no, I'm not the best investor. I mean, obviously I invested into AMC, lost all my money there. Every time I invest, it's very, very bad. I'm the worst business person ever.
I went to a wedding this weekend.
Me too.
How was it?
It was so fun.
I went and Naveen's brother picked us up from the airport and he's like, I don't know, he's just like 28, just a kid, you know? He's just like kind of— he puts on kind of a tough—
Did you say Naveen's brother?
Yeah, Naveen's brother. Naveen's younger brother.
How old is he?
He's like 28.
That's crazy.
Yeah. You didn't know she had a brother? Why is that crazy? I got a brother and sister.
I got two sisters. It's like a pretty big fact. Like, I don't know that she's a brother my age.
Yeah. Yeah. And so he puts on kind of like a hard act, you know, he's like, yo, what up, my boy? How's it going, dog? You know? So he picked us up from the airport, which was really nice. And he gets in the car and he's like, it's a nice car. It's a BMW. I'm like, this car is really nice. And he's like, yeah, yeah. You know, you know how I do it. You know, I got a lease.
No, he doesn't talk like that.
Yeah, he talks like— that's how he talks. And I'm like, what's going on in Houston? And he's like, you know, Houston's my city. Houston's my city. Like that. And I'm like, oh, cool, cool. He's like, yo, I've been going to the gym, you know, going to the gym, getting those gains. He's like calling up little Bettys, calling up honeys, you know. You know, I always got a girl coming to the spot. And then he's driving, and then he goes, hey, hey, yo, I'm about to pass out. I got pulled over. He had taken a Zinn in his mouth. Wait, what? He's like driving on the highway and he's like, yo, I gotta pull over, man. I'm about to pass out.
Wait, what?
I'm about to pass out. And Naveen's like, and he's like, Mahmoud, Mahmoud, like, what's going on? What's going on? He's like, yeah, hey, I can't— my eyes are closing. I can't see straight, dog.
I can't.
And we're like, what?
What? What?
She's like, just pull the car over. Pull the car over. So he pulls over and he's like, yo, He's like, damn, I think I had one too many Zen, man.
Oh, that's really—
and then I had to get out and drive. It was so funny, such a switch.
Does he ever— did he drop the act after that? Or was he nice in the backseat?
He's like, yo, I'm sorry about that, guys, you know.
You don't think he'll ever listen to this?
Uh, yeah, no, I don't think he could listen. He can hear it. We were talking about it all fucking weekend. And then, so then I had to drive and he was making fun of me when I drove.
That's really—
I guess I call out like every exit when I drive.
That's really fun. Wait, what wedding did you go to?
It's just, uh, Navid's cousin. Big Lebanese wedding, 350 people.
Wow, damn, a lot of dancing.
Yeah, they came out with the swords and—
with swords?
Yeah, yeah, like traditional Middle Eastern wedding.
Guys, I'm super excited to see— I'm super excited to see The Great Big Cow perform one day. That's, uh, Jason's child's band. Uh, huh?
GBC.
GBC. And whenever that happens, I hope SeatGeek is still there because, I mean, come on, SeatGeek is the best way to buy tickets. They have 35 million downloads. It's the number one rated ticketing app. Let that sink in. There are more than 70,000 events listed on SeatGeek, including concerts, sports festivals, and more. Right now you get tickets— this is saying right now, so maybe in the future, Great Pacal— but as of now, Tate McRae, Doechii, Reneé Rapp, Somber, Jonas Brothers.
Damn, I'm going to see Halsey Thursday night with Natalie.
Really?
Yeah.
Damn.
Double date.
Natalie and her are close friends.
Yes, they are.
Not really. They've only met once.
Yeah, but they seem like they were sisters when they met.
Natalie has her on her close friends and she'll watch her close friends, but this is as close as they get to being close friends, if you know what I mean. Okay, get those plants out of the group chat this fall and use code VIEWS10 for 10% off your Sea Geek tickets. Yes, a young person wrote this, David. Lol. What the fuck?
That wasn't me.
What the fuck? Is somebody flirting with me from the SeatGeek team?
Someone's messing with you on the SeatGeek team.
That's literally written into the ad read and the ad read looks as normal as, whoa, what the fuck? Get those plans out of the group chat. That's fine. Damn, they're talking to me through the SeatGeek thing.
Is there a phone number there?
No, there's not. Okay. That's 10% off tickets with promo code VIEWS10. Make sure you click the link in the description to download the app and have the code automatically added to your account so you can use it later. And if you want, David, I'll come over tonight and fuck your brains out. What the fuck is this? I have no— okay, that one I made up. Thank you, SeatGeek. Code VIEWS10 for 10% off tickets on SeatGeek. Again, that's VIEWS10 for 10% off tickets on SeatGeek. Go, guys, go. This week was the only week I have been alone in the house.
Oh.
For, um, I don't know. I'm not exaggerating. This is like, I don't think I've been alone in maybe like 4 or 5 years.
Yeah.
It was crazy.
Where is everybody?
You were gone. Yeah, you were at a wedding. Natalie was at a wedding. Yeah, John was in Portland, right? Alex was DJing in Santa Monica for 2 nights, so he was gone. And Ilya doesn't live here.
Wow.
And no one else was here at all. It was fucking wild. 2 days by myself. I could not believe how difficult it was for me. I mean, I was just walking back and forth. It was—
I watched— What did you do? What did you do exactly?
Well, I, I— Well, first I sat out in the living room, and then I was like, okay, I'm gonna try to use the movie room. I've never used it, so I'm gonna go watch it, but I'm gonna go put on a movie. And I sat down into the movie room right where we are right now. I sat down, and then Alex came back from DJing at like 11 PM.
Yeah.
And Alex left me there in the movie room, and he goes— he comes in, I'm like, Al! And he goes, you're still in the fucking movie room? It was 9 hours later.
Wow.
I was sitting in the movie room and the movie was still— I was still about to hit play on it because I got so sidetracked with TikTok that I just got sucked in on my phone for 9 hours. Wow. Swiping away. I didn't even nap. I was just laying there for that long because I had nothing to do. It was fucking wild. And then, and then he was so confused. I was like, yeah, I don't know. I've just been here. Time has, like, flown by. I have no idea what's going on. I was like, okay, I should probably start the movie. And then I hit the movie, I press play, and then the movie room like fucking malfunctioned or something, froze like 6 minutes in. And then I just went upstairs and I went to bed. That was my whole day. That was my whole day. And then the next day, same thing happened. Alex had to go DJ, completely home alone. And I watched, I watched, um, I watched, um, this movie called Gods and Exodus with Christian Bale. Yeah, um, it's where he plays Moses.
Yeah.
And then I watched an episode of Gossip Girl because it just came on right away. I've never seen it. I was like, okay, let me give this a shot. And then I watched this movie called Relay, which is really interesting. And then I watched the movie The Martian with Matt Damon, like straight in a row. I was just sat in bed. I had nothing to do. I've never done anything like this in my entire life.
That's crazy.
Yeah. Weren't people coming by to play pickleball?
No, no one came by. Nothing. I pickleballed with Jay Shetty in the morning the first day. Jay Shetty came by. I love that guy. Hung out with him for a little, and then he left. And then I was like, just solo dolo. I was just doing it.
Just raw dogging the day all by yourself.
What did you think about that? Being by yourself just made me realize how much I need somebody.
Like, not even like a friend, but like, I just need to, like, fucking find somebody to like— like, I could have easily done that with a significant other. Like, just like cuddle with. I love cuddling. I'm such a cuddler. Okay. How was your wedding? Sorry.
Oh, my wedding was great. It was one of my high school girlfriends. My last high school girlfriend is officially married. I am officially the last single one left.
As it was written.
Yeah.
Any guys?
No, nothing. Not a single one. Everybody there was like, like married. Really married? Everybody at the wedding was married. There were like no single men. Um, yeah, that was interesting.
Sometimes when I look at weddings, I go, this is so silly.
I know, like the theatrics of it all. It like is a little silly.
They had it, but I mean, like the wedding is fine, but like they had a horse at this one. The horse brought her 10 feet and then the horse was done. You know what I mean?
That I actually don't get.
I don't get that. And then there was like a lot of pictures, and like the pictures went on for like a couple.
But I also think that we just have such a different perspective because we've experienced so much in our lifetime. And I mean, I don't know who these people—
seeing a horse— no, I know, but like the most extravagant thing ever.
But I used to think like that.
Like, I used to think, oh, right, right, right, right, right.
You want the horse because it's a big deal.
Yes. I'm like, this is my fucking day. I'm getting a horse, I'm getting fireworks, I'm getting all this shit.
And now we think it's like a little tacky weird, like too much.
Now I'm like, I just want to sit down and— no, I don't. I want to party my ass off. But like, I just like, I think about it differently now. Like, I don't think about it that intensely because I've experienced so much.
The way I experienced— the way I've experienced love once. Let me take you back, guys. Let me take you back down memory lane.
Jealous, master of love.
What do you mean jealous? You're jealous?
I said tell us.
Have you been in love?
Of course.
I don't think so. I just feel like—
he loves to tell me this.
I just like—
why could you say that to somebody? You asked me that today too, if I've been in love.
Yeah, but I didn't say no, you haven't.
That's true.
I just said, I don't know.
Sounds like somebody wants to be in love.
I love being in love. I think it's so crazy because you just become the fucking biggest loser. Like, you're writing poems, you're getting Hallmark cards, and like, and not because you like need to do it, but just because it's right. You're just like, I feel this, I need to write a poem right now. I need to rhyme things and tell her how much I love her and rhyme things.
I used to write Naveen poems.
It's just And it's like, and you love doing it. And then it's like, you're just so happy to see them read it. And you're like, do you like what I did? And like a little, like, I don't know. I love that shit. It's so weird. It's like the most unexplainable emotion. 'Cause it's like, it's the cheesiest thing ever. It's the cheesiest fucking thing. And that's why, like when you're saying like, you don't really get weddings. I don't know. I really get them. But I also do think that like a wedding that's less extravagant, like would really do it for me. Like just like a wedding, even if it's just like the two of you and you go off and you have like the most romantic like honeymoon getaway type thing. I think that's a good wedding too.
Yeah, I agree.
But I also don't think a wedding—
can you tell me why you think I've never been in love?
Let me keep going. I also think— I also don't think—
yeah, yeah, yeah.
Can I say one more thing about this wedding? I also don't think a wedding— and this is— this is— I'm tying this into a personal experience right now because Ilya is having his 30th birthday party, right? And he doesn't want to. He doesn't want to celebrate being 30. And like, and I said this, and I think we all thought I was kidding. I was even like kidding in the moment, but I was like, that's selfish.
Yeah.
And it kind of does, do you know, do you kind of agree that like, I know it's his birthday, but like, we want to celebrate you. And like, I think same things with weddings. Like, I think weddings, they are for the bride and then for the groom. Um, But I also think they're for everybody. Like, they're for everybody to, like, celebrate you. So I don't— I don't— I don't know. I don't know. I don't know where I'm going with that.
You brought it back to Ilya. Birthday is different than a wedding, right?
Yeah, a little bit different. But I think that's what I was tying it to. I actually don't know why I was saying that. But do you agree with that? That, that notion that, like—
Yeah, no, I do. I definitely—
I mean, do you think he is a dick for not wanting to?
Of course. That's all I want to celebrate you. Can we backtrack for a second? Can you explain to me why you think I've never been in love?
Do you know what I love about the new Porsche Taycan? Um, why I think you've never been in love? Yeah, let's unpack this. Same reason that you've never seen me in a relationship. It's not, it's not actually based on any like fact. It's just like I've never seen you, I've never seen you gush over anybody. I've just seen you like just like do the motions of like a relationship.
I don't think she'll show that side to you.
That's, that's, that's all I'm saying. So I've just never seen it, so like I can't like—
Yeah, you don't really, you don't really like allow for that side of me to like blossom and balloon. You're gonna be like, Natalie, what the fuck are you saying?
Maybe Natalie's a very interesting person without you.
I'm trying to think.
It's like she's interesting with you, but you get a different side of Natalie when you're not around.
Yeah, I'm trying to think, like, what is that exactly?
It's her real being.
You've gotten that real being through.
Yeah, like, it's almost shocking when you get it. Like, I, I can't think of an exact place, but like, I've definitely gone somewhere and you're not there. Maybe like over COVID, like when we were all kind of separated a little bit and like, you see Natalie and like, when you go to like a farm. Yeah, if you go to a farm or maybe like Natalie throws like a party and you're not there. I've been to like Natalie birthday parties and you're not there for whatever reason. You're not there. Maybe you come later. That first hour that you're not there.
Incredible.
It's incredible. Yeah. You're like, you're like, oh my God, she has like, she's like really sweet and she has like feelings and like, okay. And she's like trying to make sure everyone has a good time. And it's, it's kind of cute.
No, the best way to explain that, Natalie, as much as I take full responsibility for her being stressed out when I'm around, is, is when she's drunk.
Yeah.
Like, I remember Mike and Nick, like, we're like so iffy about Natalie. And as like people that have never, like, gotten to hang out with Natalie, they don't understand that she's like the fucking best.
Yes.
The The— I will fucking— 10 toes down, the best person to go out with. The best. Thank you. Like, just like so accommodating to everybody. First of all, it's impossible to go out without her. Like, like, it's just like she came to Mike's bachelor party, right? Like, that's just how, like, important she was.
Yeah.
But like, yeah, Mike and Mike went out with her in Paris and they stayed out till like 7, 8 in the morning riding bikes to the Eiffel Tower.
We're not going back to the rooms. Get on a scooter.
And it's just like, oh yeah, riding Lime scooters or whatever it was. And like, that is like Natalie. Like, Natalie will just like— the way she locks in with you when she's drunk, it's like she's on coke. Like, it is— she like just will talk your ear off in a kitchen and like, not like an annoying way. She'll like completely listen to you and like be so invested in whatever you have to say. It is the most incredible version of Natalie I've ever seen in my time. It's shocking.
Why? Because she's just there to have a good time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, I know her pretty well and I talk to her every day. Like, even sometimes when, like, we're drunk and, like, it's very hard for me to be in a good drunk mood because, like, I don't function like her. Like, alcohol just, like, puts me to sleep or I just, like, want to get out of here, want to go home.
Yeah.
But, like, there'll be moments where she'll be talking. I'll be like, this is really fun. And I'll be, like, shocked. I'll be like, I talk to her every day, but, like, I'm, like, really locked in right now.
Am I in love with her?
No, no, no. It's not like that. It's just like she's a really good friend. Yeah, what, what, why are you laughing?
It's just funny. She just good friend.
Yeah, I don't know.
Uh, we should, we should make it a little tour. Natalie coming to your city soon for a little party tour.
Yeah, okay, cool.
I'll open up.
You guys can do the Views podcast and then I'll do the after party with everybody.
Yeah, but you're, you're, you, yeah, you got, you have to like, um That would be so funny. Like a group of 4 or 5 people.
What do you mean, to go out with?
Yeah.
Oh, so I feel comfortable?
Yeah, because you— no, you— no, no, no, I'm saying like you're good when like the pressure's off and you're like turned off. Like that's what you need.
Oh, okay, I see.
Like you can't just be like— that'll be work if you're doing a tour.
Yeah, we can't bring David with us.
That's fair, that's fair.
It has to just be me and you. Oh, okay, because he's always in a bad mood.
I know, it's so fucking annoying.
I'm not always in a bad mood.
You're like—
you were in New York, you're a bad mood that day.
I don't like leaving.
Okay, well just shut the fuck up and let everyone else enjoy it.
When we couldn't get the Tesla, you're upset.
Oh my God.
Uh, yeah, Jay, when we couldn't get the Tesla, losing my shit.
That was so funny because we woke up that morning and I was like— Natalie's like, I'm banned from Turo, which I thought was so funny.
Oh yeah.
And I was like, okay, I'll come back and help.
You're banned from all those stupid apps.
Apparently people don't like when we give away Teslas.
Oh, that's why you're banned?
Yeah, yeah, because we wrapped the Tesla like Dispo Green.
That's so fucking funny.
There's no damage to it.
That's so funny you did that. What? That's crazy. That's why you're banned from Turo?
Yes.
Did you hear this?
Oh yeah, well, we—
you were asleep.
I was hearing about this at like 9 AM trying to figure it out, and I couldn't. I can't even call Turo. Like, my number is completely blocked from the entire program.
They've erased you.
Natalie took a Tesla when we were giving away a disc poker. So like, when we, when we do, when we do car, when we do car giveaways, yeah, um, always, every time you see a car like in the driveway or whatever, they're all rented cars. So then when the person actually wins it, they get to decide, do you want the money or do you want the car? Some people want, want money over cars, which totally makes sense. So none of those cars are purchased yet, so we rent the cars. So Natalie rented a car and we were doing a Dispo giveaway at the time.
Yeah.
So you took the rental and you wrapped it green? Yeah. That's fucking crazy.
I had no other choice. I didn't know what else to do.
Did you tell them?
No.
Oh, that's really— Oh, I remember this. And then their app, their app was— their Tesla app was like, yo, your car's in a body shop.
Yeah, yeah.
Being taken apart. That's crazy. Yeah, you should be banned from Turo.
It wasn't being taken apart. They were just putting the sticker on it.
No, not taken apart, but like all the doors were open.
Yeah. And the Tesla has little cameras all around it. So I like saw the people, whatever. I mean, the guy, I don't even think complained or really knew. One of the guys, because we did it to 3 Teslas at the time, we had 3 Teslas we were bringing around everybody's homes.
Yeah.
One of the guys ended up, he loved it so much. He was like, fuck yeah, I have one of the green Dispo Teslas. And he kept the wrap for like ever.
Wait, you gave the car back with the wrap on it?
Well, he noticed it before.
Yeah, he noticed it.
And he's like, can I keep the green?
Yeah.
It's really funny.
But I guess whoever I got the car from did not, wasn't—
Did not appreciate that you took his— $30,000 car and wrapped it green.
There was no damage or anything.
No, I understand. I know that you'd cover it if it wasn't, but I think that's a pretty crazy thing to do. We were at the club the other day.
Yeah.
And I was so drunk and like, I never really do this, but I was just like, I had my camera because I was like going to try to vlog, which is impossible because I was drunk. Yeah, but, but I did get one bit with Zane, so I took the SD card out, I put it in my pocket, I just put the camera down in the middle of the club. I was like, I'm going to come get it after. And whoa, I never got it. I never got the camera. I just left it there completely lost.
Did you get drunk?
I got obliterated.
Oh my God, I left him.
He was being so annoying. I was just like, I gotta go.
You left him because he was so drunk?
Yeah.
Oh, it wasn't— I was not being annoying. I wasn't even near you. What are you talking about?
You literally—
we weren't even with each other.
I wasn't even with you.
You're right. That's crazy.
He's just like, no, I could just like send say. Like, I know, like, once you get—
we were literally in different rooms.
No, but at the start we were like together. It started at the dinner where you were like drinking, and then we went down for drinks downstairs. And like, David starts like, when he like gets drunk, he starts like just asking me like to do random things that like are not necessary.
Like what?
But he just like feels the need to like ask me to do things. There he, he wanted me to like go outside. I was like fully in the middle of a conversation with somebody.
Yeah.
And David was like, Nah, I need you to go outside and get the camera. And I was like, okay. And we're not vlogging at this place. You can't even bring—
this wasn't a crazy ask.
No, this wasn't that bad.
But Heath had to go home. It's a members club. Natalie's a member. My camera is in my car that I'm letting Heath take home because he's sober.
Yeah.
So I'm like, nah, can you go outside because you're the member? Can you go out and grab the camera and either bring it in or move it because he's taking the car?
Yeah.
That's not that crazy.
Okay.
No, that wasn't that crazy.
Dude, you just fucking— are you just making shit? Did you just make up like the worst night ever with me? You're like, you're a fucking piece of shit.
I don't know. I actually think it's just like PTSD from like—
No, I'm not a good drunk. I'm not fun.
He's just like annoying. Like he just starts like wandering like a fucking lost zombie, like a lost puppy. And I don't want to have to like look for you. I don't have to take care of you. I don't have to worry about like, where the fuck is David? Is he drunk in a corner somewhere? Or did he like make it home?
Yeah. And I'm like really like, I'm not like the highest energy.
Yeah, I'm like, and then, oh, and then, and then he like, when he starts to get drunk, he's like, let's go here, let's go there. And I'm just like, I'm content where I'm at. But then he's like, we have to go.
Like, oh yeah, the second I feel a little bit buzzed, I have to start moving.
Yeah.
Or else I'm going to fall asleep. And that is when I get annoying. That's like, we got to go, we got to go, we got to go. Or if there was dancing or anything, then I'd stay. But there usually never is in LA club anyway. Then the next day I had to order a new camera.
Okay.
And the camera I use is a Canon 80D. It doesn't exist anymore because they discontinued it. It's just been a while, but it's a very specific camera because the mic— let me explain to you for the people that like the technical side of things. The Canon 80D is the only 80D— there's now a 90D and maybe even a 100D. I don't even know what's come out since then, but the 80D is the only one that has two or multi-directional mics on the top of the camera. So when I'm vlogging, it's perfect because the mics aren't only pointed to one way. So if like Jason standing behind me and he says something, I catch what he says perfectly, whereas the 90D doesn't have the best, like, omnidirectional mics or whatever, right? So I'm only catching what's in front of me. So I always get the 80D, and Taylor had to, like, order the 80D from, like, a random guy on Facebook Marketplace. And I think she paid him using, like, either my credit card or my Venmo. And he goes, oh my God, this is for David Dobrik. Like, I bought this camera, like, 7 years ago because of David Dobrik. Well, I wanted to start vlogging. School, and I never got around to it. And now I'm selling it to David. Like, how crazy is that?
That's really cool.
It's like really funny. Yeah, full circle for that camera. So now my new vlog camera has reached its destiny.
How are the vlogs going?
So good. Bangers.
Bangers.
I'm good.
You happy doing it?
Really, really excited about the next one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, actually, I've filmed nothing for the next one, so there's just one bit that I really enjoyed. My mom's finally in it. It's really exciting. We surprised her with her favorite celebrity. That's coming out Wednesday, next Wednesday. And then I'm really excited about that. And that— but that type of stuff is so hard to come by, you know? So like, we had that bit and I'm really excited to put that out there.
Do you see that text I sent you about the Roadster?
Yes.
I have a friend.
I don't know if I believe it.
I have a friend who does huge news. I have a friend named Dennis who does Tesla content. Really great guy. Remember when I brought the Cybertruck over here?
Yes. He was like one of the first people to have a Cybertruck. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So he sent me a text. He said, rumor that the Roadster is coming out Q1.
That would be crazy.
Insanity.
Yeah.
You're telling me? Yeah, it's crazy.
What will you do?
So, guys, the Roadster is a car I bought full price 7 years ago. 8 years ago.
Yeah.
I paid $250,000, 8 years for it. If you're a fan of the podcast, this is probably our most repeated story ever. This is like a big ongoing thing, and apparently it's coming. Yeah, and it's been supposed to come out for 7, 8 years.
Will you sell it?
Well, Tesla does this weird thing where if you sell it within the first 2 years, they sue you. Oh, you have to like sign something. That was for the Cybertruck. I think it would be very rude of Tesla to do that with this car because you've waited so long. Because you've— it's not waiting, it's the fact that Tesla tied up $250,000 of mine for 8 years. Like, that's crazy. That should be like— because like, yeah, if it was Tesla stock, it'd be like $10 million now. Like, that should be— you should have full rein. If like, if the Roadster comes out, I have a feeling it's gonna go for double, maybe triple on the market.
Wow.
And I do think that it will be— I'll probably make a video with it. Drive it around the city. I don't know. See what the prices are going for. Maybe sell it if it's not illegal. If Tesla gives me like some weird embargo, then I won't. But I am also really excited.
Yeah.
And at this point in my head, it's like a free car because that money's been gone for so long. So I don't know. What do you think? Should I keep it or sell it?
If you can sell it for triple, you should sell it.
Yeah. Okay. I could kind of see that. Probably buy it back.
Speaking of cars, Nat, how's your Ferrari?
Oh, it's incredible.
I think you should take it back.
I know, you keep telling me that, that I need to return it.
Um, Natalie has absolutely no buyer's remorse. It's— Jason's like, Jason's like doubling down on it. Yeah, Natalie's like— I've asked her, like, I was like, so how do you think about the car? Like, now that everything's done, she's like, it's fucking incredible. I'm like, oh hell yeah. Like, no buyer's remorse.
Every time you get in it, you're psyched.
Oh my God, yeah.
I've had that with cars, I guess.
I mean, it's like, it's like just the best looking, best driving, and the, like, the best part about it is like I had I mean, I was planning to buy a car, but I had no intention of getting that car. And it just ended up being perfect. I know I said this in the video that I felt like the stars were aligning or whatever, that everything just happened perfectly that day. But I really feel like it did.
You're starting to send me a bunch of car things now too.
Well, now I'm getting a bunch of cars on my feed because I must know that I have a new car.
I was thinking, I asked this to Alex the other day. I was like, why is it that I enjoy materialistic things so much?
Much.
Like, like, I— my goals in my life are like set on milestones of like, I can't wait to get this watch, or I can't wait to get this car. And like, and like, when I watch a lot of billionaires being interviewed, a lot of the consensus is always like, money doesn't— when you get all this stuff, you realize what is it for.
Yeah.
But every time I get a new thing, I love it to pieces. Every single watch I've ever gotten, I cherish so much. Like, I'll just, I'll just stare at it when I'm in my room. Like, I just love it. I love material. I just, I think they're so cool. And I was wondering, and Alex brought up a good point. It's like, well, maybe because you're like, maybe because I'm fulfilled in so many other places. Like, I, like, I'm like really fulfilled. Like, friendship has never been a concern in my head. Yeah, I've never— I've been very lucky where I've never been like—
You're fulfilled creatively.
Yeah. And I'm never like— but I've never like— I've never not had a great group of friends. I've always had the best group of friends and like the best growing up experience where like the real things, like my group of friends was so great that it fueled my job. Do you know what I mean? So like, I don't know. I feel like maybe that's why I like a little bit of a skewed world perception and why I still love materialistic things so much.
Because you have everything else.
It's because I have the other things and I'm so grateful for that. So lucky.
You're so lucky.
Why do you look like you're about to kill me?
No, no, no. I mean, like, something like that really means a lot to me. Like, it's like when you gave Alex the chance to be a DJ. It's not like— you know what I mean? It's like that phrase, like, you know, you give a man—
Yeah, you teach a man how to fish.
Yeah, you teach a man how to fish. Yeah, he fished forever. Like, that to me is like, that really gets me going. It's like if you said to me, oh, Jay, do you want a million dollars or a new stand-up act? You know what I mean?
You'd take the million.
No, I wouldn't.
Really?
No, I wouldn't.
So what's your point?
My point is that those—
because that almost sounds backwards.
My point is, is that that's what I'm taking from that story, is like, it's like, oh, that's the thing that gets me really jazzed, like good friends and like having like a creative— being fulfilled creatively. I mean, it's everything.
Oh wow, that's what you took from the story?
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
It's everything. And it allows you to enjoy more expensive things. Let's say I hit the lottery tomorrow and I'm like, I got a Ferrari and I get a nice house. Would I be fulfilled? Would I be happy? You know what I mean?
I mean, I think that—
I think it's like when I lived—
I don't know you, What? I don't know you personally, but yes, I would be fucking off the fucking— I'd be fucking—
Yeah, because you've done so much already, I guess. I don't know what I mean. Like, if you had never—
But if I was you, I'd be like, not only do I have a wife, but I have an ex-wife and I have two kids. Like, I'd be like, I would— I don't know. I'm just like pretty good at seeing the positive in things. And like, I feel like if I— I think you're like a perpetually, like, always, like, concerned and like worried.
Yeah.
And you're like your mother. You're just always stressed.
Yeah.
Well, that's—
and I think that's why maybe the lottery wouldn't alleviate everything for you. But I don't know. I don't know. I don't want to take words out of your mouth.
Well, it's kind of like when I was— my first marriage, everything was fine, but I wasn't happy. I wanted to go out.
That's different though.
I wanted to go out and do something.
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
I wanted to accomplish something.
Okay. But yeah. Okay. Now we're getting into a little bit of a different— but okay. I guess you're saying that like, you're— that I've accomplished everything I've wanted to where I can find the joy in these materialistic things. Yeah, I could see that.
Yeah, I don't know.
I mean, I wish I was better. I wish I was like less concerned. I just live such a—
I can't wait till you go to heaven, dude, or wherever you go.
Oh my God, I saw someone die the other day.
Jesus is gonna be like, dude, you're a fucking freak, bro. That's how he's gonna talk to you. You're fucking weird. Why are you always stressed? Why are you— look at you. And he's gonna play back a video of you walking into my house all stressed and shit with your laptop and your coffee almost spilling. Look how fucking crazy you look. I tried to tell you through David when he made fun of you, but you just didn't understand.
I know.
Yeah, no, I think, I think you gotta—
What did I do today when I walked in?
You just looked so— It looked like there was a tornado chasing you. It's like, it's like we've been yelling at you for like 6 hours to get over to the house. Yeah, where the fuck are you, Jay? Where the fuck are you? Like, your kids are being tied up in here. Like, it's like literally like the craziest thing was going on. That's— that was the look on your face.
It's hard for me because when I come over here, it's like I'm— there's other things that aren't happening in my life, you know what I mean? That's what's hard about it.
There's other things that aren't happening in your life.
It's like I have— I have other things that I have to do to make money. So when I come over here, I'm— I'm harried.
But this is all— this you're just like kind of just explaining. You know what I mean? You are glad— you will forever, forever, forever, forever— you have been damned for eternity as glass half empty. Nothing will ever resolve it, ever. I'm so sorry to say. The lottery, the lottery will do nothing for a man like you but bring you more problems. I'm so sorry, but there's nothing. It's just— it is what it is. I mean, am I right or am I right? Um, you will find a way to take the lottery and spin it and be like, I cannot believe I am paying the government $140 million in taxes. Like, it's just how you are, which I think is great because it's gotten you to where you are, and that's why you're so hardworking.
Yeah.
Because it's like, it's never enough, and you gotta keep going. And you're one of the most hardworking people I've ever met. So I think it's a blessing and a curse.
Yeah.
But I think you're gonna have that forever unless you go get hypnotized or something. I mean, am I right or am I? I'm being a little bit dramatic for the sake of the pod.
Yeah, I am.
I've been trying to be more carefree. Even the day we vlogged on Sunday, I was carefree.
Um, I don't remember what happened. Where were we? Where were we?
The day you said I was acting weird.
Yeah, for sure, for sure.
Oh yeah, I was in a good mood. Oh, that day, like the robot day.
Yes, yes, yes. You were acting so weird, and you, and you were like, it's because I went on a run this morning. I was like, that's not it, there's something else. I still don't know what it is. Maybe it was the run. But yeah, no, that was like a—
no, that was me like making a choice. I'm like, okay, I'm going to go over there and I'm going to be—
that was like hangout Jason, carefree. But yeah, it was like, it was like, oh, we're going to go see a movie. Let's go.
Yeah.
And like, and I think you've always said something like when my kids like go to college, I'll be blah, blah, blah. But like, I think it's like you just remind me of myself in terms of like when I said, when I said I was going to start working out more when I'd build this Price Picks gym here.
Yeah, yeah.
Bunch of bullshit. I haven't fucking touched it yet. Um, but like, um, yeah, I don't know.
You lost everything, huh? You lost all your gains?
Yeah, I've really lost my muscle.
Really?
I want to get back into working out. Um, a lot of people are using the gym, which I'm stoked about. It's almost like— it's almost too many people. It's not like a private gym anymore. It's like a public gym.
Well, you invite literally everyone to come over and use it. You just did it.
No, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I want people to use it. It makes me feel so good about investing in it and spending all that money if it's being used. Yeah.
You can't be down at Ralph's like, come by and work out anytime you want.
No. Yeah. I mean, there are people I've literally— I have no idea who they are.
I walk in there, I don't know who anybody is.
No.
Yeah.
No idea.
I walked in there the other day, I got a dirty look and I was like, okay, sorry.
No way. That's really funny. Yeah, I know. It's tough out here, man. All right, guys, that's all the time we have for this podcast. Thank you guys for listening. Thank you, Jason Nash, for being here. Taking some time, relaxing with us, unwinding a little bit. Natalie, thanks for being the best friend ever.
Thanks, Dave. Okay, thanks for being here.
We'll see you guys later. Bye.
