[Assistant] Being healthy, is that, is that kinda something you've been focused on? Is just taking better care of your mind and your body? Yea bro, that's super like big.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're seeing the slow change of the Soundcloud rap generation too, cause like, at the time that that music started hitting, I was getting fucked up, and now I'm all like working out, eating super healthy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. Now you're still young. Myself, if I turn up and have some fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Damn dude. Alright, so this is awesome getting to have you come in here. I'm trying to think if there's anything else that we need to mention that's important. You got any like specific projects or songs coming up that we need to be excited for?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright. Well, Ronnie J, I appreciate you coming in and kind of educating us out there, motivating the young producers out there and sort of filling us in on a lot of the history of everything you've been through.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're alright. Sebastian.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's odd though. Why would they catch you instead of just killing you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sierra 117 to infinity. The routine is located Argent Moon. Signs of hostile activity. Is she still here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 2 Chainz just bought a bulletproof RV. You think rappers need bulletproof cars with all the shootings going on these days?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, you on summer vacation or something? Sure, yea. Oh, dope. You think rappers need bulletproof cars with all the shootings going on these days?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You think rappers need bulletproof cars with all the shootings going on these days?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's your name? Itai. Itai. There's a dope dude that makes lighters and designer clothes that he cuts up named Itai. So you got a cool name. Thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, okay, baby, I got some questions for you, alright? Think rappers need bulletproof cars with all the shootings that's going on these days?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you think rappers need bulletproof cars with all the shootings that's going on?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dippers! Wave check, wave check, ding ding ding ding ding. Do you think rappers should have bulletproof cars with all the shootings that's going on these days?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's worthy, for sure. Alright, move like the president, okay? Gotta move like Obama. Secret Service. Get you a Brian.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lions are an iconic species of Africa and to have the opportunity to work in a wild place like this and to actually be able to make a difference, it's hard to describe how important it is to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In northern Botswana, lions move out of the delta because all the territories are occupied. So as they move out...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They get into these high conflict zones around these villages where livestock are often the only food that the lions can find.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was really the genesis of Pride in Our Prides. We knew we had to do something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're working with communities to help people coexist with these cats.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If livestock are killed, people are going to be more motivated to go after the lions. So it's really about helping people protect their livestock. And in the end, protect lions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The early warning system is based on the satellite tracking collars that we put on the cats so we can warn the village that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A particular lion is approaching at a particular time, so make sure that your livestock are protected.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Myanga is one of the lions that we started the program with about a year and a half ago when we put out our first satellite collars. She was one of our target animals because we know she's one of the individuals that likely moves into this floodplain where that conflict interface happens.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Myanga mated back in July. One of the things that we had in mind is that she's likely with cubs that are about three to four weeks old.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We had a bit of an operation to try to make sure that she was safe, that the cubs were safe, and that we were able to swap the collars quickly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Animals wake up like that during anesthesias, different animals, and I mean, they're impulses to get away.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She's obviously has some adrenaline to try to fight the drug. She's big. She's got a big belly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since we hadn't seen the cubs in that moment and she had a full, full belly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, we're starting to second-guess ourselves. What's going on? Is she actually still pregnant?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so as we're watching this footage, she's doing what lions do, basically rest. And then.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We see this little fuzzball in the corner and this small cub starts moving towards her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Later in the footage we start to see two cubs come out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we had the date right. A few weeks old, just as we had previously predicted, and then they start to play and tumble on each other.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Healthy and to get that inside view at that early stage is hugely valuable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We've already started using this footage and it's been edited down. It's the villages that actually name


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The individual lions in our study. And we've gone to some of these communities to be able to show them, oh, you know, my Angus, she's actually has cubs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And when there's a trigger of our early warning system when she starts approaching the village, we'll be able to send messages using that name.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The CritterCams help us personalize and individualize these cats. People who live in these villages close to the lions that have just basically a negative association. Lions mean dead cattle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They get this window into the lives of these lions, and they get to see them in a different context.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We hope that this helps drastically reduce the killing of livestock, drastically reduce the killing of lions,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll be with you shortly. Tanaka, what kind of welcome can we expect this far out?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We might be able to help. Where was that transmission sent from?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Find a network terminal. I wanna know more about Apogee Station.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your people saw UNSC ship out near Apogee Station.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No offense taken, Governor. We'll find our target to be out of your way shortly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Something here. Similar design to a Munder.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Animostro and bakewrecks?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sounds like baking, so maybe one of Marinette's parents gets akumatized, and Anna Mastro sounds like animation something, so maybe Nathaniel or someone again, I don't know, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm excited to watch. Hope you guys are as well. I really enjoyed the first episode, so I'm excited to see where the season's going to go and what will transpire. I know there's a lot of, uh, animosity between the community that some people think this is where Miraculous starts having its downfall in writing, and some people still say that season three is very good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I need to kinda start judging it and kinda figuring out where I fit in. At the end of the day, I want you guys to know that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not planning to stop watching Miraculous ever. It's a children's show. It should be weird. It should be bad. It's going to have iffiness. So I'm here despite it all, no matter what I am willing to burn with the series or go in gloriousness of its absurdity. I'm here for it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm hyped. Hope you guys are as well. Please keep in mind to support the official release of Miraculous Ladybug either on Netflix or on Disney Plus depending on your country. And if you like my reactions and want to see the full uncut reaction, or if you just want to see my reactions early, please check out my Patreon page.

[Assistant] When did you make that macarons go bad? Macaroons go bad? How long have you had that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my god, is Thomas gonna get akumatized? Uh oh. Oh no, Adrian's here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Noooo, you're not gonna make her sit down on cake, are you? Noooo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everybody deserves credit, don't get me wrong, but like, you are the producer! Like, it is kinda sad that people are just like, where's the ladybug? So you didn't draw anything? It's, it's sad, dude!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's cool, I kinda like the sketchy line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't get to see her transform much in like alternate outfits, so that's fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, well, a little too late, I suppose.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cute. That was nice of him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Interesting episode. Alright, so let's take some time to talk about this episode before we move on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I actually really liked it, is that weird?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because from what I've been told, Miraculous Ladybug was meant to be, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A 2D show, that's how they film, or just film the pilot of it, storyboard of the pilot, whatever you want to call it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I remember seeing that like way, way, way, way, way, way long ago. Like what was it? 2016? 15 something?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because I remember, uhm, the big line up for magical girls stuff with She-Ra.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Miraculous Ladybug and then Starburst of Forces of Evil. People are very excited for these magical girl-esque shows to be coming out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's cool. I think it's actually very resourceful. I think the animation was done very, very well. So I like that they included it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like I said, self insert was a little odd, but it's not a bad concept.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, the actors themselves, they get a lot of credit, but for animation, I think more so the producers, directors get to take a lot of the credit where, you know, the...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Actual animator sound design, uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, visual effects, I could list a bajillion job titles that fall in there, but they don't get a lot of the credit most of the time. Uh, it's just not how it goes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Producer Director gets a lot of credit. So it was a little odd, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 2D drawings in the show, which was very fun, getting to see all these different characters kind of come to life. We had kind of the goofy little dog one, we had the like very childish dinosaur, we kind of had the uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Superhero, like, Captain Marvel kind of looking character, uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We had the, uh, the magical, like, Sailor Moon-esquey girl. It was fun. There's a ninja as well. So it was a lot of fun to get to see all those. I liked the kinda 2D smoke effect they had going on. It was fun. It was interesting. It kept me very much engaged. Like, a really good, like, children's episode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I didn't feel like it was too cringy, like I think about, uhm...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Another animated show that's done like a self-insert is, uh, Fairly Oddparents. Basically, uh, The Creator.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which, I don't even want to give him the time of day, but he like made himself like the hot doctor. And it's like super... weird.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it kinda felt more like stating just a fact in animation, and I don't mind, like, having that dare to be like, yeah, you know, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We, we deserve credit too. Like, that's fine, I get that. And it allowed, like, for this fun animation episode to come about. So, I'm okay with that. Uh, I kinda like the, uh, Chloe Marinette teamwork, but then immediately deciding they don't want to work together anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Lila comes into the picture more at school and is in the background, I could see Marinette and Chloe kind of being forced into this corner where they kind of have to work together to make sure Lila isn't all over him. Cause I'm kind of surprised that, you know,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It seems like Chloe doesn't care and we haven't got much Chloe-Lyla interactions, which I, my hope, my dream in my dream journal was that Chloe and Lyla were gonna become like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Little, like, Hawk Sisters for, like, Hawk Daddy, and they were just gonna be our little, like, chaos bringers. But it doesn't seem like that's going to happen, which is kinda disappointing, cause I was really hoping for it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, I get why it wouldn't be there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we'll see, but overall I did enjoy the episode. I like the, uh, the difference. I like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Seeing kinda different animation in the show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would love to get a full 2D episode at some point or even just like a part 2D episode. Like maybe we do get a character that just changes everybody's two dimensional. I think that'd be cool. I don't think they'll do it, but it would be kind of cool, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, it really do be some Ratatouille stuff going on, like a Cinderella.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] God, he's so childish. For someone so stuck in the old ways, he's so childish.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like the design, but the design is just creepy to me. That's all I'll say about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's nice to kind of get dad's side and see, uhm, his grumpy dad. And of course,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think many people struggle with this, especially with grandparents that are more traditional.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think with every decade that kinda goes by, that's starting to kinda change a bit since we have less of these traditional ways, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People are growing up with technology and, you know, the old people who didn't are dying, uuuh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As we continue on, there's less of that. Less of the, you know, I had to go walk five miles of school every day. And the, I had to cut wood so we could stay warm. You know, that's starting to kind of go away. We are much more modernized in our society and, you know, it's becoming less common.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I do think it's still a struggle. So it was kind of fun to see him, uh, loosen up a little bit and show some care and compassion towards his granddaughter, even though he was a little bit standoffish when Marinette said that who she was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, by the end of it he did care and he was like, oh gosh, like the bride could be burning and my daughter is in there, like I don't want her to die. So it was really sweet. I liked it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I've actually never made bread before, it's something I wanna try, I just haven't tried it yet, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a few years off, so I, I got time, but we'll, we'll mark that on the goal list for myself. Um, what else? What else?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like that they have like the bullet train. I don't know if they call it bullet train, but that's cool. They have like a bullet train. Is that a real train in France to UK? Is that cool? I just don't know if it actually is like a thing. I know, um, that things like that are becoming more, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Frequent and happening, I just don't know if that's actually something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yea, I don't know. Uh, I don't have a lot to say about this episode. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess I get why dad and grandpa's relationship got tense. You know, it seemed like grandpa didn't want to, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Listen, he just got all huffity, it was a very stupid little fight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you know, he just didn't want to talk to his son anymore, so he stopped.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And where dad and mom kept trying to pursue that relationship, it seems as though grandpa just cut them off and just didn't care.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But still cared about them because if he didn't care, he wouldn't have kept the picture because he kept the picture.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He just flipped it down so he could still go see it whenever he wanted to, but he didn't want to be reminded of it when he didn't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Separated. Like are they divorced or does she just go do what she wants because he's a stick in the mud? I don't remember if we got that backstory or not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know she's off doing her own stuff because she's much more adventurous, but I don't remember if they're actually together still or not. So, eh, I'd be gay. I'd be gay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But overall, good episode, uhm, maybe a slightly in the wrong for kind of lying and going into his house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, it worked out well, and if their family can come back together from that, it would be well, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Seems like it maybe was for the better then. Uh, but yeaah. I really don't have much to say about that episode. It was just a nice episode. It was an interesting, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Akuma design, a little creepy, looked kinda like Bugsnack if you've ever played that game. Felt very reminiscent to that, so, yeah, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I had fun, but yeah, I really enjoyed both the episodes though. Uh, they were.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then getting grandpa. So, it was nice. I'll be curious to kinda see what else we get this season. I'll be honest, I'm actually a little bit shocked we haven't already, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Given out some miraculous? I just felt like since we...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so I'm out in season two. I felt like season three maybe would be a time that we start maybe handing them out more regularly, but that's not the case, so be it. I'm chill with it, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll just have to see as the season continues. But thank you all so much for watching. I really do appreciate it. Please make sure if you like this video to like, share, subscribe, all that fun jest. It really helps me know that you guys are enjoying this as much as I am.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Broccoli. You know like, I fuck with the shit that I can't eat. That mean that I don't know how to make.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Little pieces, I love the little wings. I don't like the tiny wings, but I like the little wings. Two bites and done. And there's banana pudding.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because of student loans, we are literally driving tens of thousands of older Americans into poverty. They will literally seize your social security benefit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Get re-educated in your boot camp. Become a puppet. Like you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, I'm not with them. Whoever you are, they know you now. They catch you. You have the stones to refuse their amnesty. Who are they working for? Who's the only one who can keep matters like them in line?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm pleased you wanted to meet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's all I needed to hear.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You said this place was secure. Just keep him busy. With pleasure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This isn't my first drop, kid. I know the plan. Then stick to it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First rule of war, take out command and control. This satellite's the key to Superman's regime.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You jeopardize the entire mission. Superman's my priority, not your Batman.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And missed my chance to battle Superman's Rebound Girl?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whaaat? Someone you know, Goku?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I honestly didn't expect this to be so much fun. Alright, there'll be no more out of bounds.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A little bird told me some creep was dressed up like the Joker fighting a Batman wannabe. You got the look. And a lot of nerve. What you don't have is the right


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Joker was a hero. You're not fit to lick his booty near!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was gonna... I can't believe I fell for him again!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Easy guys, he's on our side. Turns out he wasn't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That'll be the least of it. These guys will keep causing trouble. Go get Superman.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, what could be better, eh? The good guys are reunited, and the Commando Sombra are dead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shit, Max, you look kind of beat up. Let's get this lot home and then I'll get you home too. Come on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You okay? Yeah. Alright, let's go. There's gotta be a first aid kit around here somewhere.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's not the only one. Come on. I think he went this way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whoa. Looks like I missed all the fun. You see there, grandpa?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We make sure that the right clowns get their money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is high-end gear. These guys are seriously fine-assed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That guy was getting annoying. How the hell did they know about the exchange? This is sampa bro. That kind of cash doesn't stay quiet for long. And these kids like expensive toys. Here, put this on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I see you. Be careful, you got company.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What about the kid with the money?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got the best. I know. You know how to make an entrance, bro. Now let's get the hell outta here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I spent five years on the beat in the Bronx, working homicide. I nearly got killed, man. I gave up. I got into private work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gives me busy. I take care of people, you know? Proper bodyguarding. And I'm working for a good firm. I'm actually here on a bit of a recruitment drive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, good for you. Now fuck off!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why are you living like this? Like what? You know scratching around? Sitting in bars all day?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can get you work, Max. Work that only a guy like you can do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You were the best guy in the academy. And you won medals on the street.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I know. So leave. Start over. You mourned enough. I ain't a cop no more. And this ain't cop work. This is protecting people in places where the cops ain't too hot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dead end. You knew your way around these parts. Let's just get over there. Yeah? Think you need a hand?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So look, I got some friends in Queens, we can stay there for a few days. Queens.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Max. You listening? Max! So like I was saying, I think they're a group called the Karashapret.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why'd you tell me they were called the CS? They are. I mean, Fabiana. She was kidnapped by the CS.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Guys that crashed our little party at the stadium, they were a group of paramilitaries.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You'll have to forgive me for not being able to follow all this. You're not supposed to follow it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The government can't even follow it. It ensures that no one's ever guilty. So why'd they do it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm a bad joke. Max, we work private security.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're all ex-soldiers, ex-special forces, ex-cop, ex-good guys. We all have our reasons why we became ex. Maybe now we can put things right, okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Max, quit your daydreaming. This is it. It's over there. I'm gonna cup the engine. Light in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think anybody knew. This crazy shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Max. Wake up, Max. Come on. Get up, you big bastard. Come on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, sorry bro. The boss wants to see us. So let's go, come on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As opposed to what? Disco dance? Shut the fuck up, half-assed!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But your son was killed in gun battle. A battle he started.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We gotta find a phone. I got a connection in Queens who can help us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, hey, it's me. We really need to get out of New Jersey. Things are heating up. We've got like half the New Jersey mob after us. And a cemetery in Hoboken.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What are you talking about? I don't know nothing about human organs, man! Victor and Marcelo were trying to teach Rodrigo a lesson. Get into losing the purse strings and the family money. They pressured me into doing it!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, maybe back to New York, uh, maybe down to Argentina. Giovanna has family in Salvador. Maybe we'll just stay there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm sorry, I dragged you into this. I know, uh, I know it was very wrong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I-I got a kid coming, you know how it is. I know how that is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I... I almost didn't say goodbye to you. I said to myself, maybe this guy will put a bullet in me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Trying to look after yourself, Max? Huh? Life is worth living.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wherever they came from. Raleigh, Nevada. Raleigh and Cincinnati to do videos with us here for a full week! Not a full week, it's like four days.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just, last word. Cause definitely Raleigh was the funniest thing we've said in the past few minutes.

[Assistant] In- when- when it comes to next week, when we finally have all the stuff recorded and we're getting al- everything done, it's gonna be super fun with lots of new types of videos. Not really, same old shit, we're nothing original. Ahh, I'm building- I'm building- SHUT-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're gonna do challenges. Wednesday, we're gonna do...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you everybody so much for watching. It's gonna be a fun week. We got the whole gang here. We got a whole week full of stuff to do. It's gonna be super exciting, and I can't wait to show you guys, uhm, super...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sorry Tyler. It is incredible that the three of us together in LA hasn't happened in years. Literally years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But uhm, we started to explore approaches that come more from


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't, don't overprepare your fossils. You never know what you're getting out of them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, what is going to happen to life in the future of paleontology is probably your field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What are the best Ethereum wallets out there? How do Ethereum wallets work? And what's their purpose? What is gas? And how is it calculated? Well, stick around. In this episode of Ethereum Whiteboard Tuesday, we'll answer these questions and more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hi, I'm Nate Martin from 99Bitcoins and today we're going to talk about Ethereum wallets. Those pieces of software or hardware that allow us to interact with the Ethereum network.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At its core, an Ethereum wallet, also known as a client, holds your private key, the secret password that gives you control over your coins. It also supplies you with a public Ethereum address, which people can use to send you Ethereum's currency, known as Ether. This is almost as far as Bitcoin and Ethereum go in terms of similarities.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Many non-technical users think of Ether as a currency in the same sense they view Bitcoin. They buy Ether in hopes that its price will rise. They pay for stuff with Ether and more. However, Ether wasn't designed for the same purpose as Bitcoin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you've watched our previous video, What is Ethereum? and if you didn't, you should, you know that Ethereum is a network of independent computers working together as one supercomputer. This supercomputer executes pieces of code known as contracts or smart contracts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Interacting with contracts requires more complex communication than to just send X amount of money from Y to Z like Bitcoin does. Ethereum wallets are the tool we use for this communication. So in order to truly understand Ethereum wallets, we need to first understand how Ethereum is built.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In Ethereum, there are two types of accounts. The most basic type of account in Ethereum is called an EOA or Externally Owned Account.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Similar to how a Bitcoin wallet operates, EOAs have an Ethereum address that is controlled by a private key. A person can open as many EOAs as he likes. In addition to sending and receiving Ether, EOAs have the ability to create contracts and to trigger them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The second type of account is the contract account. These are accounts that have code associated with them. Every contract deployed to the Ethereum network has its own account which includes a unique Ethereum address. However, unlike an external account, a contract account doesn't have a private key that controls it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, the code that defines the contract includes a set of predefined triggers which control the account. In other words, the conditions to control how the contract operates are hard-coded from the get-go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Similar to EOAs, contract accounts can receive Ether and if triggered, send Ether or even create additional contract accounts. It's important to note that contracts can't be changed once they've been launched, so the author must be very thorough in drafting the conditions for each trigger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] EOAs can interact with other EOAs and with contracts through messages. These messages are wrapped inside transactions which are paid for in Ether. So while in Bitcoin transactions are used only to transfer value, Ethereum transactions are used for a variety of reasons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First, transactions are used for the transfer of value. This is the simplest form of transaction, meaning to send Ether between accounts. You can also use transactions to create a new smart contract.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Creating a new contract is done by sending a transaction that includes the contract's code.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And finally, transactions can be used to trigger a contract. For example, when you send money to an ICO's contract account address, you're actually activating a contract that sends you tokens in return.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now that you understand how Ethereum is built, and that transactions are in fact used to help accounts talk to each other, we can move on to Ethereum wallets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some Ethereum wallets will only allow you to transfer value or send Ether between accounts. Other wallets will allow you to also deploy or trigger a contract. These wallets are known as smart contract wallets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Similar to Bitcoin, wallets are sometimes referred to as clients or nodes. And there are two types of clients. Full clients and light clients.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A full node is a computer that holds the entire Ethereum blockchain history since its inception until this day. Running a full node has disadvantages like increased memory and computer usage. However, it allows you to verify transactions on the Ethereum blockchain without needing to trust anyone's word for it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Full nodes are an integral part of the Ethereum network, as they are the muscles of the network that help execute contracts in a decentralized manner. Each node that receives a new block of transactions also executes the code inside these transactions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are different programs to help you run an Ethereum full node. We won't discuss all of them. However, we will talk about the most common clients. The first one is Geth, short for Go Ethereum.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Developed by the Ethereum Foundation, a non-profit organization established to develop the code and community for Ethereum, Geth is the most popular and widely used program. The second is Myst.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since Geth is a tool made for developers, Myst was created in order to allow non-technical users to interact with it. So,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Technically you're using Geth, Mist provides you with an easy user interface to talk to it. And finally, Parity, which is a private company based in London whose mission is to enable businesses and organizations to capitalize on blockchain technology.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They developed software to run full nodes for Ethereum and are considered the second most popular full client.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just for reference, at the time of releasing this video, there are 9,713 nodes running Geth and 4,069 nodes running Parity. All full nodes are smart contract wallets, meaning they can deploy smart contracts to the Ethereum network.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you don't want to run a full node, you can use a light node. Light nodes, similar to Bitcoin's SPV wallets, are programs that rely on third-party full nodes in order to get information when needed, rather than holding a full copy of the blockchain.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This means they require less space and can operate on devices with limited space, such as mobile phones.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Being the second largest currency by market cap in the crypto market, Ether has caught the eye of day-to-day users. These users will usually use LiteNodes as their wallet since it's easier to install and operate. If you don't intend to write smart contracts anytime soon, you can use any of the Lite wallets listed in our website for the most user-friendly experience.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's talk a little bit about Ethereum hardware wallets. If you're serious about security, I suggest storing your Ether on a hardware wallet. While being the most secure way to store your coins, hardware wallets cost money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Also, hardware wallets are not smart contract wallets by design. They can only send and receive Ether and ERC-20 tokens. Now let's move on to transaction fees and gas. Trust me, you'll understand in a few minutes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] While Bitcoin can be divided into 100 million units with the smallest unit called a Satoshi, Ether can be divided into 1 quintillion units, that's a 1 with 18 zeros after it, with the smallest one being called Wei.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wei is named after Wei Dai, a cryptography activist who is known for supporting widespread use of strong cryptography and privacy-oriented technologies.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fees for transactions are currently calculated in jig-a-way. So 1 quintillion-way equals 1 ether, and 1 billion-way equals 1 jig-a-way. There are also other names for different amounts of way, all named after famous cryptographers, as shown in this table.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In Bitcoin, to send a transaction, we need to add a miner's fee to it. This way, we incentivize the miners to include it in a block. In Ethereum, we must keep miners incentivized as well for their contribution of computing power to the Ethereum supercomputer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just like a car, the Ethereum network runs on gas. Each line of code that needs to be executed by the network will take up a certain amount of gas, run out of gas, and your code stops running.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You specify how much gas you're going to use up front, and you can't refuel on the way. If your contract runs out of gas because it's written inefficiently or you miscalculated, it will just stop in the middle of the road.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This system motivates smart contract programmers to keep their code lean and optimized, since gas costs money, as we will soon learn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The gas you pay goes to the miners, as they are the ones investing computing power in order to update the ledger of Ethereum transactions, similar to what goes on in Bitcoin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Keep in mind that gas isn't something you can own. It's just a unit of account to measure how much work is needed to run a line of code. Think of it as the equivalent of hours of labor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gas is paid in Ether. Now, I know what you're thinking. Why not just price execution of smart contracts in Ether? Why do we need another virtual currency? Well, Ether's price is constantly changing, and if we priced contracts in Ether, the price would be different each time we calculated it due to the fluctuating exchange rate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Imagine we price painting our house at two ether. Sometimes it would cost us a thousand dollars, and other times, two thousand dollars. With gas, running the same contract several times will always bring back a fixed amount of gas to be paid, just like painting the same house takes the same amount of hours every time. So how much gas do you need to run a line of code?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Easy. There's a predefined amount for each action you want to run in your code. For example, sending ether from one address to the other requires 21,000 gas units. Now comes the tricky part. How much do you actually pay for a unit of gas?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The price of one gas unit changes all the time, depending on how crowded the network is. The same way an hour of labor would cost more if many people are looking for employees, the gas price rises when the network is crowded.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The standard gas price is around 20 gigaway. You can consider this the average salary on the market for an hour of labor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the Ethereum network is very busy and you want your contract to get priority in execution over other contracts, you may overbid the gas price so that miners will have an incentive to include your contract in the next block.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're basically saying, I'm willing to increase your pay-per-unit of labor so you'll give my work priority.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you send a transaction in Ether, you also need to specify a gas limit, meaning how much gas you're willing to use at maximum for running your lines of code.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is done in order to protect you from depleting your funds in case your code has an error and runs endlessly or inefficiently.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You pay the full amount for your gas limit up front, and there's no option for refueling. This can cause certain things to go wrong. For example, if you overpaid and your contract ended up using less gas, you'll get refunded for the gas not used.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, if an operation ran out of gas midway, it will halt, just like your car. And no ether will be returned to you, just like a gas station doesn't refund you even if you didn't have enough gas to get to where you wanted to go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This can happen if, for example, your contract needs to do some reoccurring function that keeps on consuming gas and finally runs out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you don't include enough gas units for running your code, no miner will pick up your transactions since it doesn't have enough gas from the get-go. And finally, if you choose enough units of gas but pay very little for each unit, it may take a lot of time for your transaction to go through since miners will prioritize higher-paying transactions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To conclude, Ethereum fees are a general term that refers to the gas used multiplied by the gas price you were willing to pay. In other words, the hours of labor worked times the wage per hour. The higher you're willing to pay per gas unit, the more miners will compete for running your code, and the faster your transaction will be included in the blockchain.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's it for today's video. Hopefully, by now you have a better understanding of Ethereum's wallets, Ethereum accounts, gas, transaction fees, and also the various wallets you can choose from.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As you probably noticed, Ethereum is a lot more complicated than Bitcoin, mainly because it's intended on executing much more complex functions than just sending money from A to B. Don't worry, it gets worse. But we'll talk you through it, as always, in upcoming videos. You may still have some questions. If so, just leave them in the comments section below.

[Assistant] Thanks for joining me here at the whiteboard. For 99Bitcoins.com, I'm Nate Martin, and I'll see you in a bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tower, this is Jade. Get sickbay ready. Got a guy with a bad head wound and a bite on one arm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Amir is gone. But I'm bringing in someone who might still survive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Raheen? You are just smart enough to be dangerous, you know that? Omar told me about your plans for the nest. Explosive charges? Really?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you might want to be a little nicer to me since I'm the only family you have left. Especially now that Amir is gone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you do. You wanna return the favor? Keep my dipshit brother from killing himself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look Brecken, the last thing we need is for you to go back out there. We can figure out another way without jeopardizing you. Right Crane?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, yes, Crane will go. He'll be happy too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Crane will manage. He'll start in the right spot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Lina's right, you need to be here taking care of the towers, convincing them the world's not over yet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I only saw the ones that went in after Tahir, but I'm sure there's more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I lost my radio for a while. Don't worry, my cover's intact. No contact with the tower's leader yet. Unable to confirm identity, I'm taking steps to blend in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's, there's one more thing. I, I got bitten. I've shown no symptoms, but the people here say I'm infected.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, taken care of. Piece of cake. What else you got for me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hardly. The closest I ever came to this was running track in high school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, I met this doctor. Scientist type. They've got him set up in a sort of research trailer and he's working on a cure for the virus. His name is Zera. Hello? Do you copy?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just saw this freaking weird zombie covered in big green blisters. It hauled ass as soon as it spotted me. You know anything about it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I doubt anyone does. Anti-seizure drugs were being passed out like candy when the infection first started. And the stores ran out weeks ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. Maybe then I'll just let myself in through the roof.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tower boss is named Brecon, and he's definitely not your man. The other likely suspect is this Warlord, basically. Local guy. Calls himself Rise. He's hoarding antizin and then gouging the hell out of anybody who wants to buy some. I'm on a mission to get antizin from the airdrop. If I don't succeed, they'll have to come up with something else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shit, too late. Jade Rice's man got here first.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, this rice guy has never seen my face before. Clean slate, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just met Rise. There's no question, that's Suleiman. Guy's a psychopath, he's gone from ruthless politician to fucking warlord.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, he thinks I'm just a guy from the tower. In fact, he's making me jump through hoops before he'll give me any antizin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that was me. And now I'm on my way to see Rise again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll tell you what. How about I break both your legs and drag you through the streets back to Rice's place, huh? And then he can explain to you that you should have cooperated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kareem, it's me. So I just threatened to break an old man's legs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, Kareem, I'm outside the village, but there's a whole horde of infected in there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is entirely not my problem. Rise wants his payment, so you make the payment, and things get bad for you. And your woman.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You any different? Look, all I wanna do is get this over with. What's it gonna take, huh? Don't need to point out how easy it would be to set this entire place on fire. Jesus Christ. You people are fucking monsters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And for what it's worth, this isn't something I wanna do. I'd rather be helping you guys. And yet you're still doing it, aren't you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay Kareem, I made the collection at the ferry station, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to hell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kareem, I think I found your lost patrol. Something ripped him limb from limb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Brecken, you showed these people how to survive. Do you know who my pockets are?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Closest thing to what you're talking about are Spike's firecrackers. It's impossible. You don't know what it's like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want you to start the antizen drops again. At least near the tower. These people need help.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You start giving us some antizin and then, and then we'll talk about what Ryze wants.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You assholes take the fucking cake, you know that? You and your fucking file.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And risk letting him keep this much ordinance? No, just go. I got this, meet me back at the tower.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah kid, that was a lucky find. Would have been better to turn up some antizin though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's no we in this. I mean, yea, that nest needs to go, and now it's possible, but if it gets done, I'm doing it on my own.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes. We have a deal. Okay, one more thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What if I delivered this stuff to you, Dr. Camden? By hand. The data and the tissue samples both.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Raheem, where the hell are you? Brecon, it's me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shit, Brecken. Zara's been kidnapped. His trailer's on fire.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm going after her. How is she getting in? That part of town is sealed off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kareem, huh? If you see him, thank him for me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know you're smuggling people out of the slums. There's a girl who came through. Jade? I think you better get the hell out of here. No, just listen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I cut Rise up and now his whole goddamn gang is after me. I could use some cooperation here. You?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So did you take Jade through too? Who? She's from here. Dark hair, pretty, tough as nails.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dr. Camden, do you copy? Crane here. Camden, can you hear me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The GRE hired me, alright? I was supposed to find out where Ryze sent this classified file, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I talked him into waiting because they want that research that you're carrying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey buddy, have you seen a woman named Jade Aldemir? She's got long dark hair, she's tough as nails. Yeah, she was talking to a woman.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jade, this is Quain, do you copy? Jade, can you hear me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I tell Michael I'm on my way, and while I'm doing that, can you get in touch with Jade? Try to get her to meet me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shit. What's wrong? Michael!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, no, it's not subtle enough to be a trap. There's gotta be a way to sneak in, right? I mean, some way to surprise him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It will most likely isn't definitely so, guess I'll give it a try.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, yeah, I found her. Listen, I also found Dr. Zara's tissue samples, and I'll bring them to you, but... At first, there's something else I need to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One day I'm gonna do this and end up landing on a bag of rusty knives, I just know it. Hey Sav, are you there?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yea? And why would you do that? I never found out who had your precious file. You don't even have to pay the rest of my fee!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my god. You need the cure now for spin, don't you? That's the only way you could get out of this! Try to convince everyone you were working toward a cure the whole time!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You want the research? Just fucking wait for my signal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thanks to Dr. Camden and Zara's research data, there might actually be a cure someday. We'll just have to wait and see. I don't know what happens next, but I do know one thing. This is where I'm supposed to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, I'm still confused by the title, by the way. I think that's the first demon that most likely had the answers to Tanjiro's question. Like, he said it was probably the only one that could turn her back into a human. I think it's retreating. Oh, nope. Just sunk back in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The clothes from the other girls, that is horrifying. That is gross. He just leaves them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How like the breathing techniques paralleled with the high altitude whenever he was on the mountain.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I lit- I expected him to go like, I- I have no idea. I- I couldn't tell ya. This monster who's killed dozens of innocent people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, he met him. Or was created by- Oh yeah, cause every single one is created by him? Oh my gosh!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Punch it, oh man, I- Listen man, I didn't mean anything by it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I think that was information in and of itself that he wouldn't say anything, though. Means it's going to be- you're gonna have to dig a little bit deeper than just asking demons, you know? So inherently, he learned a little bit. Oh, she'll heal by sleeping. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Back in the box. Yeah, sorry, my guy. I love how just no one woke up and came. Town's just silent. At least this girl's okay. It saves one. This dude's like, I don't know what's real anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He did handle the entire massacre of his family aside from Nezuko very well. Gotta give him props.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the demon's cloth. Or is it his sister's? Or his fiancee? God.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] New fiance? I'm sorry. It's, yea, it's too soon. It's too soon. She's gonna be very confused when she wakes up, that's for sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She's like half asleep basically, standing up. Wonder why he took her out of the box. I guess cause it's nighttime.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's one demon here terrorizing people? Kinda hard to find if it's not a very very very specific location. I think he just said the city name too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, smells it. Oh, that was fast. That was really fast. Is it actually the Udon shop owner? Oh, there's like a really strong scent. It's like terrified.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wonder if the wife knows he's who he is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's a thousand years old. Consternation? Oh my gosh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By buying even a small amount of bitcoins, you'll probably learn more than by watching this whole video series. So let's get started.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before you can buy Bitcoins, you're going to need a wallet to hold them. If you've watched our previous episode about wallets, then you're all set. However, if you're completely new to Bitcoin, or if you can't quite recall what we talked about in the video, here's a short refresher.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bitcoin wallets are programs that help you send and receive Bitcoin. They generate your Bitcoin address, which serves as your personal address for receiving Bitcoins. If you're buying small amounts of Bitcoin, you can use any trusted software wallet. It could be a mobile wallet or a desktop wallet. It doesn't really matter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bitcoin is a very risky asset. This means that you should never buy any amount you can't afford to lose. It's important to think this through. If this is the first time you are buying Bitcoins, choose an amount that won't affect you financially if Bitcoin were to drop to zero.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Keep in mind that you can always buy less than 1 Bitcoin. 1 Bitcoin can be divided up to 8 decimal points. This means that you can buy half a Bitcoin, a quarter of a Bitcoin, or even a hundredth of a Bitcoin. Of course, the amount you're going to spend on Bitcoins will lead you to your next step, choosing an exchange.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Choosing an exchange is hard work. Each exchange has different rules, accepted payment methods, and fees along with other factors to take into account. If you want to avoid the hassle, you can use our Buy Bitcoin page, which matches you up with the best exchange based on your location. There's a link to that page at the bottom of this video as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This of course is a very rough match, but it will give you the best result 95% of the time. If you want to do your own due diligence, however, here's what you need to look out for. The first thing you want to check is that the exchange accepts users from your country. Not all exchanges accept customers from all around the world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The second thing you'll want to check is what payment methods are accepted by the exchange. Some exchanges accept a wide variety of payment methods, and some accept only wire transfers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Payment methods that allow the buyer to request his money back, like credit cards or PayPal, will usually be accompanied by higher fees. This is because the seller is taking the risk that you'll cancel the payment after you get your coins. On the other hand, payment methods that can't be reversed, such as wire transfers, are usually cheaper.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The third thing you'll want to check is how much you'll need to pay in fees for your transactions. There are three kinds of fees. Deposit fees, transaction fees, and withdrawal fees.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Each one is different and can affect the total amount of money you'll receive in the end.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The fourth thing you want to be aware of is the exchange rate. Some exchanges have low fees, but their exchange rates are higher relative to the competition. This means that the fees are hiding in the exchange rate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fifth, you'll want to know your buying limit. Your buying limit will depend on your payment method and your identity verification level.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you're looking to buy a large amount of bitcoins, some exchanges won't allow it due to their low limits. Finally, you'll want to check out the exchange's reputation. Is it well known in the community? How well is the support in the event you get lost in the process? Have there been a large number of complaints against the exchange?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One important distinction to make is the difference between trading platforms and brokers. Trading platforms are sites that automatically connect buyers and sellers. This means that you buy from people who've placed sell orders on the site without ever communicating with them directly. The platform usually takes a small fee for the service.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the end, it doesn't really matter if you're buying your coins from a trading platform or a broker. What matters is that the company is reliable and that you're happy with the price you're paying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As a side note, if you're looking to buy large amounts of Bitcoin, let's say over $10,000 worth, there are specific exchanges and brokers that deal in these sorts of transactions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If this is the case for you, take a look at the resources section at the bottom of this video.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As Bitcoin has become more and more mainstream, exchanges have become subject to stricter regulations by governments. And in many cases, they're unwillingly forced to request this information from you. Once you finish the registration and your identity is verified, you can finally buy your Bitcoins. I hate to break it to you, but the process doesn't end there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Bitcoin's history has taught us anything, it's that if you keep your money on an exchange, you don't actually own that money. The exchange does. If the exchange becomes insolvent or gets hacked, you risk losing that money for good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First, try to see if you can verify the seller's identity. Some people will want to remain anonymous, and that's fine, but verifying someone's identity will dramatically reduce your risk of being scammed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Second, try to use some sort of escrow service that will hold your money until the seller sends you the coins. If that's not possible, stick to cash and meet with the person face to face. In any case, never use irreversible payment methods like wire transfers before receiving your coins.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Finally, you'll want to wait for the Bitcoin transaction to have at least two to three confirmations before considering the deal complete. Of course, this depends on the amount of money you're exchanging. Smaller amounts can do with only one confirmation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Keep in mind that buying from an individual usually involves a lot of uncertainty. And sometimes it's just not worth the few bucks you'll save in the process.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, that's it for today's video. All that's left for you to do now is go and get your first Bitcoin. Remember, if you ever get stuck, use the resource section at the bottom of this video or just shoot us an email. Good luck and I'll see you in a bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, for the Five Nights at Freddy's musical with random encounters and Nate wants to battle and also Matt Pat from the Game Theorists, you saw him there. This is not sponsored by Diet Coke, they would never sponsor us. So, we've been incredibly busy with that. If you remember last week, I put out a video called Markiplier catches a pen in his mouth, which is the epitome of entertainment that we have on this channel, but that's a whole nother story, but that was filmed


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, in the first session that we were doing for the Five Nights at Freddy's musical with those guys. That was at NateWantsToBattle's place. He's a really cool guy! Thank you so much for letting me use your bed. That sounds weird, but you'll see what it means in the video when it finally comes out. So, uh, that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And also, I've been working on a project with Jack and Danny, and we've just been starting on that. And that's an even bigger project than the one I'm working on with Matt and Ryan, so it's all kind of culminated on this week?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That you wanna wake up and immediately start working on it and then you don't wanna fall asleep because you still have more work to do. Like that motivating fire.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is burning again in my heart and that's amazing, like it's so cool!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like, it motivates me to move forward and work on these big projects and it makes me so excited.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To be able to do these things for you guys, and to be able to do these things, period, BECAUSE of you guys. So, that's why I actively encourage you guys to pursue your creative side so much, because there's so much untapped potential that you have yet to see. You're chipping away at the artist inside of you, and you just need to keep


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Digging until you see the whole picture of what you can do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'm trying to be like, you know, less than inspirational here, but what I'm just trying to get across to you guys is there is potential in all of us. And I've said it many times before, but know that I do believe


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That you can craft into the person that you want to become. And no one is gonna hand it to you, no one's going to give it to you, you have to work at that yourself. Whether it's an artist under there, or uh, uh, an engineer under there, or uh, inventor under there, or whatever is under there, you craft that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know that I tend to get overly excited about these things, but that's just because I'm very passionate about this idea. The idea that you guys


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have so much potential in you, because in me, like I know for a fact that I'm not incredibly talented. The only thing that I do is ramble like an idiot in front of a camera, but I get so much joy out of this gift that you guys have given me, like the gift of this YouTube channel.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like the gift of the opportunity to be an idiot in front of a camera. The, the opportunity to do these amazing, amazing things with amazing people. I just want to get the words out. Ah!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just know that in each and every one of you, I firmly believe that there is the potential to do something amazing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it just takes time to find that burning drive that moves you forward.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In time, it's very close, I keep tantalizingly teasing it, but it is close, and it is amazing, and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be able to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So thank you everybody so much for watching, and as always, I will see you in the next video. Buh-bye!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, yeaah, I mean, I guess I started out just interviewing BMX riders and just underground quote unquote SoundCloud rappers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just cause, you know, I was just friends with, I've been running a BMX business. Like I basically started the first BMX website in like 2006. Like I was the first one to really.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have like a website for, you know, news and videos and everything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exactly, because I was inspired by the early hip-hop blog wave in like 2005, because I was just a rap nerd.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm obsessed with BMX at the same time. I'm spending so much time on this BMX message board. I start to see these things emerging as like actual businesses online.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For me, my version of BMX was going out with my friends, riding bikes around downtown or in the woods or whatever, trying to learn some tricks, trying to maybe make some videos every day. I did that for like 20 years. Like that was my whole life. So naturally like running a website about it just came to me super naturally and also it was the fact that I was like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Most enlightening experience ever because you go to Union Square and you got like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mind blowing, like everybody, like there were some of the best riders in New York who were just hanging out with all these regular people just at Union and like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The level of like foolishness, crazy, ignorant shit that was happening was ridiculous, you know, cause, you know, these dudes would start a fight with whoever, they would like, you know, grab a dude's toupee off his head and just go running, some shit like that, ride by the fruit stands and just knock all the apples off the fruit stands.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From my perspective, shit has got a lot more calm and cool.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like a lot of the cultural norms have changed with that because when I was young, it was like more cool to be this crazy punk rock, ridiculous person who was drinking all the time, a lot of shit. When I go hang out at the skate park, there's a bunch of chill little pothead kids that are just hanging out smoking spliffs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Riding their bikes, messing around on their phones. Kids are different now. It's like when we were...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You being older than me even more of an extreme sense, but it feels like each generation that goes by gets a little bit less.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's weird though to think that at that time the idea of like an art gallery for hip hop and like having something that was more high class and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was just over time, cause I was doing that website for like over 10 years, I just started to think about more and more ways that I could branch out and do something that would be bigger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More of a impact and stuff, so I started to get real obsessed with social media and just really interested in YouTube and stuff. Started to do vlogs and I started to do podcasts and one of the first podcasts I did was with this dude, Xavier Wolf, who was like a big underground icon at the time and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Interviews where I interviewed Zach, the dude who runs FTP, which is a really popping club in LA. I interviewed the Suicide Boys who are just starting to blow up as like, you know, underground rappers. I interviewed Lil Yachty, like his first interview when he was like 16, when he was signed to Coach K like two days before that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you know, it's just like doing all these different interviews that started to hit and really kind of like build an image for what the podcast was about just based on who I was associating myself with and who we were doing content with and we just got that image early on of being extremely concerned with underground rap and being very early on stuff and I wasn't really going out of my way to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To get that image, that was just genuinely the shit that I was interested in, is that usually by the time shit...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gets to like a really big level, like a lot of times by the time an artist gets around to putting out their first album, I've almost lost interest. Like I already, I've always been that kind of rap fan where I was just kind of just rabidly like consuming everything to the point where, uh, I was just sort of ahead of the curve, I guess, and then just started to sort of manifest through the podcast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, pretty much there's YouTube ads, which is a big part of it. There's, uh, merchandise, which is a big part of it. And then there's like, we'll do ad reads for various products. I've been


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Support the channel and stuff, but we do these like long ass live streams where kids just send money for us to check their shit out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, in a sense, but it's kinda weird because a lot of times I'll meet YouTubers who are objectively like more popular than me on a YouTube level, but they still are kinda freaked out by what I'm doing just because to a lot of YouTubers rap is this like untouchable world that they can't possibly be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And yeaah, to be real, like in the BMX world, it's like, think about what an average day is as a BMX driver. You're going out on your bike for 8, 10 hours in a day in a van, dirty as hell, you're like, literally people are like just cutting themselves open and falling down and getting dirty all the time. So I don't know, to me like, just,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like that 10 years of that on the media side really prepared me to deal with kids from the hood who just want to make art. It's like not really. People always act like rappers are so crazy and shit and to me it's kind of like they don't seem that different from


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The BMX dudes that I was hanging out with, maybe they're a little bit more complicated because they tend to be wrapped up in all kinds of different shit, but really at the end of the day, this is what it is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The money is the crazy part to be real. Yeaah, that changes everything. Cause if you're a professional BMX rider and you really kill it,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You might be making five, ten thousand dollars a month. And obviously if you're a rapper killing it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nah, but I mean, like, okay, if you want to compare me to Charlamagne, it's like Charlamagne is super dope at what he does, and they build something really crazy, and everything's awesome about that. I have a huge amount of respect for him. I end up watching those interviews all the time to prepare for my interviews, but


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's kinda like they're more focused on people who are a little bit more established, whereas like, for me, like, my ideal interview, like, you know, I interview ABG Neil, he has 60,000 followers on Instagram, but,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It got like 400,000 views on that interview just because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it's like he's, he's brand new coming out. I find like that's who people really, really get excited for me to interview is like, I think I might've done Lil Tech as his first interview and he's blowing up right now and people like, I mean, I just take a lot of pride in being able to like tap in with artists that are coming up before they're blown out, before they did a hundred different radio interviews.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I remember the first time I hung out with a girl and she had never seen the Simpsons or Seinfeld and I was just like damn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The basic expenses and also it made sense to me too because it's like, you know, I know drivers expensive, like you gotta pay a driver for a couple hours.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I didn't think that they were going to make such a big deal out of it, but I mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you know what the interesting thing is about that? Is that it's like, it's so possible and so easy to imagine asking you about your time with Jay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In a really clunky, shitty, boring type of way and especially because you as an interviewee are clearly okay with telling the interviewer


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To shut the fuck up, cuz I seen you do it too, Charlamagne, and then before Envy specifically, because they were trying to ask you about the J thing in a fucking boring way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that the reason why that interview is a success is cause there actually was a relevant thing to talk about. The timing was great. The timing was good, but then also it's like we got to it in a natural way. So you felt comfortable enough at that point that you just opened up in a way that you previously had not really done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, it's weird how much goodwill you can buy just through music. Like people will make the most excuses for somebody if they love their music.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the quote, for sure. You gave it right to him. And as an interviewer, I'm thinking as you say that, I'm like, oh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He just gave it to him. He just wrote the headline for him, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Average video that gets a million views for us might make two to three thousand, which is kind of low.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That one, for whatever reason, because we had two different clips. We had the full one and then this short one. I think combined might have made from just YouTube ads might have made like almost 10,000.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which is like almost 2,000, 2 million views total between it and it made almost 10,000 and then we also put an ad on it and the ad I think paid like about 3 to 4,000. So that was a good


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Get that many views off an average video. I do interviews all the time that might make


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, $200, $300, it is what it is. You can't really think about it like that because you never know which one's gonna go out of the, get blasted out of the park.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It seems confusing to people because it was some like crazy ass kid. It wasn't no like gangster ass dude. It wasn't no robber. It was just a crazy fucked up kid with a fake gun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I got to look like I fucking really got ran up on with a gun, but then when we figured out that it wasn't a real strap, it was like, oh damn, I was never really in danger, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That dude was almost in danger because that kid almost got his head blown off by the dude that I was with. So that would have been weird, but luckily we avoided that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's a fine line between making content about shit that you're into and then just like shamelessly exploiting


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Black culture, which obviously there's plenty of white people that have done that throughout our, uh, time. My time paying attention to hip hop and it's like, it's a fine line and like, I don't get mad when I see people say that about me because the truth is that I probably stepped over the line and done some stupid ass shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And been too comfortable when talking about black shit on camera. And, you know, I'm just trying to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good on camera, trying to like figure out how to talk about shit and everything like that. So I mean, I'm open to the criticism. I don't mind when I see people saying shit like that about me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. No, I mean, but I mean, there's a lot of situations that I'm in, like where, you know, you literally might be interviewing a rapper who's a teenager who


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is, you know, famous to whatever degree because his music is also famous for like a murder charge or like a shooting or whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's like, how do you as a white person, this is just things I think about, how do you have a conversation with that person who's 18 years old in a respectful way that is acknowledging that that's something that is


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exciting for people that people want to hear about whatever toward past people have, but then also approach it in a way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's just always a situation where you wanna be just considering how you're having those conversations. The drug shit, you know, you interview rappers who like literally are like mostly famous for making catchy songs about doing drugs, but then also you just realize what opiate abuse is for the culture and the horrible effect that it's been having on


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People in the rap world for a long time and outside the rap world, of course, but I mean, it's just, I'm not going to sit here and act like I've always


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Put my best foot forward. There's definitely been conversations that I looked at later on. I was like, man, this shit was tone deaf. I look like a fucking dickhead. Whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like, you know, I mean, I think in terms of being like a culture vulture, it's like, I see people in the media that I look at and I'm like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Close the door on having a conversation with somebody who says that kind of shit about me because I think that about shit that other people have done, you know, at times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And sometimes you gotta take the L and you gotta monetize yourself taking the L because like I just posted this interview with Slim400 who's a friend of mine and what happened was that his manager sent me a text message after he got shot up and told me about him getting shot up and I fucking posted it on Twitter and I forgot to blank out the name of the hospital he was at.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Slim bugs out on me on camera and he was cool about it. He was like, you know, I'm sitting here having this conversation with you because I like you and because I respect you and stuff, but that was fucked up. And so then I took that and I put it on YouTube and I titled it the same way that I would think that I would title it if he was calling out somebody besides me because I'm like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did something stupid and I deserved to be called out for it, so I gotta, I gotta promote it as well, you know, I gotta put my own ass out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rappers sorta like the BMX kids that I was like out filming and hanging out with for all those years. I would kinda say the same thing about YouTubers in general where it's like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I could just empathize with what they're going through and like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ever since pretty early on, I remember like I got a nadeshot interview super early on, it was like a gamer, dude, he's like a boss, got his own brand, all this crazy shit, and like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I was just geeked because my shit was still kind of small at the time and Nate Shaw wanted to do an interview with me and that's when I realized I'm like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even the biggest YouTubers are possible to do my podcast because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was just kind of my entry point to then be able to try to get somebody like Shane Dawson or Tricia or whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's weird because I feel like in the rap world, like, I meet rappers all the time, and it's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They either don't know who I am or they know who I am and they fuck with me. So that's like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel good about that, I guess, just that I feel like I meet a lot of rappers who are genuinely like fans or...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At least just see what I'm doing and they respect it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know. I mean, that's honestly the best feeling because when I started doing rapper interviews and shit, I didn't know one rapper. I didn't know one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I remember I saw Jim Jones drive by in his car one time in New York and I was hyped. That was about all I had going on, man. I didn't know shit. Like, you know, I was like, and to be honest when I started the BMX website, I didn't


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I didn't know one professional BMX rider and that's just way easier to meet a professional BMX rider than to meet a rapper, you know? So it's like, I kinda like use


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Creating content about the niches that I was interested in as my way to basically get into both industries.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every interview I do, like, I've seen probably more bad interviews than anybody because I'm always like doing research to get ready for somebody else's interview. So I go watch some interview that they did with some chick on Vimeo that has 3,000 views and it's like the worst piece of shit ever. And so I realized that like one of the biggest things


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] About doing interviews is that you just have to have the respect of the person that you're interviewing. So to me it's like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I just do dope content with people on an underground level,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On a, you know, if I, if I, I just interviewed Trey the Truth, it's like that interview's not gonna get a million views, but people who really know about the music world and like really respect Texas and shit, probably be like, damn, Trey the Truth gave this dude an hour of his time, I'll go do an interview with him too, because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like, it's just all about building up that level of respect from...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean it's a tricky decision for somebody like me because it's like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm looking at how I'm doing right now and like realistically, I could maybe make a couple hundred thousand dollars a month, excuse me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I could probably make a couple hundred thousand dollars a month doing what I'm doing independently.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I could go off and I could fucking do a TV show that's gonna take up fucking so much of my time and they're gonna give me like fucking what like 20 grand or some shit like 40 grand they're gonna give me jack shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the thing is is that I'm, like, the way I see it is like, I see what you're doing where you're entirely independent and you have your own platform and you're just trying to draw people into that platform. For me, I feel like I'm just finessing the platform of YouTube because realistically,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And all the Suicide Boys music was blowing up on YouTube and what was it autoplaying next or what was it recommending on the sidebar, it was recommending that interview. So our channel was getting huge amounts of subscribers from that interview and that effect still happens to us all the time in the sense that that's a big part of it is that people are watching all these rappers on YouTube so then they find our content and the related videos.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The problem there was, uh, can you think of 10 or 20 people that you want to see talk about hip-hop? Cause I don't know if I can think of fucking 4.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, that's, that's real. I think that the thing for me is that if I'm gonna take my audience, you know, we have 3 million YouTube subscribers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like if we're going to create content around BMX still, I want to make it content that people can enjoy on like a bigger level.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got a serious affection for podcasting as an art form though. I look at Joe Rogan as like kind of what I want to be in a lot of ways cause he just has his lab, his blank fucking room, nothing in there, there's no people allowed in there and he just gets motherfuckers to come in and he has two, three hour long conversations with them where they just get deep as fuck and to me that's like a big part of-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you know, we do the weed, and that's a big part of it. I have the bike shop on Melrose. We sell bikes, we sell clothing, we sell, you know, kendamas, the ball and stick toy. I'm not sure if you're familiar with that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kandama is like this wooden Japanese, uh, ball and stick toy. We saw them for $40. They're really cool. I'll give you one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A bunch of different stuff under the nojumper banner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My favorite artist right now, I've been driving around listening to that new Young Thug a lot. He's probably like my favorite rapper of the modern generation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm a big, big Kodak fan too, if we're talking just broad, big artists for me over the past few years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I look at Juice WRLD, who's like a good friend of ours, and he's like 19.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I respect people like you for the same reason I respect Joe Rogan where I'm saying like, this is a dude who had a massive TV show. He could go get another massive TV show right now. He goes and hosts the UFC shit. He got everything in the world that he could do if he wanted. He always is talking about different business opportunities that people are throwing at him and people wanting him to do this and do that.

[Assistant] Grow that platform and you just don't have to deal with anybody on some bullshit corporate level and, and that's what it's important to me.

[Assistant] End of the day, we're all trying to monetize doing good shit for the culture. Bringing new shit to the table, but then also being able to make sure. We're not working so hard.

[Assistant] I mean, I feel like I'm still working at getting into my groove with the podcast to be honest. Like I, I feel like I'm just like continually accepting my identity as just somebody who really cares about just

[Assistant] I don't know, I just got a house. I'm having a hard time imagining why I would need a house any bigger than that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. No, no, no. I'm pretty happy with how big the house is, but I'm assuming in 10 years maybe it'll be bigger. Uhm, I don't know, I just want to keep growing the media company side of things, the content.

[Assistant] I kind of feel like I'm there in terms of doing the interviews. My AC is broken, so that's definitely one thing that 10 years from now I want to have fixed.

[Assistant] I feel you though because I feel like I'm caught up on a lot of million dollar dreams right now and I don't got no billion dollar dreams. Like I don't got no like crazy

[Assistant] My advice for you, uhm, first thing that comes to mind is just

[Assistant] When you're looking at somebody's Instagram, look at the followers and then pay very close attention to the likes on the photos. Yeah, just like, just observing, like just so you know that you're not getting

[Assistant] I just don't want you to be getting duped by anybody who got fake clout. Cause there's a lot of fake clout going on out there, man. Fake YouTube views, fake followers, fake everything. It's crazy. It's a jungle.

[Assistant] You know, you really gotta like, like, you don't want an interview until...

[Assistant] There's enough attention or like enough of a reason to already want an interview because I feel like an interview is kind of like sabotaging yourself to a certain extent and like because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Either you all of a sudden have an interview on a platform and people aren't necessarily interested in it, or you just sort of become that thing. Like I know plenty of artists and rappers who've like done like a bunch of DJ Vlad interviews and nobody knows any of their music.

[Assistant] And a lot of times I end up having to have that conversation with people where I'm basically like, listen, I'm not giving you an interview and it's because I fuck with you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll sometimes click on interviews from people I don't even know who they are. Maybe I like heard their name in passing or whatever.
