#314 - Dior Homme Parfum 2025: Masterpiece or Reformulation Disaster?
Dior Homme Parfum 2025 takes some unexpected turns - including a rather significant spill that turns our recording table into an impromptu diffuser! As we analyze the notes of iris, amber, patchouli and vetiver, we contrast our experiences with community feedback and grapple with an important question: should reformulations be judged on their own merits, or forever live in the shadow of their predecessors?
hello everybody, welcome to the cologne podcast I'm mike, I'm ryan.
Myke:We're two best friends.
Ryan:We're going on a fragrance journey, smelling fragrances, giving you uneducated opinions today we are going to be smelling a re-bottle, a reformulation, yeah, of dior homeomme Parfum 2025.
Myke:This is the new one. This is where all the controversy is happening.
Ryan:Yeah. We go into the store, the young lady says, hey, we got this new one. You got to smell, we get it. We're about to do this episode. But when I look it up, there's two different bottles. There's one from 2014. There's one from 2025, right, Right, yeah, or 2025. So I went to our lovely Patreons, because we have a few in there that are really smart Smarter than us, if I'm being real.
Myke:Yeah, we kind of let all the hard work be done by them.
Ryan:Yeah, and one of them happens to be the one the only Medias of Clackers. Yes, he's the only one to that tier. There's only one slot. He's subscribed to it. He's a badass the medias clackers.
Ryan:His name is jonathan bleep and he is usually our go-to guy of finding information. But I made this little image up, I put both these balls, I said what's the deal on this? And that's when he wrote us and he said the original came out in 2014, was put in a new 100 ml bottle in 2020 with the same formula code and then reformulated in the new bottle for 2025 by Mason Francis Kirchhoff. So is this Mr Mason taking the reins of this business? Is he steering in a new direction? You think this is going to be good? Think it's going to be bad?
Myke:Well, first of all, his name isn't Mason. Oh really, his name is just francis kirk sean. Why?
Ryan:is there a?
Myke:name in front of it. Well, mason is like for his brand. Yeah, we learned that early on, actually friend of the podcast maya, that's right, she did give us information yeah, so his name is francis kirk.
Ryan:Sean and continue you just had to come out and just say I was an idiot really quick had to make sure that we can't afford that.
Myke:Yeah we can't afford to get back on odate jerks again. Can't take too many more hits.
Ryan:This ship is going down but yeah, that's we're gonna do. You think it's gonna be good? Do you think it's gonna be bad? Because apparently it's very polarizing right now.
Myke:Yes, I think our best bet is to smell it with the intent of not comparing it to anything we've known previously, yeah, and smell it as its own thing, and we'll probably be better off, because if we end up being like solo bignoy 2K Frank Grantica, we might be disappointed. Just listen to what he says. I'm listening. Dior Colin, dior Parfum is too masculine for today. No room for masculine, toxic masculinity. Make it soft. Let's give it to Kirkjohn. Kirkjohn Colin. I make it soft. I'll take out kirk john. Kirk john colon. I make it soft. I'll take out leather. I'll take out ood. I'll add soy. We'll make dior soy boy parfum. Wow, someone's salty that is. I mean the comment section is full of people just going like dior's dead. Time to buy backup bottles of the original. Damn, I mean, it's a house on fire over there have we smelled the 2014 original?
Myke:we've smelled, I know, intense dior. What did we smell? 2020 or something like that. The parfum, the one that got discontinued really quickly. Yes, and I remember smelling that one and going I liked it. I wrote a little love letter to it. You did, yeah, I loved it.
Ryan:So I'm hoping that I love this as well, well, I am too, but before we do, we got to give our one night stand review of the bottle we just had to ship away and were really sad about. Oh yeah, just because it was expensive, we didn't pay for it. You got it in Milan Zerjoff's Purple Lachinto.
Myke:Hit the music Todd.
Ryan:Yeah, one Night Stand Review. Well, mike, after going to Milan, staying a night there, yeah, a few nights. Then coming back with said bottle of Purple Lachento by Zerjoff which, by the way caveat here there was a cool little like. When you open the box, there was like this cool pattern in there through this clear sleeve, and you were like, oh, you know that pattern we were seeing, like there's a scarf in there. Yeah, you pop it off and you got a pretty little scarf to wear.
Myke:And it was cool. But all that aside, what do you think about purple agento? I really, really like it. I think that it is more feminine. Yes, very much so, but I do love the smell of it. I'd love to smell it on any lady passing by. It's a beautiful fragrance, way overpriced, definitely agree with that I. But it's loud, dry down is very beautiful. But we did have a friend smell it and they said, oh, this smells like carpet cleaner, like Febreze carpet cleaner. Oh yeah, and it kind of halfway ruined it for me. Yeah, it kind of like got in my head after that Still a beautiful smell, but I started attributing like a cheapness to it. Yeah, and that doesn't seem fair.
Ryan:Let me back that up First. I agree with you. Are you saying it's a skip sample buy?
Myke:I think it's a sample, and if you're freaking wealthy then it might be a buy, but other than that, I just can't ever say buy on a price like that. I just can't say it.
Ryan:It had to be ungodly. Yeah, To back up your sentiment there. I agree with everything you just said. I'll just leave it at that. It's a sample, but I recently got some hand washing soap from Bed Bath Beyond Okay, Some random stuff and I picked one. For some reason, every time I wash my hands in it now it smells like the Bissell carpet cleaner stuff, and now that's all I can associate with. So I feel like I'm like cleaning a dirty house or something with my hand. It just it's gross now. Now my hands smell dirty is what I'm trying to say interesting, even though it smells clean yeah, because still I attribute that smell to cleaning something dirty, so it just feels gross now.
Ryan:So I was like the first time I was like eating a sandwich. I was like what the fuck I was?
Myke:like I smell like a clean, dirty sandwich but I get what you're saying.
Ryan:Somebody attributes something like you know, this one was kind of a house cleaner thing, a carpet cleaner, and you go damn.
Myke:It kind of takes the power away of like its elegance in a way yeah, it's like one of those things where you're like staring at a picture, but for a certain time and they're like, if you look really hard, you see the rabbit, and then all you see is the rabbit after that you know what I mean.
Ryan:Those like eye illusion. Yeah yeah, I was like Willem from freaking Mallrats. Like I got a lunch, I've got a drink. I'm going to stay here all day until I see this goddamn sailboat, but I can never see it. Oh yeah, I can see like the 3D effect thing going on, I can never make out the image.
Myke:Oh, that one's, yeah, where you have to like cross your eyes and slowly bring them back to normal.
Ryan:Yeah, yeah okay, so it's a sample to a possible buy if you like it, but we're ready to get on to this. I want to see if there's some controversy here, because there's some information I'm gonna drop on you.
Myke:That's just gonna blow your mind all right, let's do it you first, buddy. Okay, I'm a little worried about the way we're gonna do this, because it's not in an atomizer. I feel like that does kind of add something to it. So I think it like distributes the properties of it a little and it aerates it a little bit as well, which is, I mean, a lot of bit, really a lot of bit.
Myke:It's a little dauber here yeah, oh shit, oh, my god, freaking idiot, fuck, you just spilt the whole goddamn thing. Well, goddamn it smells good yeah that's all you're gonna smell every episode from now till we fucking cancel this show. Dude, I'm I'm going to make a quick little video here.
Ryan:Hold on real quick, guys. I am a goddamn moron, am I not a goddamn moron? He's a goddamn moron. Fuck Yep.
Myke:But it do be smelling good. It does smell good, smells really good. I kind of get that sort of leathery.
Ryan:You want to dash your arm in this or something Like rub it in. I guess I'm getting some.
Myke:Basically got a tiny pond of Dior Homme.
Ryan:I fucking spilled the shit out of this. God damn it.
Myke:I'm literally. He spilled about five mil of it all over the table. Fuck, hey, now I mean I can smell it everywhere now, but it's got this like leathery suede, it's that softness, probably that iris poking through. You know how weird geniuses and can smell every note.
Ryan:Oh yeah, Hold on.
Myke:Now he's daubing it up with his shirt. This is fucking. Okay, we got to start doing video episodes. This is a spectacle.
Ryan:Sorry, I wish we were just putting on, but I'm not. I cannot believe. I just spilled the whole goddamn thing, dude. Yeah, good job, all right.
Myke:Yeah, this smells pretty good, doesn't it? Yeah, what are you picking up, sweet?
Ryan:Yeah, sweet, maybe a little woodsy here, possibly Very faint though, but it's very sweet, feels very 90s for some reason, really, yeah, yeah feels a little old school or something. I think this is nice. I'm trying to think what they meant by, you know like it removes some masculine, because I kind of smell the masculinity in this. It's like a 90s I don't want to say fresher, like you know, like citrus 90s had, like this kind of I don't know how to explain it what's the? All the fragrances kind of had a little. Hmm, it's not necessarily citrus, what's the best word for it, but it's fresh. It's almost a little shower jelly, a little bit of woodsy kind of, a little bit of mixture of both yeah, it's almost like they were like, can we make this more modern smelling?
Myke:yeah, and guys, you know we're late to the party with fragrances so we've only been at it, you know, working on now four years I guess. But my thought when it comes to dior home, that line, is that it is a bit androgynous, it is a bit unisex, okay. So I was kind of shocked to get the salty review where they were saying it's overly masculine, because I felt like there was, remember, that kind of makeup-y, lipstick-y type vibe to it and to me. The parfum that we smell now I don't know that we've smelled the original to our own parfum, but the newer iteration that we smelled right at the start of this had a salty sort of rich, buttery vibe to it that I really liked, okay. So I don't know that this is just a great departure from that.
Ryan:It does still smell like it's in the line in the family of those fragrances, I agree it smells good and, honestly, let me kind of give you the notes, for there's not a lot. This is going to bug everybody. But top notes are iris. I guess I kind of get that because I feel like that's what all of them kind of have, right. Yeah, that kind of makeup-y, lipstick-y, and middle notes is amber and then base notes are patchouli and vetiver. So I guess that could be kind of the woodsy aspect I'm kind of getting.
Myke:You know the skin and the card are so different right now. Okay, on the card I do get a very woodsy. There's more to it. Yeah, it's a little less sweet. On my skin it's very sweet, hmm, but it is a very rich smell. Yeah, it's like a very decadent, thick sort of a smell.
Ryan:Sophisticated maybe, yeah, I would say that Does. Sophisticated maybe yeah, I would say that Does it make you think it's expensive.
Myke:I guarantee you it's expensive.
Ryan:Well, let me tell you the price and popularity. Okay, the price for this bad boy, for 2.5 ounces 180 buckaroonies Shit. So you probably spilled 20 bucks right there. I literally probably spilled 20 bucks. You ready for the popularity on this bad boy With over? And this is wild, because this is a new fragrance. We never see a lot of votes for a new fragrance. This has a lot of votes Almost 2,000 votes, damn. And this is pretty new. Yeah, so that should be an indicator. Are they like fireb? It has a hardcore rating of a 2.66 out of 5.
Myke:It just goes to show you the majority of the community online is pretty damn negative. They're toxic for no reason. Oh yeah, they're just showing up to take shots.
Ryan:But I mean to kind of play devil's advocate here. Some of them may love the original Sure, and so that's what they have in their memory, and if somebody's changing up something they love, it probably piss you off, yeah.
Myke:What companies should probably do is just rename the damn thing yeah.
Ryan:I kind of agree, because if Lunarosa Carbon came out tomorrow, yeah, and it was Lunarosa Elixir or something like that.
Myke:Yeah.
Ryan:Yeah, and it was, you know, lunarosa Elixir or something like that. Yeah, yeah, and they changed everything about it. You probably would not be a fan.
Myke:I'd be crushed. Yeah, yeah, I need to think more like that. You're right, I need to be more empathetic.
Ryan:I mean, I'm just, I don't think they're all bad, but then I think some people don't give it a chance. I'm probably there's probably it, just because I hate that it's reformulation, right.
Myke:Yeah, never even smelled, it just came out to say, man, fuck these guys, but for me it smells really good, but I, you know, I don't have it to compare to the other ones. I've never smelled the other one right and we weren't like huge fanboys of it. Yeah, I think that is the issue. Yeah, I really gotta. Let me just, you know, put myself in that lunarosacarbons seat, because I mean, that might be, if I had to nail down a signature scent, if you just could only have one fragrance, one fragrance, I might go with that, which is wild and it says a lot about me, but it is what it is. I can't imagine if they go, hey, we're coming out with not only and here's another thing not only is it not a flanker, it's the replacement of. It means everything moving forward. Yeah, is this from now on? Yeah, so it wouldn't be lunarosa carbon elixir, it would literally just be lunarosa carbon. Yeah, the newest version. And if it was a great departure, yeah, I would be absolutely. Would you be flaming the forums? Yeah, I probably would look at me, I've come full circle now. I mean I would be absolutely.
Myke:Would you be flaming the forums? Yeah, I probably would look at me, I've come full circle now. I mean I gotta be honest with you guys, though, yeah, that's probably where I'd be. I'd be fucking pissed. I'd create a platform out of this. You know, podcast. I'd be out there. I'd be putting my face on it too, though I would be proud to admit. Yeah, you guys, if you're out there, you can't be doing the oday jerks thing. Yeah, you know, hiding behind a alias, taking shots. Be a man, you're gonna say the damn thing.
Ryan:Say the damn thing and own up robes coming for you, god, are you gonna mention him every episode? Now? I might have to. This is gonna be the fuck yeah v shred.
Myke:Seriously, fuck v shred.
Ryan:Yeah, it'll be that, but robes yeah yeah, I mean, for me, man, this smells really good. It reminds me kind of a 90s vibe. Maybe, you know, maybe we're gonna see something happen in the industry. Maybe they're gonna kind you know, it's kind of like, you know, in the whatever fucking 70s kind of got popular for a bit you know what I'm saying Like people wearing bell bottoms or something. Okay, maybe that's going to happen in the furniture industry, where it's like maybe they're going to kind of rehash, come back around. Yeah, I do think we've had too much of like safe stuff lately or just like kind of the same office, whatever the one you know, or just like kind of the same office, whatever the one, millions, yeah, renamed a thousand different names exactly. So maybe they're going to do that. I'd be open for it, I'd be happy, yeah.
Myke:But we've had multiple people say like now gucci guilty has done a pretty fancy schmancy niche quality type thing. Yeah, we could see some daring, risky sort of chances taken by the fragrance houses.
Ryan:Yeah, and you know, I'm going to go ahead and say this person what they thought about it, because they have helped us out so much. We just mentioned the beginning, but again, if you're not a patron, go be one, because there is a lot of people in there.
Myke:Yeah, and you'd be able to interact with the king, king Clacker, himself.
Ryan:Mr Jonathan Bleep, and this is what he had to say, and not to cloud your judgment or anything. But the new one has terrible laughing emoji.
Myke:Whoops. Well, it's a good thing we smelled it before we read that.
Ryan:Yeah. And then Wildcard commented underneath that and said I've only put my nose to the new one. I realized Iris isn't for me, but I thought it was okay, you know.
Myke:Yeah, I could see how this could be divisive. I smell it and maybe if I was really into the other ones no, I mean, I really did like that Dior Parfum. God, I think it was 2020 was the one, I think it was 2020.
Ryan:Yeah, I would say, from what I remember that one, I really liked it. It was probably better than this honestly, yeah, it was more woodsy.
Myke:You didn't like it as much as you liked. Dior Homme Intense.
Ryan:Yeah, I do love that one the most because it's like lipstick in a makeup bag. It's kind of sexy yeah.
Myke:Hmm, I mean, look, if I was going to put my opinion out there and Jonathan Bleep's opinion out there and then try to tell the listeners who they should go with, I would 100% of the time, 10 out of 10 times, say you better trust King Meaty Clackers over me. Every single time I will preface by saying that but I don't hate it, I don't think it's terrible. I'm not saying that Jonathanathan's wrong. I'm more than likely.
Ryan:I'm probably wrong, but it's not bad well, who would be wearing a fragrance like this? Because we both kind of agreed it's kind of classy and rich and sophisticated smelling. Who's that fit? Who would wear this us, us four years ago?
Myke:us four years ago we'd be wearing this. Okay, we'd go in and they'd sell us that it's a parfum first and they'd sell us that it's new. They tell us some notes, yeah, they'd be like I got the iris and the amber and the whatever and then it'd be some pretty girl that says it and then she'd go go like I absolutely love it. You know, I beg my boyfriend to wear it, yeah.
Ryan:And then I'd be like, hey, dude, we should probably get this, we'll take two. I think it's that Dude. I've literally been at the counter in recent months and there'll be a guy shopping, you know, trying to like. He's probably got a bag full of clothes he's done bought Right. Shopping, you know, trying to like. He's probably got a bag full of clothes he's done bought Right, trying to get dressed up, and he'll be like what do you think smells good?
Myke:You know asking the lady. Of course, every time we do that, we do it too. Every time I sit down at a restaurant, I'm like what do you like? What's your favorite dish here?
Ryan:You asked the waitress that oh yeah, I just next fat guy like me at our table and be like hey, would you get over there, hoss?
Myke:yeah, I mean, sometimes we order and then we look over and we see someone else's coming out and we go should have got the onion fritters.
Ryan:Speaking of fat guys, man, that one time we were in our favorite chinese restaurant, oh yeah, and we were literally going ham about the uh, this is what made us start the Eat the Menu podcast.
Myke:If you're a Patreon, there's a couple episodes up on that.
Ryan:But we're just talking about different Crab Ragoons and we turned because we felt like somebody just staring at us.
Myke:Yeah, you know that feeling you get like somebody's watching you.
Ryan:Dude, there's this older lady with her freaking jaw like gape looking at us and just like in awe she goes. I don't know what you boys are talking about, but god damn that sounds good, I'd eat. Anything y'all talked about is what she said yeah, she said one of those I want to say was mine.
Myke:Yeah, she said god damn, I'm hungry for some crab right now oh shit skip it, sample it or buy it. What are you gonna do, ryan?
Ryan:I don't know. Okay, because part of this is it's not bad but it's not blowing my mind. But then it right, as I'm asking, that I'm smelling the tester and it's kind of changing up a little bit, kind of getting something neat going on.
Myke:This is exactly why we do the one-night stand review. Yeah, because there's been plenty of times where like, does it, you know, because you'll get those fragrances that don't really do much, especially designer-wise, yeah, and we kind of go is it just wasting five minutes of an episode doing the one night stand review? But then there's the odd occasion that we really need it in clutch to communicate something like whoa, guys, hold on, it did something different. Yeah, we were there thinking one thing. We left thinking something else. We came back thinking another thing. Yeah, you know, we took a shower together freaking heat got going different smell.
Myke:Yeah, it smelled great on him, but better on me dude, it does smell good to me, it really does.
Ryan:I think it would have helped, like you said, to have some type of atomizer.
Ryan:We need to just have something like on the side here when we get I don't want to say we got fucked over, it's all they had, and god bless her forgiveness. Yeah. But whenever we're given something like this, we need to have like an atomizer that has never had anything in it. We can just be like, right, yeah, just buy a box of decants. Yeah, but I'm gonna tell you guys, I personally do like it now, right now. My opinion is this is a strong sample, so you can go to any department store and sample. This is easy, that's free. Go sample it. Yeah, depending on where this goes, this is either going to be just a sample or a buy, but it smells good. It's definitely not a skip, it smells good, yeah.
Myke:I'm with you on that. However, could it be that I've just traveled so much of the road now that my opinions and my curiosities are harder to wet? Yeah, because I remember smelling the previous and being well excited about it. And this I'm like, yeah, this is pretty good, but I don't have that same excitement and joy. But again, is it? Is it just that now we're shaded? Yeah, is it how? We've gone too far? We just can't come back from it. You just, you know, it's like a guy who's seen war. He comes back and you can have shells flying out of a gun hitting you in the face and you're just unfazed by it. Guy, can we tell a little bit? Yeah, I think we can so a client of ours.
Myke:They do some gun smithing if you will right, yeah, they like manufacture custom firearms for people and the guy could not him and another gentleman works with him could not be.
Ryan:They're the nicest guys you'll ever meet, nicest guys. They make us look like freaking assholes and so regularly. But they invite us out yesterday to go. They're like we want you guys shooting because they found out we don't.
Myke:We don't really shoot guns yeah, I was like I shot a bb gun a year ago.
Ryan:That's all that's us, you know so we get out there, we get to shoot 44 magnum a sig legion african.
Myke:Yeah, we're shooting handguns like giant ass revolvers.
Ryan:We're shooting different like rifles that you've seen in like I don't know the guy richie films and shit freaking some guns with freaking suppressors, some not yeah rifles that seriously were fucking insane and with optics on them to where we're like literally hitting targets from like 50 yards or more out like no big deal. I was further than that, dude, like like we were pros. They were so well calibrated yeah that's, that's the scary part. So mike's firing this gun and these shells are ejecting out yeah, I'm shooting.
Myke:First of all, I'm shooting this rifle that, like, is literally so heavy. By the time I'm done just hitting my targets, I go through one magazine, my arm is, it's like, trembling because of the fatigue of this thing and these guys are just unfazed, like. These guys are the main guy. We can't say everything. But he's well high up. He'd make rambo look like a you know, a kindergarten teacher. You know what I mean? Kindergarten cop. Yeah, exactly, he's fucking bad to the bone, this guy, yeah. And so we're shooting these things and the things, the guns literally smoking. It's getting so hot. And he's like, yeah, you still pump a few rounds through it, right? I'm like, are you sure this thing's not going to explode on me? He's like, yeah, that's fine. So I'm shooting and this thing's smoking. It's getting so hot and it's kicking out these shells of these.
Ryan:Yeah, and I'm behind Mike, and I guess we can call him an instructor in this case. He's to the right of you and kind of back. These shells hit him in the face and he literally doesn't even flinch, doesn't even close his eyes. He's just casually watching you continue shooting and a couple of them were just hitting his face, kind of moves out of the way gently after like two or three, unfazed, and then later you're shooting and like I guess the shells were arcing up high enough and he was catching these hot shells. Yeah, he caught like four or five of them and he was holding them for a good bit and when he handed them to me I couldn't hold on to them for a second. They were so goddamn hot. Yeah, this guy, he's a fucking hoss, he's a bear of a fucking man and he's one of those guys.
Myke:He's a real man guys. He's a real man because he's like could be so intimidating, it's going to sound highly erotic, but it's not. He could be so intimidating, but he's. You just feel safe around him, you feel comfortable around him.
Ryan:Yeah, Mark's not lying. This guy's like a real man. We're like coming around the corner. Hey, we just made some mac and cheese.
Myke:Yeah, exactly, I'm like I just want to call him dad at the end of the day. I just look up to this guy man. He's one hell of a dude Again, and it's not because he's out there playing John Wick.
Myke:The guy's legitimately such a nice guy and extremely talented on what he's building, for sure it's mind-blowing yeah it's, we were just blown away, but yeah, we had a good time, which, by the way, is not really something reiner, I feel like, is our vibe? That's not. We never go like, hey man, you want to go fucking shoot some guns? Boy, we're not those type, you know. But after yesterday I was like I might be that type. It was kind of fun, man.
Ryan:My favorite part was Mike is in a stance and he's got this handgun that has like a laser sight on it and he's shooting and I'm watching him. He looks like he's aiming right at the target. He couldn't be a mere 20 feet from it, yeah, and it's like, and every last one of them fucking misses.
Myke:I look up and I go am I missing that thing? And the guy's like yeah.
Myke:So just so you guys know mike's actually more dangerous because he doesn't know how to aim. Well, that's the thing is. You have these like optics in there. It's like they call them a red dot, you know, and anywhere that red dot is on it and it's gonna hit it. Basically, and I could not even see the red dot Whenever I went back to just using the regular iron sights that's on the gun you know the little notches on the top of the gun I was fine, yeah, but I'm like trying to use space age technology. I'm like I don't even see a dot in there. Is there a dot? You know, I couldn't get it.
Ryan:I'll tell you my favorite part if you're trying to make me look like a jackass.
Myke:Yeah, mine's even better. So we get it's like a six shot revolver and this thing is nasty. Yeah, it's like some dirty, hairy type shit, yeah. And we're standing out there and they have this. Um, they have, it's a steel target, yeah. And then in the middle of the target there's another steel plate that when you hit it it kicks back to let you know you got like a quote-unquote kill shot. Yeah, it sounds like you know the old cartoons guy has a spit tune you know.
Myke:So I go and then ryan goes and he's shooting this gun. I'm serious, seriously, like just looking at it could kill you. And ryan goes and he's shooting this gun. I'm serious, seriously, like just looking at it could kill you and ryan shoots, and shoots, and shoots. And then he kind of looks back, he's like that was all of them, right, guys? And the guy just goes I guess we'll find out in a second. And then ryan's like oh yeah, I guess I'll give it one more, and shoots. And it's still got a fucking bullet.
Ryan:And I'm I was like this is how people kill people, dude, a hundred can't count to six and, by the way, I was aiming at the target, just in case there was an extra live well, yeah, there was? I was like fuck, I like in my head thought I counted six.
Myke:Yeah, it's gun safety as finest. This is what we're talking about, you know, because that's what these guys are. I mean, these guys are literally military men, so they're teaching us the proper everything. Yeah, you know they're.

But even that, he was like I was trying to aim and he was like and you treat that like a real gun. He was making me face the opposite direction while I was learning my, my holding on this plastic gun, because that's how serious they are about it. Yeah, they're like if you're holding a gun, this is not child's play. Yeah, they are not kidding, it's crazy man.
