SPEAKER_05 3:42

Alrighty, Mr. Morris. Hello, hello, friend. How are you doing?

SPEAKER_00 3:48

Oh my gosh, we're doing well.

SPEAKER_05 3:50

So we're live and in color now. Are we going to play some music and let him dance? And yes, this is one of my questions. Ask riddles in chat. I mean, if if you want to dance, I mean, he he said BDs do anything, right?

SPEAKER_00 4:14

Oh, snap. The desk case. I should have played that uh that that uh what a privilege. Go back to it. This is the it's like one of my my uh my brother's favorite cuts, man. I love this, I love this song, and it's so it's so uplifting, it's positive. It has a cold blooded beat. Sometimes when I'm like gaming it, I'll play this in the background and then I'll just like phase out.

SPEAKER_05 4:37

Lock it in.

SPEAKER_00 4:38

He's like, I ain't placed where I used to be, though. What a privilege.

SPEAKER_05 4:46

Alright, so Morris, I'm gonna uh give you the floor. Tell us a little bit about yourself and where you came up with your stream name, friend.

SPEAKER_00 4:55

Oh, okay. That is a uh that's a really good question. So I came up with my stream name with Moors with three Zs because I've been playing video games since I was what, like third grade, second grade, first grade. And uh that I'm like a dad, you know, I have a career. Uh a lot of gamers used to think that I didn't, you know, I guess I didn't maintain the skills in terms of the time that I had to put on the sticks, but I put them three Z saying like, hey, don't sleep over. Because even though I have a I have a I have like a the family life, got those obligations, I got the um I got the uh the career, the federal career doing. I still got the skills, pay them bills. So uh yeah, that's where I got the three Z from Morris to swap that out from the S to the three Z. And then 1985 is just the year I was gone. That was a cold blooded year.

SPEAKER_05 5:46

I was gonna say, I've heard you say that was one of the best years ever because you know that was that was your year. So, what got you into streaming, Morris?

SPEAKER_00 5:56

You know what's crazy? Uh man, I wish uh Leah 82 was in here. Uh she's I know her, she's busy too, she works as well, and she uh she games. But Leah 82 also she actually inspired me. So a couple of um years back, I used to just be a um what do you call it? The lurkers. I was your friendly neighborhood lurker when it comes to just watching other people uh stream their content. So my friend Leah, I met her actually through and playing like Call of Duty and things of that nature, and she was probably the best game, aside from my wife Anya.

SPEAKER_07 6:28

Anya, she's good.

SPEAKER_00 6:31

But I met Leah 82, she like crushed my my rest of my teammates, and we're like, we gotta befriend her. We befriended her, a couple years passed. Next thing you know, she started streaming live, and we had no, I had no clue what tick what uh what Twitch was, and she was like, Yeah, I've been doing it, Morris, and I think you could really benefit from it. So I was like, hey, all right, I was too nervous, I was very skeptical. In my mind's eye, as exuberant as I am, I'm innately an introvert. Uh, if it wasn't for my mom who's also in the stream, glory to glory, and uh the military, it kind of brought me out of my my bubble or shell, if you will. So it made me want to play after kind of seeing her perform and do good, and then um had a crushing blow. I had a friend that had passed away last year around like May time frame. Um, he believed in me a lot. It was years we used to talk about me streaming, like, dude, I think you can do it. You have the charisma. You should say you have the panache, so you can do it, man. So I was very reluctant, but then with his passing, you know, it was kind of like me trying to pay homage to him, uh, believing in myself, and uh kind of moving forward. My brother also told me that I should be able to start streaming too. Both brothers, I got my uh brother from another mother, Miko 082, no, 086, and uh my actual brother, his name is uh Jeremy. He's uh he was in the uh he was stationed in the Navy, he did his thing, and uh he rocked out with flying colors as a veteran. So he inspired me. Uh the death of my uh my timely death of my friend inspired me. Leah 82 inspired me.

SPEAKER_05 8:06

And uh well, they definitely hit the nail on the head because you definitely have the charisma for sure. Like you are always so positive, always so happy, so cheerful. And Yoshi in chat says, You seem amazing. So, yes. You definitely are phenomenal when it comes to Hey, can Yoshi see me? Yeah, you're you're on uh our stream over here.

SPEAKER_00 8:33

Tell Yoshi, I went to Walmart and I got this sweater from Walmart. I got some milk and I got the sweater and I feel like it's shrunk on my way back home. I was like, it was so much more form fitting before. I don't know, and I put it on when I got home. I was like, I feel like the I feel like the Hulk or something, like I finished break it.

SPEAKER_05 8:50

Well, I mean we have the Hulk we had the Hulk on the loading screen, and judging by all the the characters that you sent me that you wanted on all of your overlays and stuff, I can we can tell that you enjoy some some comic book stuff and um just video games in general.

SPEAKER_01 9:06

Yes, yes. I'm an enthusiast.

SPEAKER_05 9:12

So you you kind of hit the nail on the head one with the last question, but how long have you streamed for? Like when was the exact time you started streaming?

SPEAKER_00 9:20

Wow. Actually, this year, this year, January. January January time frame was when I uh first initially started because um I had the password of my friend, he had passed away in May, and then we had his funeral in June, and it was just a pretty bad morning period for me. But uh within that morning period, I was able to I talk to my friends and everything, and you know, uh I start looking at more uh if individuals individuals have suffered a loss, you have a tendency to still listen to voicemails, look at text messages, look at photos, videos of when y'all already, when y'all were together. Um sometimes I wish I I used to pray to God, like, hey, like if you can be able to, I wish I can be able to get on my phone right now and just text him, like, hey dude, can you believe this? I'm like, I'm with UPM Bullet, the one and only UPM Bullet man. And I'm talking to him, and he's like, want to interview me. It's just it's an incredible honor. Like, we we here, we're doing it, we're succeeding. So um yeah, yeah, I started like uh in January. I created what's called like an itemized list of all of my PC equipment from like the the uh the graphics cars, the processors, motherboard, ram, all of that stuff. And um yeah, I had a friend, his name is uh his gamer tag is called Smackin' Cheeks. I don't know what inspired that to this day. I don't know what inspired that name, but his literally, we play Marvel Rabbles together. His favorite is the Punisher. You may see him on my on my stream, but yeah, Smackin' Cheeks was like an avid like PC builder. Like he's been doing it since he was in high school. So only thing he wanted was food. So I was like, dude, better with that. I ended up getting equipment that cost maybe like 1500. Drove down to where he was at. He was walking me through it, let me see what he's what he was doing. It was like it's like having like like geek squad, but then like just sit in like like 101. Like how to set up PC for dummies, and it was perfect. It was it was perfect. So he hooked it up, and then the rest was just like history. And then January, like mid-January is when I kicked off. I prayed about it, and then I just I just said it in God's hands, and I just went live from there.

SPEAKER_05 11:32

Yeah, there you go. And it's you know, you gotta love friends that are like that. You know what? Yeah, buy me some McDonald's, and I got you hooked up. It's like, you know, your mechanic friends, it's like, yeah, just bring a case of beer, we'll get it, you know, we'll get this motor torn out in no time. Just just hook me up, we'll be alright.

SPEAKER_01 11:48

Yes, so true, so true.

SPEAKER_05 11:52

So, do you stream on any other platforms other than Twitch, or are you just mainly solely on Twitch?

SPEAKER_00 11:58

Yes, actually I do. I'm I'm currently streaming on TikTok. So for individuals that don't have a TikTok uh uh Twitch account, I also stream on TikTok, and it's also a good way to garner more viewers. Uh a lot of individuals on TikTok. Oh my gosh, like the uh people pool is just immaculate. Same goes for Instagram too. So that's the next step I'm gonna do. Uh get a stream key. So I'm gonna also start streaming on Instagram as well. But I'm currently on Twitch and uh TikTok. I go off and on with YouTube. Sometimes it gets kind of finicky when I try to multi-stream with uh Twitch, YouTube, and TikTok, but I think my current meat and potatoes has been uh uh Twitch and uh TikTok.

SPEAKER_05 12:43

Is there any particular games you enjoy streaming the most? Or do you have a favorite type game?

SPEAKER_00 12:53

Games that I love streaming the most. Okay, it has to be undoubtedly Mama Rivals, it's like a uh a favorite of mine, and um and what encouraged that was actually seeing my children play. So uh you might have seen them doing a couple of my streams. So I got like my three kiddos, I got my daughter, her name is Misty912, I got my two twin boys. First one is uh CT64. Uh CT stands for classic tales because he's a fan of tales. Go figure, he has a dad that loves Sonic, so he loves Tales. And then my uh my other son, he plays too. His name is Lunar Eclipse. So yeah, I don't know which one of the three played Marvel Rivals before the other, but it was a free download, equivocal to Fortnite. But then they the way Fortnite does it, they get you hooked from the emotes to the skins to like everything else in between. So the game is free, but the rest of the downloadable content that they don't take you about super alluring. It's like it's like a fish hook. I'm like, ah so they trap me, they trap me so so much, EPN. So um uh my first character that I love playing on Marvel Rivals was the Hulk, but then I hated the fact that when you get when he would get hit, he would regress back to uh Bruce Banner. And I'm like, uh, I'm on a consistently aggressive Hulk. I want to I want to get KO'd as the Hulk. I don't want to get KO'd as Mr. Banner. Don't fit to Mr. Banner. You are extremely smart and an intelligent human being, but it's not like backtracking and running away and waving a waving a flag of retreat, trying to wait until I Hulkify again. So my next favorite character, uh, that I end up making it all the way to uh because you played before, right? You pinboards?

SPEAKER_05 14:35

I have never played Rivals, I've only seen people play it.

SPEAKER_00 14:38

We have to collab on it these days. I would literally do like a one-on-one with you, like for real, for real. It's it's so good. So um I start playing as a thing, it's considered a tank or vanguard player because you kind of I consider myself like if Marvel Rivals is the whole platform, it's kind of like a game of like fighting chess, and with that, the thing is almost like a rook, the rook of the game. So it really like pushes the envelope. So I played with him, loved him. Now I'm playing as Gambit, and uh I was nervous a little bit because they have different categories, like they have this thing called Blood Hunt, where you can fight uh like zombies, vampires, werewolves, and things of that nature. For y'all zombies and vampire enthusiasts, blood hunt is the thing that's pretty awesome. And then the next you have quick play matches, and then after that, you have your competitive matches when you really go against some what did CT say? The sweaties, I guess not the people that don't sleep that that this is their their main bread and butter game. Uh so yeah, I've been doing competitive matches and it's been pretty cool. But yep, Mobile Rivals.

SPEAKER_05 15:44

It's one of my favorites. So tell us about Retro Wednesday. So I know you say Rivals is your main one. So tell us a little bit about Retro Wednesday.

SPEAKER_00 15:54

Okay, yeah, um Retro Wednesdays. Uh so if I end up getting some new followers from working, hanging out with the coolest UPN bullet person known to man, be on the lookout for retro Wednesdays. I play 7 o'clock Eastern Standard Time. And I like to go down the roller decks of games that I used to play growing up from like almost what third, second, third grade all the way bleeding into now. So I'll play games like one of my favorites is like Sonic. I'll play uh next game I want to play is this game called Twisted Metal. Like, if y'all are Twisted Metal fans, y'all know exactly what I'm talking about. The game is epic. Another game I'll I uh want to play is um uh Def Jam. It's Def Jam Fight for New York. It's a nice, nice beat emo fighting game. So good. So I'm thinking, but yeah, um uh let's see. For Retro Wednesdays, I play those games. I love playing um uh definitely Sonic and Knuckles, one of my favorites. Oh, another favorite. My mom liked to play this game, uh Pac-Man. Perfect. Pac-Man, Miss Pac-Man. You got those Pac boots. Like, uh, it it takes me away. The Simpsons. I don't know if you remember The Simpsons. It was an arcade game. You can it was a punch beat em up. Uh I love you, burrito. You the best, man. Thank you for the bits, man. Those nice bitties, you the best, man. And uh Street of Rage, thank you, Ninja Fox. I played Street Rage one, two, uh Paper Boy, I did play Paper Boy. Let's go, Leah. I love you. Thank you for joining. And uh what else did I play? True Lies. I played that one in the past. Oh, thank you, medic 0330 Donkey Kong Country.

SPEAKER_09 17:37

Yep, yep, yep.

SPEAKER_00 17:39

I played Tekken 2. Oh my gosh, I'm having a brain fart, but I played so many different retro games since I've uh started playing because I have a game emulator. It's called a RetroPie Volume 5, and it has like thousands of games from like Super NES, Genesis, 3D, uh, 3DO, uh Dreamcast, um uh Atari. Like it's it's one of the reasons why I like playing the game the most, and you never and I receive the most notoriety because of people that game like me and you that are uh a little bit older but still kids at heart. So I love that.

SPEAKER_05 18:14

Hit me in the heart, it hit me in the feeling, man. Oh yeah, we're a little older.

SPEAKER_00 18:21

I can't get over these gray hairs, but we make it look so good.

SPEAKER_05 18:28

Salt and pepper shakers, let's go. Yeah, the the Retro Wednesday season also does um request as well. Because he, like he said, Medico330 that just came in chat, she requested Donkey Kong, he did that. I requested um Ninja Turtles, wasn't it?

SPEAKER_10 18:52

Turn off my alert.

SPEAKER_05 18:57

Yeah, I think I I requested Donkey Kong, he requested he did Donkey Kong, and yeah, so great, great times on Wednesday, and he normally does multiple streams too, so he um he'll do like a little bit of the retro Wednesday, then he'll come back on her and get back on his Marvel Rivals. So we got Marvel Rivals and we have Retro Wednesdays. So is there any type of games you will not play? Like, absolutely can't pay you enough, you will not play it.

SPEAKER_00 19:29

Um okay, and this is coming from somebody that actually liked scary games like The Resident Evils, Left for Dead. I love those games, but there's like there was a game that I saw you playing. It's called uh um Right, Nedre Fox, uh Phase Mobia. That game Yeah, that Phasmophobia, that game freaks me out because that I feel like I'll be I'll stay awake at night.

SPEAKER_05 19:56

Come on, man. That's my that is my comfort game.

SPEAKER_00 20:02

Like, because in no way sometimes like the ghosts be going through the walls and everything like that. And I mean, I don't know, I I guess that's what they do, but that's um that game, that game scares me, man. Dead by daylight is another game. The way they be screaming when they get hooked up into them little meat hooks and stuff, I love I'll watch it, but I I don't think I'll be I don't think I play it. You know what, you know what FaZe Mobia reminds me of was going down, Miss Ryan 64. She plays face mobia too. Um face Mobia reminds me of you remember that movie Tim Curry's it. It came out in like the 90s, like the 1990s.

SPEAKER_05 20:35

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Uh Pennywise.

SPEAKER_00 20:37

So like, yeah, Pennywise. So I remember my mom was like, You sure you want to watch this movie? And then I was like, Yeah!

SPEAKER_07 20:46

Anything, I can watch this.

SPEAKER_00 20:50

As soon as it was in like, he was like in a in the street underneath the little sewer drain, and he was like, Come on, Georgie, you want to float? Everyone floats down here. Get that red balloon you want. I was like, dude. Let's just say I did not sleep in my room. I slept with my mom that night in her room, and yeah, scary movies like that. Uh it creeps me out.

SPEAKER_05 21:14

Uh, Lady Riddles in chat says, What about survival building like Sons of the Forest?

SPEAKER_00 21:21

I've never heard I need to open up my repertoire when it comes to games. I've never heard of it. It's how is it? Is it like is it like Silent Hill type or it's a survival game.

SPEAKER_05 21:32

It's a survival game. You uh are sh you're airplane wrecked on an island and you're trying to investigate some stuff and figure out what happened to a family that disappeared all while trying to survive on being eaten alive by cannibals. I like how you move you mentioned that in the end. Burrito says Morse is an Airbnb. He's fly like air, also buffing beautiful.

SPEAKER_00 22:08

Burrito, you missed it in the chat. I told him I got this shirt from Walmart. I got some I got some uh some vitamin D milk and I got this shirt from Walmart, and it feels like it shrunk on the way back home. It's crazy. It fit it fit so much better when I was at Walmart in the fitted room. I was like, ooh, this is gonna look good tonight. It's gonna look good tonight. But yeah, it's kind of yeah, it's a little bit form-fitting.

SPEAKER_05 22:29

So if you're comfortable answering this, what do you do for a living? Like what is able to fund your streams?

SPEAKER_00 22:36

Wow, okay. As jovial as I am, I think uh a lot of people will be shocked. So I work for the Department of Justice, A.E. the uh drug enforcement administration, also known as the DEA. But I work from the HR standpoint. So when people say, like, oh snap, do they give you a gun and a badge? I'm like, nah. I mainly I feel like we I police them in terms of like their their uh their promotions, we handle that, we handle their benefits for uh the healthcare, the all the dental with makeup, their um reassignments, um, their duty locations, their though, all those changeovers, including recruitment and placement. So we handle a lot of things in regards to their employee records. And what I love about my job the most is when I'm when I'm doing the honor of onboarding new applicants. Like I love seeing veterans. So shout out to the veterans, my buddy J-Rock, he's currently serving. I love you, bro. Thank you so much. This dude is TDY, he's a master sergeant, he's gonna get shot in the butt, and two years later, he's gonna be a chief master sergeant after he takes it right there. J-Rock and Flocca. But man, like uh veterans, recent graduates, um I love that. Uh I love hiring and promoting uh really smart, talented, and able people. So, yep, that is the portion of my job at HR that I love. Now, the other portion of my job that I'm not a fan of is having to deal with you know suspensions and like people that is not doing what they're supposed to do at work, and you gotta do other things to set people that don't adhere to policies and procedures. That's the that's the nitty-gritty part. But the one I love the most is is saying, hey, here's a job offer. You can be able to provide for your family.

SPEAKER_05 24:25

I was gonna say uh uh you know, give me an application, but you said smart and abled people. You you lost me as smart. So medic says he's the guy that makes us turn turn our ambulances off.

SPEAKER_10 24:43

Turn your ambulances off.

SPEAKER_05 24:44

Yeah, Mr. DDA over here, man. Yeah, I told you. I told you his laugh, his laugh is hilarious. It's a dick.

SPEAKER_00 24:53

We hire man, we so we hire a lot of criminal investigators. We hire a lot of criminal investigators, divergent units, uh, program analysis, um, IT specialists, surveillance specialists too, evidence control. Yeah, there's a lot of a lot of a lot of jobs that we hire within that spectrum. Yeah, but I see I see what he mean. My mom is saying OMG. Yeah, it gets pretty pretty intrinsic. I think when we have like a talk, mom, we'll be able, I'll be able to dissect my job. But normally when people ask what I do, I just tell them, yeah, I work for the DEA.

SPEAKER_05 25:26

I see uh Air Force shadow box on the wall behind you. Were you in the military as well?

SPEAKER_00 25:36

Yeah, I um I was maybe a few days shy of 13 years. Uh I was in the yep, the uh United States Air Force. Shout out to that air power, air expeditionary force power. It was cool. I loved it, and I wouldn't trade that for the world. It gave me discipline, it taught me a whole new world, and I couldn't dare close my eyes. I worked in the medical administration field, so I did a lot of uh I worked in clinics, I worked in hospitals, I've done medical evaluation boards as a Peblo. I was an enlisted aide for a three-star general. If you look him up, he's a lieutenant general. No, he's actual general now, but he retired. Uh, Jeffrey Harigian, amazing. Him and his wife Kathy was probably the best people that I ever worked uh with. Um I was stationed in the Middle East, spent some time in Doha, Qatar. I was in a Guam before I was stationed in uh Joint Base Port Harbor Hicko. Um had a nice little stop in Japan. It was cool. I like the TDYs out there, but uh I really love Rampstein, Germany and Frankfurt. I loved it, it's amazing. Did an uh unaccompanied tour in South Korea, just taking all the different places that I've been. I've been definitely around the world, but the places that I really want to take is uh game 6610 1120. I appreciate you for joining. Thank you. Is um I want to take my wife to New Zealand. That's one of the spots that she really wants to go to. She inspired me to want to go to it. I believe it was derived from a movie that she that you know created that uh in her head to want to go there. So I want to go to New Zealand. Another person that I stream follow, her name is Brimness92. She lives in Norway, so she's a Norwegian, told me about all the beautiful places there while she plays Fortnite. She plays Fortnite the way I play Fortnite with no builds because I can't build like a sandcastle and look up in the air trying to shoot my opponents. Like, but during her streams, after she gets the dub, she'll uh she'll tell me all the amazing places in Norway. So I gotta create a P.O. box. So as soon as I get this P.O. box, there's candies I want to, we're gonna exchange to each other. So I'm gonna send her all cool candies from like the you know, Skittles and then like the like the MMs and you know, pretty much non-perishable candies. Send that to her. She said she's gonna stream it live from Norway, and then vice versa, I'm gonna stream it here in Indianapolis, Indiana, and then we're gonna go from there. But yeah, been to a lot of places, courtesies of the the Air Force. I love the institution, it's very positive. So if there's anybody that they have any questions or concerns, and you got your kids saying, like, hey, I'm tired of him just lingering around the house, the Air Force will do something with him.

SPEAKER_00 30:44

I love that. There you go. Oh my god. Yeah, like oh, how did me and my wife meet? So when we first initially met, I was in the honor guard. So for those of you that um know about it, if you look it up, just look up like joint base honor guards, and you'll see they are immaculate. Like, I don't know if you can see that picture. If anyone's in my my uh Twitch right now, that's my wife, but I gotta I have us in like like a 3D Disney Pixar form, but uh that's an Air Force ball. But yeah, the the honor guard uniform looks it's amazing. But I was in my uh my battle dress uniform per the honor guard, so I had like clicks and stuff like that. So my wife was like, she said uh initially from the clicks, I sounded I looked intimidating because of the uniform, it's just straight BDUs. But once she heard my voice, she's like, Oh my gosh, this dude is crazy. Because I she said I was all over the place. Like, just imagine I'm 41. Imagine me and like 20. So I already have like a high octane energy, but she saw she saw the rocket of energy back then. So she was like, Yeah, you are crazy. And then um, you know what's crazy? Uh, UPN. So we end up, and I'm glad my mom mentioned this in the chat. Uh, I proposed to her, but when I proposed to her, we were stationed in San Antonio together and we were watching a Spurs game. It was the Spurs versus the Timberwolves, and it was back when like Manu Ginobili was playing, uh, Tony Parker, Tim Duncan was getting it. Uh, the Admiral, uh, David Robinson, they were getting it. They they won that game, by the way. And um, yeah, I proposed to her at a Spurs game.

SPEAKER_05 33:30

Medic says it was the laugh that sealed the deal for for the wife. Yay! So what is like you don't have to go in like PC specs or anything, but what is your current setup with um with your streaming? What all do you have? Like as far as your monitors, headset, mouse keyboard.

SPEAKER_00 33:52

Okay, so when I okay, um, so when I first started, only thing I had I had uh one work monitor when I first started playing. So I had one work monitor. Uh courtesy is my wife, she is like the matriarch, she really has been helping me uh get all everything functioned. Um uh we end up acquiring a microphone. We got the microphone. If I didn't have these lights right here, only thing you would see is my eyes and my teeth. Period bar none. So I have two cameras diagonal. I have the cameras there. Of course, we got the PC courtesy of my of my my buddy Grayson Padlow is his name, aka Smackin' Cheeks. So he hooked up my PC, got that set up, and yeah, he ended up hit me up with like the um, you know, that processor, he got uh the graphics car, the um he gave me really good advice in repart in regards to the the SSD, the hard drive, um, the power supply, even the fans. Like he really was amazing. Like he was like literally the list when it was it was amazing the way he was able to kind of walk me through the PC because being exposed to it right now, at my age, I'm like I was like a deer in the headlights. Like, what's that? Like, what's that do hickey? He's like, I told you three times. Well, let me tell you a fourth. But he was gracious with me. Uh, he took his time, he helped me out, and yeah, the rest was history. So now I have everything, but now I added an additional um camera, two more monitors, and what I'm gonna do, UPN Bullet, is I'm gonna do like a doggy cam. I don't know if y'all can see my my dog knows. I always want to give him a shout-out because he's like attached to the hip. In fact, he's where's he at?

SPEAKER_10 35:33

Nomi!

SPEAKER_00 35:35

That's him right there. Just chillaxing. But uh, yeah, I want to get a like a I want to get a doggy cam to kind of showcase him, uh, showcase myself, and yeah, just literally, literally go from there. Um, just want to build, build, grow, and uh uh connect with others. Other inspiring people that like to play video games like you and us, and meet that lurker that was me uh four three to four years ago, and I'll inspire them to actually start streaming.

SPEAKER_05 36:09

There you go, there you go. Burrito says, Man, Morris got a mic to capture his immaculate voice. Is Burrito doing it again?

unknown 36:17

Burrito!

SPEAKER_05 36:19

So we know we have Retro Wednesday. What else? What does the rest of your stream schedule normally look like for the week?

SPEAKER_00 36:26

Okay, so the rest of my my rest of my stream day is sporadic. So I try to engage more with time management. So I interact with uh the fan band, see what they're up to. Um, we watch movies, um uh TV sitcoms, one of our favorite TV sitcoms. Hopefully, I have some some lovers out here, some MASH lovers. If anybody that watched MASH to this day or has been an affiliate of MASH, please let me know who your favorite character, your favorite character is in the chat. It is we I love MASH, and I love the fact that my wife exposed me to it because initially, and it's funny, I was talking about it with my buddy Darius the Great the other day. He's like, Man, y'all, you've been watching MASH. And I was like, dude, when my mom used to watch MASH growing up, I used to equate that to the news, and the news is just boring to me, so I never really watched MAX, plus it was black and white. I was like, ugh. But now growing up, I've grown like an understanding towards MASH, and I love how they're just like just just this cohesive unit, and then they laugh, they play, they're jovial, and I don't know. I really understood it. Plus, coming from Prior Military, I'm able to kind of you know understand it more. And uh literally, once my wife exposed me to MASH, we've been bitch binge watching it, and then we have our kids watch it and they start to love it. So we've been watching MASH like literally ever since. So uh I interact with the fan bam, and then I play my dog Novix. If you see my backyard, there's like almost no grass. Because like I he but he gets me energized. So, like, if you ever need an alarm clock, just get a dog. They wake up at the exact same time. Hey, I need to go to the bathroom. Chop chop. What we doing? What we doing? It ain't my fault that you stayed up till like 2-3 in the morning. I need to go to the bathroom right now in this seven. So I love the fact that I can be able to interact with him. Um, the family. I am really, I want to grow in my faith. So I really want to um, I'm praying more, I'm getting more and spiritually sound. Um, just want to better myself as an individual and as a person. And I know that I should probably go to the person that created me. So why not? So, yep, that's what I'll be doing. If I'm not streaming or if I'm not playing, uh, I'm either working, interacting with my kiddos, playing with my dog, or uh trying to be more uh spiritually sounded. And fitness too. I don't know if my sweater gave it away, but let's just say I work out, I work out a lot.

SPEAKER_05 38:59

Uh medic says, have he seen the mash date idea?

SPEAKER_00 39:04

What's it called? I seen the mash reunion. Is that the same thing or is it different?

SPEAKER_05 39:09

I guess it says mash date night idea. So I guess it's a date night, including mash.

SPEAKER_00 39:15

I'm gonna I'm having I'm gonna put that down right now.

SPEAKER_10 39:19

He said mash date night night idea.

SPEAKER_00 39:27

Oh, I see! Okay. So it's a date night, it's like a mansion apartment, shack house. He said it's a fun zero, zero prep weight advantage. Oh, this is cool. Right now for distinct uh food options. So this is kinda like some really good choices and options you can go to to spend with your significant other. That's cool.

SPEAKER_05 39:47

Man, what if this person?

SPEAKER_00 39:49

I gotta follow you.

SPEAKER_05 39:50

That was medic. Medic said it.

SPEAKER_00 39:53

Medic, thank you! I'm saving this.

SPEAKER_05 39:56

And then she says you need to include some more zombies in your streams, streaming schedule.

SPEAKER_00 40:02

Okay. I have World War Z. Is she a fan of World War Z? So I have Left 4 Dead, but I just got World War Z.

SPEAKER_05 40:09

Ooh, I've never played that one.

SPEAKER_00 40:12

And I wanna play um uh Resident Evil. You seen that Resident Evil Requiem?

SPEAKER_05 40:18

Is that the newest one? I've seen people play it, but I haven't I haven't played none of the Resident Evil games.

SPEAKER_00 40:25

Oh, gotcha. Man, that looks the graphics is so good. Um I wanna play that game. I wanna play uh Last of Us. Um but yeah, the one I just recently downloaded was uh World War Z and Left 4 Dead. Uh I'm down I'm down to play any of those.

SPEAKER_05 40:43

She says she likes the OG zombies, I guess the Black Ops zombies. Yes, Resident Evil 9. I haven't played it yet. I need to finish Resident Evil 2, then continue after 4 says Dumpling. Uh Medic says, I wonder if he'd like God of War.

SPEAKER_00 41:02

What is yes? Absolutely. I actually have Valhalla, but I haven't streamed it yet. Um I have Valhalla, uh I have Ragnarok, um the old school games, the regular, the uh the other um God of War. I have that. I love those emotes by the way. You y'all emote like crazy. I love seeing that flying around. Um Ragnarok, uh the original, uh, like uh the other the old school ones from like PlayStation 2 that we used to play with, like Hercules, Hermes, and uh um the God of War one. Yeah, yeah. Let's just say I'm a fan.

SPEAKER_05 41:39

Yeah, I'm a fan. Burrito says, Oh man, that man Morris is epic at World War Z. I swear I couldn't get it through a nightmare difficulty without him.

SPEAKER_00 41:50

Oh yeah, yeah, burrito, man, me and Burrito had some sleepless nights playing uh uh playing Black Ops, the Black Ops version of Zombies. And for everyone that's played Black Ops and had zombies, there was this one board that had like a ship on it, and they had this old looking, tall, like scientist-looking guy, and he's always like George, and he would be like, I can see you, and I'm like, Oh, snap.

SPEAKER_05 42:13

That's Call of the Dead. That was uh the George Romero cast because it had Donny, uh Danny Treo, Robert England, Sarah Geller, and um Michael Rooker, I think.

SPEAKER_00 42:28

Yeah, they had uh uh Sarah Michelle Gillard on that one, yeah. Yeah, dude, we lost, we played, we played that a lot. We had shifts playing that playing that game because we tried to see how far we can go. So we would literally go to sleep, me and my my buddies, and then we'd wake up like, all right, we're gonna meet at 0900 hours and we're gonna play until our heart's content. And that whole day, that's all we would play. Is the is that is that call it a dead.

SPEAKER_01 42:55

Yeah, Reno's recruiting took a couple of those.

SPEAKER_05 42:57

Medic says, I bought a PlayStation specifically to play God of War, and Burrito says, Yeah, I remember that. We always unlocked the Avenge Sevenfold song hidden in there. Yep, I love that song because of the the zombie little Easter egg breakdown point in the song, like right after the guitar solo.

unknown 43:15

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 43:17

That's actually what I was playing yesterday. Was I was playing uh Black Ops 3 zombies.

SPEAKER_00 43:21

So how far did you make it?

SPEAKER_05 43:25

Uh on Kino I made it to uh 18 or 19, I think it was, and then the Rise and Drock, I was trying to do the Easter egg, and I got to like level 13, I think it was. I got three of the bows crafted. Well, starting on the third bow, and then I played Origins and because Origins is probably my all time favorite map.

SPEAKER_00 43:49

And um it looked good, but I used to get trapped in there. It's different areas you can get trapped pretty good.

SPEAKER_05 43:55

So I um I had a binder when I first started streaming on. Twitch 11 years ago. Black Ops 2 and 3 were like the main thing. And I don't do multiplayer. I sucked at multiplayer. So we did Easter eggs. We did the Easter egg hunts on the zombie maps because you know you can beat them. So I went and printed Black Ops 1, Black Ops 2, and Black Ops 3. Every zombie map, every part location, every song location, every step for the Easter eggs, and made it into a binder. And I called it my zombie binder. So what we would do is we would have one person keep the last zombie alive at the end of the round. I'm flipping through the notes trying to figure out what the next step was, and then the other two were doing whatever was needed. So I spent a many hours uh playing some Easter eggs.

SPEAKER_01 44:51

Oh my gosh, let's go.

SPEAKER_05 44:53

So what are some ground rules for your channel for the first time chatters coming in?

SPEAKER_00 45:00

You know what's crazy? I really don't I don't really have like uh ground rules because and it's crazy because like a lot of people when I go into the stream, sometimes they won't allow people to send messages like you gotta be a follower for like 10 minutes, or um that you have this huge disclaimer that people don't read. Um I normally just like kick back and when they come through the chat, Streamlabs normally filters like you know, like cursing and profanity and stuff like that. Because I don't really, I'm not really, I don't really cuss, I don't do anything like that. Ever since my my my firstborn, uh when she came into the picture back in like 2009, I wanted to be a better me for her, um, in terms of being example. So I stopped, I didn't I stopped doing all of that stuff ever since 2009. So it's just a way of life now. Uh so when people come to my channel, if streamline uh streamlined don't catch them in terms of like profanity, everything else is just pretty cool.

SPEAKER_05 45:57

Gotcha, I gotcha. So, what's a big pet peeve of yours during streams?

SPEAKER_00 46:04

Pet peeves doing okay, is it from the viewer or from me? Either or let's let's say both I would say for me it's bathroom breaks. I hate having to have to go to bathroom, like especially if I'm like mid-game. I don't know if I'm sure you ran into it before, like, especially playing zombies. So, like, you playing what's going down solo. I see you on my TikTok. Man, you the best solo, and my sister Charity. Thank you so much for following me and watching me. You all the best. We got moms in here too. Super cool. My biggest pet peeve from myself legitimately is having to go to the bathroom when I'm like heavy in it, you know? And I'm like, snap, okay, I gotta do one more round. So then we play, we'll get a dub, and then like midway after the dub, me and my friends, we all celebrating it. We hop out and like, yeah, we we got we got the dub. And then the match starts again, and I'm like, oh man, I forgot to go to the bathroom. Like, I'm like, I've been having to go to the bathroom for the last like 30-40 minutes because I keep forgetting during the mid-cenes to use a restroom. So that's my biggest pet for you for me is not knowing when to take that initiative to go to the restroom after a game is finished. Because I hate living leaving uh leaving my teammates, you know, uh stagnant or like like SOL. And we've ran into that situation before. My my friend the imposter said that's not like me. But uh yeah, that's one of my things, man. Sonny Rivera, hopefully you did great on your exam. I was praying for you, brother. I hope you got it for real, for real. Uh so yeah, I think that one is it. Fatigue when I'm tired. I almost like it's almost like I'm allergic to it. I don't like being tired, but it's a natural thing. So I love this. I love the environment, I love people. It's like, I don't know, it's like an aura. You can feel it, you know, when no one's looking at you, but you can still feel that the presence. So um, when I get tired and fatigue, it's like ah, it sucks. It sucks. So I hate having to go to the bathroom, not and not taking initiative, uh fatigue when it's when I get tired and I'm like, all right, I gotta go to bed. But then all of my gamers know if y'all friends with my buddy Darius the Great 3-0, y'all gotta follow him. He's amazing. The dude is awesome. He got some real cool games he's been playing from uh Bro Forest to like Marvel Rivals. He also is gonna be playing GTA 6, it's gonna be coming out soon, so y'all be on the lookout for him. Kills say one time for the one time, and then that one time for the one time turned out to be 30 times for the eighth time. So then you'll be like looking at the clock, like, dude, I gotta go to work tomorrow, man. It's like already 12:30, and then 1230 leads into 2:30 and going into three. I'm like, dang, I might as well call out, or just grint and grin and bear it.

SPEAKER_05 49:00

I remember them days. I have I remember them days. It's funny, you know, looking back now when we were younger, we'd be able to, you know, pull all nighters and playing video games, and then you know, going to work and working all day, going home, and then just repeating it. Like nowadays, it's like, uh yeah, it's nine o'clock. I think I'm gonna head on off for the night. Guys, it's it's past my bedtime.

unknown 49:31

Mr.

SPEAKER_00 49:32

Rhymney said, Yep, one more, one more, come on, one more time, guys. Or if you want sometimes it does leave a sour taste in my mouth if we lose. Um, I don't want to leave on a loss. Oh, but then on an optic area, if you're doing well, you almost want to see how long that streak can go. Like it's almost like like a crap table. You just want to let it ride to see how far you go.

SPEAKER_05 49:52

That's right.

SPEAKER_00 49:52

So it's like a it's a catch-22.

SPEAKER_05 49:55

Yep, and then you just you just gotta force yourself to get off. It's like, nope, can't do it. No, yeah, my guy.

SPEAKER_00 50:01

And with the dub.

SPEAKER_05 50:03

But that's when you know they're really your friends, because it's like, all right, yeah, yeah, I knew you were a punk. You didn't want to hang out with us or something like that. It's like, oh, okay, I got you. I got you. Let's go, let's run it back then.

SPEAKER_01 50:14

Guilt trip you with a plan again.

SPEAKER_05 50:16

Yep, yep. That's when you know you got tri that's when they're real friends. So when you're having a bad day, like work has just been kicking your butt all day, you know, just real life stuff's going on. What gets you to stream when you just don't wanna wanna do it?

SPEAKER_00 50:37

Um my friend that had uh the one that had I mentioned that passed away. Uh I think about him um uh inspires me. I think about where I want to be trajectory-wise. Um and I know that if I if I stream now, then this stream could be the catalyst to meeting someone new, uh tapping into someone's hearts that just wanted to have that type of involvement or that interaction with another person. You may not see me in person, but you'll see that hey, I'm talking to somebody that legitimately cares, that's also a gaming enthusiast, and um I just want to see you smile. So uh that gets me going. I feel that this is generally kind of like a purpose of mine and something that I've been doing for free. So being able to twitch, hook me, hooking us up with those dimensions, it don't hurt at all. It's um is it makes some really awesome date nights with uh me and my spouse. But aside from that, I love us. I love this. There's so many people that would touch the hearts of many people that have been playing video games to that young boy, young girl that was like seven, eight, nine years old, that was just sitting in their living rooms just chilling, and like there's nothing else that mattered because you would just use on the sticks, you was playing games from like you know, like the Sonics or the this one game I used to like playing old school, Clockwork Nights 2. A lot of people may not know those games, but I used to play like Toy Stories, those games. I still didn't beat that game. The Lion King is another game I still haven't beat, but that's another topic as well. But playing those games just puts you, it's like that nostalgia, that warm feeling. It's like a warm blanket. It's like your grandma giving you a hug. It's like Thanksgiving, it's Christmas in the morning. That's how I feel when I log on to the stream and I interact with others. Nothing else in terms of the cares, the bills, the stress. It's just gaming. And uh it's like it's flower tree, it's like breathing. Yeah, to me.

SPEAKER_05 52:40

Yeah, yeah, we all can relate to that for sure. It's just it's like you hear the whatever you game on, whether it's console, PC, whatever, but when you hear that power button kick on, everything else just goes quiet.

SPEAKER_00 52:53

Yeah, that PlayStation sound is epic. You remember you had that PlayStation sound and then we spin, and then you hear that I don't know, man.

SPEAKER_04 53:02

It's Team Xbox over here. Okay, let's let's calm it down.

SPEAKER_00 53:06

I've been there, I've been rocking with Team Xbox 360 when they had the Red Rings of Death. That was horrible. It's gotten better now, though. I don't know if you remember back when we used to have the Red Rings of Death.

SPEAKER_05 53:18

Yes, I remember the Red Rings of Death. Mr. John Wayne, welcome in, welcome in, friend. What a wholesome answer. I love this. Let's go, Mr. John Wayne. Yeah, I uh I remember the Red Rings of Death. I remember the hit because the three the the um the Master Chief one that 360 was infamous for the Red Rings of Death.

SPEAKER_00 53:41

Yeah, it was like a certain area too that it would kick in and occur.

SPEAKER_05 53:46

Yeah. Rito says, funny how you could just play a random sh play a game with a random stranger then ban friends for more than a decade. Yes. Yes. Your online friends are Yeah, I I was gonna say your online friends I've found over the years in my personal, you know, interactions is your online friends come in more than your real life friends sometimes, because it's like you're on the you're you're with them more than you are IRL friends, if that makes any sense. Because it's like you go to work, you go home, okay. I don't want to do nothing the rest of the day, but you know what? I I'm a game, and then boom, you you log into with all your friends, and then like you said, that 10 o'clock starts at 12 o'clock, at 12 o'clock starts at 2 o'clock, and then you're on there, you know, for hours and hours. That's just yeah, that's just my my my standpoint on it.

SPEAKER_00 54:37

Same. Yeah, I couldn't agree with you more. God, pivotal. Yeah, it's so true. I remember so the game and friends that we have now. Uh, for instance, I want to say a few, maybe a week or two ago, uh uh, let's see, we had the imposter uh 3.5 to which I'm hopeful that she'll be streaming too. Because she was she was a lurker, like she's currently a lurker like I was in terms of uh before I started to stream, but she has the confidence, she has the grit, the tenacity. Most first and foremost, she cares and she is funny as I'll get out. She's an amazing gamer. The imposter 35, for real for real. I gotta we gotta get you on them, get you on live, man. Uh, I will be with you and carry you and help you along with Leah 82 because that's your twin sister. She definitely knows what to do. But uh yeah, it was we had linked up in Chicago, and wow, it's nothing like having gamers like all link up and just break bread. Like my other buddy burrito, I it sucks. He you know, he didn't have a he didn't have the opportunity to go duty calls on the on the work on the work for uh work front. But uh another person, Jay Rockaflocca, another person that we end up, we actually was in the military in the service in Korea of all places. That's how we met as uh as Gabriers together. We've been gaming it out since what'd you say, Jay Rockaflocca, since like 20 like 2012? I want to say 2012. Ever since 2012, we've been like as thick as thieves gaming it out. So yeah, we all went to Chicago. Uh my spouse had went, we just had like an absolute blast. 2013, man, J. Rockaflocca, you the best, man. So when we first initially like linked up, all of the the gamer friends, I legitimately they were like laughing, and I just closed my eyes, and I'm like, dude, y'all sound just like the headsets.

SPEAKER_05 56:21

Yeah, yeah. I uh I'll bounce off of that because I've there's a group of guys that I've gamed with for years since you know, like you were saying, back in the 360 days, Modern Warfare 3, Black Ops 2, and um one of the guys he lives in Canada. Well, a couple years ago, he took two weeks off work and he's like, I'm gonna come visit all of you all. And he called it his American tour per se. And he literally spent two weeks and drove state to state and met all like 10 of us that have been gaming together for years, and we went putt putting when because I was the last stop on his trip because of just how his his traveling went about, and we were just driving down the road, and like you said, I I just started laughing, and he was like, What's so funny? I was like, dude, I can't see, but it's literally like I have the headset on. Like I I hear you, but I don't see you.

SPEAKER_01 57:19

That's exactly it. See, Mr.

SPEAKER_05 57:21

John Wayne, I'm team everything. I love Xbox, PlayStation, PC, but I'm old, so my first system was in '64. Hey, I felt that. Technically, yeah, my first system was my well, my grandma had a Super Nintendo, so that was technically my first system.

SPEAKER_00 57:38

Oh, okay. Yeah, because my my first game, courtesy to my mom. Thank you so much, mom. You're still in the chat. I love you for this. She gave me a Sega Genesis. So I made like I was a pretty substantially uh adequate kid in terms of like uh you know academic prowesses. So I ended up getting I got like the honor of for like maybe the second or third time, like back to back. And she gifted me with a Sega Genesis, and then the first game that it had in this huge box was um, I remember it was like super huge. It had the Sega Genesis, it was like all black, and then it had uh a 16-bit. I was like, oh, what's that? It was uh had Sonic on there, and oh my gosh, oh my mom. Ah, you flattered me so I love you so much, mom. I'll see you. Glory, glory to glory. Y'all give a shout out to my mom, and she's in the stream. I appreciate y'all, but uh yeah, that was the first game she gave me, and I love that to my heart's content. Like I played Sonic the first one day and night. I played that so very so much. And then uh my cousin, so my cousin, he had uh uh he had a Nintendo. So he had the Nintendo, he had these uh the first Super Mario Brothers, he had Super Mario 3, he had uh remember Duck Hunt with the the gun? Yep, he had Duck Hunt with the gun, he had it was like this Olympic one where he had the those track pads where you can just like run. He had that one, he had like uh the power glove. Like my cousin had the works with the Nintendo, so he had the Nintendo, then he later on ended up getting the Super Nintendo. I had the Genesis, and then we ended up getting like the Sega Dreamcast, the Sega Saturn. Um we blew we broke our PlayStation. My mom can attest to this.

SPEAKER_01 59:18

We broke our PlayStation the first day we got it.

SPEAKER_00 59:22

I um sibling legitimately UPM bullet, it was sibling rivalry. So we got the PlayStation when they had the um uh Tekken 2. Remember Tekken 2? I remember them, yep. Yeah, we had uh we had Tekken 2, and then you know, my favorite character is Paul Phoenix. So I would like I would research different moves and stuff. So we didn't really have like the internet or like computers and stuff at our crib. So like we go to the library, you go to the library, give me that library card, you know, detonate some time, and then I go to like gamefacts.com, game winners.com, uh tipsandtricks.com, and then I just go on and just find out all different movesets, and you can see like 10 hit combos and everything else under the sun. So I'm playing my brothers, and then they get crispy creamed, and yeah, they just start fighting over who's gonna play next. And then next thing you know, one person yanks the controller, and then uh the PlayStation was sitting on our our our dresser, our dresser drawer, and then the PlayStation went down and just kind of went to put my mom was upset.

SPEAKER_05 1:00:22

I um let's see, I don't recall breaking any consoles, but my wall has met a many of controllers and my phone.

SPEAKER_03 1:00:37

SPEAKER_07 1:01:36

I will. I still will.

SPEAKER_05 1:01:38

And medic says team Sonic, shout out mom.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:42

Yeah, yeah. Oh my gosh, he came through in the clutch. Ever since then, Sonic has been to still to this day my favorite character. It's Sonic and uh Spawn. Michael J. White, he crushed in that movie. So good.

SPEAKER_05 1:01:55

And that's why we have a Sonic chilling on stream right now, and Knuckles sitting on top of your name on the overlay scene. So don't forget Spyro, says medic. Oh the dragon. Yeah, we love Spyro.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:11

Oh, I for I can't forget about Spyro. Spyro was fun. I know, okay. Ask Medic if you remember uh Crash Bandicoot. I used to play Crash Bandicoot like crazy. Oh, my mom posted in the chat. She said he would beat everybody in the house and talk trash to him. Mom was so delicate.

SPEAKER_05 1:02:28

Um medic says vaguely, but Spyro, I play to this day. It's a lot more interesting when I was younger. They're easily entertained.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:35

Yeah. Oh, yeah, Jake and Jake and Dexter too. Yep. That Jake and Dexter came out around uh Banjo Kazooie. That came out around the same time. Battletoads was the beast. Love Battletoads. Contra as well. I still I never beat that game, but I loved it. Contra for the Nintendo. And then it came out in the Super NES. Oh, and Punch Out. You P you played uh Punch Out? I have not. Oh man. Oh my gosh, Punch Out was cool. But then and um I just I never beat that game too. If you want to see somebody rage, uh click on like Punch Out, Rage, because you get to fight Mike Tyson at the end, everybody get crushed. You fight Iron Mike Tyson, it's a it's a rap. Yep.

SPEAKER_05 1:03:17

OMG Banjo Kazooie, that's a lost gem right there, says Mr. John Wayne. Mm-hmm. Ever since you've started streaming, is there anything that you regret not taking advantage of?

SPEAKER_00 1:03:32

Um, I regret not taking advantage of this sooner. I think I was legitimately in my own way. And it I love the encouragement that I received from uh my brother, first and foremost, Jeremy. Uh let's just say he almost prophesied this, this moment, because he would tell me, like, dude, bro, you got this, man. You should do it. You should have been doing this yesterday. Uh, but he used to tell me about how I could be able to do well playing these games because he was like, dude, you love video games anyway. Like, I don't think I've met anybody that love video games as much as you do. So I give it up to my brother Jeremy. I definitely should have started streaming sooner. My again, I I I won't say I love to bring it up, but it's uh the my my my best friend, the one I had passed last year. I think about him. Um, so I just I wish I wouldn't have I would have said I wouldn't have studied my way, and that's the only my only regret is I wish I would have done it sooner.

SPEAKER_05 1:04:34

Yeah, and then we would have been able to meet you sooner and been able to get a lot more laughs. If you could collab with any streamer, whether it be a big streamer or a small streamer, who would it be? Or you can answer for both. Okay. Um you me. Oh man.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:59

Yeah. I would love to collab with you. You say you haven't played Marvel Rivals, that would be a good a good uh link up. There's this one game that I'm uh another game that I just started playing. It's called Mars Mar Marvel Cosmic Invasion. So do you like Strees of Rage and like uh Fatal Fury?

SPEAKER_05 1:05:17

Uh I can't can't say that I've ever played those games.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:23

But do you like uh I guess like beat-em-ups, like game beat-em-ups?

SPEAKER_05 1:05:27

Sure. I mean I'm down to play anything. I mean, I'm down to play anything.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:31

Oh my gosh. So if you like Marvel, then you will love this beat-em-up. It's called uh Marvel Cosmic Invasion. Up to four people can play it. Within the four people, you can have two players and it's cross platform. So you can play on the PC, the PlayStation, uh, the Xbox. It's it's a really good game. It's not too hard, and uh yeah, you get to uh it it's it it has that feel, it has that Turtles Lost in Time type of feel. It has that. I don't know if anybody played Pyro. Rangers with the uh the Genesis when that came out, it kind of has that feel, but like a fatal fury streets of age vibe.

SPEAKER_05 1:06:07

Gotcha, gotcha. Anyone else or just me?

SPEAKER_00 1:06:16

You um okay, you said celebrity, a big one. So a big uh one that I've seen is uh I show speed. This dude is funny. I show speed is hilarious. Um shout out to I Show Speed when it had came during the uh the World Rumble uh uh last year, because man, he took a nasty speed.

SPEAKER_05 1:06:35

Yeah, I thought he got split in half. You saw that by Braun Breaker? Yep. Yep. I don't crane a lot watching that that stuff for that one. I was just like, oh, that hurt.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:51

Oh my gosh, you p and tell me why I took the with um my wife, we took the kids there and we watched it live. It is so bad, bro. It was so bad. And then they they kept playing it like at least like eight to ten times on the Titan Tron lot, like I guess maybe they cued the commercial, but why they were cued to commercial. I see Mother Mom Stephanie Flaming uh Fleming26. Thank you so much for joining on the TikTok. I love you, and thank you so much for joining for real from the bottom of my heart. I really appreciate you. I know you had a busy day, but thank you for joining. Um, yeah, like he got crushed. And then um, I actually got this uh where am I at? One point, this little wrestling belt from um from the Royal Rumble that uh we attend. Uh courtesies of my wife, man. I love her. She uh she went above my above and beyond. She knew that I was a wrestling enthusiast, so she even booked me tickets so we can go in San Antonio when John Cena was doing his thing back in uh the WWF days before they changed it to WWE. But yeah, that was that's fun. So I to speed, I would love to do a collab with him. Um another friend that I that uh we've been playing, we've known each other since like 2003-04. His name's uh Mulitious. I believe his gamer tag is Molitious. I can find it. I can find it. It's malicious. He's a faith-based, faith-based gamer, and he deals in the field of apologetics. So he literally talks about uh word for word in terms of the Bible. Like I think the last time I was watching his stream, he was talking about uh Simon, uh Peter. And what resonated with me is that I believe that uh Simon had lost a child, and uh his wife had lost a child via miscarriage while he was with Jesus. So he was he was touching on that. That touched my heart when he was speaking about that because I all I too have suffered a loss in terms of miscarriage, both me and my wife. Um so yeah. Um I won't dive too much into that because I feel like I'm starting to feel tears coming on. But um I love the fact that he's that he streams and he talks about that and he champions um his uh spiritual beliefs. So, and he's scary good at gaming. Like his real name is Ian. Uh my buddy Darius the Great, he knows he knows of them. We all live in the same code de sac back when I stayed in Colorado before I ended up later on joining the military. But dude is a savant for gaming. So the three I definitely want to stream with that I haven't streamed with yet would definitely be UPN Bullet. If I can get you on Marvel Cosmic Invasion, uh if I ever get big enough to be notarized by Ice Your Speed, and so I can talk about that spear he took in Indianapolis when he was at the Royal Rumble, it'd be him and then my buddy uh Ian, uhkha uh malicious, I believe that's his name. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 1:09:52

Right. And uh medic says she supports that decision of us collabing. Uh Mr. John Way says Riz seems like an amazing entertaining. I agree to have with his brother. Uh man Bullet, you have to play them games, just don't break a controller. What would you say has been one of your favorite memories from streaming?

SPEAKER_00 1:10:18

Uh everybody in this chat right now. Everybody in this chat. I want to pay homage to everyone that's currently in the chat. Um, I see Am Bam. I see my sis uh uh A Ford. Oh my gosh, little twitchy, she's in here. I see uh my mom.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:34

Glory to glory to glory to glory to glory to glory to God.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:42

Everybody knows Fred Hammond, that is a song. Uh my mom, uh, she definitely keeps me spiritually grounded. I got my brother uh Golden AF100. He's watched me so many times when we would play like uh we play fighting games together. Golden, I know you remember Dragon Ball Z Boudicat 3. We had epic games on there. Uh, we had epic games on Marvel vs. Capcom 2. We had epic games on, and this is for um my buddy, my my brother Golden and for my sister uh A Ford, uh Mario Party. Oh, hands down for the N64. Used to love them games. So, what I love about streaming is them. I was super nervous. I felt like I was gonna throw up from the flow up, but y'all are making it so warm and welcoming. Thank you, mom, for your prayers. It really, it really it's working. I feel it. Um, Mr. Rhyme in 82, Beast Mode, Chriss Cross. I'm so glad she joined the chat. You couldn't have joined at a better time. My favorite, my favorite neighborhood lurker is Mr. Zeto. Don't know who he is or where he's from, but he always pops up in my chat. Thank you so much, Mr. Zetto. You the real MVP.

SPEAKER_07 1:11:48

It's Helen, the Imposter 35.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:51

Thank you so much. U PM Bullet, naturally, and uh Untouchable. And then, of course, my wife, my lovely wife, she's in here as well. We got J Rock of Flocca Lee 82. She's one of the reasons why I end up joining streaming, and uh, there's the great. There is the great. Yeah, um, I love this. Uh, I love this portion of streaming. I I really, really do being able to uh uh just talk, interact with people. Um, it's a rhyme to say, let's go. Samara Party was cold. Yeah, it was Ninja Fox. And uh my buddy uh or my brother uh Golden, you remembers, and yeah, I love it.

SPEAKER_10 1:12:27

I love it.

SPEAKER_05 1:12:31

Uh did you or do you have a role model when it comes to streaming?

SPEAKER_00 1:12:40

I don't know if I necessarily do like have a role model. Because when I okay, so when I first joined, it was just really just me wanting to uh kind of feel kind of feel my way, trying to see for one if I'm even gonna be able to muster uh the schedule, the um the dedication, um to and then survive just the fortitude of streaming, playing, and you're talking to nobody, or like streaming, playing, you're interacting with other uh people that are like playing the same video game as you, and then you hear them in a voice chat and they're saying a whole bunch of negative stuff. So then it almost it almost wants you almost want to regress or um find a comfort zone or just log off. But I I've come to find out that I just have to just keep going, keep striving, and uh just continuing to uh to persevere. Um so yeah.

SPEAKER_07 1:13:41

So yeah, I see Mr.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:43

John Wayne plays a Mario Party, dead up to go. Oh, and 007. Man, y'all know you remember our job on 007. That dude was like half the size we used to play, and that golden gun that won hit a quitter. I used to do Slapsoni. That crap was so funny. I to this day I still I would rather melee somebody than to shoot them. It's not more demoralizing because you had so many chances to stop me, but for some way I was able to knife you while you had an AK. Horrible. It's a horrible way to go.

SPEAKER_05 1:14:12

Uh what would you say has been the best positive impact streaming has given you?

SPEAKER_00 1:14:18

Um same. I'll just have to say the same thing, the interaction. The interaction, the life, lifelong friendships. Um I really do uh uh I love to get the the recommendations from other streamers. So like if you're interested in a game and you see somebody else is currently playing it, dive right in. You can be able to get like a firsthand kind of purview on what to expect uh prior to purchase. It's almost like a try before you buy, but then they try and you look, and you're like, you know what, I can see myself playing a game, and then you'll mess around and ended up doing it as well. So um I love that portion of gaming.

SPEAKER_05 1:14:54

Yeah, yeah, that's how I got hooked in. That's how they hooked me into Fortnite. I like watched so many people play, and I was like, Man, I swear I'm never gonna play this game. And then um there's some people in chat that won't be named, but they knew who they are, and they were like, Yeah, just just you should play it. I'm like, No, I'm not gonna play it. So I was like, All right, you know what? Fine, I'll play it. And then I just like uh, you know, all right, I I get it. Okay, but I'm like you, I don't do the builds. Like, I can't like it blows my mind somebody getting shot one time and making like a 17-story mansion, like and the snap of their fingers, and I'm just like uh okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:15:31

I'm telling you, Mr. Raman, zero builds. So both me, you, and uh you pee and bullet and Mr. Raman is the same way, zero builds. Cause like, okay, so my kids is scary good. Bills, no bills, it don't matter. They would just destroy at uh at Fortnite. So, like, I remember playing with them one day, and I was like, I can't play this guy with y'all. So, like CT64, Lunar Eclipse, Misty 912, y'all know who y'all are. Y'all are scary good at Fortnite. I love y'all, and I appreciate the fact that I can see the gaming lineage being passed on because uh when I tell you UPN, I got crushed, I got demoralized, and I was like, guys, y'all gotta turn the alpha tower off. Like, I can't I can't just be looking all the way up in the air, waiting for y'all to come down. Like, right, I can't build like that. I'm not that, I'm not that, I'm not that astute. I'm just using I'm used to aiming down the site, and I'll shoot you from like the same level, or oh, you're on the second floor, gotcha. Wow, you're on the 97th floor? All right, I'm gonna wait. Like, yeah, I can't shoot you all the way up the floor.

SPEAKER_05 1:16:33

You gotta come down sometime. You get hungry at some point, right? Do you have a special catchphrase or something special to you do with your chat?

SPEAKER_01 1:16:44

Every time I walk in, I always randomly say, God, that's for a dollar. And then I just walk off and then I just log up.

SPEAKER_00 1:16:54

I honestly I really don't. I really don't. I know somebody told me in my chat, I was like, dude, you gotta get your lap patented because somebody will try to steal it. So get your laugh patented. So I don't know how that can be done or arranged, but I gotta get my laugh trademarked. So I may have to talk to some people, maybe a lawyer or something. I want nobody to steal it.

SPEAKER_05 1:17:14

Well, I mean, I did say that from the very get-go. If people did not know who you were, the laugh is what is gonna seal the deal because it's a very iconic laugh for sure.

SPEAKER_00 1:17:26

My brother, my brother, and the we used to play uh Street Fighter together. We played a Street Fighter uh championship with this, and uh, I'd always play as uh either Ken or Zangif. Zangif is like one of my favorite players. I love that power driver is just disgusting. But uh every time I if I would win, he's like, dude, your laugh haunts me in my dreams.

SPEAKER_10 1:17:50

Man, why?

SPEAKER_00 1:17:53

It's like you knew I wanted to win, you know I wanted to win. Oh my gosh, and then uh Mortal Kombat. Oh, we had some epic games playing Mortal Kombat. Uh, let's just say uh there was a long time where I couldn't bring Mortal Kombat into my household because my mom had a nice hammer and she went to town on that Mortal Kombat that I borrowed from a friend. I had to avoid him for months on end. And then one day he saw me at the gym. I'm like shooting basketballs, and he's like, dude, Chris, did I let you borrow my Mortal Kombat? And I was like, Did you?

SPEAKER_05 1:18:27

Hey, you walked in the house of that game. You walked in there, and your mama was like, get over here.

SPEAKER_01 1:18:34

She legitimately flew the scorpion.

SPEAKER_00 1:18:39

Normally I was I was a little bit more cunning than that, but I had to be quicker than that. She saw it right in the console. I normally just take it out or I'll swap it out, but I must have been playing real late night and then woke up and next thing you know, she saw it, and it was all she wrote. It was all she wrote.

SPEAKER_05 1:18:56

Did you ever complain to your friend about what happened to it?

SPEAKER_00 1:19:01

To this day. Oh my gosh, if you see the stream, oh my gosh, dude. Yeah, I I held that in like a play. Yeah, I held dude. I held that in so bad, man.

SPEAKER_05 1:19:11

Somebody send this, uh yeah, somebody send this podcast to him so he can figure out what happened to his Mortal Kombat game.

SPEAKER_00 1:19:19

I was like, man, fair, fair alert, man. It was Amnesty Hour, hopefully, but knowing those games, I'm hoping it doesn't appreciate. You know how Zelda appreciates, because like, oh my gosh, it's like so much money now. I'm hoping Mortal Kombat 3 doesn't appreciate like that.

SPEAKER_05 1:19:33

Oh man, you were talking about Def Jams um earlier. I was, you know, I'm I I collect consoles. That's kind of my one of my side hobbies, and I was just looking up games because I uh when I got my PS2, I was like, you know, I'm gonna I'm gonna go down memory lane. You know, I bought some games and stuff, and and Def Jams came up. Yeah, you know, complete inbox with the manual, that game goes for like 300 plus dollars.

SPEAKER_03 1:20:01

Are you serious? Yes, I'm like that that game is like 20 years old. How is it so much money?

SPEAKER_05 1:20:09

Yeah, a lot of them order retro games like Mario games for the 64 are still going, you know, 70, 80 dollars.

SPEAKER_00 1:20:19

Yeah, the music was really good because that was the first interactive 3D. Uh yeah, I remember playing Mario 64. Dang, that's a lot of money. Wow, you don't make me want to do the same thing.

SPEAKER_05 1:20:33

Oh, I have uh 18, 18 or 19 consoles. Because my my goal is once I get uh my my gaming room per se set up, I'm gonna have a display behind me. I'm gonna have my a frame built for my OG 151 Pokemon cards, which I just completed today, my Gengar came in, so I'm good on that. And then I'm gonna have a like little cabinet per se built, and I'm gonna display all of the consoles and put like LEDs behind them and everything.

SPEAKER_01 1:21:05

So that's gonna look legit.

SPEAKER_05 1:21:09

Uh let's see. John Wayne says if you don't know what Gex 2 is for the PS1, you should play it. What's it called? Jex 2? GEX2 GEX2 for PlayStation 1. And Burrito says, I'm looking for an N64 to play Donkey Kong 64 and Mario 64.

SPEAKER_00 1:21:31

Oh, let's go.

SPEAKER_05 1:21:33

The money right there, some money right there. That's all I got to say.

SPEAKER_10 1:21:41

Oh, I've I've seen that before. I've seen this game.

SPEAKER_00 1:21:44

I was like, why does it sound so familiar? Like I got like a Gecko?

SPEAKER_05 1:21:50

Maybe so?

SPEAKER_00 1:21:51

Yeah, let me know if it is. Yeah, because if it is, I I've seen that game before, uh Jex 2. I'll play it though.

SPEAKER_05 1:21:58

What would you say has been your biggest accomplishment during your streaming career?

SPEAKER_00 1:22:05

Um let's see. Biggest gaming well, streaming accomplishments. Wow, you know what? I can't even say that it was an accomplishment on my part because honestly, you PM Bullet, you have uh you've enriched my life greatly. Greatly. So I don't even know if you remember, but it was like you had came in my chat and this is before my grandma had passed away, but she was on um she was on hospice care. She was uh gosh, she yeah, she was on uh she was on hospice care and uh you had um it was like a like like a day or two after that when I found out Did you join my stream? Did you join my stream and like dude like you just start raiding me with like uh subscriptions? Like those subscriptions, it it I couldn't count. I couldn't count how many dang it man!

SPEAKER_01 1:23:08

Dang it. You start raiding me with subscriptions, brother. And like that was that was like that was that was that was awesome.

SPEAKER_00 1:23:22

So that I I I don't even know if I can say that. That was my highlight. I felt like I feel like you came at the I feel like you came at the per the perfect time, like legitimately the perfect time, because God knows I needed that because uh uh with my friend uh passing last year and how bad it hurt it. Um it was hard for me to think about death and to see death again. And um shouts out to my grandma uh I know she's resting in heaven, uh grandma's hands, she uh like every month when I was stationed in Korea, she was sending me she was send me she was sending me letters.

SPEAKER_10 1:24:14

Dang it.

SPEAKER_00 1:24:16

Uh okay, I'm gonna get through this because it's gonna help you process it. But every month in Korea she she would send me she would send me letters. And we Jerock knows, man, Korea could be a very thankless place. Thankless place. There's the times in like a lot of the locals we would have to utilize, we couldn't go through the main gate because they throw in stuff and they're like, man, what y'all doing, Americans? What y'all doing on our property? Get out of here. I'm like, dude, if we leave, the North Koreans is gonna be knocking. So it's advantageous for you to treat us with a little bit more hospitality. Majority of the citizens is cool, but you know, it's always those bad apples that stick out. We had threats, we had like um it was times I couldn't tell my wife and tell her because I wouldn't want her to stress out. She's already up stressing out as it is because my kids are younger. They're like really younger at that age.

SPEAKER_01 1:25:18

So the time zone differences. So what grandma says she wouldn't send me like these real thoughtful letters. She'd give me like like biblical proverbs, tell me to keep my spirits up.

SPEAKER_00 1:25:37

Uh my gosh. All right, did not think I was gonna cry, but it is what it is. I love you, grandma sins. I still miss you to this day. And and yeah, so she was sending these letters and it used to mean so much to me, man. Like it meant so much to me. And every time we're around, it's just like super cool, super copesthetic, because like my biological grandma, she died the year I was born. So I wish I had the opportunity to meet her, but you know, I guess she met me before she had passed. So uh my sister Charity, her name is because of my grandma. So one day I'll meet you, uh, Grandma Charity. I will meet you one of these days. But you left an amazing, beautiful woman by the name of Sandra Ford that I'm very lucky and blessed to have, which is my mother. So I love you, mom. I don't even know where I'm going with this, and I don't even know what the question was because I'm like lost in the whole shuffle. But I love this. I love the joy and I love the pain and having to process it and in a positive way because a lot of people, when you're dealing with death and you're dealing with circumstances like that, you'll lash out, or you'll you'll you know, you'll do something you'll regret, or you'll take to the bottle, or get to a fight. I play video games, I pray, I work out, I interact with the people uh that are here within my sphere, you know. Uh my lovely wife, she's getting she's got me through it, she's getting me through it. Uh my kiddos, I see the spark in her eye. And I'm like, man, thank you, Lord. You know, like you took you got an angel, you got an angel up there, you got a good one. And um, but you know, I was gracious enough to have uh my wife, my kiddos, and this little guy, oh my gosh, no he's asleep. Nobody. It's hard though. He probably used to me crying. But I have my dog, which couldn't have come at a better time. Like, dogs is amazing, people, for real, for real. Like, I'll be like in myself, and like he'll be in his crate, and if I'm like soaking, it's like he'll feel it. And then next thing you know, he's like right on my lap and he's just he won't say anything, he won't do anything, he'll just have his little little schnaj there, and he'll just just lay it on my lap and just like dude, I got you.

SPEAKER_05 1:28:10

So uh my gosh, man.

SPEAKER_00 1:28:14

So I love my dog. That's why I want to get a little doggy cam. And man, he's my highlight, he's my biggest highlight. He reminds me of um, remember Alpha from that uh Disney Pixar movie up? Oh yeah, and he had like that uh voice changer like that's colour. Yeah, he reminds me of that. Oh my gosh, Mr. Ryan, you ain't lying, man. Man's man's best friend. Uh my mom just said, uh, I love you too. The transparency is what makes you so amazing. Oh my gosh, mom. Thank you so much. But that this was like one of my biggest fears. But I broke that that night when you had came through. Oh, now I remember the question. You said what was my biggest highlight, and that it wasn't me, it was you. You I had all this stuff going on in my life, and you came to my stream and you flooded me with subscribers. There's so many, so much love and support. I just broke it, I broke down and I cried. Literally, just thank God missed stream, and I just had to let it ride because I was holding it in for so long, and then after like the seventh to eighth subscriber, I'm like, y'all don't know me from Adam. But the fact that y'all are taking the time out of y'all day to be here in this place and this space and rocking with me, it broke me. So, from the bottom of my heart, you pin bullet. If we ever meet, I will give you an emphatic hug and I tell you thank you. And I appreciate you. And just this, I really appreciate you, this, and all the people that's watching uh right now. I'm not really a crier as much, and uh it's it's a it's a a very a nuance for me to be uh so uh emotionally driven, but uh if you grandma saying it's like I I I miss her, I miss her dearly. So um, but yeah, that's that was pretty much my highlight, and it was because of you. It really was because of you.

SPEAKER_05 1:30:01

Well, I I appreciate that, friend. I mean you you're you're too much of a light to not be shown off, you know. Like I said, you're always in such a positive mood. You always got a smile on your face, and if if I can just bring you put your platform out there just for one new person to see, then it's worth it, you know. That's what we're all about. We're all about supporting each other, helping each other grow, you know. Yeah, I I really don't know the words to say because I I didn't really look see it from that perspective. You know, I looked at it as, hey, you know, my friend's on right now, you guys don't know who he is, so let's go introduce him so y'all can know another amazing streamer. But now knowing that, like I still have because I remember you reached out to me, like you sent me an email, and I was actually going through my email cleaning out my box inbox the other day, and I I came across it and I was like, Yeah, I'm not deleting that. Because to me, like that meant a lot to me that you would reach out, you know, off stream to say, tell me how much it meant to you. So for sure, definitely you know, you don't have to thank me. Like, like I said, that's what I'm here for is to help others grow and use my platform to get light on them. And you're too too lit up to not be shown off.

SPEAKER_01 1:31:22

How did you find me by the way?

SPEAKER_05 1:31:24

Oh I believe I was just doom scrolling. I do a lot of doom scrolling on TikTok and Twitch, and I don't remember what I think you just came up on like a for you page on TikTok one day. Uh where I th I believe you're just playing Marvel and just just your your energy, and I was just like, you know, this this guy could be something, and I followed you right then, and I waited till you went live the next day, and I popped in, we started chatting, and to tell you how to to put in perspective for everybody that doesn't know Moores or hasn't had the opportunity to catch one of his streams, the the energy that I tell you all, and the light that this guy gives off, the wife came into the bedroom, and within three minutes, she was like, Who are you watching? Because they sound so happy. And I showed her, and she logged into her twitch on her phone and followed him as well. And like she just said, like she just said right there in chat, ray of sunshine. Because that's what you are, you are a ray of sunshine. And if you're ever having a bad day, just pull up a more stream. I guarantee your bad day is gonna be flipped around. I promise you that.

SPEAKER_00 1:32:41

My dog even broke my mom. Uh my mom was nervous about him initially, but like she's like, I love him now.

SPEAKER_07 1:32:48

I'm like, I know right now.

SPEAKER_05 1:32:51

I can't wait to catch his next stream, says Mr. John Wayne. And medic says the laugh is contagious. You can't be mad or sad listening to it. Exactly. Exactly. What is one thing you wish you could add to your setup to make it feel more complete?

SPEAKER_00 1:33:08

Literally, my dog. Yeah. I'm gonna add like legitimately, I want to add like a dog cam. I don't know where I'm gonna put it or within the area. I'll find a way, knowing me, because as you can see, I remember you had sent a message. You was like, Yeah, I want to make my make it too saturated, but like if you can see my stuff is just like full of stuff. I'm full of, and that's only because of I'm so used to so many people. So I'm the oldest out of like my mom has like we got like six children. Uh mom has six. I'm the oldest out of the six. And then when she remarried, um uh he had uh my stepdad, uh which I consider as my dad because he's been I've been knowing him since like single digits, but he had five kids of his own. So like it's it's a lot of us. I used to always consider ourselves as the black brady bunch because it's just that many people. So I'm used to having like I guess a lot of a lot of exchanges, but normally I kind of like play the background. So streaming right now is just so different for me because I'm used to just observing. Like innately, I'm uh an introvert, but literally, honestly, if it wasn't for the military and like legitimately, my mom, I used to like have to sing in a choir. Remember, mom? I was the uh uh she used to call us, it was a three, it was a trio before the five heartbeats. Well, after the five heartbeats and after the baby girl, I'm losing you, the temptations, it was the shepherd boys. We used to sing, we used to sing uh, who is the kings of glory?

SPEAKER_02 1:34:45

The Lord got strong and mighty.

SPEAKER_00 1:34:48

I used to sing all of that stuff, we used to get it, but yeah, that brought me out of my shell. But if it wasn't for my mom and it wasn't for the military, I'd be, I don't know, just kind of sitting down, just trimming my thumbs, twiddling my thumbs, and out to my own devices. But yeah. The black brady bunch of.

SPEAKER_05 1:35:04

Shout out to mom. Mama Morris, shout out to you.

SPEAKER_00 1:35:08

Leah says she's the Mexican Brady Bunch. Leah, you you had, yeah, your mom did have a y'all had a lot of siblings too. You're like the youngest. Yeah, Leah's a twin. She had uh she had a she had a couple of siblings too.

SPEAKER_05 1:35:19

I bet Christmas time was flown around your your your house.

SPEAKER_00 1:35:23

Yeah. Oh my gosh. Christmas felt like Thanksgiving. They used to we okay, we never had leftovers. That's one. Um the bathroom was was almost always utilized.

SPEAKER_01 1:35:38

It was like almost all way all too too utilized. So yeah, um uh let's see. But yeah, Christmas is really good.

SPEAKER_00 1:35:49

The food was immaculate. The food was immaculate. Like we used to have food combas. But yeah, I used to love it. And then we'd all just sit around and we'd be we'll play like Mario Party. Like that was like the the game. Like we would legit like all sit around to sit around and play Mario Party.

SPEAKER_05 1:36:08

Yeah, not like in my house. My my house was we opened up presents and then everybody dispersed amongst themselves to play with their gifts, and we didn't come back together until it was time to eat.

SPEAKER_01 1:36:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 1:36:22

So what would you say what do you think is your biggest strength when it comes to streaming?

SPEAKER_10 1:36:31

Um my biggest strength.

SPEAKER_00 1:36:36

Uh I don't know if I've if I f if I've looked at it from like a strength or weakness standpoint, I just if my strength is just it's showing people authentically who I am, then I would say that that's it. I don't have like uh I guess like a unbridled filter. Uh I'm just uh pretty much a a dad that loves to play video games and um just striving for his family, and that is courageously trying to go and do something that he will be doing for free. But I want to create, I love that um a friend of mine, Empress Linus 91, she said one time that she wants to create a legacy for her son. That is exactly what I want to innovate. I want to emulate is I want to create a legacy for my family, but I want to do something that I enjoy. And gaming is something that uh it's it's very easy to me. I love it a lot, and uh I'll be doing it for free. It just so happens that courtesies of uh of Twitch, they you know they compensate you, but then I end up giving away with subscriptions, so like you know, you see those random like hype trains and stuff. I'm like, oh, I know you subscribe. And then one day my my uh my wife hit me up. She was like, How many people have you subscribed to? And I'm like, oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_03 1:37:57

Uh well, the wife's done found out. Sorry guys, I gotta go.

SPEAKER_00 1:38:04

Like, I don't even know where to find that out at. I was like, I'm gonna have to I'm gonna have to google that. Like, how do you find out how many people you to subscribe to? Because like I'll I'll love their energy, and then they would get me going, and then I'll like here, I'll send a bit there. Then you know, like, you know what? I'm going for the real deal. Holy feel, subscribe, enter. But yeah, so I'm I'm pretty confident the money that I'm getting monthly, I'm just dishing it right back out to subscribers by subscribing to people.

SPEAKER_05 1:38:36

Yeah, I'm kind of the same way on that aspect where you know I don't care for the biddies or the subscriptions or anything. Kind of like you, like I'm just I'm just here to give entertainment to people and meet new folks and you know help support others and anything that I do get, yes, it's very appreciative and I'm very thankful for it. But at the end of the day, when it comes time to get in that payout at the end of the month, I just turn right rack around and and give it back to the community.

SPEAKER_00 1:39:00

So But you are so amazing at what you do, like you really don't know the lives that you affect and you touch in others, it's just it's paramount. That's one of the reasons why I had to see you that uh that email. I was like, man, I just gotta let them know like it just how much I appreciate that because you came at the perfect time. Like no one knew that I was I'm I was going through the grieving process of a of a friend, or no one knew I was going through the intimate grieving process of a grandma that later on passed away a few days afterwards. But you came through and you man, you blessed me tremendously. So I hope you receive a quadruple portion of a blessing that you give to others by allowing us to be on your platform. So uh first and foremost, before I even forget, I want to thank you for that. For real, for real.

SPEAKER_05 1:39:47

It's no need to thank me, friend. I'm just I'm here for you all. Do you have any other hobbies besides streaming or video games?

SPEAKER_00 1:39:56

All right, uh Anya, I know you'll be able to help me out. That's my wife, but um other hobbies, uh uh I dang, I am like really, I really like working out. When I say I like it, like I like challenging myself from doing different movements. I'm starting to look at anatomy and physiology, and I'm looking like, all right, where can I where can I build my scapula? Or like, oh man, this trapezoid. Let me see what's the most effective movement that I could be able to negotiate to render this muscle fiber to get better. Like, how do I shock the body? I don't want it, I only want to be familiarized with with push-ups. I want to do inclines or let me do declines or let me add weights to it, or let me get a weight vest. So I um I'm not I'm not saying I'm a fitness fanatic, but I like challenges. So if I do something one day, the next two or three days after recovery, doing something else. So I have my headphones on equivocal to this, and I play music and I just zone out. Like movement sometimes when my dog is here, like she'll he'll come through and then like we'll interact. Because um, so my wife and I, we made a uh we have a garage gym. So it happened courtesies of like COVID. So when COVID hit, you couldn't really go anywhere. Like all the gyms and stuff was closed. When people's family members was dying, you couldn't even really go to the funerals, you know. Like, like, hey, go to this website, you can see it that way. So it wasn't too personal. All the toilet papers gone. I don't know why. Like it was just it was no TP for your bungalow, none of that. So, but what we did have with all this time, I legitimately was on my phone. I turned it off. My wife turned it off because we got tired of being afraid. And um, my mom talked to us, she was like, Hey, keep listening to uh recite Psalms 91, prayer of yourself, prayer of your family, and we're gonna go, we're gonna get through this together. So, from Psalms 91 to just tuning the world out, we preoccupied our time and we created like a garage, uh gaming garage in my gym. My um my friend Leah82 was saying, like, hey, you should probably do like a fitness stream too. And I'm like, she might that may not be a bad idea because I'm I'm in there. It's because it's fun, I like it. Because I used to work out when I was in the service, but now but it was through obligation, but now it's like I I like to do it. Um, and then I like to see it. I love to see when my children are become impacted by it too. Like, oh my gosh, like if you saw my daughter, the way she be killing it with her choreography, I've seen her doing her plays, Misty 912. She is beautiful. She she be slaying, like the way she's so quick with her movements, like she has scary quads.

SPEAKER_07 1:42:42

Oh my gosh. I was like, how do you get your quads to look like that?

SPEAKER_00 1:42:47

Amazing. My other, my other son, Luna Eclipse. So he um he was he wrestles, but I think he just recently got out of wrestling currently, but when during his wrestling career, like he was doing it from sixth to eighth grade, and now he's gonna be a freshman. This dude's back looked like you ever seen Bruce Lee and like uh Fist of Fury? Oh yeah, my son's back was looking like that. I was like, whoa! Where you get those at dude had like a cobra back going on, but like, man, it was it was crazy, but like he would want, he could run like the wind, lunar eclipse could run like a wind. Um, my other son, we was doing one day, we was in a garage, CT64, we was doing curls, so he had the dumbbells and this dude curled like almost like a hundred, like um a hundred repetitions. And I'm like, dude, I don't want you to pull anything. I don't want your mom to be like, what you in that garage doing? I'm like, nothing.

SPEAKER_05 1:43:43

Now you got us both in trouble.

SPEAKER_00 1:43:45

Yeah, it just wouldn't stop. I was like, put it down, kid.

SPEAKER_05 1:43:49

You're making me look bad.

SPEAKER_00 1:43:51

Put that down, you're gonna get us both in trouble. So yeah, uh fitness is definitely a highlight of mine. I love how my wife Anya had put in there. She says, Sleeping, I am scary good at sleeping, but I don't sleep from like a regular basis in a sense of like the six to eight hours. Sometimes I'll sleep like two hours, or sometimes I'll sleep maybe three hours, and but then after that, I'm I'm out and about. I be geeked though, and everybody knows when uh my friends when we play online, they're like, Ah, snap. Morrison took that nap, and I'm like, Yep, your boy that took that nap. So I be I'm like, it's go time. So we'd be crushing it in Call of Duty and Rivals with me after that, after that, that post-game, that pregame nap, on the poppin'. You might as well give me some uh some pre-workout.

SPEAKER_05 1:44:37

Yeah, the wife, she uh she gets on me all the time because you know my wife, we're like so night and day difference. Like my wife will sleep and sleep, and after you know, eight, nine hours, she's still tired when she wakes up, like I can go back to sleep. Me on the other hand, I'm like you. I I'm good with like two to three hours and I'm I'm wired. Let's go.

SPEAKER_00 1:44:57

Oh, dog walks. I totally forgot about that. Uh thank you so much, Anya. Yeah, so I then I'll I'll interact with my dog. I'll walk around him. He is literally the top of the town. Like, honestly. Oh my gosh. Everybody wanna be like, can I take that dog?

SPEAKER_05 1:45:14

So do you have uh tell him I said bring Sally what? Uh let's see, do push-ups to bring Sally up. Oh, the the the Sally Up song challenge. Have you heard about that?

SPEAKER_00 1:45:27

Oh, I gotta try I gotta try that. I've seen people do that. I've seen the challenge. Because they'll be doing push-ups and they'll do it, they'll time it, and then they'll do with one arm. Yeah. I've I've seen that challenge.

SPEAKER_05 1:45:39

Don't you do it, Cyber. We're friends. It's hard. I should try a push-up and I try a push-up and my shoulder pops out. Oof. That's an old one.

SPEAKER_00 1:45:51

I got yeah, I got a buddy that's um, he actually he has disability because of his uh his wrists. His wrists, like, I don't know, like the way he goes into a push-up position, he said it hurts like tremendously. So he just used other uh other fitness routines to kind of get him over that uh over that hump. But yeah, he can't he can't put any weight on his uh on his wrist.

SPEAKER_05 1:46:11

Do you have any pre-stream rituals for you go live? Like, do you have a drink of water or do you have a snack or anything? I saw before we came on the wife came in and asked if you had your water, and you you shook your water bottle to make sure.

SPEAKER_00 1:46:24

Yeah, oh yes. So I legitimately uh because I have a tense, well, you know how it is when you stream, you talk a lot. So I always hydrate so I don't my throat is not parched. Sometimes I sh I I sing, and both uh Mr. and Mrs. Ryman can attest to that because they be they be singing in their streams too. Amazing. Mr. Ryman is a voice of an angel. So I I drink water and then I have like a like uh it was like a lozenge. So like a cough drop. So I'll take a cough drop, uh, a lozenge, um to make sure because I smile a lot that my lips don't crack and bleed. You gotta get that uh that Carmax, that blistex. This is vital. So if one runs out, the other one will follow. So I always have that. I got the water, I got the cough drops, and before I even uh grace the stage and I unmute my mic, I pray. So, yeah, that's my ritual. Carmax for my lips, uh cough drops and water for my voice. Uh to keep me spiritually grounded, I I I I pray before I uh before I stream.

SPEAKER_05 1:47:32

Now, on the opposite hand of that, what is your afterstream windows?

SPEAKER_00 1:47:36

After stream rindows, then I just do a post-game wrap-up with my kids. I kind of do spot checks, make sure that they're okay, that they're doing good. Uh, normally my dog is like, all right, it's time to either eat or play, but he can't play right now because uh I want to say a week ago when I was interacting with him, he landed wrong with his foot and it kind of messed up his quad. But uh, we took him to the vet and they said he's gonna be fine. But um, yes, they said he's gonna have to stay off that foot, off that leg. He has yet to stay off that leg. Like he would run. I remember he used to run limping. I'm like, why are you running?

SPEAKER_05 1:48:12

That's I mean, that's typical man for you, right? You know, we're hard headed and stubborn, right? So there you go, ladies. It's not just us men in general, it's men of all statures, okay? Two and four legs.

SPEAKER_00 1:48:28

Even had neighbors looking at us like, what's going to his dog? I was like, I'm not doing it. I'm telling him to sit. But he likes something he'll get the zoomies with three legs and just zip, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like, dude, you are really stagnating your health. You're healing. It's not gonna heal well if you keep doing that. So um, but yeah, uh post-game wrap up after I stream, just check in with the kiddos, with the the missus. Um food. I normally eat because sometimes I'll be streaming for like hours on end. Uh, if I get to the point where I can't hold it in, I'll uh I'll probably be streaming and eating at the same time. Uh, but for the most part, I don't really eat until afterwards. So like between the food, the dog, uh the fan bam. Yeah, that's pretty much all I do. And then prep preparation for work the next day.

SPEAKER_05 1:49:20

I gotcha, I gotcha. Yeah, that food's definitely a uh plus for sure.

unknown 1:49:26

I like it.

SPEAKER_05 1:49:28

If there's one thing you could change about the streaming world, what would it be anyway?

SPEAKER_00 1:49:43

I don't I don't think I would to be honest, I don't think I would change anything. Because I I I like the fact that it appeals to so many different facets. So, like the what we're doing right now, how you're able to do like a podcast, talk and interview uh uh standpoint. I see a lot of that. I see a lot of different ASMR. So when people, if you like people to eat and stream, there's somebody, a couple of people that's out there. They can have like Korean dishes where you can hear them slurp up the uh romaine noodles and and eat jerk chicken and everything else. You can watch them. There's even a stream that you can watch people sleep. Like you go on Twitch, type in sleeping, and then they're like, all right, let's get some shit. And they're literally just catching Z. While I guess people just like watching people sleep. I don't know. But yeah, it appeals to Yeah. To so many, so many, so many people. You have just think of something and type it in, and you won't be you'll be surprised what you find on Twitch and the people that do it. So I mean, I guess I wouldn't I wouldn't trade, I wouldn't change anything.

SPEAKER_05 1:50:48

When people remember you years from now, what do you hope they remember the most about you?

SPEAKER_10 1:50:56

Oh my gosh. Wow.

SPEAKER_05 1:51:00

Um that was a good that dang, that's a good one.

SPEAKER_00 1:51:05

That's dog provoking. I I want them to know that he was first and foremost a man of faith because I am very glass hat full. I am like an unwavering optimist. But what keeps me going when I feel low is through God, through through Christ, because you know, He helps me with my faith. And there's stuff that I don't even understand, I may not even understand, or why things are happening in the totality and the fastest that is happening in life, because everyone has your you know your peaks and valleys through life. But one thing that I find in myself innately um comfort is uh I know someone that that knows what's gonna happen a year from now, two years from now, tomorrow. And uh I I reach for him, I search for him. And uh so yeah. So I want them to know that, all right, first and foremost, definitely Morris is definitely a uh a man of faith. Um I love how my spouse mentioned joyful. Thank you so much for that. So joy, yeah. Thank you, thank you for that. Yeah, I want them to know he's a he's he's faith, faithful, optimistic, uh joy, joyful, and you know he's been he's been through it, but in the same sense, he's better for it. It's almost like an ironing, iron sharpening iron. So even though you go through trials and tribulations, you don't have to stay there. Or if you do feel the need, or if you're hurting, I'm right there with you. Like we're gonna be hurting together. But in the same breath, let's get on out of here. There's light at the end of this tunnel, and it's uh it's always the darkest before the dawn. But if I can't be with you in the darkness, I might as well not even celebrate you in the dawn. So that's what I wanna want to be known as.

SPEAKER_05 1:53:06

Medic says his genuineness, faithfulness, and the laugh. Clean!

unknown 1:53:13

Medic!

SPEAKER_01 1:53:14

I love it when she comes through the the the chat. I love saying that. Yeah, they always come through with a clutch, too.

SPEAKER_04 1:53:26

Like, yes, thank you, thank you so much.

SPEAKER_05 1:53:30

Now you've talked a lot about your faith openly on on this tonight and in your streams as well. What's for for someone else that's getting in faith or wanting to stream, and you know, religion's kind of a uh hush-hush topic with the streaming role, how what would you give to them as far as just being open or not being ashamed of it per se?

SPEAKER_00 1:53:53

Gotcha. I know biblically um it's expressed and I don't want to I don't know the scripture and I can't quote it, but I know that it said in scripture that if you deny me on earth, I'll deny you in heaven. So that's one person that I will never deny. Like he's known me before I was born. And there's been I've been legitimately, uh, I used to receive death threats when I was a teenager. Um, there's been a lot of cases where I could have died from car accidents to uh just different circumstances that happened in my life. Um Dares can attest, there's been definitely different situations that happened to me that could have been, it could have been fatal. But I uh I serve a guy that sees all, hears all, and knows all. So uh to those people that if you're um struggling in your in your, I want to say struggling in terms of don't go to social norms when it comes to the way, the way of the world, the worldview. Like if you know in your heart, this is who I believe in, this is who I trust, this is who I lean on, this is who I rely in, that should be sufficient enough. And if you have to work through that, pray through that, please do that. Seek counsel, but like if you have like a local church, I advise you definitely to go there, uh speak to another person that also shares the faith as well, that can be able to help you, strengthen you, enrich you. One of the reasons why I mentioned um Malusa, I don't need how to say his name, his real name is Ian, but it's maluscent. I might have to, I know I can type his name in in the chat, but it's Malusent. Malush Malusius. Uh, Darius, you know him. I don't know, Darius, if you're still in the chat, if you could type in Ian's uh Twitch handle, y'all can see exactly what I mean because he's very unapolog. That's what I'm talking about. That's his name right there. If y'all can see in my chat, he is unapologetically bold about his faith because he um uh and he's an amazing streamer and he's always there to help. Like he's giving me so much confidence in terms of like he he was streaming back in like he said, like since uh 2012 and then like 2015, 16, he made so much money that he quit his job, and all he does is twitch. Faithfully, every day, 10 a.m. Eastern Standard Time, that's literally all he does, and he has a fan base of like 70 plus people. I think one time I was in his uh chat, he had like 120 plus, and they're all just having fun, talking, gaming, but I know it's because of who he serves and who he's giving reverence to that's got him to that position. Plus, he's a genuinely nice guy. The guy's a really good, nice guy. He's a married man, and um he got a kiddos as well. So yeah, I would say to those people that are struggling, definitely um I definitely would definitely advise to def uh to pray more, just be a little bit diligent, find enough, trying to find a church home, um, speak to others about the faith, but don't keep it in, be express yourself in a comfort space, you know, in a comfort space.

SPEAKER_05 1:57:02

Beautifully said, friend, beautifully said. So, Morris, I have two more questions for you. And one of the questions is an easy one, and the last one is the hardest one for the night. But what is your next goal or your next milestone with streaming?

SPEAKER_00 1:57:25

Oh, okay. Oh, streaming.

SPEAKER_05 1:57:29

Because we currently have you at 529 followers on Twitch and a thousand and thirteen followers on TikTok. So, what kind of goals or milestones are you looking at?

SPEAKER_01 1:57:39

Gotcha.

SPEAKER_10 1:57:41

Oh um milestones.

SPEAKER_00 1:57:45

That is hey, that's a good one. Okay, I want to make uh partner for Twitch. I would like to make partner for uh for Twitch for sure. Um I I want to garner more views. I want to be able to multi-stream not only on the uh uh from Twitch to TikTok, but also on uh on Instagram too. Because I'm seeing a lot of uptick and uh in Instagram. I'm not sure about kick. I don't know if you I'm I'm sure you probably heard about it, that other streaming gaming platform. Uh I want to do a little bit more history on that, but I uh I'm curious about it.

SPEAKER_05 1:58:24

Yeah, I don't really know uh very many people that's done kick. I know uh a couple of people that I know have that have done it really weren't too too impressed with it, but I don't know per se if they really gave it that uh a a shot per se. Like they did a few streams on it, but I guess it was just because they were so used to how Twitch operates and everything. So I'm not sure. But I've also heard a lot of good things about it too. So I guess it's just uh however you look at it type thing.

SPEAKER_00 1:58:54

Yeah, I um I really want to do that. And then like long-term goals, uh retirement. Uh so next month on the 28th of August, I will be it'll be 20 years for federal service. And within the next five years, I'll be eligible for retirement. So I want to be able to retire federally, but then I still want to have uh money garnered from what we're doing right now on this awesome streaming platform uh to offset what I would normally be getting every 1st and 15th if I were still affiliated with the uh Department of Justice in the uh HR DEA spectrum. So that's my long-term goal is to be able to procure retirement federally and um just be able to do what I love.

SPEAKER_05 1:59:40

Looks like some beautiful goals for sure. I mean, we all want to retire one day, right?

SPEAKER_00 1:59:48

Facts. Oh my gosh, true. So true. So true.

SPEAKER_05 1:59:54

Oh my gosh. Morris, here's your final question of the evening if you're ready for it, sir. And this is, I will say, the hardest question because it may not seem like it's nothing, but everybody that has answered it has always been kind of stumped on it.

SPEAKER_01 2:00:10

Get my scratch going.

SPEAKER_05 2:00:13

So Morris. Being on this platform for a few months with your followers on both TikTok and Twitch being over 1500 total. Someone new coming to this chat tonight says, I want to stream, I don't know how to stream or where I need to go to get started. What would be the best piece of advice you would give that person starting out tonight?

SPEAKER_00 2:00:43

Oh my gosh. Okay, okay, say it one more time.

SPEAKER_01 2:00:46

That is that that's a a brain teaser.

SPEAKER_05 2:00:50

Someone new comes into chat tonight, says, I want to start streaming, but I don't know where to start. What would be the best piece of advice you would give them to start out tonight?

SPEAKER_00 2:01:01

Okay. Uh the best piece of advice I would give them is I need to know their, I need to it it starts here. Before it starts anywhere else, it legitimately starts here. So I would gauge their purpose. I'm like, what is your why? Like, I want to know what what drives you, what's gonna drive you, what's gonna make you want to stream on those days when you don't want to. Like what's gonna make you create that schedule, what's gonna make you consistent, um, and not waver from it or deviate from it. So uh the first thing I would have them, I would need to know is their why. I need to know what what would what would drive them on those days when they don't want to do it. Because I would say when I first started streaming for the first two months, it was kind of like that honeymoon phase of just like, oh man, I'm streaming every day, every night. I'm thinking about streaming, I'm waking up and just having a stream delight. But after that's all said and done and the party's over, it's like, oh man, oh man, is it retro Wednesday again? Oh my gosh, I just had a long day of work. I just worked for like 10 hours straight. I don't want to do this. Not today. What's that, that purpose, that uh that reason that's gonna get you over that threshold? That's gonna be like, you know what? I'm doing this for more than myself, I'm doing this for my family, I'm doing this for more than myself, I'm doing it to commemorate my buddy Smokey, aka Richard Lee Donaldson that passed away last year. I'm doing it because my grandma, grandma sans that had passed away this year. She always provided for me, she loved me, and she was always with me in everything that I did. So you have a purpose that supersedes your bad days, your worst days, your horrible days, and you stream, anything is possible. Anything. And I'm kind of biased. I had like one of the coolest moms walking guys through nerve. So whenever I run into a funk, I just call my mom and she just like I don't know. She just has a wonderful way of putting things into perspective. So yeah, I gauge their mental, find out the purpose, help them in terms of uh uh people, places, people that could be able to help them out. Um, if they're trying to make uh uh from a follower here to a follower there, they're trying to make affiliate. Let's get these, let's get this ball rolling. Let's see, all right, let's when you want to get on the chat, like how long are you trying to stream? What games are you trying to play? Let's see what a leading market for the most average games that are that's constituting a lot of viewerships is these games. These are your top tens or your top 15s, but then in the same breath, you gotta play games that you actually want to play because you the viewer would see your enthusiasm, they could see that you're fully invested in the games that you're playing. So let's just say I'll definitely be with them. I'll definitely be with them, but I'll be with them here before I'm with them here.

SPEAKER_05 2:03:44

Beautifully said, sir. Know your reason why and get your resources. Beautifully said.

SPEAKER_00 2:03:51

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 2:03:52

And they definitely have a good mentor with you in their corner for sure.

SPEAKER_00 2:03:56

So be on the lookout, guys, guys and gals, because you can bullet now. We're gonna be playing some Marvel Cosmic Invasion soon. It's gonna be so nice. Oh, maybe we can do um zombies. If you like zombies, we can just do zombies.

SPEAKER_05 2:04:10

I mean we can we we can we can indeed. I have to get my Xbox Live backup though. I canceled it when I got my PC because I just never I just never got back on it after I got the PC, and I just couldn't justify spending, you know, the twenty dollars a month for it and not be playing it. So Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 2:04:28

You can switch your uh your activation account and add it to your PC. I have to do the same thing from uh for Black Ops uh 7.

SPEAKER_05 2:04:36

I gotcha, I gotcha. We'll we'll definitely have to look into it. Uh medic says Morris killed this interview. Yes, you did, indeed, indeed.

SPEAKER_01 2:04:46

I was trying to make sure no tears hit this mic. Well Morris don't sound all choppy and sloppy.

SPEAKER_05 2:04:53

That's all the questions I have for you, my friend. Hard to believe we've already been talking for almost two and a half hours. It's time definitely. For real? Yeah, yes indeed.

SPEAKER_00 2:05:03

Hey, is that the longest or the shortest interview that you ever done?

SPEAKER_05 2:05:06

You're tired for the longest.

unknown 2:05:10

The longest? Who won?

SPEAKER_05 2:05:13

Uh, it's it I'd have to look at it, but you and Rogue Ares are y'all, y'all went over the two two ten mark. Uh, medic says you made the hard question look really easy. And that's why that and you see, and that's why I say that question, people it doesn't come off as a hard question, but when you go to think about it, it is a hard question, and that's why it is the last question of the night.

SPEAKER_00 2:05:38

Yeah, that's a good one. Because I have to put myself in their shoes.

SPEAKER_05 2:05:43

Well, Morris, like I said, that's all the questions I have for you, my friend. I greatly appreciate the time you took to sit down with us and show us a little the the inside of you off stream and you know what gets you to do this day in and day out. Is there anything you'd like to say to me, to the chat community, just in general, just people that may not have seen one of your streams or they this is their first time finding out about you.
