But we're having a lot of fun

with this, I'm not going to lie.

So check out chapter pod.com.

Be part of the swag.

We love to see people

representing.

So hook us up.

Let's go.

All right, story #1 this is an

update from last week.

Robotics gone wild.

Let's head to Austin, TX, where

Tesla has started testing

something called a Robo taxi.

Oh.

Well, we talked about that last

week that they.

Were a robo taxi.

The robo taxi's from Elon Musk,

OK?

Yeah, it's like a pre thing that

we did last week.

Yes, that means a car that

drives itself with no human

driver at all.

Sounds cool, right?

Well, it didn't go quite as

planned.

It never does.

When does it go quite as

planned?

He smashed the fucking Elon

Musk.

Yeah, he smashed the bulletproof

window on a live stage with the

Tesla cyber truck.

Oh, did he?

Oh, he was trying to show how

strong it was.

He put his fish through it.

Well, it's just he's a robot.

Start with probably.

You know.

He's like data from *.

Trek I would I would expect

nothing less than something to

go wrong.

All right, these robot taxis are

Tesla Model Y cars that have

special software to help them

drive on their own.

Elon Musk, the head of Tesla,

says people in Austin can ride

them now for a flat fee of

$4.20, as we mentioned last

week.

And someday he wants robo taxis

all over the country.

But here's the problem.

People started posting videos of

these cars doing some seriously

bad driving.

One car swerved into the wrong

lane where cars were coming

toward it.

That's normal.

Another stop super fast and the

person inside got thrown forward

and all their stuff fell on the

floor.

Oh, that's like a ride at

Disney.

There's even a video of a Tesla

robotaxi driving over a curb in

another where the car slammed on

the brakes when it saw police

cars.

Oh, no police.

That's maybe normal in some

places.

That's over for people, not for

robots.

How's it get a ticket?

I I yeah, yeah.

Who gets the ticket?

Who pays that?

Even though the police weren't

over in his lane.

Oh, so they were just like on

the other side of the road.

A group in Austin tracks self

driving car problems.

And guess what?

They already had to report a

safety concern on day one of the

test, a college professor who

studies robot car said.

Wow, that's a lot of problems

for just the first day.

Elon Musk still says everything

is going according to plan.

It's all fine people,

everything's fine.

Nothing to see here.

And that millions of Teslas will

be driving themselves by 2026.

That sounds amazing, but after

seeing those videos maybe the

robot cars need to go back to

driving school before hitting

the streets full time.

Are you surprised that there was

chaos with this test?

On the first day you think there

would have been some type of

test before they rolled it out

with people?

Are you surprised the the.

No, I mean, everything has

problems, but that's then we fix

them and then we make it better.

Yeah, like this doesn't surprise

me.

You can prepare all you want for

for any type of experience until

you go live, until you're in it

like that's when things go

wrong.

That's when mistakes are made

and you and things get

corrected.

Now, should they have had

anybody in the cars?

I don't know, maybe, maybe not.

Well, how would you?

If you're going to go live, they

got to put.

People in listen if you died you

only paid 4 bucks, what's the

problem?

Well, thank goodness nobody

died.

Right.

Yeah, just some curb jumping my.

Favorite one is the one where it

slowed down for police, slammed

on the brakes.

Oh police.

Wait until you wait until people

figure out how to transport

drugs with this thing.

Oh, that's totally going to

happen.

You're going to throw it in the

Tesla?

Yeah, I don't know if it's true

or not, but I saw a thing where

if you're transporting illegal

substances in your automobile,

if you put it in a box and seal

it up like you're going to the

post office, the police can't

technically open your mail

without a court order.

'Cause it needs a warrant,

right?

Yeah.

But if a dog comes in and the

dog smells something, they can

open anything they want.

Probably.

Oh.

Can they?

Yeah.

Well then I guess they would

just detain you at all for the

dogs.

Yeah.

Oh, you can't open this package

like.

Alright, well.

It's you a smell.

You can't open it.

Well, the canine smells and I

get to now open and now I have

to detain you.

That's how that works.

What if you were to address it

to yourself with a different

return address?

Like I just picked this up.

I don't think any drug person

would ever address it to

themselves.

Possession is 9/10 of the law,

Yeah.

But I mean, I don't know what's

in this box.

I just got to the.

Post Office, It doesn't matter,

it's in your possession.

Oh my God, there's 3 kilos of

cocaine in here.

How in the world did that?

Happen.

Yeah, dude, come on.

It's not my laptop.

Like what?

Come on, mine.

Laptop when you go with porn on

your laptop.

I was going dark without

bringing it was actually.

Saying well, I thought I missed

something.

Tried to keep it G rated, you

know.

This is not AG rated Joe.

I know, but still YouTube is

sensitive about something.

Else, I just thought of

something else to talk about on

the Patreon.

OK, all right.

A hero dad on a Disney cruise.

Yeah.

Now let's go to the ocean, where

a scary moment turned into a

hero story.

On June 29th, the Disney Dream

Cruise ship was sailing back to

Fort Lauderdale, FL.

It had just finished A4, a fun

four day trip to the Bahamas,

but there's a little girl

somehow fell off the ship.

Oh boy.

Wow.

From the 4th deck, which is a

few stories up.

But without even thinking, her

dad jumped in after her.

That's right.

He dove straight into the ocean

to try and save her.

The ship's crew didn't waste a

second.

Over the loudspeaker, they

called for a special code M or

Mr. MOB is must be the head

overboard.

Yeah.

Mr. Bed Overboard much?

Must mean a man, I'm guessing.

Oh, it stands for Man Overboard

and it means emergency.

The crew threw life rings into

the water and quickly sent out a

rescue boat.

Thanks to their training and the

fast action, they found the dead

and the girl in just a few

minutes.

Everyone was safe and back on

the board and back on board.

Soon after, one passenger wrote

on Facebook, a girl fell from

deck four and her dad went in

after her.

The rescue team was on it

immediately.

Even though ships like the

Disney Dream have clear safety

rails and special cameras to

detect if someone falls, it's

still a mystery how the girl

went overboard.

Does that surprise you that the

father went out instantly after

their?

Kid No.

I mean, I would do it too if it

was mine.

I mean, I'd do it if it was your

kid, but I mean there are

probably some that wouldn't.

OK, and what about you?

Does it surprise you that the

dad just jumped instinctively

jumped in after their kid?

No, but what I'm thinking in my

head is how pumped the crew was

because they probably been

training for this ever since

they got hired.

Yeah, that's true.

OK, so where's the line?

Let me ask you that.

Where is the line for you to

jump overboard?

Let's say it's some kid you

don't know.

Would you jump overboard?

Oh, that's what you mean.

I thought you meant like, how

high I meant.

I thought you meant like, if

it's your kid, how many stories

up to where you don't jump?

Oh.

I dude it's 10 stories I'm

jumping.

Yeah, if it's your own kid,

yeah.

It doesn't matter.

We either die together or, you

know, yeah.

I don't.

It might be a little different

if it's somebody I don't know.

Yeah, you hold the line at

somebody you don't know.

Depend on the circumstances, the

situation.

I mean, you know, and sometimes

you get caught up in the moment.

You don't even think.

You just go.

Yeah.

Like there, there's a video

circulating, it looked like it

was down on the keys truck

crashed onto the side of it,

looks like the seven mile bridge

and the truck was dangling off

the side.

The kid fell out in the car seat

into the water and some

bystander just parked his car

ran.

He didn't stop.

He just ran and jumped off the

rail, right.

But that's a little different.

You know, you're not out to sea.

7 mile bridge isn't, you know, 8

feet maybe off the water if

that.

That's a little different.

And there was boats down there

that immediately picked up him

and the child.

What about you, Boots?

Cruise shipment of the ocean.

Somebody else's child that I

don't even know.

Yeah, I don't know.

It probably depends what time of

day it is.

What type of day it is?

No what?

What time of day?

What time of day it is?

If it's night time, no way.

Yeah, that water's dark.

Well, you're not.

You're not a boat guy anyways,

even though you're in the Navy,

you're not a.

Boat Guy Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So he would get Navy flashbacks

about being on the boat.

So I can't go on that one.

Yeah, you're terrified of the

boats regardless, so daytime

maybe.

Yeah, daytime.

You probably can jump.

Yeah, I could see me jumping.

Yeah.

Yeah, without hesitation.

And I could see my wife losing

her mind.

Don't do it like she could Not

our kid.

Yeah.

Stop.

No.

You know.

Stands in front of you.

Wait.

You know, that's the that's the

yin and the Yang of things,

right?

The organize the organization

and the chaos, I guess to some

degree, but I just wanted to

know that this type of article

is not helping, you know, the

Chevron Kevitch family getting.

On a cruise, it's still not.

Yeah, You know, they just

published the worst ships, too.

Did she pull?

That out the worst.

Ships the dirtiest ships.

Oh really?

Yeah, I saw the Netflix of the

The Poop documentary.

Oh, if you watch that, I just

saw the commercial.

Before I saw a highlight of it

and I'm like, we should watch

this and then we'll never get on

a boat, never get out of a.

Boat.

Was it a Carnival cruise?

I don't.

Yeah, there's a Carnival poop

cruise.

Yeah, those are nasty anyway.

Really.

Carnival's allegedly Allegedly,

Carnival is the party cruise.

Is the party cruise?

That's the cheap one that

everybody can get on, so it's

usually treated a little

rougher.

Yeah, right.

And they have the adult type

games where the other cruise

ships really don't.

What would these adult type

games be?

Palmer.

They do like scavenger hunts and

they'll do like, you know, first

woman who pulls a condom out of

the purse or something like

that.

Oh yeah, or first woman who's

got a size triple D bra.

Switch your partner type stuff.

Is this like a heat check game

where?

It's sort of like a bingo type

thing.

Yeah, I've been on several

different cruises.

No, not swinging cruises.

No.

Are you sure?

Palmer, you've seen them, know a

lot about this.

I've.

Been on many cruises situation.

You've been on many cruises.

If you're taking children,

Disney's probably the 1:00 to.

Do, yeah.

I mean, I wouldn't take them on

swinging cruise, that's for

sure.

Well, no.

But Disney has the best child

program.

Yeah, they have a whole deck the

the no casino.

All sexual assaults are up on

the on these cruises and now

kids are jumping off.

I don't know man.

Yeah, I don't know how the kid

fell off.

You.

Would have to try.

Yeah, I'm glad the dad saved

him.

Saved her well.

I'm glad they were both fine.

It's a real dad.

Yeah.

This is.

This is like the Tesla thing

like oh man, is it?

Should we stop having cruise

ships now because one child fell

off?

No.

Well, that's the the one guy

poops their when my guy shits

their pants.

We all wear diapers.

Time for this scenario?

Yeah.

OK, let's all wrap up.

Yeah, well, everybody was fine.

Thanks to the crew and the dad.

Everybody.

It's.

Obviously a real dad.

Anyways, he's going on Disney

Cruise, you know what I mean?

Like, right, It's not a Carnival

Swingers cruise like you would

go on with your kids.

Yeah.

OK.

So here, kids, he he pointed the

kids on the Carnival Cruise.

He pointed up.

The DOE paid top dollar.

Yeah, you definitely paid top.

Dollar how you doing on

switching you you're you're

bringing the heat.

Oh, yeah.

OK.

All right.

Just checking.

It's all in Ginger.

What?

They're all all the cameras,

just.

Everything's staring at Ginger.

All right, a $50 million wedding

and a social media surprise.

All right, now it's time for

some glamour.

Let's talk about a wedding that

may be the fanciest of the year.

On June 27th, Lauren Sanchez, a

journalist and TV host, Mary

Jeff Bezos, the founder of

Amazon and one of the richest

people in the world.

Their wedding took place on a

private island in Venice, Italy.

And guess what?

The guest that was packed.

The guest list was packed with

famous names.

Oprah, Usher, Bill Gates, Karlie

Kloss.

I know who's sure that is

anybody.

I know one name that wasn't on

there.

Diddy.

Is that what you're going to

say?

Yeah.

Well, he just, he just sent

back.

He couldn't attack.

He's got to walk out, he's got

to go Scott free first.

So like that's got to happen,

which will be.

What was great is Jeff Bezos

probably got a decline card for

him.

Sorry I can't make it this year

having a lot of stuff going on.

Please give my regards here as a

gift of baby.

Oil, I'll see you at my party

next year.

Take this Lube.

Well, the Kardashians did get

invited, though.

They did get invited.

They didn't get invited.

That's a release.

I was so concerned.

People think the wedding, the

wedding the wedding.

People think the wedding cost

between 4.646 point 5 and $55.6

million.

What the hell does he care?

That's called Friday for him,

Yeah.

Right.

Yeah, that's probably walking

around money.

Yeah, that's that's enough to

buy a castle or even a small

town.

But Lauren made even more

headlines when she did something

very unexpected after the

wedding.

She deleted every single post on

her Instagram account.

She went dark.

She just deleted everything.

She went Zero Dark 30.

And then she changed her name to

Lauren Sanchez Bezos.

Yeah, the other person was dead.

And posted 2 new photos.

One of them showed her in her

wedding dress, a beautiful fancy

lace gown by Dolce and Cabano

with a long train and high neck.

She wrote not just a gown, a

piece of poetry.

That sounds lovely.

Some people say she wiped her,

wiped your account to start

fresh with her new life.

Others think it was just part of

the wedding magic.

Whatever the reason, one thing

is clear.

Lauren and Jeff's wedding was

huge, fancy and full of

surprises.

And now Misses Bezos is making

sure everyone knows it's a brand

new chapter.

It's a new dawn.

It's a new day.

It's.

A new life.

Music like to choose another

name Michael.

Oh indeed I would.

I'm glad you were in charge.

Somebody writing these down.

Oh, you have.

I have them.

Oh, OK.

I'm like nobody's writing.

These down Richard Beard,

Junior, OH.

Nice.

Yep.

All right, boots, time for

trending sports.

Sing Bong.

Who you on?

Palmer yes.

Why are you on me every time I

just.

Scratch my nose too so that's

great.

My nose is very itchy today all.

Right.

Hello peoples, this is a long

one.

Is it?

Not that long, it's 3/4.

Of a Jake Paul tells booing

crowd Shut the up.

You can say that word on our

show.

That's fine.

No, I'm glad you.

I'm glad you exed it.

That's nice.

No.

Problem.

Well, he reads it the way I put

it on the paper.

No problem.

No matter what I put on the.

Paper after beating Julio Cesar

Chavez Jake Paul told a booing

crowd to shut the up after

defeating former middle weight

champions Julio Cesar Chavez

Junior by unanimous decision on

Saturday night in Anaheim, CA.

All the boos are words and

actually speaks louder than

words so y'all can shut the up

pop, Paul said.

Man we got to get this ink issue

ironed out here in the post

match interview while making

taunting gestures to the crowd.

I'm hip, I'm really hip.

I just beat your boy easy work

You're five wait till I get

going even more.

Mother Paul, 12 and 17K OS

appear to be taking the biggest

risk of his unique boxing career

by facing his most accomplished

opponent, 39 year old Chavez,

54, seven and two and in front

of and our dentally pro Chavez

crowned in Southern California.

This ink is really bad.

You got to practice your

reading.

It's not the reading, trust me.

I mean, look at.

This I read it, you can see the

sides.

Why is it messed up again?

We just got new ink.

It's a brand new thing.

I don't know.

At least yes, we need a new

printer.

At least it seemed like a risk,

until Chavez stepped into the

ring at Honda Center and looked

lifeless, barely throwing a

punch until late in the fourth

round for the Cruiser 8 bout.

Even with his famous father

shouting furiously at ringside,

Chavez fought tentatively and

tepidly against Paul, who

patiently controlled the ring

and landed just enough to win

rounds.

Chavez first mounted A

discriminable attack in the 6th,

and he delivered several

exciting shots in the ninth,

finally exhibiting the skills of

a long boxing career.

But he couldn't seriously damage

the YouTube turned puglist.

Pugilist.

Pugilist, who jumped on the

ropes in the celebration after

absorbing several flurries in

the 10th and final round.

The judges scored it 9990190892

and 9793 for Paul.

The Associated Press also

favored Paul 9793.

It was a 2 minute story.

That's not one.

OK, so Jake Paul obviously won.

He obviously paid him off the.

The story, for some reason, was

that he swore at the audience.

OK.

I mean, I can't believe people

are are you, is anybody watching

these stuff, these things

anymore?

It was trending, so somebody is.

Well, I didn't, did you?

No, no, I know he's going to win

every one of them.

Yeah, he's paying these guys,

bro.

It's just so is he paying these?

Guys allegedly.

Allegedly.

I don't follow him but they did

say I don't know if he read it

or not because I can't

understand him when he talks.

But the boxer didn't even really

start trying until like the

second or third round.

Right, like it's designed where

I think if the person wins, they

have they don't get paid.

Allegedly.

Allegedly that's that's a

conspiracy theory behind it all.

There's no I, I have 0 interest

in any of these.

Do you watch?

You don't watch these.

No, just.

First of all, Chavez is a great

boxer.

Yeah, this guy would plummel

Jake Paul.

Yeah, he took a paycheck.

Did the Tyson fight ever

happened or did that?

Yeah, it happened.

Oh, did he?

And Tyson started to to hit him

and, you know, it looked like he

got in.

He was like, what are you?

Doing Oh yeah, hey, stop paying

you man, come.

On Yeah, you got to ease up.

This isn't real.

And then all of a sudden, you

know, Tyson's kind of biting his

glove or whatever.

We talked about this years ago.

Yeah.

I don't know, man.

It's not.

It's amazing that kudos to the

guy forgetting the exposure and

getting paid the way that he

does.

I mean, that's fantastic for

him.

I can't believe that our society

still buys into it.

And then he was a complete ass

to Pierce Morgan.

He was on Pierce's show.

Oh, the talk show guy.

Yeah, and he was like, I'm just

trying to get your viewers to

watch my pay-per-view dumb ass

or something, and then just

hangs up on him.

Oh, it was a phone call.

It was like a Zoom thing.

Yeah.

And I'm like, damn dude, that's

just.

Guy's a jerk.

Yeah, very tacky, yeah.

Terrible, let's ban him and

nobody watch him anymore.

It's sad that everybody does

want to watch him.

I don't, I don't, I don't get

it.

I just don't get it.

I wonder how much the

pay-per-view made.

I assume it was pay-per-view.

You don't have the details no

it.

Wasn't part of the story.

There was no money mentioned.

I'm sure it was a lot.

I'll look it up for you.

No, that's OK.

Let's move.

On I want to know because we can

take a little bit of time here.

I don't think this guy does

anything for little amounts of

money.

Well, no.

Why?

I mean, if you get paid, get

paid.

Right.

So he'll keep doing it as long

as people are watching.

I'm sure it was over $50

million.

Let's see, I asked Crock, that

doesn't say.

There are no specific figures

available for the pay-per-view

revenue or buy numbers for this

event in the provided data or

general web information.

Unlike his previous fights such

as the one against Tommy Fury

which reportedly generated

around 800,000 pay-per-view

buys, or the Nate Diaz fight

with approximately 450,000 buys,

no concrete data has been

released for the Paul versus

Chavez Junior event.

JB also claimed to have

generated 250 million in

pay-per-view revenue across his

boxing career up up to December

2023.

So.

Maybe it's down this way,

they're not releasing.

Yeah, I think that people are

just kind of like, OK, alright.

I've seen enough, you know,

maybe it's just entertaining.

I don't know.

Yeah, he's like toting that line

between WWE and right.

Yeah, and real boxing.

I don't think he's toeing the

line.

I'm think he's there.

But like, these people are kind

of like selling their souls for

this, like, you know?

Right, Well, well to be honest,

most of these boxers that are

boxing against them in these

things, they, they don't make

this type of money on their pay

per views.

Yeah, not even close.

Right.

So I mean, one pay-per-view with

him is their whole boxing

career.

You said Chavez hasn't done

anything since 23.

No, I was saying Jake Paul, that

was what he reported from the

pay per.

Views.

Oh I thought you said Chavez's

pay per views up till 20230.

Jake Paul's Oh, OK, gotcha.

So I don't know.

So I mean that means that I

think that boxing in itself

probably needs to be

restructured completely Were

these?

Boxes a sanctioned boxing match.

Yeah, there.

He's figured.

He's figured this out.

He's figured out the loopholes

or whatever the case may be.

Yeah, it's sad, dude.

It's crazy.

So, you know, So, yeah, I think

that this needs to be fixed.

This is why boxing has gone down

the tubes for so many years.

Boots is already tired.

No, I've been tired.

It's 25 minutes.

Alright, Michael, let's hear

about this Liver King thing

that's going.

On SO, have you seen any of

this?

Yes, I have.

I started to pull the story.

Then you texted that you were

going to talk about it.

So.

OK, so Liver King is has gone

off the reservation at this

point, Yes.

And he started to go after Joe

Rogan saying that oh, I want to

fight him and blah blah.

Blah, right?

Challenge, Challenge.

The Liver King.

You know who Liver King is?

Liver King is.

He's this dude that was

originally eating like liver and

saying calling himself like a

primal woman.

Eat all meat.

And he believes that, you know,

all you have to do is eat meat.

But then it leaked out that he

was taking, like, $10,000,

allegedly $10,000 a month in

steroids and stuff to make him

as big as he was.

Yeah.

So he went out and made this

claim that he wanted to fight

Joe Rogan.

Yes, he started.

He started making videos.

They both live in Austin.

Do they both live in Austin?

That's what the story said that

I read.

I thought that he drove down

from somewhere else.

Oh, he said.

They both lived in Austin.

Joe Rogan would wreck this.

Guy, Oh my God.

Oh dude.

Well, he meant he, he mentioned

that part of, you know, I, hey,

I want to fight you.

I know you're going to kick my

ass.

I don't know jiu jitsu or

whatever is Rogan knows.

But where does the Liver King

live?

We will grok and find out.

In a cave far, far away.

He does live in Austin, TX.

Oh.

Look at that.

Look at you.

Look at that I read.

You're so smart.

So cuz he was that there was a

video of him driving as we're

driving to go meet Fine Rogan or

something.

Like that Supposedly in some of

the videos he had AK-40 sevens

too.

Oh really?

Yes.

So Joe Rogan filed a complaint.

He considered it a credible

threat.

Yeah.

So they arrested the Liver King.

They did, yes.

And they gave him a.

He's out on bail and he made a

video about being arrested.

What an idiot.

Why would you admit that you

have AK-40?

So he's got an.

Ankle, it's in the video.

It's not like he admitted he

like had him in each arm.

Have you watched some of his

videos?

No.

I've seen him on TikTok but not

lately.

He sort of has died off.

Maybe this is a way of

resurgence, you know, trying to

research his image or something.

Brand, his brand.

He still has millions of

followers.

Or maybe he was on meth or

something because like.

He's like a, he's like a wild.

What's that one guy that has all

the guns and the girls and all

that stuff?

Yeah, Queen liver, the liver

Queen or whatever is supposedly

works out too, but doesn't need

as much meat or something as you

do.

But he's sort of died off.

Yeah, well, after the whole

$10,000 a month steroid thing.

Right.

So how do you come back?

You pick the one of the most

famous guys and he's local, and

then you challenge him on social

media.

So.

Now everybody's talking about

Liver King again.

So I started watching some of

his videos to see where he went

crazy, right?

I gave up after about like the

six or seven video.

Like OK, this guy's been crazy

for a while.

However, I did notice in one of

the videos he's got a big

humidor in the background.

Oh, he's a cigar guy, Yeah.

Oh, did he?

Postonia Cigar isn't.

It I didn't see Poston but I did

see the Placencia Alma Fuerte

box.

Oh.

Yeah, and it was totally empty.

Distinguishable box?

What?

It's a very distinguishable box

that Placencia is.

There are some other boxes too,

but I don't know what they were.

He's obviously not clipping

anymore.

I don't know who's.

In all no, no.

Well, I've been on you.

You've been talking most of the

time, OK?

Dan Blitzerin, Like a Dan

Blitzerin.

He's just a wild Dan Blitzerin.

I don't know who that.

Is.

I don't know who that is either.

Oh.

So yeah, I'm like, oh, he's a

cigar guy.

I don't think he's ever talked

about being smoking cigars.

No, I don't recall ever seen him

smoking a cigar on his any of

his videos.

He's too busy eating all the

time.

Eating his meat.

Meat and bone marrow and, you

know, testicles and I mean

anything you could think of

that's.

Testicles.

He eats balls.

Yes, he does eat balls.

Yes, he does eat vegetables too

though now I think I've seen him

eat like a raw potato or

something.

Everything's raw, it doesn't

cook anything.

Right.

Do you think that he tried to go

on Rogan's show?

Like hey, I want to talk to.

You.

Oh, I'm sure or hoped that this

controversy would get him on

Rogan's show.

One or the other, maybe he

requested and they're like, fuck

you, you're crazy, we're not

having you on there.

He goes.

Oh well then I would like to

fight you and he's going to go

away.

He just went straight to the

death wish.

Right.

But I mean, look, it worked.

You watched six of his videos.

You wouldn't have watched.

Yeah, it's true.

I did watch them.

I wanted to see if I could.

So other people and I were

looking at going this guy's

crazy, I have to watch all his

videos.

See where he fell off but I

realized.

Now he's famous again.

I realized that I couldn't.

I didn't have that kind of time,

but I did see the cigars.

I was like, oh, cigar, how come

we don't talk about the cigars?

Now this'll die off and he'll

challenge somebody else.

Why?

Don't we talk about the cigars,

Liver King?

I mean, you want to.

Come on this show.

You smoke in the album.

Fuertes, right?

We'll have you on this show.

You can fight him.

No.

I don't want to fight.

You don't want to fight, Liver

King.

I'm a lover, not a fighter, very

passionate.

Think how famous we'd be.

If I fought Liver King.

Right, I'd be the corner guy.

Boots would be the guy with the

bucket that you spit in.

Yeah, oh, I'd spit in.

His bucket and his.

Bucket in the.

Bucket.

You know, they he carries the

bottle, squirts the water in

your mouth.

You turn and you spit it in the

bucket.

Come on.

I've seen boxing movies.

That's what they do.

Yeah.

Boxing movies.

Yeah, I'm the guy that yells the

direction to you from the side.

Yeah, and then I rub his head

when it goes really well, like

in Rock and Rocky.

Just real quick, is that the

only boxing movie you've seen as

Rocky?

Yes.

No, no, no, no.

They're Wolverine and the robot.

Wolverine and the Robot.

The actor.

Not.

Not actually.

Oh, he's talking about yeah, the

yeah where?

He yeah, where the robot still

or something I think is called.

Yeah, yeah.

Where the robot mimic cinema on

the side.

I've seen that one too.

So you've seen Rock Em Sock Em

bots?

Yeah, got it.

And there's some old movie that

Ricky Schroeder was in where his

father died or got beat up or

something.

That's an old movie.

Though, OK, I was just thinking

he used to talk about cigars,

that's all I'm saying.

No, that was my point.

Yeah, we shut.

He does all.

These he should eat them.

He does all these other things.

Why?

Why don't we talk about the

cigars?

Don't know.

That's my point.

All right, moving on.

Moving on.

All right, folks, it's that time

again.

Welcome to the Cigar News, where

we breakdown what's new, what's

hot, and what's hitting humidors

around the world.

From the fresh releases and the

rare finds to factory updates

and limited editions.

If it rolls, burns, and smokes,

we're going to talk about it.

So grab your cutter, spark that

stick, and let's dive into the

smoke filled headlines.

Nice.

This is the Cigar News.

OK, jeez Louise.

Trying different things, Relax.

I liked it.

All right, Michalis, blue and

red cigars hit the shelves.

If you like cigars, then listen

up.

Mccauliff.

Mccauliff Cigars just dropped

two new smokes and they're

looking pretty cool.

Blue and red.

Stop letting Chechi be T give

its own opinion.

I thought they had blue and red

already.

Yeah.

This is special soft packs they

call the Mccauliff Blue and the

Caliph Red.

These are box pressed Toro

cigars.

It's a special cigar.

New size.

Yes, which means you kind of

squared off instead of round.

They feel neat in your hand and

come in shiny new boxes of 10

cigars.

Both are 6 1/2 inches long and

have a ring gauge of 54.

That's a pretty big cigar. 6 by

54. 6 1/2 by 54.

So it's a Toro.

It says that's a pretty big

cigar.

What it says here I don't know.

Get off the ChatGPT bro you got

a bail on.

This well, it's a combo of our

regular supplier of our news

stories and ChatGPT.

So it makes it more hours less

there.

Maybe go back to the regular new

supplier and just give it.

Give them their credit.

Give them their.

The blue cigar has a Mexican San

Andreas wrapper with a mix of

tobaccos from Ecuador, the

Dominican Republic and

Nicaragua.

Inside is meant to taste rich,

smooth and balanced.

Rich, smooth and balanced?

Yes, is it?

That's what Chat TBT came up

with.

No, that must be from halfway.

There's no way I.

Don't know.

It's rich, smooth and bad.

The red cigar also uses Mexican

leaf, but this one is a bit

bolder.

It mixes tobaccos from Mexico,

Nicaragua and even Pennsylvania

everywhere, so it's got some

extra kick that should be.

These two cigars were made just

for smoking, which means you can

can't find them anywhere but

smoking, OK?

Mcalp's president Dan Thompson

said he's excited people are

loving the blend and happy to

work with them with the team at

Smoke Inn again.

Was that the guy that sent us

the link to the YouTube thing

with the pylon room?

I think.

I think it was Dan Thompson.

Yes.

Yeah.

Holy moly.

The.

President of the company.

Look at that.

We didn't know that.

He just came out with these new

cigars.

Great.

Great for you, Dan.

Did Dan not watch the video

before he decided to tell us

about it?

Probably not.

But he knows hey.

Anybody want to guess the price?

OK, are.

The red and blue.

Sure.

OK.

Is it?

Are they in sealed packs?

Is that what you're saying?

They were like 5.

Yeah, a little little 10 pack.

It's a 10 pack you.

Said a 10 box.

They come with shiny new boxes.

Shiny new boxes.

Do you?

Am I guessing the price of

individual stick or per box?

I have the individual price you.

Have the individual price, yes.

OK, Boots, you want to go first

or you want me to go?

I'll, I'll go.

OK, you go.

It's.

Macau 9 bucks I.

Was gonna say 1050. 9 bucks you

got it right on the head, damn.

Did you read that article?

No, but he's.

Read the article.

He's read the articles.

He will not lose at half wheels.

Guess, guess the score.

He refuses.

To he he well, he can only get

one of them 'cause there's one

current and then one old.

There's no way he can pick out

the old one.

I've never even looked at half

wheel ever except for when you

guys posted about Postagna. 9

bucks 9 belt Wow.

Alright, Supreme Leaf, Grand

Toro.

Oh.

Arrives with a new look.

Next up, cigar news.

Get ready for a big and bold

cigar called the Supreme Leaf

Grand Toro.

It's the newest cigar from

Arganosa Leaf and it's the

thickest that they've ever made.

So this is the purple with the

yellow.

This is the purple, yellow,

orange, or whatever the color.

This is Ginger's favorite.

Yes.

So, so you said a new look

though, Yeah.

Is it just the size of the cigar

or?

Is it?

Yes, It's a grand Toro.

It's a bigger Toro.

He's going to get into it right

now.

The cigar is 6 inches long with

a ring size of 56, so it's

chunky.

It's called the Grand Toro and

it's packed with tobacco that

comes 100% from Nicaragua.

That's called a puro when all

the leaves are from the same

country.

Puss with a ChatGPT acts like

we're idiots.

It's also a limited edition,

which means they're only making

3000 boxes and each box has 10

cigars.

So if you want one, don't wait

too long.

Here's something cool.

The Grand Toro also has new

packaging.

Oh.

It still keeps the orange and

purple colors that the fans

love, but the box is.

Box and Band got a sleek update

to celebrate Supreme Leaf's 5th

birthday, so they've been making

this cigar for.

Five.

It's only been five.

It's felt like 10 like years,

yeah.

Forever.

The company says the cigar was

made to look and taste special,

and it cost anybody, anybody

$16.

Supreme Leaf.

Yeah, Supreme Leaf Grand Tour

More.

Than that, That's a big cigar.

What is it?

And they charge a lot.

What's your guess?

Let's go 18. 1595 hey.

I was right there.

You were very, very close.

You must 16.

You must have read this clip in.

I don't know how to read.

If you like the Supreme Leaf

line, this one might be worth

it.

So light up and celebrate,

because the Grand Toro is

bringing the party to your human

door.

Bring it, put it, put up, put

up.

Put it you need to just not do

this.

All right, AJ Fernandez

celebrates 10 years with a new

world decision.

You're.

Blasting through these news

articles so.

It's a 3 minute read.

New World.

Now let's talk on someone who's

been who's been in the cigar

game a long time, AJ Fernandez.

Question or let us roll into it

a little bit, but.

You're supposed to be asking the

questions when you don't.

Even give me a chance.

All right, next one from Trot

JBT.

This is a great.

You want to talk about the Grand

Toro we're.

So excited for it's Richard.

Actually, I have a question.

I have a question.

Good, good, good.

What's the question?

OK, so tell me the size of it

one more time. 6 by 54.

It's a grand Toro. 6 by 54.

It's a chunky little Toro.

So what makes it a Grand Toro is

it's just a little.

Bit longer, fatter.

A normal Toro is a 52.

There you go.

Is it?

Yes, 6 by 52 is a standard size

Toro.

Yeah.

So it's a 6 by 54.

So I was going to ask if you

would smoke this, but of course

you would because it's just a

little bit bigger than a

regular.

Tour, it's an LE, it hasn't come

out.

Yeah, it's come in 3000 bucks,

no.

I'm saying, would you smoke it?

Would I smoke it?

Yeah, we'll probably Patreon

that pig.

Terrence is down a Nicaragua

right now, probably getting

them.

I love the fact that we went

after Terrence with our jokes

and our short clips and he just

didn't engage.

Nothing he he do better.

I go after him almost daily.

Do you him in his khaki pants?

Yeah, well, there's Palmer with

his.

With the Kanki pants story.

So are you excited about the

size of boots?

I mean save my 54.

What do you think?

I think the sizers are kind of

silly, to be honest.

Yeah, yeah.

I actually kind of, I mean, I do

like what Skid does and I mean

Saka does it as well, like I

think.

Covering his ass.

He likes what those two do.

No, I think the games need a

need a.

Change.

Because like when you say a Toro

or a grand Toro, that to me a

grand Toro would be something

that would be longer.

I don't know, just in my head.

That's called a Churchill.

Right. 7 inches.

Right, I'm just saying.

Like so they're making a six

which is a Toro size and 54

makes it grand.

Right I.

Don't like Sinisafina has a

grand box press robusto Yeah I.

Don't.

Know right, it's a little fat

robusto, yeah, it's bigger

around.

Can see seeing cigars when it's

bigger around.

You get to call it grand.

Or just call it a 54.

They did.

They said it's a 6554.

No, you don't.

Everything's got to have a

Everything's got to have a name.

That's what makes it special.

Yeah.

Otherwise, we're all just

selling cigars.

Right.

Hey man, let me get the Supreme.

Leave the new 54.

I don't think.

OK, so we're coming out with a

bigger warbearer at Christmas,

and we're calling it the

warbearer of mass destruction.

It's a grand perfecto.

Yeah.

You want us to just call it the

big perfecto?

No.

What's the ring gauge?

What's the ring gauge, Mike?

It's a six and a quarter by 56

Think he's the national sales

manager and he doesn't fucking

know.

I got so close sixty quarter by.

60.

It is a six and a they get 6 1/4

right?

Didn't I?

No.

Is it a 60?

Yes.

So why'd you just call it the

New 60?

'Cause you who wants to call it

by number?

This guy's in charge you.

Want to call it by the number?

This guy's in charge.

I'm surprised you didn't ask

ChatGPT what the new size of the

new war.

Barrel.

I don't have it handy right

here.

My phone's over there.

Well, Michael, the the new

warbearer, the beautiful size is

the new delicious, are you?

Trying to turn around to me.

You want us to call everything

by the number?

No, I know.

I think it should be the number.

I like that he's attacking you

now.

Well, it's because you're trying

to deflect.

No, it wasn't.

You're in construction business.

If somebody just go and go, I

would like A50 Kitchen.

I would like the 42 inch upper

cabinets, yeah.

Well, that's a 42 inch upper

cabinet because that's what it's

called.

But they don't come in and go.

I would like the 72 bathtub.

I bet you the Grand Toro

cabinets would sell better than.

That's right, Grand Toro.

I would like the Grand Toro.

Yeah, well, we can give you the

premium grand Toro ones, or you

could take the standard 42

inches.

Give me the grand Toros.

I don't.

Know right?

I'd like the grand Toro that

sounds.

Great over the 42 or the 54?

Either one.

Yeah, it's a grand.

Oh, now he's shutting down.

I'm not sure I know.

So are you excited about the

size or are you going to smoke

the cigar or no?

Of the Which one?

The Supreme Leaf, 6 by 54.

The 54?

Oh yeah, I mean, are you going

to smoke the 54?

Basically, why the Hell's my

nose so itchy today?

It's.

Basically a Toro.

So you're the grand Toro.

Yeah, it's a grand Toro.

So you you will buy it.

I would buy it and you would

smoke it.

I would smoke it.

Would you smoke it in front of

ginger and be like this is great

and not let him partake?

No, I would.

I would get him a cigar.

Too.

You get him one too?

Yeah, All right.

Just checking he's.

Very nice that way here.

Yeah, it's very nice.

He used to buy us stuff.

Palmer, are you?

Except would you?

Would you?

I don't.

I don't like their cigars.

You don't like?

I'm not a bit gay.

The Supreme.

Leaf.

The Supreme Leaf is the best

cigar out of the whole.

The supreme Leaf.

I agree.

Well, yes, it's a supreme one.

The Supreme Leaf is the best

agonorsa that they make.

That's why it's called Supreme.

Right.

I can only smoke.

There's cigars of Terrence's

here.

So you need him around all the

time.

If I'm going to smoke his stuff,

yes I need him.

Around you need Terrence

present, yes.

They're all bad.

Their tobacco's not bad.

They have some of the best

tobacco in the industry, I.

Find it to be a little bitter.

I don't know why, I just just

don't.

Just all their tobacco in

general.

Yeah, I just not a fan.

Not the personal.

Terrence, you're a wonderful

man.

You're very tall.

The Homer Simpson one did Well,

Homer Simpson, Yeah.

What was that one?

The.

Arsenio.

The Arsenio.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, well, well, what about?

Like the the.

Rare leaf was good.

I didn't like the rare.

Yeah, but it's not supreme.

It's only rare.

The Supreme was better than the

rare.

And then the Connecticut's good.

The Connecticut Rare Supreme.

No, no, just the.

Regular.

I like the Connecticut that.

Greg smokes, yes, because that's

all he smokes.

Yes, I like that one.

Paul, he like a lot more things

than you think.

He took people, he took somebody

out the other night, but he took

them out for teppanyaki where

the they cook the food in front

of you.

Hibachi.

Yeah, well, teppanyaki.

Teppanyaki is what you call in

China.

Sorry.

Hibas.

Hibachi's Japanese.

OK.

Sorry, just what I'm used to

calling it hibachi.

OK, He took somebody out for

hibachi and they even wore the

Daniel Miyagi headband.

Must have.

Must have the napkins around

their heads.

Must.

Have been a big account.

Yeah, I guess.

Yeah, it must have been.

Oh, they were the little ninja

turtle.

Ninja Turtle head headdress.

No, they look more like the

Miyagi dough karate ones.

We're not making the hibachi

list just for yeah.

No, we get, we get tapas.

He's like, oh, we're never

getting taken to another again.

He's like.

Come buy it.

Come on by, I'll get you an

That's.

About the extent of it, that's

OK, what's the next story?

Long time AJ Fernandez got that

anniversary cigar.

Long time AJ.

Celebrating 10 years of his

famous New World brand.

That's been, that's been out for

two years, 10.

Years. 10 years.

I'm surprised that that one's

been out for 10.

Years.

It's not new anymore.

It's called Old World.

Old World.

Yeah, AJ has created us, but we

better not.

It's not.

It's old.

Age, the not so new world.

Why?

AJ Well, he made a cigar for us

at one point through Espinoza.

It was delicious.

I got news for you, Palmer.

Nobody is safe, OK?

Not a single person in this

industry is safe from our humor.

All right, he's he made a

special cigar called the New Old

World Decennio.

Decennio is Spanish for a

decade, so it's about honoring

10 years of blending and

rolling.

Are we?

Going to mention another name or

do you have you have 5 names

positioned in this?

OK, all right, just relax.

I am relaxed.
