0:00 also we we donated some uh some to hospitals and we were just trying to figure out so there's a doctor out there with a K [Music] mask GoFundMe actually recently has canceled a fundraiser for an Ontario woman who is charged with spraying her neighbor with a water gun important news that we're reporting here for first why wait what how come they canceled it just what was the fundraiser for like a water fight or like so they were fundraising her and her family were actually fundraising to pay off legal fees the initial goal for this was $5,000 but they had raised more than double that amount by the time that this double sitation had occurred yeah we were up to quote about $122,000 and GoFundMe contacted me saying that because it was
0:50 technically a criminal charge they were shutting the campaign down oh so it's not the water gun that well the thing is she was charged with assault with a weapon after accidentally spraying her neighbor with a water gun because she was playing with her kids at a backyard barbecue on September 1st no I see what's Happ she's a 58-year-old educational assistant why does she have a bit ass neighbor that's ratted on her well I mean hold on a real question if it's one of those 90 super soers that would kind of count that's true the on with the backpacks that's assault dude it's just a fire hydrant that's what with the laser that you just yell at oh yeah when you say fire yeah man that's so ████ up yeah so Wendy wasik was playing with kids at a backyard barbecue September 1st 58-year-old educational assistant was chasing one of them with a water gun when she sprayed a neighbor who was cutting his grass oh I forgot to say ass
1:42 neighbor sorry I didn't say that he then reported that he had been quote physically assaulted to Ontario Provincial Police wasik said she tried to explain what happened to oh this is Ontario Canada yeah oh everyone's a GMA no wonder I was like Ontario I was like no wait a I was like what not by the Ontario Mills yeah everyone's Ontario you thinking Ontario Mills everyone in the ass dude of course yeah Best Sports Chalet in the county best Rainforest Cafe brother over there it's a it's it'll be nice to be sprayed with the water gun that's true Ontario Mills yes yes let's keep talking about our Ontario they did a GoFundMe to um raise money for the for some other legal fees that they were going through yeah cover legal cost yeah man and people donating that's what surprising yeah they got the family
2:34 was able to still get $111,000 of the money raised prior to the pages removal uh then they started another fundraiser on give said and go platform um but you know the idea that gofund me specifically was like that is so crazy you could be charged with a assault with a weapon when it's just a water gun oh so they're raising money to defend against the guy who's claiming no no no they had other legal issu yeah they were just doing wait oh that's confusing that's really confusing they already had a pending court case and then they're raising money for that and then this is a separate activity where she shot her neighbor with a water gun and then because of that they lost the money for this funding thing for the other separate thing waa that's so weird yeah that's very convoluted I guess if you're raising money you need to be on perfect Behavior
3:25 cuz they could pull a plug on you anytime is that the reason or is they they they looked at her with like wait this is a you're trying to fight like a drug dealing case like we can't you can't get a GoFundMe for that it doesn't say specifically what the previous Cas is but I do understand conceptually that if somebody who is raising funds on their platform is like under some sort of criminal investigation or charged with assault of a weapon wow I could understand that but I don't understand it being criminal assault with a weapon when it's a water gun I don't understand your neighbor ratting on you I'm still just I my mind is blown that that many people donated yeah I think there's a white space here I I I call it a white space you know what it is it's we need to do bail funding yeah I was going to say people have a lot of extra money yeah yeah just laying around like what the heck most goofy GoFundMe pages that
4:17 I see AKA is like one degree of separation like we're actually familiar I'm not like scoping the side out or anything like that usually people hit their people always hit their goal or or you know have you seen people do it for like traveling they're like I'm going to Thailand this year for my birthday like I know I see that like I think I yo I think that should be ████ illegal dude you're trying to play and you're asking me for money you better go fund your own ████ yeah I Haven seen that I'm going to make a goj justice.com and then everybody that wants funding for bail for lawyers you guys can yeah funerals stuff like that yeah if you broke your leg then I'll feel bad for you and I'll pay but then if you're like oh I need a new shopping bag I'm like what the hell it could also be the other way around I'll just say that I broke my leg but I'm going to go buy a new shopping bag I'd rather be lied to yeah then you tell me the truth you want a good story you
5:08 know has anybody done a g onme of any type not necessarily specific G on me we did for masks oh oh so you're you're raising money in order and then I bought a lot of purses you were doing so remember when there was a shortage um so me and my buddy Joey Joey had a connect with miniso at the time and he negotiated with them and said hey before you release these to the public because what was happening is people would buy it as soon as it comes out and they would sell the masks for like 60 bucks a box and then that's when the hospitals needed it so what we would do is we would tell them hey we'll buy it for retail price so we did a GoFundMe we bought like I don't know like 60k Worth or whatever and then we um distribute it to hospitals oh wow okay so that's
5:58 actually like GoFundMe for for a non-selfish reason yeah so we did GoFundMe for that and then we bought a couple Rolex watches and then like no we we got we got gloves we got masks that's pretty cool you got to tell time when you're dropping off Hospital right I feel like pandemic was the year of the go fundme like everybody was gofund people were going up man all the dance studios had GoFundMe do you guys have masks still what do you mean like like Quest mask the co masks like just to have them around do you have them still somewhere I remember uh when we were when we were moving and I was like man I'm going to throw every one of these ████ I ████ hate these things I'm ████ tired of this Co ████ you're mad I was mad and then uh yesterday I was spray painting I was like ████ I wish I had a Mas I I need a mad I throw them all away
6:48 I should have saved like one box just in case they come in handy they doam Dona to the hospital dud I was so pissed I ████ hatte it that time because so like my my dance crew is called Kindra so we grown ass man dress up like ninja so we always wore masks right which also meant right when Co hit and we were selling masks we sold out like crazy and it was like reorder more that's the thing production everything like that went crazy in short and then we also started uh working also we we donated some some to hospitals and we were just trying to figure out so there's a doctor out there with a K mask there are there are cuz it but the funny thing is like those masks don't even work that well like we had to actually start putting disclaimers on our masks cuz they were very costume they don't work at all I mean not yours just mask in general any kind of mask cuz he could fart I still smell it if it doesn't block the fart it's not
7:39 going to block Co I don't think it's supposed to go that way you're supposed to still be able to breathe in it's more like if you cough then it's reducing the amount but anyways the science apparently was proven wrong but the point is I hated that ████ because we used to wear masks for like our our concept videos and dance stuff and the social media and then it got super associated with Co and then even when we started trying to wear masks after people would be like yo why you guys still in Co yeah your branding got mess so we completely just ditched it now and now we're just like putting it to bed and we're like ████ the mask and like let's just hang out and then they have like tan lines and well we did one uh successful crowdfunding we did Indiegogo campaign uh right after ABDC in order to raise money for the the dojo dance studio and it was the perfect time because we lost the show to These Guys these ████ his team lost to my team
8:30 we we won like a 100K or $100,000 and then he did a go fundme after and raised more than we won really how many people are on a team uh seven so seven split the 100K yeah that's great yeah after taxes it's like not much at all 50 bucks and there as the losing team made way more money wait why did you guys start a gof me was it like feel bad for me or like it wasn't like it feel bad for us but we didn't realize money to theud we didn't realize how bad people felt for us cuz we were the whole thing we already were mapping out that's why we were selling merch on the show and everything like that that's why we're shooting BTS show because but that's because we had seen people go on the show and we didn't think we were going to win anyway we were The Underdogs we're the only team there that wasn't an actual champion on the season of Champions this is America's Best
9:20 Dance cre on MTV back in the day so we were like ████ winning let's win by just showing up and marketing ourselves so we were already doing a full branding we had website read design we did our Social Media stuff and BTS guys to the point where even like super cre was like hey these guys have BTS guys we should bring BTS guys you know what I mean so we just kept on doing that and then we knew we were going to crowdfund for a studio cuz we wanted to open up a studio in our local community anyway but we just didn't know that the response would be so successful you guys passed your goal right yeah we wanted to raise I think like I don't know like 75,000 or something like that and we got like 115 wow yeah oh we did a board game oh yeah yeah yeah oh you did a gofund me to raise money for that oh the board game or the card game the it's yeah it's a card game I think it's it's Shady it's like our version of ma it's like Mafia
10:11 Asians yeah Asians not Asian agents how did it how did it go and what about after the crowdfunding did that make a lot of money the no not really because the the game that they were trying to play the people we partner with that it's if you get a certain number you can take that number and then go to Target and you'll get into Target they never really shopped it out for us oh it's never it's never about just making enough to so everyone could have one it's like trying to get into Target is the ultimate goal yeah did he I forgot like I think back when you guys did that I had asked you like how the sales were and I think you were like oh it's not that great cuz uh you need friends to play this game you can't play it by yourself he's like our Target honest doesn't have friends yeah
11:04 basically yeah you need friends to play the game audience four more oh man I can't play this I know but none of our viewers have friends so or they just haven't met each other you know yeah yeah I can't find it how much money did you raise was it Gund me or was it another was it another I think it was it own site Kickstarter could have been Kickstarter oh that's what it was Kickstarter is what people used for products it was Kickstarter it wasn't on like a uh Studio 71 site no we used we used one of those how much did it cost to produce a game like a a I don't even remember to oh so we got 190,000 what dang that's crazy that's pretty great and then what did you do with our goal was 25,000 we just fulfilled the orders like we didn't even really make yeah like it was the the the
11:54 the thing you would get different packages so yeah with the kickstarter yeah so our goal was only 25 5,000 but we made 190 but we were partnering with the MCN like which is um someone did this all for us they paid they take they took a huge premium they took a huge premium and on top of that they ████ ordered a bunch without more after that they bought more inventory without our consent so they were sitting on product so the game to play is you want to hit the pre-order like I think around August September then you get it fulfilled and then right time for the holidays you're like we have this and the new limited edition so I think the business strategy is like you ramp it up like crazy um but I think I don't but they didn't even consult with us how much to order cuz I was like if we exhausted our fan base and they bought as much as
12:45 they're going to buy why would you order like 100k more product and who were you going to sell that to and they were just sitting on product so I was like man so that Aid into the you know profits dang and our target audience doesn't have friends you know what that's the funniest thing cuz the it was all based on just kidding party and it never occurred to us that we thought oh they like watching a game show they must want they like board games right find out it's it's pretty ████ sad a lot of people that watch it is because they don't have friends to play with but dude even if you have friends it's hard how do you even figure that out cuz a lot of people would say sales are this a lot of people would say I would buy it but I have no one to play with the comments and someone someone literally they some
13:35 people actually bought it just so that one day when they have friends they could play with them one day they have that's the worst one that's like us being like prostitutes out of brothel like hey you should buy this for your wife like I don't have one that's why I'm here that's the analogy bares are the best I know Stevia it's hard to find even if you have a lot of friends it's hard to find ones that want to play a game can you still buy Shady agents no I don't these it's done you want one now it's limited edition that's a remix yeah Shady Asian Thro history PA pot we didn't even get to buy Rolexes with it
