0:50 you're fat probably heavy that chair is a little wobbly it took a beating it's a launcher okay got it at the end of the day be careful it's in a prop actually I mean that's so real this is my Discord uh avatars me in this chair anyway yeah oh nice um let's say you were trapped inside of a mango oh okay on a counter this is a riddle Steve doesn't know how would you get Steve the mushrooms to save you from the mango if I was trapped in a mango on the kitchen counter how would I get Steve to save couple other mangoes around you too how big is this mango am I just a tiny person that's it that's it that's it mango I don't know you have to start speak that on the counter Steve would pretty much be like what the ████ is this huge makeup too and I could

1:40 probably put like help me bust out I'm not sure I would notice it an elephant sized mango all the mangoes are the same size in a ruffle like that so I'm like an Indian other version regular mango yeah when you're in the mango the mango okay say native American now but that's not the title of the book I'm just saying it's what you got to say okay if we could make this question go for five minutes by the way that'd be great we just want to make sure everyone's clicked away and then we'll keep okay okay how do you get Steve to rescue you you've been kidnapped by mango um like can you hear me in the mango oh okay say no say no actually change it [Applause] oh this make us talking and I'd be like no it's me you ████ idiot I'm trapped in a mango and he's looking at the cupboards don't cut me evil like don't

2:33 ████ white I put her down the garbage disposal she said don't put food on the garbage disposal this is irony I don't want to exist anymore thanks for helping me oh man this is an interesting Aussie though do you like mangoes I love mangoes that's good that's good keep my way out of it before Steve helps see that's a better solution do you eat mangoes uh it's not my favorite and then I'd berate him about how I had to eat myself out of a mango because he couldn't save me that's correct so how's your relationship been these days I ████ love it that's cool because that's not what I saw I saw him complaining about pillows and stuff yeah and then I was like it's like you know you know in like first of all countries where you have it good like you have it so good that you have to look for things to complain about yeah that's him okay well turn up or not just a little bit what's the last thing you guys thought

3:25 about oh yeah that's a good question like to like legitly thought about not like just any bickering something that could bring those emotions back so we could see it recreated it'd be dramatic it could be not traumatic how big Steve's penis is oh oh this morning um I wanted to curl my hair in the in the and he was like it's 9 40. I'm like that's way more enough time than for me to curl my hair he's like just do it while you're at JK I was like I don't want to JK it takes a long time to heat up don't you know anything about curling irons he said no I don't you're right you curl your hair so he lost that fight oh that's why Nick got here earlier than him which I was ready I was packed ready to go I had to curl my hair and pack my bag because at 9 45 that's when you kind of want to look how's it going okay here at 10. are the household chores split pretty evenly between you two no he just

4:15 most of them know ████ it's because why are you such a Sim like the first five years I feel like I did most of them and then it kind of like I kind of cried so much about having to do all of it so then he's slowly started taking over yeah there's nothing to do with the fact that you make more money than him now that's 100 and Anthony I didn't want to oh quickly because I have autism make money at all he makes Bitcoins it doesn't cash out and they go down but they're not real Bitcoins they're alt coins yeah and they go way down I'm not real pictures there's other kinds of coins they're the the phobic course he makes money on JK and then he spends it all on hotels by the way because people are gonna

5:06 think that's real like no it's real yeah completely realized so much more money so you say you haven't been here like two years a serious question in the two years from whatever you've seen from afar how do you feel about the attitude area what's the attitude oh no you know about it yeah a little bit hurt but okay that's a good answer yeah yeah the ████ did you call me what did you call her I don't call her looking at this camera angle uh I don't watch the show so I don't know I haven't really observed that much um that's what that's what the guests always say and we believe all women I told Ray anime over here I really like his reels like I didn't watch I never watched JK even when I was on it but I've been watching the wheels have been popping up on my Instagram and they're

5:56 really funny yeah and I actually like giggled out loud a few times but I wouldn't giggle at the real show just the real of course of course that's why there's more subscribers on that one which real is your favorite question mine's a better question okay okay I think you're gonna waste time like that honestly the type oh you've been asked questions she actually went and watched the whole video after that I did no I did no so the videos work my butt yeah that's a good one the best gift we've ever had honestly yeah so it's a better question mark ask your dumbass question is recently you

6:46 had a big career how has that been and how has like your family re received it and all that because it's like it's big yeah oh it is boring well I mean yeah that I I was actually surprised my dad said he was proud of me wow has only said one time in my life when I was 26 that was the first time he ever said it we were at uh about to go to a premiere of a show that I was in that got nominated for something in New York and we were in New York and and he said it and I was like right before I was about to go in the carpet and I didn't know how to process it and I was like ah and so I just like shut it down and then this was like the second time he said it he was like he was like I'm really proud of you you really are an amazing person and he put it in the family chat oh that's a flex I picture your dad going like when he did

7:37 that Gate Theater stuff man I wasn't sure but when you're doing poker that's my baby girl no yeah your dad's the white one no Filipino Filipino that means so much it really did holy ████ you never believe white men well and he's also probably the reason I have imposters said no I mean not the reason sorry Dad but like but like uh like I never think like every anything's like really that good like that I do like I never you never got that validation yeah and it was like you don't know like it was always kind of expected to be like a better like academically got straight A's that's what you're supposed to do you're not it's no not a big deal like nothing's a big deal right and so but I think he played sports for so long he was a baseball player and so he was used to like like baseball articles like my brother would get written up in the paper all the time for his football plays and stuff and so when uh poker

8:29 news came out with a bunch of Articles like when they were like doing real time um articles of what was happening in the tournament he I he was able to read those and even though he didn't understand the terminology he got that it was like a sport and then I was like doing highlighting the coverage story yeah yeah it was wild really cool and they're like out of nowhere yeah my whole family was watching her live like they were pulling up on their TVs because you can do that that's ████ cool and they're watching her like live what was all going on no idea that so many people were watching either we were here watching well in every break we would see the score yeah we would be on the virtual wsops yeah yeah that was really that was really uh we're like oh ████ going up in the she's great game that's the biggest part I played so many games with you on JK party but I've never seen like a poker face yeah I think Mafia was probably the closest

9:19 example see like that with like like you're like the shot was like across the table I'm like oh that's pretty gangster yeah yeah that was cool my coach said that his favorite part and they did this at this latest tournament we were all in in San Antonio he's like my favorite part is that like whenever you're all in like you'll just shove on somebody and take your phone out and just be like like she's like that's so scary like you're just like I don't give a ████ do it call me and I'm just like filming it the whole time oh you're filming yeah yeah like I was filming up for insta stories Oh I thought I thought you were playing Angry Birds so I'd be like all in sometimes she has uh earrings on that says call me so gangster which in poker is obviously hilarious yeah and then she has a sweatshirt that says folding is boring that's actually a ramp it's great full thing is wait you're allowed to pull your phone on just like record people

10:09 playing like while you're playing wow that's crazy that's got to be intimidating it's right that makes sense well this is the 10 minute and 17 second Mark that where uh we actually got some submitted questions by fans yeah so um uh this is uh submitted by Steve's hairline um when Steve's Grandpa kiss you on the lips what are you really thinking that's true I don't think that happened waiting on the lips I blocked it from my memory what did you feel like in love a little bit I was like this is what it's gonna be like in 50 years with my husband oh you weren't like that's how it's like to be with a real man I was like I gotta get him on the alcohol and on the cigars and then it'll be exactly like what it'll be like okay all right second question submitted by uh Steve's Rebrand

10:59 um on a scale of one to ten ten being lustfully amazing how hot is Steve's sister actually how did you ever resist that she made me question my sexuality really I've never taken a hot shower my whole life were you intimidating at thanks were you intimidated at Thanksgiving yeah I was I was shaking I was busy like every time I picked up a drink I was just like damn please don't don't look over there sorry she's a married woman my sister was in was a maid of honor and I almost accidentally married my sister okay follow-up questions submitted by um all coins uh if you couldn't marry any other tuber who would it be

11:49 great question I don't watch YouTubers or from maybe from our generation then from our generation like that'd be like a shame who do I need to kill yeah to really just watch poker vloggers so probably one of the poker vloggers I know School poker vloggers uh Vlog I mean the poker guys Vlog like Phil Ivey or whatever's no well uh negranu does oh really yeah he probably has always been on he has a yeah he is probably one of the biggest um Vlogs and streams our poker vloggers actually good at poker I think so yeah oh I mean there's a lot it's just like how there's a lot of YouTubers like our YouTubers actually good at YouTube well a small selection are because a lot of YouTubers in that genre actually suck ass at the genre you mean like a

12:39 basketball YouTuber YouTube part of it well yeah I mean there's a lot of cool like okay Rampage for example the one that says the folding is boring sweatshirt he started at one three and he like is kind of like loose aggressive and he rose through the ranks so now he's playing like these huge like 100 200 High Roller cash games and so people like following the journey well just to give you some perspective one three like it's like a couple hundred bucks and what did you say 100 200. yeah so that means like when you're playing these games you might wait dollars yeah so when you play these games you might win like 50 bucks here 30 bucks there 100 bucks here if you're lucky maybe a couple hundred right but and maybe you'll go up to a thousand who

13:29 knows but that's like when it's wild but when you're going like 100 to what what's the 300 yeah like like 100 200 yeah that could be like 10 000 in one game yeah well more than that because the buy-in for 100 200 like if you're buying 100 big blinds would be 20 grand oh ████ yeah oh that's just the buy-in like 100 big Blends is like pretty much the minimum that you would want to buy in for at a cash game eight or nine people at a table and they're all if they all put in yeah yeah so like most of the buy-ins are like six figures each yeah holy ████ so there's like a million dollars on the table and ████ and like wow yeah and you're ████ playing Angry Birds you're gangster what was um what's your top three least favorite things about when you were on JK news um when we'd have like stories that were uh like I couldn't maybe like I don't know they were too

14:20 political or they're too serious like I don't know I I don't like I don't really like to comment and because I don't know anything about the story and then sometimes you're like you're just saying your First opinion because it's based off the information you're hearing and then later you find out there's like a whole bunch of information that you didn't hear about and people are mad at you I didn't like things like people like there's just a lot of people that get mad at you and I'm like man I'm just going off of what's happened in the conversation we don't know like I don't read the article beforehand like people just neither do we you're like hey this guy fell off a building and you know landed on five kids and they all died and I'm like oh damn that's really sad like well did you actually know that those kids but well actually rob the bank first I don't know

15:10 those kids actually headbutted the guy yeah but you'll be you'll be um pleased to know that doesn't have as much now like people don't get as Madness like those people are kind of gone because most people are gone so yeah it works don't challenge them to come back we made a good effort of weeding them out yeah most viewers what are the other two we did such a good job that you don't even watch the show anymore yep I never did watch the show them out all right that makes you feel better I never watched it no but the community is a lot better like they're really really nice yeah that was probably number one number two uh I don't know I guess they're like long hours there's like oh yeah back then wasn't it I mean these are pretty long hours but it was long I mean there was like 40 episodes a day those days were long it would get out like 10 so that's the other thing too is like by the end of the day you're just like barely a lot

16:05 of brain is like a bush pot right now a poor management leadership day three of this I don't know I don't ████ know nothing I don't even remember what the words are that are coming out of my mouth and then we would still go out together and eat that's nice and talk for another two hours that was the fun part the and then number three um it was called that's true yeah this office whatever it is if it's hot outside it's hot in here if it's cold outside it's cold enough insulation problem so it's not really like we have walls at all well this isn't exactly supposed to be office space and I think we all know that all right this is like a warehouse It's a loading zone we got neighbors doing rebar yeah the guy comes in he's like I got like 5 000 feet of rebar I'm so ████ sorry we're gonna be moving it up and down all day what do you guys doing here I have a

16:55 question so like when we met you um you were alive 2015. super old school times that's like what seven years ago at least yeah and then um we were all like deep in entertainment YouTube and we had that career trajectory of like going into traditional yeah media somehow and then so like we all dabbled in many different things and now you're kind of like fully full force with being poker Queen so like how was that Journey for you and then did you like ever did that settle in like okay I'm I'm not doing YouTube no more or like I'm not doing it in this way no more or like yeah that was kind of crazy because uh because I feel like I'm like one foot out one foot in like I I didn't really commit yet to being like this is a new route I want to take but it just keeps going that way so I'm like oh like I mean I like I like just follow like

17:45 what's pulling me um I uh I wanted to just get away from everything like I just at one point I just was sick of being looked at like I just like people think they want to be famous or whatever I never wanted to be famous but I like wanted people to like my work you know and like be known for my work and it just gets to a point sometimes like and I get it like there's this influencer community that like there's not like the greatest of egos in it and so you kind of all get lumped in one category and then everyone just like kind of hates you and judges you and does all this stuff and and it's a you have to have people watching you in order to continue creating and making a living doing it but you also have like a bunch of people judging you and hating you and I just didn't like all the energy on me anymore so I started playing poker just like to kill time and

18:36 be like just like to hide almost like just to be away from everything like and I I was like I liked going to the casinos because no one knew who I was like you wear a mask at the time because it was during like a pandemic and so and sunglasses no one knows no zero people know who I am even if they even if I didn't have the mask on nobody in that room would know who I was and so it was just kind of like ah like no I can just be me and like I can just like play a game and the cards don't know anything about you the cards just like they don't care it's just a game people are playing and like I just like that and then we moved to Vegas and I started playing more and playing more and then I didn't even play tournaments at the beginning of this year and then I started playing tournaments and then I was doing well with them and then uh now I'm like super involved in the poker Community I really

19:26 love it nobody knows you and it's a vicious cycle it's gonna happen again it's not like a destination it's more like oh it's kind of a place that you just kind of fell into and you kept going yeah and I like I love the community like it just feels so much like people that understand me and I get them and they get me as a lot of ADHD people and and people that just like um they think the same way and they're very in into like individual individual and they don't think they don't prejudge everything like so polarized that like it's not like left right political like you know how like in the real world like people just get so polarized in poker in that Community it's very like I think because you're analyzing so much in the game like you're analyzing a lot of situations and so people or more issues

20:17 based than they are like it does not gambling but like just that world yeah it does have a bunch of people who are more like these things don't matter yeah because it's like yeah like also playing games like that you start to understand human psychology a lot better but yeah I know what you mean it's like and then also it brings everyone together yeah because you're playing a 10 hour game and you might be some hardcore liberal next to like some hardcore Trump supporter but you you're like playing the same game you like poker a lot and then you just might be like well this guy's a human and I'm a human and yeah let's take his money yeah and I could take it yeah they just like talk to the conversations involved like no one's so aggro about anything like everyone's kind of just like yeah we're almost Casino together like we're all in this card room on the same level yeah but I did tell my

21:09 manager at one point because I was going on a lot of auditions and I was like don't send me out anymore like I don't when was that during covid um right before kovid actually and then like let me go poke them it kind of was like yeah this is the correct Choice and then um we moved to Vegas and I told them that I got that I was getting really into poker like this is way before there's like way last year early last year and um I was like yeah I'm getting into poker if you know any like more poker related because I wanted to do more like media hosting I still want to do this more like commentating and like media hosting for poker and I noticed that a lot of the people that or media hosting they they weren't like also players they were just like hosting and I was like I didn't understand the game like yeah like they knew maybe knew a little bit about the game but like there wasn't a like I noticed a lack of of that so I was like maybe I could

21:59 combine the Two Worlds something that I'm good at that's something that yeah yeah it was really fun did you can commentate like yeah in style and understand the game but you're also entertaining and she does it she does it on Twitch like every Sunday and I watch it like avidly like she's like talking about the hands and like why she's doing what she's doing and I'm not even interested in playing poker but I'm interested in watching poker and it's fun watching her play poker like it's just that's a good host it's really yeah exactly a good host will make something you're not interested in be really fun and she explains the game like she cares about it so I always like listening to people who are passionate about something like it's fun so yeah she's a great advocate for it thanks guys that's really cool do you want to ask the hottest question of the uh session Anthony you're always good at that yeah it's Steve's question is would you rather ████ yours your mom or your dad both because to see if it's your mother-in-law your father-in-law no my mother-in-law father-in-law well I

22:49 probably ████ your dad because um he has a penis like I love your mom but I just don't want to be next to a vagina well I'm just gonna swallow do you think that he you stay hard longer than you yeah I do JK like you've been around for a minute but there is a new era that you have to be inducted in and we have to make sure that you're old enough for kisses the last question is are you a fan of Clint Eastwood um I did see this clip on the I think it was on the reels no you didn't it's Ryan's fault because he put it in the reels you said you never she never admitted that she told she never told me that she saw it wait yes moment is ruined I I I personally am old enough for kisses
