But um yeah, Studio C has been around since 2012. M. And I don't know what network it's on. I feel like it it it has the quality of like a an actual TV show >> like Key and Peel level. >> Uh yeah, kind of. It just looks like a real like TV show. I think it might be
3:23 on some kind of a channel, but uh and they have StudioC has all kinds of like like uh big celebrities on there in comedy. >> Yeah. >> And then I guess they broke away and then did this thing which is JK. Um >> Sketch. >> Sketch. Yeah. >> Yeah. I I we should have trademarked JK, but you know, uh now it's an Indian news channel. >> Now it's there's just so much. There's another Just kidding pranks. Did you see that one? And people kept saying, "You guys have a prank channel?" >> No, I didn't see that. >> But it was like a prank variety YouTube channel and um it was like clean comedyish. >> Oh, really?

Okay. >> Damn it. >> ████ genius. >> It's too different. >> Yeah. I thought it was pretty funny cuz that this this um you know, this fan sent me their stuff and they were like, "Oh, you guys got a new sketch show. Cool. What if we start promoting all this ████ like it's ours? >> Go check it out, guys. >> So, we're just marketing for them. >> Cuz isn't there a JK News? That's an Indian news channel that was ████ with our algorithm. >> I looked into that and I realized it's not the news channels not JK News. The region they're reporting on is called JK. >> So, all all the news channels are saying this is JK News because they're reporting on California news. >> It's an Yeah, it's an area that's having some sort of conflict at the moment.
5:04 That's really hot. So, everyone's reporting on it. So, anytime that's why that one month, >> anybody who typed JK News was getting that because that's what everyone obviously their population makes us look like there's five people living in here. So, then they're like, "Oh, okay." So, most people typing J News looking for that. >> Yeah. I forgot what it stands for, but it's it's an area. >> Jambalor Jambalore.

5:55 >> JackJ, >> just jacking other people's Kaidas. >> Kas Jacking Kaidas. It is it is funny that like another another uh company called JK that does comedy >> cuz all you got to do is a simple Google search and you see ████ been around for almost 20 years now. >> But there, >> you know, there's another off thereord as well. >> Oh yeah. Yeah. The whole the podcast is called off record. Yeah. The whole thing. >> Simple Google search which is what you do in your due diligence branding exploration period. >> Do you guys own Do you guys own the comedy trademark for JK? Oh, that's probably >> Yeah. So then the second Google search is >> trademark they trademark this. No, we'll do it. >> Then we need to Google sometimes too. >> How do we protect ourselves? >> I guess that's our badge. >> Yeah. GBT. Do you own the trademark for Kinjas?
6:45 >> Yeah. >> Do you own NTE training? >> Uh yeah, I think so. >> No. >> You got a trademark? Those are expensive, dude. >> No, I don't. >> They're not that expensive. >> Yeah. Isn't it like 10 grand? >> Global trademark's expensive. Oh, >> and then trademark is for different categories. So, are you trademarking in the apparel like branding? Are you trademarking in just like creative? Like you have to trademark in multiple categories. >> I don't know. Um I have a I hired a lawyer for that. >> You might be able to trademark uh the spelling of it, but that's not necessarily trademarking the logo imagery of it. So like there's so many different tiers that you have to do. >> What the hell? Yeah, they ran into our trademark with when Quest bars came out, >> you know, the Quest Nutrition. >> And then there wasn't a problem with it, but then when >> it's a different industry, right? >> Different industry. But then they started running a promo team for like their trade shows that were like dancers.
7:35 >> They have a dance crew. Yeah. >> Yeah. And they called the dance crew Quest Crew. >> And we were like, what? >> You guys beat their ass when you sued them? No, we didn't sue them. We got it. It was kind of funny cuz we got email blasted and they were like, join the Quest Crew. And we were like, what the ████ It's coming to our Quest crew email account. >> Do they dance with the protein bar and ████ >> Honestly, they do basically. Yeah, >> they do. And they throw it out into the crowd. >> We reach we reached out to them and then instead of like I mean I I think now looking back we should have just sued them. >> Yeah, >> but >> but uh easy money. >> But instead we just met up with them and at their headquarters and just had a meeting talking. >> So you meant Todd B. >> Yeah, I was just about to ask you that. >> What' you say? >> Oh, the one in the one Blossom >> the one in Elsaundo. that that >> he's the owner. >> He's one of the one of the owners. >> I don't even remember who was there. >> Yeah. And he didn't even give you his time of day. >> I didn't even There was a bunch of
8:25 people. I don't even remember who was one job, but all all we did was literally be like, "Okay, so we're just going to They just gave us a bunch of product >> and they were like, "Yeah, we're not going to do that anymore. We're not going to do quest anymore." We're like, "All right, >> that's cool. >> Why don't we just let them do it and let it get >> How do you feel, Eris? How do you really feel? >> Easy money." >> Yeah, but you got protein bars out of it. Yeah, >> they weren't even good. >> No, they're not that good. >> Yeah, they're not that good. Yeah, but remember you used to >> chips are even worse. You could microwave. >> I like the chips, actually. >> I like the green one. The the the the green package. That one's good. So, what do you want to do about this uh JK sketch show? >> Sue them. >> We need money right now. We're going to ████ sue, bro. We're suing everybody. >> Got to be able to pay for the lawyers, >> dude. No, the lawyers will do proono. >> Proono. >> We got a good case. >> Proono. >> We're going to do a brand deal with them. That's all, >> dude. They're like they're basically
9:15 like they do sketches for like kids. It's like really clean and dope. >> We do too. >> That's dope. >> We do too. >> We're the world's biggest R-rated comedy channel >> for kids. For kids, though. >> Comedy family channel. >> Secretly hiding from their parents watching this show. >> Dang. I don't like this ████ man. People be copying our style. What are you going to do about >> I think we got to sue. >> We should do an improv show. I've never sued anyone before. This is my first. >> Maybe they'll they'll give us some product. >> There you go. >> They'll give us some jokes. >> Give us some jokes. >> You know what? You know the >> You know what the real play would be? >> What? >> You should just be like they stole from a minorityrun company. >> Oh, let's play use our race car. >> That'd be pretty funny. >> That would be cool. >> And it took us 6 years to save up to
10:06 make this lawsuit happen. >> Oh yeah, that's tight. >> I'm down. I will say I mean you know JK is like I I could see how that that idea might come uh organically and then if they do a search like they should find it but like you know you might think JK but if somebody were to come out and call themselves Careful Boys >> we got we got to throw some hands. >> We got to fight them. >> That's pretty unique. >> You're gangster Anthony. You >> No, I said we got to aka like >> I I'll film it social media. >> This is pretty it's pretty unique. I don't think anyone would want it though. >> That's true. >> Like they want JK cuz it's just kidding. >> Yeah, that's I think that might have been the same mindset we had when we didn't trademark JK either. Why would anybody want to do JK and then there's like five other channels? I don't know.
10:56 >> I just didn't know the laws. >> I didn't either probably. I don't know. >> And and I saw the price tag and I said, "F███ that." >> Oh, you should watch Barbell Brigade though. >> Yeah, but we have a team at the time and we're like >> But Barbell came like 6 years after JK. Like it's like it's a way different mindset. We like had all these like lessons that we could learn through JK. You know, it's like a different phase. >> I thought just getting a fictitious name and registering with the city was already a trademark. >> Yeah. And everyone's like, "Okay, off limits." >> Once I got an LLC, I was like, "Bro, we're a corporation now." Like, we're like the man. >> I was like, >> like we're legit. Like there's nothing else we need to do. >> Helicopters. >> Yeah. >> We're like, "Dude, we're Just Kid Films LLC, Limited Liability Corporation. That means they can't ████ take our assets. And at the time we had no assets. But I was like, I need to protect. It's like a broke dude trying to get a prenup, you know? Like I was
11:47 like, we got we're a corporation. They can't get anything now. >> Well, it's funny because like I feel like that's this they've been around 6 years. I'm sure there's a a a company starting this year that's called JK. >> I'm I'm also laughing because like with Joe trying to we're talking about like trademarking stuff and this guy's wearing a Care Boy t-shirt that is like a Sriracha logo. Oh, we got like a cease and desist from 99. >> Dude, all of them tried to sue us. >> You want to know what's even funnier is that they didn't even put the Z on Careful Boys when they made that. So, they ████ up. It basically looks like a knockoff of Careful Boys. >> Yeah. Look, Careful Boys with a S. Damn it. >> Incorporated, brother. >> We can't even claim that. That would be even funnier if there's an actual Careful Boys with an S inc out there that sues us >> and they team up with Sriracha for a
12:37 class action on us. >> The only thing we had going for us was the Z. >> See, business is hard, man. This is hard. >> The only guarantee is that there's no way anybody else is going to trademark Fear everyone. >> There's no way. >> But what if they do? Like they park a website. You know how some people are like, I like that. And then they're like, "F███ JK." So they start trademarking all of our phrases and they sue us. Well, that'd be Well, it'd be funny if somebody did that cuz then all of the JK's that have copied JK would be going down with it. >> Hey, we have to trademark now while the iron's hot. >> Okay, >> hope for the worst, expect the best. >> Okay, >> that line was a hitter yesterday. >> Thank you. All right, I'll write it down and then we'll get merch. >> Are you down to get merch made? I'm down. >> And Robo Bros. Robo Bros. >> Robo Bros. Robo Bros.
