0:50 way too damn welcome right and at other times we'll be accused of being way too damn alright well what is it then we're both ████ we believe okay now this is this what represents america better than this yeah war the idea that they're wearing both hats and jab boxes and kindred shirts is killing me right now worlds are colliding right now that's like a tight dude they're not respective beliefs by the way over the years you know we've been accused of many things yeah 2022 we want to take our identity back all right like i want to address all the ████ all the drama all the ████ but also thank all of the viewers that stuck with us you know we are the cockroaches of youtube and you guys are welcome here

1:40 you know because cockroaches welcome everybody we are like the underground people of las vegas or the skid row members the mole people thank you it's an honor thank you it's such an honor thank you this is the place where entertainers either come to be lifted up and leave us or this is the place where entertainers come have fallen to and die to be snack stagnant sideways and slowly together yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah very nice right not just in front of you too what are some of the things you would like to talk about you're the host he just gave a list so i was like okay i would like to hear him elaborately finally you know like uh we had some fallen soldiers

2:30 you know i'm not i'm not gonna sugarcoat this right we we have some fallen soldiers right like um and i'm not gonna act like they fell you know i'm gonna act like i'm gonna tell you the truth you know i ████ booted the ████ out of people you know some people they left on their own terms others i don't know you know like it just ████ happened i'm never gonna address it no you didn't i'm gonna cut that right there no sorry joe's a nice guy he's he's a very very very very magnanimous very very charismatic a very strong personality on the tube when the camera's on i gotta say that and that's why i respect and love them yeah but bar and joe are some of the nicest dudes and you know i think that they've always made decisions i'm interrupting you but they've always made decisions and calls for the best of other people and for the for the community why you gotta have my back like that my bad they're dicks we second that i'm second this as well you

3:20 know i like being the villain and i like being the dumbass my bad he booted some people tooted and booted but what i'm getting to is that you know like i you know like at the end of the day like um you know it's it's it's always been like i just want to be here to ████ crack jokes make fun have fun with everybody right and then the thing is like 2021 was wild like we didn't know the pandemic was going to continue happening all this crazy ████ and like when we started filming again the ████ everyone was afraid of rona when you guys came together were like yo let's get rona together you know it was so ████ cool yeah i think bart and steve literally said i remember i remember saying one time because i got the rona mid-2021 and these guys literally like you can ████ come here and spit in my spit in my mouth i'll ████ swallow it yeah and then i'll show you my tongue oh i saw it

4:12 and i i i just i'm just i'm just grateful that like this group right here is is like maintaining with me and um not only is this like fun to do i'm having much more fun than i ever did before in a very long time yeah yeah i think it feels really good because you know when we first did jk news like the whole start of it it was after our jk film shoots or jk party shoots we would just hang out in the parking lot and ████ around and it would be like let's say we finished shooting during lunch and we would keep ████ around in the parking lot just talking ████ and then we look at the time we're like oh ████ it's time for dinner so i guess we'll all go grab dinner like that's how how quickly time flew by and like oh ████ we should record this stuff and so like that kind of parking lot talk you know like just through with the ups and downs of how

5:02 sensor culture is and how comedy has changed and all that so like even with like you know different cast mates it kind of the origin feeling and vibe has gone through its own journey and this is the closest with you guys that has been to the origin feelings of that parking lot and if i may step in as the elder here of the cast members uh because i think i'm the oldest person here as far as like who's been here consistently over the years yeah yeah yeah uh yeah i noticed that because like when i first came oh yeah sure you came on 2013. you came out [Laughter] [Music] but no but it is cool because i remember when i first came in and there was that

5:53 like where we're all hanging out extracurricularly all the time and then yeah i think you know cope it happened and we all just obviously like just went back to our respective homes for like years like two years anyway and then now it does feel more like especially with this trip and all this stuff going on like um it just feels like it used to feel which is cool which is really cool that's what i wanted to get back right is that i think something happened over the years where comedy took this weird direction where we were self-editing we were being like oh ████ should we do we say the right thing or the wrong thing are we angering people you know and then like the whole thing was we had to navigate and i was like man we never had to do this ████ we could be authentically who we were and then now people understood who we were too that's another thing but going back to like how grateful i am

6:44 to being back to that original state where we can like crack jokes and and then basically the people that are you know here with us that are still watching they like this content so then it's almost like we could go back to what we originally wanted to do in the first place and like you know talk about these topics and be funny and like be true i think that's the ultimate thing is like man there was a time where i was like i want to say something but i'm scared because if i say this what are the consequences that's gonna happen to my friends you know our company all this ████ and we're not even saying things that are that dangerous and it's in the name just kidding news and it's cool that everyone here like has each other's back and i feel like if we were to be like a band i think we were just like some guy would play a chord and everyone knows how to play

7:34 along so i'm really grateful for all you guys youtube brother yeah appreciate you in all honesty all you guys i love hanging out with all you guys um even this guy somehow it's crazy the funny thing is this is the funny thing right on camera right like people really think that steve bullies the ████ out of anthony uh he kind of does he does for the cameras but but which is a lot of the time that i'm with them but they hang out the most yeah like you guys been ████ bed buddies for like a whole two weeks i don't know what you're talking about okay don't tell them that stuff man come on man you're off cameras for a reason you're gonna live it together for you know what i mean like so like a high key don't like this guy hi he even started using his words dude i've had fans like in the dms asking me please like control this have like

8:24 control steve he's like bullying anthony it makes me uncomfortable i'm like are you ████ kidding me bro like how does that make you feel anthony thank you to the fans no ████ you you know why because that means dude you don't know true friends i think true friends can exist when you sound the ████ out of each other because you know where you guys are coming from yeah yeah right it comes out of true love and that's where and if anthony really had a problem he wouldn't be here the next take and the next take and the next take and that's what true friends is and this fool's ████ i don't even know what to call him i kind of use any of these words that's 2020 i call this dude i call this dude fat ████ for four years straight when he was like getting stronger and actually losing weight and getting more ripped so oh so you're using you're using opposite disses you're using opposite distance so it's

9:14 clear that it's it's a joke you guys are using truths against me you ████ opposite we use opposite all time i don't know i love i'm gonna i'm gonna add on to that i really um what's what's interesting for me is uh even though i only came here six times in the last seven years yeah yeah seven years thinking there was there was a consistency and a feeling that i always had here which is why i always like really love and appreciate being here and stuff and it's that you know for me for people who knew me before like um most people on social media get to receive like my artistic and my dance side and i just happen to be that type of like gemini with different personalities where like when i create and i dance it always ends up being like a little bit serious or a little bit more like you know ethereal because that's the only way i can express myself in that way because when i'm not dancing i don't know how to express some of those feelings and jk always kind of gave me a place to do and express myself in an honest way that wasn't through dance i had a voice i felt i honestly

10:06 felt like i was given a voice here it was just a guest or a host or whatever position i like got to talk i literally got to just share thoughts on things express my opinions you know really just get to meet new people that i never would have met that aren't from like the dance community and stuff and that's what i i really received from you and and those things are invaluable so to be even here in now 2022 because last year was the first year that i i got to finally kind of become a regular you know things covered in its own blessings like you parked me at home i couldn't fly on travel and dance and do ████ anymore so i was like ████ i might as well go on jk news more i'm more available and yet that ended up being like if i didn't have jk news especially last year like i honestly had have no idea what i would be doing i would still be scrambling to figure out how to like fix the things and the problems that have occurred during the pandemic that were uncontrollable but

10:56 like jk just kind of gave me not even an escape but just like another home so i really appreciate that proactive about it too though like there'll be times where i'm like i'm like hitting you up maybe like once a month or something and you're like hey you know what the next three weeks i'm actually here like let me know i'm like so i really appreciate that i love it i feel bad because his announcement video of we have a new host had the ████ drama of the century it was the one of the most hated ████ yo i i really do i rarely read the comments and then it was like oh she was my first time posting so i was like i should check out the comments how am i doing no i was ████ blown dude all the oh ████ yeah i don't know everybody loves you dude it's so easy it's so that's why we pile on you dude because if you weren't cool and if you weren't all sexy and a sex hacker and ████ yeah yeah yeah if you said all this ████ it'd be bullying yeah it'd be

11:47 bullying so we can't it's too cool yeah but instead we're punching up yeah we're punching up dude it's all super fun you know he's like he can empathize with the stripper because he's more than just a pretty face with a nice body that knows how to move exactly he has thoughts and he has opinions the the actual best thing about it is that is that ryan anime isn't as a dancer we'll never bring it up we never talk about arguably the best dancer we have one dancer in the room there's one dance in the room and we never bring it up ever great bridge i'm very happy that ryan's here now i gotta ████ that dude ryan's always been one of the ████ coolest dudes and it's just so crazy that he has such a close connection to you guys separate from anything that i've known about him through dance and stuff and he just ████ knows everything from sgv you

12:38 guys history you guys ████ church colt thing that you guys are a part of that i found that out on jk news that they went to the same school i didn't know he was the same ████ guy oh did you know that they went to the same ████ school i knew they went to school but that's what you found out on news while we were sitting at the tables like this today's video is brought to you by feels cbd is not about what you feel it's about what you do not feel such as oh i feel stressed or like oh i hurt my pain my shoulder oh and anxiety and the part of what you don't feel is so true recently i've had this like big ass knock on my back have you ever had that before it's like over here oh yeah and you're just like you're kind of like this yeah like you know when like you have a big brother chasing you and he ████ punches you in the back and you

13:29 do like that yeah yeah like it's to the point where i move my neck up and down and i can still feel it and i have a really good physical therapist but she's super busy so in between it's enough where it affects my sleep and what sucks is you're in the cat2 position because if you don't sleep you also don't recover fast and if you don't recover it's gonna stay there it hurts more hurts more so what was cool about having some feels put a couple drops underneath my tongue drink a nice little warm tea have a nice little bedtime routine and i was able to relax way more and i think my natural like body like tensing posture kind of relax and it has been helping my back a little bit in the meantime before i get to see my physical therapist so i'm super happy that i got feels and i brought it with me over here and it's super easy to use you get a couple of drops put in your tongue and you can start to feel the chill effects

14:19 and if this is your first time tampering and playing around with something called a cbd and you're not sure it's a little bit scary no worries they have a hotline that you can call and be like hey you know what it's kind of embarrassing but not really i never use this stuff and i and i'm scared oh i don't know if i want to take a bunch or a little i don't know what's right for me can you guide me and they'll be like yeah that's what we're here for it's pretty cool yeah and they also got this monthly membership so if you're going to take it on the regular you get to save a little bit of money and it takes away the hassle of having to order every single month so make sure you go to fields.com that's f e a l s dot com off the record to get 50 percent off plus free shipping that's fields.com off the record to get 50 off plus free shipping yeah so we have mutual friends and i'm like oh that's cool and he goes wait and you made this connection you're

15:09 the guy you're joe mama or joe mama yeah but then for it it was really funny because i was talking about people and i mentioned joe mama and he goes oh you knew that guy he's trying to slice something like try to test me and i was like i didn't i he was just like had a reputation that followed and i heard you because it was a legend but he's like what did you hear about this guy like he stuck his own dick in the bathroom yeah that's your mama that's that's your mama yeah you heard him when he said i'm him i'm joe mama like my world just ████ [Music] like i don't think i'll be i'll ever be able to explain how notorious that he was in my high school like it's so weird yeah trouble for something so cool dude joe you gotta train the new yo joe mama yeah at that school mama i gotta tag that on the wall there's a

15:59 boy without direction out there who needs he needs a mentor yeah that tripped me up but i mean aside from that the fact that i'd known both of them for so long and didn't know that i knew of him like just as a different person was trippy i used to back in the day like because i always viewed uh bart and joe as like we were allies in that generation of like asian independent entertainment and we were like working together to like make this wave like work out and then anytime that they were like hey come on in jk or do a sketch i was always like dude i wish i could do more of these but i didn't want to ████ vlog he didn't say anything because i didn't want i didn't i don't want to be that guy that's like i was that guy i think i'll be like hey i want to do more of this stuff you have like a ceo personality you're a go-getter i'm more of like a shy like hey i'll move i've never said no obviously like

16:49 any time he's like i'm not busy yeah he's been all coy but i've always wanted to like just be around just for the fun of it one of the oldest sketches we did was that like a jk films like suicide pill thing yeah yeah that was nuts you know how many people didn't want to ████ do it you were the 14th person they called i'm glad i was there for the suicide pill ████ about ████ you know making fun of suicide basically but at the end of it it was like a psa because he was just like yo dude just reach out like we you know but then like people heard of it like hello people were like i'm ████ touching this with a ████ temple pool dude i don't even remember this ████ but i would have to say though the crazy ideas that we've had there were so many cool people that were just like let's do it let's ████ do it dude yeah yeah years ago was that that was 2009.

17:41 god dang i think this is our 15th year on youtube maybe even 16th started in 2007 and then i think maybe 2000 yeah probably 2009 to 2011 or 12 were super like we were getting after sketches like crazy and that's that's what was like the coolest thing was just being around and hanging out and just chilling and then i ████ came and saw this guy steve green and i'm like when i met you i like i think i told you like dude i've seen your videos that stuff and you were so nice and i was like i thought that dude was gonna ████ roast me or like bully me or something such a nice guy yeah i'm not because when i met him i was like dude he's got a ████ legend that's so cool you know what i like about like just this this whole vibe is that everything is like organic right like you have a lot of groups out there that are industry chosen or like kind of manufactured as a company at the end of

18:31 the day it's a it's it's a ticket like it's a it's it's it's a paycheck like yeah you guys get paychecks or whatever but there's a lot of things that you don't ████ have to do or we don't have to do like film here at the trump tower we're burning a lot of ████ dumb money like you know me but like it's like let's do it dude let's have fun and then and then i think in the past too if it maybe it wasn't the best way but i had a lot of fun doing it it's just like organically picking people and like slowly like building true relationships and then then when you have these conversations they're much more authentic and then they're much more real and they don't feel forced like a like a fake talk show or anything like that and i think capturing that and giving that to the audience is like the best ████ ever well i think it's like bart said because i really i mean i've spent so much time with you guys

19:21 over the years that like i really can't tell when bart's about to finish a point and when you're about to pick something up and like it's it's a great little thing that we have and like i feel like i mean do we i know we have that right like i like and i even even ryan like i know i can i can i can pick i mean you you i was just saying this to anthony this morning on our drive in today i was like man it's funny when ryan opens up i'm always like oh ████ like my ears just like perk up and i'm like okay whoa because you're like a deep dude um but you don't always just give us that you you you kind of pick your shots you ain't you aim for like what you want to um come across as which is great but yeah and and he was like oh so i'm not that deep and i'm like hey it's not me i'm used to it because i i see this guy

20:12 like every ████ day and so it's it's still remarkable especially when you two open up because i'm like i'm not as used to you guys opening up which is great technically we said we're still not used to nick opening up he's the ████ best deflector in the whole he's the best what are you talking about what do you what do you mean like deflect what do you guys want to know i told you guys everything your what does that mean look what does that mean i tell you guys everything you want to hear hey no you have been a better boy about opening up yes to give you credit but it's just it's just entertaining to see the dynamic and how the dynamic i really like about the group here too kind of touching upon what steve is saying is everyone is kind of like a legend but no one sucks their own dick ever right like nick beats people up but he

21:02 never talks about our ████ people up we got two sick ass ████ dancers that never go like oh we're on ████ tv steve's ████ legend and comedy no one ever refers to themselves as the stuff that they do youtube comedy youtube comedy but it's just like i think people like but you got videos that are like 200 million views 226 million people that have crushed it in their in their field yeah and um and you're here to to join us at this bonus talk ████ this boneyard but that's what i told nikki the first time i was driving away from doing jk i was like you know i could do that every ████ week and i didn't always say that you know you do collabs on youtube it's hit and miss you don't know what you're going to get you guys all know when you show up you're just like we'll see how this goes i don't know how you actually are in real life and then like sometimes it's great sometimes it's not but with these guys i was like dude this is just like an old friend group and i can tell like it's you can tell

21:53 everyone's real friends and stuff so it's been it's been awesome man i'm really thankful for this place this place gave me because you know my channel got demonetized and ████ nobody cares nobody's sad for me but the point is is that the the best part of it is that i had a place to go right i had a place to go where i could still go and it made sense to come to and you guys gave me that and i i've always said to these guys privately and on camera i always want to defend this place like especially like like the room like because i what you guys made with this particular room is just so free and like everyone can come here and just be themselves and yeah we all take shots at each other and ████ but it's all it's all ████ frankly it's all just you know we're just we're just playing a game we cut and then we all laugh our asses off and then you know this guy cries and we laugh even more and when he says this room he means conceptually not this trump room we're talking about the trump suite 6202

22:46 come here next time put your hand on the wall we were here anthony please let him roast you because that's the only way he's going to stay with us i don't have a ████ choice he needs a pinata let alone i got it i gotta say he says this all the time too which is also really ████ funny i would not have ever guessed that i would have met a friend like steve which literally i met him last year in 2021 because of jk yeah and at first it was kind of like oh you like crypto i like crypto too and now it turns out he's like the dude that i've like talked to and zoomed with like the most all year yeah wow literally we ████ talk to each other the most yeah i'm trying to do more of the spot but nikki like you know he comes off as this bully and ████ anthony hater he is a bully actually the closest i love him but he's still a bully and i need you guys to keep dming joe specifically

23:41 and ████ put your foot down and don't let this bullying happening and i'm like you guys say that for me that's it you got a ████ full-grown adult he could stand up for himself he's a dancer doesn't mean he can't stand up for himself yeah he could pop a lot for himself he could ████ don't say your roly-poly for himself holy bully if anthony was fed up okay the mashed potatoes let's turn about me again signature moves cause to be honest right like if anthony was fed up he would challenge steve go head to head and he would get crushed we know who would win that's true that's true that's why there's there's no there's no rush to get the ████ out of here dude i'll probably just leave red bulls everywhere and he ████ get confused i think i pick everyone up and i drink them

24:33 all the way off a cliff i want to see that i want to i want this to be like a ████ fast and furious situation but like a dance-off right like you call out steve you're sick of his ████ right and you both show up ████ cars girls everything ready and you guys have a dance-off to settle oh wait actual real story wait wait actually you met mike's song in the dance can we talk for another video can we talk about that i think i've already talked about it here it's so ████ funny though because i can't believe it's right i finally explained to him how i met my song this morning oh yeah dude that's the best story it's so crazy jesus i can't believe that's real ████ it's saying okay yeah come on gonna give you guys this is a great special yeah this is really good okay the point is all right so um it's like 2004 i'm going to a freshman orientation incoming freshmen

25:23 have a student orientation at uci right um so before the school year starts everybody goes there's a three-day weekend and on the last day after you know a bunch of people like teach you about like school scheduling this and that different clubs last night there's like a dance but not everybody's a dancer and it's against 2004 i i not learned dance yet really i didn't start dancing until college however sea walking was the thing that i was in you know it's for them gangsters you know what i'm saying but obviously the wankstar over here in me i was such a ████ loser but i really wanted to ████ learn how to see walking do ████ this is this end of the ████ program dance there's a circle i get in because i'm trying to be i'm trying to express myself i'm see walking i'm i'm sure i look like a loser and i get to ████ tap on the shoulder i turn around the angus korean i've ever seen in my ████ life he's going ham on me right and i've never met mike this is my song

26:14 i've never met him before but he's just battling me i don't even understand battle culture all i think to myself is i'm not supposed to back down so even though my dancing sucks i still go ham obviously he's whipping my ass but then while he hits one of his rounds his shoe falls off and again i've never been in a battle so i don't know what to do i thought maybe the amicable and nice thing to do would be to go pick up this guy's shoe for him very nice however in a battle usually it would be assumed that the opponent would use that against the person right so mike song with his wonderful experience he looked at me and foreshadowed that i would use the shoe against him and my heart and in my intention i was trying to realize him i was like maybe i should show him that we're together in this and i'll give him that shoe as i go and reach over for a shoe he runs over and he kicks his own shoe outside

27:04 and i'm ████ mind blown because i wouldn't i had no idea how to humanly react to somebody like kicking their own ████ out of the circle and he's in a dance battle circle yeah he doesn't even know at the same time we're people going oh i don't know what they were owing at i just had no idea i was just mind blown like i was just going to give it to you this guy for sure is going to be my friend i don't know what that was but we had a ████ moment and that's the end of the talk after like how did that there's one more thing he likes to constantly bring up um there was a scavenger hunt uh before the end of the orientation and so you're involved in the whackest ████ all the time asian dance battles and then ████ scavenge ████ easter egg hunts you're involved in the black ████

27:56 anthony finish the story dude it's really not as good i i enjoy that joke more than the story yeah i really don't know uh i like to thank all of our viewers who stuck around for so many years we love you guys you know there's been many changes i i i understand things might not be the same but i can guarantee that with this vibe and with this crew we're going to give you some great ████ for 2022. and consider if you can ryan is a dancer too i don't know i'll take some considerate i'll share it in the yeah you can make fun of me we love you all and and and just to formally say thank you bart and joe there you go thank you guys [Applause] [Music]
