0:00 welcome back to an amazing episode of JK overtime I should say welcome back because we um we we were doing these for a while and then we stopped because they were taking a really long time we weren't getting paid so now we're going to do it again we're still not getting paid but I to ask I was like we're getting paid for this I'm not getting paid no one's getting paid that defeats the purpose it's called JK overtime because it's unpaid overtime it's do I get paid for this or I mean do I do I have to pay for this you are going to get an invoice in six weeks all right yeah cool can I put this on on camera that's going to be a net 90 by the way oh ████ today I'm with my buddy dietrix um it's good to see you man we're going to talk some really great ████ about our lives and uh how we met and how you hated me when you saw my face on the wall of your dance studio is that so that's that's as true
0:51 like this is an old story where um Dom told me that his dance studio put a picture of me on their wall why did they do that by the way well first and foremost was my high school dance studio and this is 2005 that means very much this is 2005 the the well they put you up because at the time well uh remember Dana right yeah so she was like two years younger slops MC's uh wife SL rhpc Dana yeah she was a huge fan of the show I'd already graduated but she was still in school and I go there to teach and on the wall is this Filipino K-pop Star before K-pop cuz your hair was like it looked like you got struck by lightning bro and I was thoroughly pissed because the ████ was well I had a picture next to it I had an 8 by10 oh you I never knew that I had an 8 by10 cuz there's
1:41 like like people that graduated like alumni I didn't know your but yours was not an 8 by10 it was the whole wall 24 by 36 I I don't know the exact measurements but that ████ was like triple the size and I was thoroughly upset for two reasons one now we're triple the size is that cool the picture was big but I was mad because I was supposed to audition in season 1 oh so think I didn't I was just really jealous so what happened was I I went on So Think You Can Dance in 2005 and um I was so good that they put my picture next to every B boy that was suckier than me yeah Dana worldwide Dana was obsessed with you but it wasn't it didn't stop there it was every girl and guy in that class uh was obsessed with you yeah that's funny cuz when I met you you didn't tell me that no because I was also obsessed with you
2:31 no so did you think how did you think I was gay back then oh purely yeah yeah yeah um I I was I was a big fan of being against homosexuality I didn't know that until I started sucking dick one of my favorite things is that when we finally like really hung out I think that was I think it wasn't until 2006 maybe late 2006 we had done a show up north and uh you were there and then like like it this was uh oh dude um actually this was probably early 2007 it was one of quest crew's like first collaboration yeah collaboration the Bay Area collaboration yeah and you were there and then we were hanging out outside on the grass after we took this photo I'll add it in we took a picture with you and it looks like you're our dad the one with Nikki T yeah that what
3:21 does he look like our grandpa that was a one that time that um we were like chilling on the grass out like at the back of the theater after the show and then you were like there was some guy doing flips some like randomy this was this was super de boy me and I remember the guy was doing flips and I asked you I was like cuz Steve's next to us right and Steve he's like Jesus Christ of martial arts like he created tricking right so I'm like hey uh that herb over there is doing back flip why don't you guys just put him in his place yeah you're like you let him do that you said something very Gandhi I remember at the time it was like the first time I was like whoa wisdom you like you said something like do not flip un to others but you would not flip to yourself oh racism party for one yeah um no you said you said something like you made me feel stupid and like I learned so much at the same time you said something like well if you already know you can do it then why do it and I was like wow sounds like a a
4:11 much longer version of the Nike slogan just do it or um no but um did you did you guys know and this this question is for you too Eris uh behind the camera uh did you guys know I already wanted to like get down at that point no dude I didn't think can knew he wasn't even born yet you were still Sean in your dad's no I didn't think because the thing was is I I thought you were so like you know that back then there were B boys where their track was just like I want to battle and battle only and I didn't think you were interested in doing shows like that I didn't even know I had no idea cuz most cuz back then The Stereotype was most people always hated that type of thing you know um plus we were gay and I didn't think you were gay well that's what I that's when I realized um no I I remember uh well I
5:02 think I went to like one practice before that Victor Victor took me to practice but even though I am a b boy I am also Filipino so it's in our blood to also do choreography and karaoke right so you you really didn't know I wanted to be in at that point I didn't I didn't know that that's like I guess I didn't know your your background and that you even did Coro like that I didn't know that cuz you I didn't know you were from a studio I didn't do so and dance yet did I or so I thought no not yet me and hawkk were still auditioning that's how we started really talking yeah yeah yeah yeah that's right and then you auditioned and then you killed it and then you did this sick uh there's a so it's called Wade Robson it's like A's move edit this out can are you editing this this where you cut can he hates this like and then you go to the next chapter after this ████ chapter dude you did so so good on so you dance are we doing that can I edit this actually you can edit it yeah do you have do you
5:52 have Premiere or cap cut iMovie we like neither of those ai ai editor um you did really good man you killed it that was dope thanks man yeah it was cool watching you going to the the tour show and everything did you go the oh you guys did go we went to the LA stop yeah oh yeah isn't that what we like after uh Hawk and I just found out about ABDC and I think we kind of came out to see you guys at the meet and greet after yeah and we kind of snuck it in there right like hey guys we we got a prep or did we was talk or something at that time yeah we just yeah we were talking about like getting together and like doing shows and ████ yeah do you remember the like I just kind of like just got down the night before the first audition for America's Best Dance Crew and we had one night to figure out not only this routine but how to become a
6:43 crew oh dude let's talk about that like like most people don't know that we tried out that Quest Crew tried out season one of ABDC most people every dancer ever tried out season one of ABDC that was such a stacked audition oh my God that audition was like you're kind of like a fan of everybody there yeah everybody was there and and everybody that we like looked up to for so many years was magically in some random crew Everybody had a crew yeah and then they that back then it was like it was so weird like we were standing in line I think it was at like the Debbie I want to say Debbie Allen Studio from I I don't remember I forgot where that was and then it was like in Silver Lake and then we were we would stand in line and it was so it felt so unorganized and like they were like oh we're going to shoot you guys freestyling in the parking lot real quick don't make noise cuz the neighbors will complain like
7:34 ████ like that and then we get in we do our uh our routine and then they're like we're going to test you guys on Coro so they taught all the teams a Coro piece yeah remember that and we had like what one hour to make it our own yeah isn't that so weird I feel like they didn't do that after that right no I would say that was probably the coolest audition I plus we've ever done and maybe the only one we've ever done but it was like it was crazy that that was like it was kind of a cool way to see what people did with it yeah and it was like napy tabs they taught us to like 48 counts and then we had to leave for an hour go make it our own we came back and I I think didn't we realize that we were the only ones that actually still did the Coro like a lot of the crews like kind of like a lot of b boy Crews were like yeah right we're going to blow it up yeah which I didn't I never realized that was a hidden option yeah don't do the audition do what you want we always were like oh
8:24 ████ I got to learn it but I didn't know that you could be like a a renegade like that yeah it was I thought we did really good though that was really fun but that sounds that sounds even like gayer than what we normally did Imagine like you they think you're could do the core you're like you know what hit it DJ and like the track changes and you just do your own thing that's probably so stupid it was really funny too cuz like there's like a lot of b boy like hip-hop B boys there and I remember them uh which crew it was but they like started the account and they all looked at each other like they mess up and they're like ████ we're just going to blow it up it honestly like doesn't never gave me any satisfaction to see that cuz like you know like we're competing against them but like we should be happy that they're like dropping the ball when Coro comes on but it's it sucks to see right to see your like Idol just go I don't
9:14 know like it's it's not like fun what was interesting too is that we all watched each other at the audition and most auditions you don't really audition in front of your other peers but this one was like everybody got shoved into that one big room it was very unorganized uh but it was it was a blast I remember that just the talent in that room it definitely felt like like raw everybody was trying to figure it out including the producers I wish we could get the footage from anything from That season for us that was really cool yeah it's probably Mega deleted by now but like I remember cuz I had hit this like we went to the parking lot to do solos and I hit this 2000 to a freeze which I never do and then you guys were couldn't make noise cuz we're in the parking lot and you guys all went we're like yeah and even even Dan sax who's recording was
10:05 like I was like give me that give me that footage yeah it was great and then we actually got a call back and they they wanted us for season yeah we made the show but they actually made an edit of the first episode they made remember do you remember that they' made an edit no and that's when they like when that's when we went oh at this point in time too I think half of us including yourself had had like one what like you had one year left of of University or college yeah yeah I had I had one more semester and that was like half the team Victor Fang and you guys all I mean we all quit everything but we didn't quit college you right so we all like committed to training these last couple of weeks months right to get ready for the show and then we get a phone call
10:55 when we all get to Sacramento that's a different that's a crazy story that's a whole another episode that's a bad story that's like I mean might as well just tell people about it because it's pretty ████ up it I mean that that's this is like a Victor main character story too cuz he was the most pissed I remember that we we had decided to uh put down everything we were doing and focus on preparing for ABDC Season 1 and um me and Victor had like fro Frozen our transcripts and we're like all right we'll come back to UCI like after this show and then um Dom is like yeah we can come to Sacramento and like train at this studio uh just drive up on this night and then we'll we'll spend some training time out here and then uh I remember it was like the craziest storm that like I've ever seen all the way from LA to sack like five six hour drive
11:47 and Victor was the whole time like I've never seen Victor so scared while like driving and then uh when we get there Dom's like oh by the way we can't do the show yeah we got we got a phone phone call so as of right now we're we're like getting ready for the show because we made the show and I guess like Nigel lithco or one of the producers called Dan Sachs who's the main producer of America's Best Dance Crew which they both worked together on S you can dance and he said uh Hawk and I were still on contract for a year and so we couldn't do any other competing TV shows or whatever isn't it like a it's a threeyear it's one year from the finale of the show oh okay and it was like competing shows so at the time there was no competing shows dance shows right so ABDC comes out and then we find out after you guys all dropped out of college that we can't even do the show
12:38 for another like year yeah and telling you guys that news as you walked in you handled it really well by the way I mean I was just glad compared to the jxap POS of uh how mad Victor was but overall you guys had both a right to be upset but also Hawk and I our combined IQ is negative zero I think we were just we were just pissed she didn't just call us and tell us well we couldn't cuz you guys were fighting for your lives on the road I don't want to give you guys more reasons to die that's true like um filming Blue Crush I'm laughing but I don't know the reference um right away I thought of the movie surfing movie yeah I know that okay I did get it okay um courtesy laughs regardless uh we tell you guys and then that's when they were like oh crap we got to get another crew in here yeah and uh we won't say which crew was was but
13:29 it rhymes with uh habis I I still don't know how true that is because I've heard rumors from different directions about that but like that means like they were so off with what would be a good crew if they really didn't think japa was going to be from what I remember and what I heard and this can be wrong it was just like I guess Randy Jackson Who definitely usually doesn't have an opinion even though it's his show I guess he didn't get the mask or something and I was like how they also killed it at the audition I remember had this moment we were like oh remember we were like who's in they're in these guys in yeah we knew who would be in it yeah we were like uh that's right cuz we knew we made it but we didn't know who else made it right um so that was yeah that was uh crazy yeah supposedly they didn't get picked first season initially and then us being
14:19 kicked out because of domond Hawk's contract they got put back in but I don't know if that's like that's just that's true that's just yeah that's just a rumor but regardless maybe we made that up to feel cooler yeah maybe this whole thing is made up maybe this whole world's made up um cuz I say the same thing about them in Vegas I'm like that was supposed to be my solo show but I couldn't do it regardless it's so like I think we would have tanked yeah and Jab is in pression on the show like that set the the path for everybody to be tuned in really I think season one we would have lost yeah I think we would have cuz we barely knew each other right we didn't even have enough ████ guts and we're not even close to friends tell each other hey we can't do the show right right in the middle of a of a stunt where we have to grab hands I'll just go hi I'm Ryan I'll be saying 6781 2 3 4 right
15:13 would you dive over I'm like who is that guy that's I'm going three four five still trying to count imagine doing interviews doing interviews having to talk about each other like how long have you guys know each other oh H my bad I'm Ryan sorry so dumb yeah it was I'm glad we did it much later yeah I mean cuz in when this happened I think the the cool thing is that we turned it into an opportunity we turned this situation like obviously you guys can't get back into your colleges but I remember at that time didn't we like commit to training for the next year and a half yeah for the next year we were like not only that but we we even said let's watch all the footage we can and figure out like how to like beat everybody yeah we were super nerds about it yeah we were nerds we were watching tape we were like those uh people that watch football
16:05 plays we had notebooks yeah we did we had a notebook of all of the different uh stunts that we had made and then we named them ████ that we couldn't remember why we called it that like what's the double headed donkey slide it was It was kind of nerdy but I love that we did that like we watched we overanalyzed every Show everybody's performance each even the s█████ ones and we asked ourselves why was that ████ which ones were s█████ I'm not going to name the Cru but you know who you are no we did we watched and I think what's cool is we found something in everybody's like performances like we could see why certain things didn't win and why certain things did that's why when I tell Anthony when he's like whenever he like gripes about us beating him I'm like don't worry that's the only thing we can do the only thing we do is win ABC's that's it yeah that's all in
16:56 the aspect of the timeline of all Humanity it only lasted like 5 years so it's not that cool yeah like that's it man don't be afraid of US unless another one comes around but yeah that was cool we did season 3 and uh did you tell me again throughout the whole season did you think that we would win the whole time no I thought we were going to be memorable that's really sweet no I no cuz I remember I think it was honest though didn't we I mean you already know this answer we all felt really defeated because we felt the pressure of like maybe we're not supposed to win so we were trying to like we' all did TV shows before and we know how powerful it is to like we knew that it wasn't about winning that it was about standing out like we hawk was known for every dance show but didn't win one at the time like everywhere we walked everybody knew Hawk he was people thought he was on shows he never even was on they like oh I love
17:47 you in CSI I loved you in Seinfeld so stupid no but it was like we I really thought like oh since we're not going to win let's let's just we train so hard always be memorable it was about being memorable and I and do remember that but that that kind of cursed us a little That We Knew Too Much About TV and like how shows work cuz we're always overthinking we're like oh man so season one and two they had like all dudes with like predominantly Asian groups they're not going to let a third one win we're more dude and more Asian than last time and also too we were huge fans of a lot of people on the show that was I think was the saddest part that was the saddest part remember because we because the community was so small we had people show up to the taping and we thought they were there for us yeah but they were there the majority freaks yeah they were there for be freaks I was like you're cheering but you're not making eye contact with me but the the the funny part is too and Aris I know you CU
18:38 you were obsessed with Reno still are probably but it was like one of those things where we were also fans of them yeah and we knew that like individually they were superheroes right yeah and really rich from all the Apple commercials they did but Al but it was like at together you're like what are you going to get out of that like they got the the greatest women dance team of all time do you know what that felt like to see beat freaks want to do ABDC at the same time as us was like let's say you worked at like Google and and you're going to try out for a promotion and you go to interview and your boss is trying to interview too and he's the guy interviewing and you're like what are you doing there's two can't be two of you Andy Steve Jobs yeah because it's like they were the ones that we would go to auditions and they would be on the other side of the table that's the people that are like running ████ yeah so I was so surprised other than shorty I was surprised
19:29 I'm just K I have to go out of my way to smoke Herz I love her she would love that moment cuz I love that girl shorty she she's so sick dude that was another person I was scared I was like yo this girl's crazy no one's seen her yet on TV like she was on I don't think we ever like cuz you know like I'm friends with with Lindsay B and we talk a lot about to this day she'll tells you Quest Crew are biters all the time she she messaged me that like last week when the ray gun ████ came out she wasn't wrong but then um good yeah she always say that but the the funny thing is you know like I don't think we ever told them like how much we broke down what each of them were capable of you know how we like we did the math on them and we're like okay she does this she does that if they wait a few weeks until they do this we're in trouble if they do it week two we're remember we were talking about like we're like oh the double heads spins yeah that's going to make a huge impact and we spent time we had we
20:21 both have head spins we're like how do we top that yeah what do we do yeah I have fast heads spins yeah we both have a lot of moves in common at different speeds it's crazy I'm so sorry for them they're like why is he ████ dying laughing right now that s███'s funny as ████ also your face when you said it was like this he's cuz I can't I don't even believe in myself I don't even yeah cuz like every move that me and Dom both do I always we always look at footage of us doing at the same time and I'm like I think I did more rotations you know what sucks too Ryan's always right that's the s█████ part but the but it's so dumb because either way we're both pretty whack at that moment it doesn't even the argument was double shoulder spins and then it was like week four yeah we decided to do them at the same time and no one clapped in the audience they were
21:12 just like all right so backspin cool dude dude no one clapped yeah we were like oh okay um man that was like that that week was a hard week Man actually every week was a hard week doing ABDC 3 yeah I mean yeah I mean we we've been talking about how much we overthought yeah you know we studied everybody we studied each person so we' created a lot of probably unnecessary worlds but I think it was also helpful it was also helpful to be aware do you remember that time uh right before the show started we go to Valley and who shows up is beat Freaks and it was us and be freaks maybe like a month they came to train at the same spot yeah Eris do you remember this what what did they even do stuff oh they were like doing like lifts and ████ no I think they were just trying like they were just trying moves right they were just trying like a lot of what I don't even remember that was that just trying stuff oh ████ that's tight you don't
22:02 remember that I really don't yeah you have a memory of freaking hit my head too many times that's pretty cool though yeah it was also like were we dogging them and ████ were we uh I think we were playful but we were also like I know for me knowing me yeah I always felt like everything was a battle you were off that night yeah I remember like every every time bro I was trying classic me trying to like show off and intimidate one of my favorite moments and like maybe you were I don't think you weren't there but like we told you about it we were in the van with them going to the studio from the hotel it was like beat Freaks and quests were sharing the van yeah which is crazy but like they were getting some conversations and I don't know how the topic came up but somebody started say yeah I think someone was pushing buttons and somebody said oh I think I think
22:52 lady jwes could beat drix and breaking and then no someone asked I think it was short she was like do you think you could beat lady jwes in a battle lady jwes is sitting right there right and I remember at the time I I'd like yeah are you ████ kidding me right also no I'd never seen lady Jewels battle but maybe once on PR yeah I remember like it turned into a lightweight argument too I was like it turned into argument because I think you said yes so calmly and I think that was insulting that you were like was and then and then um on their side they were like no Jules her fundamentals she would smoke you and they said it very like strongly so then I think in the van even the driver was like what the ████ like it was just like it made
23:44 like a debate and it got heated I remember that it was really funny to add on to the already heated buildup of us for stem right exactly which is like really really funny that so he gets a rehearsal on stage and my warmup was pretty crazy I think that was probably the best breaking it was this Quest we had like 15 minutes before we start rehearsal so we just had open stage and I remember that was another time Eris that like I got really mad and I just ████ I just remember going off meant nothing by the way there's not even music on it's funny because like even if like let's say there's a situation where all right when we get out the van let's battle then it's like literally they would think she won and we would think he won it would be split down the middle perfectly man that rivalry is just ongoing till today she'll smoke me today yeah we'll never know we you know what I think that's fair we'll just never know we'll never know who would win she would she actually would I'll smoke her
24:35 eating though ████ see me at ████ golden Crow Jewels D um remember how like what is it when um remember how they had that big ass Banner for Quest Crew like when we won the gigantic one that was like 30 feet yeah who has that it's gone oh you threw it away and our personal Banner that like was supposed to fall but you know ours don't fall it we kept both of those banners and then we used to have them in our studio after ABDC and then when they had us come back the next season for a guest spot they were like bring your banners we want to put them up again and then they never gave it back they kept it oh they did they kept both banners isn't that crazy wow the sabotage yeah it's so weird both of them both the big giant champ like what are they going to do with that it's just it just says Quest Crew Champions on
25:25 it Dy that's crazy yeah they took them that was really sad who has the trophies I have one of them and then HW hwk has the other one yeah valid and then um I think that's it who has the most Quest Crew Awards uh we did win a world choreography award and I think that is a sheet of paper which I might have can I get a copy we all got one oh yeah we all have one yeah there's no way that they're like sorry guys only one the freaking color printer broke like they're not going to yeah it's not actual gold it's not like like oh ████ it's another $1,000 per trophy remember how like yeah so like in terms of Quest Crew awards that like that world choreography award it's like oh that's so cool they gave us that but then do you remember when we
26:16 went there to receive it the I think one of the people we didn't know we're like idiots we don't know why these things happen but then the the guy was like hey congrats on the award this is like the guy that basically gave it to us yeah congrats I'm like oh thank you thank you so much for giving that to us so you think next year we'll get you guys on stage for a performance oh yeah and then we were like the first time we were like oh that's why like we thought we didn't know we were just like thank you for the for the thing it's a you know it's apparently I it's a pretty prestigious award in the dance industry yeah I've heard I didn't know that cuz that was the first time I was there I've heard from them you're an ████ I'm sorry I'm just kidding well it just because awards are like you know what's funny that night though I do remember every Dan that won an award they're like thank you like everybody was like what is this right because it was kind of it felt like it was new or something someone was up to something I'm just not good at
27:06 awards because I think we've won so many random Awards and just like nothing it's like awards are what you make of them right like how hard you Flex them is what what ends up being the payoff but we just don't care usually we don't flex wordss so then we're not we're not getting the use out of them you know like people wear them s████ on their around their neck we forget we got them that and you had to ask me who had the trophies like we ours didn't come with necklaces but yeah I'd be tired of it if we got a gold medal though like an Olympic one for Quest you wouldn't rock it to like the mall or something I think I would once that be I'd have to rock it once oh dude so this is one of my favorite memories with you is when um sorry she get the audio I'm so sorry we got the smello the um the one of my favorite memories is when we had just won season 3 and it was
27:57 like the next morning morning and I think me and you were like the last ones to go from the hotel that we had to live in for like months and then me and Dom were just standing like at the driveway of the hotel oh yeah and we were just looking at each other we were like what now dude we stopped and paused cuz it took yeah you remember how much merch we had Eris like everybody was trying to give us their clothes but we packed your car we could barely fit in there before we got in we got done and we looked at each other we're like oh ████ yeah what just happened we also took a long time to pack because I kept sneaking ████ from home to the hotel so I ended up with way more stuff than anybody I look like one of those like jail guys that probably ████ the guard I was like how do you have all your PlayStations here why do you need so many oh we had to we had to watch Save By the Bell college Years every night and uh Karate Kid so good so we were standing there and I just remember
28:47 looking at you and we were like dude we were like is the world going to be different yeah cuz we didn't know and we were like nah and then we went to the ████ mall oh me and the meet and greet we went to me and Dom tried to go to the mall cuz he wanted to get some obnoxiously flashy silver shirts cuz that's how we dressed back then Hardy on it yeah we were in closeted back then and then we went to Metro Park where you know where you do that you come out of the closet yeah you come out of the closet and there were so many like the first person that was like that even saw us it was a chain reaction and me and Dom couldn't even make it to the store I do remember you giving me a slight warning yeah or us a slight warning you're like should we go and I was like yeah why not I was like iffy about it cuz I'm like we didn't know how people thought we were living in a hotel for like months we had no idea that was our first time out in public and then it was like it was trippy right yeah that was a
29:38 cuz we never we still haven't gone into the store yeah we still haven't gone we still look like straight guys now we're just in a bigger closet we go in the store we come out people are like ew um that was a shock Factor yeah that like I think that was the first cuz we'd all been on TV before yeah but that was different that one was like we we couldn't really do much I think that was like the beginning stages of at least for me I don't know about for you but like being a legit like introvert staying at home like doing stuff oh okay yeah yeah yeah damn it's crazy because like back then I always I always like relate this to um social media now is is like with that you can quantify how famous you are in a way but then back then when it's TV it's like you're just guessing yeah or you just go out and you practice the actual method of like who's
30:28 going to recognize me you know what I mean and then you you watch it slowly dwindle and you're like hey guys come on come on I'm right here I still got it ████ still got it I got other ones now come on I got six Styles yeah it's it's just like so stupid that I got six you I hope you guys got a low shot of his feet did you see his ████ feet that's the most footwork I've ever seen you do it's hard because I'm an all styles dancer and I just can't I now I'm like a two minimum like I have I can't do one at a time which two styles are those locking and juking M Chicago and Memphis combined oh which one's locking on that that uh I don't think any of them geography oh got it got it got it uh fing in Memphis shuking that feeling of like the feeling of of being a I think we were such good boys too back then that we never like took advantage of being known I guess
31:20 yeah we were good we were good little Christian guys yeah you know and then it wasn't until our first Club event that we yeah we started ████ each other get a of this ladies yeah it was like uh get a this L I'm ████ my best friend Every Time I Think of like we we would go I I I wish I could count how many times we probably didn't know that like someone was trying to like get with us you know cuz I mean that's a lot of guys it's a lot of Agents should we share those stories Ryan because we were we were roommates yeah those times yeah there was there was some times no we're were pretty Christian majority of the time yeah we got a little Lutheran though some days a little sounds like you could go either way we got a little Luther inside
32:11 me sometimes pretty big Luther too yeah it was fun man I think I had a lot of my firsts with you in the room which is that sounded even more straight said nobody ever yeah man oh you know what you know what still is more fun than anything was to to go to different cities when we were touring for Quest Crew and to meet be boys that we looked up to that were local to that area and then watch them call us out and want to battle us gravity and then we go cry in the green room then we go back in the closet and cry no like freaking uh like remember daylight when we went to Minnesota oh yeah we we like freaked out dude yeah it's just like B boys that are so underground and like Indy to the scene and then for them to like know who we are is a bigger compliment than if what
33:01 was weird is that he was shocked as if we weren't going to know who he was yeah or like the time we went to Florida and there was like Club yeah Kevo in Jacksonville which there was no one at this club but like Kevo and his five homies yeah uh and um that was crazy to me yeah cuz Kevo was I'd met keville before too but just in case people might not know bway Kevo is timeless like he doesn't he's not as active today he still gets down but he's still like a pioner yeah really nice guy too really really uh smooth lips smooth foreskin too he would be like why the ████ are they saying that ████ nah he's Filipino he'd laugh oh yeah that's right he gets it he gets it you know what's cool too is that like those first shows that at least the first year of like doing Quest Crew shows and touring to have like crowds
33:51 like that was so crazy but because you had left cuz you quit I didn't you out you left kiding on that again no no no he um you missed I think the shows where it started to like die oh really you know what I mean you weren't there for the shows it was like I don't know D it was like ████ Kramer at The Comedy Store you know what I mean like just Google that or YouTube it if you don't know it's so good yeah like you weren't there for some of the ones that were like know Australia looked popping that looked huge Philippines looked crazy anytime we did internal naal shows popping because they were waiting a year to see that but then like we would just be booked on like so many shows locally that uh sometimes it just felt like why are we here bro like we and plus like I mean maybe after some
34:44 time like people just know everything you do yeah that you just want to do anything else even if it's whack which is what got me here yeah what was uh what was like after I dipped I pretty much became the out of my own it wasn't my choice yeah why is he laughing ████ up ER vou for me wasn't my choice I became you and me I had to do both of us so you were gay twice yes I ████ myself what better way to get to know my inner self than to jack myself off into my own mouth yeah like remember that one time you could have do a show Enlightenment and I had to do your solo remember that one time that that didn't wait you're talking I acted like you because you you couldn't do the show so on my solo I went at your slot and I acted like you
35:36 yeah and I remember it was dope as ████ yeah that's basically every show after that didn't you do um there was this uh the piano piece didn't you guys redo that and you do the head spins right but I had to learn like I had to train heads spins like really really hard I P90X headspins but my question was is if you're playing the piano while I was doing heads spins who's doing it didn't sound very good so D the circle if I if I did both the head spin and the plague no that was it was um so so orquestra which is our piece uh that we did the piano detri is head spinning on it um we someone had requested that this like I forgot what it was some kind of like big event had requested that we do that piece and they were like we want
36:27 you to collab with this like famous jazz musician this like really prestigious guy who's like supposedly really good and he's going to play and then you guys just do Orchestra around it we're like okay cool and then so I had to do your part the funny thing was that this guy we did a rehearsal with him right and he's like uh okay yeah we I know what to do I I watched your video I'll play These intro Parts uh Hawk will be the first person to come out and like do solo ████ and then um it's a little bit different where like Hawk comes down from I think the side of the stage and hits these like cues with his like the guy's gonna play random piano things like and then uh and then orquestra starts I come out right but we asked him we're like sir can you please play the
37:18 same thing that you're going to do for the show so that Hawk doesn't get messed up because if you change it our timing is going to be wrong for when we arrive etc etc the guy looked at us like say my first rodeo you know what's really funny well that was funny the last syllable you said um single syllable starting with the letter F rhyming with bag um keep that in K he he was like um but what's funny is that because you're like what like a level 10 pianist no I'm not nowhere near okay level eight this guy I could I could objectively say this guy's better than me apparently he doesn't know how to remember his track I don't think I don't think that was lack of ability I think that was lack of respect for us I think like he just didn't give a ████ oh so you knew that he was able to do it I knew he could but so then we do the like we do the rehearsal and he sounds like
38:08 he's sort of doing the same thing every run we do but then when we do the real show he just did some other ████ and you can see how pissed Hawk was well like that's what mad locking looks like like we were like when Crum Meats locking yeah we were like come on dude like why why would you do something different than so then like we just had to you know do our usual Quest Crew impro improvisation like figured out on the spot oh no but the headspins are is the in- out ones to the music what you so I could well by that point it's already time to go like he's playing along with our track at that point so it's okay but then I'm doing your headspin part and then I realized how hard that is to not like let it scare you but you'd already practice on it what kind of piano do you have a baby grand or a full Grand dude it wasn't even a piano so it was a it it was a saxophone it
38:58 [Laughter] was it was a ████ um it's the piano the grand it's a full Grand but they had built like a platform to to be like slightly over it almost like a it's a piano shaped platform over a piano just so they don't ████ up the piano so it's literally now you see it now you see it and I I did it on the platform because the piano itself was so nice that they didn't want us to like ████ it up cuz SP so fast so then I started doing them and then as I'm doing I'm like I couldn't do yours where you literally go faster like this and like slower I was doing that but I wasn't changing speeds damn you're just going fast what the hell same speed my good for absolutely nothing yeah and I realized how
39:48 difficult that was I'm like damn did they uh they WD40 it I sprayed my my beanie yeah okay do you remember when we performed on AB DC uhhuh they didn't tell us that they were going to WD40 the piano so I found out live so whatever shot that was filmed I found out ████ first pivot that first 90 degrees I was like my hands are slipping so I was so worried about slipping off cuz we had never done it with WD40 can you imagine if you fell off dude that's why that's why like the in- outs actually look pretty like they're the best ones but my stop is very soft it's not like a clean like I remember like wanted to get like control myself I was so scared canot believe how dope it would be if you fell off and how quickly I have to cuz I would have to so quickly take his place and it would be so sick and then I would
40:39 have to switch over and play cuz we he'd have to fall off my side and we'd have to go like this an over under switching yeah dude that was a legendary Night dang so you guys redid it the guy just played you guys yeah I mean it's not as bad as it sounds but it was just like funny to that you never got to because we we did how many pieces like over and over and over but we had never done our equester again other than that one time oh which is pretty interesting was kind of like romantic about that though is that was your idea since like I've met you you've always wanted to do like a live music dance piece that's cool about and you know what else we used to talk about doing uh sing sing the uh the swing set oh yeah yeah we used to talk about that too the charity or chamon charity yeah that was probably my favorite set yeah Cherry Champion Cher Cherry it's a new flavor at Basin Robins you say new favor we're both don't know
41:31 how to talk give us captions this day one English English is difficult yeah we um we did the uh we a lot of our our shows were like old ████ sitting around saying dumb ████ to each other has Sparks by you though but then we we always had like I think we had some really stupid ones that yeah like the scientist set that no one's ever going to see Ever okay so let's talk about our least favorite Quest show is it that one ████ that was my idea ████ is the scientist set your least favorite that was me and Hawk we'll both go down and Flame cles but then that's not it doesn't count because we were still under the so you think curse that b boys go through oh yeah you think you're a dancer after after every B boy after they do so you think thinks that they now have unlocked all the Styles mainly ballet and contemporary and they think they're the first one to fuse ballet and B boing AKA we're just emotional beings that try to move slower to slow R&B
42:21 music right yeah exactly so that's afterwards you start making pieces a little differently and you lose the thing that people like in the first place which is crazy when you look at how many people are on there Lydia and we're not doing anything we're known for doing really no I'm so happy no one knows really about that show at all I'm so glad it's in 144p that you could barely even see it if you could find it yeah yeah I really I I hope to delete it someday there was there was good moments What's one of your least favorite live shows that we've done that's not on TV that's not on TV yeah I'll tell you which one mine of yours the least favorite live show that's not on TV I'll tell you which one is my least favorite that you did okay go ahead I'm nervous 50th oh wait no Union City anniversary show you and Hawk I remember being so mad at you guys cuz we were at the park
43:11 and you were trying this like stupid catapult move where like you kick somebody's body up and the other guy catches it and then I think you guys never hit it never and I was like don't put that in the show you haven't hit it is it our didn't we do it our freestyles yeah and then you guys are like no we're just going to game time it we're going to kill it when it happens yeah the least favorite but it's a great place to say ████ it and just try something and did we fail every single time we did it yes and what what we learn from that not to ever do it again therefore it was never on a real show after but like you know usually we're pretty good at playing off when we mess up tricks no this one you can't play off this one you can't yeah but the good thing is that I was bottom and Hawk was top and um you can't it just looks like Hawk messed up but then like if you if you look at the video he like looks at the like it's the office after it like fails from what I remember though he
44:01 almost hit it yeah almost if that is not your least favorite show that's funny if standing up after a trick instead of going into a freeze is hitting it yeah I'm pretty sure he grabbed his stomach too like oh he was like selling it like a wrestler yeah like we ████ him up even on there's there's like grass footage of us trying it yeah yeah there was grass footage ████ him up yeah that that's pretty hard the idea is that we just basically we catch Hawk like he's a plank on his stomach and then I catch him with my feet and then I kick him over to someone else's feet so he goes he lands he goes oh and then he kicks him over to other people's legs and he goes oh and he just and he bed speaking in tongues I've never heard a whole crowd go huh would make the same sound hwk did H and they're like a but you know what you saved the night because after that you took the mic and like randomly we we would always just
44:51 try to get you the mic at shows and then you started hitting on the security guard that was like in front of the stage remember that no I think I do my family was there too I was trying to make them laugh there was like a security there was like a woman who was like you know like every show there's a security person like standing at the pit right in front of the stage and you were just like Miss security and then she was just like looking around like who's cuz her back is to you so you're just behind her like oh yeah and the audience was like they make the same noise that they did with Hawk oh but they're like ah they thought it was like the fun dude that footage there's footage of that too dang all right trying to save the day with uh hitting on women that's doesn't sound that he it does it doesn't count because you couldn't even see what she looked like you just saw hair I saw yeah could have could have
45:41 been Hawk with his braids out for all you know he landed below stage after we kicked him and I'm like oh excuse me landed below put a uniform on it to play it off I work here I wasn't in the show dude I hella remember that show though that was your least favorite no I just was the first one I could think of that was nice flirting my least favorite shows that we did live I don't think you were there my least favorite shows were always when the camera was running oh yeah that's right this fool did a single instead of a double k would you ever my go Ken would you ever do something that dumb K don't answer K's been through ABDC he's trying to get allies don't listen all right so what happened is we had a show this is when we this is when we went back to defeat kjas easily for season 8 we did the uh we were doing our second week Dom is supposed to end the show with a double track you know like a coin dve double
46:33 right on TV it was a single why the ████ had what happened why would you do that first and foremost on the taping it was a double but whoever was editing realized it looks pretty much the same so he put rehearsal footage in oh he put rehearsal footage oh okay I thought he did you know it's rehearsal don't stop ████ with me I thought he did special effects don't be an ass for the camera yeah yeah we so what happened is like for some reason and they did that to Super Crew as well when we went back for ABDC they would use rehearsal footage if they messed up on the live shot the the irony though is is I didn't mess up on the live shot it was a great shot but we saw it I think they messed up their like camera thing or there was well it's safe to say it looks the same that's what I realized looks same a double and a single is the same ████ you move on the next that's why in and out only has a single
47:23 burger cuz it's always the same let's talk about going back to ABDC because that's one of my favorite things was the call that I got the call I got from Dan saaks when he's like we thought ABDC is behind us the show is finished yeah we didn't know TV was still on they still they for some reason were like after porotic they're like yeah I think that's all the Cru and then um and then they we get a call from you know Dan sax he was like the main okay all right cut cut out that whole thing Ken the um cut out your cuta away that never got cut so Dan calls me Dan Sachs this the name of this guy is very significant in our lives because when we did so Dan season one he was like a normal regular producer by this point he was like VP of like Warner Horizon Warner Horizon yeah so he he calls me and he's like hey how crazy
48:14 would this be if you did one more show with your boys we were against it you and I ABDC yeah and I was like what the is this real he's like we're bringing it back and I'm like no ████ way way he goes Allstar all the Champions against each other jab walks Quest jab walkies porotic and Jab walkies I'm like no ████ way jab was going to do that and then we we brought it to the crew and we were like do we want to do this and you didn't at first we didn't at first I didn't either no cuz we started like we were full-time YouTube we were making full-time content and it didn't make any sense also we don't really dance at all at this point except to make each other laugh yeah that's true and so when it first got brought up we were pretty much we already settled on not doing it yeah
49:05 cuz especially after we call Jabba walkies and they're like what we didn't yeah they named us three times we're not even doing it once I think the only issue I think that was it because if Jabba is not doing that there's no point because we can beat every other crew very easily yeah sorry pack take that I me I'm just kidding I'm just kidding I'm only saying it cuz cat's in the room I'm just kidding I really wanted you guys to be there by the way Ken I really wanted porotic to be there that's a whole another podcast why word have gu on yours when you talk about that but yeah so we we didn't want to do it at first and then what changed our minds we went to a meeting with nappy tabs and then then he convinc us more crews were doing it I am me we are heroes and we're like are they and we were texting pack at the same time and he's like what no we're not yeah he was like they were like naming Crews that were like he's like Beach Street Bronx rockers will be there like what the hell I just remember
49:58 uh we left that meeting we came back and had a meeting with the guys and Hawk said one thing that made you and I both kind of hype that is true yeah and and it's the one quote in our crew that kind of will get us hype to do anything God Save the Queen why does he sound like a dwarf God Save the Queen I can't do the accent at all all I'm ████ it up um he said would what if we just did it to make dope ████ that was it that was thep sh that was the line yeah what if we just did it to make dope ████ the dope ████ but we instantly went from 100% no to 5,000% yes yeah that was that was crazy I mean it's might be stupid to hear because it's not normal but I remember at the time we only had two months to get ready which is pretty common for the I think normal most Crews take two months but
50:48 for us we're like no we spent a year and a half the last time we need at least like so we try to bust ass quick yeah that was that was harsh but then didn't we when we we heard that kingas was doing it how did we I forgot what we felt that made it that made us feel weird but it also made us want to do it more we didn't get Jaba and that was like a huge part but when they locked in kjas and uh obviously the other Crews that kjas gave it like a you know what we're not supposed to win this one because no one knows what they're all the ████ they've been doing isn't that funny how they felt about it CU I was like oh ████ they're they're pretty much good to win this because they're the only story that stands out that's where thought again somewhere the first time we did it I thought we were just going to go for being memorable again cuz I actually thought we were going to lose well one I'm like we're fans of kingas we know all the heat they already have they have like Decades of work in that
51:38 group yeah um so I and then they were also just killing it week after week but that was like I think that was an incentive too we wanted to make dope ████ yeah and we were kind of like because we were so well like still well known and kind of going on the show and probably being one of the groups that is still the most known it kind of put us in a weird like because were supposed to we're kind of underdogs again cuz we're not supposed to because we felt like we were supposed to Classic Asian brain games yeah Asian brain games Asian brain games that's right I remember going through that whole thing that was so confusing but it was like an online vote and we just told all of our followers to vote for us and they didn't even watch the show and they voted for us extremely it was extremely simple yeah it was very easy just vote online you didn't watch the show don't worry just vote dude I was talking to Anthony the other day I said something like I didn't realize how funny it was till I got home I was like uh we were talking about how we I forgot what we we said to each other but I was
52:28 like no no no this was like during like week two when you guys still thought you were going to win and then I was like I just kept talking and then he was just looking at me like you know Anthony's face his face for everything and I was like oh ████ that's pretty funny cuz he's like we never thought we were going to win but it's funny because we thought they thought they were going to win we were like oh they know they're so sick I just remember um it was always like a joke but it kind of like it was real I remember like week three Anthony came up to us and he was like hey uh dietrix can can you ask for you guys to have a like a cameraman so we could have our cameraman because they won't let us have a camera guy so if you guys can ask for your guys a camera guy then maybe we'll give us a camera guy so we asked if Eris can be our camera guy and they're like yeah so then everybody got a camera guy and I was like I thought it was a joke but maybe it's kind of real it's for fairness yeah so yeah cuz if one person has it then everyone should damn I was
53:19 like I remember when we started filming our road to like you know to the championship and stuff I was like I always get scared for something like that cuz I'm like what if we don't win what the that footage is going to suck the good thing is no one was watching at all so it worked out that's true dude do do you remember the uh what happened between like kjas and Quest like towards the finale like you wrote like Anthony said something online yeah and you wrote something to him we talked about that on their on their podcast too it's pretty funny it was it was because your following was so so much stronger than anybody else there I think they were all intimidated by it rightfully so but then uh we did like a campaign thing where we had all these famous people say vote for Quest and it's like so star studded and so crazy but then like they did a campaign against our campaign basically
54:10 saying please help support kjas we're no match for DX's YouTube following and like it made it sound like oh we're only going to win because of that like were it obviously the real reason but I wanted I wanted to feel like validated that like come on at least we are killing it you know I remember you said something it was very poetic the way Ryan writes he's so good at like being wrong but writing it to make it right you said something like don't let your fight to win be at the cost of like or what' you say I think Martin Luther King said that yeah it start off with I have a dream and then he said don't to spit on my ass and take the first place place yeah I said um I I can't I remembers what I said at the end because I think I wrote I wrote an email to or a
55:01 text to I think Anthony cuz I was I was legit pretty bummed out about it cuz I didn't know that they saw us like that I was like dude I thought you guys thought we were tight I didn't know you thought it just because Dom's got a a lot of followers but then that isn't what they felt they were just kind of like they were just trying some clever cheeky thing they they didn't mean any harm it it was kind of it was actually kind of it was actually really funny but then I thought it was like I didn't like how it made everyone else feel you know so then I was like hey uh I just I wrote this long thing and all I remember is at the end I put uh I feel like you're disrespecting us out of fear or something oh something was you did the pun off of like the respect all fear respect all fear none yeah don't be your he said don't be the fear and respect all Bar
55:51 None and I and I typed it exactly like that so it was all jumbled up bar can you imagine writing that and then hitting s and you you just think you're the ████ you're like yeah yeah I think that's I just and then like the next morning they came up to us and they were like sorry guys it was super adorable they're like we were just we were being idiots sorry they like lined up like a like a little league baseball game you have to shake hands and they like came up to us they're like sorry sorry sorry I was like ████ love these guys man hey let's talk about I think this is a really interesting thing but uh going back a little bit remember when you first wanted to do YouTube 2010 yeah yeah yeah we we had like met up I think Ryan hea was hanging out with us at like a freaking uh Auto Trader show that we did yeah and then I
56:43 remember you told me this one thing that was really interesting you were like you said uh Ryan was like hea was telling me to um to do YouTube and I was like I don't know and then he showed me his bank account back balance and I was like hell yeah no it was like uh did he really do that that was way that was way later I didn't well at that time that was early 2010 I didn't even know I was going to make YouTube it was until like late 2010 early 2011 that um the story went is I you actually the first person to show me like smos and I didn't know at the time that YouTubers were even making money making videos uh but yeah I remember like we were doing TV I get kicked out of quest how the hell did that happen I don't know I think their IQ is smart and I was just stupid um but uh
57:37 yeah and I remember we came off the shows but Ryan was talking about how I would do well for like on YouTube and he and he predicted he's like that this will be the future of like of a lot of jobs just like social media and the internet and he I mean he was right but I told him I was like no I like this is like the first year that we were making like six digits as a professional dancers which is like unheard of and I was like oh no and then like I'm happy where I'm at you know uh dancing what not and he did make a point and he was like yeah but don't wouldn't you need the next TV show in order to Showcase your work and I was like that's kind of true and he's like if there was a platform where you could make you know money and then control the aspect of what is reality for you and what do you want to do YouTube like you should do YouTube and I was like H and he goes we also make money and I was like okay I'm making six digits right I don't have six digits by the way I have like two digits
58:27 in my bank account but I made it and he was like okay don't tell anybody I'm going to show you this but I'm going to show you my month of December oh he only showed you the month he showed me one month of December and I think it was like his 2010 December and he just showed me the number and it made it looked like my account number it looked like my social security number um and I was like oh ████ and I just bought a 7D camera like that is that is that number like I don't want to you to put that out there but is that number if you saw it today still impressive yeah all that it's still impressive today wow it's it's pretty impressive uh one you got to remember a couple things Ryan heo was number one at that time he did do like multiple brand deals that
59:18 month but it was like I was like oh snap but overall the biggest aspect of it was the fact that I could share and connect with my audience that was a huge part of it obviously money is there but like when you come from ████ nothing everything's there so it's like I'll take whatever I can get but that was like impactful of knowing that like yeah we have to wait for MTV to come out with America's Best Dance Crew that's going to be 2015 and that time but yeah and uh damn so so Quest didn't want me yeah we didn't want you I'm the victim here yeah there's a there's such a thing as to gay I suck too much dick so I went on YouTube no that's like I think like that was probably the one of the biggest like what a a really cool outcome to happen from like cuz I think if you like stayed
1:00:08 with Quest it would have held you back honestly like it held me back so I'm just kidding I'm just kidding who who knows what that who knows what that would have been though because I feel like well I remember at the same time we were just pretty much fulfilling the path that Jabba walki just got done painting well we just made we were making stupid rules for ourselves I think was the biggest problem yeah is like for I mean I get it like we would have to all be really committed to do these shows not really when you really think about it you know like it wasn't I think commitment was more of a mental thing than it was like physical like we could still kill it if we you know we just have to have better rehearsals that don't take 12 hours where we're sitting around sucking dicks it's it was just that our discipline was just very like different but that's what made it special and I think we didn't want to lose that yeah we didn't want and felt like we were getting further from that the more we
1:00:58 had to think about numbers and money so it was kind of like if someone wanted to pay us to do it yeah we'll get ready a show ready but it's kind of like right um but who knows man it could have been there's there's we could have made a a quest only but at least it allowed you to like Focus entirely on building your YouTube thing and that was like it went up fast your yeah mean I got really I got really lucky being Ryan mentoring me Ryan May Ryan mentoring me on YouTube so here you click upload right and you sit back no Ryan was very uh especially at the like um beginning peak of his career was very nice enough to help me out like back then you can like you can like someone's YouTube video and they'll get followers from your like like it was remember that time it's nuts like you can leave the comment you can leave
1:01:49 uh in the comment and the joke is crazy cuz like you'll just get hell followers from it remember you guys you guys had figured out by the time you were doing ytf you had figured out this like almost like a cartel tactic where like if someone of your tribe had uploaded a video everybody would like and comment and engage with it and it would like deliver huge results yeah we had this thing where like there were six of us in ytf and our goal was to always maintain being on the front page to be seen whether for whatever reason so we did a lot of collabs and then we had you had one call a month to the guys like hey can everybody like this at this time wow or like comment on it and it was like very helpful because we were just trying to grow each other totally forgot about the YouTube front page remember that there was a yeah there was a for you
1:02:40 Page crazy to think but that page was powerful that's how you anybody got new viewers so it's like yeah that was that was a very very big deal that's so C like you guys were the first ones that I saw almost gain control of it in a way we it was pretty there was one time it was like December 2011 this is when like ytf was like really going like moving forward with it and we had uh two videos on entertainment top two videos on Comedy and then two videos in music so we were all over Dam and you want to hear the the the plot twist is crazy that I remember in 2012 we started all getting knocked off by this terrible thumbnail of this like 13-year-old like Mexican Portuguese chick that did makeup and it was
1:03:30 Beth that's what's crazy that's when Beth started blowing up and she was knocking us off our own like she was on every category and we're like yo what the heck who's this little 144p ████ bad quality video chick smacking you I was blaming Ryan at the time smacking you off Ryan like you know like like what and I I just remember that and I was like yo this this girl is taking over yeah because she was like the innovator of that style yeah yeah like the the beauty life Beauty Halls makeup Halls DIY dance hall thanks K Smash the Place watch me do the makeup actual dance hall ████ music it's crazy her yeah isn't that crazy wow what an ████ I know that's you guys oh yeah who was all the ytf guys ytf consisted of Ryan hi
1:04:21 obviously Kev Juma Chester C Jr Kino Andrew Garcia and myself and Victor Kim but also initially had David Choy and Wong Fu but they were smart and they decided to do their own thing what's the ratio of like how many people ytf are now like depressed actually I meant you're you're the main one you're the saddest no comment how does it feel to see like because you know like you guys were touring together and then at this point it's like straight to the point it's been so spread far apart that you ever like go hey guys we should come back together I am the guy that tries to do that yeah I I I try to maintain or I tried for a very long time I still do like Al I think the last like
1:05:11 group message I sent and got no replies was probably 2019 2018 um but it was like individually I still try to keep and I think everybody has maybe like a little bit like they might connect with someone but it's when you see like a Kev jump a monk video do you do you just reach out to it like yeah I'm like I need that Enlightenment what happened to you man no the opposite I'm like a I need that you jealous you dislike I'm like a and uh yeah Andrew Garcia and then W fu yeah that's crazy I never realized that Wang Fu was part of for an eight count they were smart they were like we're successful on our own I mean they are pretty pretty well I think it was just like a natural they were they were so busy because they oh they're like a legit company they're so like wholesome and great and we love
1:06:01 them so they're so fun to make fun of because type of guys you make fun of them they'll laugh at no matter what they're so perfect we always talk about going to the you know how they have like a cafe yeah I've never been yet yeah oh we we always talk about going there and just all taking s████ at the same time and leaving not buying anything that's really well thought out yeah we never leave your own Boba our time our our Cycles are off though so we can't sink them but yeah I love W Fu guys man they're the greatest that's like the third best thing to happen to the Asian Community after one and two do you consider yourself a person of the Asian Community I'm in the ETC Community cuz you're kind of part of every Community I think it's because my DNA is literally all over the place's name it again all of the things that you're made up of I I did a 23 and me holy ████ did they
1:06:51 charge you extra yeah it was like it was 72 in me um what the ████ 72 it comes back a different brand yeah it's a different brand ancestor.com it becomes a collabo between all the ancestry.com and 23 me it's all styles it's uh yeah I took the 23 me did not get the results back let me guess first and you tell me yes or no Native American y Filipino y Mexican which is Filipino yeah yeah which is like yeah uh Portuguese yeah French not as much Mexican again though but uh French I don't know Spanish I am Spanish but I have a lot of German and Irish which maybe there's french somewhere because there's like you know it's kind of similar in my racist mind you you're like 10 things on I'm more than I'm
1:07:41 definitely more than 10 holy ████ cuz Filipino alone is like that DNA is already everywhere yeah uh but yeah my my grandpa alone had like seven different things what was it like ending up with BAS basically three dads in the Final Act um uh you you think it's because they equally care about me the same which is not at all it works out so the crazy thing is is let's talk about your how did it happen so your your dad your original dad my OG Dad one dad he bounced yeah yeah yeah at age pretty much zero day it was like negative 50 he he like I had like I had a month and a half to go before I was born he like he basically went this way when his sperm went that way yeah yeah
1:08:32 he he was smart he was like this baby he could feel that it wasn't the right one yeah he could feel in his nuts and when he let go of he's like oh freedom I got to get out of here oh it's responsibility ah leave me alone and then your mom got married to uh bonio Del Toro yeah Prett much that was your stepdad growing up and that's the guy for some reason looks the most like you but what's also great who's 62 though and I'm 2 six 2 six I'm like Dan DeVito and he's Arnold Schwarzenegger from twins if anybody's old um but no uh so he's my stepdad technically yeah but he adopted me at an early age that I wouldn't remember so I grew up thinking that he was your AG that this tall Shaquille O'Neal Mexican guy was my dad
1:09:23 and then there was like a certain point in time when my height stopped at his knees and I was like and he kept getting taller yeah I was like well dude it's so funny how much you look like that guy that's not your real dad yeah I found out when I was nine but what's weird is that like he wasn't my stepdad and like what stepdad actually adopts the kid like that's just weird oh what's more weird is that I grew up thinking my name was Conrad Pete Dominic Kyle Sandoval wow I told this right yeah selfish so when I got adopted when I was two apparently they got the papers wrong oh and I got his name but so every first day of school up until about college which I didn't go to they're like okay is a CP sandal here
1:10:13 and all my homies like ████ corpal sandal sir why would they think oh my God Conrad Pete so when I got my license and that's when I changed it to just Dominic Kyle sandal less syllables you didn't want like a really long license no they would have to print out two sticking out of your wallet so then after and then also I would say your uncle who's Big D was a father figure as well yeah yeah and you you know him too I ████ love him he's the he's the best I love him with all my heart he's one of the greatest ████ guys on the planet yeah he taught me I'm I'm pretty much just a knockoff version of him like there's Pepsi and then there's Shasta and I'm like Diet Shasta oh you're definitely not diet Chasta I'm fat Chasta F this what why does this have twice the
1:11:03 calories for no reason dude would that sell imagine there goes my brand deal fora ████ but the crazy thing is if people knew like if they would meet Uncle D the the humor is so obviously from him yeah he's funnier though dude the fact that this like this dude would send you recordings of his farts that are just like there's a there's a video we did called hand fart kill y it was a series and every fart sound on there is one of 227 sound bites that he took on his own and they're like legit uncle Dom farts I probably owe him a check those are like and they're like movie quality farts oh they're solid like that's not your average they're so good that even the SAG number that's so good sag number each one of those each one of those are on strike now
1:11:57 ████ bars dude that escalation and creativity is so good and then you have once your original dad came back into your life oh yeah I feel like ████ got really fun with him yeah he's he's ████ great man that he he like we've had a relationship since I was like 21 like kind of getting closer and I've already accepted like he's he's Dad yeah but he hasn't accepted his dude you you smoke him so hard though no I stopped though dude you'd be proud of me like the last 6 years I've been giving in and him pump it from the back ████ sick you love it though I I do like black I pe's what the the um no but like he I think there's a part of him that he hasn't forgave himself so he still treats me like I'm I'm hating on him it looks so fun to watch you ████ around with him because like you like in the beginning especially when he first was back in your life and you would just
1:12:48 make so many jokes about him leaving and him not caring and and him not like and he would try to like play with you but he's like clearly hurt by it too yeah I I realized that he can't really say anything you know it's and it's like um I would have to say out of all of my 18 dads he's definitely like the most wealthiest you oh really and so like anytime we go out like he'll pay for everything and so like he will not let me pay for anything I kind of like it to be honest yeah that's great it's like about time remember when he you asked him to be in a YouTube video reason why I shared that but I don't know why there was this one scene you asked him to do for one of the videos that we did where you you go okay okay Dad you just stand over here and then just say I will always be there for you son and then he said his line and then uh we shot you going really and then his
1:13:38 next line is no he says he goes he goes no and he disappears and he Fades out dude that was the that video is so ████ funny yeah I think dud he's such a good sport man he he he kind of has to I think any dad that comes back they really have to just take it that's going with it like he he is not whatever I don't know what it is but like there's something with like a dad trying to come back and not forgive himself for making up time so he just feels like he has to constantly do everything like a dad would so he'll still teach me about like my my career even though I make more money than he does he'll still want want he do those bad things you know like oh that's why I was like yeah he pays for everything but he still gives me like wisdom as if I'm like still learning how to like shave my ████ or jack off or something it's a long overdue the the coolest thing uh was when I first saw videos of you as a
1:14:29 little kid and I saw how your stepdad talks to you I was like that's ████ funny this dude is Hell mad at you and how there was like three of us Brothers but he only was telling me to stop there's a video fuing racist like he got these Dom has these white twin brothers and then they're all like ████ jump like he put a camera up and they're all jumping around in the living room and then his stepdad comes in and just goes Dominic that's enough the ████ only him and he's not even doing it the best and is and but the thing that you're trying to do is pretty funny he kept trying to do jump kicks and have his ass come out of his shorts remember that to make the shot yeah cuz yeah I was trying to get it in the shot and then he kept going my smoke is too big he's like Dominic stop ha my other R Sons keep going it's like a ████ fat man scoop song now drop now drop now
1:15:21 drop if you're one of my real sons put your hands up and up that's not fat man scoop at all but this fart is uh can we get a sag number for that one oo smells like dick the the the funny thing too is your stories about your stepdad one of my favorites the chocolate milk stories are going to be one of the most infamous scarred forever man yeah the fact that he wasn't allowed to make chocolate milk at night I grew up different it's like a weird road sign no chocolate milk past 900 p.m. it was it was 10: and I waited till 10:15 like an idiot and I went downstairs I had to go very slow downstairs you like when you uh your parents bedroom like usually their window goes out to outside and they have that but they also have a window that goes in the one that's up
1:16:11 stairs that looks over you seen it you've seen it looks like a sniper Nest yeah walking down those stairs though to get to the kitchen I was like I'm going to get caught I'm going to get caught and it wasn't even that I walk down the stairs I make it safely into the kitchen after 45 minutes and then about minute 50 I finally got into the pantry the furthest away in the house you can be from that window and I pour the milk throw the little chocolate you know little powder in there get the spoon this is where you have to be careful you're like playing Operation with it yeah yeah yeah now mind you before I start stirring I should give you the backstory he has to wake up by like 6 and if he gets woken up in the middle of night he gets ████ pissed right and then we also have a rule that if you're not home by 10 you just can't come home at all so that is an option I could have went outside right but I decided I was like I'm G get away with this we're cool and I put the little this spoon big actually a big ass
1:17:02 spoon in there and I'm next to the ████ rice trying to tuck myself in this Pantry I go horf and then I hear like a I like okay it's just the ████ rice my foot my foot is the rice I keep going I'm like ████ it and I here I was like and I hear ████ God himself just start walking down the stairs cuz the Pantry's Under the Stairs and then it ████ crescendos like I freak out right so I put the chocolate milk in the rice bag right I put the chocolate milk in the rice bag and I see one of my mom's like little chef little ████ ties whatever the little condom for chefs whatever and I you know the thing they put around their body like an apron apron and then I take that and I put it over the rice bag which is kind of stupid I could just
1:17:52 fold it yeah yeah yeah but I was like I don't want to see the rice bag and he opens the door so now I'm just standing there you're in you're in the pantry now I'm in the pantry lights on in the pantry there I mean it's process of elimination either he's fat trying to find the spam jacking off like a weirdo cuz he's caught me doing that or why does the rice bag have this apron on it and it's like I swear I was like so ████ he goes you making chocolate milk he did give me a warning like don't make chocolate milk at night ████ wakes me up right you make and I was like nah what are you doing in here nah right he reaches his hand across my face I was like he goes to apron's like I was hoping that the milk somehow disappeared deep into the rice pulls the apron and a big ass glass of chocolate
1:18:44 milks right there with the spoon sticking out by the way the apron had this point in there you could see the spoon sticking out so it's so obvious he goes what the hell is that and I was like nah no it's not get the ████ upstairs I told you no more chocolate matter of fact no more milk no more milk as a whole you know how many things have milk that's very hard to do yeah no he just said no more chocolate milk and I got banned from chocolate milk from like age yeah like 14 forever I still can't I still fre out was at age 14 now cut to this the guys stay at my house while we're training in Sacramento right oh yeah remember that and you could see the old anchors of my childhood come back guys even though they said we can stay here and watch movies ████ be quiet that was my favorite thing because we didn't know at the time why he was like that we went to his house this was like 200 I
1:19:34 think seven or eight yeah and we were like oh there's like four of us maybe we're like oh you want to watch Matrix Hawk hasn't seen Matrix let's watch Matrix so we're watching it you know Matrix has really quiet times where the ████ Neo what do you want to do and then like really loud ass gunfights so every time the the the action sequence would start this fool would get was scared get the remote turn the volume down he would like look up like this and we're like what's wrong dude it's just it should be fine right and then every single time he and then but his dad would come down and be like you guys having fun everything's cool like he'd be like the coolest guy yeah so that's what happens when you ████ make it on TV and you pay his bills he was so nice and I'm like why are you scared they seem like they're totally fine and then at the end because he was doing that so much what you think of Matrix hog he's like I couldn't really hear it I don't really got
1:20:27 then he fell asleep yeah he's like I he didn't get any of the movie the shots didn't have any sound did it but that's so funny that he your dad was like so nice and not like the stories dude Rec he stayed with me this last year and Beth has noticed like I get into these old anchors where I get scared like he'll go to bed in my house right and I'm like babe keep it down she's like what the ████ and I was like she didn't say that she said what the hell ████ she didn't say that either I kicked you off front page fool call back jokes um anyways she'd be like yo are you good I'm like what's wrong with me and I like I would like l i still freak out all that's that that's that ████ they'll get you you know but uh he's definitely in the top four dads top four dads there's four of them total wait who's the fourth so it's my OG

1:26:21 distract him so I would talk to him in like different voices and he didn't want to play along ████ cuz he was so sad ████ heartbroken then eventually eventually he couldn't resist and then so we were like on a long ass road trip and I we just started talking I was like I just kept looking at him going like what happened you don't take me out anymore we used to go to Vegas all the time and then he would just be like like he's all like trying to and then eventually kind of hard too yeah after like I don't know how long it took after a while he's finally was like yeah well it's your fault Camille like we just started doing that and then we just shut up shut up shut up shut the ████ up Camille and then we just started like doing it all the time and I think like people it was like our SnapChat thing back when we were single Snapchat was like yeah we started doing it all the time and then and then like random people were like oh I love when you guys

1:33:55 ████ and doesn't Bar None he doesn't Bar None who uh was there anybody that you wanted in Quest Crew at a point that didn't end up being part of it huh Quest Crew it's it's seven dudes they do shows yeah is there anybody in the crew that I wouldn't want a part of it or no that you did want that wasn't in it like you know how there were people that oh that weren't in the shows like dream members that we always wanted to have in our crew and we never got to was there anybody that you wanted to add on to question would been nice to have Victor back no I'm being serious that would have been cool to have Victor back he count so he count okay so he count okay like a dream member that wasn't on the team yeah let's see let me go through KES first let's see there's there's a everybody but ant Anthony you don't you don't want ant in in no I make that joke
1:34:46 all the time no I think um a dream member does it matter whether or not they would it's their dream too cuz it's probably not their dream we force it to be their dream yeah okay I'm not going to lie I don't know I kind of like it how how it was I can get rid of some members since they got rid of me ████ no I'm just kidding I don't know how about you do do you have do you have any members that you wish no but then there was it was funny because there were two guys that um you weren't here yet but when we started the crew we were like like damn we need some people and like and we wanted to pick people that we really knew and that were our friends there were two guys that I remembered I invited they were both from cabba Modern and they both didn't show up was Mike
1:35:36 one of them no was it Lawrence no it's nobody that's in kjas now but I remember like I invited these two guys and I was like Hey we're starting a crew and like we're friends with you guys and we love you you guys are so dope would you want to just come through to the space and just like feel let out even you know they just never came I have a question was there anybody that didn't want me in the crew when I first got in really no I'm ████ rid the guy that made me break up my girlfriend on sle and dance I just told that story on JK I yeah wait let me just settle that once and for all is did you really break up with your girl because I said so um cuz in my head I think it's true it it's it's a huge part of it it's like I can't say it's 100% but it's up there in the 99 right when
1:36:26 dietrix was going to be on so you think he asked me for advice cuz I had just done it and I told him uh most of the people don't tend to stay in their relationships either to focus more on the show or because it doesn't work out yeah I was looking for dance tips but he was just giving me can't help there um everything only looks good on me level's like um okay uh not to go back but if if I could have a person on uh the team they're already on the team but if Aris would have did more shows with us more more of the TV ones yeah like if he was cuz he was such a huge part he's always been a huge part of us even though you might have not seen him all the time that's why the having on the finale was ████ so cool like the last time we did the show but having like especially
1:37:17 for me because I think when I first did it Eris like you weren't as active but I would always see you practice and then I left for a bit and that's that's when you got active and then when I got back in you chose to not want to do it he couldn't cuz he he was he did the Japan right yeah he did a Japan tour with Jo if Aris was in more shows if or if at least I could have did more shows with Aris that would have been cool Joey T is the son of legendary Locker Tony T and Joey T is such a humble guy this is the dude that when I mentioned I wanted to see this one movie he goes oh I I was in that a little bit and it's the ████ he's the main villain who fights Donnie Yen yeah he's in it a lot of bit I'm like you're you're the main bad guy in the film why didn't you what the hell is that why would you say I'm in it a little bit that's that's insane yeah he was the Joker to the Batman yeah he's Joker to
1:38:09 Batman and which case Batman's Donnie Yen he fights Donnie Yen it's pretty he's incredible the crazy part is that there was like we I I remember there was a time like 6 months to a year every party went to everything that Quest did he was at like ciphering and we we'd always be like damn that guy's ████ tight he's amazing he's probably one of the best dancers like that you could see in person plus he's a talented actor and he looks so ████ handsome he's so sexy it like I hate him he fits perfect in quest just get in this ████ closet and let's ████ yeah he do his humor it fits really well and everything too yeah but then I don't know how we would keep up with him honestly well some others I'm okay he's too good for our crew no I can't do one thing he does remember there's a video I was trying to imitate him for the background and I couldn't
1:38:59 even do it what was it I don't know I was just trying to do like what he I was trying to look like him and it looks like I'm joking but I was being serious you looked like you were doing a s█████ zombie dance from Thriller do that again see chill that's kind of tight thanks man ████ BDC all SCE is there like do you think you would want to do anything else with YouTube nowadays yeah 100% what do you want to do make a comeback come back and make Stu what do you want to do like what what kind of stuff go where I left off but better just tell better stories so less hair even less hair yeah that's what I got to do first got to get real hair I got to lose the weight and gain hair those two things do you this is a real question yeah do you want to do the Istanbul hair transplant thing what the ████ did you just say the Istanbul why do you say it like your mom that just

1:40:40 hair underneath that what's that can you get real hair but then still keep that over it dude that's why I have to redo it all the time cuz there's hella real hair yeah buddy yeah making a comeback baby man that was the funniest thing when you first revealed to you know like when cuz the thing is I was the only person that knew that he had like a hairpiece cuz I went there with him to get it done he did the research and I couldn't wait like it was like I can't wait till you show everybody that you don't have hair under that well I remember initially you filmed everything and our goal with it was like if this flops we got good footage to share yeah but it was so ████ dope I remember when she asked I told I was talking to her about it the other day her name is Lisa and she was like so what do you think when she first put it on and you and I were trying to be I don't know why you were trying to be cool with me we're like yeah it looks cool and then she left office we like oh we start jacking each other off we were like yo look ████ ████ La looks ja I got your SE in here no because the second they put
1:41:31 that on and then they faded the side I was like yo this looks like dude it's like in Field of Dreams when he makes the stadium it was like that yeah we were just like holy ████ this is it yeah I got hella white people jobs I became judge so can dance like we love the hair isn't that you're not Filipino you're one isn't that a trip that you ended up being a judge on ABDC with a wig and everybody else had him like after they did they're like I got one too n was like me too that's so crazy that you ended up judging on the shows that like made us how cool is that yeah I was very lucky is during an interesting time and I guess a lot of people said no and I I was like sure no it wasn't oh yeah didn't you say JC got mad at you one time oh when I was judging ABDC yeah dude that's a that's another story dude yeah that that's a funny one he got like
1:42:22 mad cuz you said something and he was like yeah I called him out it was uh we we'll do the story quickly okay ████ can ████ off dude ████ man schedule your dentist appointments better next time dude uh we're judging an episode it was the same one that step boys were getting thrown off on yeah and he was clowning them him and Lil mom and they're like he knows that that's your crew they also know that they no that they don't know oh they don't know no no the show didn't even know we were I told them after I was like did you guys know you guys got my high school crew on here they're like no but they're funny what but they actually had best show and they were just getting trashed on as they were already getting kicked off yeah and I I made a comment I was like you know my other two judges it's not like you guys can do anything you just saw and um the whole audience lit up oh right and I was very like being just being honest but I just didn't like that they were just like
1:43:12 that doesn't make them better by putting them down right also the year before he called me a crackhead yeah remember and and I was like I was fine with it cuz I was like I don't ████ smoke crack it's ████ acid yeah why would you be offended by that yeah um anyways uh cut to the next week at airs right and before next episode uh his assistant comes my door knocks on it and she was like hey uh JC wants to chat with you I was like oh tight ████ maybe they need another member right because one of them's gone and your boy's got vocals right so stupid so I go into so I go into uh his Camp whatever the trailer trailer guy and he sits me down and for the next hour he shares about how much Dance Experience he has an hour of that uh it was a solid 45 minutes what the how much can you say
1:44:02 one you got to remember too like I'm still a fan of of like everything he's done but I'm also now a fan of him because he's just a good dude yeah and I didn't know he like the same way I got when he called me a crackhead I thought it was just playing like it wasn't a big deal cuz it wasn't yeah for me and he shared that he didn't want that on the episode I I think he said something like that and he shared like he told me his Dance Experience I know he's dope I've seen him he didn't want to put in the episode that you had said he can't do what they yeah I called out him and L Mama but it was like uh it was actually it was halfway I felt like he was trying to like share why I was wrong for saying it which I guess I I kind of didn't need to put him down uh but also just reminding me that I already knew he was dope but yeah it was an interesting talk we actually got closer during that talk I got his phone number should we call
1:44:52 him right now yeah um Lil Mama's reaction was kind of funny when I said that after we as we're walking out of the building there's fans Going H say bye to our judges H she goes Hunter racks D tricks Hunter racks I'll do that ████ right now and I was like okay guys it's not a big deal dang they really take that ████ personal yeah I mean you're not supposed to put the judges down but I just don't I mean I've been on the we've been on the other side we don't put them TV though they they do that on idol all the time yeah I I was like you called me a crackhead JC come on man I know that's that what gives you that that feels AR worse yeah makes you think that and then was judging so you think how' that I don't think I I thought I can judge they fired me without even firing me they didn't even tell me but I never I don't think I ever asked you how that felt to like really be the ████ judge on a show that was the first show that like we all all of us had done dude I felt like super Asian I was taking notes dude I I I know what
1:45:43 it did for us so I did not want to ████ up like I took it so serious the amount of time I spent had some funny ass moments on you went on stage started dancing with that that girl team that ████ was so funny yeah any anything Nigel ask you do you just kind of anytime he asked you to do that he's like d you should go up there and do the piece with them and I was like I thought you would that looked like a thing you would just do yeah hey you guys stop dancing cut the music I should be on stage doing that no that's not me H pass me kick dietrix out of quest through me um no but now Nigel set it up he was like Dom I would love to see you do that down piece wouldn't you guys love to see it and the whole audience I was like ████ Nigel Dam haven't burned calories since now but then that's him knowing what you're capable of too because it was a good moment it was um I would say that experience was super powerful I learned so much from Nigel like like did you learn I learned a lot like I learned of like a lot of good ████ he's a good
1:46:34 dude man and he ████ loves dance he knew the show was might not get signed for another season so he would set us up like stuff like putting me on stage against their will because it wasn't part of the it wasn't part of the show he would just make moments he'd be like audience shouldn't we do this another season of this and get everybody Ed he was really good about he really cares about dancers too like I cared a lot about the dancers and I realized he cared equally as much about what happens to this dancer damn do you have an opinion on the allegations that he's going through do you have an opinion on the person that made the allegations I don't know anything about anybody you have worked with her though yeah I have I don't know man it's hard I don't know nothing about we I wasn't part of that ████ anymore by then but I was surprised that it like the only thing is I'm surprised that all those years of him being being on the show or
1:47:24 with so you think if that was something that would happen regularly I thought the lot the list would be a lot longer people that would have something to say you know I will say I don't know what happened but the way Nigel handled it was dope like cuz he just left right he came back they filmed the auditions he was in the judging right he's part of the show again he found out that he was obviously getting U sued for this situation made a statement and took himself out of his own created a show damn knowing that they already shot it and he also said like uh the way he handled it he he made decisions to back off but handle it correctly I don't know what the outcome was but I just love the the form I'm not I don't love the fact whatever if it did happen obviously love the form because we've been in the industry for quite a not like we're ████ always in it but like I've I
1:48:16 never thought that you know where we started just being nobody's when you look at news it's just like oh cool that happened but it's weird to see news about people you know when like past people and so you think get into really bad problems and you see that ████ and you're like oh damn it's just cuz you and Shane Sparks were homies and then that happened and then we were like whoa yeah and I I still have my relationship and how we see we've always got along with Shane really well but yeah it's crazy that have you seen that he talks about it on podcast now like no I what say very openly yeah what does what does he share he he shares all the details about the people that accused him and after you really hear this at least on his side when you hear the story you definitely do understand a little bit more about
1:49:06 why he did do it or why he why they were coming after him so hard oh I understand um at least on his side I don't know the other side yeah I don't dude it's hearing news like that I know what you mean like it's always like shocking because we do know them like even what happened to Twitch like that's some deep that's the darkest news you can find but it is like oh ████ you take a step back and you're like oh like these are our people in our community and on the grand scheme of things I look at it as like I think dance is so important not to get all lame and deep but it's like I think dance is so powerful and it brings people together so it's like I always push for that no matter what so whatever documentaries that might come out or anything news that hits the goal for for me and I think just the what we've set as Quest is to like we've did bring communities together and I I just wish the best for anybody that's just dancing cuz it's way better than talking yeah
1:49:57 and I think humans we're just idiots we're not good at talking but the dance people like the the the dancers especially the ones we grew up with and the Masters of The Craft it's always crazy to hear yeah uh anything that goes bad it's just sad last thing what did you think of the Olympics I thought they were dope yeah tight thanks for watching thank you guys imagine no I thought I thought I thought uh you know like when we were first breaking that was like what a dream that would be that wasn't yeah we didn't even have that dream cuz it wasn't even possible but no I I um the only thing that I'm kind of saddened about besides the obvious performance we're not naming names just kidding but I'm not um no the only thing that's sad about it is that that La didn't sign up for that as an event but Australia did ironically that
1:50:48 is really sad yeah so 2032 and then the next Olympics they also signed up for it but it is really sad but then you remember that La is very like Revenue focused so it's like okay they already know all the B boy jams that never worked out I mean it's just like I get it because like Breakin is something where you don't need to buy anything to do it we've always talked about that dance is the one thing where you can't buy product yeah right you can just magically become this without having to like get equipment or really professional training even you can just start on your own and you never bought a jauk masks though I bought I can afford nice things I can get them to fit you you did a so a lot of people also don't know that you did Jabba shows yeah I did for two weeks you Bo yeah that was pretty cool yeah good story thank you for joining us but yeah the Olympics man like that that to see that's pretty surreal right yeah I
1:51:38 thought it was really ████ cool yeah and I was just like uh very proud to see all the not just the American dancers but I talk online with a lot of the the B boys and you kind of see him it's just dope it's kind of romantic man to see it what sucks is is like I know we have like a lot of ogs that might look down upon it yeah and I and I could understand that from their perspective but overall the ████ was dope it was so cool to see like art on that ████ and people like Phil Wizard and Victor like people that took it so serious I've never seen abs like that on any B boy have you ████ seen like whose abs are you talking about I'm talking about like all the Olympians like they're all like they're like they take it so serious like I'm still on that McDonald's diet obviously but it's like for them like all aspects of their craft like we did not think about our diet back then we were trying to figure out how to eat right but like they're like to be an
1:52:28 Olympian athlete is pretty cool like the amount of work they I remember back then in like 09 anytime that we stayed at a hotel if you caught me in the gym you would just go I still do when I hear like oh I can't eat that cuz I'm on a diet I'm like be like me there was that one time though I will say when you when you thought it would be funny to to have abs so you like starved yourself like crazy and you had abs for like a month or two yeah it'd be funny to have abs and to like for Hawk when he got back to be like hey that was the whole goal and I ████ starved myself like ████ for three mon do you think you would have abs again in life yeah December in December you're GNA have abs you promise yeah yeah how about you probably not honestly yeah me neither just give up thank you guys for joining uh JK overtime uh again these are not paid so please support the channel by watching
