0:00 The minute we walk into a store, I can feel the timer already go off. Like like if I'm in a gun store, I'm like looking at a rifle. Dude, this is so cool. I'm like, look at this. Look, look at the action on this. Isn't this cool? Yeah. So cool. I'm like, so I can already feel like, okay, give me give me all your cool stuff. Oh, this is cool. This is pretty cool. And then after we finally exit the [Music] store and welcome back to an episode of the camera boys. Hurry up. Sit down. Boom. Nice. Nice class for us. No double news, guys. Wow. Mark's excited. You never so enthusiastic. That's good. Hey, honestly, we need enthusiasm. I'm always enthusiast. It's a midday shift. That means we got to bring in some energy. I'm always enthusiastic. No food in your
0:50 mouth, man. That's crazy, dude. I'm just kidding. That's half our videos we're eating. All right, question for you guys. All right. What's something that you want your chicks to get into? But anal, am I right? It was right there. It was right there. I actually Which way though? experienced something recently. Say you guys been doing anal. Joe and Hannah did anal. That's the title of the video. I did anal last time. That would be a Joe story, right? Very romantic. I've been wanting her to snorkel for ages and she finally ████ She doesn't really know how to swim though. You want her to snorkel your anus? So, that was the first stage to learn how to swim. Sounded like uh she couldn't swim. She was scared of it. Well, the funny thing is the way she learned like she didn't the way I found
1:41 out she didn't know how to swim is we were swimming in a cenote in Mexico and we were halfway in the river. It was a underground cave river. Those are so scary. They're scary, dude. God. And halfway we're in, she goes, "I don't think I remember how to swim." For real. And I'm like, "What the f███?" So I swam back and I grabbed her. And then I'm just going like this the whole time. And then she goes, "Yeah, I forgot how to swim." And I'm like, "How do you forget?" And that's when I And then Yeah. And another time was uh David. We were on a river and then David was like, "Oh, let's just do that cliff jump." And then he pushed Hannah to do it. But she had a life vest and all that. So she actually was down. She did it. So I was waiting for her and she jump she jumped, right? But she doesn't know how to time her breaths. So she was like be like too early. Oh no. And then to breathe again. Yeah. She ran out of
2:31 air when she got into the ████ water. Yeah. And then so she she inhaled while the water was there. So she got up coughing and I'm all like smacking her in the water and I'm like damn. But so when we were in Hawaii, it was like um the perfect place to learn and then she it took about a year, but she's like super comfortable now. But the next stage was she had a phobia of sticking her head under the water. So I'm like, "Oh man, I want to go snorkeling, but like my buddy just bought a boat and he has uh he has he's doing snorkel tours now." So cool. Sometimes it's the best when you don't teach or do anything, but you're just there along for the ride. Yeah. And then there was this uh captain. She was like, "Hella nice. Super like step by step. Just put that on. We got you." You know, cool. And I'm over here like, "Oh, ████ yeah. She's
3:22 going to snorkel." Cuz if it was between me and her, I think would have worked. I would have annoyed her. Like, why don't you put your hand in the ████ ground? Oh my god. Just ████ Oh, what are you afraid of? It's just water. You make me not want to do this. Literally. Literally. That's how Tiff got into snorkeling, too, cuz she know how to swim. Well, she she doesn't feel confident, which is like probably the same as I don't know how to swim. But we went to Hawaii. We did a boat tour. We did like a reef thing and like they guided us and it just made it I was like worried. I was like, "F███ it. Is she going to be okay?" But it's just, you know, you're just floating like this looking down. You're chilling. Yeah, it's easy. But then eventually she starts to get like way more like, "Okay, this chick is like going a little bit deeper." And I'm like, "That's a little scary." But now she's at this stage where uh she's on she wants to do hard mode where we went to like this area called Sharks Cove where there's hella little fishies, right? But it's super
4:12 safe cuz it's like maybe like a 2 ft of water. So you could still touch the ground with your feet. And she goes, I don't think I'm going to use a snorke snorkel. I'm going just use goggles. Sick. So I was like, what? That's hard mode. You know, so she goes, so I could time my breaths better. Cool. Hey, you know what's next? When's her birthday? In September. You buy her a spear gun. Oh, for real? That's next, bro. That's for sure. Next. Like, I want her to snorkel. Get her a spear gun. You're going to end up with a spear in you, dude. I know. Yeah. Next stage is is us going deep water and then snorkeling with like dolphins. And low key though, I still get like the heebie-jebies when you go deep water. You know, when like Oh, yeah. like the drop off happens and then it's just dark blue. That's so scary, bro. It's scary. Yeah, that's crazy. It'll never not be scary. Yeah, I
5:03 I haven't done scuba. That's like the next thing after snorkeling is like you go actually go all the way in, dude. But the funniest thing to me is that Steve scuba certified. Oh, scuba Steve. And he did it so he could ride the Just do helmet diving. Yeah, but I think that that seems scary, too. That's kind of like something I've been waiting for for a couple years and I'm super happy where she's like got over her fear and then she's like, "Let's do it." And she's like, you know, she's like, "I'm physically capable, but I'm just I got to mentally." And I'm like, "That's what I've been ████ saying. You could do this s███." Everything comes out different from your from your significant other, though. You know, like like same thing with Nah. Like, I be trying to get her to to golf with me. And here's the crazy thing is when she got into it and I feel like a lot of
5:54 human beings do this so I you know I have a lot of grace for it but like you get really excited about something when you're first learning and then whether it actually sticks with you or not is a completely different thing. So she'll like get into something and like obsess over it real quick too. Get all cute especially the fashion and the culture of it. We got to get like sick ass clubs and stuff. And then it's like sometimes she'll like want to go to the driving range without me in the very beginning. And then now trying to get her to golf is like the hardest thing in the world because she gets in her head and she like she hates that she doesn't do well. But it's like if you tell her she lacks discipline. That's good. She can't stick to it. You know, you just need to relax. But that's the thing. If you don't try to keep going, you won't ever be good. So if you keep on thinking you're not good, so you don't try. Yeah. Keep sucking. Yeah. It's it's this ████ weird ass downward cycle. I'm good at
6:44 sucking, dude. What's that thing called? Like there's a there's a name for this. There's a graph about like in the beginning beginner. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like it's like you you you systemic racism. No, it's not. And then it Wait, is it it's not Dunning Krueger where you when it drops you think you think you know a lot. You think you know everything and it's Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And you at the end you're like actually I don't know ████ at all. curve, isn't it? No, it's not a bell curve. It's not a bell curve. That's a asmtope. Yeah. Well, that being said, uh, with her, it's like I've taught her everything she knows about golf. And the ironic thing is that she's she if she tried, she'd be really good. And I'm I'm not like not a bias just because she's my girl. Like you know I've seen a number of me and my homies who try to get their girls in and like Nina will
7:36 like kind of whoop on all of them. Oh wow. Yeah. Like does she does she play sports like normally? Not really. I mean she was a dancer too. Are your homies girls dancers? Not all of them. No. I think that has a lot to do. Dancers have high body IQ. Yeah. I would I would give that to her for sure. And the thing is I'm like dude if you just kind of try right then you honestly would be better than me. Also, women in golf often times are more precise because they don't have the same ego of just trying to ████ bomb. Almost all sports. Yeah, that's true. It's just like you think about the fundamentals and then you do that versus the ego of like, oh well, I'm trying to outshoot this. You know, me, I'm always trying to bomb it and that's my problem. I can hit it far, but if you don't hit it straight and you hit it far, then you're really shanking it. Yeah. But for her, I'm like, you you could be good. You just need to be consistent. But then I think it's because it's coming from me that she gets ████ annoyed. Yeah. You
8:28 know, because it's like Yeah. It it's probably also like I'm like I'm like you would be so good if blah blah blah. And then she'll go and she doesn't hit it and then I'll go and I'll hit it like really really nice or something and she's probably ████ this guy, you know? Is she competitive with you? I think so. For sure. For sure. I'm Maybe you play that angle like maybe you should practice more so you could finally beat me. Say things like that to her. See what she say. Be a mean dad to her. Yeah. Yeah. Cuz you guys play golf together. We have We haven't. And she's beat me before. Well, in the very beginning, like right when I started teaching her and like she got into a certain place. Like there's been a game where she's beat me and I was like, "Holy crap." And I saw the light of being like, "Wait, if I can get her to commit to this, my life is going to be sick." Selfishly, what if her expectations are higher than yours because she's actually kind of good. So then if she doesn't make if she doesn't make that, she's all like, "I can't just
9:19 have fun with this ████ Like, I'm ████ way better than this. That is hilarious and I need to nurture that. I need to like get away. She's like actually Michael Jordan hella competitive in her head. Maybe she just has to get good away from you and then you can come back and then That's probably a good one. Yeah, I mean I can see the logic in that. Not going to happen. Yeah, it's not. I think most dudes just want a homeboy with a ████ Oh boy. I think Ken I think Ken does. I think most dudes you just want your person to do everything with you and then you get to ████ them and that's what's awesome. You want to do everything with you like everything across the board. The things that he wants to do. True. Yes. Not everything across the board. You want to have a compromise. There's nothing that you like doing completely alone. Uh jacking
10:10 off. No. Get out of honesty. No. If you're a quality time person, then you probably want to do everything with them. Like even like I think my ideal day like if I just boil it all down take all like ████ whatever uh norms of society are it would be like it'd be like hey babe I want to go inside Sam Ash and try all the drums and you just watch me for 8 hours babe that's really good and then everything I try you hear the symbol you hear it I want her to have be very enthusiastic about everything you just want a cheerleader but it'll Yeah. So unrealistic, you know. Oh my god. Part of Hey, hey, don't look at the synthesizers. Look at this. Woo. You hear that? Part of me I feel the same way cuz like sometimes when we're like Tiff works from home and I'm like,
11:01 "F███, I wish you could just go with me to the coffee shop so we just work on our computers together and s███." Oh, she can't even do that. Look at my spreadsheets. Yeah. Like come on. Like what do you think? It's not She can't use her laptop. Well, because she does therapy, she has to do it in a specific location. She can't She can't be at Starbucks. Like, so put like a background on her with a enclosed. No, but like that's something with like the VPN and ████ Like it's like if their network is used on like a different IP address that's not like what's listed, then it's a problem. It's like a whole ████ thing. That's what happens when you have a real job like me. Um, but like Yeah. No, I feel that sentiment like I just the things that I want to do I wish I could just if I want to train I'm like why can't you just train too like just do jiu-jitsu with me? Like if I take her into one of my hobby things right? Yeah. The minute we walk into a
11:51 store I can feel the timer already go off. Like like if I'm in a gun store I'm like looking at a rifle. Dude, this is so cool. I'm like look at this. Look at look at the action on this. Isn't this cool? Yeah. So cool. I'm like, so I could already feel like, okay, give me give me all the cool stuff. Oh, this is cool. This is pretty cool. And then we finally exit the store. Okay. Well, what's the worst that can happen if you take too long? Starts nagging. What does she do? And I can feel her. Yeah. You feel the tension build in the room, but does it amount to anything? Does it climb? No, but then it affects me though. Oh, cuz I can feel it's like I'm like like there's like a leaning thing on me and now I'm looking at Oh, so this is the 2025 thing. Oh, that I can't see the tag anymore. And then finally when I exit the store, I'm like, "Oh, I can't breathe again."
12:41 So, she never voices it and goes, "Can we get out of here?" Like, she never says that. She just waits and it gets more passive aggressive. I could just feel it, right? You don't got to say nothing. Or does is there anything that she's interested in that you got to just like pretend to not have a timer on as well, though? That's the problem. She's not into anything. Oh, damn. Have interests. parts around. Yeah, she's not really like into So, what's cool now? Um, she finally got into thing what I wanted her to get into, which is jiu-jitsu. Oh, yeah. So, that's ████ cool cuz like that's kind of like one of those dual benefits, right? Like one, we get to do it together. We get to watch fights and have fun and get entertained together, but ultimately if she's out in the world, like she could defend herself. So, that's the good utility. And so now what's cool is because she's developed
13:32 her own like fondness for it, she'll watch videos on her own, send me clips, she's into the culture, there's like little memes or like you know little personalities in the thing. She'll send it to me. So that's super super super cool. And now like if I don't go, she'll still go, you know? So that's like when she get better than you, dude. You better watch out. You got to go to your train sessions. Oh, and you guys have like built community out there. So it's like she's got like her relationships with different people as well. Yeah. So, that that part that part's really really cool. It took a long time to get there cuz I I almost feel like for girls it's more important to learn jiu-jitsu than dudes because the most of the perpetrators are dudes and you have to fight dudes. Yeah. So, so I feel like and in most cases they're trying to get them to the ground. Yeah. And they're on top of you. That's probably really important for most chicks. I feel like just in PE in high school or junior high all chicks should
14:23 do jiu-jitsu for like a year or two. I think that'd be awesome. But it's cool that she got into it. is really really into it now. So now we do it together. I thought they just teach I thought they already teach girls to go stop it and then they blow a whistle. No means no. But now now I'm trying to get it where she enjoys rolling with me cuz that's like No, that'll never happen. That'll never happen. Naked. Just do it naked. That's not like a unfair advantage that she that uh she would have for being so tall. No, like she like she's she's strong. She's hella strong. She's really That's why I'm saying she would smoke them. She's really competitive. So, she like it does it goes from like I just want to have these friendly ones, but she always wants to like win and then I want to win. Yeah. Didn't she kick you in the Didn't she kick you in the face during jiu-jitsu? Yeah, that's just cuz we're two spazzy white belts. We're just
15:13 moving crazy. What's So, what's something that you wanted to get into that she has has no interest in right now? So, I think over truck buying. No, cuz over so over the two years I mean over the two decades over that we've almost been together. I've slowly been able to grow this ████ on a homeboy. ████ on a homeboy. Yeah. Honestly, it does. Wait, wait. So, she's been your homeboy, but now she's growing a ████ cuz she cuz she's cuz she's very feminine, but she's also No, I think I grew the homeboy out. Okay. Okay. That's better word for sure. Cuz she likes trucks and stuff too. Um, but yeah, like I got like she started shooting. She carries. She has a CCW. Damn. Damn, that's dope. So like, yeah, like so. So over time, the homeboy was
16:03 able to blossom on the ████ which is cool. Honestly, that's what I that's what I say to Tiff, but not those words. I want homeboy with a ████ It sounds so gay and I can't believe I'm saying this on this show, but I'm saying what we talk about. We're like, damn, we're really lucky that like we're best friends. Like, you know what I mean? That's not gay. That's awesome. But it's true though cuz it's like it's like Tiff is my best friend in a weird No, not in a weird way at all. Like she's who I want to hang out with all the time. Best friend with the ████ Exactly. And that's tight, but she never lets me use it or anything, but that's fine. A point. But one thing I want tip to get into. Okay. A long time ago, when I was working at this fight gym and I was training there for like like seven, eight years at this time and I was one of the instructors there. Tiff goes and she's in college. She's like, I think
16:54 I'm a I'm going to start learning self-defense. Like I'm going to take some classes. Wow. I'm going to go learn how to like like like protect myself. No, like take classes. cuz you don't want to like just train with me or right here. Yeah. Right. Like I have access to a gym that I work at. I have access to the brain that's just right here. Yeah. And I'm like, you know, I teach tiny little children. I feel like I could teach your ass, too. You know, she's like, "No, that's cool. Fine. Whatever." Why do you think that is? Why do you think they just avoid like the closeness? She probably thinks I suck. No. No. I think I suck. You know what I think it is? I think it's we're so soft as a society. We let them see each other as equals and they're so entitled to that. She doesn't want to see you as a
17:45 butt even though you actually are. She she doesn't really watch me train at all. So I think that in her mind is like this just Nick, you know, like it just like most people know me in this form of like training at a gym, but in her eyes I'm just the guy who like pulls his butt cheeks down and like is that buddy? I filmed this. Is that funny? I want to learn that. You know what I mean? Like she never seen you coach a class? No. Actually, no. Now I'm thinking about it enough. She's never seen me coach a class. I don't think that's funny cuz I'm like the opposite. Like Hannah's like teach me Japanese. I'm like get a tutor. I don't I realize that I don't want to cuz I like from the snorkeling and swimming like secondand I don't want to teach her like only because I think um it kind of turns into this weird
18:35 dynamic you're going to yell at her. Huh? Power dynamic. I think I get frustrated when I teach people. So and I don't want to give her that energy. Yep. Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah. Something you want to get smack into? No, we I think we have a really good system. Oh, best friends again. About half half of our hobbies we do together and then the other half we don't even touch them. That's kind of tight. I don't even ████ with her social media ████ whatsoever because my rule is that I don't want her to make something for my approval or for something to seem like I would laugh at it because it changes where she would have been with like in her mind. So whenever she's filming or whenever she has her ████ set up, I'm just like I don't exist. I just get out. and then she'll hit me up for like an answer to a problem if she's like how do I end this piece or like what do I do with the like is this better is that better then I say
19:25 something but I never give my two cents. I think that's like I'm a I'm a heavy believer in like if you have a partner that's doing something creative like you can't be an influence in it. Like that's just how it works for us. So like if I'm doing music ████ or if I'm doing if I'm doing anything like in my place she doesn't pop in and go what are you working on? Like we don't we don't do that at all ever. You don't you don't nappy tabs each other, huh? Nah, we don't we're just not that kind of couple. I know there's some that like like Philip and Mackenzie like there's couples that are just creative powerhouses together, but we're we're not that. You know what I realize I have to do? I have to get out of Gio's way when it comes to interior design stuff cuz she'll like oh it's our house, right? So I'll like chime in whatever and then I'm like cuz I have my own preferences. Yeah. And then then we start creating whatever like a little mood board. And then uh I'm like, "Oh, let me just see what you would come up with if it's just all you." And I look
20:16 at it and I'm like, "That's literally 7,000 times better." And I have zero taste. I could see how you have bad taste, though. I need to get out of I need to get out of here. You feel you have bad taste. She's like um she takes really bold creative choices. Uhhuh. And I think I'm practical. So I think I'm So I'm like I'm choosing things that I think might be in the now that you might see in like a model home, whatever, right? But her stuff it's like you see it and you're like, "Oh ████ this is next level creative changing culture. It's like yeah, this is what you'll see like a influencer interior designer would do." And I would choose like what a ████ like a home that's trying to make a thousand homes. It looks like that. Like there's a thousand homes that look like this, you know? I'm like I'm like ████ Old Navy and then she's like I
21:08 don't know whatever ████ fashion ████ she does. You know something better than Old Navy. She's like the better one. But you would be good for like if you were designing a house for resale because you know like thatch always explains there's only so many things that you should do if you're flipping a house. Oh yeah. If I was choosing like flip materials I think that Exactly. Like there's people like this people LVP. I get LVP from my house. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Bro, his recommendations are dope. I only get GE, man. Only GE, bro. I love his videos, though. It's very logical choices, and a person that did too much would just go under in value. Yeah. Yeah. Ash that a dud fit
