0:00 thank you [Music] all right everybody Welcome to a very special episode of the careful boys where today we are going to be talking about Maui Maui Joe take it away Hawaiian native sort of you you have more ties to Hawaii than I do you're born there all the time no it was not born there my sister was born there my parents met and got married there I was conceived there and I got married there yeah so we both have relatives there both have hello relatives there but I was born here I was also born here so why the butt you were conceived in Maui Hey Joe were you conceived in Maui you weren't conceived in Maui I was conceived in Maui that's pretty cool man I'm actually very upset about that that I was conceived there and my mom was there for eight months and then came over in a month on the ninth month I
0:52 think in the eighth or ninth month and then came over so you could have been a local boy but I couldn't I could have and I lost all my Hawaii privilege yep chakras all the time pigeon yeah you know I think we're pigeon would be cool do you have a good pigeon accent no try listen try listen no try listen say Reese's Peanut Butter Cups [Laughter] uh it's crazy because so I um I wasn't planning on stopping by but I had I missed a flight so I had to do a connector at Maui and then like I mean we've been watching all the footage and everything but it's so different watching it on the phone versus like seeing it on the plane just looking down and going like what the ████ like the whole area is much bigger than what you
1:42 can imagine because it's just the whole the whole town of Lahaina is gone like completely gone I don't know if you guys ever been there ever never sure yes I've always wanted to go but I got this tattoo there in Lahaina town in Lahaina yeah wow that's a cool time yeah it's it's crazy because um I'll go there like every every year and just being in a place where all of a sudden it's just like disappeared out of like overnight I was like what the ████ like how and then how fast it went away that's crazy I heard on um on breaking points either ever watch Breaking points no they were talking about it and they were saying that they were having malfunctions in the in the the fire of the the what you call it the the water
2:32 irrigation system no they shut it off that's what they were saying yeah not malfunctioned they just turned it off they're like that's too much water you're using wait to stop the fire yeah well okay do you think that's fishy that's fishy bro there's a lot to it so Maui's already got um they're already in a drought they're already dirty like don't have enough water right and then um a couple years ago it was so bad that when people are visiting they were telling the locals limit your water use because there's so many people remember that coming in right now and then like you're just using too much water so their water reserves were low and then so um while they were fighting the fire uh the fire department was saying like their water just
3:22 got shut off so in the middle of fighting the fire like they ran out of there's just no more water there's footage of people like with garden hoses yeah just trying to protect their homes and then the water shut off yeah that's ████ that's not Fishy Stuff huh fishy business I think for people that don't know all right we gotta go through the sequence of what went down because there's some people saying that it's like a ████ weather attack and then there's like so I'll give you the crazy crazy I heard there's some crazy conspirations some better sound very reasonable and also and I'll show you though and I'll tell you the reason right crazy is that um they said that it's uh it's uh we have
4:13 these weapons that could manipulate the weather right and then so they were testing it out on Maui to Target that area because they want to wipe out that whole Prime real estate and turn it into a 15-minute City okay that's the that's the most outlandish one and it was a coordinated effort yeah what's a 15-minute City like a smart City yeah like a smart city and it's like a modern 15 minutes but anyways there so that that whole Camp believes that it's a coordinated effort by the government everybody because there are a lot of weird ████ right so for one it's like um they say that it was planned because uh you know they didn't even sound the
5:03 alarm and Hawaii has all the every once a month they test it on every island when you hear that what like it gets really loud like a ████ bomb is about to come is that a tsunami alarm it is it is but it's meant for urgent it's an emergency alarm right that alarm didn't go off that was the first thing everyone asked they're like why didn't the alarms go off he's in charge has now resigned exactly very interesting and that guy was off the island conveniently and he was in a hotel seminar with FEMA about environmental disasters wow how coincidentally right beaver's gonna all these conspiracy theories are gonna say all this ████ coincidence they're gonna think I was ████ around yeah there's a lot of there's a lot so so I'm just going blush reading ████ Elementary School yeah I'm just going
5:53 from the wildest ████ to the most normal ████ right so that's the wildest ████ the most normal ████ is um it it was extremely ████ windy like nothing I've ever experienced here in California it was like 100 mile winds so ████ windy that um roofs and and phone lines and everything were falling down on Oahu it wasn't as bad but it was still very freaking windy so um if you see footage of before the fire on Lahaina like there's there's this street called Front Street that's where like the main street is where all the shops are there's people like walking around town and they're showing you like trees that fell down and um roofs of whole entire buildings just gone because the wind blew it off so a lot of the
6:43 businesses were closed that day and then a lot of people weren't walking around so maybe it could have been worse but a lot of people just weren't in the town already and then um Lahaina always has fires during the summer like or just Maui in general whenever I'm there there's always like a brush on fire or something and it's usually up country meaning like it's on the other side of the island where there's like these grassy Hills so there was a fi there's a footage of a guy where uh he's recording this little fire because a telephone um I mean not a telephone the Electrical uh Powerline yeah the power line it fell and at the end it was like like that right so they got this patch of grass on fire and then uh the fire truck came and
7:34 he's like they're like fighting it and then it flew on the other side and it got the other side all lit up so like that's where everyone's like recording it you see the beginning of it and it starts from up the hill and then so apparently by the morning like the fire department says that it's contained meaning like if they dealt with the fire but there are other fires around the island so there were like Three Fires going on at the same time another area called Kula which is like you know like a 30 minute drive or more that was burning too so that town was burning this was burning it was all it was just a ████ of crazy and then the fire I guess was moving like a mile a minute so it was like when you see holy ████ it's crazy like you'll see one house on fire and then like when they're recording it the second house is already
8:25 getting on fire 30 seconds later so it's moving it's moving fast yeah and then when the fire went um when the fire happened the police and everyone was directing traffic but I think the ████ that happened was because of the high winds a lot of um phone like Towers or like what do you call it like those uh poles or like trees all these things were falling down and blocking traffic and you'll see this too like cars are coming up and then they're like whoops and then they're trying to turn out everyone's trying to leave and then there's cops like directing traffic Into the Fire they're like oh you can't come this way you got to go this way because the roads block up there so it was just such a crazy ████ and then with all the Flames coming in I was like this is this is
9:15 wild because when you watch the footage none of the cops are on the loudspeakers saying like get out of your homes there's no warning no one knew anything and then like that's when everyone was just like oh ████ we got to get out of here but the weird thing is there wasn't like a chaos of people like trying to run over each other or nothing it was quiet and it was just people like trying to get away yeah oh ████ because the the footage of uh the car burning like the or like the burnt cars and likable that so the reason why they couldn't get out was because the roads are blocked like right by the by the beach like that yeah yeah so there was several roads you'll you'll see this too if you watch the before like before the fire came and people just recording the crazy wins there's already like palm trees and stuff down blocking the road
10:05 and debris and whatever yeah and then so that's what built uh blocked off the traffic there's actually um One Main Road that's out that goes out of town it's only one yeah so it's like one in one out so there was two ways to escape one is going up um toward like Kaanapali where so one is going north one is going south right and a lot of people will go south but then that road that's actually the corner of where the first fire started so they already blocked that early in the morning yeah so everyone that was going this way was like getting screwed so everyone's stuck go this way yeah so it was like a big cluster ████ and in the little streets too if they try to do local like it was like you know different you know
10:57 Street blockages and I said and I think like they're saying the last moments is when people were blocked and then they were just like oh ████ we just got to jump in the water because it was coming from up the hill going down like this those videos are crazy yeah they said that uh so far at least 111 people have been killed but only 10 people have been identified oh my gosh oh my god dude I saw the police chief talking about it he was talking about how we have to get DNA samples from all the the burnt up ashes from the bodies right and they said it's taking a long time yeah also the resources to do that quickly isn't going to be high in a smaller town a total of 58 of the burned area of Lahaina so far they're using ████ ton of like cadaver dogs and stuff like that but it was 30 cadaver dogs
11:49 and they only as of now they only did like 25 percent of the town it's a big area dude because so the the official count is over 2 000 structures are completely gone so imagine that's like if one person's in in one structure that's over 2 000 people the official official I think missing persons count right now is like uh 1300 1300. that's the official missing person a couple days ago I heard it was like a thousand or something damn maybe like a couple weeks ago actually what do you think of all those like Tick Tock detectives that are like what are people wearing a bunch of graphs and saying a laser shot down and that was a that was that that was a launch they they debunked that that laser it wasn't Maui there was some other place and it was going up because
12:39 it was a it was like a launch it was I think it was California or something it was launch of a rocket but they debugged it dude there's so many like disrespectful theories on like why the what were some of the hottest ones you saw that's that's the main one is that they think it's a government ploy to steal the land but then the the cause is all these different like space age uh weaponry nah I think so this is my honest thoughts about that the government the Hawaii state government is really incompetent I don't think they can pull anything off well like it's really bad that a lot of Hawaiians don't say that yeah no it's shockingly bad like to me it makes more sense that all of this was a a extreme ████ of one after the other bad
13:31 decisions yeah yeah and then no leadership and like just everyone was caught off guard is uh is Maui getting any federal aid yet because I heard a lot of times so buy it by I think Biden says one house each member of the household is going to get 700 bucks right yeah if you if you so if it's 2 000 structures it's like what 700 it's like one point less than two million and also it's like these people who lost their homes like I really hope I mean this might probably happen but developers are going to look at this as an opportunity I heard people are already getting calls they're gonna be forced out of the place that they that's the talk right now is everyone's trying to figure out um how to stop that um that's so hard right you know that
14:21 MMA girl that that's leading the the Illuminator yeah so her fund I think it's at like two 2.5 mil right now and um she says that all of that is going to go to the community to make sure that they can keep their property going into that yo don't answer that yeah it's a reporting that investors and Realtors are trying to capitalize on the wildfires to purchase land from the locals the Hawaii governor Josh Green said we're not going to allow it but I mean who knows yeah when money is involved that's the crazy thing is you don't need a government Ploy for that to happen that's just naturally what always happens after disasters is that people come in there's uh scoop it all up they're trying to pass this uh I don't know if it's a bill I mean I guess it's like a request for funds but so FEMA apparently is broke and in this relief disaster relief thing that they're
15:12 trying to pass through um the request is 12 billion for Maui but 24 for Ukraine oh that's good so so people are talking about that like why wait why are we throwing 24 billion to Ukraine or whatever how about we help our 24 billion in addition to the already 12 to Maui so they're like oh yeah yeah yeah they're so it's like a disaster relief you know how they pack these things in with like yeah with extra stuff right so that's I guess the conversation right now is like wait what like people are starting to get real salty about Ukraine now yeah no for real I'd be mad too especially if I lived on Maui and dude I'd be ████ pissed because I thought especially if I lived on Melania and I was Ukrainian
16:02 so confused I'd be so mad if you're Russian someone calculated how much it would cost to rebuild Lahaina to what it was before 1.7 million 5.5 billion yeah if it was like 12 billion yeah dude from the 700. but how much how much do you bet I mean I I assume that the 12 billion is not even gonna act that's what I'm saying like it's gonna be funneled other ways what's the likelihood that a lot of that money will be corrupted by Hawaiian officials like a lot well it could be corrupted by 4.9 million FEMA of the feds like we don't know right like by the time it gets to a hand of like a person that actually was a victim of it it's probably seven hundred dollars yeah yeah that's so sad have you talked to anybody from out like recently that lives on Maui of like
16:52 what's happening like boots on the ground my friend my friend uh he's a b boy he lives on Maui he lives in in Lahaina and his his house got spared holy ████ whoa he got he was like there's only a few structures that very very about the church right that's very very few so he had he had a bunch of people uh live in his house like everyone's staying that's cool bro really cool so it's cool to see how the community like comes together you know like that's really ████ tight right they're not looting each other and ████ like they're just cool everyone's making sacrifices driving across town some family man loading up the giant trucks and like that ████ is really cool dude that's another thing too because like so you know how Biden was talking about FEMA Red Cross is there there's like 10 000 beds or there's all there's all this stuff right but no one sees FEMA or they don't know where
17:43 redclaw that's what I keep hearing I keep hearing that the locals are not seeing any federal aid and it's just like it's just us yeah it's just the locals that are doing right the day after it happened um my friend flies Air Cargo to Inner Island and so their company uh decided to give a bunch of water for the First Responders so when they got there and then they're like hauling all this equipment and then um they said that like female Red Cross was just holding all the pallets in one of the storage things and they're just like yeah don't bring any more stuff we don't have a way to transport it oh cool yeah but it sounded crazy because he said that when they flew in if it seemed like a war zone because there were a bunch of people like around the airport just around the fence and then they were
18:33 yelling like let us on let us on help us get back yeah and they're like we can't take everybody so it's like yeah yeah my sister-in-law is talking about how they might have to move off the island because again like you know work in their what they normally do oh they live they live on Maui yeah it might be compromised to a point where it's like you know what's your guys's opinion on like how like there's a lot of people that are like filming tourism and like how dare they still come here and ████ but even though the other side of that is like some of the people that provide tourism are residents hawaiian-born residents of line that are like well we want to still make some money like yeah I think that's you know what's the call what's the card about it I was like ████ pieces of ████ who would go over there during this time but then you
19:24 think about the other side yeah they're like ashamed but it's like dude there's V there's a lot of videos now of local residents that like rely on it and then they're like dude like why do you what are you guys doing they made a good point though because they're like like Jason Momoa and like like all these celebrities like you guys don't have to worry about money and you're telling people to not come and it's like yeah but what about us and I was like damn because at first it's for real like we saw that group snorkeling yeah the snorkeling like the ████ like people just died in those Waters and you're snorkeling there the next day yeah that's that's okay I see a ████ hand you know like oh ████ dude but if that's like an actual Hawaiian business and the guy running that boat is a native like dude then is it so bad yeah I mean they they'll it's like I don't know what the
20:14 right answer is I don't live there you know like it's like it's like imagine the tattoo artist who lives there it's like it's not like locals are just getting new tattoos every day you know what I mean you just need people to come in so it's like if that's the best version of support it's like that's a double show you can't get mad at a tourist in a sense you know because like like we talked about in the other video so much of Maui's economy is tourism yeah so much for me I'm like I know people are angry right but then sometimes they just get mad at the first thing they see that's annoying and upsetting yeah but I'm like at the end of the day your government didn't take care of you like they struck up on so many like the police department ████ up the fire department well I don't think they ████ up but they ran out of water like that's so stupid that's crazy so like and then whoever shut off the water is ████ stupid yeah like what happened
21:05 there yeah and then you have the emergency response Guy saying he had a conference saying like oh you know what um I have no regrets about not sounding the alarm the people of Maui were so stupid that if they turn on the tsunami alarm they would run uphill I don't like those I don't like those uh those generalizations the thing is everyone's told that that's an emergency alarm not a tsunami alarm and if you go on the website everybody's just underlining that it's for wildfires specifically too so then like that's why he resigned because whatever and then just there's so much incompetence every step of the way that I feel like man that's who you should be talking to
21:56 there were um their environmental groups that kept pushing the government to like deal with the brush fires and certain things they they did a survey on the probabilities of how dangerous it would be and this was years ago they said you guys gotta you guys gotta do these steps to modernize your town you got to bury your phone lines you got to bury the electrical wires you got to do all this ████ but like they didn't do any of it so then now it's kind of like to me it's like who like the tourism is like that's I get that but that doesn't solve your future issues like it's really being a like making a government accountable yeah the crazy thing too is like how many articles have we already seen where like none of that's addressed none of the causes that could have you know made sense or addressed and it just says global warming yeah yeah yeah yeah
22:48 and nothing else is like talked about like ways that the local government failed the people for the resources that they're paying out of their taxes or like none of them guys that people are going to use this to support some sort of agenda or narrative that they typically do it seems like such an easy cop-out for corruption to like continue yeah yeah because it people get angry and they'll just latch on to whatever sounds like they're the enemy but it's like you're getting distracted you're like oh Global Warming see that's why I ████ these guys like ████ conservatives or whatever right and then the other side's like yeah ████ liberals because of this this and this and then it's like ████ tourists and I'm like you're angry at the wrong people that have no power yeah yeah they're not gonna that's true yeah that's very true and then some people are like yeah if this was a Republican government it would be this and that I'm all like no
23:39 it's just there's nepotism and then there's corruption and I think certain states have more of that than others right yeah yeah and the longer it goes uncontested the stronger right yeah because the emergency guy that resigned he wasn't even qualified for that role he took like a he took like one seminar or some ████ he has no prior experience as a first responder to anything damn so it's like dude there's all kinds of ████ going on so it's mostly incompetence you think a hunch I think it's a thousand percent like it's probably the biggest uh yeah you drop the ball in your emergency room yeah and you continue to drop the ball as you're running a government and then these things happen it's like yeah yeah I think it's incompetence from leadership and and just yeah they were
24:29 overwhelmed yep do we have direct links to give money to oh you know I'll drop a Google link here um like what I was doing was giving direct to families yeah and a lot of our fan base is actually either from Maui or they have family in Lahaina and what I just told them to do is send me your GoFundMe directly and then I'll fund that and so that's what I've been doing yeah send it but uh if you guys just want a whole list of helping out families directly because some of these organizations not on this list but you know like for example big organizations a lot of that money just goes to admin fees it doesn't go directly to the people that need help they need help directly yeah and I would say like it might be better to just pick a family
25:19 that needs your help and also these even if they do get government help or whatever it doesn't cover things like funeral fees if a lot of members of their family pass it doesn't cover Hospital fees if they got hurt and injured from maybe the smoke or all kinds of other things so they're gonna need cash send some money foreign
