just think it's really cool just to see that, you know, we got
nominated for an award. And by the way, shout out to
everyone else. We got nominated too.
You know, I feel like all those other podcasts are very, I've
seen them before. Like I've I've seen them
plastered everywhere before like the names.
Yeah, it's not easy to be consistent with podcasts.
You know, a lot of people start them, don't finish, you know,
week after week after week. Like I said in there, we're
bringing out these episodes for you guys, you know, guests
waking up, you know, doing it, boom, boom, boom.
It's all part of the process. Exactly.
And here it is and here we are. But guys, what a what a crazy
weekend. Pretty crazy I think though,
almost three years that you guys have just been doing every week.
I know, and honestly, we have so much more stories to tell.
Yep boys, what a weekend it was. I'm still recovering by the way.
Me too. Yeah, I'm the only one that did
3 days. Yeah, I know man.
You. Guys, you guys were wuss.
We were wuss out only the two days each.
Well, I'm glad you got to experience the, you know, all
three days. I guess that's what it's like
being 20, getting to experience the whole.
Three, you have the energy, right?
And when you're 36, you know, it's kind of.
Hard right? 36, Yeah.
I'll say you're 10 years off, man.
I don't know. I could be.
Six, it's kind of hard, right, to maintain the energy levels.
I mean, boys, where do we start? I mean, honestly, like what?
Thursday we left right and we could just start within.
Well, low key, I think one of the reasons too is you guys
drank on Thursday. Yeah, you.
Know yeah, you know I did a drinking live, drank every day
you know well really what I think so if you guys don't know
we went to Vegas and the reason why we went to Vegas is because
we went to EDC and EDC is another music festival well EDM
festival. And the interesting thing about
this festival is that it runs overnight.
So like, you know, Coachella, you start at what, 10-11 maybe,
I don't know, 1 and it ends at like midnight, 11 midnight.
EDC starts at midnight and wraps up around like 5. 5:30 in the
morning. 5:00 AM. So for me, that really threw me
off. You know, I'm not used to
staying up basically the whole day.
Yeah, and what's really cool too is to see what everyone else is
like during all all that, you know, I mean, again, like you
said too, I mean it starts with it in the afternoon.
I mean, like, I mean, I think like the real cool sets start at
midnight. So if you want to say that it
starts at midnight shore. But yeah, I think like the best
sets start within 11 to midnight and then like, yeah.
And then anything else that happens after that, just you
staying up really enjoying the the loudness in the fireworks.
I do want to say this and, and I'll give this to EDC for sure.
Their, their firework game is like no other.
You know, I saw that they spent almost $2,000,000 a night on
fireworks, a night on. And I don't, I don't blame them.
Like their grand finale, like it's so loud.
I feel it in my throat. Like I yeah, like it's so it's
actually crazy. Say that again.
Like it's so loud, No. No, no, no, no.
Before that it's you feel it in. Oh yeah, I feel it in my throat.
Like you ever like you ever been, you ever been like, like
front row at a concert and like it just so loud, like the bass,
like you feel it in your esophagus.
I. Feel it in my chest sometimes I.
Feel it in my chest. Oh, that's what I meant.
Not really in my. Throat.
Fuck, man. Yo, OK, that's what I meant to
say. I meant to say.
Chest. OK?
No, I'm just curious. But that's how much fireworks
there are. It's like it's like you.
Know no there was a lie. I had a beautiful fireworks show
like there would be, they had like different times, like it
would just randomly be and then. All of a sudden, I think some
some kid got a hold on the last day of like the the the pad, the
control, I mean. Pressing.
Button because like the fire at the stage would go off and then
like fireworks and then sparklers would go off the
stage. It was like randomness
everywhere. It was crazy.
Or maybe it was supposed to happen.
I don't know. And real quick, I think you guys
know the names better who are like some DJs that performed at
EDC. Well, first of all, there was a
lot of different sets there, but I'd say the one that were like
most notable to me were like The Chainsmokers, Zedd, Martin
Garrix. I mean, those are like the big
names, right? The ones that really stood out
to me. The one you like.
Oh Zedd, none of the girl. No fuck that girl.
Fuck that fucking girl bro. She is just like a bullshitter
bro. I was waiting for one song from
this one DJ called Peggy and then she just didn't play it.
And you know, Drake sampled that song on his new album.
Was your oh the na na na na? Yeah, it's on this song called
Cheetah, Cheetah. Print.
Oh, I should hear it, Cheetah. Print.
Play it real quick. What is it in the beginning?
Oh, just look up Cheetah. Yeah.
Oh yeah, he did. OK.
So that's what I was waiting for for one hour and she didn't play
it. No.
Damn, no, but that is a good song.
I know that song. But yeah, but a lot more, a lot
more crazier sets too. It's just a lot.
It was, it was, it was a lot. If you saw the set list, you
know, tiny, those prints were in those names.
It was a lot of people that really attended and and showed
out and did did their thing, you know.
I think EDC got to be the best festival I've went to this year
in my opinion. The stage design.
Compared to Coachella. It doesn't even compare to
Coachella. I don't think anything does,
man. It's, it's just like one of
those things where like you're really free to do whatever the
fuck you want. I just think the stages, the the
design of the festival, like there's just a lot more money
put into it. I feel like I might be wrong and
it's just a lot more people. I've heard the sound quality is
a lot better too. Like the way it's ran, you know,
they have literally like carnival rides at the grounds.
They have like just. Like real carnival rides.
Like actual real ones. Actual they have two 3 Ferris
wheels. The fireworks shows the roller
coasters like just the way the stage is set up.
I think every person like that is DJ ING is gets fireworks like
you get like firework buttons or something.
I don't know, but and then just how many people like to get into
the festival every day? It took us like an hour or two
in traffic trying to get in there.
It's so hectic at EDC, so many people that people have to fly
in on a helicopter. I mean, you did right?
Tell us how that was. Oh no, I didn't.
I didn't have. Like no, I got cancelled Cause
the wind. Yeah, cause the wind.
Well, I was supposed to go on the helicopter, but then, like
the wind, it was too windy, so the helicopters were falling out
of the sky. And I was stuck in the car with
Mr. Exclusive crews and I, and I was, you know what's?
Crazy is you left two hours before me, but I had a crazy
driver. He was going, he was driving in
the shoulder. In the highway.
He was passing everybody he got there in 35.
Minutes and so and yeah, so we got a major exclusive crews with
the with the rental. We were supposed to meet them
while they were supposed to fly in the helicopter.
Then whenever it got cancelled he had to then not have to get
into a new ride while me and exclusive crews were already on
the way and he still beat us. 'Cause the driver.
Was yeah, going on the grass Rd. and everything and I was over
there waiting in traffic. Yeah, they knew all the the
shortcuts and it was like a quick 45 minutes.
Yeah, it was like. And then I'm over here getting
and then and then finally I arrived and I texted you, right?
And I was just like, yo, where you guys at?
Where you guys at? Which by the way, one thing and
the biggest con I have about EDC is the service you.
You have to have Verizon. They actually have Verizon
towers. I saw a TikTok they have Verizon
towers in the little like place. Like actual tower.
It says Verizon on it. I think it's sponsored by
Verizon. That's, you know, I think the
new iPhone should have an option where you can have multiple
different services and one device.
I mean, you can switch on over, you know, you have AT&T in areas
that AT&T best works for. And then you got, I don't know,
I think it'll be kind of cool. I mean, that's a good idea.
If that's the thing, I don't know, maybe the Elon Musk phone
will have that. But anyways, yeah.
So I texted him and go, bro, where are you man?
Like like me and Alan were by the park.
You over here like already on our we're already on our way to
backstage. I'm like, bro, what the fuck?
You already on the grounds? Like that's crazy.
So me and Alan, we were just running while the wind was just
guiding us through the way. But yeah, the wind the last day
I seen a a TikTok where like the porta potties, the porta potties
were. Yeah, I know.
I almost got hit by 1. Float like not even floating.
They're just gliding like, yeah, they're.
Being blown around. Yeah, it was correct.
Whoa, that drive me? Come on.
What's wrong with being blown around?
I I don't know. You tell me.
They're being blown by the wind, so.
No, it's OK. But yeah, now the porta potties,
that's a whole different story too.
But everything, I mean, I just think minus the wind, minus the
no service and Jordan said the best, it's one of the only.
One more con I would say about EDC is like if you get well,
yeah, I guess the service is bad so that's what, but if you get
lost, it's really hard to. Find.
Your your group. I've seen people there that
were, you know, everyone got different methods.
It's like you were all the same hoodies as a group and you, you
know, but there there's these people that I saw that they had
ropes chained around them too, like on their legs, Like they're
like shackled basically. Nah, I've seen the Airtag
method. That's the probably a better
one. Yeah, 'cause I guess it still
works without. Service, yeah, that's another
big thing about EDC too, is that like I heard that they have over
500,000 people attend the event this year.
It's like world record-breaking, different ethnicities different,
like everyone from different places and you can tell too.
But it is seem like the vast majority were like Asians.
Yeah. Seriously, I feel like they
really are the main demo. I feel like Asians just love
EDM. Yeah, I think they're.
The biggest consumers? They do.
But yeah, no, it was it was really fun.
I mean I. Saw a comment on the last
episode where it said you know when you guys were like messed
up on the bed late. OK.
They're saying they're definitely on a lot more than
alcohol. I wish.
What's your comments? I wish, you know, I think that
life would be a little more fun, you know, if if we had all the
party favors. But.
I think it's so interesting to me because how I take that, it's
like, how are you when you're drunk?
You know, like if it looked like we, we were more than just
drunk, then like, how are you when you're drunk?
Because like, for me, it's like, I guess everyone's different
when they're drunk. Alcohol is the only one that I
participate in. Yeah, and it's everyone.
'S got to have a vice, you know? It's got to be that one thing.
Yeah, and now that, you know, I'm about to be 25, I think I
can drink a little. Your advice is that you're a
virgin still. That's your.
That's my advice. Your advice?
No, I think. I think if you were to have one,
if there was one vice I would give you.
Gambling. Sure, gambling.
Low key I probably. I mean, that's only one.
I mean, it's not even like it's a crazy thing.
It's just like. It's not like I'm gambling my
life savings. Yeah, there's a little bit here
and there there's. A little bit here and there, you
know, and plus you always got to win back, you know, that's all
it is. You just got to fight for
something, you know, it's not bad, it's not bad.
It's only bad. It's only, it's only bad if it
if it if it is bad for you, you know what I mean?
Like drinking isn't necessarily bad for you.
It's just. It is bad for.
You. Well, it just depends on how
much you take it, you know what I mean?
Like, 'cause you can take a shot, but I'm going to take 30,
you know what I mean? That's when it gets bad.
I heard you're averaging 10 drinks a day right now.
What? Who the fuck told you that?
I. Don't know the.
Little Oh yeah, let's talk about what happened like so you the
first day. Oh yeah, the first day I really
want to get that EDC experience. And since I also don't do why
not take a shot on the stream, which I didn't lead me to take
another one and another one. So I yes, I went live before
going to EDC. I consider my live streams more
so pre games. Me too, depending on where I go,
depending on what you know, the scenario is of the night.
But we were going to EDC right after our live streams.
So as we were live, a lot of you guys are actually telling me, yo
Brandon, are you going to drink at EDC?
And I told you guys on live. I don't know if I will be
drinking at EDC and you guys were like, OK, well, if you have
a drink with you, maybe you can take a shot on the stream.
I go, you know what, I'll do that for you guys.
Why not? So I was I actually ended up
getting a bottle for the stream the OF stream to be more
specific, the OF stream. And then I took shots with you
guys on the stream and it was amazing.
It was amazing. It was great feeling out the
vibe. I maybe have took a one too many
shots I guess and I kind of felt it a little bit more than what I
thought. And so I went about just kind of
getting lit on stream. I ended it and which was great.
You know, I met my expectations for for sure.
And then we got to EDC. Well, that's why you were so
happy after your stream, because I.
Was. Drunk.
Yeah, you were. Like really happy.
It was like the happiest I've ever seen you in your life.
Hey, shout out shout out to the stream.
But then but then we got the EDC.
Then I ended up getting a few more concoctions and it was
great. It was amazing.
And then I just kind of felt it out a little bit more.
Look, I was really trying to feel like that EDC experience
for sure, you know, and it was amazing.
Again, Day 1 was great until it became the day of day 2 where it
wasn't, it wasn't so great because, well, actually I had to
stay up all night on Friday because I well, I knew that if I
were to sleep, I wouldn't wake up because Alan exclusive cruise
was getting uh, well, he was going to, he was getting to, he
was going to land. He was going to land.
Yeah, he was going to land to Vegas.
He was going to land and he landed at 5:00 in the morning.
And so we had left at like 3, I think around that time, 3:00.
So I stayed up within two hours till I hit 5:00 AM to then
having to sober up and you know, on it actually did work.
I did sober up and I went 5:00 AM to go pick him up.
And so I picked up Alan, brought him back to the B&B that we were
staying at. It was amazing.
It was great. And then I was like, well, I
mean, why not continue my day? So I actually did not sleep at
all. And I think that's why I went
wrong because then I was like, you know what, let me get a
boost of energy real quick. And so I was vlogging without me
picking up Alan and everything. And then I ended up going to the
bar and took a shot in the morning for some break.
But I think the shot that I took in the morning, it wasn't, it
wasn't what I was drinking like prior.
And so it got really bad and so I got really sick.
It sent you over the edge it. Sent me over the edge.
Yeah. And so I didn't feel good after
that shot. I don't know how one shot can
really do you that dirty, but it did me that dirty.
I was throwing up everywhere. It was really bad, really,
really bad. So I was so Saturday was mainly
like a recovery day for me. And then.
And that was, I mean, that was, that was basically that I was
just. No, no, no, no, no, no.
We forgot something. You've lost your wristband.
Oh yeah. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
OK, let me backtrack a little. Bit forget that.
Oh, because I I ended up going to day three.
I forgot, but but anyways, OK, so then a little bit backtrack.
Before even picking up Alan, I actually wanted to kill some
time and I walked around Vegas Strip.
So yeah. So I told myself I was not going
to sleep because I had to wait out within picking up Alan.
So before even picking him up, I was walking around Vegas Strip
trying to kill some time. And then, and then all of a
sudden I realized it was such a random moment taking my phone
out of my pocket, you know, scrolling through and I
realized, Oh, I, I don't have my wristband.
Where, where do I just got out of EDC?
Where is my wristband at? And then now I luckily had time
to kill to then I'll have to retrace my entire, the entire
steps that I took. But then I had noticed that my
wristband was gone. So I literally turned around.
I walked exact, you know, walked back to every location that I've
been at after leaving EDC and I could not find this wristband.
I lost the wristband. It was a really special
wristband. It's not like anything you could
ever buy online. In order for you to get a hold
of a wristband like this, you'd have to have like a staff give
it to you or like a higher up within EDC staff in general.
So that's what sucks that even if I wanted to spend money on
another one, I couldn't because it wasn't nothing to spend money
on you. You can't with this wristband.
So that's why I went wrong, is that it just fell out.
I don't know that. I mean, there's not much to
really say after that. I just lost it and I just
couldn't even attend day 2, even if I was feeling great, I
couldn't even attend day 2. So then it came day three.
Where? OK, Brandon.
Well then how'd you even go day three if you don't have a
wristband? Well, I'm assuming we're all
three of us are going to tell our side of, of how our EDC
experience was. But Julian ended up leaving
early on day three. Didn't 'cause he drove, right?
I flew, Parker flew. Julian drove with his Tesla from
LA to Vegas. So he wanted to leave a little
bit earlier. Because like a 4-5 hour drive
back home. So he ended up having to, he
ended up leaving early and then he gave me his wristband and
then we just kind of enjoyed the the event day three since I can
enjoy it with all three of us. Yeah, you were missing.
No, I enjoyed all the days. I think 2 days was enough for me
for EDC. I'm not.
Going to lie, that's true. Like it's, it is what it,
because for me it's like if it's kind of like for me too because
like, although I, I mean, I did, I went like day one and day
three. So that's kind of, it's kind of
like 2 days for me too. No, yeah, that's what I'm
saying. But for me, I'm just really
scared of getting sick because drinking, not sleeping, that's
the perfect recipe for getting sick.
Why never get sick? I don't think you guys have ever
seen me sick. No.
Like in the whole year plus, it's actually pretty crazy.
That's a good immune system. I think you guys got to level up
your immune system. But I think you're a kid, bro.
Like, of course you're no, you're not going to get sick.
Like, so I had 24 and you don't even drink.
So it's like you don't even do nothing to wear your body down.
Oh, OK. Like.
I want to experience. The sickness.
But now I'm telling you, getting sick is literally alcohol and
not sleeping because the alcohol kills your immune system, all
your white blood cells, and then you don't sleep and then your
body's weak. And you're especially if you're
around other people. Yes and I and travelling on the
flights. Bro me, I'm just I guess I'm
scared of getting sick. You like to be very close to
others when you're drinking. Yeah, without clothes.
So, like, your pathogens all enter your body and they're.
Oh shit, I'm sick. Yeah, and then I'm already weak
and easy, so it's just like, boom, I get sick.
Same thing as Brandon. Did it Brandon get?
Oh no, never mind what? Or you had like you got like
syphilis on. Your bro, what the fuck are you
talking about? You got like.
Like bro, like I've. Never seen, is it still there?
Bro what did you tell where? You had something on your lip.
Where is it still there? No, I want to take a closer
look. No, it's on that side.
But where though? It went away.
You forgot that you got something on your lip.
No I didn't bro. You're just talking shit bro.
This is literally do you not remember it?
I can't tell if you're fucking trolling.
I mean, see, I don't, I don't, am I?
Trolling like he has no. He don't even know bro, I don't
even know what you're talking. About he said that he had a he,
you had a scratch on your lip or something.
Bro I never had no EDC had a scratch.
It was like a. Bump On Thursday you had like a
bump on your lip. No, I fucking didn't bro it's on
video. It's literally on video.
What bump on my oh we're? In the bed.
OK dude. Oh my God.
OK bro no I had a scab but it was like down here on my chin.
I don't know how to my lip you're entangling with, but it's
all good. This fucking guy, Dude, no, I
had a fucking. It was a scab.
I scratched myself, but it's like right here.
It was on my fucking. Lip Oh, OK, I thought it was my
God, the honest mistake. No, because I'm thinking about
my lip for real. But you're talking about down
here. Yes, I had.
Yeah, I had a scratch, a scab. I picked at it.
It started bleeding. No syphilis.
Remember in the football, the football attire when we were
doing the podcast? Yeah.
I had like a little scratch here, yeah.
Yeah, no, I thought it was something else, but thankfully
it wasn't. Thankfully it wasn't or on my
lip. Yeah, it was somewhere.
Anyways, how was EDC for you? I had a blast.
Would you go back? Yes, I will.
Go back, actually. But if I do go back, I don't
want to do the whole drive in thing ever again.
That's the one thing I really don't like about music
festivals, is to get in. It's such a hassle and it kind
of ruins the experience a little bit.
But like once I'm in there, I forget about it.
But like, if I go next year, I definitely got a helicopter.
I'm not. But I hope it's not windy
though, because that's what really kind of killed it a
little bit. They threw it so windy.
Oh yeah, my hat flew over the fucking gate.
Security jumped over the gate to grab it from him.
No, but like it like it like, but it went like far.
Damn. I was like, damn, no, that's
what I said. I was like fuck.
Oh yeah, that was the last day was all windy, right?
No. It was like, it was like cold.
Too. Yeah.
So you weren't there for the. I missed the yeah.
Day one, Day 2, great. Nice and warm.
Nice and warm, got home 567 AM slept, woke up, you know, had
podcasts to do. But honestly?
It was really fun. But I think we should definitely
bring, bring, bring 1 episode that we done.
We did 2 podcast episodes out there in Vegas, but we should
bring one up, which is the infamous Drake Vaughn and his
twin brother. You know, that happened.
Clone. Yeah, that was that was day 2.
That was Saturday, you know. Yeah.
Drake and his clone, Drake and his twin.
We had him on the podcast and. Can you explain real quick why
that's what's the lore? So basically here, here's the
craziness about even us having them on the podcast in general
is because, well, just for those who don't know, within the
previous Drake Von episodes, you know, he'd always talk about his
relationship with his twin brother.
And it was never, ever, I don't know, like Drake and his brother
always had an interesting relationship where like it just
never, they never really got along as as much as they used to
back then. And I feel like Drake had a lot
of things to say about his brother and like things that his
brother would post about him online that was very negative.
And I don't know, it kind of seemed like his brother was
jealous in a way. And these are Drake Vaughn's
words on the podcast. And you know, there'd be a lot
of back in like banter between the both of them, a lot of back
and forth online. Never like in real life
interactions. Every time they'd see each other
in person, they'd always walk past each other, you know,
things like that, that they would always avoid each other
and his twin brother would always just talk shit.
And so it was very, very interesting when we did this
episode to have both of them on and to just see how they
interact with each other. And again, too, like Drake and
his brother just had a whole different dynamic, a whole
different relationship than most twins do.
You know, I feel like when you look like one another, you know,
I just feel like it just makes sense to just get right with
each other, you know, I mean, bro, I'm actually having a twin.
That's what I was thinking about the.
Entire time I wish I had a twin. For real.
I wish I had a twin. Yeah.
And like I would. I don't get all these sibling
relationships that people don't get along with their siblings.
Yeah, me either. I just think it's like a whole
different. I don't.
Yeah, I don't know either, actually.
You know, I've always gone along with all my siblings.
I mean, I'm always real close with with my family, but I don't
know. I guess everyone has different
experiences. And I guess in this scenario
here with two twin brothers that didn't get along for the longest
time have now rekindled the relationship and they came on
our podcast to, well, I was hoping to talk about it.
Anyone else want to chime in on this?
Well, we, you know, we caught them in the process of where
they're still rekindling their, I don't want to say friendship
cause but what, what is? It called their.
Brothership, their brothership, their brotherhood.
Their brother. OK, I think that's something
else. Brotherhood.
I think that's like that's like something else.
Brotherhood, yeah. The bromance?
No, not. Bromance.
They're just. I look, I'm just going to say
this. Their relationship.
Yeah, their relationship, but I just think like, yeah, but like,
not like that, but like, but like that.
You know, but yeah, it was a work in progress.
They actually just came back from Miami and they're still
figuring things out. Was very fresh, very new.
So, you know, there wasn't too much to talk about because I
don't even think themselves they knew where they were standing,
if they've even had that conversation.
But it was a very memorable moment seeing the two twins
right next to each other on the same couch on the Wild podcast.
Well, the other brother, he actually would watch our podcast
and see, and now he's on it. It's crazy because you know,
they were born the exact same daytime.
Like it's so crazy. Like no they.
Didn't say who's older. Well, you can't.
They're both the same age. Well, there's one that's born
first. But let me just say, yeah, I it
was. It was definitely very memorable
for sure. You know, I got to a point where
I kind of confused the both of them.
I mean, they both sound the same, they look the same, they
they smile the same. The episode A.
Lot like Silas, he's whiter. Silas is whiter.
Yeah. Drake.
Drake got a bit of a tan on him, yeah, but that's.
The only way you can tell them apart is just who's the whiter
1. Probably, yeah, but just with
the yeah, by the skin tone for sure.
But no, it was very memorable. I think it was something that
was bound to happen, we just didn't know when.
We got invited into this home, which is Drake Von's.
Love guys, Otzberg's here. And he's that right next to you,
man, That's Drake. Drake, Von.
OK, wait a minute. Whoa, whoa, wait a minute.

interesting. I think it's really cool.

I was surprised, you know, you know, you guys are twins.
Everybody would think you guys would be together all the time
or you know, be like how you guys are right now.
And then obviously you guys weren't.
And then I randomly just see a reel of both of you guys in the
same TikTok. So I me as a viewer, I just want
to know like, yo, what, what happened?
How are you guys cool again? Like what?
What's what brought you guys together?
I wanted to go to the yacht in Miami.

irreconcilable the relationship. Wait, so can you walk us through
Drake? Like what happened?
So he swipes up on your story and he's like, yo, I'm trying to
go in the yacht in Miami. Yeah, he sent me Adm.
And then what was your initial reaction when you saw that text
I. Was basically like, you know,
that's fine, I guess we going on the yacht Miami.
But then they ended up stemming stemming from you guys now
having a cooler, if not closer relationship with each other.
No, I mean, I think there's a positive.
