I don't give a if you love me. I don't give a if you like me. Asking me how did it feel?
Can't say it didn't surprise me. Last time I looked to my right, you was standing beside me.
How can some people I love hang around to drive me? Let's go. What did I miss? What did I miss?
What did I miss? What did I miss? Let's go, let's go. I'm whipping around on like 600 acres.
Let's go, let's go, let's go. You just better not ask for no favor. Let's go, let's go, let's go.
It's love for my brothers and debt to a traitor. Let's go. She might decide to say no to me now,
but say yes to me later. Let's go. All natty like Florida Gator. Let's go. You switched on the guys
and supported a hater. Let's go. What's the game, baby? This TBD. I look at it like a BTC.
Could be down this week, and I'm. Retweet the, retweet the, retweet the.
Don't give a if you love me. I don't give a if you like me. Asking me how did it feel?
Can't say it didn't surprise me. Last time I looked, in my right, you was standing beside me.
How can some people I love? Retweet the room, people. Retweet the room, people.
What did I miss? What did I miss? What did I miss? What did I miss? Let's go.
Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Yeah. Yeah. Punching in faces, some TLC on a dead guy.
Some TLC, cause my gon' need a chilly ice pack for your left eye. I'm back in your city tonight,
walking around with my head high. I saw Bro in the Popeye with them, but been riding gang
since handline. I feel like I'm in a hood party, bro. Where'd you bring me? It's glaze after tones.
Ain't nobody cares until they're in front of your tombstone. Y'all been on that type of timing
for too long. Ice man, Tiffany, blue stones. I done made plenty right out of two wrong. Let's go,
let's go, let's go, let's go. Hey. Let's go, let's go, yeah, yeah. Let's go, yeah. I do slack,
brony. Miss, when I was looking at y'all and cooking with y'all and giving out verses
and buttons to y'all, making sure ours were hit, man. I do slack. When you was all in my crib,
lookin' word for word at all of the shows, y'all always felt like this, man.
What did I miss, brony? Let's just go, water, come on, right? It's way more.
Yeah, we live. What's going on, everybody? You know what time it is. This is Clays After Dark.
If you want to do us a favor, Sherry, post a space. Let everyone know that we're here.
Let everyone know that we're going to have a fantastic show this evening. With that,
I do want to welcome my incredible co-host, I Hold Clay Rock. How are you guys doing tonight?
Better now that you just killed that. Way better now. Killed it. Did I do it? You did.
Did it feel like Dad was in the room? It did. You had the same power too. Like we were,
while we were horsing around, you just took right over. I'm like, I'm doing this shit.
I honestly feel like I'm the female version of Zad. Yeah. Yeah. I'm good, Ronnie.
How you guys doing? I'm liking all my new buttons. I'm I'm about to mute everyone. Mute everyone.
And Charles gets out of hand. We're muting him. We're kicking him. Well, the other thing I was like,
if you guys been wondering where Zad or Billy are, do us a quick favor and share.
Go to the bottom right hand of your screen and and drop a comment too. Drop an Ada handle.
Drop a comment. Comment, yo, where's Billy at? Question mark, yo, Zaddy, are you pulling up tonight?
Question mark, you know what I mean? Type shit. Watching Love Island or something. Literally. Yeah,
but nice summer vibes. I went golfing today. Cooked a ribeye. If Billy was here, he'd say, "Hold,
I need to see it." I got proof, you know. Proof is in the pudding. You know, I spent too much.
How was the expensive ribeye? Was it worth the money? Um, I'm gonna be completely honest,
like one thousand percent. I don't think so, right? Yeah, I don't think so. Like, I don't know.
Maybe like you know, I'm doing something wrong. But you know, I cooked it right. You know,
five minutes on each side, little sizzle. Didn't press it. You know, prepped the grill, little salt
and pepper, nothing crazy. Like it was, it was a really good ribeye, and I think I'm,
I think I'm dialed in. Some would like to say, but I don't know. Paying like triple for that cut
of meat, like grass fed, maybe it's better for you know the cells in my body, and I'll
and I'll you know just go along with that. It's like your sparklers, shit. You know,
like motherfuckers don't want to drink out the tap water because they're scared of the chemicals,
so they're gonna drink like. Oh, speaking of which, this is our time hold.
We actually the hose water out numbers of sparklers. Straight up, so everybody pour up tonight.
Pour up a glass of tap. Roll up a joint. If you want to make Brony feel uncomfortable,
pour straight out the tap tonight. Straight out the tap. Yeah, but I don't think it was worth it.
I really don't. I went golfing with my pops today though, so that was fun. And yeah,
just a good summer vibey day. Worked, golfed, ate good, smoked. Now it's close after dark. You know.
Hey, so do you guys have like? You don't get bit up by mosquitoes
because mosquitoes are fucking brutal down here. And I I was out there
for like maybe ten fifteen minutes outside, and I'm all bit up. I'm super itchy. It's disgusting.
I hate them. And now like I can't even go to my backyard because the mosquitoes are out there.
How fucked up is that? Yeah, you need some essential oils for bug repellent,
and it is really bad out here. So, like, a mosquito's flying in, right? And they see Rocky, Rocky's
like couple Bud Lights deep, hasn't had like any meat in a while, and they're like,
I don't want to get drunk tonight. Then they look at Hold, and they're like, Ribeye every day,
nice juicy fucking. Come here, grass fed, grass fed Hold. Dude, the fucking mosquitoes love me more
than I love fucking eating food, and I don't even know how that's possible. So yeah, Brony,
I feel your pain. I'm itchy at least in one spot every day. You know, there's at least one spot
of the body I'm a little itchy. You know, as long as it's not below the belt, you know.
I knew Charles was gonna say some freaky ass shit. I knew it. I was almost gonna say something
and like be like, "Yo, let me just, you know, prepare." But yeah, nothing in those areas.
It's family toast day. It's played after dark. What up, Charles? How you doing, brother? I'm good.
I'm good. How are you, man? How's everybody here? Where's Daddy at? Maybe he strolls in, you know.
It's just, you know, some casual, you know, chilling. Billy will be a little late. You know,
Zaddy's on a flight. Yeah, Zaddy's on a flight, taking care of some business.
He's gonna probably show up late. And then Billy is getting out of training with the boys,
and you know, maybe too much information. But you know, some, some,
might stroll in here a little bit late. But no worries,
we're gonna get to the alpha. We gonna glaze everything that needs to be glazed correctly.
So we good? We wait, man. Make Roni cost. Make Roni cost. Yeah, I practiced the intro,
but that's that's about it. So that's as far as you got. Yeah. Well, I hope you watched
the new Charo video because the new episode one is a banger. I did. I did.
Your hopefully you guys did your homework because we're doing a pop quiz in here.
The first pop quiz is what. Animal is in the spaceship, and then put in the comments
you're gonna win a giveaway. The second the the second pop quiz is gonna be what gets
deep throated in the in the episode. That's another question in the comments. You have two options,
two answers. Potentially, you could win some giveaways. I don't know what we're giving away tonight.
I think we got some a whole lot of good stuff. I don't know, Rocky, Roni,
do we have any alpha on that? I'm stuck on what. I just realized what the answer is to what gets
deep throated, you fucker. If you did your homework and you watched and you supported,
then you know it was good. This makes me feel very good that people remember some of the jokes
from it. The intern did a job. Yo, went crazy. So yeah, we're doing some giveaways.
I think we're giving away some potentially some Ada handle, Hal whitelist.
So drop a handle in the comments. We're giving away some, you know, Clay
After Dark handle backgrounds. I think we got some Charles NFTs. We're giving away in our magic box,
and you know, and Charles didn't even come empty-handed. He was like, "Yo," in the DMs. He's like,
"Yo, where are we sending the gifts to?" So we got even more. We weren't even expecting
Charles to bring gifts because he's a gifting himself. He's a very special gift.
So we have some gifts, maybe some added gifts. So you know, yeah, yeah. Nobody wants this.
Only one person will get to see that tonight, and I'm hoping it's not any of us. But yeah. Engage,
engage with the space. You know what we do. We do this every week. It's Clays After Dark.
If you guys got anything to talk about, any shows, any intros, crack a joke, maybe a bad dad joke,
maybe potentially, and then we can crank off to the intro and get right into the show for tonight.
Yeah, well, Billy's not here for his bad dad joke. But did you guys are you guys watching
The Bear on Hulu? Either of you? Rock, hold. I know you guys don't like TV. I love that show. Oh,
thank you. No, it's it's like on its third season. It's not new, new. But season three is.
They got to cut five seasons. Three, three. You won't fucking watch it anyway. Can I just say,
Jeremy Allen White killed it in the Bear. He killed it in Shameless. You know he. Well,
that's why I can't watch the Bear because he's just lip to me. He just he can't be anybody
but lip to me. Yeah, I mean that's to be honest. I had to look up his name before I said it
because I was gonna say lip, but I don't know if people watch Shameless. But like this thing is,
the guy never leaves Chicago no matter what show he's in. I'll put that down on the list, Roni.
I'm still on Snowfall. Snowfall is a oh yeah, that one has so many episodes. So you know,
so like whenever you get done with that, like who knows? Hey, hold. Did you say something?
Maybe you got to this part. I built this brick by brick. Oh, are you talking about Franklin?
Franklin, yes sir, yes sir. Yeah, man, yeah, man, dude. That this Snowfall is a crazy show.
Like it really takes you, and I'm sure a lot of these shows do. But like you know,
I try to stay focused on one show at a time because I'll like. Get characters confused,
and I'll think that they're in other shows, and I'll just my mind's just not organized enough
for too many TV shows. So I'll just try to focus on one show, knock it out, you know,
absorb as much as I can, feel like I'm actually living in the TV show.
But Snowfall is definitely like an intense, every super intense. If you guys haven't watched it,
but Vroni, what was the show you mentioned one more time? Hold on. So, yeah, before that,
what season of Snowfall are you in? I think I'm in five, and I think there's seven. Oh shit!
You've really committed to this, so you really like it. Sixty. I love it. If I'm ever like eating
or vibing or not whooping Billy's ass in VR golf after he scams me for handicaps,
I'm chilling in the living room watching Snowfall. At least a couple episodes, like one or two,
and then I'll go to sleep. Type shit. You should hear these two like legitimately on
our three-way calls get into over scamming and the handicaps on betting fake golf money. VR,
it's hilarious, bro. Billy's a scammer, and when he listens back to this, he's gonna be like, "Hey,
hold! I heard what you said in the intro, bro, bro." Billy, so we have handicaps in our golf game,
right? And Billy doesn't care about his golf game, so his handicap's fucking like 300, right?
And I'm over here like trying to try out for live tournament. And my handicap's like five,
so we get into the the match game, and it's like recommended handicap.
And and Billy's always like run the handicap, hold run the handicap. I'm like, bro,
the recommended is twelve fucking strokes on a nine holeer. Like, do you know what that means?
That means that the man, like, I'm giving him like two extra balls every fucking hole. You know,
for this and that, and Billy's a good golfer. I'll tell you that. I'm, you know, I do slack.
Billy doesn't fuck around. Billy's a good golfer, so when he gets his little ten handicap on me,
bro, I'm sweating. And one time we played, I had, I died early, and I was like, Billy,
can you quit so I can get my money back? And he's like, Nah, bro, die out. He let me die,
so he took my thousand, right? He, first of all, let me tell you, this is deep. That's you think,
wonder why Billy's not here. Billy's fired, guys. Billy's done. He's not. He's no longer in
Clay's After Dark. He pulled up, took my thousand, put. He stole a thousand from me.
That's what it should be called. So then I was like, next day, right? I'm like, yo, let's run
that thousand back. And then that's when the scam came in. He had that fucking mentality. He's like,
well, you got to run the handicap then. And I was sweating for it. He won by like two strokes.
I was like, bro. So I was like, you know, let me sleep on it. I'm down two k, right? Next day,
I'm like, Billy, I'm not doing the handicap shit. He's like, all right, I'll give you like one
or two extra less. So I'm like, it's still not enough. We need to do zero zero even handicap.
I gave him like six seven strokes. The man cooked me and took three thousand from me.
So I broke the VR. I'm no longer golfing. Billy's not allowed on this fucking show no more.
And yeah, have you have you seen that episode? Have you seen that episode of Fresh Prince of Bel Air
where Will's playing and loses money like to a pool hustler, and then Uncle Phil comes in
and he just like starts dominating? That's what it sounds like right there. Exactly, bro.
And you know what? Billy is a Uncle Phil Martin type vibe, so like it makes complete sense.
He's probably eating a sandwich right now on the way home, driving home with a sandwich in one hand,
we're in the other ear. Man, shout out to the crew,
shout out to everybody. Yeah, that's a that's my rant. I'm sorry.
Oh yeah, I forgot Zad's not here, so we other people talk. Okay, so what we're doing tonight?
What we're gonna do tonight? Everyone's on Finice too. We're gonna go straight to the intro.
Then we're gonna dial in and we're gonna tap in with Charles. Make sure you retweet the room. Also,
shout out to the sponsors. You know what I'm talking about. You're about to get glazed the fuck up.
So shout out to the sponsors. Shout out to the listeners. Shout out to the Cab Portal members.
If you know, you know. The chat's gonna be bumping. I hope you drop the comment.
I see Houston Miller. Yo, Houston's in the. Where's Houston, man? Where the homies at? But yeah,
let me jump into the intro. I'm gonna send it over to the intern or whoever's running
the cat account at this point. I have no idea. Could be Billy, Zaddy, could be Charles.
I have no idea. So we're gonna run it over there, and then yeah, we'll figure this out. Bro,
what are you talking about, man? Bro, I have no idea. But we'll just we're gonna have to run it
today. So yeah, enjoy it. Yo, it's your boy. Ho ho ho ho ho. You're tuned into Clays After Dark.

bro. He's on a boat with Billy. Yeah, well, listen. Welcome to the space. It's me
and my two quiet co-hosts. They're kind of shy. I don't think they met yet.
Hopefully tonight they'll meet and converse. We got Charles tonight. Make sure you retweet
the motherfucking space. Retweet the moon. Drop a comment if you haven't. We got giveaways.
We got all that good shenanigans coming. But Charles with us. Uncle Charles,
I don't know if the people know who you are. I'm sure majority of the people do know,
but can we get like a little intro before we dive deep into the episodes
and what you guys are building and the alpha that you're gonna spell and all that other shit too?
So you know, give the people a little breakdown. You know where you came from. You know,
just a little intro for us, if you don't mind. Hello, guys. I'm Charles Huskins.
I'm sitting here from warm, sunny Colorado. You know, I'm a billionaire. Just a little bit about me.
Big, big background and. Movies, TV shows, in terms of watching, love sitting down
and watching all day. Love music. Played the guitar for some very big names out
in a couple different countries and stuff. You know, won't name names, but yeah,
just just the guy that's been in crypto for a long time came back in 2017,
and this this this literally just fell on my lap. So with Charles, we we what happened? I mean,
the simple long story short, made long is that uh. One day, me and the intern were doing DeGen shit,
and we found this meme coin that just got launched anonymously. The whole LP was burned.
The original person who launched it pumped and dumped it. It went to like one thousand
or two thousand ADA market cap, and we were like, "This meme is hilarious.
We gotta do something with it." And we like, we like Charles. You know,
he does he he does a lot for the ecosystem, whether people know it or not. He gets a lot of hate.
Cause he's a big name, you know. When you, the bigger with Spider-Man said, "With great powers comes
great responsibility." And the power that Charles has, he has a lot of money and a lot of influence,
you know. So, with that comes with a lot of bullets. And we thought we need to lighten up this chain
a little bit and make something funny. So, me and the intern came in and decided, "Hey, let's make.
" You know, we started off. With our my background in music and the intern
and I both started writing and every day we wrote something and you know when the first thing
we launched back in June I believe June something of last year we dropped the music video
when Cardano was kind of dead everyone was sad and it just so happened that the Nike one came
and we launched this this. Earthboy music video, which was poking fun.
Everyone talks about Moonboys. We said, "Well, what's the opposite?" Cardano had a bunch
of Earthboys. Everybody took profit. Everybody was upset that they couldn't moon.
So we poked fun at this. And from there, it was history. We said we learned everything from scratch.
So we didn't know any animation. We had a background music. We just loved watching TV's.
Probably watched. Between our team, so many shows—not just in like American shows,
but all across the world—and we took that experience, you know, and said, "Fuck it,
let's let's do this animated thing." So now we're we're building a entertainment eco ecosystem,
as we like to call it. So we last November we we wanted to show the community that we could create
an episode, so we launched episode zero, partnering with Stuff, and we made it in six weeks.
And the whole idea was to show a proof of concept of a really shitty show, which we call Charmed.
We put it on chain and and it was great. I mean, we're still minting, but we sold
a thousand episodes in the first day. And when we go to studios and and major name
you know production companies, and they hear you sold a thousand episodes, how for this much? Wow,
like they go crazy. A pilot episode is actually making money, and we're using that
basically to build out all. You know, we didn't raise any funds from from the token at all.
The LP itself, it's community owned, so it's in a treasury with a multi sig wallet. And so we said,
how do we bring this? To a bigger brand, and and how do we make fun of crypto?
And I'm a little bit scatterbrained because literally me and and the team have been off of like
ten hours of sleep for the past week just because we pulled two all nighters, one all nighter
the other day to get this show ready to go. So. We really love this. We love this.
We've talked to whole the Clay's team before and DMs a lot, and you know they,
you guys do a great job hosting spaces. I mean, we need more media in general, right? In in Cardano,
and I think the most fun way to really showcase something isn't to market Cardano itself,
but to market something that brings attention and on-chain value. And you know,
I would say the episodes, turning a thousand episodes, something we can flex. You know.
Charles actually talked about it too in a space. Unfortunately, wasn't recorded. And yeah,
I mean the next episode one starts season one, so this is a whole season of episodes
we're going to be dropping over the next few months, and we're really excited
that we dropped episode one. It's been a few months in the making, and really,
the it took a lot of time because from episode if you watch episode zero, it's really bad. I mean,
genuinely. But the the idea is if your community can see from the ground up.
You know that you level up and get better and better, right? They're gonna fall in love,
and that's you know it's a similar story with South Park. South Park Matt Trey,
they released something. They actually released the first ever South Park style episode
or like a special, but they didn't even put their names on the freaking thing.
Other people were getting jobs off of their off of their content that they they went viral
before the internet was famous, like big, right? So this kind of goes to show media plays
a huge role. And you know, news that came out yesterday was. They signed a deal with Paramount,
a 1.5 billion dollar streaming deal, and you know all I can say is a meme coin can do that
in the blink of an eye. So we're taking this crypto, we like to call it the Web three version of
South Park, and the Web three version is we're poking fun at crypto, we make fun of situations that
people have in crypto, and we try and do it in a way that can be more appealing to everyday people,
right? So when we made this episode, we showed it to our people and our family
and our friend circle, children that's in our you know kids and friends. Nephews, nieces,
and seeing you know in the real world would this work? And people laughed, so we were like,
"All right, it's it's time to release this." And so yeah, our our if we could say with one goal that
we have is to create an entertainment ecosystem as a meme, a meme dia, as you could call it.
So I'm showing I'm a billionaire. Me too, me too, brother. Stacking and and dipping it in,
and you know. Shallows, Stevie, I had to say that. But, Charles, I was gonna ask this new episode,
episode one. Yeah, episode zero was pretty dog shit. I'm not gonna lie. So I'm not, you know,
I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna, you know. But episode one, now we're talking. Now we got some,
we got some sauce in there. So I'm gonna ask though. I see it's on Twitter and it's pinned.
Is this on like, are you like publishing this? How does that work? Are you still working with book
and stuff? What's the deal with that? And because I see that it's on Twitter,
and I love that that you're not like token gating it because it's hard. Do you speak in this voice,
like while you read the audio book? What is it? Go go. No, no. I'm asking. I'm asking my friend.
Does he speak in this voice when he? Charles, Charles, my friend. And my my good friend.
It's not an audio book. It's not an audio book. It's an episode, so it's actually like visuals.
So it's on stuff. It's you know, so stuff has like videos and music and all that. I'm sorry,
stuff to me means audio book. So yeah, I'm sorry, I forgot the fact you need to do
your own research. Yeah, I gotta, I gotta fucking Dior, Dior, Dior. Clay's got a Clay
's got animations on stuff, and so does Charles. So let's get back to Charles
and give us a little explanation of distribution and yeah. So this is the way it's interesting.
We had a lot, a long debate, a discussion within the team on how we were release it
because with episode zero, yes. We, when you look compared to episode one, it's very bad. But like,
it's the the idea behind it is simple: is we show something, we build it,
and we make it better every single time. Episode one's a huge level up. Episode two is gonna be me
and an intern and the animation team sat down today, rewatched it, and we're like, man,
we watch this thing so many times, we think this is the shit now. So there's a lot of improvement,
and that's the thing is like, there's the only direction we can go with creating this is up.
And so with distribution, we talked a lot about it, and we actually, you know.
We talked to Ben from Stuff I O pretty frequently after episode zero, and there, you know,
they we discussed a lot about dropping it as an NFT, but making it cheap
and people loving to see it. But we found one kind of big issue for us was by token gating it,
buying an NFT. You like, it's great if you have a big audience and you want those loyal fans
going in and buying it because now it's worth something to have a collectible. Yeah,
if you want to do a constant fundraiser, then you sell it, right? Otherwise, you give it away. Yeah,
yeah, right? Sort of, sort of. So like. For episode zero, that's basically like a fundraiser to fund
the whole season, right? But like, we kind of thinking of it like, okay, this like,
how are everyday people? Why would they buy one NFT of one episode? You don't do that
in the real world, right? So with us, what we're thinking is season one, maybe the season.
There's a couple things we're debating with, and maybe here's some alpha. But like,
season finale might not come at the episode, but that we drop on Twitter.
Maybe it's like half an episode or a third of an episode. But we put all of season one on one NFT,
and the season finale is actually on that one NFT, right? And it's more like owning a DVD of,
let's say, Chappelle's Show, which is a huge inspiration for this show.
And so we're thinking of it more like, why would anybody buy a DVD of one episode, right?
And that's what these NFTs are. And we want to be able to grow, you know, on X, right?
Because we're playing with crypto, but then we're we're actually going to be starting very soon
on YouTube and playing with that, right? I think we we kind of have capped off where we
how much growth we can have on X. Yo, all these media-connected motherfuckers, like Jesus, too,
and this motherfucker is speaking right now, Charles. Y'all need to be reaching out to fucking NPR
because they're finding themselves in a fucking like a budget deficit,
and and you because because apparently the federal government decided to fucking snatch away
fucking funding, you know, for certain fucking things. So maybe we could all flip
our fucking switches and fucking like put some stitches on stitches. You know what I'm saying, bro?
What are you talking about, man? You sound high as fuck, man. I like it. Okay, so appreciate that.
Gold Rush. What was it? What was the thing you were saying? Look into. Is she biship? Is she biship?
NPR. What is it? Onlyfans. Okay, so Charles, I love that. So yeah, like, what about the TikToks?
And I like the the YouTube route is dope because you can hit some algorithms
and get like you know some different exposure. Twitter definitely has a cap
and definitely has our audience, but I love the fact that it's watchable. People can share it,
and you're right. Like, in order for these types of projects or Especially like you know in
the entertainment industry, like you have to have that fan base in order to sell anything.
So you know you get and and it doesn't have to be a lot. It can be a thousand p a thousand customers
is great. You know you get a thousand people to subscribe to your OnlyFans.
You know you're making money and. I love the fact that it's not private and people can watch it
and love it and share it and make their choice whether down the line they want to invest.
And the cool thing is, is that it's not just you know you guys are doing one thing.
So the whole ecosystem's cool. I'd love for you guys to break,
and this doesn't have to be right now, but it's on the tip of my tongue,
like you know how the whole ecosystem works with Charle. Like you know, you guys have the token,
you guys have the animations. Are we going back? To you know stuff eventually. Are we doing
other things, you know, simultaneously? Yeah. So breakdown. I love stuff. First of all,
I just want to say this: fuck book. That's a running joke we've had since episode zero. Yeah,
fuck book, and we fuck the stuff too. Do you remember that was so funny that episode that we had
where you were like, fuck you, Buck, and they were going back and forth, bro. I don't.
I think we have that recorded, but that's that's a legendary space that we had,
and that energy was top tier. Yeah, man. I love stuff like yo, fuck book.
So the we we talked to stuff. We haven't talked to stuff in a minute, but the the thing is.
We're always the way we're gonna grow this entertainment ecosystem. It's a meme coin, just
like Snack is a meme coin. They're building products. They're decentralizing the IP.
We're figuring out fun ways to do the same thing. The way we're taking is look,
we're this this token is a meme coin at the end of the day. And how do token memes across Alana,
across other chains, work? The more attention you get from it, the more people are gonna buy it,
right? It's let me tell you a little bit about crypto. Tell me, tell me.
So the thing that we thought about is, fuck it. Why are we trying to? You know,
when we first started off, we're like, oh, let's do these burning matches. Let's do this shit.
Let's do that shit. It's like, no. Let's just fucking create so much content
that people fucking love. That at once, at some point, there's gonna be a breaking point,
and people just want to go buy in. And the first validation came when Nike blew up because we made
a video, a two-part episode, or not episode, like a sketch. Suit man, you want meat? Yes, man. Yes,
yes, yes. That's with L, right? Yeah, yeah. Food, man. You want me to do the countdown?
Always got me doing shape. Such a legend. Yes, man. Yes. So we actually have. Yeah,
I didn't make the cut for that. Hold on, we got beef, Charles. How did
how did hold not make the cut? I was in there. I cut that. He's a good pig.
You guys know that when Charles said he's a good pig, that was on David David space, right?
And that shit was just gonna go into the abyss. I fucking pulled the Stevie wildcards
and fucking pulled that shit off and started putting he's a good pig on everything.
And Charles couldn't even throw me in the. Right man, I'm a disgrace. I'm a disgrace to this chain,
man. What is going on? No, but I love the content, bro. No, it's all good. So, so the Nike Pig,
I mean, the Nike video was our validation that this attention shit works.
But we went through a full bear market since then, right? Like you could feel it.
And after the Nike, you know, after Nike, everyone piled into Charle, and it was crazy
because we had a lot of hype, a lot of volume. Like we were doing a hundred, two hundred k a day.
We were like. Top ten trending, and then for six months after, we're like top fifty trending.
And so the thing that proved that like we're on the right track is all the Soul Boy, the Soul Boys
came in and bought in, and Salana Dgens come in and they're buying your meme coin.
It's a sign that you're on the right track because they know memes better than any other chain,
right? So we're dealing with people that were fucking around with salami tokens on Telegram. Yeah,
boy. So we had a bunch of D Gods and Youth Boys in there, and the thing that where we fucked up was
we just didn't have Telegram. So Go into it, man. This ecosystem—it's—it's literally.
We're just keeping it simple as fuck. Make funny ass content. Make people retweet it.
Make people share it. And YouTube's the next route. And every move we make is there.
We try to be very peel viewed, just like Charles, right? Um, when it comes to media,
we've seen Baby Snack now succeed on YouTube, and we actually had like last year.
We've always been like, we're gonna go YouTube next. We're gonna go YouTube next. Um, Baby Snack
is now proving, you know, now they're able to monetize YouTube. We're proving it's possible,
and we have content that's, you know, now that. Increase in searches around cryptos
happening right across on Google, on TikTok, on YouTube. It's a time for us to start really going in
on YouTube. And the cool thing about YouTube, it's perfect because you have
all these niche cartoons, niche different TV shows that come in, and they're a million subscribers,
and they're able to sustain it. And so, you know, the ecosystem for us is just like Snec.
Not to go too much into it, but just like Snec is decentralizing the Snec IP.
We're creating an ecosystem with tons of different characters, and and you know the goal isn't
for us to make a TV show for every single character. But someone comes in, right,
and they want to spin off from Family Guy and make the Cleveland show. Then fuck it,
they can take Mr. Moto and be like, audio audio, right? So we our goal is simple, you know,
we just want to make the biggest media ecosystem in the world. And if this keeps going, make
and make people laugh, you know. So that's that's how it goes. The distribution
is just fucking grow, make shit funny. I like it, and I don't know if any
of the co-hosts have questions or comments on this, but I wanted to toss this in there.
I think it would also be beneficial, and you guys probably already have this, you know, planned out.
But you know, like the shorts and stuff too, like even little segments of that episode one
or episode zero and stuff like that. Like those are the little, like you have to like you know.
Fractionalize it or whatever the word would be to get the attention from you know not just degens
but people that like the animation, think it's funny, like the music, like the sound,
like the vibes. So like the shorts and stuff too, like just seeing a ten second clip
or a twenty second clip or a five second clip or something funny. Like those hit the timeline
and those are just easy to chop up and you know keep pushing. So I look forward to cater to
his ADHD. No no no no. The I know we all have our ADHD man. And hold the crazy thing is, bro.
This this is actually where. We, you know, we we we're taking a methodological approach with this,
right? Like we're in the process of cutting short. We've been cutting short since episode was
damn near finished, and that's day one thing thinking that we had. And what we didn't do is
we didn't finish everything because the beautiful thing about Web three when it comes to media is
you get quick validation. If your shit is trash, you know it immediately. When it's good,
you know it immediately, and you know exactly what people, what parts people love, like.
I think the most loved part, beloved part of this show has been Mister TA with Mister Moto,
and you just see Oreo coming in left and right, you know, from the Okay, that brings up my question.
You guys obviously are willing to push the fucking limits like crazy. So, do you have discussions?
No, did you have discussions on where where the line is? Like, do you guys are you guys just there?
Are you guys willing to just go straight fucking wild with it until you get kicked back? Yeah. So.
I think we're in a space. That's the beautiful thing about crypto and Web3, especially Cardano,
is we don't like censorship, right? We don't want. I mean, we see this throughout history.
Censorship is one of the worst things that can happen to a society because this is
when dictators can step in, regimes take control. Essentially, the government can step in
or or powerful people step in and control which how you think, right? And so for us,
it's think south part, man. Like this is the actual great thing. With our limits. Um,
on the internet are bound to YouTube and whatever Twitter will say. But once we start getting to
a point where we can either get to answer a simple question, we don't give a fuck who
we hurt right now. I mean, if we haven't offended somebody in Quipdo yet, it's coming soon. Um,
the second thing is we have a pretty diverse team, so we can get away with a lot of shit.
We can't get canceled, but like that canceled era is kind of over because people are tired of
all that like weak shit. And if something's funny, it's funny. If if you do a low blow,
but it's not clever, people, you know, you'll find out. And it's like the beautiful thing
about comedy is. There's a huge audience for it. Everybody's an audience. Everyone likes to laugh,
right? But like, also, if a lot of people like to laugh at your joke, it's usually
because you did it in a clever way. Like, Chappelle's show talks. Chappelle talks about trans.
Trans. He's not against trans, but like the way he communicates it is fucking hilarious, you know?
And so we don't want to steer away from any topics. What we do want to make sure though is
we just don't get censored if it's not on chain. So unfortunately
on YouTube we're gonna have to bleep a lot of shit because there's all these things we're gonna get.
That's okay. That'll bring it to the chain. You want to see that unedited, you know, decentralized,
you know, version of Charles? You come to the chain. There's no line for us to not cross.
It's just the only. There is one line. We decided early on we want to stay away from weapons.
That's the only line we stay away. Draw is like we don't want weapons, and it's just
because you know the world. The world's already violent enough. I love that. I don't know.
I think Rocky might disagree. Rocky, are you upset that there's no weapons in this series?
Why do you got to pay me to be this Bud Light drink? First of all, let's just set the line straight.
I fucking hate Bud Light. I like Mick Ultra. I hate. Dude, every time we're at the Tigers game,
because that's all they sell. They don't sell Ultras. That's fine. Don't tell me you don't fuck with
it because you're drinking it every time I see you. You can fuck with something and I like them,
you know. Exactly, Sarah. Yeah, but yeah, I don't know if Rocky's too fond of no weapons,
but I definitely like the idea. Okay, I love weapons, but we just don't want to bring ourselves.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I think it's a good idea though, and I think your reasoning
behind it is definitely like simple and meaningful. Like, there's enough violence going on
in the world. Why would we want to like make violence? You know, bring. I don't know. Maybe it's.
I don't know. Maybe there can be a. Unseen version of Char with weapons, but you have to pay like
twenty thousand billion billion fucking tokens or whatever. But yeah, man, I I fuck with it.
I fuck with the vision, and I can't wait to see more shorts. Yeah, can I just ask something to walk?
Do you have weapons? Yeah, guns and stuff. Go ahead. This is not like a this is not a setup,
by the way. It's a genuine question because I have a hilarious idea for you. Did what did you ask?
Do you have weapons, Rock? Oh yeah, a couple. Well, imagine we make a silencer while you're like
Gold Rush right now. Let them cook. Let them cook. Let them cook. Instead of a silencer,
we get a master, and every time that a gun gets shot, it's a shawl silencer. So you, it just,
it's like, you know, it's like a ray gun, squirt gun. But I, I like the, you know,
staying away from violence and blood and gore, because I don't know, those characters
getting chopped up would be crazy. But I definitely did get Adult Swim vibes when I seen
the the episode. I hope MFs down here that are listening. Shout out to Brother Love in the building.
Watch the episode. We got some giveaways going. There's Rocky. What's the questions again?
Do you remember the questions for the giveaways from the episode? I definitely.
What what gets deep throated in in the episode? In what was the animal riding in the spaceship? Was
that the other one? No, the answer the answer to deep one isn't is not my black hawk. Don't worry,
guys. No, but the answer can be found on stage. Yeah, that's crazy. Do they have to come up here
and give their answer, or can or do they just have to post it? Like, how you know?
How are we going to know? Drop the comma. Okay, drop the comma or or come up here.
But I I did want to kind of like scale back a little bit. Charles spoke about you know, hey,
they've taken inspiration from different shows. They love shows. They love music.
So I kind of wanted. Dive a little bit deeper into what the shows or music,
what the inspiration was, what you guys are listening to, what shows you're watching that kind
of inspired you guys to create the show. Because I'm rewatching it now. I'm I have it on my laptop,
but I obviously Love Island. Shout out to Love Island, man! Shout out to Love Island. No,
Billy's not here. You don't have to shout it out. Don't worry. No, it's a funny show.
It's a funny show. I'm sick of this shit. The guy said he was watching Love Island with his wifey.
Tried calling Billy a few nights back to play golf. The guy said he was watching
Love Island with his wifey. I'm sick of this shit. And just like that, he appears.
Have you guys seen? Summoned. Have you guys seen the Aussie version of Love Island? It's so funny,
man. Like, you cannot sound sexy with Australian accent. I'm sorry, guys. Shout out to.
Can you kind of give us like an idea of what that sounds like, Charles? Oh, you know,
right now I just don't have my I don't have my voice. But uh, Quaky, you're looking very. Yeah,
I don't know how to do it right now. I'm not gonna.
I gotta train a little bit for that. Quaky, Quaky, that's a good-looking quack right there.
Now all of Australia has said fuck Charles. Yeah, so the yeah Vroni, you Vroni,
you're talking about what are they? Vroni, you asked Charles. Charles probably drunk or high
or something. Yeah, the the inspiration behind the episode based on you know the love of shows
and music. What was your inspiration? Yes. So for TV for TV shows, the inspiration Chappelle's show
was first and foremost for us. So we're a meme coin, right? So if we drop an episode
and it's a TV series. It's gonna be hard for people to just pick up from episode five, you know.
And it's very hard to create a show with a beginning and ending, but also
a full season that has some type of continuity, right? So we decided, you know,
we're a fucking meme coin. Let's act like a meme coin and just make sketches. And so hold, you know,
you talked about YouTube shorts, and shorts. Well, that's why we decided we need to do
a comedy sketch show because look at Kim Peele. You know, the most viral video that came out of that
was the name where he said all the white people's names fucked up and butcher, right? And. A Amon.
Exactly. So we decided, you know, this this is gonna help us in the best position to grow
when we decided to start expanding to other chains. Chappelle Show, though, is a huge inspiration.
And actually, if you look at our intro, it's damn near the same thing as Chappelle Show. The intro.
We have our character Marshall Jimmy. You know, it's a parody of Jimi Hendrix.
So love some Jimi Hendrix. Love some blues. Blues has inspired some of the music
in episode zero specifically. And and that's just hard to play, but it's it's fun. And there's Yeah,
so shows, Chappelle's Show is definitely one. That's definitely one. The in terms of sketches,
what we tend to do is we just watch a lot of shit in general. Watch the timeline, watch TV,
and we watch South Park. I think the intern watched every single movie that South Park's
come out with, and then maybe. I think he finished a whole show just to do research on like
how we can better write stuff. How do we paste stuff better? And so with South Park, like with,
I've watched some episodes as well. But he's the one who's like really in his bag around it.
And so he sat down, watched every single one. He would rewatch specials specifically,
and see like how do they make stuff funny? How do they set it up? How do they?
What are some wild things that come out right? And South Park has a. I mean,
they're open about their writing style. It's uh. It's like if you write something and it's like
and then or and whatever, it's not. It's boring, right? It's like some.
I can't remember the writing, the specific technique they said online that they shared in
some class, and it's like you. After you write, it should be like something, something,
but something, something. There for something, something, but you know.
So there should be all these different ways to advance the story. So South Park, you know,
the South Park. I'm pretty sure like intern went through and dissected the fuck out of it,
and you know, we were still making the show, so. Shout out to intern. He's down asleep.
That man didn't sleep for two days. And today when he posted it, I was like, "Bro, let's see, man.
" But the oh, shout out the intern. Yes, sir. We give him a lot of shit for him being the intern.
I pay him one charles a day. For every subtitle he wrote, he got one charles.
So he'll be a billionaire after about a thousand, ten thousand episodes, something like that. Yo,
that's oh, the ten thousand collection. No, no, no, no, no. I'm talking about for every episode. No,
I know. Yeah, yeah. So, yeah, the South Park Chappelle show, some stuff that's
a little bit more serious that we draw from. Killing, what's his name? Who's the guy? Jordan Peele.
Get Out. That's a huge inspiration for a movie. The way they create symbols,
he created symbols in that. Us was crazy. The way he sets it up, it's like a thriller horror.
And this what actually anybody will tell you in Hollywood. If you kill it at comedy.
You will kill it in any other sort of genre because comedy is the hardest to conquer.
If you can make people laugh, right? You have to think these guys have done stand up on stage
for years. Then they go in and start writing, and now they have to kind of draw from years
of being doing stand up, years of kind of what worked and what didn't work, and pulling from that.
So a lot of stand up specials, stand up comedians like Shane Gillis, Andrew Sholes, Chappelle.
I'm trying to think of some others that have that have inspired. Can't think of some old ones
right now. But yeah, those are some inspirations when it comes to like going through. I mean,
we I watched a lot of standups partially to figure out how do we, you know, how does music work?
How does you know when you when you're doing something like a a comedy sketch show,
you want you want to create an audience as well, right? So when you watch episode zero,
the audience is pretty not that dynamic. It's pretty flat. This time we decided, you know.
Some drawing from drawing from different comedy sketch shows like Key and Peele
and Chappelle's Show. We went in like, okay, they did different shots, but we're 2D,
and we don't have like a shit ton of animators and a bunch of artists. So we decided, right,
we'll just do these different close-ups and wide shots and medium shots
and make it seem like it's a bunch of people in there, even though it's like the same 12 characters
going in. The fun thing about all this is. Truly, we have to be—we have to be forced in a corner.
You know, people think that creativity is you have an open box, you know, think outside the box,
and the world's your oyster, and all that. Creativity is the best when you actually force with
a bunch of restrictions, right? We're forced because we can't think in
the traditional TV show sense. We—it took—we had to really bite the bullet
and not make the intro the first thing in the episode. You know, the first thing we start off with
is SBF saying "I'm sorry." You know, that's going to get people's attention. And after episode two,
we're thinking a lot about, well. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
That turns me on at night. So, um, yeah, yeah. Chappell, there's so many more I can't even think of
right now. Music-wise, it's so hard to tell. Music-wise, exactly one person, just
because when you know, there's some European artists. There's American artists.
I love hip hop as well. You know, Moon Boy rapped. So that that rap came from intern. Listen to it.
Like I made the bullets back, for example. Intern, listen to it. And he just started
randomly freestyle, and I was like, "What the fuck, bro? You can't freestyle.
" But it actually ended up being a little catchy. And then he wrote down some of this shit,
and and he just he was like, "Yeah," he just kept listening to it, listening to listening to it,
and then freestyle again. We came together, you know. I think we should play that. Like, man,
intern really killed it with that meme. There we go. Ah yeah, I am so pumped. Not gonna lie,
when Trump and sailor top blast the highs and all these memes flying left and right,
turning shrimps into whales just overnight. It reads like a book they were teaching class. G M sir,
but I just wanna touch some grass. Timing wet three moves lightning fast like a blast,
but the masters are slow, so you need to know. The bull is back, it's so alive.
Hope you didn't get wrecked, catch you falling knives. Legends might die, not gonna lie.
But my bags are pumped, dead an all time high. Me on a moon mission. Me and God's my new religion.
Me and that mindset. Starts the ticker, you know you know. Laugh a little harder before it blows.
Babe, you wanna marry me on the moon, 'cause hey, I'm just a moon boy trying to get rich.
When price goes down, I just gotta dip. Holding on my bag. The car is back. It's still alive.
Hope you didn't get wrecked. Catch you all in knives. Deejays might dump. Not gonna lie,
but my bags aren't pumped at an all-time high. Bitcoins on a moon mission.
Millennials one new religion. Charts the ticker, you know you know. Laugh a little harder
before it blows. My life would be boring if it wasn't for the memes, if it wasn't for the memes,
yeah. My life would be boring if it wasn't for the memes, if it wasn't for the memes, yeah.
That was great. That was very catchy. Um, Shara, I like what you said,
and I like I I can see everything, all the inspirations that you were talking about in in your show,
because it's like all relevant things that we've all kind of lived through in this crypto space.
And you're bringing light to it. You're bringing, you know, like comedy to it,
so you can relate to it, and it is funny. And it's nice to hear, like, hey, well,
maybe you know we have these kind of lines that we're like, hey, maybe we weren't, we won't,
you know, move past this line. But at the same time, the line, the lines are a little bit blurred.
So we'll make a joke about this, and we'll make this relevant. And we're dealing with people. Yeah.
So the the lines are a little blurred, and but it's still it's funny because again we're
we're living through it, we've lived it, and it's just I think it's just funny. I think it's great.
So thank you for that. Yeah, I love that you say that. And the thing with the bullet stack.
We came up with this back in October of last year because we're like, we need to get ready.
The bull is coming, right? And actually, like, you know, we can talk specifically about some
of these sketches and what we got inspired by, right? So, with the bull is back, you know,
the scene at the end where it's like going is a pan to the right. It's like Charles and Moon Boys
and you know, Cece and all these other characters, right? It's like panning from left to right.
That's actually inspired by Eminem music video Toby, you know, where he where he's basically saying,
what what was it called? But anyway, in the in the music video, it's like Big Sean, Toby, Eminem,
Babytron, and there's like the scene with them, all three of them going back and forth between them,
and it's just panning to the right, right? And that's where we got that idea from, right?
So it's like taking this hip hop thing that nobody, nobody, you know, everybody loved,
and then making it in a funny twist. You know, it's like Toby McQuay got big ass spider for me.
It was a go. Like, come on, that's actually hilarious too. At the same time,
like Eminem's a funniest rapper, but for both back, that's where we got inspired by there.
For the beginning, you know, Trump and Taylor, top black guys. I mean,
those we could argue that those are the two most notable and most well-known people in crypto,
aside from Charles, right? But like, well-known people that just had such a huge impact, like.
In episode zero, I'll share something. In episode zero, before Michael Taylor really got, you know,
November, we said that before he shared that he's going to do a Bitcoin bank, right?
We we wrote started episode zero in October, the production, and he's giving a speech.
There's a sketch where he's giving a speech, right? And the speech is basically saying,
"I took out all my loans. I sold my wife. I sold my kids. I got all this money so I can buy
more Bitcoin, and it's because I can't pump. I can't pump my my." Public company,
but I can pump Bitcoin, right? And so basically, what he did is he just crazy.
It's like infinite money glitch. Bought a bunch of Bitcoin by taking out loans where there's no.
Without getting too much detail, just can't. It's gonna be hard as fuck to default, right?
And he just said, "Fuck it, I'm gonna buy a bunch of Bitcoin and actually,
MicroStrategy has outperformed Bitcoin." In terms of like how much has jumped up,
so we're also looking at like how are people spinning the narrative, you know?
In in one of the sketches here in SBF, right? There's a new segment with the president of Argentina.
I think maybe we all remember when he dropped that Libra or shared Libra token,
and he was tied to it and pumped and dumped it, and so we're like, fuck it,
we're gonna we're gonna make a funny thing, but instead of trying to Trying to make it complicated
and explain all the details. When we shoot to, when we shoot to, you know, President Malay,
where you know he has these long sideburns, like old school Wolverine did, right? So it's just like,
ah, Wolverine. You know, he thinks he's invincible. If you listen to some of his,
he thinks he's invincible. If you listen to some of his speeches that he gives, and so yeah, we try
and we try and keep it real. We get inspired by the real world, so yeah,
we're really inspired by different music and shows. But like the the formatting
and the style is what we pull from a lot of this stuff. But when it comes to the actual,
what's the story behind it? Like, I'm sorry. SBS South Park actually made a sketch,
a little thing around SBS actually when it first went down, and the thing that he kept saying in
the show was, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. So we're like, fuck,
that's such a funny thing. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Yeah, if you if you type in SBS,
I'm sorry. Uh, Sam Bankfree, I'm sorry. South Park. It's actually so funny, and we're like,
we have to use this. He's on the football field saying, I'm sorry. You know, he's giving
random speeches saying, I'm sorry. So. Yeah, it's a lot. It's a lot.
Kendrick was also a huge inspiration. His music videos are crazy, crazy.
So I see Billy. You finally made it up here. What's up? I do slam. I do slam.

Brony had us with that. I do slam. That's the best you get from Brony. Is it is what it is.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Man, we need to get you to get you some in the show, man.
That voice, you guys need to be in the show, you know. No, don't, do not, Glaze Billy. No,
we we talked about it. It's the list, bro. We talked about it. Don't drop that cake.
I like the Chapelle show though, bro. Like, and y'all stay with that right there, man.
I'm watching all the episodes. I ain't gonna even hold you, and and it kind of touched me.
I don't know if I heard the song before. You already had it on the timeline, but play that,
playing that towards the end of the episode. Man, that that was a that was like
a little emotional tune or something. Is it just me or y'all were feeling that too? Yeah,
those chords that they're hitting are definitely hitting some. I mean,
I think I told you guys a while back. It gave me hook. Was it twenty? What is it? Twenty-one?
Twenty-one pilots? What was it? Help me out here. Yeah, bro, what are you talking about, man?
I'm I'm talking about man. What are y'all talking about? So catch me up, guys. We got we got um.
Do we got some? What are we doing? Well, the hose. We got some giveaways or something or what?
The hose water guys are now even, so you know shit went to hell. But me
and Ho been smoking way too much weed, and other than that, you're caught up. No, Billy,
I got a question. When they, when they, yeah, when the cats are away, the mouse, the mice will play,
huh? Then the cats. For Billy, Ronnie, you got a real, you got a real name. I did. I did.
I was asking like real questions here, and then you showed up. You supposed to be. You're here now.
Thank you. You you glazed the sponsors, so we're glad you're you're back here with us. You know,
whatever you were doing. Hey Ronnie, you're like the female version of Zach. Shut the fuck out. Hey,
but you know, for real, you got to really like when the when the cats are away, the mice will play.
So, like, you know, you got to real rock. You know, but they were doing a good job. They were.
Were they? Yeah, they were. Okay. I do have an idea for a giveaway. Whoever comes up
and does the best Mr. Moto impression from the cartoon wins a giveaway.
Billy is gonna give you something. Please give him an episode. I sent the episodes to you guys,
by the way. Yeah. Yep. You win an episode. You got to come up on speaker
and give your best Mr. Moto impression. Who's your? Can you start it off, Rock? What's that? I said,
can you start it off? No, no, you won't catch me doing that. But I'd love to listen to him. Yeah,
we're we're actually thinking about doubling down on him. And someone in the community said,
if he said the weather, they'd watch. So maybe we figure out some way to make him the weatherman
for crypto. You know, like the one idea we're tossing with the intern last night was, you know,
the bullish bear or was it the green red greed and what's the index called? The greed.
You guys know what I'm talking about, but use kind of that, and maybe there's a way he explained it,
and instead of him saying Oreo the whole time, but like the subtitles actually explain him saying,
we got we got a few funny ideas coming out with Mr. Oreo, just to just to fuck around, you know.
One another one I throw it out there is like they in one of the episodes he finds the voice box
that translates, and he ends up speaking in Japanese, full sentence in Japanese, but then it's like,
oh, it's the wrong one. They switch to English one, but he still has the Asian accent. It's like,
oh shit. Yeah, it's it's a couple couple ideas we cooked up just from the community.
I I want to say like that's I mean you guys probably see this and know this. You guys been doing
Clay After Dark for a while, you guys probably get feedback and suggestions all the time, right,
with your community. And that's what I think is so great about all this is,
if you're doing a TV show or if you're doing YouTube, YouTube is a little bit better
because you see comments. But the beautiful thing about Web3 is people hold your token or your NFTs
and they're in your Discord and they're watching. They'll tell you what they really like, even
if they don't directly tell you exact something specific or how to improve.
We can really learn stuff from this, you know. And so that's why, like,
so many people talked about Mr. Moto, and that's why we want to double down on that. So many,
a lot of people, you know, when we when we drop a sketch and someone mentions a specific joke,
we're like, all right, cool, like that's what it was supposed to do. That's
how it's supposed to make you laugh, you know. So
if you guys have any suggestions, feel free to throw them. We can do a live brainstorming session.
So, can you guys hear me now? Yeah. Yeah.
Not now, though. Is he speaking now? We were. Oh yeah, I had a question for Billy.
Is Billy still there? Yeah, he's there. Yo, Billy, are you alive, bro? I've been here.
What are you talking about? Hey, bro. Listen. Hey, you been ducking the smoke.
You been ducking the smoke, bro. Hey, Rock. I ain't never seen somebody duck so much. I be hit up.
I hit up. Hold it. He be like, Hey, and tell me if I'm wrong, Rock. He be like, He be like, Bro,
I got this ribeye just bought for thirty four dollars. Heck, why don't you just come out
to the ranch? He be like, I got, I got this ribeye. I'm gonna put on the grill.
And then I'm going play nine holes with my pops, man. We got a rain check. We got a rain.
We got a rain check. I be like, bro, don't forget the handicap. Like, bro,
ain't nobody playing golf right now, bro. You supposed to be at work. No, that's that's true.
Tell us about the handicap, Belly. What's up with the handicap? Yeah, what is the handicap, ho?
You tell. They're talking about the handicap between me and you, bro. Hey, bro. All I'm saying is,
in golf, there shouldn't be a there shouldn't be a handicap in golf. There's pros
and then there's amateurs, okay? So when you go out there on that PGA,
when you go out there on that PGA, bro, and you going up against Tiger, you know, you know, like,

Let me check my remote viewray bands. No fucking way. This guy is on a fucking boat
with some random people smoking cigars and drinking mixed drinks. Does this guy know we have a job
to do every fucking Wednesday? For fuck's sake, Addy, we have to glaze our sponsors.
Let me do the glazing tonight. First off, let me thank Ada Handle, Levy Finance, and
Clay Nation for sponsoring our spaces. You guys never give up on Cad, and I know
Cad will never give up on you. And also, I want to thank every single listener here today,
and even on the playbacks, we appreciate all your support every week. Community is everything,
so let's have an amazing show tonight, guys. Let's welcome Shawl to Clay's After Dark. I seen
that new episode, and man, did you guys cook those dejes? And to answer your question,
we are definitely not cooked.
The fucking bull is back, baby. The the the the fucking bull is back, baby.
Hello. Audio. Audio. We're about to tap back in with Char, but Levy's up here to claim something.
I just wanted to mainly come up because I'm super stoned right now, and I wanted to come up
as a fellow host for just to help reoffset the the balance and get it back to natural.
You guys are doing all a great. No one's putting any fucking effort. I appreciate it.
More squatters. More squatters. He comes up and like seems so goddamn easy with you stoners.
I feel like I can just do this now. I'm cool. Like I'll do it too. Make Levy co-host.
Brony don't fuck around. Levy has it all. Make Levy co-host. That's hilarious,
yo. But uh, Charles dips. See what you guys did. He scared the man off.
Brony, what you giving away tonight? So we said you were doubling any giveaway we were having.
So you know whoever comes up and does whatever Rock said. Rock, what'd you say again?
He said if they did something like an impersonation of something. Yeah, from Mister. Yeah,
from the from the Cheryl video, they got to do their best impersonation.
Pers impersonation of Mister Mota. How do you say it,
Cheryl? Mister Mota. Yep, that's it, Mister Mota. Right on.
Evil Eye, can Evil Eye come up here? He's a great community member too. Yo, Evil Eye
got one of the the one uh the giveaways for the what was deep throated. You guys can go look it up.
And no one has got what's in the spaceship yet. It's crazy. But yeah, we're doing those giveaways.
Those are some fun pop quizzes for the new episode that's live. It's pinned on Charles' Twitter.
And yeah, Billy, we're giving away a whole bunch of shit. We got fucking what episode zero.
We got CAD backgrounds. We got what else? We got lighters that we're fumbling with on our desk. No,
you can't. That's the only one I got here. Let's spark this off. Carl,
you said the Chappelle show is such an inspiration. So, we're gonna see like some type
of Rick James character. Rick James, bitch. I'm Rick James, bitch. Gotcha, bitch. Yeah, so. Yeah,
yeah, we'll we'll have. So we've thought about just a bunch of different characters to draw from
as well. Rick Jank. Oh man, that character is so legendary. That character is so legendary.
We'll we'll have a lot of inspired characters for sure. I mean, if you look at
the episode zero NFTs, we have sixty nine one of ones, and season one is gonna have
every single character in the show at least once. So one of those characters will figure out having
a personality. I don't know if you guys saw the crypto debate one, but we had Elon pump in there,
Elon Musk, and he had. We basically gave him. I don't know what we gave him a bunch of stars
and stuff, you know, and. It was fun, man. I mean, we want to take all these characters
that exist in the real world and just exaggerate their funny features. So, Rick, Rick James, man.
I didn't even, to be honest, until you mentioned this, I didn't even think about it.
But now we will. Probably, you know, subconsciously, all this shit's coming. I, I, I, I,
I love meme, meme, the memes. These that the damn, damn, kid, kid, just kidding, and kid,
lolos to the vogue, vogue, vogue virus, vogue,
vogue virus. Ooh, my friend sick from vogue virus. No, he's strong.
No, he cut off the funniest part. Bunga, I confused because he was not strong when men. All right,
I'll repeat the question because no one's answering. Are we cooked? As I was trying to say earlier,
stocks, bombs, real estate and this guy spits more than an OnlyFans model.
Okay, I'll ask the question for you, Brony.
Brony had a question, but she was too scared to ask. When female characters
dumped him. Hello. We can hear you now. Yeah, we're we're here. Yeah, I didn't say nothing.
I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. So we we will have one. We have Jenny Wulf.
She's my the love of my life, and we'll be having that at sketches in the future.
Jenny Wulf is inspired by Linda. So yeah. Um. Aside from that, we do have a couple characters
in the one of ones. We have. I think. Yeah. I think we did. We had like a bunch of character.
We had like one hundred something character. We brainstormed and we cut it down to nine.
I think we had Kathy Wood in there. I don't know if you guys know Kathy Wood,
but she got super popular during COVID because she made she was
the first institutional hold Bitcoin. They said they said that Tesla would be a ten trillion like
five years ago. They bought like real every single like disruptive innovative stock.
So Kathy was one of them, but I actually don't remember if we still have her. Even
though we will have her, we have who else do we have? We have a couple. We have a couple of them.
The problem is we're all guys, so we got to figure out how to do those voices. Veroni,
if you want to be one of the voices, you know you can yell into a mic. I was gonna ask,
what is Kathy Woods' ethnicity, and if you guys were integrating any, you know,
different different backgrounds into this, aside from what you. Whoa! You know who Kathy Woods is.
She's an old white lady. Yeah, yeah. We're we're all about representation. Um, we love.
She's an old white lady. That's correct. We we my PR guy just texted me what to say.
We are all about representation, equity, and hey, shut the fuck up, baby.
And what is this inclusiveness? What is it? Di, yeah, sorry. We have a new di policy, so yeah, yeah.
So so what is what is what is this phrase again, Rock? That people have to come up and say.
Can it be said in Spanish? Yeah, they just got to impersonate. That'd be
kind of tough to impersonate that dude in Spanish, but they can give her hell. Are you Hispanic,
Brody? Is that why you are asking? I am. Yes. Okay. Okay. Well, we will come up with actually
with Donde está el zapatería. Donde está la biblioteca. Yeah, Fruto Arubano.
Is this all from like your high school? You know, like Spanish that you guys learned this? No, no,
no. This is from community. Donde está la biblioteca. Very nice.
So now we know where the library is and where where the shoe place is. Very good.
I can rap that whole song if you want. In Spanish, you can rap it. Yeah, yeah. All right,
let's do it. I'm gonna stop at the third line though. It's actually two Americans
rapping it with a terrible accent on purpose. Have you have you seen that? Have you seen uh?
Yeah. No, that. Yeah, go ahead and do it.
That sounds hilarious. I will play it. You guys ready to get naked?
Bro, what are you talking about, man?
I feel like I'm in a hood party, bro. Where'd you bring me, man?
Is Charles cutting off for anybody else, or is it just me? Yeah, he actually. Damn. Yeah, he rugged.
I was able to listen to some of it, but not most of it. Yeah. I don't know what just happened.
It was a Spanish hold. That's why. Did you even get anything from that? No, it was so cutting. Yeah,
only some, some about the library, and then more library, and that was it. Did it work?
Did it stop working? No, it was cutting out bad. What happened to your furniture, cut?
Bro, those those two kids running in the street with the boombox attached.
You know what I'm talking about? No, this is from Community. The Troy Nobis show.
I just love how like we've manteca. The only thing you can like rhyme with it is manteca,
which is lard. So that's funny. They were studying Spanish, you know. They're in community college
studying Spanish, so. I think I picked up in there. The beers are good. Was that in there, Brony?
Do they say cerveza? Pretty sure they. Rock would know. Did they say butano? Yeah. It's cervezas.
Butano. Cervezas, bueno. See. You would pick that up, wouldn't you? Selective listening. All right,
so I got a general question for Charo. I get you. So we got the episodes. So,
so you got the episodes coming on. I'm sure they're scheduled and whatnot,
and then the shorts from the episodes. Is there any way that, um, like collaborations?
Is there is there a way? I mean, we have collaborations, like me personally, but I'm saying like,
is there a way that you can collaborate and connect with other projects or artists,
or if people want to, let's say, I don't know, like. Or you know, like hire you guys for services
for like animations and stuff like that. Is that ever going to be a thing,
or are you guys pretty much like sticking to your episodes and just promoting that? Like,
do you have any side gigs going, or like you know, side projects or collaborations? Yeah.
So actually, late last year in December, yeah, December, we did get hit up by a lot of people
for gigs when we were dropping sketches like every week. So we made two videos—one for Donzo,
two videos for Donzo, and then for another project as well—and then. We did their like announce,
like it was some announcement about something they were bringing, and then we have gotten a few DMs
here and there, every couple weeks, to help projects do animation, so other meme corners ended up.
But we just realized, like the the thing is, we came we we came here to basically have fun
and create funny content, you know, and the. Goal is to create entertainment at the end of the day,
right? And so it gets kind of boring and very tedious when we work with other projects
that want something serious or announcement. But also, it takes a lot of effort when it's
cause someone comes with us with a script and it's like really bad, you know? Like we,
it's really tough because we're when we do our episodes, we hold the whole nine,
we do the whole nine from ideation to audio, s you know, sound effects.
And so when we work with other projects, it we lose. The audio's great, by the way.
Thank you so much. The audio is great. I don't know if you're in the in there
and if you're the engineer, Charles, but I know we did some work and that shit is always fire, bro.
You guys know how to. The production over there is top tier. And I taught myself doing it
for 20 years. I love it. I love it. Thanks, man. Yeah. So yeah, the answer to the question
is right now. In terms of collaborations, for sure, we want to do collaborations with bringing,
maybe like working with community. I mean, we've talked in DMs and group in in the chat we're in
to bring plays after dark. That got kind of sidelined on our side on our side, and that's our fault.
But episode. We needed to really work on the episode, and now that we have like a full plan,
you know, we we do want to do some sketches, one sketch at least every so often,
and so there's definitely room for opportunity. The main thing we're focusing on right now
is getting next episode done, and then growing the team. You know, the the big bottleneck for us is,
you know, we're amateur writers when it comes to sketches, and we've leveled up a lot.
We've studied, try to do as much peer review research as we can, and you know, our mentor,
the person that like helps us when it comes to the sides, like. Just keep going. Just keep creating.
You know, if people like it, then you're on the right track. So, for us right now,
it's like in terms of working with other projects or communities or teams,
it's more so on the side of if we can find a funny sketch idea to work on together,
have the characters in. You know, hold. I know you you do a lot of music.
I also think that we discussed in the past, like doing a song. We have song together, but doing
other music or having your voice, having other people from the team's voice, and we want to try
and do stuff like that. Right? It's difficult when the team is small. We have, I mean,
two animators, right? So This this episode was made with four people, and so when you talk about
doing every single part of it, right, like doing with low budget, making sure everyone's happy,
everyone's paid, when it's coming out of our pockets, it's tough. So yeah, I mean, at
the end of the day, it's yes. The answer is yes. As long as there's some animation costs
that are covered on both sides, we can make anything happen. And as long as it doesn't detract from
our mission of dropping a season, the whole season by end of the year. I like it.
So what's the time frame looking like? Like monthly? So we kind of yeah.
So the answer is no to that. It's it's kind of depending on how we get better and better.
So just give some context. Episode zero took six weeks. This episode episode took us six months,
and we. Took a lot more time because we needed to make sure we understood the full process
at a slower rate, and so the next one, fingers crossed, two months, three months.
But as we bring out more episodes and we grow more, we're able to bring on more animators.
So the goal is, I mean, South Park. I don't know if you've seen the documentary about South Park.
It's like I think it's called something like the six days or something like that,
where you know South Park does their episodes in six days. Stressful time.
It's very stressful to do that that quick. We've done animations in 24 to 48 hours.
It's gotta be hard because like the relevancy. Like I'm sorry to cut you off, man.
Like you guys are kind of like wait, you guys are kind of like waiting in the emergency room,
like doctors. Like whenever some shit pops off, like okay, we gotta get to work.
You know what I mean? Like people that already have like a script, like you know we have friends
and you know we just you know I'm just saying in general, like you know people are writing scripts
and like different TV shows and these shows can you know pretty much be you know planned
multiple seasons. You know the type of content that you're creating is like so relevant that it's
kind of hard to stay ahead of. You know the trends. You kind of have to get them right
when they come out, and then, you know, hurry up and get out a great piece of content that
people can absorb. So, dude, that's a lot of pressure. Like, and yeah,
you guys do deserve to have a you know some more teammates, and hopefully the exposure
will bring you know you'll be able to monetize and have multiple ways of revenue and stuff. But,
dude, it just got to be stressful because you're, you know, you guys are sitting at the tables
probably like, yo, we have things to work on, but like when these hot Big things come out.
You might want this to be a part of your next episode. So we might have different animators doing
certain things, and I can only imagine, bro. Like with a small team. Yeah,
I mean to give you guys an idea, we decided for this episode we wouldn't share until we were we
we were like when it was like twenty five or ninety nine percent done. We were like, all right,
we're like forty percent done, because the the the thing you see in crypto a lot
is people just straight up are like, oh, it's coming next week, and then next week comes,
and people get pissed, and then it takes another week, another week, and so for us,
it's like we're not even sharing when. Things are almost done because it creates
this false expectation, and people just—I mean, you guys know this. In crypto,
everybody thinks they're expert, and I mean, how do you do music? You guys run a show,
like people don't realize how much work goes behind even creating this show, right? On a weekly,
you gotta do the research, you gotta go in and and actually know who the guests you're bringing on.
You gotta coordinate with each other, get on a call with each other to make sure everything's on
top. I mean, you guys been doing a long time, so I bet you figure out a really good process.
But at the same time, I bet you know the first couple months took some getting used to
and how to work together. So yeah, yeah, so. I mean, from October of last, I think no, no, no, no.
From September, August to October of last year, we basically tried to put out two to three sketches
a week, and the goal was to get to one sketch a day. But the problem is,
just we didn't want to compromise on quality. You know, it's hard to make really quality content
with just four people, and so we were like, all right, let's do episodes, focus on episodes,
and then chop them up, and we can have content running while we get episode two ready
and three ready. And if we have time, you know, do other stuff, other sketches. Yeah,
we we I mean we want to bring on another writer and another animator, and if we can do that,
we can pretty much shorten the time frame because we're doing everything with two animators,
and then I'm doing music. Interns mostly handle writing,
but you know we're working all together on every single aspect of this thing.
I hear you, bro. And my follow up question to that is: any AI implementations?
Are you guys taking advantage of? Anything AI related for I know it's early off, but you know,
I was gonna learn you know 3D and Blender and all that, and then I'm like,
let me just focus on sharpening the tools that I already have because I feel like AI is around
the corner where you can just upload your 3D assets and be like, I wanted you know this background
and basically just be a writer and animator just by you know prompting things.
So I'm not sure about the tech and what's out there. I'm sure there is some things
that are out there. But are you guys using anything AI wise at least for like you know
your your workflow or organization or You know, scripting or stuff. Yeah.
So the main thing we use AI for two parts. One is we're not professional writers,
and the animators have the animators we have on our team worked on a pretty big TV show
in their country, so they're used to a specific style, and so we use ChatGPT to basically format
the scripts, right? I think also there's like between artists. I know a lot of artists.
It's like divided in the art, the music community as well as the film community, right?
Where Half are like, oh, we gotta take advantage of this, and they're the ones that are gonna
probably be the next era of creators. And then you have the other half being like,
AI is gonna take away humanity. And it's like the way I see it's no different than internet.
You know, internet came and people thought, oh, it's all this anonymous people.
And so the answer to your question is so ChatGPT is one. The second thing we do is we're not
professional voice actors, man. So we do use a lot of the stuff we do, we do do ourselves.
But we trained some models using AI, and it was a lot of work. A lot of work. I mean, if you go back
and listen to Charles' voice, we do use like we mentioned this way early in the days.
We do use AI to an extent on Charles' voice. His voice stems from Charles Hoskinson's voice,
my voice. So, but it took us a long time. Like six to seven months of dropping episodes,
and it's like ah, this this sounds like it's too sharp here, or this undertone feels weird,
or we can't get this emotion, and it was a lot of figuring out. And so, we now have Shaw's voice,
which is you know we we also pay attention a lot to AI and IP laws, right?
And some of the sound effects, like some of the sound effects, we definitely use software for that
because we're not gonna go and make every single sound effect that take us like eight months,
nine months to create each episode. But we in the episode at the end credits,
we do attribute all the credit. And so, yeah, we have models, but also we play a lot like
with our voice. I've seen the the credits are so funny. Diddy Shadow. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Uh, yeah,
yeah. I watched all the way to the end. Yo, I should have had a quiz about. All right, yeah.
We got another pop quiz. Oh no, where's Billy? Yo, what? Hey, yo, what? Where's Love Island? Yo,
what's going on down there, man? I don't know what he's doing. He's making a sandwich.
He better be charging up that VR. He's watching Love Island with his wife again, man. Yeah,
I I feel like we met before, Cheryl. Have we? We have once. We have, yes, we have.
It was a fun time. It was a fun time. We didn't drink enough. I didn't. I didn't drink at all. Yeah.
Yeah, he said he wanted tequila. But I don't know where the fuck to get tequila. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Straight out the freezer. Yeah. He wanted syrup tequila. That should get thick. Yeah,
but we'll have a Cardano summer. So yeah, bro, what are we doing with Cardano summer, man?
What do we got? Some alpha, man. Yeah, we gotta. We need to do our side on that animation side
for sure. I I think that that song drop would be fire. We definitely need to.
We definitely need to find some more music to work on because man, that'd be fire. Yeah,
that shit is fire. We might have to spin that just to take a little music break
and catch some vibes. That was my first time riding. Yeah, I don't even think this version
of the drive is the one with the raps on it, though. I think it's just the guitar sample, isn't it?
No, no, we had we had added the raps, no. No, I know there's a verse, but the Discord drive,
the one that says "Hold Cardano Summer," I think is just the guitar solo. No way!
Hold on one second. One second. Did we? Yeah, it says Final V2. I'm not sure. This V2.
I have a bunch of. Wait for me. V2 is it? One second. One second. It should be in our chat.
One second. Let me see. We have it in our chat, actually. Yes, Final V2. That's it. That's our side.
You're wrapping in final V2. Okay, let's let's spin that, and we'll come back
and close up the section. See if we missed anything from Charles. Get some get some last thoughts.
Any questions from the people that are in the crowd? And do some giveaways. Drop a Ada handle.
Drop a comment. You may or may not be lucky tonight. Chances are you will be lucky.
We're giving out. All whitelist. We got a bunch of those. You want to get whitelist to Ada handles
new mat? Drop a drop a comma. Do a little sum sum. We got CAD gifts. You know,
search Clay's out the dark. Drop a gift too. That's that's vibes. But let me play Cardinal Summers.
It's been a minute, and I'm about to crash out because Billy and Rock and was not Rocky. Rock. Nah,
my bad. I'm I was actually I'm actually driving and I disconnected, bro. My bad. My bad.
I didn't even know. We're about to crack the on. Man, I didn't even know I dropped down. My bad.
Yeah. Breathe in. Breathe out. There's no need to crash out. Yeah. Breathe out.
There's no need to crash out. There's no need to crash out. There's no need to crash out.
There's no need to crash out. There's no need to crash out. There's no need to crash out.
It's a Kardashian summer. Throw a pool party in the middle of the desert. Yeah. You know Charles,
that's my brother. I've been so bullish, man, I cannot even measure. I've been so bullish,
Dr. Oz calls me professor. I've been so bullish, man, I'm 'bout to pull the lever.
I've been so bullish, I could probably change the weather. I've been so bullish,
don't make me apply the pressure. Drop the location, I'm in vacation. This is dedication,
you need meditation. Yeah, I got confirmation straight from the foundation. Shoutout Catalyst
and everyone who made it. I'm just sending DMs all like congratulations. You been on the timeline,
acting a little crazy. You know what's on my mind? Why they always hate me? Now we celebrating.
Breathe in, hold, hold, hold. Breathe out, hold, hold, hold. There's no need to crash out.
There's no need to crash out. There's no need to crash out. There's no need to crash out.
There's no need to crash out. There's no need to crash out. I'm weeping for the first time
on Halsey. We're banished to Boulder, tweet for 20 times like they get to bang your bags
with the heads and mama's wax. Cardi, no summer is not a fling. The white meme is gonna make
you jinx, sir. Just laugh harder. Charlotte's doing alchemy by turning fud into a meme. Yeah,
it's a card of a summer throw a pool party in the middle of the desert. Be no shards, my brother.
I've been so bullish, man. I cannot even let you. I've been so bullish that the odds go to
the fessor. I've been so bullish, man. I'm 'bout to pull the lever. I've been so bullish
I could probably shoot whoever. I've been so bullish, don't need me to pull the trigger. Hold, hold,
hold. Breathe in. Hold, hold, breathe out. Hold, hold.
There's no need to crash out. There's no need to crash out.
Yeah, man, snapped on that. There is a little. You snuck in a little verse in there, huh?
Little sneaky, sneaky. Yo, Charles has. Charles is a man of many talents. I'm not gonna lie.
First thing first, we stick to the comedy. Then the man pulls the guitar out.
Then he pulls the verses out. You know. Then I'll pull the ribeye out, throw it on the grill,
and then I'll throw the VR out the window because Billy's waiting in the lobby ready to scam me.
And then. Then we. But. Then we sit and watch Love Island. Yeah, straight up, Charles. You watching
Love Island? I've seen a couple episodes with family, but I don't watch every you know a lot, a lot.
It's funny. You're not a fan. Oh, you're not a fan. No, it's not that.
Are you just having had the time? Yeah, I think it's more of like a lot of the videos and TV shows
and stuff I watch, and more like to draw inspiration or things that you know. I'm not.
It's less consuming. There's some pretty viral shit that happens in Love Island, though.
I'm not gonna watch. I haven't even watched the show, and I've and I know like five characters
and how people act, and you know some certain scenarios that happen, but. Yeah,
you gotta have your finger on the pulse, bro. Hundred percent, man. I mean,
you gotta watch a little bit everything, you know. Yeah, yeah, and you gotta listen to a little bit
of all kinds of music, man. Yeah. And I do appreciate that too. Yeah, man. The homies versus.
Oh yeah, so I did want to answer, tell you something, bro. And you wanna? I mean,
I didn't really go too much into detail, but two of my favorites are John Mayer music-wise,
and then Rick Rubin. Rick Rubin's just legendary. Like the guy doesn't know any music,
any production. He just literally got cool, good as fuck off of vibes, and honestly, like.
That's next level musician. Where I know as two friends that one is like very educated in music
and is, I mean, very fucking fantastic as an engineer. The other guy literally learned music off
of YouTube videos, and both of them working together just unstoppable. And I sat down with both,
and they both teach me some shit crazy shit. That's kind of Rick Rubin is like my second friend,
where he just knows the way how like how music makes people feel, how like a certain instrument
or a certain sound where spatially it exists. So and he knows like sounds
you know they can make shapes and shit he understands the science behind it's crazy
but yeah those are my two favorites and do draw a lot of inspiration not music wise
but in terms of like thought process and production and how do you think of good music you know
and and at the end of the day think music for us I mean just to you know hold I think
you would understand this as a musician as well but like When artists produce and drop something,
and people love it and react, doesn't matter how many views it gets. Doesn't matter if it gets to
ten people or a hundred thousand people. When you today, when we are seeing the comments of people,
it's like soul food for artists. You know, seeing people react positively because I think
media can outlast all of us. And at the end of the day, I don't really give a fuck who knows
who I really am, who the intern really is. If they remember and laugh at this one joke,
and it continues making people laugh, just like South Park will, you know, be in the history books.
I think that's. One of the greatest achievements you can achieve in life. Timeless, yeah,
being timeless. Exactly. I love it. That's Rick Rubin, you know. He's gonna be timeless.
People don't know that he's touched some of the top productions in hip hop
without ever even really knowing music. From a, from a, doesn't know how to play any instrument,
you know. I do. I can play guitar, and I started off on piano. So we have, we, you know,
there's just different level of being able to tune into the right energy, right,
when you listen to music and produce it. Oh, I'm all about it. I'm all about it. Rocky Vroni,
you guys doing good? You need drinks, refills? Need some coffee. I got you. Need some popcorn.
I could use a little one of your pre rolls if you had one handy. Damn, you sound good.
What'd you just do? Hook us up in a studio? Bro, ho, that makes me think, man. It was so funny. Me
and Ho were smoking together, and I took his took his smoke, and I forgot, walked away. Yo,
Charles yanked my smoke and was just poofing on it all night. I'm like, hey, yo, where's my pen at?
It was a great time. It was a great time. Oh yeah, it was a great time.
He got Charles got to hit some of that that Detroit bubble hash. He was like, ooh,
this isn't some regular shit. That amnesia. No, Rocky, he hit us. Rocky, he had amnesia, bro.
I had amnesia all all around that bitch. Like the day after, when we walked past, I was like, wow,
bro, just glass tips all over the sidewalk. But but Charles was hitting one of those seven tens,
those those little white ones that I was showing you. Ooh, my fave, yeah, yeah. And he was like.
He hit it like once or twice, and he's like, "That shit's really good." Can I can I can I
hit it again? I was like, "Yeah." Then I was talking to people, and like an hour and a half went by,
and I'm like checking my pockets. I'm like, "Yo, where's this?" I see Charles like dingling
and dingling with artists and shit. I'm not gonna lie though, it was crazy though because the way me
and Holger shared like going passing that thing around, it was like we were secret agents
or something because we just like, yo, bro, can I get it? Just be dapping up, walk by, just.
You know that? What is that? Is it Mission Impossible or what's that one?
What's that one scene where they have like the card and like all the people are passing the card
between like? Oh, you talking about Inside Out? I know, I know, I know. Now you see me, too.
Now you see me, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Now you see me. You know that clip where they're like got the card
and like all the security's looking? That was me and Charlo, bro. Hey, shout out to Dino. Oh,
did I mention this was? Did I mention this was in a public library? No, I'm just kidding.
It was an airport. No, no, I'm just kidding. It was an airport. No, I'm just kidding.
It was at a funeral. It was oh yeah. The kids, the kids were doing the. Was it don't do tobacco,
do weed instead. So funny. Do THC instead. Yeah man, I love it. Does anybody got questions?
Like Charles, did we miss anything tonight? Like I want to make sure we covered all the things that
you want to spill on the community and keep them updated. I know it's a little,
the format is a little off. Billy sleeping, Rockies snoozing. Oh man, I enjoyed it, man.
You gotta roll with the punches. You gotta roll with the punches. Honestly. Yeah yeah. Honestly uh.
You know, we got Rock up here, deep, deep, deep voice, deep, deep voice. We got, you know,
Roni up here, coming out with the right questions, DEI questions. Um, and and now,
now I'm gonna be inspired, and we'll write something where we need a Spanish person. So, thank you.
And we actually have Spanish people in our community. So definitely, we do. Yeah,
we have a lot of Spanish people. Not not a lot, but you know, a a good amount of Spanish people
in our community. But I appreciate that. I appreciate you coming up and just you know taking
some some of the feedback and being like, okay, how can we make this better? Again,
I did watch the first place. I was trying to get you know all of Holds like answers.
I couldn't get through it. You know, we were talking about the ADHD. I don't have like
diagnosed ADHD, but I was like, "Well, shit! Like, this is only 17 minutes long,
and I'm trying to get through it." But I restarted it like seven times. Yeah, happens. And I'm like,
"Where is this?" Well, I've watched it. I'll be honest with you, Rony. I was editing this shit,
and I've watched it 200 times. And I'm not gonna lie. Every two minutes,
I like start doing something like get on my phone and start reply guying or some shit.
So I feel you exactly. Yeah, I mean the next episode we've we've we actually reading. You know,
Mr. Beast. This is random as fuck, but Mr. Beast has a, and I recommend anybody doing video content
to do go read this. But Mr. Beast has a doc, like a twenty or I don't know if it's twenty pages,
thirty pages, fifty pages, but he basically has this document that he gives every single employee,
and it's just been opened and given to the world. Where he, it's shitty writing, and he says it,
but it's like. He's the king of video content. He says, like, I'm gonna show you how you make videos
that people get hooked on, and it's it's to a science, you know. And so the next videos,
we're gonna pander to everyone's ADHD and keep you hooked by giving you an outline of a Lamborghini
or like a a blurred look of a Lamborghini and be like, it's the fastest car ever,
and the next cut is a minivan. So we're we're we're gonna have a lot, you know.
We're gonna create a TV show that's very social media friendly moving forward. So somebody,
I'm sorry, somebody in our community was asking if there is a seed phrase hidden in the episode.
Shit, the cat's out of the bag. We're gonna announce it tomorrow. I guess we still will.
The intern wanted to be up when we shared it, but I guess this is the first peek. Alpha alert.
So there's a. Now you bozos have to watch it. We've been fucking giving away shit, doing this.
You can have the whole Cardano treasury if you get the seed phrase that's inside of episode episode
one. You guys are crazy. Actually, it's the it's the. Wait. So can we talk more about this,
or or no? It's a secret. Yeah, we can talk about it. Let's do it. What's in the What's in the wallet
What's in the box So I'm not gonna show that until tomorrow because the intern not promised.
Come on, give us a little hint. I know there's more than one thing in there.
I know there's episode zero. There's episode. What else we got? It's like it's like. I know.
Is there? There better be a billion fucking charles in there. I'm telling you right now.
It's like eight nine hundred dollars worth of tokens and shit in there. So multiple tokens. Yeah.
How much snack you got? We'll show that tomorrow. We'll show that tomorrow.
You got angel tokens in there? Show that tomorrow. Thumbs up! Come on, listen, listen, listen.
For the sake of our sponsors, you gotta at least give us a thumbs up or a thumbs down.
The people will get delayed; they won't even know what's going on. We got some names. We go find
that tomorrow. Okay, I like it. That's an alpha. That's an alpha. Yeah, shout out the CAD portal.
CAD portal's going heavy. So yeah, yeah. So we. We so I'll say this. We definitely want to create
more media that's community driven, right? So we want like from the whole right.
We haven't done that too much yet. Like the way the community's helped us with ideas is,
for example, we we have like one guy in our community, Markey. He's probably one
of the funniest people I've talked to and encountered with in Discord,
and he just says the most funny shit randomly ever. Like it's a red candle. He's like, oh man,
the devs rubbed us, and everybody in the community knows he's joking. But it's just like the timing
of it. Like his comedic timing is so great. I think one of the best things about this is
we get ideas from the community, and we want to actually over time be even more integrated with
our community in terms of like writing, ideation, etc. And so one of the things we do,
and you know this is where we can get into a little bit more the meme side, meme coin side.
It's like one of the things we want to do at some point is we get big enough, people gotta auction.
We auction off, you know, we create an auction or something where you get to have a unique character
of you or some character do you want charlified? That's an episode, right?
Or your name gets put in there. And I think the bigger this we can grow,
and the bigger our community gets, we're able to really honor this in a unique way.
And so right now, what we're doing is like we have a lot of core community members, like ten,
fifteen people that have been there since really the beginning, beginning. And so in episode zero,
we have like two names in there from our community. In this one, we have Doctor Markey,
the guy who's making fun of Bendover, or you know, for the NPC syndrome. So yeah, yeah.
Going back to the giveaway, I can go on a tangent. I'm Charles. I'm like
the the the cartoon Charles. So, but yeah, the giveaway. It's looking at the wallet right now.
Let's see. It's like eight nine hundred dollars worth. So there's a seed phrase within this episode.
That's crazy. Okay. And these words are written down, or they're is that what it is?
It's all written and hidden. Oh my gosh! Oh wait! Oh wait! And there's numbers next to him. Wait,
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait! This wait, wait, wait! It's already been claimed. Wait,
this is too easy, Charles. Wait, you put the numbers next to it. But it's gonna be hard to find
because I went through and like spent half a day. Nah, nah, nah. Okay, you guys. So yeah,
you guys have a great night. Thank you all for coming to Clay's After Dark. I hope you guys have
a great weekend. Um, yeah. Yeah, I mean the thing is, we want to make it.
Both going on the hunt right now. Yeah, we're we're the thing is we're entertainment brand first,
right? So I'm air dropping this to my seven. I'm air dropping it to my 95 inch TV
and I'm bringing a magnifying glass out. And all the homies are coming over. Guys,
get in the living room. We got a job for the night. I'm about to got my have like 20 people
in my living room with magnifying glass to 85 inch TV watching the whole thing for like two hours
till we get the whole scene. Let's go. Then we'll be good. No, but that's that's a cool thing
right there. I'm not gonna lie, I like the whole hiding the seed phrase thing,
and you're actually making it. You know, there's levels to the shit, so I like the. Yeah, I mean,
we we want to talk to major studios too, right? And like, the goal is we're not. I mean, we
either scale it ourselves, or we're gonna have to bring in a bigger. I mean,
bigger production company, you know. And that's the cool thing. Mentioned South Park
signing a deal with Paramount. Think about it. This is 1.5 billion with Paramount.
Imagine how much they made in the last 15, 20 years. How much? How big that brand is now, right?
I mean, we're a fucking meme coin. You see, you see meme coins, killing billions. And yeah, I mean,
there's a lot of things we can do that's fun, and that's the beautiful thing about being in Web3 is
we can create more engagement in the videos, and I mean, even this, right?
Like showing this that there's even some traction. A lot of things we can do with that. All right,
breaking news. I just cried, but then I'm not crying anymore because I heard
that it's not been claimed yet. Actually, you know what? It's been claimed.
You guys don't have to be on the search anymore. I already found all the words. So yeah,
everyone go to sleep tonight. You know, sleep well. That's what Billy's doing. Motherfuckers.
You motherfuckers, man. Rocky isn't tired. That's why Zadie's not here. You motherfuckers, man. You
and Levy's here because they can't claim it because they're in the fucking prize wallet.
So Levy's just here to to glaze. This is you motherfucker. Zaddy's on a boat already spending
the billion fucking charo he got. Billy just got cashed out. He's in the listening section.
Roni doesn't even know that it hit. Rocky's just playing dumb. Wait till I pull up
to the next Tigers game, bro. I'm throwing the first pitch. This is ridiculous. No,
but I heard it's not been claimed. So that's cool if it hasn't been claimed. I hope it's really,
really, really fucking hard. Like really, really fucking hard. You know, I hope it's not an easy.
I'll say this. So I mean, you you kind of said something spot on. So whoever finds it will be
a billionaire. Uh huh. I know. I know. Wait. So can we see the wallet? Can we? Oh,
that's tomorrow's news. Yeah, we say it tomorrow. Okay. Well, is there? Okay.
This is my other question. Is there an Ada handle in that wallet? No, it's not. What? What are you,
bro? I'm not even looking for the fucking shit no more. That, that, there's no Ada handle
in that wallet. It's not. All right, this scavenger hunt is crazy, bro. What are you talking?
There's not that fucking Ada handle in your fucking wallet, bro. Bro, stop looking for it.
Just stop looking for it right now because I got my pen and a book right here. Yo, Jason's honor.
Don't bother. Jason's honor. He's got 35 AI bots. Going, searching. I can't find the first word,
but I found the second and third. But bro, where did you hide the first word?
I've been checking the beginning like five times now. Can I just tell you how?
Like this is the peer review moment. We we kind of talk about right. So we thought, you know,
how do we bolster up our social media metrics? Well, if everybody going to go on a scavenger hunt,
they're gonna have to watch the video again and again. Amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing.
Yeah, we got billionaires on this space, so y'all don't need this eight hundred dollars.
But you guys should just leave it for me because I need it. Y'all don't need this.
Rocky's a billionaire. Vroni's a billionaire. A lot of you guys are billionaires. Vroni's a grand.
It's nothing for you guys. Yo, Jason, I hope you find it, bro. And when you do, um, yo, I'm still,
I'm still, I'm still confused on how there's not a A to handle on Mount Wallet, bro. That's crazy,
bro. It should be like the scavenger. It should be like the Charles Scavenger Hunt.
You know what I'm saying? But you know, don't you? I say this. I say this.
It's not the only one we're doing or will be doing. Mmm, I like it. I like it. Well, keep cooking.
Keep cooking. Is there anything else that we missed? Because shit, we circled back around
and we got some fire. So I'm not scared to ask again if there's anything that we missed
before we wrap up the space, send everybody on their way for the weekend. Yeah, I'll say.
I'll just say this. It's nothing you guys missed, man. First, it's been a fun time. I mean,
you guys are hilarious. I think the person that talks the most and should speak less is Billy.
I know he's very present, and yeah, it's great. But yeah, I'd say if you guys want to support,
get some Charles. You know, Charles is a ticker, master of the utility.
If you really want to support the animation side, buying an episode, you get a PFP with it.
It's episode zero. It's fun, shitty episode, but you know, over time, I think it'll have value
as we drop more and more episodes, and it becomes like this. Valuable fuckup,
and I'll tell you guys something. It's a classic. I actually tell you guys something
that Ben told us, because when we were working on the iterations for the the generations
for the PFP collection, he was saying that what people love the most when you talk about rarity.
I mean, these guys do this for a living, right? So collectible NFTs
is rarity doesn't actually come from like one of ones or any of this. It comes from the fuckups,
right? And so a fucked up episode where you get to see like this shitty animation. I mean,
there's so much stuff that's worth so much money and it's ass in the real world, and I like ass. So,
yeah, yeah. Get you, get you a Charo Unchained episode zero. It's filthy, but amazing.
Link in my bio. You can watch it. Just follow. Yeah, go support the man.
I'm gonna follow Charo because he's not going anywhere. Do we got any winners?
I think the winners won. For who? The soundboard's not working. I don't know what's going on.
Wi-Fi's fucked up. But hopefully we can play some music, do some nice little outro stuff.
So I think we can collect handles and comments for white lists, and then what we'll do is
because our Billy normally takes care of sending out you know the giveaways.
So we will hand select people that engaged with our space, and you never know what you're gonna get.
You you don't. We got a couple giveaways, and give us at least 24, 48 hours to get back with you.
We will make a pick and a selection, and multiple people will be blessed with something
from this chain. So yeah. Co-hosts, speakers, anybody got any final words before we wrap up
this week's Clays After Dark? Yeah, Cheryl has had their hand up, so I think
they want to say something. Yeah, I know we're wrapping it up, but you know we're super music-based,
and maybe I can share something that we haven't put. But I don't know how it works.
I just send it to you. One hundred percent. I just send it to you directly. Yeah. Okay,
I'll send it through Discord then. Let's see. Boom. This has not been released yet.
And I'm sure intern will kill me because it's not final and we're just fucking around.
But here's kind of some stuff that we have worked on. I don't know if you can play it directly
from there. Let me know. To be one, I hope that I inspire hope for you to go get what
you desire most. Spit fire, bitch! I was just flying coke. I thought you were sick,
you were misdiagnosed. I'm dope and you never had this high dose. Now I'm staking the building
and bitch, I done slapped on my floors in the Empire State Building. I got so many stories,
but I hate silence. Ain't filling you. My bad, I had to test some shit out. But yeah,
you can send it. You can send it. It's in Discord. I had to fire. I had to fire our intern.
So I just, yeah, dude. Man, Tobey Maguire got bit by a spider, but hold,
got bit by a goat. I lost. Do you hear him? Hold, it's in Discord.
Doing a fade, you fall over, 'cause I'm giving money away. Follow the tweet and back three friends.
It's for free, so that's okay. Sending money back to me, posting proof from another account.
Repeated, will I ever be found? A non-anonymous, it's an unembryonic dream. I can be whoever I want
and build a huge following. Post fake profits again and again. I'm a doer not doer, Lambo and then.
Best to hunker on the passenger seat. Pulling for an effort with no bugs, no friends, no money.
But I always stay anonymous in the fed poetry. All of an American dream. All the nouns, the nouns,
mind the big things. I will drop a ticker soon. This is where the money is.
The exit liquidity is you. I delete my posts in the aftermath, then selling my account.
Rings repeat. I will never be found. Anonymous, it's an unbreakable dream. I can be whoever I want
and build a huge ball of beam. Postpaid profits again and again. I am a toy on a dual lambo
and then. Best not curl on the passenger seat. While I'm pointy foot with no bags, no friends,
no money. But I always stay anonymous in the pet boy jeans. I'm loving on a brick
and dream. But life is sort of ticklishly cheap. Rings repeat their jenny bells.
Yo, that's Charles. My man's got. My man's got. A non-American dream. Yeah, a non-American dream.
That's hilarious.
I love that. You sent me the lyrics too. That's amazing. Rinse, repeat till Jenny Wolf.
I like it. So this is this is non-released. So what is this gonna be part of a skit?
Is this will be like animated? To be honest, we just have a channel and our team Discord was like
a bunch of music we we've done I've done and this was just like I don't know.
It was just a time where we just we just talked a lot of the you know everyone was talking about
Moroccans and we were like hmm it'd be funny if we did like a call center type thing
and you know Indians maybe scamming and shit and so I got a call one day from an Indian guy
and I was like hmm this would be a great song. Yeah, that's a great. That's a good idea.
We we have a lot of music and ideas and just stuff floating around. We just haven't gotten to it
because it's not the right time. One mixtape. Exclusively on stuff. We'll see. We'll see. I like it.
I like it. Well, shit, we got the alpha. We got some new music. We got some seed phrase alpha.
We got giveaways going out. We got angel tokens in the wallet. I know there's angels in there.
Triple fucking glaze, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. Anything else up your sleeve, Charles?
You're crazy. I like. I'm trying to think. I mean, we we have stuff coming out, you know,
like definitely be doing YouTube. That's gonna be fun because, man, it's crazy,
but like YouTube is such a like second largest search engine in the world.
There's so many fucking things, videos, like. I really hope we. I think we can blow up on YouTube
because like people are really just on there doing the most random, funny shit. And I came,
you know, I was in the era of like early day YouTubers and from Tennessee to our ghetto
and all these guys. So it's kind of cool. I've always wanted to get on YouTube,
and it's like the time has come. I went from watching YouTube from like when it came out, 2010,
and seeing it blow up. I mean, back then a million, you know, virality was like a million views.
You know, that's like today's inflation of like 100, 200 million. So maybe we can get one
of these music videos, and yeah, we more music videos. That's something we want to do. Music,
you know, I mean, hold. You know, the music video game is just music is one thing.
That's a whole different production. But then doing actual music videos is so different.
It it does make easier when it comes. It is easier in terms of like scripting out
because you don't have to worry about dialogue. But at the same time, like doing a full song video
on it. Not. I mean, we're thinking about how do we even make this? You know, put Indian,
want to Shah Rukh Jit? You know, put Shah Rukh Jit on there. Have him at a call center. Yeah,
that's fucking hilarious. But yeah, there's definitely the process is not easy. Like, just create,
just getting to the mindset to create timeless energy, and then visuals. Oof, you know,
that's like that's like you can have a good idea for a clothing brand,
but if you're not doing the research on the actual cloth that you're developing and shipping out,
your clothing brand can be fucking shit. Like, you can have the sickest designs,
but if your shit's shrinking and you got that fucking material, like you know, it is what it is.
But yeah, there's levels to it, and I know how serious you guys take the music and the animation.
So keep all that energy up, dude. I like the skits. I like the Dave Chappelle vibes because you know
anyone can just pop into any episode and try to take something and relate and extract some laughs.
So I think that's what we're doing here, and I'm I'm I'm eye to eye with that.
So continue to have fun and. Pump my fucking bags. Yeah, man. For sure, we gotta,
we definitely gotta get a sketch in with the quays. There they are. They're, they're, uh, they're up
and going. So we have co-hosts here, huh? Make me co-hosts. Make me co-hosts. I felt like Rock left,
Billy left. Where the fuck is Daddy? You know, like it's just me. I know you're here now.
I do slide. Uh huh. That's okay. Luckily, you know we have. Yeah, of course.
Like I've had questions on my mind, but I just didn't feel like the flow was the right for some
of these questions. But I'm just thinking, you know, we're about to we're in the like bull run,
or whatever they say right now. Supposed to be like six months long based on historical trends.
Who knows what the next after this bull run looks like? You know, I mean,
what are you guys gonna do when you get your first milli from hit your first, or let's say second,
third? Because you guys clayed after dark. I mean, you guys have got all the clays, um,
clays on clays on clays, right? What what with the fortune you guys are making, this bull run when
Clay's After Dark really blows up. I got you. Let me answer that first. All right.
So first we're getting a first we're getting a massive sub zero freezer so I can go buy fucking
the wagyu out the ass. Throw that fucking wag right in the fucking shit. You heard? Okay.
Then I'm going to the dispo. All right. Then I'm going straight to the dispo.
I'm fucking spitting in the manager's face. I'm telling him give me all. All fucking Jeters
and all the fucking Amnesia's and all the bubble hash. Give me all that shit
and take it back to the crib. Oh, then I'ma get a bunch of tequila, throw it in the sub-zero freezer
for like an hour. Get all the homies over. Probably get like two, three. I probably, you know,
I don't know, dude. Probably go just eat some good food. Honestly, bro,
if we ever touch money out of some crazy shit, Hold's dream is uh is land. That's it.
I don't need no designer shit or nothing. You know, give me like 50 acres where I can get
some chickens and chill and go out butt-ass naked and smoke a joint. Like I'm good with that.
You know, I can get some land. In the middle of the field. In the middle of the acre. Yeah, yeah,
in the middle of the country, bro. Put me in the middle of the country and some land,
and I'll be good. I don't need nothing. My eggs, my my hens will give me eggs every day,
and I'll get that wagyu shipped in from who knows where, and I'll be kicking it.
I'll be smoking nothing, but I mean I'm already smoking nothing but the finest. But you know,
it would just be you know. Well, you're already smoking nothing but finest,
and I live basically in the country in Tennessee, so I mean we're halfway there. Hold.
I'm gonna get some more Bud Light and guns. Yeah. You can bring your guns, Rocky.
You can bring your guns. That's fine here. Dude, I know exactly what Rocky's doing.
Rocky gets some fortune. He's like, you know that whole section behind Tigers, behind home plate.
You know, all these like thirty seats. I bought them all. Hell yeah, brother. That's great.
That's great. Maybe, you know, maybe we can put some little bat signs on there. Every time
he shoots, like, hehoo, hehoo. Makes it more fun. Yeah, man. But I think we're pretty simple here.
We're pretty simple. Nothing crazy. No Lambos. You know. There goes Roni.
I think the space is a little buggy today. Oh, it's buggy. Even you been clipping out here
and there. Yeah. So apologies if the music's not coming in right or you know anything like that.
But trying to make it work and keep the ball rolling. What else you got for us, Charles?
I'm just excited, man. We're spending it on Wagyu and Bud Light and ammo. Yeah, I love it.
What about you? To be honest, I'm just gonna put into making more content. I think.
If we get to a point where we have like a team to handle this show, you know, me
and interns are gonna keep writing for this show. But we can do another show
or find a team that can create another show. A spin, like not spin off,
but I really like you know a lot of people love Moon Boy, a lot of people love Mr. Moto,
so maybe there's something there. Taking a different approach, keep this animation style same,
you know. Um, doing more, more TV shows, more songs, more content, like. I mean, we're the same,
man. I'm a billionaire, but you know, I'm gonna have my lunch with bison and Colorado. Yeah,
one Charle podcast. We've thought about this actually. We we have thought about this.
This is what's crazy. We want to do a podcast with our characters, and the idea is,
it's a lot easier for us to do voice. I mean, it's still hard as fuck. You know,
we don't we're not voice actors, but like AI can help with the voice itself. But like expression
and like being dynamic, that's still something that requires a lot of effort.
So we we definitely want to do one actually. Like I think having one with Moon Boy would be
really great because he'll just ask such degen questions, and then bringing on different. Yeah,
just I can already see this, and I'm thinking about it as if like, you know,
you guys have the set pre-made and animated, and then it's it's more. I think it's an easier.
It could be an easier animation like process because like hey you have like you know the same set
but now you just have conversation so it could be more of like and it doesn't have to be like
a full podcast like a five hour podcast it can just be like a question
but it's in that in your guys's charles studio so like whenever you have a skit or something
or whenever there's like something that needs to be talked about or like charles interviews
somebody like bro what if like charles interviewed uh. O' Rogan or whatever the knockoff name was,
you know what I'm saying? Like it was the like the reverse of that,
and it was like you know type shit, something short and quick. But I feel like it could be
those could hit too, because like you know that character and different, um,
like different backgrounds and different areas can attract different people. I mean,
I can tell you more about the animation process because like the thing is we we learned it
from scratch, right? And I mean, there's no point in trying to gatekeep.
We want more better content, right? And like the extent to our AI use is formatting
and then creating LLM models. With voices, so we can create like more characters
because voice acting is tough, you know. I mean, the ultimate goal is if we have enough capital,
this bull run, we're just gonna hire. Bro, you guys can hire me. I got seventeen people living rent
free in my mind. Say less, bro. Say less. You know what I mean? Like who you got? You want AI?
You want bags? You want Joker? You want Brain? Like I got all the Cardenias.
Like you guys don't even gotta do AI. Just hire whole. Say less, bro. I mean, I mean,
we talked about wanting to bring you on to do some stuff. Anyway, I mean,
we we gotta get that conversation going again for sure. But I mean, let's talk about
the animation process because I think this is pretty interesting. We spent. Six months on YouTube
and TikTok, cause like, but like from the time last year when it launched March to the token itself,
we figured out within like a few weeks. You know, someone suggested actually it was the first
in our ideas channel. It was the first suggestion I think that we got,
which was like making a Adult Swim cartoon or something. And then boom,
like from there we just started working. And the thing is, we had to learn everything
from first principles. You know, we had to Elon Musk this shit with the rocket ship and.
The first thing we did was like, okay, what's the best type of animation? Because you know,
there's hand-drawn animation, which is like there's a lot of anime was like that originally,
a lot of cartoons originally. But then there's also rigging, and a lot of anime and cartoons now,
'cause it costs less, is like rigging. I mean, it's very advanced now,
like to the point where you know a cheek, you know, each eye has like 50 different movements
you can make with it. But like we use South Park as a really good model, and we're like, all right,
let's learn this process, and like we spent a lot of research on YouTube, TikTok.
And then we went in and we're like, all right, we're gonna do rigging. Then we were like, all right,
we need to find animators. So actually, what's crazy? We found our animators
for the first music video on Fiverr, and I was just bold as fuck and was like, hey guys,
we really fuck with you. You got this. This is like the best thing they ever worked on
because they did kids animations on Fiverr. But before then, they did like a kid TV show.
That was like one of the biggest TV shows in that country, and so we were like, "Hey guys,
I'm about to ask you something crazy. I want you to say 'fuck fiber' and join us full time.
" I didn't know how to pay them at all, but we talked to them, and you know,
the first couple first couple videos we had were intentionally a little shitty
because we're still figuring out the style. But then we were like, oh, we talked to the animators,
which are the best resource. We're like, all right, what takes the longest time, right?
So the mouth movements, the hand movements, those are like movements, right?
Like physical movements takes a lot. But like if they're standing in one place and talking,
that doesn't take as long because you have like eight mouths, six mouths, you know.
At first we had like four mouths, and then we upgraded more and more. And at some point we're
we're gonna try and have like thirty mouths, twenty mouths for each character. But hey yo,
yeah yeah. So with with that mouth tool, bro, it it does thirty different things. So We we like.
Don't clip that, Stevie. God damn it! I fucking forgot Stevie's in here. Shout out Stevie, man.
Shout out Stevie. From Boston. Do not, do not, and you know what? Like as soon as I said,
like G U N, like Elon did not like that, and I was kicked out. Like legit, they were just like, Nah,
you're out of here. So now I know why Charles draws that line. You know, like, Hey,
we're not gonna do any of that because you get fucking kicked out. So I'm back
and I'm glad I'm listening to you know like everything else that
that you guys are are looking to do. Papa is watching. Yeah. So yeah, that's that's
like the animation. It's like 12 steps, and we're like, Fuck it. How do we simplify it? We said,
All right, let's take out half these steps. And then we were like, all right,
let's take out two more steps. And so essentially, like you know, the big part of animation is
you have to have a storyboard, right? We threw that out because that would cost
and take too much time for us. Another part was like animatics, right,
where you have this part where you have like the animation that's super robotic, just
so you get enough. To understand, and we're like, nah, fuck that. So we threw out a lot of stuff
in the process. And then the crazy thing is, you have to think we're coordinating between
the script, the animators. Like, this is what's the crazy part. Our animators are so goated.
We just give them the script, and then we just in detail describe the script,
give them the settings, and they just do that shit. And then like, I mean, it takes some edits,
but like, we're at a point where, like, for episode zero, we went through like, or episode one,
we went through like 20 revisions. But before then, we do like three, two, three revisions,
and be like, all right, it's done. And it'd be like the revisions take, like,
each revision will take like half a day. So within like a week, we could have a five-minute sketch
out. But with episode one, we were like, oh, we need like this one little thing is like here's
fifty revisions, and then it's like, all right, the next time around, oh, we found these issues.
And it's kind of like you know, you listen to music and you listen to your song, it's like, oh,
I could turn up the tempo here, or add a you know something here. You know, I feel like a melody
or ad lib could go here, whatever. A different melody, switch up the flow, whatever.
And so it's just like these things come up as you watch it. And so we actually send them
without any visual context. That's how good they fucking are, and they just make that shit happen.
We just describe to the best of our ability, and then over time it comes into something.
So we skip so many steps. Even for this, like for this episode, we still skipped a lot of steps.
You know, the revisions was what took the longest. So we spent six months learning this,
and then now we work with the animators for over a year. So we're like, like. It's just funny, man.
Like we, our group chat is probably one of the funniest group chats I've been in.
We're always saying gay shit, no homophobia intended. We're also saying a lot of things that are
just wild, and it feeds into what we write. Guy do slack, Brony doesn't fuck around. You know,
that's the real deal. Definitely gonna clip this. No homo. I'll answer the question.
It's about the vibes, bro. It's about the vibes. We're gonna we're gonna trade the vibes.
This hole has really good bones. Yeah. So that's that's it. And the goal is we just want to get to
Stout Park level of doing the episode every week at some point. I mean, it's gonna take us a while.
We need to grow our team massive, but one day. I believe in you, Charles,
and the whole squad here does too. Even though they're all sleeping, but it's okay. You know what,
yo guys, I'm losing my mind over here. I'm I'm short three words. How many did you get?
How far did you get? I'm remaining three. I can't find the first, the eighth, the tenth,
and the eleventh word, guys. What's happening? You gotta look in, bro. Where did you hide them?
I can't find the first word. It's not in the first scene. Where the fuck is it?
I can't find the first one. I can't find the first one. I'm just seeing the second one.
I'll tell you between the seconds of zero zero zero and seventeen fifty one. Oh no, bro!
Fucking asshole! I am what I eat. Whoa, wait, whoa, what is going on? Bro, bro, come on, bro.
That's gonna go a long way from. Do you know what $800 is to me in Nigeria?
I'm in the fucking trenches here, man. I'm not gonna sleep this night.
I'm definitely not gonna sleep this night till I find. I'm watching it the second time. Laterally,
though, I have to find those words. Well, Jason, if you drop the comma, if you drop the comma
and a handle down in the chat, you probably lock yourself in on a whitelist
and potentially some some assets. So you know, there's a light at the end of the tunnel.
And you found a lot of the words, so keep keep keep getting it, bro. Keep getting. Bony,
you didn't get to answer the question, man. You didn't, lady. I asked,
what are you gonna do with your millions after Clays after Dark really goes crazy
when we onboard everybody from Cardamantis Cardano? I told you already. She can speak for herself,
man. What you mean? Hold just wants some damn land. No, I'm talking about Bony specifically. Oh.
My gold was answering for us. I told him I have the land, and we can get the chickens. And you know,
if we actually Ronny, it's not about my dreams anymore. They're talking about what you want to do.
But I would welcome you. I would welcome you, and then we. That's a side note. Yeah,
we would make all all of this possible. We would get the cows, you know, slap it on the ass,
and then now it's here, however you want it. Where is that clip, bro? You're right.
That's such a great one. There is one. And the I already get fresh eggs. You know,
I I already have the fresh eggs, and those are great. So that's good. I don't have to buy
the grocery. Rony, you're still not answering the question. Rony, you're still not answering
the question. I think I'm with you though. Like, there's not much that I want. Oh,
you would want the same type of thing. Yeah, you're you're saying you would. Yeah,
it's just like unlimited. Yeah, um, yeah, more more land, more you know, sparkling water,
more tequila, and then I'm happy. That's it. That's all we need. Cold as fuck too. I mean,
I have ice. Who the fuck is drinking warm tequila? No, no, no! You nasty motherfuckers!
You like that shit? The bottle leaves handprints on it when you touch it because. Yeah, hold. Yeah,
bro. What kind of tequila are you drinking? Don't say Casamigos. Don't say Casamigos, please. Bro,
whatever we. If you were to drink it, what do you? Whatever we. That is not an acceptable.
We listen. It just isn't. Oh no! We fucking judge. Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen.
Ask me about flour. I got you. Ask me about wine and liquor. It better be some good. All right.
What kind of wine? What kind of wine are we drinking? I don't know. It better be some good.
You just said ask me about some wine. No, no. I said ask me about some flour that we can run it up.
But if you ask me about some wine and liquor, it's not gonna happen. Oh my god.
You're even crazier than I thought you were. Listen. Top shelf. Give me top.
Tell the bartender give me top shelf. I don't want that. I know. What are you talking about?
There's some bottles of wine that are fourteen ninety nine that hit. But you know what?
There's some bottle wines in Europe that are like two euro, three euro, and they're not bad. I mean,
to be honest, those those Cali grapes, bro. I think they're genetically modifying them to make
them sweeter. So then, Cali wines just end up being good. Yeah, don't give me any sweet shit. Yeah,
don't give me any anything sweet. Like fucking, stray away from that. Yeah, I like that dry shit.
I'm good. Yeah, don't give me any sweet stuff. You're talking about Lambrusco.
Lambrosco sweet as fuck, bro. Come on, boy. Yeah, that's one of the. You're like talking about
some Moscato. Like, what are you talking about? I just know that's the only one that I know
because it used to be a joke between me and my friends. Bro, my friend one time brought a
because I know nothing about liquor, right? My my buddy brought over like a wine, a bottle of wine,
but this thing was a gallon. It was literally a gallon of Lambrosco, and he came in the door
and he's like Lambrosco. Or shit like that, right? And he, the marker, there was a, there was a,
there was a price marker on it, and it was like sixteen dollars. And the dude like added a zero,
and I had no idea. And I really thought that the man brought like a hundred sixty dollar
bottle of wine to my house. So I'm like fucking taking Snapchats. I'm like sending it to people,
like you know and shit. And homie starts dying laughing, and he's like, bro,
I like wrote a zero on there and stuff. Like this bot, this whole gallon was like sixteen dollars.
So I know one, I know one type of wine, and I would probably would never drink because it was
straight sugar, and it's called Lambrusco. Well, that's like when people post their plotters
and they add a couple of DOs. That's fucking hilarious. Yeah, cause he pulled up and he's like,
Yeah, I got you a housewarming gift, bro. And I'm like, This guy knows I don't drink. Oh, bro,
this is great. He's like, Yeah, man, look at the price tag. I'm like, Holy shit! I was like,
You didn't have to bring me. No, this is too much. I gotta open this for a. He's like, Open it up,
we'll crack it open now. The guy gifted me. I'm like, Yeah, I might as well open it.
You know what I mean? The dudes were drinking a sixteen bottle dollar wine.
I'm fucking drinking it like I'm thinking I'm drinking gold and shit. It was so funny.
You gotta get some classy asoo. Oh, the screw cap shitter gave me a hint. Was it a screw cap?
Was it a screw cap? Was it Rockies? Rockies. He heard alcohol, and the man woke up. He said alcohol.
He's like, Nah. I'm here. What's up? I'm surprised Gold Rush didn't pull up. Rocky drinks whiskey.
He's like a whiskey bourbon type of guy. Aside from the beer. Dude, dude, Rockies,
give me a twelve pack of Bud Light, and leave me alone. Or Miller Lite, or what is it?
Michelob Ultra. Michelob Ultra. I love Michelob Ultra. It tastes like pee pee.
That's what he's drinking. Nicole Ochoa is like the best tequila out there. That's it.
I couldn't even get Rocky to take a shot of tequila. Did you take a shot of tequila? Hell no!
I never drink liquor. Never. Well, Rock, that's because you're probably like you know on
in your younger years you were drinking like Jose Cuervo or like something disgusting.
So you relate your last experience to the worst experience you had, and it was that shitty ass,
nasty ass tequila. So it's not the same. There's different levels. Honestly, if you just want to
either sip or mix, I I can't do blanco. I just cannot. Like that's just I I won't do it.
But if you do like a reposado, if you do an aniero of Don Julio, yeah, like either of those,
perfectly fine. Don Julio reposado, Don Julio aniero. What brand of Don Julio? Don Julio. Don Julio.
Yes, Don Julio. I got me a bottle of Don Julio, but I'm saving it for a good night. Every night,
it's a good night, my friend. Oh, you gotta get a bottle of Casa Azul just for the bell on top
of it. That's the blue and white bottle. Yeah, you gotta hit it every time. Yeah. Man,
y'all just so damn bougie. It's okay though. It's not. Man, y'all are gonna get crypto rich
and spend it all on fine wine and bougie ass tequila and shit. Y'all are crazy.
What's wrong with that? What, like, like in the summer, it's so refreshing with some sparkling water
and some lime. It's low cal. It's just tequila, sparkling water, and lime, and that's it. Listen,
you know, I can't relate with the alcoholics on this chain. It's totally fine.
You guys want to drink, and you you want to mix and drink and mix the drink and get the drink mixed
and and stumble down the stairs and you're unable to drive home. I can't do all that shit. I'm home.
I got a camera on me. I got a soundboard on me. I got too much weed on me to be drinking.
Motherfucker, go rob me for the Zaza I got in my pocket. I can't. I can't be caught slipping. Oh,
you'll never catch me. The best, the best work is drunk work. Drunk work. That's how Gold Rush's
boss feels every time Gold Rush pulls up to work. Mhm. We have our best employee here, Gold Rush.
What happened to Levy? Wasn't Levy or DeFi, DeFi was up here? DeFi. I just want to say,
that's your sponsor, right? Like this man, the intern will not shut up about Levy. So shout out,
shout out. You want to glaze Levy? You're more than welcome to glaze Levy.
We have no problem with that. Shout out, shout out Levy. Yeah, shout out DeFi Mofo.
Shout out Commander and the whole squad. Yeah, bro. How many angels are in this in this wallet?
This hidden wallet. I mean, to be fair, though. It's tomorrow. You know,
I've been dragging the space on because I'm trying to hit midnight. So then you have no more excuse.
So I can tell you, fucking dump all the alpha. So then when we do the time stamps,
there can be like a six hour frame where there's nothing, and then it's like intro, Charle,
and then six hours of Rocky and Vroni not talking, and then twelve o one, Charle drops alpha.
There'll be a tequila in there. Tequila talk. Tequila talk. I like that. Guys, go use Webi.
Effortless lending, instant liquidity. Maximize your capital. So, are we talking like one angel,
ten angels, fifty, a hundred? Well, we actually put we actually put all of Levy profits in there.
So, yeah, that's that's crazy. That's crazy. That's a lot. Yeah, Levy has it all.
It's somewhere between one angel and one billion angels. Okay, nice. Well, I'm glad that uh,
I'm glad that. You're getting along with our sponsors because that means the world to us. Yeah, man.
I was, I was all through. Charles, do you have a whitelist for fucking handle? I don't. You don't.
Oh well. We're gonna get you a whitelist for handle. Hola. Sorry to interrupt. Um,
the wallet has been found. No way. No, it's been found. Whoa. Who found it? I did. Congrats, bro.
Did you? I watched. I watched that video about six times. So while I was here pumping your bags, you
how much? Okay, how much angels in there? Tell me that. I have no, I have no clue. I just,
I wasn't focusing on that. Well, that's the only thing you should be fucking focusing on.
Go into that damn wallet, put an ADA handle in there, and tell me how much angel tokens in there.
Because every fifteenth of every damn month, you're gonna get paid out in ADA. Oh man,
give me a second. No way, Fuse got it. Yo, what a congratulations, congratulations. Yo,
I don't believe it until I see it. Dump the chart. Dump dump the Charles chart so I can buy
and and that'll prove. Three Charles, eleven thousand Snack, ten thousand Chad, fifty mil walk,
and one bill Charles. Wow, you're a billionaire. Wait, how much Angel? Is that Angel?
If I'm not mistaken, eight point twenty five. Sick. Sick. Do we have to confirm with Charles? Like,
is this correct? Is the authenticity? That happened on Clay's After Dark. There you go, man. Yo,
yeah. My money. You see how we do it, Char? We come up in here and we we came here,
took your pockets, my homies. I was DMing Fuse. I was like, "Here, put it back on the
on the eighty-five inch and bring the homies over." Yo, Fuse, congrats, bro. That's lit.
That's litty lit. Thank you. You know that? You know the GIF, the congratulations GIF
with the little kid and he's pissed off. So happy. Yeah, yeah. I'm happy for you. Yeah,
that one right there. So Fuse is giving away a billion. Charles, retweet and follow Fuse.
I'm just kidding. Wait, hold on. So if you find the wallet, you win the wallet. It's a seed phrase,
Roni. So, so it's yours. Well, they put the words in and then they import it. I get it.
I just want confirmation. Why? What the fuck am I speaking right now? I should have been doing that
instead. Yeah, yeah, me too. My time would have better been used then instead of talking about
what tequila you should buy that you're not gonna fucking buy anyway. I was just trying to burn up
some time so we could figure. Wait, so this is what I don't get. Tomorrow you were supposed to drop
the alpha, and tonight they already found the fucking seed phrase. This is crazy. Dejins. Yo,
the yo, bro. I love it. I love it. So what's next? Now that we can't drop no alpha, talk to me,
Charles. We got seven minutes till midnight, baby,
and then that's when AI comes on, and we got to get naked.
Oh shit, we got to go to sleep. Rocky's dreaming. Whoa, whoa, oh my shit! I was on mute. Well,
I just kept saying congrats like fifty times to you. Yeah, it's meant to be found. So regardless of
whether we announce it or not, we figured somebody would see and go through. I'm down.
I'm down to words, guys. If anyone knows eight and eleven, Jason's about to have
a fucking horrible night. Jason came up and goes, needed two more words. Fuse popped in and said,
"Red." Shit. All right, guys. Well, that seems like a great finale to the show. Oh man! Well,
do we have any final words, or questions, or concerns? Fuse, congrats, everybody who participated.
Jason, we're gonna give you a whitelist to handles new mint, potentially some other goodies. Charle,
we want to gift you the same thing. If you don't have a whitelist, we would love to give you one.
And yeah. Appreciate everybody who pulled up. I see Apollo down there. Go get your sub handles.
You know you got you know sub handle. You know GM. You know you can get a sub handle GM.
You know that. You know you can be all cool and like you know like oh dude, how do I make
cool tweets? Well, what you do is you go to handle.me and you go to search GM
and then it's like oh now I can get a sub handle. Then you go put your name in there.
You put Charo at GM. So now when you wake up, you're like yo GM to the community, you know,
and now you're rocking a GM sub handle. So shout out to Apollo. You know you see the backgrounds
too, cat heavy. Shout out to the portal. Yo D, I see D down there trying to get into the portal.
We're gonna get you in there too, bro. We get you in there too. Shout out, brother. Love. Yeah,
let's let's get to this outro. I think we had a good night. We covered some good things.
Charles dropped the Alpha. The episode's out. Fuse one. You know, yeah. Rocky, good night. Veroni,
good night. Speakers, good night. Charles, my brother. Appreciate you for being here.
And we will see you on the next one. We will see you guys on the next one. So enjoy the outro. Have
a good weekend. Be safe. Stay hydrated.
Love one another. You know, all that all that good shit. So let's go.
Yo, it's your boy. Hold, hold, hold, hold. Then you're tuned into Clay's After Dark. It's
Clay's After Dark. It's Clay's After Dark. It's Clay's After Dark. It's Clay's After Dark.
Simulation, simulation, simulation, simulation. We're in a fucking simulation, aren't we? Bro, bro,
bro, bro, bro, bro. What are you talking about, man? Is that why Hole keeps buying handles?
Is that why Hole keeps buying handles? Come on. It's your boy Clay Rock. Rock, rock, rock, rock,
rock. Really Clay, stepping in. I'll be here, Zaddy. I honestly feel like I'm the female version
of Zad. Single Glades. The Handle team is getting ready to drop. Hal, please do yourself a favor
and follow their Twitter. Turn post notifications on and hold on tight because something huge is
about to happen. Don't say we didn't warn you. Handle, handle. Go to handle.me
and personalize your handle today. There's an endless amount of looks you can come up with.
Having a plain old handle is like texting an Android phone, isn't it? This will put some life
in your wallet. I have an Android. I have an Android. I have an Android and an iPhone actually,
because I'm I'm sophisticated. Levy has it all. High yields, staking rewards, leveraging,
and the ability to unlock liquidity. For me, it's being in full control of my financial strategy.
It's very important, I tell you. Come on, you know Clay is the way. Come on,
you know Clay is the way. Plays After Dark is sponsored by the one and only Clay Nation.
I'm bullish on Clay's After Dark. I'd personally like to thank @handle Clay Nation and
Levy Finance for sponsoring Clay's After Dark. We couldn't do it without you guys
or this amazing community here on X. I'm the fucking intern. Just let me do my job, please. Heck,
why don't you just come out to the ranch? Heck, why don't you just come out to the portal, members?
Yeah, you see those portal rings down there. Member of the portal chat. Good luck with that.
You couldn't pay me to do that shit. Every few days a new elite member of X gets added. So what?
Alpha gets dropped in there all the time. Or maybe you'll even win something just engaging like
normal. Or if you really get lucky, you'll see Zad whip out his. Good night everyone.
But just those who have a portal PFP. Everyone else can fuck off. The final fucking glazed.
Not sure if our sponsors got glazed enough tonight. Hold run another clip.
The fucking handle marketplace is live. Go to merch. Handle. Me now. Guys,
I got tea time after this. Can we wrap this up? Guys, I got tea time after this.
Can we wrap this up? Guys, I got tea time after this. Can we wrap this up? Guys, guys, guys, guys,
guys. We're dealing with people. We're we're dealing with people that were fucking around
with salami tokens on Telegram. You guys ready to get naked? Yeah, put your clothes back on, Zach.
Put it, put put it, put put put it, put put it, put put put it, put put it.
We are definitely not cooked. The fucking bull is back, baby. It's time for legendary handles.
The guy said he was watching Love Island with his wife. I'm sick of this shit.
I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm sick of this shit. You fucking bronies. McBrony co-host.
We're dealing with people. McBrony co-host. We're dealing with people.
Hell hell hell hell hell hell hell hell hell hell hell hell. I I want to know
where that cocaine comes from. It's like the goddamn Ecuador special. So I am going to land
this plane. Platinum top shelf. Hey, hey, hey, hey! Shut the fuck up! Shut the fuck up!
If you missed, if you didn't know, if you're, if you missed it, if you didn't know,
if you're under a fucking rock, rock, rock, rock, rock. So shout out. Clays after dark.
