Transcript

0:00 three two one all the way from down under how are you brother what's going on good good to see you You moving? Can't say that. know the height but they're up there like a real mountain like rocky mountain like a real mountain and he's pointing the gun at it. to not fucking be out there. I was talking nicer it'd like grab you drag you down you'd drown anyway you know and then it would do what it wants

3:09 You know, when you see them hold down a salmon and they take big bites out of it, but it obviously grabbed the calf and it was eating this calf while it was still alive, like a beef cow calf. ended up hunting yes i did yeah and like mountain lions usually kill their prey but obviously grab while it was in the river and the thing was moaning and screaming it couldn't go anywhere

4:47 And then they just left it and they walked off, you know, and it wasn't that they were walking away from their kill. Wow. Yeah. They look at you in a way like almost like they think that that's the reason why the myth of the werewolf exists. You get this hard scrabble life out there chasing much larger animals than you, I was howling. distance they walked across a nice lake and other than that i never really seen them but i guarantee

7:14 You'd hear them do – it sounds like a bark. Like, yeah. to camp because it was getting dark but i would have loved to have kept following and seeing if think while it's snowy out, they probably figured, look, we'll come back to this. Yeah. and you realize that it doesn't care about 4g or cities or cars i'mG, I'm on LTE, bro. When you're out there in the woods

10:26 I'm just filming it in the normal camera mode and then uploading it. arnhem land like nothing at all yeah what about satellite you can't upload data really well from And somehow or another extends your cell phone range. remember exactly the mechanism behind it that'd I don't know. Yeah, SpaceX. phone i was like holy shit i can save some time now like that was a massive breakthrough for

13:35 something by sending it to them like say if he has a tour coming up like hey you know i'm going with and stuff like that which is good yeah but you know there's always like there's 10% fuckwits get along like that's never gonna fucking happen is it and it's never happened. But I feel like it's getting worse. Really? Yeah, because There's no repercussions for calling someone a fucking cunt on Instagram.

15:46 Imagine when you were in school and say you don't get along with someone and it was done. And people don't, it's also so new. It might not have been 56K. wait to tell these people about how i got online last night and i was uh downloading all these And now we're here and I'm like, if I've got 3G, 4 bars, It doesn't disturb me that, you know, it's bad for you or anything like that.

18:27 Yeah, yeah, there's a bunch of them. Tesla suit. to new heights. Yeah, they're going to have Your girl's going to have a haptic feedback suit on and one of them artificial machine guns. What? I was looking around. Oh, do I really want to try? Bam. And you get exhausted because you're moving around. squeaking around on the floor. It really takes the edge off things. it has it it really takes the edge

21:38 you're shifting the gears and you mean feels like you're like indiscernible from feeling like you're Yeah. and they'll work out hard for 45 minutes, an hour at a gym, Yeah. So they're already doing It is disturbing. is that not just like see it, that's just one step. fuck you you know that's one of my my point was kind of on stage is that like one of the reasons

23:56 to like you more. That way it's more likely. And in that virtual reality, they're going to look like Ryan Reynolds anyway. which is like 700 images stacked together out at Joshua Tree. of that's air traffic wow that's such an amazing image man it wasn't until the camera stopped early hours of the star I think Joshua Tree is closed down right now because of the,

26:35 Really? And then over like the last week, people were actually going in and like chopping Wow. in the city because you know i spent the last five six days here in la you know and the bad But slightly Let's take a guess. That's two per month. That's cool. I don't know. It's tough to figure that out Fucking rains every day Yeah. You're in like you're a test tube baby or something. Yeah, yeah, where you're from, yeah.

30:37 So especially like, because everything I do is like wilderness and out. that much water i'm like fuck i've got aids for sure this is fucked so a whole gollop went in my all over them. Well, we were there the other day. It is, but let me tell you something. When you go to Florida, again, you got to go to Disney World. They have this Avatar ride. You put these goggles on and you climb on this thing that looks like a motorcycle and it straps you in place.

33:32 Well at the end of the day It's fun. Like that will be fun for the rest of your life. Always. Exactly. and we were up there for – we were supposed to be up there, I think, It rained all day, every day. No. It's okay. So you know the misery, and then so you know the little things just traveling around in like a winnebogo trailer and we get back to the trailer and you get to flick

36:56 I actually miss it. do a year when i'm out in the actual wilderness, like when we're in the mountains of Utah elk hunting, and you start knowing the wilderness and the real world, you know. Fuck that up. You see that fire like, ah. through the night camels yeah yeah but we sat there at camp i just had the my my truck my ute Oh, yeah. But most of it enters in dust form because it breaks up. Oh, my God.

40:10 it lasts for 25 minutes, half an hour in the camera, but it comes so close to it. of millions of years it doesn't seem it doesn't register to us because we're only around for 100 Yeah. was like 10 000 years ago there was like a big bang like like a big media hit hit the earth yeah Well, Randall Carlson, the guy that I talked about earlier, he is a proponent of this theory that this is what ended the Ice Age.

42:53 podcast that i've did with them are just mind-blowing but in terms of like the evidence and they've got all these signs up in Wyoming that are really interesting, comprehend that there was that much ice over here because there's none now yeah you know but it's been that long you know and that's yeah it's mind-boggling to think of well they they find

44:36 Shit. Yeah, because it's like a fully intact or close to intact T-Rex. The Meg? The Meg, yeah. Oh, Jesus's a stupid movie The Meg I watched it the other day and then I think I found what you found. Are we sending shit back out into space? Not just that. He goes, there's nothing you could do. People have a real distorted idea of the technological capabilities in terms of like,

47:33 To somehow or another give it a bump, send it into Mars or something. unless you're out there with no light pollution. I was like, wow, so pretty. because you can see so much of it. someone else's photos, oh look at that one from bc go down one strip, that one there. That's with the northern lights in it. I've seen them – when I was in Northwest Territories,

49:30 Yeah. I don't know. It's got to be a crazy thing to see though, huh? God, that's amazing. Yeah. Yeah. Look at that. Yeah, you got like the Coma. Yeah. And you can just fit a lot more on it. because there's such a market for it in australia there's a bunch of them that you buy ready that What is that, Jamie? That's too far far but what would it take us to get that's like colorado um i've driven across i've driven from ohio to here twice and it took

53:50 of Australia right on the Sunset Strip You're like tired as shit. And there's just, you know, Grey nomad? Don't say the gray nomads, though. getting a hit it seems like there is quite a bit of hunting in australia though like particularly there is hunting seems to be on the rise yeah it's just not really Yeah, yeah. Exactly, yeah. Speaking of chicken, what's that mountain lion taste like?

56:50 shouldn't have killed it i don't see mountain lions like i see deer i'm fucking no shit because You know, you're not supposed to see them. Might. typically kill a deer every single day yeah you know so it's a lot of fucking deer this the human and make sure it's a male with binoculars yeah yeah or sometimes if they're low enough you can where we were some states aren't like that and counties aren't like that where it can be male

59:46 the perception is that it's not fair but people i mean this is going to be hard for some people But instead of people paying money to do it and getting a tag. And then. And I served the mountain lion first and they were eating the mountain lion and i'm like what do you Yeah. that allows us to study and put hunt and don't go into it, organizations and the department of fish and game it's really interesting stuff and i'm not a blanket

1:03:33 Yeah, like when I hear about limited entry tags Has this happened before? America's dangerous. and it has to be over 50 inches, No. because lanai is stacked it's so out of whack we're fucking spotted little demons that just Do you think it's kind of a weird coincidence that the fastest animal you can hunt is also the most delicious? Maybe because they are delicious, they've You know? Yeah. Like, yeah, it's kind of weird. Yeah, maybe. It's almost like a reward. Maybe because they are delicious.

1:05:42 So they drop, load up their legs, and then jump, you know, but it's actually the drop. That's when you usually miss them. They're gone. No idea I was there and it was a nice wind. That was when I got out of the car, and I saw one 15 minutes into the hunt. or something like that. even right at the moment when you're like i'm gonna shoot it's like you need to wait for something

1:08:04 of the property owners that lives on his property and I cut it up and I actually gave it to him. sheep in the paddock to put strain on the landscape if you especially if you're eating your own why that goes through past hundreds and hundreds of people's hands and breaths and stuff like that. Instead of meat, it's going to be sex. And, you know, this is making animal rights people very excited

1:10:53 because pigs like uh my friend whitney cummings she adopted a pig that where'd she get that pig Oh, they're an intelligent animal. They're devastating to plants and ground nesting birds animals everything they eat everything in front of them lizards and they'll anything that's on the ground that's edible they'll eat it yeah um i wrote an and they'll just stick to meat after that and uh end up catching up with this pig the next morning

1:13:39 and ripped the bow out of my hand. little bits of uh wool and stuff like that he'd just been going around and just picking these And it was the same, it was lambs, hawks and it was like spit to vomit. Oh. You don't say spew and it was like this fucking spew like this and it was the same it was lambs hawks and it was like spit to vomit oh you don't say spew in america yeah you do but i wasn't i thought maybe

1:15:13 So a deer will walk along and it will pick, you know, it will just pick the tops off grass Really? Yeah, in like western New South Wales when times get tough, You'll just hear them just scream and it's the most god awful sound there is they cannibalize they cannibalize yeah i was in uh tahone ranch and Were you hunting them? It really did. That's fucked up

1:17:37 No No. That's real? They apologize for stuffing a kitten in a jar like i'm not extreme where i'm just like hunt everything but i'm sure there's a few people Yeah. thing one of the things they found with mountain lions in california is that almost 50 of their This is the backup account. You follow it though. Yeah. The other account's not up anymore.

1:20:38 I thought it said mental. This is the quick and the dead. Oh, damn. There's a, how dare you? Yeah. you'd want to have limitless time though you know like to actually that's the difference you know They have a pattern and they develop these habits. Yeah, pretty tough. Yeah, I did it that one time with you. I've got no desire to go back Of all moose calves

1:23:59 it yeah and then there's a cinnamon black bear and she's got cubs and she goes so fast up that But they could still do it. You know, and it's just like, because I always say, I always tell people about that one that was sleeping on an elk kill that I had, a grizzly. their feet are so soft in order to sneak up on things i remember the first time i went uh bear

1:25:31 And the one on the top is the black bear, is the cub? in australia the whole season in australia i've seen two snakes one of them not poisonous like a Talk to them. There's so many cameras now. Something like that. Because they're fucking meat eaters, so they'd come in and start eating sheep or whatever. They'd probably just come in and devastate livestock populations and people's pets.

1:28:09 In the first month in America dude I think he was in North Carolina come to america we flew in the idaho and we drove straight down to southern colorado to hunt pronghorn watched it in the headlights go for him twice and uh once we set up camp we went back there He was just jumping, hopping around one leg after another. There was just tarantulas walking over the ground everywhere.

1:30:09 The Cuban solenodon is one of the most curious animals on the planet. A single specimen found that was See if anybody, like, legit has seen one. that thing it's a cool looking animal you know That's where the Tasmanian tiger i believe so how big is that actually they might have been on the mainland and i think that's where Oh, yeah. hunting and stuff like that to to keep your guns it's they keep trying to make it tighter and

1:33:32 you should have a right to have a gun. got a gun hey yeah like everyone i meet's got a gun i've got a gun too yeah because if everyone If you've got a criminal record, you've got a mental illness or something like that, then fuck. Huh. A lot of places, it's like the whole Californian thing, you know. we weren't like fucking shoot 30 000 of them because they shoot them from a helicopter and

1:36:16 Some of these towns live off hunters. truly causing that much damage then yes obviously like fin out the population but why not actually go into the wild don't fence the wild look, that's so far beyond that animal's wild range It's like ideologically the same thing. You know they're in there. Yeah. it's different between hunting and any other way that you get meat because because it is so

1:39:45 that's what it should take too because we're taking an animal's life so it should take that the perfect opportunity popped up and I ended up shooting this bull and then we never had a good The difficulty, oftentimes for a lot of people, You know, like that's just been her life, you know. and i cooked up these lamb cutlets and i served it and she fucking loved it like her and the kids

1:42:16 that and and then cooking it and eating it and she feels a lot more and i'm not trying to put in and she wants everyone to know that you're eating something that she caught yeah yeah yeah it doesn't necessarily even make sense It's got some weight on it. She's like, no. 100%. And he and I went hunting for the first time. but it's a different kind of excitement. It's sustenance.

1:46:03 When I get an elk i i'd couple hours later holy shit i'm like yeah yeah that ain't like any anything else you're gonna it is weird that it's so it's rare now yeah. Yeah. So how rare is it in Australia, like population wise? in that workplace like it doesn't come up no one's they're like oh it's so weird that what you do you it's gonna sound weird um that's better there you go it's clear yeah it's like if you wash your

1:48:57 Yeah, I bow hunt. There's a lot of that too, right? But I'll take this story back up for John. and I never do because that spot could be someone else's paradise here without bringing everything and i was walking around new mexico actually and i was looking at to the wild, you see that, you know, like, fuck, that doesn't belong here. you know. I see it everywhere.

1:52:06 Yeah. And they're in pristine condition. me and my people how we sort of do. That's how we are. Respectful for the land but there's There seems to be a tight hunting community in America as well Yeah, go back to your own fucking trash house, you know. No one's going to notice. poor job of raising people you know they're not paying attention yeah you know it's a they're

1:54:49 Do you want to have like a phone out there? I just felt like cutting it all out, you know, like fucking cutting bills out, Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. they're unhealthy in a sense because they're so I get it. After she's done. but i like being in contact i want to know what's happening with the world i like i like being I don't know because I don't tune into it anymore.

1:58:27 Right? So, pretty much, you're on that island you know Yeah, I think that's the important thing. that what are you supposed to do it's a tech you know it's a very uh it's a hard situation yeah I mean, I always say that about people that are talking about people sneaking over this country. I mean, that's like people in LA saying they don't want anybody moving to LA.

2:00:31 You're an import European settlers like I'm third generation, my grandparents came over here from Europe. or anything like that i've just always looked at the world the world's home well especially because was like that then borders would be easy to cross well that's essentially what america is we've been It would be, you could travel to anywhere where the opportunity was, where you thought

2:02:34 It would be nice if one day the whole world rises up. unique thing in this country and that's why people want little babies in a village crawl around in like three, four inches of dust. It's fucking burnt out and there's just bullet holes sprayed but just so they can feel you know like you've got a good you know you've got a good life you No, it doesn't.

2:05:26 I mean, because it seems like, look. know maybe the matrix would be so beautiful we're like this adam green should be running around with like what's the difference i'll get hyperthermia and die well you have gore-tex but okay yes you You can be fine in the rain now. this every day to go to work oh like traffic some people's lives oh yeah i'm like what the

2:08:04 That's their life. It's beautiful out there. keeping your sanity and they're doing a job to get that goal, Yeah, that too. That was my job from the time I was like 17 till I was 22-ish, somewhere around there. I bought a cargo van just to deliver newspapers in, some shitty cargo van. my ass and kick out i'm like whoa hey i know what to do here i don't panic i don't slam on the

2:10:37 But I didn't have anybody with me while I was doing it. it was only like three hours a day you know i was done by eight and i'd go back to sleep now you got And unfortunately, a part of that would have been changing some of the companies that I'm with. And it's like your situation plus you have the kids with you that's hours out of the day that you just don't have exactly yeah

2:13:14 You should get along. That's Valentine's Day. I make sure that I take plenty of family vacations around hunting trips. like legitimately for a couple months because i don't have enough material because i just did a I don't feel like I'm a fraud. Because you got to make sure Totally. It's like a show show. just to chill for me. sitting on the couch and watching a movie and just chilling it's like you recharge holy shit yeah you

2:16:16 You need breaks. with the kids and just chilled out we're leaving tomorrow heading back to utah salt lake city Some friends are up Utah. because, you know, in that 20 minutes. You're out of your fucking mind if you think I'm coming out of Buffalo land. I've been collecting fucking spiders i've been doing in america i've been collecting There's fucking no one there, dude.

2:18:59 Yeah, it is. been hectic and um i think i've been to idaho like four or five times in this trip like back and Then we went to Southern Colorado. I drove all the way to Kentucky with the kids, Nebraska, dude. How long you guys been here? i'm sure they're pretty good i'm like fuck they're like either locked in a trailer or locked in the ever do that's how i fucking get out there and do it.

2:22:18 Yep. it fun to do like every now and again i like to go to new york city every now and again just go detached from the food that they're eating like they don't feel like an obligation to their food Yeah. Lamb is a baby sheep, you fuck. Yeah. To be a vegan, they need the clear land, you know. So it's like have a look at the cleared land to be a vegan they need

2:24:30 You'd let all the cows loose. i think your perspective is very healthy that it's good to have these extreme animal rights activists Because it's so normal in Australia. Beautiful. Hell yeah. me he's like he's australian it's very normal it's a prison colony but out here it's like you're Like if Jamie walked in here and go, hey, fucker. leave the flag flag is beautiful that motherfucker out there son yeah all right dude we just did
