about that

so it's gonna it's gonna kick that fire back on so you cook dinner out there but you guys want me to wait so you can use the coals no we can give it as yeah oh right no but you wanted to transfer the coals oh yeah we're gonna move that here and then you can cook here wall cook here oh yeah so instead of getting that one alive that's right we'll just do here oh I'm just gonna cook that out there so that we can have like a rope and fire back here too like hanging out around and I'll cook the chili back there nice I like getting two fires going whatever you want to do yeah we're gonna we were just gonna get a coal to get this go on dude yeah where we can get this going without it we found this huge sheet of birch bark so yeah yeah yeah we're all right cool yeah if you want to do the coals transfer for a video or if you're happy to do something else wasn't for video just oh just for kicks I thought we were just gonna abandon that would be a fire out there then yeah okay no this is the idea the way back like I'd like to just get ya a little finer on there and the chili again slow cooking oh yeah looking at it we all have to think about it on yeah [Applause]

I'm a confusion Confucius you haven't been in my way - yeah just playing right up until I'm ready to break my controller before you break the controller this is true it is very I'm not happy with any of it and I don't need to do it I probably want you to pry doesn't want a powder not yours

I love cuckoo blades we both have one huh yep I love it Micah made a good point he's like you know I just can't use him because he's been using this like a saber grime of the micro bevel and it really is like once you get used to something it's hard to hop back and forth things with different blade angles absolutely saber grinds are like like snow plows yeah they just push through the material to the secondary bevel it's almost like a splitting axe well as splitting AK has the extra bevel in front of the cheeks think about it's a saber crank yeah splitting axe it's not my cup of tea I like slicing man I like high-quality slicin and i want a dump truck I want a Ferrari actually don't look for whatever cheap guy but my viewers are like now dude I have no idea same thing you literally just made no sense everything you've done is terrible and I'm gonna say no I'm on subbing you don't like saber grinds some stuff there you go some stuff cool light it up throw that on there yeah really light stuff right here - we got the twigs it's important guys - and girls in my opinion anyways I don't like to talk from what - of a thora Tatum position but I think it's important to have things set up ready to go so right hand first ignition I want to lift this whole thing put it in there yep left hand

special Hawaiian work for water whose cup is this one that's cool oil in there is that it is it does it fit over anything

[Applause]

I'll make another pot everyone's got like the copper half a cup I was looking at those because I have the yeah it does a little wiggle room you feel Mitch sighs yeah I'm throwing how cool is this rig for doing this powdering you know battering up the to be fish but this time is chicken it doesn't matter whatever I think the military military had this in mind when they designed it but it's pretty awesome and she definitely see the distance of the trees

oops get back so most absolutely I'll get you your now contact

right on save the other half I put on my morals and carving knives in that little red pouch carving knives in there put a few blanks alright once that's hot my soul isn't so I get this coffee it probably I think two times a year she sends us sometimes three times a girlfriend I went to Hawaii and stayed at Airbnb like this woman's first time like having someone in her Airbnb it's just like a art studio it's like a little bungalow detached from her house that's on this little volcano like lava rock cropping such a cool spot in the southernmost part of Hawaii and we just like hit it off you know she's super nice we talked to her husband's a pilot so he wasn't at home you know we saw him at the end but she was always that kind of lonely so we always just talked to her and she was like oh yeah we're like you know we want to go to coffee farms like the only commercially grown coffee in the United States isn't Hawaii coffee farms and she's like oh you got to go this coffee farm here at this place and it's like so far past like a thousand farms and we went and it was so good and we're like how can we get this ship they're like oh no this is only only for Islanders like you have to come here to buy it like we won't ship it Wow and we pulled her that like why'd you send us to a place to stuff we can't ships like don't worry I'll send you some and like without even asking she just sends it like once every six months I like the regular but the macadamia nuts cool like actually reminds me of Hawaii you know yeah that's a really good coffee just smooth for it's super strong though it's insane because they like coffee loses its caffeine if you under roast it you don't extract enough caffeine dark roast has left ket less caffeine than medium roast yeah because you can over roast there you can under roast it they only medium roast any of their coffee like they refused to dark roast or light roast anything they don't make anything cap they don't sell that anyone unless you live and go there in the island and buy it there yeah they're just like we don't need you know we don't need more support yeah you know there's so much opponents then commercialized no but why he's dope man it's like it reminds me of like like Central America you know it's just like wild chickens like like whose chickens are these these conflict of arms like no they're just wild like you know like chickens just wild chickens like farm animals everywhere the largest cattle farm in the United States you would think like Texas Minnesota Hawaii hmm that's interesting

Hawaiian cow dude the north side of that Island isn't me it's like oh it's like it's cattle country it looks like Minnesota and you drive along the north coast of the Big Island than Hawaii and like you know you some some places in like Connecticut and even like North Shore Massachusetts like Maine you drive along the coast and there's like cliffs that drop off like 50 P hundred deep there's a 5000 foot drop to the ocean in Hawaii cuz the island that was he'd so high she driving along the coast and you're looking down like you're driving on a suck like a skyscraper so the craziest thing like like in your back in everyone's backyard is like 400 foot waterfall you know there's like the waterfall that they shot de Rasik Park you know that like entrance seen in the original Jurassic Park where they flew in in a helicopter yeah good spot this coffee is so deceiving that's why we liked it like taste cuz my girlfriend on really drinks comes lightning yeah it's macadamia oh yeah but it seems super smooth but the caffeine content
