You did not see her. 52 00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:31.860 Until I hit record, bam. 53 00:02:31.939 --> 00:02:34.719 That was part of life. It just is what it is. 54 00:02:34.719 --> 00:02:37.310 I had three daughters, bro. You know what I mean? Yeah. 55 00:02:37.469 --> 00:02:40.349 No, I got you. I got you. So let's dive 56 00:02:40.430 --> 00:02:44.069 into it, Mike. You know, over the last, I mean, 57 00:02:44.909 --> 00:02:48.770 probably the last four to five years, your career has 58 00:02:49.569 --> 00:02:52.009 taken the high road, if I'm not mistaken. 59 00:02:52.090 --> 00:02:56.610 Yeah. Well, I mean, five years ago, I went viral 60 00:02:56.650 --> 00:02:58.960 and started working YouTube. I got my own pilot playing 61 00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:01.689 a bounty hunter. And I was already doing pretty good. 62 00:03:01.729 --> 00:03:04.469 I'd just gotten back from Armenia in 2019 doing a 63 00:03:04.590 --> 00:03:09.599 TV show called Death Squad. Five mercenaries flying into Armenia 64 00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:14.900 to an offline biological Russian laboratory. We find zombies. It 65 00:03:14.939 --> 00:03:18.139 was a soap opera, but who fucking cares? It was 66 00:03:18.199 --> 00:03:21.240 a zombie. And I got to meet Mike Markoff. I 67 00:03:21.259 --> 00:03:24.280 did eight movies with him after that. But really was 68 00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:27.840 YouTube changed the parameter for me where I started doing 69 00:03:27.900 --> 00:03:31.310 children's content. And it's billions of views, not millions. 70 00:03:32.050 --> 00:03:32.830 Oh, billions. My bad. 71 00:03:32.849 --> 00:03:36.310 It's literally the Stokes twins. Just one of their videos, 72 00:03:36.389 --> 00:03:38.750 we did 240 million views on 30 minutes. 73 00:03:39.659 --> 00:03:40.000 Holy shit. 74 00:03:40.009 --> 00:03:43.219 And that was in a six-month period, literally bigger than 75 00:03:43.240 --> 00:03:46.300 the Super Bowl. Super Bowl gets 120 million. 76 00:03:46.819 --> 00:03:51.000 And they paid $ 2 per viewer. I, that, that, so 77 00:03:51.699 --> 00:03:54.740 if you don't mind me asking on here, um, when 78 00:03:54.780 --> 00:03:58.719 you did those that, uh, with the YouTube channel, with the, 79 00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:00.900 with the Stokes brothers did, uh, I. 80 00:04:00.860 --> 00:04:03.680 Still work on all of them. I work on, it's not, I, 81 00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:06.050 I still work with them. I was just, I worked 82 00:04:06.069 --> 00:04:08.189 full time on YouTube. Wow. 83 00:04:08.650 --> 00:04:12.729 Okay. So do you get paid, uh, your day rates? 84 00:04:13.189 --> 00:04:14.909 I don't, I get paid a day rate and I 85 00:04:14.930 --> 00:04:17.540 get to say my fucking name. Awesome. 86 00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:18.300 And you don't get. 87 00:04:19.019 --> 00:04:23.509 And until last year, I couldn't be a heel. A heel? 88 00:04:23.550 --> 00:04:24.170 What's that mean? 89 00:04:24.189 --> 00:04:27.170 A bad guy. So what all the kids like me 90 00:04:27.230 --> 00:04:30.529 is for four years, I controlled never being a bad 91 00:04:30.569 --> 00:04:32.870 guy because that was cheap and easy. I got to 92 00:04:32.970 --> 00:04:36.920 portray police officers lazy, dumb, and I would have to 93 00:04:36.959 --> 00:04:42.100 come save their asses. And it's across hundreds and hundreds 94 00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:44.800 of millions and some billions of views. 95 00:04:45.670 --> 00:04:48.290 Now, do you get any residuals from that? Do you 96 00:04:48.310 --> 00:04:50.449 get any residuals? Do you get residuals? 97 00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:51.519 No, sir. 98 00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:52.199 What? 99 00:04:52.939 --> 00:04:54.720 No, but here's the thing. If you do a non... 100 00:04:54.740 --> 00:04:58.279 So I did a movie called Amityville Uprising. It did incredible. 101 00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:00.500 I didn't get a residual from that at all. I 102 00:05:00.540 --> 00:05:04.160 only got paid $ 150 a day on that movie. 103 00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:06.959 $ 150? 104 00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:07.560 Well, YouTube pays me four times that. 105 00:05:08.139 --> 00:05:10.970 Yeah, I believe so. I believe so. 106 00:05:11.250 --> 00:05:16.329 So what happened is when I went viral in 2020... 107 00:05:16.329 --> 00:05:20.319 They gave me an outlet to create a character that 108 00:05:20.339 --> 00:05:23.519 I'm continually using. I just booked another show, a Netflix show. 109 00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:26.839 I have four Disney Plus shows, Hulu shows, which are 110 00:05:26.860 --> 00:05:32.829 the YouTube episodes of Disney Plus with thumbnails of my face. 111 00:05:32.850 --> 00:05:35.769 I also did another show with Hulu. 112 00:05:35.410 --> 00:05:40.029 Called Rabbit Hole. And these are going across all platforms, 113 00:05:40.089 --> 00:05:41.459 including coming to Netflix. Wow. 114 00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:44.180 Oh, that is awesome, bro. 115 00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:48.670 So it's all cross-platforming. So I was so lucky to 116 00:05:48.709 --> 00:05:53.509 be able to take a big, tough guy because my 117 00:05:53.550 --> 00:05:57.449 wife's a bodybuilder. She's a pro wrestler. I'm a black belt. 118 00:05:58.009 --> 00:06:00.709 I trained three years with Dan Henderson at Team Quest. 119 00:06:01.509

--> 00:06:07.899 Ooh, nice, nice. And so the way I think I 120 00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:11.420 got introduced to you other than my kids years later 121 00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:18.199 was a certain director with the same last name as yours. Yeah. 122 00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:19.100 Yeah. 123 00:06:19.139 --> 00:06:22.660 Yeah. What's your history with that? And what happened? 124 00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:26.240 Look, I never got paid anything from his movies. I mean, 125 00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:29.000 I think I made a total out of six or 126 00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:33.389 seven movies. I think I made 300 bucks. What? Look, 127 00:06:33.410 --> 00:06:36.600 he had his place in filmmaking. He is a genre 128 00:06:36.649 --> 00:06:40.519 grindhouse filmmaker at the very low end of the video 129 00:06:40.540 --> 00:06:43.300 shelf in the 1980s and 90s. You would find his movies. 130 00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:45.540 They'd have a cool cover and they were really shit. 131 00:06:46.019 --> 00:06:50.000 I'm not talking Italian horror shit. I'm talking shit shit. 132 00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:55.519 Yeah, we're talking... So... Go ahead. 133 00:06:55.740 --> 00:06:58.009 But, yo, he had a crux. He had a couple... 134 00:06:57.759 --> 00:06:59.949 He did a couple really good things. Here's the thing. 135 00:07:00.009 --> 00:07:03.000 I'm not going to shit on him because... He put 136 00:07:03.009 --> 00:07:04.819 me in leads of these terrible movies, and I gave 137 00:07:04.819 --> 00:07:07.019 100% of myself, and you can see that if you 138 00:07:07.060 --> 00:07:09.660 watch any of them. Right, right, right. He gave me 139 00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:13.060 that platform. Yeah. Better and different. And so when you 140 00:07:13.100 --> 00:07:16.779 asked me about residuals and shit like that, no, look, 141 00:07:16.819 --> 00:07:19.009 at the end of the day, I want to have 142 00:07:19.029 --> 00:07:23.389 a resounding character that's remembered, or for something besides the 143 00:07:23.430 --> 00:07:28.769 big tattoos, you know, that my obvious size and attributes. 144 00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:32.319 And I think I've done that. I think I've been 145 00:07:32.339 --> 00:07:34.490 able to play a lot of different roles, everything from 146 00:07:34.500 --> 00:07:40.750 the Christian door knocker to FBI agent. What time is 147 00:07:40.810 --> 00:07:41.350 it right now? 148 00:07:42.350 --> 00:07:48.980 It is, well, it's 2.54 for me. He's checking his 149 00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:52.860 door dash order. I believe that he is expecting guys. 150 00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:55.279 So if you see that, that's what's happening. 151 00:07:56.160 --> 00:07:57.040 Yeah, I'm sorry. 152 00:07:57.769 --> 00:07:58.569 No, it's all good, man. 153 00:07:58.670 --> 00:08:00.829 It's all good. It's mid-time arrival. 1.15. What time is 154 00:08:00.850 --> 00:08:01.089 it now? 155 00:08:01.110 --> 00:08:05.480 Well, for me, it's... We don't have a lot of time. 156 00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:06.379 I'm just

telling you. 157 00:08:07.139 --> 00:08:07.600 Oh, okay. 158 00:08:08.060 --> 00:08:11.899 Oh, okay. My door dash. Air quotes. Look, I'm in 159 00:08:11.920 --> 00:08:14.699 the state of California, and I can order medicine to 160 00:08:14.759 --> 00:08:15.189 my door. 161 00:08:16.370 --> 00:08:17.769 That's pretty amazing. 162 00:08:18.410 --> 00:08:21.930 That's what I did, so... Oh, okay. Go ahead and 163 00:08:21.990 --> 00:08:27.220 ask any questions you like. I'd love to. Um... Look, 164 00:08:27.680 --> 00:08:31.579 I at one time was fired up on him and 165 00:08:31.800 --> 00:08:36.950 his manager. But here, man, here's the thing. There's room 166 00:08:36.990 --> 00:08:42.190 in entertainment for everybody. Is he this avant-garde director? 167 00:08:42.289 --> 00:08:42.669 No. 168 00:08:43.429 --> 00:08:46.129 But he's a genre director. He knows what he's made. 169 00:08:46.809 --> 00:08:51.820 Video games, ridiculous scenes. You know what I'm saying? 170 00:08:52.149 --> 00:08:53.379 Yeah, for sure. 171 00:08:54.639 --> 00:08:57.200 There's a place for it. I just don't want to 172 00:08:57.240 --> 00:08:57.639 live there. 173 00:08:58.500 --> 00:09:00.799 Right, right. And that's the one thing me and my friends, 174 00:09:00.820 --> 00:09:03.220 we always, we're like, yeah, we may hate his movies, 175 00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:06.379 but you know what? He's actually doing something. You know, 176 00:09:06.450 --> 00:09:09.750 he's actually putting out shit, whether, because it is shit, 177 00:09:09.870 --> 00:09:13.370 but he continuously puts out shit. 178 00:09:13.509 --> 00:09:16.509 And I saw him, my old roommate, Eric Russo, so I, 179 00:09:17.149 --> 00:09:19.190 the whole bounty hunter thing is something viral right now 180 00:09:19.210 --> 00:09:22.049 is I slapped somebody.

But how was it working 221 00:11:21.500 --> 00:11:23.370 with Cheer Bloody Murder? Because I see what they're trying 222 00:11:23.389 --> 00:11:26.309 to do.

So I had a lot of 230 00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:45.870 liberty in this. I got to go in and rewrite 231 00:11:45.899 --> 00:11:50.769 my character with the dean of the school. So he 232 00:11:50.809 --> 00:11:56.129 wrote me as, in the script it wasn't there, is 233 00:11:56.149 --> 00:12:03.110 that I had, I was mentally disabled. okay and and 234

00:12:03.929 --> 00:12:05.710 that i was his old friend from high school like 235 00:12:05.750 --> 00:12:08.509 we went deep on this and created he flew out 236 00:12:08.629 --> 00:12:12.899 here we wrote together sean approved it so last minute 237 00:12:14.159 --> 00:12:16.580 uh they uh well is not coming out to help 238 00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:21.490 produce he flies two producers out from philly one is 239 00:12:21.539 --> 00:12:26.990 tom walton the other one is jerry safier okay uh 240 00:12:28.149 --> 00:12:29.840 I was like, what the fuck is this, Sean? I 241 00:12:29.860 --> 00:12:31.279 was like, you're not going to have any control. They 242 00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:36.480 took pretty much control. I got into an uncomfortable situation 243 00:12:36.519 --> 00:12:39.879 with Tom Walton on set and we ended up squashing 244 00:12:39.899 --> 00:12:43.179 that and working on a bunch of movies together. But 245 00:12:43.250 --> 00:12:46.330 it was a very, it was a very, so most 246 00:12:46.350 --> 00:12:48.450 of the actors that were working with me didn't know 247 00:12:48.590 --> 00:12:54.009 my character arc. Oh, damn. Hold on. 248 00:12:55.049 --> 00:12:56.289 Food, your medicine's here? 249 00:12:57.649 --> 00:13:03.490 No. While I'm talking to him, how I'm going to 250 00:13:03.509 --> 00:13:04.049 pay for it. 251 00:13:05.669 --> 00:13:06.250 Wait, what did you say? 252 00:13:06.289 --> 00:13:09.100 What? I got a Zelle. Tell him how I'm paying 253 00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:09.840 for it digitally. 254 00:13:10.059 --> 00:13:11.279 Oh, gotcha, gotcha. 255 00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:13.320 Yeah, we still got a good 10 minutes before I 256 00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:16.179 have to dip out. But look, so you don't like 257 00:13:16.220 --> 00:13:16.860 Sean Phillips? 258 00:13:18.379 --> 00:13:23.179 I don't like his tactics on marketing and how every 259 00:13:23.220 --> 00:13:27.960 movie that has come out with his name attached... has 260 00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:33.580 been not so good. One of the writers on this 261 00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:38.159 film that I haven't mentioned stole an idea from me. Actually, 262 00:13:38.220 --> 00:13:42.279 pretty much my concept for another film. We were friends. 263 00:13:42.919 --> 00:13:47.289 And then he lied to me about the film that 264 00:13:47.429 --> 00:13:50.990 I did a short film for. And we were so 265 00:13:51.070 --> 00:13:54.590 serious compared to other shorts and everything else. We were 266 00:13:54.610 --> 00:13:57.289 the most serious ones. And we didn't know we needed 267 00:13:57.309 --> 00:13:59.549 to be campy or anything. So we look like a 268 00:13:59.590 --> 00:14:00.090 fish out. 269 00:14:00.149 --> 00:14:03.389 Like, like, well, if you look at Dustin, look at 270 00:14:03.409 --> 00:14:05.750 a bowl of racks. I keep getting credited with that. 271 00:14:05.769 --> 00:14:08.049 Cause I wrote me and Eric wrote all that. And 272 00:14:08.090 --> 00:14:12.309 it's quite straight. It's not

campy. Right. Like, well, I 273 00:14:12.409 --> 00:14:15.360 execute Eric. I got snot to play, which was just 274 00:14:15.379 --> 00:14:17.679 because if you look at what we did, it's not rack. 275 00:14:17.720 --> 00:14:19.059 No NATO. We filmed that. 276 00:14:19.799 --> 00:14:20.419 Okay. 277 00:14:20.519 --> 00:14:22.659 We've realized what he was doing. So we've made it 278 00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:24.700 super campy for NATO. 279 00:14:25.820 --> 00:14:26.120 Right. 280 00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:30.309 And I, me and him directed, that was just us filmmaking. Yeah. So, 281 00:14:30.409 --> 00:14:32.850 so yeah, no, I understand that situation, but when it 282 00:14:32.889 --> 00:14:35.919 comes to working with at this lower end or even 283 00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:39.059 at the higher end, people are always going to try 284 00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:41.740 to manipulate it to their favor. You know what I mean? Yeah. 285 00:14:41.799 --> 00:14:45.360 But, but the backstabbing and stuff is like, is not needed. 286 00:14:45.460 --> 00:14:47.779 Like me, I know, I know who I am. I 287 00:14:47.820 --> 00:14:51.220 know what I've done. And like, I just feel like 288 00:14:51.240 --> 00:14:54.870 there wasn't respect in, in, in that sense. And then 289 00:14:54.950 --> 00:14:56.409 after everything I get blocked. 290 00:14:56.429 --> 00:14:59.429 Like I said, I was on set and had a 291 00:14:59.470 --> 00:15:02.809 producer tell me what the fuck was going on. You 292 00:15:03.090 --> 00:15:05.659 know what I mean? I never met in my life 293 00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:09.580 and kind of got aggressive. I'm a big scary guy. 294 00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:16.450 I'm very well trained. Very well trained. Hand to hand, weapons, everything. 295 00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:24.429 It's always funny when... No, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Oh, damn. 296 00:15:24.590 --> 00:15:25.049 You got to go? 297 00:15:27.370 --> 00:15:30.730 In a couple minutes, yeah. No, no, no. I hear you. 298 00:15:31.929 --> 00:15:34.860 I think Sean's a good kid. I think he's a 299 00:15:34.879 --> 00:15:36.820 really good kid. I think he's in over his head 300 00:15:36.860 --> 00:15:38.750 most of the time. He tries to do as well 301 00:15:38.779 --> 00:15:42.049 as he can. Yeah. Uh, I don't think he's a 302 00:15:42.090 --> 00:15:46.870 bad kid. I'm glad this movie's coming out. Yeah. Lauren Francesca. 303 00:15:46.929 --> 00:15:49.169 I'm glad she's in the scout. Taylor Compton was only 304 00:15:49.230 --> 00:15:50.070 on this one day. 305 00:15:50.750 --> 00:15:54.129 Wait, scout Taylor's in it. That wasn't publicized. 306 00:15:54.169 --> 00:15:58.740 Taylor Compton. Oh boy. Okay. Okay. Front of the trailer. Oh, okay. 307 00:15:58.750 --> 00:15:59.360 That makes sense. 308 00:15:59.399 --> 00:16:05.620 Todd bridges in this Tom size more, uh, Fuck. Andy Dick. 309 00:16:06.379 --> 00:16:08.940 Robert Lozardo. Todd Bridges. 310 00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:12.470 They did one day with all of these crazy old 311 00:16:12.570 --> 00:16:13.169 school actors. 312 00:16:13.230 --> 00:16:14.110 Sean Whalen. 313 00:16:14.450 --> 00:16:19.529 Oh, wow. Dude, it's funny. It's a really funny movie. 314 00:16:19.649 --> 00:16:21.990 Is it a whodunit mystery, though? Like, at the end, 315 00:16:22.029 --> 00:16:23.250 you know, you get revealed. 316 00:16:24.509 --> 00:16:26.250 Dude, it's a fun movie. 317 00:16:26.529 --> 00:16:26.870 Okay. 318 00:16:27.330 --> 00:16:33.169 It's titties.

That producer who acted like a 329 00:17:06.559 --> 00:17:07.440 dick to me that day. 330 00:17:08.099 --> 00:17:11.259 Okay, okay. See, yeah, for everyone watching, this is kind 331 00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:14.180 of like the behind the scenes on shit that unfortunately 332 00:17:14.220 --> 00:17:17.589 happens on the indie circuit. It's just, it's going to happen. 333 00:17:17.609 --> 00:17:18.369 It's inevitable. 334 00:17:18.430 --> 00:17:20.210 You can't take anything personally. You just got to keep 335 00:17:20.230 --> 00:17:22.849 moving forward. Right. And that's the thing is like, look, 336 00:17:23.549 --> 00:17:25.710 I've had my name spelled wrong on all kinds of things. 337 00:17:25.880 --> 00:17:30.039 I've been miscredited. This can't bloody murder or whatever. They 338 00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:32.339 don't even list me in the cast. And I've got 339 00:17:33.059 --> 00:17:37.299 two Netflix shows for Disney plus shows this year, a 340 00:17:37.740 --> 00:17:42.009 movie in theaters. And they don't mention me. I literally 341 00:17:42.049 --> 00:17:45.269 have the biggest arc through this whole movie, but you know, 342 00:17:46.609 --> 00:17:48.839 I'm sounding butthurt when I'm talking to you, but I'm not. 343 00:17:48.890 --> 00:17:49.339 It's okay. 344 00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:49.859 It's okay. 345 00:17:49.900 --> 00:17:50.640 No, no, I get it. 346 00:17:50.640 --> 00:17:52.640 It's part of the business. You know what I mean? 347 00:17:52.660 --> 00:17:55.500 Yeah, absolutely. So if you don't have a thick skin, 348 00:17:55.619 --> 00:17:58.579 everyone watching this, don't get into the film world, film business. 349 00:17:58.599 --> 00:18:00.200 Don't get into the movie business. Again, like I said, 350

As I owned tattoo shops for years, 363 00:18:35.809 --> 00:18:38.630 I was living in safety for years. You know what? 364 00:18:39.150 --> 00:18:40.880 I said, fuck it. But I got to go, buddy. 365 00:18:40.890 --> 00:18:44.420 Follow your dreams. I got to grab this fucking bag. 366 00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:46.900 All right, I'll hit you up later, Mike.

All right, bye. 369 00:18:50.700 --> 00:18:53.759 All right, for everyone that is tuning in, right now, 370 00:18:54.000 --> 00:19:00.470 we just had an interview with... Let me hide it 371 00:19:00.549 --> 00:19:05.589 from you. There we go. We had an interview and discussion, 372 00:19:05.609 --> 00:19:10.150 a quick discussion with actor Mike Ferguson, who's got over 373 00:19:10.299 --> 00:19:16.240 a billion views on YouTube. He is connected to a 374 00:19:16.509 --> 00:19:19.210 lot of people and has been a part of a 375 00:19:19.309 --> 00:19:23.690 lot of projects. And even though this was a very quick, quick, 376 00:19:23.809 --> 00:19:27.130 quick interview, I just wanted to get him on here 377 00:19:27.150 --> 00:19:29.579 because he has this new movie coming out that is 378 00:19:29.630 --> 00:19:34.839 called Cheer Bloody Murder, originally called Screen Bloody Murder. And 379 00:19:34.880 --> 00:19:36.980 I think they probably changed it because Screen Bloody Murder 380 00:19:37.039 --> 00:19:38.779 is a film right now. 381 00:19:39.039 --> 00:19:39.559 That's out there. 382 00:19:40.119 --> 00:19:42.819 So check it out.
