Maniac is cool. Partied with him one time and you realize these guys are just normal people. Love girl and love fun.

[@JMillamusic]

“You’re gonna live the rest of your days there, how long do you last?” “Till I die” Maniac giving off some major Theo von vibes😂

[@Jonathick]

Yo whoever puts these up can we get time stamps to break the podcast up into segments? Especially as I’m out and about it would help to see how much longer the segment is so I can finish it etc.

[@Tonskiislegit]

I think we need a Maniac on an island (camping 24 hours with nothing and has to “hunt” to get his food and make a fire and everything…

[@fpsreaper6672]

Where can i get the Hoodie Hecz is wearing? It's not anywhere on their optic merch website

[@aghostwiener]

Bro survival optic 24hr vid would be dope af

[@Wireyy]

I had gout a couple times. Some of the worst pain I have ever had. Lowered my alcohol intake and haven’t got it since.

[@Herscheyyz]

The only thing I always dislike is when Boze speaks about hood things or street things and he halfway knows what he’s talking about what has absolutely no idea, but then also doesn’t realize that him saying things like he knows what he’s talking about put some misconceptions out there to people watching and listening. That’s why Hecz is smart and said “if we don’t know the facts, than we shouldn’t talk about it“ and moved on

[@xavebrizuela]

OpTic Overlanding let's go!

I was there the night the building caught on fire next to the burj khalifa in dubai, it was insane fire was huge and lasted 3 days

[@Ryzeu]

Lmaooo “y’know the podcast got way better as soon as Roger got here”

[@cmooreplaz]

37:18 I am very curious about dieting and what the best diets are and if diets work differently for different people, because I have heard of people having a diet exactly the opposite of your father’s diet, Hecz, such as Jordan Peterson and his daughter both had an extreme amount of health issues and they started eating only meet and they said all of their health issues went away. I would like to see a study done comparing the two diets.

[@Hoodiedarr]

Idk what that hoodie Hecz has on but I NEEEEEEED it

[@bludvlfn191]

WHERE DO I GET THAT STYLE HOODIE????? SHIT IS FRESH TO DEATH!!!!!

Hecz is the biggest poser when it comes to most things but especially basketball he needs to start calling himself a Jordan fan and that’s it

[@booster4323]

@@Widhcdkajdbkdp Stg lmaooo I love Hecz but he got asked what other players he liked besides Jordan & he played it off until they pulled up all the players from the 90s and he started actin like he really fucked w them 🤣🤣

[@j3n1us]

Imagine in 20 years when the old crew isn’t even in optic content anymore. And the professional sports teams only see hecz and Scump as old men presenting trophies and stuff lol. And we are all old and reminiscing
