Hello, big Cleetus fan here. Was hoping you could give more details on your comment. Your OG comment was not really clear and left things extremely ambiguous. Did or didn't you have issues with helicopters? Reread your OG post and you will understand. Thanks, Will

[@russkeith3317]

@@will8163 We did not have issues with helicopters. The helicopters were the star of the show. Fixed wings did an amazing job but unlike any other deployment we have done a lot of the areas we needed to get in were unaccessable by fixed wing. Cleetus did a great job.

The Cleetus Effect: he makes everyone around him better by supporting them. He gathers high moral and extremely skilled people around him. And when people point out the obvious, that he's a special dude, he tries to pass the credit on to others. We made the right guy famous.

[@Halfstep2024]

I don’t think there’s a single person that’s been around watching Cleet for a while that even remotely thinks he did it for attention.

[@yomomma6492]

Hell even if he did (which I doubt it) it brought more attention to the area, and he helped a ton of people in the process. I love when KZbinrs go to areas like this because we get a much closer look at the devastation than what a 30 second news interview can give.

[@Halfstep2024]

@@yomomma6492 Exactly.. he doesn’t “need” to do anything but be himself with his people to garner all the attention one man can handle. I think some people are just negative as hell and they can’t stand to see anyone do anything positive.

[@yomomma6492]

@@Halfstep2024 definitely a lot of people who are just negative because they can be unfortunately.

[@Gnat-in-Your-Eye]

You are 100% correct.. any of Cleet's true fans know that his heart is in the right place... and just because it's a devastating situation for the people affected by the hurricane doesn't mean that he's not going to find a bit of excitement and thrill in flying his brand new helicopter, especially knowing he can do something meaningful and impactful with it. Also, he vehemently expressed his thanks to his viewers for even being in the position to be able to own and operate the helicopter and help the people that needed it. I often wonder if the people that say things like "he just did it or posted it for attention" really feel that way or if they are just trolls... I've met trolls. they're people just who get off on sowing discord simply for the sake of sowing discord. those people exist, unfortunately.

[@ryankelly5426]

​@@yomomma6492 I also doubt he did, but if he did, the attention he brought to it on the whole would far outweigh anything else. But like I said, I don't think he did.

[@ITSNUFFY]

This is why Cleetus is one of the very few KZbinrs that I follow on this platform. You can see when they’re talking about him in a positive manner. He is super uncomfortable. He is fidgeting playing with things because he doesn’t like the spotlight he is a genuine human being.

[@TheCoopa87]

Watching Cleet Squirm while Mr Sam talks him up will never get old.

[@HopeStreetWoodworks]

Here's the thing about politics. It's everywhere, you can't escape it. It's nice to watch a channel and just get away from all of that garbage for a while. If his channel started putting politics into the mix, I'm sure it would turn some viewers off. If you want politics, there are plenty of channels that offer that.

[@Joebobinator]

Agreed. Especially with how polarized things have gotten I think everyone is tired of it. I love that Cleet intentionally avoids it, it wouldn't add anything to the channel and no matter what you say someone is gonna get pissed off.

[@CODE-BROWN]

Agreed. I'm one of his viewers that isn't voting for Trump. I'll still watch his content, mainly because he doesn't bring it up. It's why I don't sub to Cooper, he brings it up and I think his opinion is shit. If he dropped the politics and stuck to car shit, I'd sub. Plenty of creators and news sources out there for that shit. I watch KZbin like people watch cable, this is my entertainment. Politics isn't entertaining.

Policy impacts every Americans daily life, empty Platitudes and a fake Personality/Accents do not. There are only two choices.....vote rationally, not emotionally.

I'm 57 and have been watching Garrett back from the beginning. My son is the same age and we used to get a kick out of his videos. Never stopped watching, he is good clean fun and does exciting things. The addition of Sam to the team was brilliant. I love that dude, he reminds me of my grandpa. He was out hunting with us into his 80s. He would jump in the passenger seat with Sam and have a blast. One of my favorite channels.

[@scottstevenson6356]

How can you not but love Sam, such a genuine guy. I think his maturity and wisdom really galvanises the team. From originally just popping up in the background in videos to becoming a vital part of the team, it’s been a fantastic journey for us viewers to watch. Absolutely love that he’s living his best life right now.

[@joshfosho]

Cleet admitting all the projects just to win was the realest funniest part, it just so happens we're all along to enjoy the ride

[@Joebobinator]

I think a lot of the channel's success comes from Cleetus and the crew doing what makes them happy. It's organic, people can tell when creators are doing something for the algorithm that they aren't excited about.

[@jclaybaugh2]

@@Joebobinatorexactly, I think the randomness of them just doing what they love vs the goal of getting views is part of the magic. You also can’t fake the teams level of interest on these projects - the Dale truck is a great example.

[@djjazzyjeff1232]

@@Joebobinator Exactly right, the Spray Wax thing is a perfect example of that. They're like, "I think if we do this right it's gonna be awesome" and then let the chips fall where they may. Cooper's observation about how most influencers "Decide how much money they want to make and work backwards from there" couldn't be more spot on. Cleetus actively DOESN'T operate that way, and I say that's the key to his success. And also the key to why most of the time the Freedom Factory is absolutely spotless after an event. He respects his viewers, and therefore they respect him as well.

[@GrantDolanMusic]

I am forever grateful that Cleetus does not include politics in his videos. He is entailed to his opinion and his right to vote for who he wants, but it takes away from the fun of his channel if he included it. He has every right to put it in his videos if he wants, but the last thing I want to think about when I see Leroy going 6’s is Trump or Harris. Cleetus is an escape from that stuff. Although their policies do affect the sport I don’t need to hear about it on the main channel. That’s what the second channel and podcasts are for.

Cleet is The Boss, but you know if there was ever a heated situation and Mr. Sam stepped in and shouted "HEY THAT'S ENOUGH OF THAT!" Every member of the team (including Garrett) would tuck that tail, back down, and hush. That's all because of RESPECT. Just how it should be.

[@djjazzyjeff1232]

I agree, I came to the channel for the OG Dale Truck content from a few years ago, and frankly that sort of "doing random stuff on the street" is my favorite content, this Sidecar stuff George and Cleet has been doing is among my favorite videos ever on the channel. BUT, you get to learn all about these dudes through that, and then you find a video like the first 7 second Stick Shift Leroy video and can enjoy that also. I've never been a huge drag racing fan, still am not, honestly, but I'm interested in cool cars and racing, just not that particular discepline BUT, I'm a fan of the whole crew, so I'm happy to watch because I enjoy the people involved.

Mr. Sam don’t think the true followers said that about Cleet. When the video came out it gave me chills watching and I was proud of him for going.

I'm in Florida about 30 minutes from the track, and my car gets rained on a lot during the spring/summer. I used to wash it every 1-2 weeks because of water spots, but after I started using Sam's spray wax, the water beads like it's been ceramic coated. I wash it once every month or two now. It's amazing.

Cleet barely even filmed or posted himself helping. He could have easily posted a few hour video of him helping. Truly a hero.

[@Agent_Stark14]

Great episode as always! It’d be cool as Cleet branches out more and more, at some point he creates/gets a shop solely for official racing ventures (like a Hendrick Motorsport operation of sorts) because I agree with Coop that Cleet’s content is growing rapidly and ballooning in certain areas (I still love all the content regardless). That it is a constant struggle to find out what new viewers want and what the loyal viewers want. Idk I’m just spit balling here. But I fully believe Cleet could become a modern Mr. Hendrick and continue to constantly grow in the racing auto world and in the recreational auto world.

[@wyattp9152]

I clicked for both! Thank you, Cleeter, for keeping the shop drama off of the channel. I respect that you always try to show everything in a positive way. Anyone who's everything worked with more than 3 people knows that there's drama at some point.

[@TheRealTnT4u]

I think people will continue to watch his channel just because it feels genuine. And when he said they just make content on what's in their hearts, it really shows in the video's. I've been watching his channel from the beginning. I've never really been into racing because I could never afford it, but its entertaining to watch Garrett and his crew struggle just as normal guys. The non racing stuff is just a bonus because a lot of it is more relatable to people because most of it could be done by the average person, for example the underwater tracker. Not to mention the "science" videos are just funny. When they were going hard on that I gifted some lab coats from amazon to them.

Years ago when everyone started following Cleetus we all saw Cooper as the the more business minded friend and on screen partner to save Cleetus from himself at times...😂. I think that's why when he left Cleetus's channel is was a suprise to everyone. But let me be the first to say I think Garrett and Cooper both knew they both had to go different directions from a business standpoint to each flourish independently. Now that we've seen what Garrett has done with the Cleetus channel and what Cooper is building with his podcast, I think we can all agree it was the right decision and has worked out. They remain friends and support each other 110%. I think Cooper is set to be one of the best Automotive Podcasters in the industry and is just getting started. With the support of Cleetus as a friend willing to do anything to help Cooper aswell as his own aspirations and relationships. I think Coopers break is coming and his sub count and spot on the podcast charts will increase substantially! Your great as a podcast host Cooper! Keep up the great work!

[@dingleonurroof]

Cooper has always been the lazy one in the background. He started his own car channel without knowing anything about cars. He also foams at the mouth when he gets to talk about conspiracies. This is the perfect example of being in the right place at the right time. He wouldn't have gotten 10 subs without the people around him.

Sam is so full of wisdom. What a guy. The team is lucky to have him and keep them grounded. I love to watch each one of them, but Sam is an Authentic, Genuine, and Humble example for them to aspire to. Hats off to you Sam. Keep up the good work Bruddah. 👍

From like 1:20:00 on it made me come to realization that I’m wasn’t and still not really totally into racing. But I’ve watched every cleetus video over the last 5 years and I just genuinely love all the content these guys make and watch and root for the boys in whatever they do!

Even the vinyl fencing here in Iowa blows over lol. I built my fence with steel fence posts in 80lb of concrete per post and used cedar planks. Pretty sure it could survive a cat 4 or ef5 nado lol

[@IANHANDS]

Yeah great

The museum in dayton OH has a lot of military aircraft on display. They got an entire hanger with ex presidential aircraft. Cool to see in person and its donation entry fee.

Don't forget about Newport, TN. everything that Asheville got went down stream to Newport, TN from 2 rivers. French Broad River and the Pigeon River which the dam broke at the NC/TN state line which went to Newport.

It's so great to see Garrett surround himself with such good people that truly support and believe in him! I was fortunate enough to meet Garrett and George. Just talking to George when Garrett wasn't around you can tell he truly cares and hearing the way Sam takes up/ talks about Garrett you can tell he truly cares.

[@steverebuilds152]

Sam deserves more credit than a million people could even fathom. The work he does on things that NOBODY sees

[@azurefog]

Sam in a suit for a podcast. What a class act!

[@DustinN828]

Living here and being born in Asheville, this Is the craziest thing I have ever witnessed.

Noone thinks cleets voting for kamala

[@rogerrandolph9685]

I watched this show because of Both! Loved the entire show. Hope everyone has a wonderful day and do something nice for at least one other person.

[@NoNameMnk]

Politically speaking it was rather obvious which side Cleetus was on but I have no problems watching his content. If he was pushing politics in car content I doubt I would be all that interested. So I don't see the benefit of talking politics in your content, unless politics is what you specialize in, as no matter which side you're on you'll alienate half of your potential audience. People already know who they are voting for so you're not going to change anyone's mind. We already have enough politics in everything else so it's nice to have places like Cleetus's channel where it's not pushed in peoples faces.

[@mlc5460]

I don’t understand why people think everybody needs to disclose their picks. When I was a kid, my parents didn’t tell each other or talk about it. If I asked, I was told they voted for Mickey Mouse. I appreciate him not including politics in his channel. If I wanted to watch something on politics there are channels that cover that.

[@djjazzyjeff1232]

That's exactly right. They're a bunch of rednecks from Florida who are non-political on their channel. Where do you THINK they line up? In my experience, most of the time when people shut their mouths about it generally, they're probably right-leaning.

A bit frustrating to hear Coop constantly say "They had no idea for DAYS" and people who were actually there speak to how well the response was being organised by locals.

[@ocdrums24]

Yeah by locals. I’m pretty sure he is talking about the rest of the country. The national news hardly covered it the first few days.

[@mlc5460]

I’d question where he gets his news or if he watches the news. I’d give him a pass having an infant though. Anderson Cooper did a segment with Bill Weir that Friday night talking about the humanitarian crisis unfolding in Asheville. The news was out there if you wanted to know.

[@Mltemple8333]

Agreed on locals but the national news seemed to be ignoring part of the state that should have been shown so that people understood the devastation and could help in any way the can.

[@yeahok115sure]

He was referring specifically to the government, not the locals, not the local government. How did you not get that?

[@jsomething2]

cooper is eat up with politics. I'm sure gets just repeating what the right has been feeding him thru all his socials. like cleetus said, the rain started while the rest of the media was focused on the hurricane hitting FL. People act like the president should snap his fingers and magically air drop new house in. that's just not how anything works. and as they said, they are well setup to handle events that happen all the time. you can't prepare for something that's never happened in that area. but what do you expect from people that think trump has policies haha.
