[@HalfDigit]

[@billybob-wu5zh]

Boze and his arch nemesis the T-shirt -zinni 😂

[@SukMaBaLLsS]

[@mrtopshotta4487]

I know boze be hot asf wearing black everyday in tx

[@RubenSmokes]

I feel like he should own it at this point

[@fdog95]

We love Maniac, he always knows how to get to Hecz 😂

[@Sonicorp]

I wonder if Hitch is gonna go back to streaming his his little corner of the Heaczquaters, I loved all the shenanigans that would happen behind him while he streamed in the office.

[@manci]

he said on stream the other day hes gonna stay home

[@Sonicorp]

@@manci Oh okay thanks for the info, I would stay at home also after moving your whole setup home would be a pain to set it back at the office and also the commute to the office but of been killing Hitch especially if he lived far.

[@jonathan.sullivan]

Watch Hecz blog when he tours the office. Hitch says he gets an office this time.

[@manci]

@@jonathan.sullivan fax he has an office he just said he wasnt gonna stream there

[@Sonicorp]

@@jonathan.sullivan Yeah I saw that wasn't sure if he was being sarcastic or not

[@jedirayden]

Nick's a real one for what he said about the wedding being one of those few moments in your life where nothing else matters.

[@dontworryboutmeok]

Bro it’s cool yall back but man for once the merger happened and we have seen less and less too none of Hastro!! Where is he, what’s been going on we need updates on him Hecz he’s part of the family

[@papichulo2960]

Scump stressing so hard off 2 weeks like chill out live your life bro damn

[@BeefyCats]

He’s missing out on all of his simps donating him $1000 plus daily. That’s why he stresses lol, he’s missing out on a ton of money for just playing a video game on stream.

[@bayy1ee]

my mind can’t comprehend how Scump can’t enjoy 2-3 weeks off without always talking about it..this guy can take 3 months off and will come back and have the same amount of viewers/support he’s had the last 10+ years…i don’t get it

[@jason735]

Bro see’s dollar signs everywhere and is a huge tight ass he’s scared of losing money lol

[@BeefyCats]

It’s money. Imagine that all you have to do is sit down , turn on a stream, and play video games all day while simps donate a constant stream of money to you for no reason. Scump has randoms just dumping $1000 + a day on him for just sitting there. That’s what he really means when he says that he can’t stand taking so much time off.

[@SurpinsS]

@@BeefyCatsmoney is his last concern.

[@rebelli0ns]

I live in Chicago and been an OpTic fan since the 6050 days. Miss yall in Chicago I would love for yall to come back

[@JFB199]

Scump is almost getting anoying stressing about 2 weeks off. Dude we DONT care at all if you take 2 weeks or 3-4-5, live your life.

[@nickfr3353]

Podcast outside smoking cigars, bourbon. Late evening sounds 🔥 hecs.

[@HP-rz7ew]

Seth enjoy your life man, 2 weeks off is nothing. You work hard, chill out.

[@PJ-wv3bx]

I loved the podcast setup in the Heczquarters 2 but this setup hits different

[@Every-3-Days]

I think you should go visit Cincinnati and Pittsburgh, You would enjoy those cities as well.

[@austinpaw3024]

We need a formal, shotzzy, mboze and Nick show. Just them 4 talking about anything

[@jarrettsaladino3535]

Enjoy your time off Seth dont stress about work. You will make it up brother. Also went downtown Chicago for a visit it was absolutely beautiful. Girodanos Pizza Deep dish man. Everything was amazing.

[@jaymatau9245]

Just a suggestion but of course yall doing your thing , I would love if yall had like segments where there would be games or something in the podcast

17:54 boze a certified unc with that movement

[@vvemomusic5543]

Fire episode!Love the old vibes, Boze looks like a garden gnome from New York. 😂 its all love man I hope he don’t take it so serious, I look like Mr Crabs when he’s out of the shell. lol I love Optic man!

[@outdoorogre4279]

Here after the major and im really curious on how hecz is thinking about otx now. i really dont want this team to split up because they have endless potential and i know they can figure it out but how long will that take is the million dollar question and how long will they all continue before doing something different. Im an armchair analyst so i dont want to say things i have no business saying but all i know is that i love this team and i really hope they take the final biggest tournament and show what they are really made of. great pod thanks for being the goats.

[@dylangrondarealtor6069]

Only Sponsor ive ever watched from optic.... and that was actually funny

[@lucasphillips5399]

The random NiaC running/pool streams will be remembered

[@azreal8169]

25:24 bro Scump, do what you want too do and what you feel is best for you honestly, but you can’t carry your entire life. 💯 Plus it’s sucks to see people who’ve never played comp COD but have all the answers after watching a mini-map

[@emilioescalera1377]

I wish scump would realize taking time to himself and his wife is what matters. Who cares what those brain dead “part timers” say. I respect the grind and hard work, but enjoy those memory makers.

[@tomslck_]

I watch these podcast on my lunch break and I swear yall talk about dog shit everytime I’m eating 😂😂😂

[@pushintree]

The shottzy ad is fucking golden 😂

[@KamKelli]

that shotzzy ad kills me everytime 😂

[@chrisherbst3049]

Shottzys commercial is comedy😂

[@dg3697]

I’m from Chicago and it is indeed the best city in the world

[@iplayhd6860]

You guys should epoxy the floor optic colors that’ll be clean

[@scottsundwall6753]

That shotzzy ad I'm fucking weak now that's effort

[@saintnerdherder3569]

So happy for you guys :)

[@SteelSBG]

Great episode! Really insightful! Thank you!

[@mr.martin6243]

I’ve learned maniac is the WORST dog owner of ALL TIME 🤣😂

[@colebaumgartner2494]

What lead you guys to moving back to the hecz quarters instead of the Dallas office?

[@nbdyankz8344]

Probably easier for everybody to get there not everyone lived close to the downtown offices

[@carrottop4029]

Very good work on the cash app ad

[@sanjeetr]

Considering where maniac was years ago fighting demons, I'M REALLY HAPPY to hear the guy is doing well with a house.

[@FlameARS]

I just started playing elden ring a week ago and I haven't played anything else since, shit is so good. Can't wait to get to the dlc too

[@bladerunnerr2624]

Hope Optic can pull off a miracle this weekend, let’s go boys #GREENWALL

[@SukMaBaLLsS]

Niac a vibe this time, besides the lil whining about the drive 😂

comin back here to say, they went out early DAMN!!

me watching after the optic match

This man Scump acting like he gonna get arrested if he misses some streams brotha stopped stressing about scrims to stress even more about watch parties and missing a stream

[@vibe0ne10]

Shoutout my boy NiaC

[@beanh3ad500]

Scump buggin nobody cares if he takes a 2 week break 😂

[@Youngezquire]

So excited 💯

[@Goopytv]

Seth, you level up in the dlc by in game items. Not levels!

[@angelz057]

Great Pod

[@justinw9982]

What was the drive to have the wedding THAT day? I'm assuming it has some significance.

[@vvemomusic5543]

My one and only problem with how the guys are talking about this bad stint the COD team is going through is the fact that Faze NEVER go through that. Faze have had moments many times where they’re playing very bad but they still manage to clutch the W. Even Ultra go through their lows but they have never looked as bad as Optic do right now. Its really concerning, they look like they’re a step back.

[@Apollo4D]

If I’m hecz I set a mandatory meeting with the team, get Kenny and Pred their optic chains, remind them of who the fuck they are as players and remind them who they are as a team.

[@ImFencinqq]

Episode 181 but the graphic says "Episode 182" OOOOO someone is getting fireddddd

[@gerbra11]

Scump just live ur life stop caring about chat life is to quick for them

[@FrankThaThird]

Watching this after the Major, is…something.

[@PumpkinKingzz]

Scump talking about the commute like he doesn’t Uber to work everyday. Who cares how far it is when you’re not driving

[@lhcmknrb]

I mean it still costs money. Everything about a long commute is drastically inconvenient.

[@PumpkinKingzz]

Not to him. Company pays for it. They talked about it on one of the other pods or the watch party.

[@lhcmknrb]

@@PumpkinKingzz regardless, time is time. Absolutely no one wants to wake up and drive or leave work and have a 50 minute commute. You just lose so much time in your life.

[@PumpkinKingzz]

@@lhcmknrb fair enough

[@VicRoseUp]

Did they get rid of the Downtown Dallas spot?

[@AlexGonzalez-cx3rh]

I wonder how Hecz feels about the dr disrespect situation, feels bad for hecz

[@OrionInSpace]

Just assume he’s probably going to say the same thing as everybody else. Given he probably has a longer history with Doc (Guy Beahm) then most other streamers who have played with him it might take him longer to process.

[@alexcarlone7967]

Love how people still tied themselves to him after he cheated and got banned off twitch which was an obvious red flag

[@sartyy2069]

Scump acts like he’ll lose viewers if he stops streaming for a few weeks. Bro will probably end up getting even better viewership when he comes back

[@Shel230]

Nah instead of streaming they should help there call of duty team there doing bad

[@joshpd8090]

You know Boze and Hecs smoked with each other before this. I feel like their friendship growed a lot off camera

wait so they are back at the og hq or a different room??

Is Maniac salaried just to do 1 podcast a week (if that)? At least Boze has a clothing business

[@cdlocalz7542]

quits being pro for more free time then works even more

[@TTV_Alkemmii]

Where were they and why did the return to the Quarters again?

[@ScottHasADog]

They were at the Envy Hq building in Dallas. Not sure on why they returned. Probably got a stellar deal

[@MrCoolcodvideos]

I assume the downtown quarters will be an actual office while the HQZ will be a content/esports only thing

[@edmundmonge9587]

Is the Heczquarters in Texas still?

[@TTV_Alkemmii]

@@edmundmonge9587 yeah it’s the same office as the one before the last one

I just really hope this COD Team doesn't break up regardless of how the year goes, this team can dominate in Black Ops 6.

You don’t actually like optic if you want this team to stick

[@SurpinsS]

@@Hushed_1that logic is dumb. And who do they even pick up?
