I started making YouTube videos at 14 years old, and for over half of my life now, I've been fortunate to call it my career. Along the way, I’ve met incredible people, founded and helped build FaZe Clan, and gained firsthand insight into the worlds of social media, Hollywood, sports, and the many pitfalls of business. Despite billions of views and a public NASDAQ debut worth $1 billion, we faced a staggering 99% value crash that nearly erased 13 years of effort. Now, as I look to the future, I’m reflecting on the highs and lows that have brought me here. Hundreds of creators, athletes, and actors share similar struggles with success, stress, and the challenge of balancing public and private lives. This podcast offers an honest perspective, connecting with guests in a way few can, giving them a comfortable space to open up—because I’ve lived through much of it myself.
