This feels like the first time Shotzzy has had a real honest open podcast like 1v1 convo where we learned a lot about him personally. This was dope to hear 💯💚
very much the only personality in the cdl that’s unapologetically himself. my favorite player (biased) not just for his gameplays and overall knowledge of the game,but.outside of the game and cameras this guy is a personable fun person to chill or just do anything with. keep frying ant
Man it’s days like these that I can’t imagine Hitch anywhere else. Appreciate this man for everything he’s done and given/created for OpTic and the fans! Congrats on the new ring to that boy Antonio Cuevas
First time I watch this pod and I got to say Hitch, you're a fantastic host. You let Shottzy speak, never interrupted him and jumped in when applicable. Just subscribed!
Shotzzy was the ONLY pro that could spring jump consistently. He was literally the best. It would be insane if a game developer put in a skill gap like that again
this is probably the most casual and professional I think I have seen shotzzy so far this podcast didnt even feel like it was an hour long thats how you know you got a good podcast
Hitch you have truly grown and elevated yourself into a great creator. You asked very well organized and conversational questions. You allowed Shotzzy to open up and feel comfortable. We all have learned more about the MVP then any other Interview!
I just love shottzy man , he’s just having fun. I also love that he’s himself , says silly things , will ask questions like on here when he didn’t know some words I love that honestly and h just being totally genuine. He’s the sort of guy that you want to do well
yessir you’re right , im latino and was raised how ant is explaining and my ma and tia made sangria during parties but besides that it was no liquor or smoke
He said can you feed me water 😂😂😂 that whole conversation had me dying I think we can all relate to getting stupid high the first time you got stoned as hell 😂👌
@@JayCoombs what are you saying…I know he’s not a kid bro lmao it’s just a figure of speech. I been watching THE MAN play since H5 when he was still practically a kid. So how about you lay off your weird take👍
@@JayCoombsThis while logical is also a weird take. This is something constantly said in COD. Shotzzy has said it about people his own age. Your response is weird because it feels like it is from someone that hasn’t watched the scene. With the kid talk coming from when we were all kids playing the game. Now if you take it literal as anything other than what it is then that is some weird behavior from you.
Man this was so awesome to learn more about Ant. As a Halo fan I wish I watched more of his streams. Has always seemed like a great person. Loved it for a while when he started doing vlogs.
Springjumping on H5 was hard af. You had to jump/land in crouch then release crouch while almost simultaneously jumping, it had to be within the same frame. Even though the game ran at 60FPS, it was tough to hit consistently. Shotzzy and Splyce revolutionised H5 Great podcast with brilliant questions, big up
i wish seth would come out of retirement and we would get to see the seth and shotzzy duo during a year where no bs as he puts it happens. its also interesting how seths role changed throughout his career from the top guy to a fill and support role sort of how damon was during optics reign
I feel like the conversation of greatest FPS between Formal and Shotzzy will be much like the Lebron vs Jordan debate. Its been magical being able to watch Shotzzy these past few years but maaaan prime Formal was different like you just had to be there.
I’ve been there through both of them and watched them both win all their championships and prime shotzzy is just something magical though Formal in IW champs put up something that’s hard to replicate but shotzzy goes absolutely bananas
I love this man lmaooo, any time I hear a non smoker talk ab their experience, it's hard not to laugh lmao but sum of us have been there our first time...
When it comes to favorite Players. Shotzzy is my favorite for overall talent. He’s funny asf because he is literally just lost all the time 😂 he can follow scumps footsteps and he will be just as successful at Seth
This is random but Ant talking about the Spring Jump he could do 100/100 times made me think that he'd be an insane speedrunner in another life probably
And everyone had to use the scoreboard method to get their spring jumps consistent lol meanwhile he's just doing it the geniune skillful way with 100% accuracy lol everyone else would maybe get it 20 percent of the time.
Omg the same shit happens to me when I had gotten high in the past. Everyone always said exactly what hitch said " that's never happened to me". I tripped so hard everything was repeating itself
Am I the only one that finds it weird, the Cod scene is sponsored, and talks about alcohol all the time, like probably the majority of the viewership, and fans are teenagers?
Lmaooo nobody forgets their first dab pen rip, I was at a local LAN when I took mine. Holy moly was I on Jupiter trying to compete in BO4 😂😂😂 (no it did not go well)
Dude. Splyce was Godly in the end of H5. Straight unbridled talent and experience. Wish infinite was a bit more consistent to where the greatest players could win like that
Ant would have ran the HC SND Radar on chall’s in MWR with the M16 and deep impact. If you have never seen it go watch it it’s crazy. All lining up crosshairs and shooting through like 6 buildings😂😂
used to smoke all the time, my girl and i would smoke non stop every day and i never felt terrible, then out of nowhere we smoked and my anxiety was absolutely shot. then every time i smoked after my anxiety spiked so i havent done it in a while, last time i did it wasnt that bad but i still think about those few times i smoked and literally couldnt get my shit together
Dude I know EXACTLY what Ant is talking about with his dabs story. I smoked weed for years without ever having weird feelings or bad thoughts, etc. before hearing about dabs. After trying dabs and Everytime I've smoked since, that's exactly the type of trip I've had and it's so weird and disorienting and kinda makes you get motion sickness. Must be a way out brains are wired and no everyone is the same lol
imagine a videogame relay race. you have 2 teams of 8 people and its like a 4v4 hardpoint. the other 8 players have run the relay and when they reach the set up they switch out with someone and it keeps going like that until a team wins the game.
This feels like the first time Shotzzy has had a real honest open podcast like 1v1 convo where we learned a lot about him personally. This was dope to hear 💯💚
Nope, check out the podcast “how much shotzzy was bought out for 300k” you’ll learn a lot
@@Dougasaur why does this have no upvotes? flycast is lit
I felt the same way I loved it
What’s even more dope is seeing him grown and mature now… having the mentality of a dynasty
@@SOLou04 no idea brotha, but i been dabbling into finding more videos of pros from before they were known
Impossible to dislike Shotzzy. Just a genuine, nice kid who does what he loves & stays true to himself/his family.
very much the only personality in the cdl that’s unapologetically himself. my favorite player (biased) not just for his gameplays and overall knowledge of the game,but.outside of the game and cameras this guy is a personable fun person to chill or just do anything with. keep frying ant
“I closed my eyes and all i see is darkness..”
-shotzzy
Inspirational
😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
So profound
He's ahead of our time.
“Aye yo….can you feed me water”
-Shotzzy.
Shotzzy describing the classic "thought loop" for first time smokers is hilarious lmfaoooo I was tweaking too
I’ve definitely been there 😂 fucken edibles got me
His experience is the same as mine lmfaooooo
Nah 15+ hits is insane 😂😂 especially off a pen when you a beginner
Man it’s days like these that I can’t imagine Hitch anywhere else. Appreciate this man for everything he’s done and given/created for OpTic and the fans! Congrats on the new ring to that boy Antonio Cuevas
We need cuyler on around the bar now to explain his side of the shotzzy high story 😭
Cuyler is a great shout, I'd love to hear his side aswell
Huke is the entire reason I watch the CDL. HUUUUUKE.
Huke is such an anomaly he's so quiet and reserved in any media but in game he's a menace 😂
Bro goes from 😇 to 😈 as soon as he spawns in I swear
You mean illey lmfao
@@Cristian_D63 I agree. Snakebite in Halo is kind of similar in that regard, he's the super composed veteran but in game he's kind of nuts at times.
We clown on this kid for being dumb as rocks sometimes but he is just genuinely so nice and well mannered. Nothing but respect.
Bro tapped the penjamin 15 times and got sent to a different stratosphere lmao
shotzzy just like us frl
😭😭
🤣
My first few highs were insane ,wish i could experience em again 🤣
We thinking about this through the lens on stoners, he did that shit on rookie mode, he must have been high asf
First time I watch this pod and I got to say Hitch, you're a fantastic host.
You let Shottzy speak, never interrupted him and jumped in when applicable. Just subscribed!
@@javiermoralesds The Walshy one was great too if you like Halo history.
shotzzy ego challed the dab pen lol
Omg lmao
Fuckin dead 🤣
47:43 Scump knew he was playing with a young god , he wanted to set Shotzzy up for success rather than himself. Shoutout Scump
Shotzzy was the ONLY pro that could spring jump consistently. He was literally the best. It would be insane if a game developer put in a skill gap like that again
Can’t wait to see this man on demon time with the omnidirectional movement 🤞🏼
Thank you Hitch for bringing a podcast with one of the greatest CoD minds of this era.
This was a dope watch.
Hitch is the best at podcast cause he actually lets his guests talk
this is probably the most casual and professional I think I have seen shotzzy so far this podcast didnt even feel like it was an hour long thats how you know you got a good podcast
Bro is such an inspiration for kids from the 209, gives kids hope here man
He from the valley??
Pretty sure he’s from Modesto right?
Yup. From Modesto
Yesssir he’s from the Mo just like us!
559 baby
Hitch you have truly grown and elevated yourself into a great creator. You asked very well organized and conversational questions. You allowed Shotzzy to open up and feel comfortable. We all have learned more about the MVP then any other Interview!

Shotzzy was talking about “ sangria “ in the beginning for what his mom was drinking not margarita lol
yessir you’re right , im latino and was raised how ant is explaining and my ma and tia made sangria during parties but besides that it was no liquor or smoke
I was thinking of a Michelada. Sangria does not come in beer bottles
@@Hunter78818it definitely does in a “beer” shaped glass bottle but also in a plastic bottle
@@armandobarron6404 that’s the sofa bro
15 dab hits? 😂 no wonder our boy is permafried
I was in that Discord Q&A when he did that. Talked to me and every other person in there on a genuine level. Will always be my favorite player.
Brooooo, the never ending loop is hilarious 😭😭 iykyk
He said can you feed me water 😂😂😂 that whole conversation had me dying I think we can all relate to getting stupid high the first time you got stoned as hell 😂👌
Thank god he didn’t pursue bodybuilding kid was born to touch the controller and that’s it😭😂
Lay off the "kid" talk my man, don't make it weird. Nothing but adults around a bar is all I see.
@@JayCoombs what are you saying…I know he’s not a kid bro lmao it’s just a figure of speech. I been watching THE MAN play since H5 when he was still practically a kid. So how about you lay off your weird take👍
@@azza201 Be better with your words. Calling a grown man "kid" is just weird in every way. Read a book
@@JayCoombs fuck off and be a better troll, how about that?
@@JayCoombsThis while logical is also a weird take. This is something constantly said in COD. Shotzzy has said it about people his own age.

Man this was so awesome to learn more about Ant. As a Halo fan I wish I watched more of his streams. Has always seemed like a great person. Loved it for a while when he started doing vlogs.
The drink I think he’s talking about his mom drinking is Senorial Sangria. For the curious.
It was an absolute honor watching Shotzzy and that Splyce roster in Halo 5!
He talkin about wine coolers my mom was the same lmaooo
Springjumping on H5 was hard af. You had to jump/land in crouch then release crouch while almost simultaneously jumping, it had to be within the same frame. Even though the game ran at 60FPS, it was tough to hit consistently. Shotzzy and Splyce revolutionised H5
Great podcast with brilliant questions, big up
I've never seen a VIDEO of Around The Bar.. Always just the audio. Solid guest for my first watch.
Felt when Ant said “my mom single handily raised us” sometimes bub it’s for the best.
I sat with that guy Shotzzy flew out in the Fanzone all weekend at Champs! Cool dude!
i wish seth would come out of retirement and we would get to see the seth and shotzzy duo during a year where no bs as he puts it happens. its also interesting how seths role changed throughout his career from the top guy to a fill and support role sort of how damon was during optics reign
shotzzy loving his mechs would go crazy learning rocket league in the offseason😂
The drink he was trying to think of that his mom would drink is wine coolers if anyone's curious.
I feel like the conversation of greatest FPS between Formal and Shotzzy will be much like the Lebron vs Jordan debate.
Its been magical being able to watch Shotzzy these past few years but maaaan prime Formal was different like you just had to be there.

That first story just got better and better hahahaha
Whoo Straight edge to 15 Hits Dabbing I love it!!! 🎉🎄 That’s fire I love our superstar ⭐️💚
Shotzzy was thinking of Sangria when he was talking about his mom in the beginning
That or michelada
I said this as he was talking. lol This is accurate
nah he was talking about a wine cooler
Yes wine cooler
I love this man lmaooo, any time I hear a non smoker talk ab their experience, it's hard not to laugh lmao but sum of us have been there our first time...
Man i love this podcast series shits so funny and helps me through my days
Taking multiple hits of a dab pen when you don’t smoke like that is crazy tbh
Shotzzy the champ!! 💚🏆🏆
When it comes to favorite Players. Shotzzy is my favorite for overall talent. He’s funny asf because he is literally just lost all the time 😂 he can follow scumps footsteps and he will be just as successful at Seth
I used to 1v1 shotzzy in H2A when he was like 13 and its really all I have to live for
Shotzzy you seem like such a solid loyal good dude... I don't know you personally. Yeah that's just the vibes I get. 😊 I love it. ❤️
Great podcast ant can hold a interesting conversation and has you listening right off the bat 👍🏼
“Can you feed me water” 😂😂😂
shotzzy is the 21st centruy christopher columbus, the guys the real deal
Bro 15 hits had me dying 😂😂
The experience of Shotzzy being Too High, is the perfect explanation of my “too high”
Shottzy laugh is halarious 😂
This is random but Ant talking about the Spring Jump he could do 100/100 times made me think that he'd be an insane speedrunner in another life probably
And everyone had to use the scoreboard method to get their spring jumps consistent lol meanwhile he's just doing it the geniune skillful way with 100% accuracy lol everyone else would maybe get it 20 percent of the time.
There's nothing wrong with being sober it's just another reason to be proud of Shotzzy
I’ve never watched this podcast but damn what an episode to start! Any other recommended videos to watch?
Shotzzy would go crazy with Halo 2 superbounces
Omg the same shit happens to me when I had gotten high in the past. Everyone always said exactly what hitch said " that's never happened to me". I tripped so hard everything was repeating itself
Very good talk here, good questions but also felt free flowing. Top stuff
Went from sobriety to 15+ hits on a dab pen in one step. Interesting strategy. 😂
How can you not love this guy?
My boy was glitching all over the place lmaoo
15 hits of the dab pen. He hasn't been the same ever since, thankfully 😅
Dope series btw!!!
I'm 5 mins in and this is the best 😅
Am I the only one that finds it weird, the Cod scene is sponsored, and talks about alcohol all the time, like probably the majority of the viewership, and fans are teenagers?
So what lol , there not promoting it at all 😂😂😂😂
@ they are dumbass? Are you delusional?
bro had the rick and morty cart 😭😭
Lmaooo nobody forgets their first dab pen rip, I was at a local LAN when I took mine. Holy moly was I on Jupiter trying to compete in BO4 😂😂😂 (no it did not go well)
Thank god we got this guy on OpTic he’s been sensational in all aspects in and out of game
Hitch that 5k gaming thing would be amazing! Some drones to follow the runners or something and a full on listen in the entire games would be sick
Shotzzy giving me Theo Von story telling Vibes 🤣
Karma the Ring collector himself after EWC would be perfect!
Ok can we all agree shotzzy is the funniest mf to be on the CoD team since Seth😭
Shotzzy was probably thinking Sangria Señorial
"You gotta be in the right state of mind and with the right people"
Bro you sure you weren't on shrooms lmao???
His mom be drinking smirnoff ice😂
The drink Shotzzy was talking about in regard to his mom is probably Sangria
Dude. Splyce was Godly in the end of H5. Straight unbridled talent and experience. Wish infinite was a bit more consistent to where the greatest players could win like that
IM CRYING🤣🤣 no way he feed me water
Ant would have ran the HC SND Radar on chall’s in MWR with the M16 and deep impact. If you have never seen it go watch it it’s crazy. All lining up crosshairs and shooting through like 6 buildings😂😂
I’m a lifetime halo fan, halo 5 was beautiful. They took a step back with infinite
Well he did leak the inner circle 😂😂🎉🎉🎉
First time I smoked I got a bad high… literally called my mom and snitched on myself because I was so scared 🤣🤣🤣 we’ve all been there brother
used to smoke all the time, my girl and i would smoke non stop every day and i never felt terrible, then out of nowhere we smoked and my anxiety was absolutely shot. then every time i smoked after my anxiety spiked so i havent done it in a while, last time i did it wasnt that bad but i still think about those few times i smoked and literally couldnt get my shit together
It’s letting you know it’s time to stop
SHOTTZY GREENED TF OUT 😭😭😭😭😭😭 iykyk 🗣️🗣️🗣️
2:07 he talking bout wine coolers lol
Shotzzy is the best player in the world imo , a true talent
Awesome episode. Shotzzy is such a cool dude
Best podcast yet👌
Dude I know EXACTLY what Ant is talking about with his dabs story. I smoked weed for years without ever having weird feelings or bad thoughts, etc. before hearing about dabs.

Must be a way out brains are wired and no everyone is the same lol
Once you smoke more youll get different experiences.
That hoodie is fire!
The time loop is real bro so real.
I would be wasted if i drank every time Shotzzy said “Like” lol
imagine a videogame relay race. you have 2 teams of 8 people and its like a 4v4 hardpoint. the other 8 players have run the relay and when they reach the set up they switch out with someone and it keeps going like that until a team wins the game.
shotzy hit the dmt cart lmao
Sangria man! Shottzy was trynna say Sangria 😭
Any time stamps soon?
Shotzzy would have been one of those BXR kids in early Halo for sure lol
Iykyk
Shotzzy was talking about wine coolers lol
Bro i had that plenty of times ant your not alone
