Some things just dosen't change in life. Me as a kid watching both Apex and Nadeshot playing CoD. Looking up to them. Me as an adult, soon to be 30 years old now, watching Apex and Nadeshot. Thank you guys, both of you. An inspiration for us back in the days, and an inspiration for kids and adults to come.
Nadeshot was the posterboy for call of duty i hope he realizes what an icon he really is he put COD competitive on the mainstream in the early days and he literally made his dreams come true from dedication passion and the desire to prove his doubters and even competitors that he was good enough to win.
The “I don’t wanna work at McDonald’s anymore” in those early days was my favorite and still is cod esport moment in history. Nadeshot was the first “household known” pro player to other casual players.
@@AstroPopper he was good.. he wasn’t the best in gun skill but he was one of the smartest pros back then especially on objective game modes. He was the Malcolm Brogdon of call of duty 😂
It really is crazy I used to watch scump and nade in 2012 on bo2 when I was 12. and 12 years later those two are still top streamers through all the 100 thieves stuff and scump competing. They really are the goats of this whole thing
Loving these interviews with the OG’s. Same age as yall, grew up watching Nadeshot, FaZe, and OpTic since the start…day 1. It’s so cool to hear the behind the scenes from over the years!
I was literally watching The Around the Bar podcast episode with Nadeshot when I look to my right and see this one was posted 8 minutes ago lol. Instantly clicked on it! Happy to have you back on youtube posting consistently!
I love the direction apex is going. The best podcasts are the ones that people do after their main career I feel like people like that have stories and life experiences that we all wanna hear about
Hey Apex, very long time fan here. I’ve been watching every podcast and I have to say it’s crazy how this is your first time jumping into this genre of content yet you’re crushing it! All the conversations you have are so genuine and I think it stems from the host. I really hope you keep this up because this has quickly turned into one of my favorite shows to listen to.
This podcast was amazing. I have never got to hear matt speak from this mental space. It was refreshing to hear his story and his vision. We played together in a ranked game back in the bo2 days and I lost my shit! Lol. Best of luck out there Matt. You were working at mcdonalds and now own a multi million dollar company! Much love brother
Big respect to nade for giving props to allll the hard-working folks at 100T. He could easily gloat and act like he’s built this company primarily on his own. Instead, he’s incredibly humble and honest. Big W Nade!
Apex if you see this your videos have been amazing the work the interviews are honestly growing and getting better each time! The passion you’re putting into this is like how you were back in the day! Never give this up you are truly amazing! Much love
It's wild that the first time I heard of Nadeshot was before he was on OpTic. He played on this GB team called MoB Deep back in 2010. Crazy looking back to those days.
Back to back bangers okay Apex am starting to get back into your content after years of not watching FaZe but it’s always BrickbyBrick over here but grew up on FaZe too soooo it’s cool to see some good content from y’all now
apex has already becoming so much more comfortable with this long form content. first video was very amateurish and understandably so but hes already learning when and how to questions and when to sit back and let the guest speak
I appreciate that nadeshot shot for the moon and realized he wasn’t cut out for the business aspect and openly admits it. Brother we just want to play games and have a good time lol
How Nadeshot got an Xbox on his birthday from his mom makes a man cry... I wish he would have explained it to the people who don't know he was crying while explaining it, and then I started crying, and then the video ended.
Funny story I met nadeshot at PaxEast 2012/3(not sure which year) , I asked him in passing, you think I'll be able to join optic he said "i dont know maybe" , then i asked him"what about faze" he said "probably actually" and laughed Ts gave me so much inspo for uploading
First off, great video apex as usual. But I genuinely feel bad, to this day, about the way nadeshot was treated in the optic days, where he was the scapegoat etc. And I feel like a big part of it was the fans, and the optic guys are only human, and humans are pretty easily influenced and convinced, especially at that age, by all the hate comments toward nade, I can only assume. And even if nade really wasn't the problem, if all the fans are saying its his fault, it's going to slowly creep into the players beliefs as well. Because nadeshot was a truly great cod player. I did a lot of gbs, and the team I was on even won the entire squad ladder one year and I got a trophy from it, so I was a pretty above average cod player, and I matched up against optic in a league play match in cod ghosts, and nadeshot fuckin fried me lol. He truly was a great player. And to this day, that whole situation rubs me the wrong way. Win as a team, lose as a team. And I remember watching multiple multiple games where he was top fragger, or clutched up and they won solely because of him. But anyways, it's in the past I suppose, love nadeshot, and keep dropping these bangers apex.
Some things just dosen't change in life.

Thank you guys, both of you.
An inspiration for us back in the days, and an inspiration for kids and adults to come.
thank you for being so articulate in describing that. you really did it justice just how much this all means to us ❤
“Dosen’t” when it’s spelled wrong and should be “don’t” is too funny
@@davesnow6453 This!
Apex I know it would be impossible but we need Jev on here
Bro yessss pls
No we don’t
lol nah
If anything BigT not jev
Why is it impossible
Nadeshot was the posterboy for call of duty i hope he realizes what an icon he really is he put COD competitive on the mainstream in the early days and he literally made his dreams come true from dedication passion and the desire to prove his doubters and even competitors that he was good enough to win.
Apex on a generational run
Once again 🫡💯
The “I don’t wanna work at McDonald’s anymore” in those early days was my favorite and still is cod esport moment in history. Nadeshot was the first “household known” pro player to other casual players.
bro was never good
facts man. literally mount Rushmore of gaming, no questions asked
@@AstroPopperread his comment again and let us know where are we discussing that smh
do you want to own a mcdonalds with us :) would you like to join m team of the gorillas
@@AstroPopper he was good.. he wasn’t the best in gun skill but he was one of the smartest pros back then especially on objective game modes. He was the Malcolm Brogdon of call of duty 😂
The best podcast. Just real OG’s and great conversations. Glad you are doing then apex. Ma Shaa Allah

Loving the Apex grind this past couple months, happy to have you back Apex! This is what pushing 30 is all about ❤️
About an hour in, the bouncing off of each others emotions on their friends and the industry that they grew up in was so heart warming, legit 🖤
Big respect to nade for giving props to allll the hard-working folks at 100T. He could easily gloat and act like he’s built this company primarily on his own. Instead, he’s incredibly humble and honest. Big W Nade!
Incredible listen. This guy deserves everything he has!

Re-watched Nadeshot’s appearance on Swagg’s podcast literally yesterday! Onto this one now today! Perfect coincidence
It's wild that the first time I heard of Nadeshot was before he was on OpTic. He played on this GB team called MoB Deep back in 2010. Crazy looking back to those days.
