    The Road to Fame: A Chaotic Experiment

    What does it really take to get famous? In this 8-part series, I set out to answer that question by trying everything possible—from launching fireworks to social experiments and even (accidentally) getting kidnapped. It’s been a wild ride, and now you can relive every crazy moment from start to finish.

    Episode Breakdown

    Episode 1: The Struggle is Real

    I start my journey frustrated and confused. With over 90 videos and not nearly enough subscribers, I ask my friend Alex for help. His advice? Try anything and everything to get attention. Let’s just say… things got out of hand quickly.

    Episode 2: The List of Fame

    Alex presents a 17-step plan to get famous, and I realize that some of his ideas are questionable at best. From dodging fireworks to bizarre publicity stunts, this is where the madness begins.

    Episode 3: Stand-Up Comedy Gone Wrong

    Thinking I could be a comedian, I test my best jokes on Alex. Turns out, I’m no Kevin Hart. The crowd (aka Alex) was NOT impressed. Back to the drawing board!

    Episode 4: Business Cards & Shameless Self-Promotion

    Since comedy wasn’t working, we printed business cards to promote my channel. We hit the streets, passing them out to strangers, stuffing them in mailboxes, and trying to force the world to notice me. Results? Mixed, to say the least.

    Episode 5: Fireworks, Chaos, and Regret

    Alex decided that almost setting me on fire was the next big idea. I barely survived this one. Do NOT try this at home.

    Episode 6: TikTok Fame & Firework Insanity

    Desperate for more attention, Alex insisted we launch more fireworks—this time for TikTok. Let’s just say it ended in running, screaming, and near disaster. Worth it? Debatable.

    Episode 7: Paying for Subscribers (And Getting Kidnapped?!)

    I got so desperate that I started paying people to subscribe to my channel. Things took a DARK turn when I was suddenly kidnapped. (Yes, for real.)

    Episode 8: The Aftermath & The Next Big Idea

    After escaping (don’t ask how), I realized that fame might not be worth dying for. But I wasn’t giving up yet. My next idea? A viral spicy wing challenge with Alex. Because, apparently, pain equals views.

    Final Thoughts: What Did I Learn?

    After all the madness, one thing is clear: getting famous is NOT easy. It takes strategy, luck, and a bit of insanity. While I may not be viral (yet), this series was proof that I’m willing to do whatever it takes to make it big.

    Would I do it all again? Probably. Stay tuned for the next wild experiment. Until then, stay positive, stay subscribed, and never stop chasing your dreams!

    A Day in the Life: My Night Shift at FedEx


    Hey everyone! In today’s video, I’m taking you along for a typical night shift as a truck driver at FedEx. I know my life might seem all about creating YouTube videos, but when the camera’s off, I’m out here hustling through the night!

    Night Shift Vibes: The Reality of Working Nights

    It’s currently 9:39 p.m., and the FedEx lot is buzzing with unit drivers moving trailers around. My run doesn’t start until 10:30, but I always get here early. Working nights is a different kind of grind—it’s not something I’d recommend unless you have to. Honestly, I’m only doing this until I can make it on YouTube.

    The Grind Never Stops

    Most of my shifts start with a lot of waiting. I usually sit in my car, sometimes charging it at a free electric charger lot. I try to go to the gym, but today I didn’t make it. Instead, I had a pretty unhealthy day, eating Taco Bell, ice cream, and more. Diet fail, for sure.

    When it’s finally time to go, I check my logbook, connect the trailer, and make sure everything is safe and secure. I drove all the way to Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and back to Chicago—over 300 miles with just a couple of hours left on my driving clock.

    The Double Life: Truck Driver & YouTuber

    The truth is, living this double life isn’t easy. By day, I’m filming, editing, and coming up with new video ideas. By night, I’m driving trucks and trying to keep my sanity. I’m always tired, and sometimes the FedEx lot is so packed, I can barely move the truck. It’s a lot, but I know I have to keep pushing.

    Keeping the Dream Alive

    Every night, as I park my truck and get ready for bed, I remind myself why I’m doing this. I want to build a better life, and YouTube is my ticket. It’s hard, but every video, every mile, every sleepless night brings me one step closer.

  • Why I Drive for FedEx

    Why I Drive for FedEx

    Hey everyone! In today’s video, I’m bringing you along with me to work so you can find out what I do when I’m not making “horrible YouTube videos that get no views.” 😂 Spoiler: I’m a truck driver for FedEx!

    The Night Shift Life

    One of the toughest parts of my job is working nights. I’m on a rotating schedule, which means I get a call every day at 4 p.m. to find out when my shift starts. It could be 6 p.m., 8 p.m., 9 p.m., or even 10 p.m., and I just have to roll with it. It makes having a normal routine pretty tough, but hey, gotta make that money!

    A Day (or Night) in the Life

    After getting the call, I head out to the truck and go through my pre-trip routine. I log into my electronic logbook, check the truck, and wait for the air to pump into the transmission (a fancy way of saying I wait until it’s safe to drive). My run started at 10:30 p.m., but I got called in early, which was great!

    Today’s trip was to Cedar Rapids, Iowa—about 3 hours and 20 minutes each way. I even got to take two double-loaded trailers back, which doesn’t happen often. It was a long night, but I made it back to Chicago safe and sound around 5:47 a.m. Tired as heck, but it was finally time for bed.

    Why I Stick With It

    Driving for FedEx isn’t always easy, but it gives me the freedom to pursue my YouTube dreams during the day. Balancing both can be rough, but I’m still grinding, still pushing, and still chasing that goal of making it big on YouTube.

    Check out the full video where I take you along for the ride:
