Hasan Piker | This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von #567

I want to say thank you for the support of our merch.
Really, really appreciate it.
And we have restocks.
Those are in now.
We've got Gang Gang, Bait and Tackle.
I'm upstairs.
A lot of items are restocked.
You can check that out, TheoVonStore.com.
And again, thank you so much.
Today's guest is one of the most popular streamers.
He's a leftist political commentator.
You can see countless clips of him.
Debating social issues and political topics.
I admire his work ethic and his pursuit of information and communication.
I am thankful today for his time and our conversation.
Today's guest is Mr. Hassan Piker.
It feels like I made so many requests where I'm like, oh my god, I need to have
my dog here.
All this shit.
No, dude.
I'm just going to style it.
You're like probably...
Yeah, is that...
This is just...
The top is just some...
I mean, both are Japanese, I think, actually.
Oh, yeah.
That's what it is.
Yeah.
It's a Japanese brand called Color with a K.
And the Pantser Adidas Y3, Yoji Yamamoto collab.
Damn.
You don't fuck with fashion at all.
I mean, I...
Yeah, I don't...
I mean, you got a look, though.
I mean, I don't like to have a lot of...
Should we save this for the pod?
That's normal.
Oh, we're rolling?
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
All right.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
My bad.
That's why I didn't have it on the...
That's why I didn't have it in my mouth.
Because I thought we weren't filming yet.
Um, yeah, dude, that is style.
That's...
Yeah, I mean, yeah, it's definitely very stylish.
My good friend Aaron, he started a company called, um, John Elliott.
I feel like I've heard of that.
Yeah.
They have him, like, now in, like, in Nordstrom.
And it's like a...
They have, like, it over, like...
I think it was, like, right after, like, G-Star kind of came out.
Like, G...
I tried...
I got into some G-Star for a little bit.
Oh, you got some G-Star?
That was, like, as, like...
Let me see what we're doing.
Kind of as I got...
I would like to have more fashion sometimes.
I just don't know if I can...
I don't care.
Well, you got to look.
I get too overwhelmed.
I like knowing, like, there's about 17 or 18 things that I wear that'll be okay.
Bro, you got to look.
You can't be saying, um, I need to get into fashion.
And you're making a deliberate choice to not have a mustache and grow a beard
out.
Oh, you think so?
I feel like that's...
That's a look.
Maybe that...
I never thought about that.
Yeah, I guess it's like a...
Yeah, you got the flannel.
It's that little, like, a sock for your chin, kind of, I guess.
Yeah.
That's brave, by the way.
I just got to say.
To do just this?
Yeah.
I think it's brave.
But do you think that's a culture or thing?
What culture is your family from?
I'm Turkish.
Okay.
So, in Turkey, is that a thing?
Do you see just this ever in Turkey?
Sometimes.
I mean, we don't got Amish people.
Normally, the only time you see the beard and the no mustache combo is if they
just go with
the full one.
Oh, yeah.
And it's just like, I don't know why they do that.
Yeah, I saw a guy with a huge beard the other night at a comedy show.
I think it was in Ohio.
He had a huge beard.
And then an Edgar, that kind of Mexican kind of Edgar cut in the front.
I love that.
Oh, it was great.
This guy was ginger.
I mean, probably Amish or recently Amish, once removed or whatever.
And he had had, like.
How did that work?
I mean, you could tell somebody in his, somebody had fucking, he probably had
nails in his pocket.
You know what I'm saying?
He definitely, somebody had, somebody, I don't know, man.
But, no, you're probably the most styled.
I'm trying to think of somebody else more stylish that's come in here.
Oh, here's some facial hair types right here.
This is very important.
Bro, this is like that, that Russian ethnicities photo grid.
You know what I'm talking about?
Uh-uh.
Like in the USSR.
This is crazy.
This does look like.
Yeah, they're like, they're showing us the different kinds of Armenians.
It does look like 40 degrees of Uber.
That's what it looks like.
Yeah, see?
Look, that's what I'm talking.
Oh, I thought this was one of those terror watch fucking charts, dude.
No, no, no.
This is like, look at, look at all the different ethnicities in the U.S.
USSR.
It's to, it's to, it's to be better at racism.
Well, that's what I, dude.
Racism used to be so easy in America.
Like when I was growing up, it was like easy, easy to do, easy to be racist.
Now, I've been to these, it's almost like you have to have a chart.
You have to have a calculator to even be racist now, it feels like.
Yeah, I hate that.
God damn it.
Racism used to be so easy.
Yeah.
What happened to the good old days?
You could just point out the window and your stepdad just knew immediately what
was going on.
Yeah.
Um, I, I think it's just, it's just, uh, extra difficulty now.
That's what it is.
So you have to be smarter as a racist.
There's a barrier to interest.
Racist better.
Yeah.
Yeah, dude, because, oh, you said there's like a barrier to entry now.
Yeah.
There's a, there's a barrier entry to doing racism.
Like it's like, uh, it's, it's unironically a more difficult process now.
Um, but what I was going to say is, uh, if you want to go back to the, to the
facial hair chart,
bring it up again, please.
Cause I want to know what, what we're doing.
Or was it yours?
The other one?
No, no.
That was the, that was just a USSR races, uh, USSR race chart.
But, um, yeah, you can also get that USSR chart is easily.
A lot of those men, you'll see a meeting with very young girls at Starbucks
trying to get
them involved in something.
A lot of times it seems like, but what is this one?
What do you got?
You got the chin curtain?
No, you got the goatee.
That's what you have.
Yeah.
I guess I have the goatee.
It's very simple.
Kind of.
It's like, I have a big nose.
So I try to match, you know, you do little things to try and.
You know, trick a wife or what it trick, uh, you know, you want to have a
spouse.
So I have that.
And then I have a little bit more chin than my brother does.
So I have a real chin in here.
Some people it's, it's completely, it's a total mirage.
Like there's a guy that's in that power slap game and they can't even like, he
has this
huge, they can't identify where his chin begins.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I love that.
Especially when like dudes have that situation going on and then they'll just
like grow
out their beard and basically try to like line it up so that there's like a
chin there.
And it's like, bro, you are not fooling anybody.
Yeah.
And I don't even know what to do in that situation.
Like if you got that, if you got that no neck edge shit, then you're kind of
cooked regardless.
Yeah.
But I mean, good luck.
I don't know.
There is the one where it's crazy where sometimes, yeah, they, they cut the
hair exactly.
Yeah.
Oh, that's no neck edge.
Yeah.
He's doing real estate now too.
Yeah.
He was doing lemonade sale.
He was in like a, he got caught up in big lemon or not big lemonade, but like
lemonade,
big lemonade.
He was, I know he's, he got, I think he was involved with lemonade for a bit.
I saw him selling a, he was involved with like a, like a child.
Like what do you mean?
No, like he was selling, he got caught up, Ed and Pete's, there it is,
something like
that, or lemonade.
Oh, he like actually had his lemonade brand.
Yeah.
He was selling, it was like a, it was the opposite of, you know, they have like
a long neck bottle.
That was the whole play on it.
Oh, oh, that's weird.
I know.
That's such an odd thing that he was, so he made like, like a short and stubby
one.
Yeah.
Who wants that baby lemonade out of Ed?
Oh, he's definitely looked like the kind of guy that you would just, that you
want to
fucking crack open.
He looks like that fancy syrup.
You ever see the fancy bottle of syrup, but it doesn't have, bring it up if you
can.
It's kind of light brown.
It has a brown top on it.
It's maple syrup, but it's wide.
Oh, like the, like the maple version like that?
Yeah.
The 365, the Whole Foods, that matte finish one.
Yeah.
The one that looks like a liquor bottle.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It looked like an old brown jug.
That one.
Yeah.
I always, he kind of had that.
Anyway, I feel bad.
We're making fun of the guy now.
Yeah.
He wasn't, I don't know.
I remember watching 90 Day Fiance, and he didn't seem like a good dude.
Oh, really?
He didn't seem, he didn't strike me as like a very nice guy, but I mean, who
knows?
Oh, I'll jump on a hate wagon in a heartbeat, dude.
Oh, I know.
Fuck head, bro.
Yeah.
No, but I saw the other day he was doing real estate, man.
Hassan Piker, thanks for coming in, dude.
Yeah.
I appreciate it.
Thanks for having me.
I know you're super busy, man.
I admire, first of all, how streamers, how the effort it is.
It almost seems like it's like one of those races in the Olympics that it's
like an endurance
game, but also just like your openness to like thinking about things.
You don't seem like just like one type of person or like you could pigeonhole
you.
Yeah, I do.
I do a little bit of everything.
I mean, but even just seeing your own beliefs, like in, you know, and when you
talk about
political stuff, it's like you seem very poignant, but also like aggressively
open to things,
you know, which I think, and that's a judgment and maybe I shouldn't have said
something like
that.
But anyway, I just admire the way that you do things, dude.
So I appreciate you coming and hanging out.
That's all I should have said.
Thanks for, thanks for having me.
I think streamers are basically like the bottom of the totem pole as far as
content creators
goes.
Like it's definitely laborious, but I wouldn't say that it's like super
difficult because
like overall a Hollywood production, if it's, if that is like the highest stage
of like content
and creation and you have, you know, hundreds of people working all around the
world, working
around the clock to put like two and a half hours of content together where
everyone's
going to sit there and watch, uh, Twitch streaming is like the lowest of the
low where it's just
like a dude like me half the time, you know, picking at his crotch, watching
YouTube videos,
picking his nose.
And it's, you know, it's, you have to be on for eight hours at a time.
And it's like usually one person doing that and that's annoying.
And you've got to be like constantly listening to people chirp at you.
Um, and that part sucks, but overall I would say it's like the, you know,
lowest tier of
content, lowest effort of content.
Would you say that it's the purest of content though, in a weird way?
Like, because it's, I mean, what I do is hide.
Yeah.
What I do is AM radio, but, um, what I do is, is basically AM radio, but for
zoomers,
you know, I like, that's how the way I describe myself, like, you know, like, I'm
sure, you
know, Rush Limbaugh.
Yeah.
Um, like that's, that's the way that I describe what I do, uh, to older people
in general where
like, I'm like Rush Limbaugh, but without the brain, uh, without the brain rot,
quite literally
and figuratively.
I mean, he did die of brain cancer.
Did he?
He had addiction.
I know.
Yeah.
He also had a, yeah, he had a hole, I think in his brain from all the perks.
He was perked up.
He was a perked up shouty.
Well, he was definitely, my body, my body.
Yeah.
I think he definitely was one of the early, um, he was almost like a rapper in
a way, like
with the pills.
I think he had the women bring up Rush Limbaugh's wife.
Let's even get a, no, I don't, I don't know.
I feel like those guys don't fuck.
I don't know why, like, unless they're, unless they're gay, the, the gay
conservatives, like
the, the ones in the closet, like they fuck.
Okay.
Nevermind.
She's kind of, she's kind of a looker, huh?
I mean, she's better looking than him.
I mean, that's not saying much.
That's true, but still I've seen, yeah, sometimes you get a, uh, yeah, she has
a very, who does
she look like a little bit?
I've never seen his wife or some of those widow cats.
She kind of looks like in that photo where they're
