MTV got desperate once they realized Rob Dyrdek was the biggest thing on their network. They gave him so much power and control that he was able to use them for hundreds of millions of dollars.

So much nostalgia, I love making these videos it feels like I am time traveling lol.
Pat please I’m begging you to do a G59 video please
love these videos from you 🔥 brings back memories from my childhood lol
Hope this video blows up like the last one!!! GL
Keep it up hella entertaining man!
dawg you needa bless us wit a vid on xxxtentacion...
He capitalized on MTV's laziness, complacency, incompetence and desperation to catapult himself and get in, get out free n' clear. RESPECT.
Well put and awesome for him too!!!
Sums it all up very well. MTV is the titanic that everyone knows is sinking at this point. Once Dyrdek is done, it’s lights out for the network.
thats all MTV is based around ridiculousness everyday thats all i watched on MTV if it wasnt that it was cartoon network
@@DreamLooneyIcey And all THEY show is Teen Titans Go! Maybe the downfall of CN will be the next video!
@@colleen4ever haven’t watched it since they had good shows so idk 🤷🏻♂️
R.I.P Big Black. If y’all never watched Rob and Big y’all should really peep that show
Lil peep
dude that show was so fun i remember that !!!
Doesn’t hit the same now knowing they weren’t really cool like that
I had the Spider-Man/turtle race episode on my ipod video when that first came out 😂😂
That was and still is one of my all-time favorite shows.
Wow, this guy is a great example of someone who is ambitious, observant, hardworking, multi-talented and intelligent. He really built himself from the ground up.
He blood sacrificed Big Black
@@redrunner3536 Big Black was out of shape, surprised he survived that long

Dyrdek is unquestionably an absolute business genius. It's mind-boggling how smart he was/is. More power to him, I say! RIP forever, Big.

@@redrunner3536.... what? Haha
Usually it's the other way around with networks abusing artists but I'm glad Rob flipped the reverse Uno card on MTV
Considering MTV is worse than its ever been I don't see why. Used to bea great network in the 90s
@@JM-mr6pz the 90s business model they had could not have sustained in the 00’s and 10’s
@@JM-mr6pz nostalgia is a great drug.
It’s music and celebrity based content from the 90s isn’t sustainable in the age of KZhead, Instagram and Tick Tock. Heck, it was dying in the 2000s.
right he was smart he and his co host were all paid too
When he said on MTV that he was an entrepreneur, I didn't know he was THIS big. Dude literally took the world by storm, while making bank. Respect to Rob and RIP to Big Black.
A lot of people on social media call themselves "serial-entrepreneurs" but Rob really is one!
@Qui Gon Jinn MTV had been ruined long before he came along.
@Qui Gon Jinn I guess it is subjective. Out of those 3, I only liked Pimp My Ride. I grew up in NY and knew too many real life Juiced head Guidos to find Jersey Shore entertaining. It just gave them validation. Thankfully that show is in the past.
@Qui Gon Jinn 🤣🤣🤣 yea MTV sank when they started playing more drama instead of music
@@josemendez-fd5qz literally, seems to me rob helped with his funny shows
Years ago I started calling MTV, Rob Dyrdek TV. I didn't even realize just how right I was until now. Sad that MTV got so far away from its roots the company became lost and begged Rob become their life raft. Knowing Rob makes royalties off his episodes it's safe to say that he will make an absurd amount of money for life or until MTV finally breathes its last breath. I wouldn't be suprised the last show ever aired on the channel will be Rediculousness, which is just rediculous.
It’s ridiculousness. With an I.
They should revive all their old shows from late 90s to mid 2000s
I feel like MTV screwed themselves when they allowed 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom to take over their whole network. Anything Rob Dyrdek made that aired on MTV is what kept the network alive in my opinion.
A beautiful thing to hear how he took advantage of MTV, considering the fact that they’ve done it to so many others… Love it!
kzhead.info/sun/Y6Z8fLSZa3quiKs/bejne.html
This is honestly pretty inspiring. Dude really built himself an empire from the ground up, by working his ass off.
More like ripping off tosh.0 and making shitty content
As it should be.
@@_V.Va_ ya it should be but that’s not how it works in most cases
For sure! But don't forget your environment plays a role too. He had the opportunity to skate a lot. He saw his buddies starting businesses, he probably had their support in doing it himself (not money but you know having someone to ask stuff helps!). He capitalized on his opportunities though! Like a true entrepreneur.
@@CasD1806 yep life is all Bout opportunities and hard work my mentor says.
Holy shit! Never realized he was so business savvy. #RIPBigBlack
Shoulda watched fantasy factory lol that's around the time he started being that way

Man man man, I got to give it to Rob he didn't just played the game he took it over.
hes greedy thats why didnt care about skating only wanted control.. see theres only one man that didnt want anypart of this stuff the father of all tricks and skateboarding Rodney Mullen the only one imo that never turned his passions into a marketing gig..
@@jerrypatterson55 What about Tensor Trucks?
@@jerrypatterson55 no kidding rob seems like a fucking tool
@@blargblarg-jargon9607 yea he is taking over completely something a narcissistic tool i mean when is enough money enough and control enough
@@jerrypatterson55 love or hate him, Rob knew what he wanted and busted his ass to get it. He is a prime example of an average American who made it big by working hard.
I am seriously impressed how Rob made himself such a success with his work ethic, smarts, and initiative to be the guy that made things happen. Truly inspiring.
Wow, I think I have a new found respect for Rob Dyrdek. I just kinda brushed him off back in the day, but to know he was cutting deals and making serious bank while on MTV is insane. Props to him.
Dude is a genius! And being hilarious is just a plus!
Never liked him, but gotta respect the hustle. I still like Tosh better tho...
He also runs the street league competitions for skateboarding which are the main way big skaters make bank. also gave back to the community that tried to push him out originally.
Are you shocked in some way? I’m confused how you could not know he’s making massive bank.
Yeah if u watched rob n big he was a douche for cutting the pay roll on the show so big black got fucked cause he want making any royalties
What’s most mind boggling is how incompetent, uncreative, and trashy MTV became. They literally had one job. Music.
Here’s the thing: MTV is more profitable now than when they were in the TRL days. While many people want them to bring back music videos, showing music videos costs a ton of money and lacked any real financial growth. It’s also was dependent on the fact that KZhead made consumers stop watching trl for the music videos so they had to adapt
@@TravisHouze people dont even avidly consume music videos when given the chance.
LMAO MUSIC TV YOU RIGHT!
idiotic comment.mtv hasnt been known for music for decades and it was def not their peak it's a shit business especially now in 2022

As a Daytonian, we appreciate his contribution of the skate park. He’s a legend around here.
I was so close to skating Dayton high school and my friend's car broke down outside town on the detour on route back to Michigan from Pittsburgh, think around 97. Moved south shortly after always wanted to drive through on drives up later years and check it out during visits just because I was so hyped on the spot from workshop videos. Never worked out though was too road weary drive out of way by myself and I would of rather not went for session alone, Dayton was no joke at the time. That was so long ago. does it still exist? I imagine like a lot of shit in the Midwest it closed and the earth began to reclaim it lol. Going to Michigan for a funeral in June I'd definitely make a pilgrimage I plan on spending a good deal taking my time driving this time for mental health and because I'm now that guy that enjoys the journey and shows up late haha. (Wouldn't change it love making memories)
Bottom line. Rod Dyrdek is a F@CKING Genius. And… he left High School in 11th grade and never looked back. One huge reason Rob stayed on top of his game for like 2 + decades is the fact that he NEVER gave into the demons. Rob never turn to drugs, his success was his high. Rob Dyredek I admire your strength.
Also luck is on his side

True definition of “make the money, don’t let the money make you.” He bossed up and took control . Love to see it RIP Big Black.. i remember when i found out i was sad as shit smh.
Hell... I just found out now through you. 😳 I clearly have not been keeping up with the times. 😅
100% agreed Quiss, I still wish we could have more Rob and BB moments. They were hilariously contagious; the kind of duo that would help the racism issue we got going on while also being that go-to duo to cheer you up.
Bb’s the real star in this story, Rest In Peace. Rob Is a legit businessman though.. holy shit, I respect the grind.
Wow. Rob Dyrdek is an actual genius and a giving back rich guy. He’s done monumental for the skating community and out so many people on all while making his own enterprise insanely rich. What bad can you say about him? He’s awesome
I'm surprised people are surprised Rob is such a good businessman. He helped all of his entourage get decent careers going in music, fashion, being a talent agent etc. Most of those people probably had no chance at doing so without him. He acts like a clown for entertainment purposes but he always knew what he was doing.
Just watching his interviews is amazing. You kind of see how his mind works, and good God he thinks decades ahead, and that's the game. If you can think about that your whole life, you're good. Makes you wonder about his parents, they've gotta be very smart people and every time you see his dad, he's just happy. Rob knows who he is, what's he's worth, what he can add to the world and the company, and his own worth. He's an idol I swear.
I believe he even got chanel westcoast signed to young money entertainment (Lil Waynes label)

Rob is a business genius, but he’s also a genuine and caring individual. He deserves everything he has. Rob & Big and Fantasy Factory are two of the best shows of the early 2000s
didnt he screww over big many times
@@Stoney-Jacksman😢
Rob Dyrdek's business smarts and entrepreneurial ambition is truly remarkable. Great episode, props Patrick.
MTV became Rob’s personal KZhead channel lol, nothing but respect for this entrepreneur 🔥👌🏻
Rob is def smart & funny. I like when he'd mess with his parents. But MTV is just trash. It's the poster child of corporate trash.
Stop! I'm dead 😂😂😂😂
lov your comment. it's about time somebody besides the Jersey gang had any control over this lame network
Repent to Jesus Christ “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9 NIV Y
@Nedd Flanders Are verified channels not allowed to write comments?
Rob perfected what Bam did. Rob is really a mastermind entrepreneur and he did it all on his own. Never stopped working and it payed off wonderfully. Truly an inspiration.
This is true, but Bam has always had his parents handle his finances his whole life and well his addictions didn’t help. But seems Rob had his priorities straight at all times. I’m just amazed tbh.
@@babycakesface27 Exactly Rob did everything bam should had done but better. He kept everything strictly business and still managed to still focus on skating while keeping a good image for the kids and teens. Bam could had been bigger today if he kept that mentality
He is pretty much Bam’s predecessor. Only he did it right. Bam was clever but was a complete idiot. Rob probably played an idiot for tv meanwhile he was an entrepreneurial genius.
Yeah his business sense is legendary. He transitioned smoothly into the next stage of his life instead of staying in the past.
Don't compare rob to that closeted gay jerk
Basically Rob is the guy who wouldn’t let MTV die. You should do an episode on how MTV even got to that point
The fact that he basically helped two companies to become more popular and did it all himself too says a lot of things about his character. He really helped mtv.
I was coming into this expecting some story about a sleazy jerk who screwed over everyone and does some truly awful things. I'm actually pretty happy I got the opposite. Dude's business savvy and I can respect that, seems like a decently hard worker too. I also respect anyone that knows when its time to drop the "bad boy" image and duck out of the limelight to be with your family and focus on other businesses. Great video.
@@HOP805 Um, no not at all? I don't know what would lead you to believe that.
@@HOP805 There is no sound in reading somebodies message online you fucktwit.
Me too really 😂
"decently hard worker" 😂
- glad he didnt use his friends back then or anybody for him to reach success (not including Big Black, they basically co-workers that turned in to friends and make money together). it sucks but u have to make sacrifices for your own survival such as leaving some people behind because they dont have the same mindset and vision as u. - that "bad boy" image wasnt a front, it was just an image but he never let that image took over him and his values. that image was merely a character for the audience's entertainment purposes. just like almost every show who's got these characters to make the storyline somewhat interesting. - he's an entrepreneur, businessman, entertainer, skateboarder, stuntman, father he did everything right in his career. indeed a great video, Patrick
He’s the one that saved MTV. Without his Fantasy Factory and Ridiculousness, mtv would of been gone today
lol. better gone than this.
Lol no
MTV still exist?
Them shows was whack asf
Rob Dyrdek is a legend, even looking at him at my bad periods he slightly showed me about what life can be. You can see on the way he behaves he went through big things in his life and that he honours everything what happens in his life and is thankful for it.
Rob, Big Black, Drama, and the rest of the crew will always have a place in my heart. Thank you for an amazing childhood.
Oh I loveedddddddddddd the rob Dyrdek series of shows basically lol. It was a good time in life. With jackass crews and all sorts.
Rob and big black ended up hating each other. RIP big black
big cat !!
I didn’t get the chance but wish I did
@@paintpaintpaintco.6039 They ended up making up and that's when BB was on fantasy factory
This guy is a marketing genius and deserves EVERYTHING he has. Regardless of how pompous people THOUGHT he was. It worked!
he is literally selling citrine crystals now and saying they will bring you wealth, dude has fell so far since
otherwise known as a total sellout hack.
I mean no one deserves to be a billionaire when people be starving lmao.
Couple years back he sold burritos specifically made for stoners.Don't know if it was a joke or not but he's always been a sellout.It's not a bad thing tho he's richer than anyone of us because of it.
@@Swagtildawn shit take
I used to work for a commercial internet company years back. I removed the internet from the fantasy factory. It was really weird and sad to walk around the place. It was gutted and all that was left was the giant skateboard they made in the middle of the floor.
Not only is he a dedicated skater and a successful entrepreneur, he also completely ruined MTV, which is a valuable public service.
MTV used to be really good. Especially when they played music videos
This was so inspiring. I've always loved Rob but I would have never known how much work he was actually doing behind the scenes at MTV. He is the definition of being motivated
I remember growing up watching Rob on tv for years and my friends and I would joke how he basically runs MTV. Come to find out we actually right like holy shit Rob wasn't playing games LMFAOOOOO
He was hypnotized for success. That's why he has everything he has...
I never really cared for any of Robs shows and was lowkey really confused why they were always on. But now I can honestly say he's a BOSS. Respect
Same hated these shows but nothing but respect to this man's hustle
@TaZeR Ridiculousness is if you took a less funny Daniel Tosh, less interesting videos and added boring guests. But its easily consumable for the masses. He wasn't going for comedy gold, he knew what he was doing.
@TaZeR isn’t it sad that people like that exist??
Same. My conservative dad would watch this show quite often, which I found odd, but it was pretty easy to waste 20-30 minutes watching it with him when I visited.
@@ShaithMaster people keep bringing Daniel Tosh name up with robs as if his show is really that much more entertaining. It’s not. There shows are the same. Even got the same clips. And half the time you already saw the clips off tik tok or KZhead lol!! I mean both of them. Take the most viewed clips and air them. A twitch streamer could be a host for funny home videos Half of them are when every time they spectate. Or watch clips. Also when people say they love robs shows. We talking about fantasy factory or rob and big black. I don’t think anyone would ever be like out of all robs shows I love ridiculousness . Like what? You think that when people say I love robs shows they are referring to him standing and talking about a clip over a show where he’s racing monster trucks, joining rock bands, getting run down by tigers, driving a car backgrounds off a ramp or driving cars straight off cliffs? Lol people are talking about fantasy factory. If they’re not they are either too young or straight up never watched it. Shows like ridiculousness or funniest home videos are shows for people in there 50s who don’t have social media or 14 years olds who can’t leave the house or are up late at night. But as you can see I think the arguement for funniest home videos show or best is dumb. They are the same I’ve watched both. They have different energy but same content and take away. I’d rather watch videos on my phone and listen to my own commentation and as live tv is kinda dying due to stream services I think it’s safe to say there’s alot of people who think that
if Rob isn't behind it, it just ain't the same... it's all about his energy that he brings to the table and you have done a fabulous breakdown, you have the voice, very smooth, keep going!
He never got mixed with drugs or a bad crowd, never over drank, never became a private alcoholic (that we know of). He is set for life.
Rob Dyrdek is the sole person I looked up to as a kid. He's one of the most influential businessman in our generation & his legacy will live forever.
And he really did it himself. Sometimes you hear about self made millionaires that turn out to have rich parents but Rob literally made it all himself and put himself in a position of power in a powerful company. It's the lost inspirational shit I have ever seen. Good for him, dude.
Was our Mr beast
yikes
Like 50 cent! "Money by Monday" No I'm jokin pls don't hurt me
Let me guess. Due to you looking up to Rob as a child, now that you are an adult you are a broke multi millionaire?
Big black was really such a huge part of so many peoples lives. Look at these comments man. I have rarely been as gutted from hearing of a celebrity death as I was hearing of Black’s. He was truly just such a warm funny guy with a personality even bigger than he was. RIP Big Black.
Yeah well he and Rob Dyrdek hated each other off camera. At least that's what I heard. I am more inclined to side with him on that one than Rob though. Rob is probably an incredibly difficult person to work for.
Is he dead? is he really dead? 😐
Rob has a KZhead channel if y’all wanna sub to it. He mainly just does podcasts talking about different things. He does have some pretty great business opinions.
@@voteZDLR I doubt they hated each other and it hadn’t always been like that. No way they could’ve hated each other for so long and made such good episodes. It was probably when Rob started fantasy factory. They did get closer when before he passed though. I was a fan of rob no doubt. But big black was the main character for sure 😂 nothing was funny without him.
@@User-rka_zykx76 I forget where I heard it but it is pretty well documented there was a time they were friends for the camera only. Off-screen they couldn't stand each other. I mean, I don't know them personally obviously but that's definitely what I have heard.
As a skater growing up, I remember when he announced the idea for street league and I remember thinking it was too good to be true and that it must just be part of the show’s script but it actually happened exactly how he proposed it. So when street league actually became a thing and was way better than x games or dew tour, i couldnt stop thinking about how he wasnt just an actor, this guy must be incredibly rich. This video was mind blowing bro
The most dangerous type of man is a focused one! Hats off to Rob 👏. HE PUT THAT WORK IN!
People thought this guy was an ass but in reality he was a genuinely good person with a clever business mind. He made sure everyone around him got a piece of his pie, his family, friends and his business associates. He's a man of his word and he's a good example of working hard and never giving up can attain your dreams.

This is legit my fav rob show
Agree had no idea who he was prior and enjoyed the show
@@phonephone355 It's not really that people dislike Rob as a person, it's just that most of the hate comes from skateboarding purists that just blankly hate on any skateboarder that started a show/"sold out" i.e. Bam Margera, Ryan Sheckler. Skating Pros at the time were putting in 8hrs per day just to practice, get better, and get legendary footage only to get a couple thousand bucks for a 5 minute part in a video that only sold 150,000 copies.. Meanwhile you have skaters like Bam and Rob on a tv show not working as hard on skating and more on "Showing", and yet they get millions of constant viewers and an almost unlimited stream of revenue.
Wild boys & Bams show are up there, & possibly more successful in terms of how many people know about them.
I just found your channel recently and I really enjoy it. I love that you tell people to stay hydrated. That is so important. 🙏🏻💕
did not know that Rob Dyrdek was such a big dude like the man is an absolute tycoon and the way he makes plans the way he has ideas and he makes those ideas come to reality. It’s frankly astonishing props to him and rest in peace to big black. I think we all are grateful for the days of the rob and big black show.
Goddamn his story is impressive. I guess I shouldn’t be shocked, any man who can make a show that even my 70 year-old father watches 2-3 episodes every night, has to be a genius
@Josh Skipka gpa can like what he wants, he earned it. your comment is in bad taste
@Josh Skipka I never liked that show at least he never made me laugh and the constant pause for laughter moments made feel like a talk show just extremely zoomed in on the host but no guest to bounce off of like ridiculousness. Having variety and other stars just watch stupid shit while talking about themselves here and there was vastly more engaging imo.
my 80something year old great-grandparents watch it all the time
Ridic' has been on for more than 10 years. That's way over the average show shelf life. Classics like Seinfeld and MASH were in that category but everything else just FADES away..Not Rob...NOPE. Love Rob and RIP TO his big buddy...
It’s the absolute worst. I had really bad double pneumonia last May and was stuck in the ER for over two days while waiting for a room.. all that was on tv the entire time was this show.
Rob&Big and Fantasy Factory were iconic, everything he did, from giving back to the community, putting his friends and family in the positions to be successful, Steelo has his own brand basic math, and Chanel went from being a receptionist to being a Model and launching her music career. Rob is more than just a skater, and MTV was lucky to have him for the last 2 decades, we love you Rob...

"Launching her music career" is a bit strong. Let's say "capitalized on her image"

I grew up watching since way back in his pro skating days and it’s actually mind blowing impressive how much he’s accomplished.
I always wondered why rediculousness was always on MTV. Anytime I went to a hotel or something I would put that on as background noise, never really paying that much attention to it.
I never realized Rob was such a genius entrepreneur. He really hit the ground running when he was only in his 20s. Mad respect.
I swear everytime I would turn on MTV it would just be Ridiculousness playing literally all day 😂 so much nostalgia in this video
Dolphin laugh
@@PatrickCc 😭😭
that about all they play these days anyway. Mtv really is not worth it anymore. Mtv is nothing more now then a brand name
This is truly one of THE most fascinating videos I’ve watched in awhile. I love when someone is this smart and ahead of the game. Not just looking for the quick buck but thinking of the long term.
Good for him you always hear about the person getting taken advantage of by giant corpo networks but it's great to see someone profit so greatly off one ! I didn't realize there were that many episodes of ridiculousness... I figured there were like 200 being rerun but 800+ ! That's nuts! Hahahah Rob is such a blessing to those cohosts 😅
This is so wild! Rob just seems like a big goof, but his business acumen is dang brilliant. I didn't know any of this. Very interesting. Thanks Patrick!
Yeah it really is impressive. He doesn't always come across as a particularly smart guy, but I think he's more intelligent than he seems, and especially when it comes to business stuff he's apparently an absolute genius. I think people oversimplify the concept of intelligence, as if it can just be boiled down to "brain horsepower", but I think there's a lot more to it than that. Everyone's brain works in different ways and has different strengths and weaknesses when it comes to certain things.
@@angryhobo212 that point about intelligence was very well-said.
"Do not cast your pearls before swine"
I have to give him his respect. I always liked his approach to business. Honestly, the only reason why I watched MTV in the 2000s was because MTV Cribs, then Pimp my Ride and Rob & Big. Going into the 2010s, the only thing I watched on MTV was Ridiculousness. He was a pop culture star by 2011. Can't blame him, he's always capitalized on opportunities. Respect.
When rob and big was done I was sad. I really loved watching that show back in the mid 2000s.
Ridiculousness is literally the only thing MTV plays anymore
Rob and Big and Fantasy Factory were my shows back in the day. Watched Rob and Big EVERY day when i got home from High School. Their friendship made the show so good. Was crushed the day i heard Big passed. R.I.P Big Black
Love your videos man!! You’re great at what you do. Also, I love that you remind viewers to hydrate. Very wise and admirable.
what a boss. i only ever tuned into MTV as a kid to watch rob and big and now i'm not surprised to find out he knew what he was doing and understood their target audience better than the people running the network
Truly stated!
So are you still busing tables or have you graduated to bartender that’s allowed to serve drinks one day a week. Because I imagine that’s about the best that anyone that enjoyed that show could amount to.
@@alexclark4968 clearly someone who liked this show must have wounded you somehow. that's unfortunate, but it's not my responsibility.
I remember turning on mtv one day when I was a kid to watch the lingerie football league during my…. Developmental years
That's wild. When I was a kid, I watched MTV for music videos.
I had no idea he started SLS (Street League Skateboarding). I appreciate that he never forgot his routes and continued to invest into the skating community whether that was SLS or helping create skateparks.
I still remember the episode of fantasy factory where he talks about the idea to get things started, Now look where it's at today. Honestly better than X games street competition in my opinion
My only beef with SLS is the whole do a line and do the same line over and over again with little tweaks. They should have to do new lines everytime. Spicy is it up
Still skaters tried to shit on competition skating but he actually made being a professional skateboarding a good career.
ya, i remember seeing SLS start where he would have a sitdown with pros and get there signature on some kind of contract or somthing saying they would skate in it, hyping it up if you will, i forget if it was on fantasy factory or youtube clips...

MTV got lazy and stopped financing original programming bc Rob and his shows (Rob and Big, Fantasy Factory, and Ridiculousness) garnered the most ratings. All Rob did was exploit the MTV execs for all the cash he could for him and his family. Respect on Rob.
Rob & Big is still one of my all time favorite shows. I don’t remember ever laughing so hard as I did at their antics. Especially that damn song “Dirty Girl” 😂😂😂 That was absolute peak comedy. I loved Fantasy Factory too! But only when Big came back lol
Crazy to think he was ready to quit TV in the mid 2010s but MTV was so desperate for him they give him whatever he wanted and complete control over his shows and brand in order to stay, while still being nothing without him to this day
love the way you articulate your words and how you stay on topic moving from one point to the next, you should have well over 5 mil subs by now bro keep up the good work
Yes dudes story telling is o.p for sure
In time he will get there
Yeah, he's not funny though, that may be why. The info is definitely on point especially for this type of KZhead channel. Edit: actually rethinking it I kind of like the fact he's not constantly trying to crack jocks.
@@penskepc2374 you dont need to be funny for doc kind of videos bro if they made well he still we be successful and he is pretty good at it
It’s so weird when people say this and specify a number of subscribers. As in your appreciation and enjoyment of a specific thing makes it worth an exact amount of attention. What the hell lmao
I found your channel and have been binge watching them all day. Great job!
rob dyrdek was my idol got me into skating too when he was recording rob & big at the time (RIP Big Black)
I always knew Dyrdek had his hands in a lot of different ventures but I had no idea about the extent to which he took it! Excellent production.
Its crazy to me that even though he was making crazy amounts of money he still wanted to give something to the skate culture, a shoes designed for skateboarders, a trucks company and skateplazas. He even produced movies i remember the street dreams movie with prod and ryan omg that movie used to hype me up so much
He paid the alien riders out of his own pocket for a while and was instrumental in that company returning to it's creator.
And the skate community still calls him a sellout. It’s insane, he has done so much for skateboarding
@@PatrickCc not me, i think he's great, i grew up watching street league and still do every year. he's helped put skateboarding on the map
@@PatrickCc i wish mtv would just go back to music, then we wouldn't need mtv classic or mtv live.
@@PatrickCc he actually built the skate park in my neighborhood in noth Hollywood when I was a freshman in high school literally one block from my school so you can imagine everyone going there during and after school to smoke and skate.
Great video! Thanks for the recap with the actual numbers. I was right there with it as a kid, but never knew the scope, data, or understood the context.
Patrick, stumbled across your channel earlier this week and been binging. your content is so good. keep it up
This motivated me in so many different ways to get stuff up and running ANOTHER BANGER PATRICK!!!
Jidionn
Who asked ?
Thank u king 🤞
if rob dyrdek can do it.. lol
L poki
I used to make fun of my brother for always watching Ridiculousness. Now I see, it's not his fault it was the entirety of MTV. Still can't believe they played it nonstop for multiple days
No... it was still his fault, its not like mtv was the only channel available, too lazy to change the channel? Haha
they still do 😭
Honestly. I loved it when it first came out but it got old quick as shit. Now MTV is completely dead
They still do..or at least it seems that way.
No it's still his fault tf
Very inspirational, Rob! Excellent! Thanks for the content, Patrick.
Rob was my idol growing up. Idolized success and healthy mental status, not partying/drugs ect. True role model from our generation. Great video my boy
Bruh I’ve watched him my whole life and I didn’t think he was a meat head, but I didn’t think he was a business wizard like that. I didn’t realize how much of a role model he was as well.
Rob and Big was such a great show. The friendship between them was so genuine and made every episode was great. RIP Big Black.
yeah made every episode was great is accurate indeed
Love your channel so far. I'm a new watcher but been binging your vids. But also wanted to say, between Casual Geographic and yourself I am never gonna forget to drink water lol. Appreciate you, stay hydrated(:
This video was very well put together, great audio, easy to follow story, great images. I am very impressed
This makes me so proud and happy for Rob.
As a result, MTV sucks now though. They used to play good shows, but not anymore.
Yoooooo A wild Gameboy Jones
@@ville666sora I miss high school would wake up early just to catch all the new music videos come home watch Rob and Big, Viva La Bam, the Ryan Dunn prank show, Bully Beatdown, man they used to be so cool.
fucking why????
He is why I stopped watching MTV. Nobody wants to watch endless amounts of the same show.
It's crazy to think Rob and Bam were in the same business at one point, and who really matured out in the end. I always loved Rob & Big, was my favorite show ever as a kid and it always felt real and genuine compared to everything else they put out. RIP Big Black.
It seems like Rob never let the partying take over his life, considering his business savvy parties were probably more about building connections. Bam was a massive party animal to begin with and the depression after Ryan Dunn's death seems to have put him in a huge spiral that he's only recently started recovering from.
Bam was cursed to begin with then his home boy died and well...the rest is not good history. I did love the way he terrorized his Mom and Phil. Those episodes never got old..genius for sure
Not about maturing out man. Bam was and is a major addict.
I knew from Rob and Big that this dude was a hustler. He gets his hands in a lot. True inspiration
I saw his face on a video and my heart sank. I was so scared this was a cancel video. I’ve always admired him because of his success and business sense!
I’m surprised nobody knew he was such an entrepreneur. Every episode was about them hustling or accomplishing dreams at the fantasy factor
These people never achieved anything all judging n shit
Never watched it
@@jamalrell7642 born rich,grow up rich
right
Dude basically owned one of the biggest shoe brands in the 90-00’s. How many brands have y’all owned? Lmao
Man honestly - you're doing such an amazing job with these videos. Sometimes I don't even know anything about the topic but you still make it very interesting and I'll always watch till the end. Keep up the great work and you're gonna be at a million in no time :)
Tithiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii dbd god
Wasn't expecting to see you here
Im thinking what to comment
I like your show. You are easy to listen to with your calm voice and the way you bring it all together.
Great video, thanks for your work!
I miss Fantasy Factory so much. I stayed up till 2 AM all the time watching new episodes and re-runs back when I was in middle school.
Knew that Rob Drydek had his skateboarding and have enjoyed Steelo and Chanel & Rob with the group's humor/banter on Ridiculousness but had no idea of all the interconnected businesses he had set up. What a fantastic story!! Thanks for sharing this!!
Just discovered this channel a couple days ago. Rocketing to my top 5 quickly. 🚀🚀🚀
One of the best videos out thanks !
man thats crazy. he seemed like such a goofball/airhead, never knew he was such a business minded person. its one thing to be popular and promote a brand, which is basically what i thought he did. its entirely different to write up your own contracts and all the stuff he did. dude was a business savant apparently
He still is. He’s not dead 💀
Pbeo
Before he blew up he stated that he got hypnotized for success, not sure if true, but he definitely did blow up.
he’s been like that since day 1 you must not know about rob. It’s his lifestyle his parents raised him right, incredible people.
The thought of a humble skateboarder on his way to make a billion dollars, and most likely make his family financially comfortable for centuries is inspiring to me
Monopolizing a tv show network that has become a shell of what it used to be. Awesome.
Shit at least someone’s taking advantage of a greedy network that controls and underpays it’s staff, and is pretty much crumbling before your eyes. To me that is a true entrepreneur
MTV was going to go downhill eventually
They kind of expected everyone to stay a teenager forever instead of evolving
humble? did you miss the part about flashy car and jewelry?
This is a literal masterclass on becoming a mogul
Amazing, thank you for all this info, great video.
he doesnt miss ppl, he doesnt miss! another amazing video bruv, that line about MTV being his youtube channel got me so good!
Listen to me bro, this isn’t Peckham or hackney and we don’t say bruv here
"Before you start, win." Great line! 🤣😁
I love your videos so much and thank you for keeping me hydrated. I take some water every time you do
As a 22 year old, I grew up watching Rob and Big Black. Definitely one of the highlights of my childhood. RIP Big Black 🤍🤍
MTV is dead as a network, and Rob was brilliant at hosting their funeral. His content was actually fun for viewers, he seemed like a genuinely decent guy, albeit with an ego, and he kept up other hustles on the side, very effectiveky capitalizing on what he had done already. A perfect tale of the rare instances where the little guy gets ahead. Good for him. Hope he's still happy.
He isn't a little guy bro
He started out as one though, which was the whole point. Thanks for having reading comprehension. @@ThePeacePlant
Thankfully it's no longer available on my TV.
