its time we tell you the truth...

Team Raar, what a journey it has been. Thinking back to the very beginning to where we are today. So much has changed. There are so many questions. People have changed. Things have changed. You guys have changed. And today we are going to be talking about everything and leaving nothing on the table. The journey of team is nothing short of amazing. We've had an incredible run with incredible people, but today things are a little bit different. They are not at all how things once were. The videos are different. The team dynamic has dissolved away and I've yet to make a video to address any of this kind of stuff. I just keep moving forward with our lives. But today is the day where I want to take the time and take this video to link up with every single member of team Raar. See what's up. Where are they now? And what is going on? Do we still talk? Are we still friends? Are we fighting? Like what is happening? You guys have so many different questions and I want to get them answered and talk about it because a lot has changed. Team Roar was one of the most dominant creator groups of all time and being early into the game. Starting in about 2018, we really paved the landscape for pretty much all of social media the way you see it today. Back then, creator groups weren't really a thing and people didn't know how to do them. And the ones that did exist, like Team 10 and others, only lasted for a very short duration. But team Roar had longevity. We created content that lasted the test of time. You guys grew up watching us. We had major lasting impacts with our audience, the platform of YouTube, and future creators. But I'm sure a lot of you guys already noticed a couple years ago, Team Raar started to change forever. There's a lot of questions, a lot of answers that you guys want. And I think maybe the best way to do this is just to go over there. So today I'm going to be going to each and every member of Team Raar, going to their house, checking in with them, and I want to show you guys what they're up to, what our current relationship status is. So let's hop in the car and let's start because house number one is my ex-girlfriend Liz. It's been a long time, like 3 years. I can hear her coming. I hope this is the right address. Brian, yo, what's up? What are you doing here? What? You're at my house? What do you mean? Am I doing here? What the heck? Seriously, what are you doing here? I'm I'm at home. What do you mean? This is This is my house. You live with her? My girlfriend? My girlfriend of 5 years. What? Dude, this is Dude, don't do that. Stop. What are you talking about? I need to put the wrong address in. No, that's what you get. You thought you were going for No, this is my I promise you Liz is not here. She doesn't live here. No, you can come look if you want. Okay. I thought this place looked different. Just take your shoes off. Yo, this is sick. Hey, it's it is such a disaster, right? You bought a house. Mhm. I did. I bought this house. It's really dark here. Guys, it turns out stop number one on today's journey was actually my good friend Ryan Prunty. Ryan gave me a tour of his new house. He's got a guest room, a garage, three and a half bathrooms, three floors, and he even has this. This is the puppy. Oh, wow. This is Mila. Hi. She is so cute. Oh my goodness. She's very sweet. Oh, don't fall in your bowl. So, you're a puppy daddy now. Yeah, she's pretty cute. She's pooping on everything, which is not great. I haven't slept in days. But yeah, we got this dog and she's very sweet. I'm going to put her back in. She'll probably start screaming and crying. So, get ready for that. And then office slash puppy room right now. So, it's pretty good. It's not bad. This is literally the cheapest house that was available in the area, too. I think this house is I think it's great. Thanks. Truly amazing. I appreciate it, man. Thanks. You know, YouTube, man. This isn't It's not really like a YouTuber house. No, I'm glad you finally got to come and visit, though. It's been a long time, Ryan. This is your second house. You're selling your first. You're going on to more investments. Mhm. So, where are you at in life? You know, people aren't seeing you on the YouTube videos much anymore. Like, what what's going on? I feel like I haven't seen you in like three months. I saw you yesterday. No, you can't. I saw you yesterday, but before that, it's been months. Yeah, it's been months. It's been months. So, life's pretty good. Moved in with my girlfriend. That was a really big thing. That was in October of last year. So, it's been like seven, eight months now. So, you have a girlfriend? Yeah. 5 years. 5 years on Saturday. I don't really post YouTube videos anymore. I kind of like use my old videos and then repost them. But what I've been working on is like a consulting company and a strategy company for YouTubers and for brands. Okay, Mr. Businessman. Yeah. Called Social Carry if we care. You can you can bleep that if you want. I'm not trying to shamelessly plug myself. What a plug. Good old PMR update video. Okay. But the the business is doing well. Like it's honestly going really well. We're only like four or five months in and it's on the verge of doing what my YouTube channel was doing. On the verge. Not there yet. Wow. For revenue. So you're successful. I hope so. I think I'm successful, right? Okay. And if you guys don't know, Ryan's first ever project was the Share the Love music video. Oh, yeah. It's gone platinum. It's got over 150 million views. It's probably a song almost every single one of you have heard, probably like over 1000 times. Oh, yeah. A lot of people wouldn't know that I did that, but that's like how I got involved working with Carter. Yeah. You came in with you and Zach, and you guys were the director and producer of all the video part of the song. Yeah. And we helped put it together, right? We just you guys decided to give us the opportunity to be part of the team for that project and then it worked out really well. There's a really embarrassing shot. I am in the video for like one frame at the very beginning with I think Hunter is next to me right now. Yeah. At the front door of the house. Yeah. We'll show it right now. So embarrassing, dude. You look so young in that. I'm so skinny, dude. I'm still skinny, but I'm like a twig in the You look like a boy. I have a boy. I have that shirt still. The silverback. There's a lot of questions that I see in the comments all over day after day, video after video that we just got to find the answer to. And only you can answer. Oh no. Question number one. Oh no. I see this everywhere. Yeah. What is the answer to that? That's not That's not a question. That's just a roast. I don't like Ryan. Also, the brutal part of that is I probably haven't even been in a video in a minute. So that's just out of nowhere. That's just a shot in the dark for no reason. Okay. Question one. A lot of people are curious. Ryan, you know, where do you stand with the other members of Team Roar? I don't talk to either of them that often to be honest with you. I saw Stove for the first time in months yesterday also actually because he found out that I got a puppy and he came over 2 minutes like literally came over 2 minutes later. Wow. Yeah. Stove and I live very close to each other but we still don't see each other all the time or talk all the time. Mhm. Everyone also is super curious where is your relationship with Liz and where has that been and gone and what does that look like in real life behind the scenes? Where's yours? Well, I asked you first. Um, Liz and I have not talked in months to be honest with you. Uh, I wish Liz nothing but the best. I hope I honestly do hope that at some point in life, me and her can reconnect and like catch up. I think that both of us near the end of our YouTube careers. I know she's still posting, I've seen, but I don't really know what her relationship is with YouTube now. At one point, she moved on from YouTube to pursue something else that was not in line with what I was doing. And then I personally had a negative relationship with YouTube. And because both of us kind of just went into these different pathways, we just don't really keep in touch very much. I don't know if she lives near I don't think she even lives around here anymore. Um, but again, I I wish her nothing but the best. Liz is a very very amazing person and has done very lovely things for me in my life and has been so kind and we have a bunch of really cool memories together. So to me it felt more like a natural drift apart if that makes sense as opposed to like a confrontational end if that makes sense. I don't know. Yeah, totally. Growing apart. Yeah. And like again I I wish her nothing but the best. I should probably reach at some point I should probably reach out to her and see how she's doing. I have not done that to be honest with you. Um, I don't know. I hope she's good, you know. Okay, but what about you? What's your relationship with Liz look like? How are you guys? Well, there is a lot of thoughts that I want to say and things that I haven't talked about ever since the breakup. Sure. But, uh, I think I should probably go check in on Stow first and then I will let everybody know. I want to say one more thing. So, I know people are commenting asking about what's going on between Carter and Liz all the time. I literally don't know. I don't know. And I see Carter very often. So, if he tells you that's the first time you're hearing about this, that's an exclusive because I don't know. Well, I guess it you'll see this video that you're in and then you will know. But uh yeah. Yeah. Give me a minute. I want to go talk to uh Stove before we get into anything crazy. I think I got the address right. We're pulling up to the address stove just texted me. Says it's right here. I think we might be in the wrong spot. This does not look like his house. All right. Well, here we are at 202. This does not look like a house. It doesn't look like anyone's Oh, stove. Oh my goodness. What's up, man? How you doing? I'm good. Stove, it's been a while. The audience hasn't seen you. I personally haven't seen you in a while. And now you're standing out. What's What is this? A business? Are you a business owner? I am now a business owner. I've been in business for like 6 months now. I am a a kuman instructor as you guys can see. I have my own center. I have my own students. It's It's insane. I can't believe that. That is insane. YouTuber to business owner.

I've been seeing all these comments like these, and you guys are wondering where I've been. Well, you're about to find out. So, I started this Kuman journey about a year ago. It all started with a passion of teaching and teaching math and reading. I get to teach math and help my community. So, I took the leap and started training a year ago. Started to look for a space for the center and the ball just, you know, started rolling from there. I can't believe you have a business you're running. So, when parents first walk in, just the parent waiting room, you know, they can see graphs. You got my degrees, you know. Of course, I have the YouTube play button there. One nil, baby. One nil. And then look at this. Official Steven Cho Kuman math and reading instructor. Yeah. If you guys didn't know a stove's real name. So you guys might be wondering what is Kumant? Kumant is an afterchool learning program that basically helps you be a good self-arner and think independently. Take We got to get the tour of this place though. This is crazy. So you know I'll have to send you some pictures. But basically this whole part was closed off. It was like two rooms. It wasn't open like this. I actually made these rooms. I got to say it was it was stressful. What's going on with those pushs? So, I have a a point system. You winows. Yeah. No way. You get squishallows. You get, you know, you have Hot Wheels under here. So, let me show you some of the Hot Wheels. And then I also, you know, give give out V-Bucks. Um, Robux. What? So, like you know, you know what they whatever they like. Have you ever heard of uh Le Boooo? You got those? Yeah. You have one here? Oh, not here. Not here. I have one in my car actually. Really? I got it. You guys see it? Yeah. We got out in the back. Out in the back. I had the three. Hold up. This is the new one. Yo, that is sick. Stove with the new whip. The new whip. I don't know if you guys know about labubas, but they're like super rare, hype, hard to get. And so is always on the forefront of his hype stuff. So, leave it to him to have like a whole collection. This is one I have. I I This is one I carry in the bucket. Yo, this looks like your merch. Oh, also, I don't know if you noticed. I know. What the? You know, you customized it, too. Snow's merch. I still I still rock it. It's quality stuff. Yo, this is cool. Yeah, but you know the LV outfit on it. Got to make a little hype. You made that or it came like that? I bought it. Uh, it's just with no outfit. So, I'll also show you like this is the family I got of L Boooos I got at home. Oh, that's Supreme Balenciaga. Fear of God. Yeah, I got more. So, I I'll give do an update picture. Don't sleep on these hype beast laboo. The lab boooos. One thing you guys probably didn't know about me through all the crazy videos and all the cooking I was doing is I love math. I grew up loving math. I was really good at it in elementary, middle school, all the way through grad school where I actually started teaching college students. You think you can uh remember this? Yeah. Give me a problem. Let's see if I can solve it. So, we're trying to get roots for x^2 - 2x - 8= 0. It's going to be a two on one of these. I think so. Then it's Oh, wait. No, hang on. That's wrong. I got pressure. I need to focus. Hang on. And if you guys are interested in learning math from the absolute best person in the world to teach it, Stove himself, you guys can actually come here to his business location, learn math from Stove. You just have to be here in Wake Forest, North Carolina. And literally, you can sign up and sit with Stove just like me and teach math right now today. All right, Stove. It's time for the juicy stuff. We got to talk. We have questions that the audience wants to answer. So, it's been a while. Team Roar, we used to live together, hang out together. We used to do everything together. Hundreds of millions of views, viral videos for years and years and years, and the videos just aren't the same anymore. The team isn't really together. And, you know, the audience just kind of wants to know like behind the scenes, like what is life like? Like, are we friends? Like, do we still hang out? I don't, you know, we're not friends at all. I don't like No, I'm just kidding. I you know people see these YouTube videos and um they think that's that's our life that's the only thing in our life you know it's like oh all they do is do last leave they just live in the swimming pool they live in the gaming room literally but outside of that you know we're also human beings we also have our you know social life we have you know relationship relationships outside of YouTube past like four years of doing YouTube with you was the greatest time is like you guys know all the fun videos we did all fit into your milestone. I know all all the you know all this craziness was it was a good time but at the same time as we got older I kind of realized you know I wanted to kind of do something else have um another business and you know that's that's how I think life goes as you grow you change you don't stay st stagnant and I think if you stay in one place that's also not a you know a good sign of growth there's other aspects to the team and there is some real life tension so you know if you're not comfortable talking about this. You don't have to. Oh boy, here comes the juicy stuff. I think you might know where this is angling because the audience just wants to know, you know, what's your relationship look like with Liz and Ryan? Do you talk to either of them? Oh boy. I don't know if I'm comfortable with the answer. No. Um, with Ryan, I actually um I keep up with Ryan actually. Um, you know, I'll talk with him. He's also a busy guy, so he has his own thing. And um I talked with him like you know recently and I will say one thing guys as you guys get older it's harder to catch up with friends just because at the end of the day it's like sometimes I don't have for me the social battery to be like okay let me just I got to chill out tonight um just watch some TV or something. So um with Ryan though back to your question yeah I do I I'll catch up with him once in a while. the next person, Liz. I mean, I'll be honest, you know, I'll be real. I I haven't talked to her in I don't even know how long. It's been well over a year. Um, like since the breakup pretty much or basically, yeah, let's be real. The the venture she first when she first split wasn't the best for any of us in terms of the brand. I mean, you guys you guys know what I'm talking about. Um, and to be brutally honest, I just didn't align with our kind of, you know, values and what we represented. And that kind of, I think, um, hit all of us like a brick wall, like out of nowhere. On top of that, I will say I um I don't really keep up with like friends that are girls in general anyways, just because I do have a girlfriend and and when I'm in a relationship um to respect my partner, I um I don't really talk with other females or keep keep up with other females cuz out of you know that's just me personally. Obviously, everyone has their own values and views. That is the truth about I guess uh me and Ryan and I feel like the boys are you know areid are you know there's nothing really there but with with Liz to be honest I haven't um I haven't talked to her I haven't really reached out um but at the end of the day I'm also kind of watching out for myself my relationship and also my business and what I got to do and yo what is that oh what time is it oh class is about to start actually you're open for business you guys got to get out of here we're going to stuck to that. We don't get out. I'll let you guys want to do worksheets, but the squish is back. Let's go. First student's here. All right. Stove is literally about to lock in. Do the teaching. This is going to be filled with classmates and people learn. It's amazing. Stove. Okay. First student. Yep. All right, man. It's incredible to see you. I'm so proud of everything you've done. Hey, it was good seeing you, too. Um I mean, you do need to brush up on some maths, so math, though. Yeah, I'll let you know. I'll let you know. You know, math, reading, whatever. But, uh for now, I got Get out of here, though. All right, we got to keep moving. All right, see us though. All right, so we just met with the boys and now it is to get back to where we started. We got to talk about my exgirlfriend Lizzie Capri. Oh boy. Let's get into it. Liz and I met for the very first time in 2012. It was our freshman year in college. Over the time, we grew a little bit closer and started to date. A few years later, we graduated college and about a year after that, that is when YouTube came into my life. Once YouTube started, that's when you guys started to see a glimpse into what my day-to-day looks like. And at the time, it was high energy. It was animated. We were having a blast. And that's where I want to like chime in and share a personal perspective. What you guys saw through the lens wasn't the full picture of everything. Not everything was doing back flips, breathing underwater, hanging out with lions, and driving lambos. That was just the fun stuff that we had the camera on for. Behind the scenes, there was an entire life. And I was in my young 20s, and dating alone was hard enough, let alone putting a camera on it for hundreds of millions of people to see. That just added so much pressure. The lifestyle of being a famous YouTuber quite literally consumed my entire life. In a lot of ways, I felt trapped in a relationship I wasn't sure was right for me or not. But I didn't have any time to figure that out. And so, I suppressed my thoughts, suppressed my feelings, and told myself, I'll figure it out next year and another year and another year. And it just went on and on and on. As you can imagine, that's not healthy. It's not fun. And it did take a toll and change my behaviors. It changed my attitude. I started to act a little bit differently. Some of these behaviors got caught on camera. And I think back to the last leave the school bus video. This was a huge moment that I didn't even understand was happening at the time because it was so natural. I was on the roof of the school bus. Liz was trying to get me eliminated. She reached up and pulled my leg and almost slid me off the roof. Liz, that's not funny. I'm literally going to fall. You have no idea. like land all the way down there. Just off. Go back in the bus. I'm honestly going to break up with Liz on this video probably. Literally like she is unbelievable. She like tried to pull me off the bus, which is so dangerous. Like I'm so upset with her. I've never been this mad. I got terrified for a second cuz I almost flipped over and fell off a school bus 10 ft tall and thought I was going to get hurt. Anytime I'm filming a video, I'm turning up a bit. I'm trying to be the best version of myself, the happiest, most entertaining. But at this moment, I just couldn't hold it together. I basically broke and I snapped. I broke up with her on the spot on camera. I didn't care that millions of people were watching. I just couldn't take it anymore. Yeah, guys. I'm calling Liz right now. I'm going to tell her I'm breaking up with her. You don't speak. We need to talk. What? I just can't believe you would do that to me. That was so dangerous. Sorry. So, like, honestly, I'm left with no choice, but I don't think we should continue dating or anything. Okay. I think we need to break up. You're so annoying. I'm serious. That was so scary. You tried to pull me up the bus. You're greedy for $10,000 and you're going to risk that over our relationship. Like, that's not cool. I know. You're being so mean to me, J. I'm not being mean to you. Make you cry. You almost made me cry on camera. If I didn't have the grass to hold on to, I would have been seriously injured. And then what? That's what I'm saying. Like, being so mean to me. No, you're being crazy. And clearly, like, this isn't going to work out. So, we have to break up and that's it. It's final. All right. I got to go. I'm going to go find someone that's not going to pull me off a school bus for 10 grand. I'm like, that's crazy. I got to go. Bye. I had to do it. You had to do it, guys. Carter just broke up with me. It's okay. Challenge in the world. He doesn't deserve you. He'll be back, sis. My emotions got the best of me. And I think Liz understood what I meant by those words because she didn't take it as a joke. I remember her on camera actually crying knowing the impact because I'm sure she felt similar in many ways with the stress of this relationship. Even me being more withdrawn over time I could only imagine the pressures that she felt. So when this situation happened that you guys all saw and there's so many comments about that that was in fact raw emotions and a glimpse into how I was feeling at times and it's not something I'm proud of. I never want to speak poorly on somebody or hurt their feelings or be the source of their struggles or suffering at all. Ever. I only ever want to lift people up. And there's so much emotion involved in a lot of these situations in the past. And yeah, that was one that uh that got the best of me. We we did break up that day. Um, it didn't last long again because of the pressures and needing to move forward and get the next videos out and continue to build our careers. Um, but the tensions were high without a doubt. Flash forward a few more years, we moved out of California. We moved to the current team our house. At this stage in our careers, we were trying to really plant our roots and really take things to the next level by owning property. It gives you full control over everything that we get to do here. All of team ultimately moved out to North Carolina as well and we set up a new home base. That is when the inevitable happened, which to you guys might have felt so unexpected or unbelievable. In my world, it just felt like the inevitable. We broke up. It was an incredibly challenging situation. despite all the pressures and struggles and challenges that we had. It's something that we talked about and it was extremely painful. But that is the decision that we made and that is the one that I have stuck to. It's been almost 3 years since the breakup and I've done nothing but work on myself and continue to move forward. So, to answer so many different questions that you guys are dying to hear, Liz and I have space between us. I haven't talked or seen her in person in a very long time. I think that's for the best. I think that we've grown apart. I think it's just a very touchy emotional experience where there's a lot of baggage and I don't see a future where we come back together in any sort of reunion way to make content or anything like that. I just I want to be as optimistic as possible, but I also I'm just trying to be authentic. I'm trying to be real. I hope that the best for the future. And to be honest, I don't know what that is. I know what's best for me currently right now. And that is just to live my life, live my story, my future chapters, and move forward and be the happiest, healthiest, best version of myself. And I wish that for her as well. finally finding the time and the space to continue to grow as a person and catch up on a lot of life that I missed out being a YouTuber. I know that sounds kind of crazy, but you miss out on a lot of normal things and I'm playing a lot of catch-up there. I might have done the craziest things you've ever seen day after day, year after year, and that is true. But I'm starting to reinvest my energy into my health physically, mentally, and personal growth. and doing that on my own chapter, my own path and my own journey has been such a rewarding, refreshing experience. And I can promise you there is going to be some incredible things to come here on this channel. This next chapter of my life is going to be an amazing one. And I can't wait to show you where I go. So, if you guys haven't subscribed, make sure you do right now cuz it's going to be fun.
