- 0:3911 years

- 0:44especially if you're new to our story
- 0:47some people think
- 0:48that our story is brand new the Parker
- 0:51movie started 11 years
- 0:55ago but uh
- 1:00I can't say anything
- 1:02else other than what I've already said
- 1:04as far as how's Parker how the
- 1:08kids it's not my place to
- 1:19say this is uh this has been
- 1:22tough and I'm not going to lie I'm not
- 1:26doing real good right
- 1:27now not complaining
- 1:30just saying how it
- 1:32is I'm broke I don't know that the I
- 1:35made the right decision all those years
- 1:38ago to go public with our
- 1:45story hasn't been a fun road cuz again
- 1:48I'm
- 1:49broke I don't want to be broken but I'm
- 1:55broke I've had opportunities lots of
- 1:58opportunities to take money
- 2:00to give the inside scoop on my children
- 2:04and their relationship with their mother
- 2:06and I've turned them all
- 2:08down believe me I'd love to have the
- 2:11money it's not my
- 2:16place I've been accused since D near day
- 2:19one of you're only doing this to make
- 2:22money off your children you're
- 2:23exploiting your
- 2:25children some people believe me when I
- 2:27say that's [ __ ] and some don't
- 2:30seems like most people do but there's a
- 2:32lot of people that don't believe me at
- 2:33all I can't say that I blame people for
- 2:37having
- 2:38doubts I've been wrong about people I've
- 2:41followed stories like everybody
- 2:44else come to find out sometimes I was
- 2:47right some going to find out sometimes I
- 2:49was
- 2:53wrong but
- 2:58uh I guess
- 3:00all I know to tell the the haters and
- 3:02the reason I'm saying this because here
- 3:05lately I've been off of social media a
- 3:08lot quite a bit particularly this
- 3:11Channel people have always asked me
- 3:13how's Parker out the kids and now people
- 3:15are asking me why are you dodging the
- 3:17question hm why are you what are you
- 3:20hiding
- 3:21Caleb well I'm hiding a lot I'm hiding
- 3:24my kids' privacy it's no one's business
- 3:27unless my children want to make it
- 3:29someone business and go public it's not
- 3:32my
- 3:33place again I know what the scoop is I
- 3:36know what's going on but I'm not going
- 3:38to talk about
- 3:40it if you want to someone really wants
- 3:42to find out the scoop go ask my
- 3:49children but good luck ask yourself
- 3:53this if that was you and your dad
- 3:56exposed the to the whole world what was
- 3:59going on would you you want to talk
- 4:00about it would you just give up
- 4:02willingly give up that
- 4:04information I doubt
- 4:07it I don't know what it's like firsthand
- 4:10for my kids
- 4:12to going through what they're going
- 4:14through but I know what it's like going
- 4:16through on my
- 4:18end but ask yourself would you want to
- 4:21talk about it ask yourself this at what
- 4:24price would you eventually talk about it
- 4:30again I've been offered not Millions but
- 4:32I've been offered thousands lots of
- 4:34times to talk about it I can talk about
- 4:39me but I'm just not going to talk about
- 4:41my kids and believe me as broke as I am
- 4:44now because of my choice all those years
- 4:47ago I'd love to take the money I could
- 4:51use it right
- 4:52now but but I never I never was in this
- 4:55for the
- 4:56money believe me I've had a business
- 5:00my business peaked in
- 5:022006 the final year of my marriage to
- 5:05their mother I grossed
- 5:081.2 something million dollars as a
- 5:11Caterpillar diesel engine field service
- 5:13mechanic servicing drilling rigs in the
- 5:15west Texas
- 5:18oilfield I can't go back to that for one
- 5:21I'm too old I'm
- 5:2347 I can't physically stand the the
- 5:26demands and the pressure and two I know
- 5:29this excuse is played out and Way
- 5:32overused by so many people who fake it
- 5:36but I have PTSD from West Texas from all
- 5:40of Texas to be quite honest I hate that
- 5:44place I resent what they did to my
- 5:46children I resent what they did to
- 5:51me I'm not again I'm not sure that I did
- 5:55the right
- 5:58thing I did the the best I could with
- 6:00what I had to work with it the
- 6:01information I had at the
- 6:05time it is what it is it's out there and
- 6:09I'm suffering because of
- 6:12it again I'm not asking for sympathy
- 6:15just stating a
- 6:18fact I don't know what to tell people
- 6:21that find themselves in our
- 6:24shoes I you do have my sympathy but
- 6:27there's nothing I can do about it
- 6:32I documented what was happening to
- 6:35us in hopes that at the time garnering
- 6:39sympathy to expose the Crooked family
- 6:44courts but now I just keep going because
- 6:47yeah um I make money off this channel
- 6:50that's all I got
- 6:52left and it's not
- 6:54much people look at the Parker movie W
- 6:56that's got 50 million views you must be
- 6:58a millionaire
- 7:00Fat
- 7:03Chance not even
- 7:09close my hopes with this channel is the
- 7:12best I can hope for at this
- 7:16point is to help young people
- 7:20particularly young men because I know
- 7:21what it's like to be a young man I don't
- 7:24know what it's like to be a young
- 7:26woman particularly I hope to
- 7:30help young men not repeat the same
- 7:32mistakes that I've made because
- 7:34ultimately there's really no way out of
- 7:36it except just ride it out and it
- 7:42sucks I've been riding it out since I
- 7:44got divorc 17 years
- 7:50ago finally got all the dollars settled
- 7:53with the state I still owe
- 7:56$46,000 or something they're still after
- 7:59me they still they'll never let up they
- 8:01never
- 8:02stop
- 8:05again I I know I get criticized for my
- 8:08choices but I say this my rebuttal is
- 8:11what would you do let's steal all four
- 8:15of your children and let's steal your
- 8:17bank
- 8:18accounts and let's steal your house and
- 8:21let's let your M kids move 5 hours away
- 8:25and let's see how well you keep your
- 8:27business up
- 8:30I screwed up 27 years ago when I decided
- 8:35that I wanted to marry that woman and
- 8:37make four kids with their I screwed
- 8:40up that was a devastating blow that was
- 8:43a devastating mistake for me to
- 8:46make I screwed up
- 8:50again in
- 8:532013 when Parker was taken from me I
- 8:57screwed up again by turning to alcohol
- 9:00to solve my
- 9:02problems I own
- 9:04it I screwed up bad I I I regret it I
- 9:08shouldn't have done
- 9:09it I guess that's another reason I like
- 9:11to keep my channel
- 9:13up I'm in decent shape for my
- 9:19age I'm in great shape for my
- 9:22age but I almost
- 9:24died it was bad there for a while
- 9:27towards the very end and and another
- 9:29comment I get is well Caleb I'm glad for
- 9:32your to hear about your sobriety in fact
- 9:35today's the
- 9:3719th 2 days from now it be four years
- 9:40I've been sober but people say a lot I'm
- 9:43real glad about your Spidy but that only
- 9:45proves that you're an alcoholic during
- 9:47the Parker movie no I wasn't I drank
- 9:50occasionally like most of
- 9:54America does that make me an alcoholic
- 9:56cuz if it does that makes everybody
- 9:57drinks an alcoholic I didn't become an
- 10:00alcoholic a full-blown dedicated
- 10:03alcoholic till two and a half months
- 10:05later when Parker was taken from
- 10:07me that's when I became an
- 10:12alcoholic and I shouldn't have done it
- 10:15and I have to live with
- 10:19that my only hope
- 10:21is to show people who have made already
- 10:24made that mistake and become alcoholic
- 10:26you better quit now cuz you won't make
- 10:28it if you had notice look around people
- 10:31are dropping like
- 10:32flies you better get yourself together
- 10:34and you can do
- 10:37it I'm still broke that's the one leg
- 10:40that I haven't managed to overcome yet
- 10:42I've got
- 10:43[Music]
- 10:44my embarrassingly low investment into
- 10:47the crypto market right now which is
- 10:49awful I live in a $3,000 junky little
- 10:53basically a lean
- 10:55to here in South Florida where the rents
- 10:58400 a month and I can just barely make
- 11:00it half the
- 11:05time but I'm trying to show people who
- 11:08have already become alcoholics and
- 11:10they're already in the mess that they
- 11:12find you know half that's how most
- 11:14people find my channel looking for
- 11:18answers you can do it you can
- 11:21quit you can get your body in
- 11:26shape I'm still working on my spiritual
- 11:30mind I am a Christian I was an agnostic
- 11:33for a long time for 10
- 11:48years but I genuinely hope to be able to
- 11:50prove to others that you can make it
- 11:53financially eventually I'd really like
- 11:55to be able to prove that up I don't know
- 11:56if I can or not cuz again this is tough
- 12:05and for the critics who say just go get
- 12:07a job I owe so much money and back child
- 12:11support and now back taxes because
- 12:15of just barely being able to survive
- 12:18getting through this with my kids
- 12:20knowing
- 12:21me I'm not qualified to do anything but
- 12:24be a field mechanic and I'm too old to
- 12:26be a field mechanic I could probably do
- 12:28it but
- 12:29to be real honest with you I'm old and
- 12:32I'm
- 12:34tired and I I just mentally I can't do
- 12:38it so that leaves me to be at age 47 I'm
- 12:42qualified for basically minimum
- 12:46wage minimum wage working for someone
- 12:49half my
- 12:51age taxes taken
- 12:54out and this
- 12:57economy paying rent
- 12:59cuz I'm not going to find in this little
- 13:01town I'd have to
- 13:03move by the time taxes and rent and cost
- 13:06of living and child support and back
- 13:09child support all gets taken out I
- 13:11basically be breaking
- 13:13even and to be quite honest with you
- 13:16that just doesn't interest me anymore I
- 13:19used to be that guy that could just go
- 13:20work and work and work and work some
- 13:23would argue maybe that's why you got
- 13:24divorced cuz you work too much maybe
- 13:26you're
- 13:27right I picked the wrong woman and
- 13:31then I work too
- 13:35much damned if you do damned if you
- 13:38don't you don't work enough you don't
- 13:40you don't care about your
- 13:42family you work too much you don't care
- 13:44about your family you bring in plenty of
- 13:47money she's lonely and miserable and she
- 13:51takes you and gets a divorce cuz she's
- 13:52got a she deserves it cuz she's a woman
- 13:59don't make enough money you're a lazy
- 14:01bum can't provide for your own family
- 14:04it's lose lose for
- 14:09men there's a reason the birth rates
- 14:13going
- 14:14down
- 14:16and I've been pointing it out for years
- 14:19but uh mainstream and even high-end
- 14:23alternative media they acknowledge that
- 14:26the birth rate's going down they
- 14:27acknowledge that men aren't getting
- 14:29getting
- 14:29married they think they have covered why
- 14:33they're not getting
- 14:36married but the real reason they are not
- 14:38getting married is because women are
- 14:41financially incentivized to get
- 14:44divorced that's the real reason and it's
- 14:46through title for defunded family
- 14:51courts Matt Walsh he tries but he'll
- 14:55never acknowledge
- 14:57it there's there's a few others I don't
- 14:59know I'm going to go and name their
- 15:01names but they'll never acknowledge that
- 15:03it's the title for defunded family
- 15:05courts that incentivizes women to get no
- 15:09fault divorce they don't have to prove
- 15:11anything they don't have to prove
- 15:12infidelity they don't have to really
- 15:14prove anything
- 15:15just neglect or
- 15:21abuse so young men I'm telling you stop
- 15:26chasing women
- 15:29get jacked focus on
- 15:32yourself get
- 15:35ripped read
- 15:37books watch
- 15:39documentaries educate yourself CU I have
- 15:41learned this if you are rich and ripped
- 15:45and educated you are far more hard to
- 15:49[ __ ]
- 15:50with women are hypergamous that's just
- 15:54their
- 15:55nature their nature is to seek security
- 15:59for the benefit of them and that's not
- 16:02even necessarily a bad thing it's nature
- 16:04for them that's not need criticizing
- 16:07that's what they're supposed to
- 16:09do and some of the red pillar might say
- 16:11wow Caleb I can't believe you'd say that
- 16:13I liked you all until then well I would
- 16:16never in a million years tell my
- 16:18daughter London whatever you
- 16:21do make sure you find a broke fat guy
- 16:25who couldn't fight his way out of a
- 16:27paperback and that's who you should
- 16:28marry
- 16:29I'd never tell you that tell my daughter
- 16:31that I wouldn't expect any father to I'd
- 16:33expect fathers to say find yourself a
- 16:35man who's a man's man and he may be
- 16:38flawed and make mistakes but he's a
- 16:41fighter and he's a provider that's who a
- 16:44reasonable father would tell their their
- 16:46daughters to
- 16:48find generally speaking when you're a
- 16:50young man you make him fight you're not
- 16:53going to be a provider cuz you're young
- 16:54and that's not a slam towards you if
- 16:55you're young and broke especially in
- 16:57this economy
- 17:02young men wait until you're 30 32 35
- 17:06maybe even
- 17:0740 get yourself
- 17:10established they will come to you women
- 17:14don't care
- 17:15about your struggle to get there they
- 17:18care about who crosses the Finish Line
- 17:22That's who they want
- 17:25ultimately it's just how it is some
- 17:27women May be a little more headstrong
- 17:30and see that the family has
- 17:33money they'll stick with you long enough
- 17:36to either you make it or you get your
- 17:39family
- 17:40money but women are hypergamous they
- 17:43wait until the man cross the pish line
- 17:45other than that they don't
- 17:47care they care about security as they
- 17:53should which is why again I tell young
- 17:56men focus on yourself don't focus on
- 18:00these young
- 18:02girls you may be a good fling for a
- 18:05night or two or couple months but they
- 18:09don't care about you because you're poor
- 18:10you're
- 18:13broke all men in my opinion should wait
- 18:17until they are
- 18:19financially
- 18:22stable even if it takes you to your
- 18:2640 men can be 40 50 60 70 years old and
- 18:30still start a family women simply
- 18:35cannot their most fertile years are
- 18:38obviously in their early to mid
- 18:4120s again this isn't a slam towards
- 18:44women it's just that's just
- 18:46biology not even trying to make this
- 18:49political having not been a woman I
- 18:53don't really obviously don't have
- 18:56experience or the know how to really
- 18:58have recommendation
- 19:00for what to tell when I'm as far as
- 19:02giving advice I can give it from a man's
- 19:05perspective as a father of a
- 19:08daughter
- 19:10um if I were you i' i' I'd take care of
- 19:13myself don't sleep
- 19:16around save yourself make
- 19:19yourself the best version of you you can
- 19:22make and if you are wanting a
- 19:26family you might want to get that
- 19:28started in your 20s and I wouldn't go
- 19:31for a man your age young ladies find a
- 19:35guy in his
- 19:3730s that doesn't have
- 19:41baggage you don't want to find yourself
- 19:43someone like I was in my
- 19:4630s me getting remarried shortly after
- 19:49getting divorced that was the dumbest
- 19:51thing I've done since I got married the
- 19:53first
- 19:55time find yourself a man that's got a
- 19:58[ __ ]
- 19:59together that's maybe had a relationship
- 20:02or
- 20:03two doesn't have a bunch of kids
- 20:05especially kids with a bunch of
- 20:07different women in and out of Child
- 20:09Support
- 20:10Court find yourself a man that's in
- 20:13shape cuz that just pretty much
- 20:14automatically assumes he's not an
- 20:18alcoholic again as far
- 20:21as how the
- 20:23kids house Parker what's their
- 20:26relationship with their mother they're
- 20:27fine they're 19 21 23 and 25 they're
- 20:33grown adults they've got their problems
- 20:35they've got their
- 20:36successes it's not my place to talk
- 20:38about where they are and what they're
- 20:41doing other than having to find some way
- 20:45to pay off their
- 20:47mother yeah other than I have to pay her
- 20:51$46,000 and some change I don't know how
- 20:53I'm going to do it but that's where I'm
- 20:56at
- 20:58if somebody really wants to find out how
- 21:01Parker is how his relationship with his
- 21:04mother ask
- 21:06Parker ask him I don't know what to tell
- 21:12you he's probably if you can even find
- 21:14him he's probably going to tell you to
- 21:15go jump in the
- 21:20creek if someone offered him $5
- 21:24million I would imagine he'd tell you
- 21:27cuz again
- 21:29put yourself in my kids shoes would you
- 21:31want to talk about
- 21:32it knowing that your mother's
- 21:35attitude and her selfish behaviors is
- 21:38all over the Internet probably not well
- 21:41Caleb why don't you take it down
- 21:47well the reason I don't take it down is
- 21:51I'm still pissed about the whole
- 21:53thing that is my only Lifeline at the
- 21:56moment that is my only income at the
- 21:59moment other than my
- 22:02investments even if I did take it down
- 22:05my content has been downloaded
- 22:08re-uploaded dozens hundreds possibly a
- 22:10thousand times by other people I dare
- 22:13say the people that have covered my
- 22:15videos may have made a lot more off it
- 22:18off of it than me if I take it down the
- 22:21void will get filled somebody's going to
- 22:23make the money I don't never see people
- 22:25griping at the those people all the
- 22:27ticktockers and other YouTub YouTubers
- 22:28and instagrammers and whatever I don't
- 22:31see anybody yelling at them about
- 22:32covering it they only I'm the only one
- 22:34that gets yelled
- 22:39at yeah I'm not going to take it down
- 22:41because at the moment that's my only
- 22:42source of
- 22:44income I feel cheated I feel
- 22:47betrayed and I'm going to keep it up I
- 22:49mean the damage is
- 22:52done there's no there's no going back
- 22:54the internet is
- 22:56forever all the more reason why I'm not
- 22:59going to talk about how my kids are now
- 23:01other than say they're fine I'm not
- 23:02going to talk about their relationship
- 23:04with their mother if they want to talk
- 23:06about it they can talk about it if you
- 23:09want to go find Parker and his brothers
- 23:11and sister and pay him five 10 million
- 23:13bucks to get the
- 23:15story if Parker would have come to me
- 23:17and say hey Dad what would you do I'd
- 23:19say hell yeah take the money son might
- 23:22as well it's a dog eat dog
- 23:24world but again that's up to him and
- 23:27again I've been off offered not Millions
- 23:29but I haven't offered thousands lots of
- 23:32times and believe me I'm broke I could
- 23:35use the
- 23:36money but I'm not going to sell my kids
- 23:39out that was never the intention in the
- 23:41first

- 24:16place again maybe I screwed up maybe I
- 24:19maybe I shouldn't have done it I don't
- 24:22know but that doesn't mean that I owe
- 24:24everyone an
- 24:27explanation if I wanted to just milk
- 24:29this for all it's worth I'd be like
- 24:31every other overly dramatic YouTube
- 24:34channel and be talking about every
- 24:37little thing that's never was what this
- 24:40channel was about ever I can talk about
- 24:44me and believe me it's not flattering to
- 24:48talk about yourself here it is 27 years
- 24:51after meeting here 17 years after
- 24:52divorcing her walking by myself out here
- 24:57in South Florida
- 24:59being
- 25:03broke again my channels I've said it I'm
- 25:06public about it my channel is my only
- 25:08source of income at the
- 25:12moment I could be like every other
- 25:16pathetic YouTuber out there that simply
- 25:21sells their souls for
- 25:25money that's just that never has been
- 25:28what I was about I wanted her to stop
- 25:31suing me I wanted her to stop jailing my
- 25:35kids I wanted her to stop taking my kids
- 25:385 and 1 half hours away to San
- 25:42Antonio cuz that was
- 25:46tough I had to shut down my whole life
- 25:49and lose everything just to be a father
- 25:52of my children
- 25:58that's what I don't understand about a
- 26:00lot of my critics they grp at
- 26:03me for uploading all of that
- 26:07stuff 11 years ago with Parker and eight
- 26:12years 7 eight years ago with
- 26:14bla they grap at me for uploading and
- 26:17now they grp because I'm hiding
- 26:22something it just seems to me like some
- 26:25people are just going to gripe
- 26:28I don't know what to tell
- 26:31you so I guess what it boils down to is
- 26:35I don't know what the answer is how to
- 26:37survive what y'all are going
- 26:41through I guess I'm a good example of
- 26:43what not to
- 26:48do cuz I I don't know that it was worth
- 26:52it I don't regret being there for my
- 26:55children
- 27:00but only thing I know to do is just keep
- 27:04going I'm in it this
- 27:06deep so I guess I'll uh
- 27:10be giving my walks on this Trail for the
- 27:14time being
- 27:16until Bitcoin decides to do whatever
- 27:19it's going to do crash to nothing or go
- 27:23to the Moon I have no
- 27:26idea so
- 27:33I don't know give me your give me your
- 27:35ideas if this is something you
- 27:39enjoy hearing someone with my strange
- 27:42ass
- 27:44experience let me know what you'd like
- 27:48to discuss or like for me to discuss
- 27:50from my point of
- 27:51view middleaged single father broke off
- 27:55his ass relying on YouTube and descript
- 27:59Investments you say it out loud it
- 28:01sounds like just too many Christmas
- 28:03sounds
- 28:05pathetic I wouldn't wish this on
- 28:09anyone best thing I know to do is to not
- 28:12find yourself in this position in the
- 28:14first place
- 28:15just
- 28:18until Society improves until the family
- 28:21courts decide
- 28:23to change the rules and change the laws
- 28:26that aren't so devastating to men
- 28:30stay single
- 28:32man if you do get married wait till

- 28:36established make sure you get a
- 28:38prenuptial agreement make sure she knows
- 28:40it up front she steps out of line all
- 28:44right you're on your own
- 28:47chick make sure she can't take
- 28:49everything cuz they say she takes half
- 28:51which she

- 28:55winds up being everything
- 28:58I mean ask anybody that's in business if
