I interviewed Dude Perfect about how they went from trick shots at Texas A&M to planning a $100M Dude Perfect World, new streaming app, toys in Walmart, and more. The group of Tyler Toney, Garrett Hilbert, Cody Jones and twins Coby and Cory Cotton have come a long way. Thanks to Lickd for sponsoring: go.lickd.co/jonyoushaeiv8

In their first interview in years, the group opens up about their biggest fights, turning down brand deals, launching their Overtime show, the new Dude Perfect Streaming app, and their most popular videos like Gym Stereotypes, All Sports Golf Battle, and Giant Nerf Trick Shots.

This interview was awesome! Currently being a trick shot creator myself and taking a lot of inspiration from Dude Perfect it is always interesting to see how they made it and the steps they took. My biggest take away was how they branched out from trick shots and were willing to show more of their personalities for a better connection with the audience. Once again, incredible work Jon! This interview gave me a whole new perspective on how to build and maintain your brand.

They helped me out through so much in my life, and genuinely mean the world to me. I would not be who I am without them, and deserve all the credit they get! I’ve been to every single one of their tours, except the one last summer, got to meet them twice at 2 different meet and greets show on 2 different tours, have a signed basketball, book, and posters from them, and I’m still going strong!

It is a massive blessing to know I don’t have to worry about what my kids will hear or see while watching these guys. You can bet when the DP “Disneyland” opens we will be there! And btw- my kids got the DP sticky tic tac toe and sticky darts for Christmas this past year. We love them! Super fun games!

Won’t lie. I’m a 22 year old Spanish guy, and I’ve always loved Dude Perfect’s videos. The guys just show, in every single way of their working mantra, what this really mean to them. So I’ll always be thankful for having these type of videos. The determination that the 5 guys have, reflects how big they’ve become so that a guy from another country like me can call them friends.

I am so glad to see this team of guys always stay true to who God has created them to be. It is a divine reflection of His character in each of them, and each of us as viewers. To me, there is nothing cooler than Family friendly content, encouragement, and having good clean fun. It never gets old! And if you can squeeze in some friendly rivalry and the lessons that come with it, so be it. But, the relationship with one another and the viewers is very important.
