00:02Oh, we rolling?

00:03Yeah.

00:04Oh.

00:05What's up, GQ?

00:06It's Travis Hunter, and this is 10 Things I Can't Live Without.

00:17First essential.

00:22Football.

00:24Hey, this all y'all know me as, but I really like that.

00:27So, I definitely gotta keep the football with me.

00:29Always, at all times, never know when you gotta be ready.

00:31So, I always stay ready.

00:32Football changed my life in many ways.

00:34As you know, I just won the Heisman Trophy, the Blindenkoff, and the Beneric, and a lot

00:39of more awards, but it's too much to say right now.

00:43So, football definitely helped me out in a lot of ways.

00:46I love playing both sides of the ball, because I love being on the football field, but playing

00:49both sides of the ball is definitely stressful.

00:51Hopefully, I get to do it at the next level.

00:52If I don't, at least I'm still at the next level playing football.

00:57Next essential.

01:00Call of Duty.

01:02It's a lot of games though.

01:03I play a lot of different games, but Call of Duty, I've been going crazy lately.

01:06So, I love streaming, playing video games, and I love playing video games with my friends.

01:10So, you know, every time I get a chance to game, I play the game.

01:13If I'm not playing football or fishing, I'm on the video game, playing with my friends,

01:16playing with my brother.

01:17I definitely hate to lose.

01:18I don't like losing when I play the game.

01:19So, when I'm playing Call of Duty or like EA, I be out there trying to dominate.

01:24I don't like to lose, bro.

01:25Snacks.

01:26When I play the video game, need the snacks next to me.

01:31When I go work out, need the snacks with me.

01:34When I go fishing, need the snacks with me.

01:36My favorite snacks is Gummy Bears, almost every Dorito, Jolly Rancher Chews, Snickers, and Reese's.

01:45Hot Chews, Antelix, oatmeal cream pies, Swiss rolls.

01:49I love all the snacks, bro.

01:51I definitely eat a lot of chips and a lot of candy.

01:56But yeah, if it's a snack around me, it's getting eight paws.

02:00I'm going to save these for later.

02:02Got a long drive, so definitely taking these with me.

02:06Hey Dude Wally.

02:08Good for fishing, walking around the house, and walking around the lakes and puns that I'll be able to go into.

02:13So, these Hey Dude Wally's, one of my key essentials, one that I need every day for real.

02:19Because I like to be comfortable all day, every day.

02:21My headphones.

02:25Gotta keep these JLab headphones with me.

02:27As y'all know, I came out with probably like 200 pair.

02:30I love these headphones.

02:31Every pre-game, pretty much everything I do.

02:34When I need headphones, I wear these.

02:35When I'm on a plane, watching movies.

02:37Playing a video game, I use these.

02:39These are my gaming headphones.

02:40If anybody want to know, I use JLab.

02:42The best in the business.

02:43Noise canceling, out this roof.

02:45If y'all think I'm lying, y'all gonna try.

02:47Music I listen to.

02:49Six foot, seven foot.

02:51That's my main, that's my go-to.

02:53I really ain't got no five tracks, bro.

02:55I barely listen to music, bro.

02:57I just watch a lot of YouTube.

02:58We just know how I use these headphones.

03:00I ain't gonna lie.

03:01We watching a lot of movies and shows, bro.

03:03Right now, should I say it?

03:05Can't say it?

03:06Love Island.

03:08Where the shit do I watch?

03:10Landman, Night Agent, Lioness, and Tulsa King.

03:14I watch all of them.

03:16Celsius.

03:19They've been with me since Jackson State.

03:21I love working with them.

03:22And I definitely gotta keep this every day.

03:24It's part of my everyday routine.

03:26It's healthy for me.

03:27And it gives me a boost of energy every day.

03:29Cause you know, I'm a busybody.

03:30So having Celsius with me, great.

03:35Favorite flavor?

03:36This flavor right here, orange.

03:38Adidas.

03:39Gotta keep it with me, man.

03:40This is the most comfortable acleisure wear I ever put on my body.

03:55And the cleats.

03:57You know, but I love my feet.

03:59And the cleats are very comfortable.

04:01And also the shoes.

04:02I love everything about Adidas.

04:03And you see me.

04:04I wrap it every day.

04:05I always got it on.

04:06If I'm being honest.

04:07What made me want to sign with Adidas is,

04:09it's a family organization.

04:11You know, they took me in with open arms.

04:13They went to Portland.

04:14Was able to see everything.

04:15And I, you know, I like the style.

04:17I like how everything fits.

04:19And they also put my brother in a part of my deal.

04:22So definitely had to sign with Adidas.

04:24I got some pants.

04:27Some long sleeve pants.

04:29Even though it's hot.

04:31And I got some workout shorts.

04:33Keep it on me.

04:34And a lot of workout clothes.

04:36I ain't gonna lie.

04:37It's a lot of workout clothes.

04:38Y'all probably don't want to see it.

04:40I don't care, bro.

04:44Fishing.

04:45I ain't got my fishing pose.

04:47But yeah, I love fishing.

04:49That's all I do.

04:50I just got another boat last year.

04:53Yeah, another boat last year for my birthday.

04:56And it's crazy.

04:58I'm about to pick it up tomorrow.

04:59Yeah, fishing is just my piece.

05:00I love to be calm on the lake.

05:02Ripping lips, man.

05:04I love fishing.

05:06My first year of college, I was in one tournament.

05:09It was just probably like $500 to like whatever charity.

05:12But yeah, I want it.

05:13Sometimes I go by myself.

05:15But, you know, whoever want to come out there and go fishing with me,

05:17I let them come out there and go fishing.

05:19I go fishing with Coach Brown sometimes.

05:20But, you know, I'll be whooping and fishing.

05:23Biggest fish I ever caught is actually out of Coach Brown Lake.

05:25It was 12 pounds.

05:26Large mouth bass.

05:27So, he won't be wanting to fish with me like that.

05:34My cell phones.

05:35I got two phones.

05:36And I need them because, you know, business is on these phones.

05:39And for my family to contact me.

05:41So, I'll make sure my ringers are on sometimes.

05:44But they're not really on all the time.

05:48And I need my cell phones for direction because I will get lost.

05:52I be moving around so much.

05:53Sometimes I do leave my phones, but that's something I find.

05:57I need my cell phones for YouTube, bro.

05:59I love watching YouTube.

06:00So, I be needing my phone.

06:02I need to keep my phone with me all the time, bro.

06:03I love watching YouTube.

06:04No matter what I'm doing, I'm always trying to sneak in a couple YouTube videos.

06:07A lot of fishing, a lot of hunting, and a lot of football on my phones too.

06:11So, nah, I'm not gonna lie.

06:13I really only watch myself for real.

06:17Nah, I'm not gonna lie, bro.

06:18I just be watching myself on my phones.

06:20Forbidden on this.

06:21Hey, bro, I'm just conceited, bro.

06:24I'm obsessed with myself.

06:26Don't know about y'all, but I know about me.

06:28I be watching my fishing highlights too.

06:30My next essential, my cameraman.

06:36So, we shoot only...

06:37Nah, I'm playing.

06:38Bruh.

06:40We always keep this camera on us 24-7.

06:43Even if we don't post it, we always keep it just in case we get some good content and we want y'all to see.

06:48Gotta keep my boy around.

06:49He always around.

06:50Y'all just don't see him because he behind the camera.

06:52And that's how he look.

06:53Like a straight bum.

06:55Nah, I'm playing.

06:56I'm like...

06:58I always keep my boy with me, man.

07:00We been playing at work with this camera.

07:01This is a Sony.

07:03Sony A7S III.

07:05Been shooting on this for two years.

07:07Yeah, two years.

07:08We shoot fishing.

07:09We shoot football.

07:10We shoot...

07:11I mean, we shoot everything, to be honest, right?

07:13We've been doing this for a long time.

07:15How does that mean?

07:16Yeah, we...

07:17When he transferred from Jackson over to Colorado, that's where I'm from.

07:21I was just shooting a little event he was at, and he asked me to shoot him a video while I was there.

07:26So I did, and then we've been tapped in since.

07:28So we are getting to RRL Screamin'.

07:30We got the whole set up.

07:31We just...

07:32Ain't feel like doing it.

07:34It's busy, man.

07:35It's busy.

07:36It's a lot.

07:37It's a lot.

07:38Nah, it's definitely a lot.

07:39So we're gonna get it back up and rolling.

07:40So make sure y'all stay tuned for the RRL Screamin'.

07:42My next essential is my glasses, bro.

07:44I can't see anything without these glasses.

07:46Like right now, I don't even know where the camera is.

07:48So I'm gonna put these back on.

07:49But yeah, I can't leave the house without my glasses or contacts.

07:51When I play football, I play with contacts in here.

07:53If y'all want me to get goggles, let me know in the comments.

07:56But yeah, I can't go nowhere.

07:58I can't see anything without glasses.

07:59If I take my glasses off, if I don't have contacts in, my head instantly start hurting.

08:02So gotta have my glasses or contacts in.

08:05Thank you, GQ, for having me.

08:10See y'all next time.

08:11Time to go get some takeaway.

08:14Time to go get some takeaway.
