From their toys in Walmart to a new streaming app, the group of Tyler Toney, Garrett Hilbert, Cody Jones and twins Coby and Cory Cotton have come a long way.

Been following you for awhile man, one of the the BEST growing youtubers! Keep up the great work man

[ethanyosua]

People need to do more interviews with Dude Perfect

[tbcstratus]

Dude Perfect are probably the only youtubers that have no haters

[carsoncurran]

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.

never realized how smart Coby is until this interview

[YOLOMCM]

I’ve been a fan and a subscriber since 2017 as a 12 year old, about to be 13…now I’m 18, about to be 19, about to graduate high school and community college at the same time in May, and go off to a 4 year college. 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!

[EthanNaresh]

DP was the first ever channel I subscribed to in 2013, and I've been a fan ever since. I even got to play rocket league with Sparky and Ty when they were livestreaming! Thank you, Jon, for the interview. It is rare to get the whole group together. This interview along with HIBT with Guy Raz are my favorite DP episodes!

[heads]

your questions are always so relatble and to the point, great intrviewing skills

[LP_]

Man, I love that these guys openly talk about their faith. Such an amazing thing to see!!!

[PhillyFan]

The best thing about this crew is that you can’t hate anyone, it’s impossible to hate one of them

[niksavitskii]

These guys build their families, friendship, business on solid foundation - Jesus Christ. That's why they so rock solid. You are great example for me guys, I follow the same path. Love ya!

[wangomango]

this is the first interview i’ve seen of Dude Perfect… this is professional. need more content like this from them

[TDCoy]

"Stick Tac Toe" was a missed opportunity

[carys.stephenson]

This was an awesome interview. The set, the editing, the questions - it was incredible all around. So nice to get to see a side of DP that we don't get to see that often. Great work!

[jesusfrk]

Huge DP fans over here! We have seen them live and they do not disappoint. And I echo the sentiment regarding clean content. 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!

[cxryptonic]

One of the best podcasts I’ve listened to. Thank you to both Dude Perfect and Jon for this one! Got to meet them in person during their tour, they are more chill than on video for sure 😂😂😂

[BridalSewing]

So touching, relatable, and exciting for the future. I love the news about their streaming service app. It's nice to see a group that keeps it clean excel so far.

We appreciate your hard work, Jon!

[FamilywithFour]

We absolutely cherish our family time watching dude perfect together. One of the GOAT shows on youtube - the platform wouldn't be the same without them. Thank you for making this video, Jon!

[Yossi]

I love how ty let everyone speak and gave everyone their attention that they need and he was not the only center of attention like he usually is

[masonyancy]

Cory saying he wants to be rid of wheel unfortunate is so hilarious and true for him 😂
