Taking turns confessing embarrassing stories from @cvagolf

Two creators sit side-by-side on a patio, taking turns confessing embarrassing or humorous personal anecdotes. Each confession is prefaced by the catchphrase 'Not proud of it, man enough to say it' accompanied by a raised hand. The stories escalate in absurdity, occasionally supported by image overlays showing the events described, and the video concludes with them reflecting on how therapeutic the exercise feels.

Transcript excerpt

Not proud of it. Man enough to say. I DM'd every single golf chick a video of their swing, and I said it'd be cooler if they didn't use tees. Not proud of it. Man enough to say it. Not proud of it. Man enough to say it. I instigated the jumbo margaritas at Texas Roadhouse last night. Not proud of it. Man enough to say it. After I choked myself out of a million dollars at the Internet invitation, I took down three bottles of Fireball, wrappers snacks, and sat in a motel six in Arkansas. Not proud of it. Man enough to say it. Yeah. It's a really good one. Not proud of it. Man enough to say it. I don't think I'm gonna be able to pay rent this month. Not proud of it. Man enough to say it. There's no judgment. No judgment. Back in college, my ex girlfriend and her friend were making out of my lap, and I passed out out drunk. No proud of it. Man enough to say that one still hurts. Not proud of it. Man enough to say it. I'm trying to create tier for the first time today. No proud of it. Man enough to say it. This is really free. Isn't it nice? Yeah. It really is, though. Like, I do feel bad. It's like therapy.
