Fireside Chat with Chuck Schmidt
Join us for an unfiltered, high-octane fireside chat with Chuck Schmidt – "The Crocodile", the Inland Northwest native who turned motorcycles, mayhem, and mischief into a viral lifestyle brand.
Chuck doesn’t follow trends. He builds his own world—and invites you to watch.
From near-failing grades to building million-dollar startups, from designing merch for RiFF RAFF to working with Wiz Khalifa and Trevor Wallace, Chuck’s path has never been straight. In 2024, he launched The Crocodile—a brand rooted in rebellion, humor, and full-send energy. It exploded.
He now commands a global audience with:
92M+ views, 48M more from shares
498,000+ hours of content watched
A growing media brand, a clothing line, future beverage line, and comedy tour in the works
He’s tattooed, talented, and just grounded enough to raise a family while raising hell online.
This is your chance to hear the behind-the-scenes story of how it all came to life—from Idaho garages to viral chaos to global momentum.
