The trio's bromance began while pursuing sports, as they were Division 1 football players at Montana State University and Montana Tech University.

"We all played football together, so I think that made our transition to being influencers easier," Estes admits. "It's like we're a team, and we have two teammates, so we get to work with each other day in and day out."

"We had a brotherhood built in from being teammates," Estes continues. "And I'd say the advice I like to give groups of friends is just to be loyal to each other with the things they care about. There are many different facets [of friendship], but caring about what they care about matters."
