  • 23:57

  • 24:02

    investor for rent is hilarious. That's the investment. It's an investment in me. Yes. If you need 3K to

  • 24:10

    get your business started, then you got the wrong business. Got a lemonade stand.

  • 24:15

    I don't have selling pencils and getting your business started. No, she just need the ring lights and the and the toys.

  • 24:21

    Oh, there you go. And and let me just take it off uh this young lady for a minute. [ __ ] don't never have that and

  • 24:28

    we got to start this part. [ __ ] don't never have that conversation like when you in a relationship with somebody or

  • 24:33

    got a relationship with somebody and you help her with the business. Do you don't never state the terms, right? No. No

  • 24:40

    corny to do. I think so. Okay. But I think if it's the other way around, they

  • 24:46

    women but women take the terms though. That can't be corny. I see women terms. If I give you a 100 grand to start your

  • 24:52

    nail salon, your nail salon get to rocking in year three bringing in 600 grand a year. I'm not supposed to Oh,

  • 24:58

    okay. What's the relation? I was about to say, what kind of relation this with your lady?

  • 25:04

    Uh, does it matter? Yes.

  • 25:09

    Tell me more. I don't know if it does. I don't think it does either. What do you mean? If you're in a relationship and

  • 25:14

    you invest in your girl, you you're investing in y'all. You're not investing in her. You investing in your That's not

  • 25:21

    that that ain't necessarily true. That's not true. That's not true. That's not your wife. If that's just your girlfriend, then that's a whole

  • 25:27

    different conversation. Your wife is different. If this a relationship is going to end and you need some terms, but if it's your

  • 25:35

    think No, no. But I'm saying if you dating somebody that you know ain't it, I'm saying I'm writing some terms. Me

  • 25:42

    either. But if I do, I'm writing the terms. I might do it with my wife if she want to do some business. But Mark, even if you notice it, a lot of we see a

  • 25:48

    situations where [ __ ] you in a situation you you get a beauty salon and [ __ ] you on the outs. It ain't nothing

  • 25:53

    wrong with it happens. I tell people get turn. Yeah. I don't know if I've seen that [ __ ] all the time, dog. Time out.

  • 26:01

    Time out. Cuz now you're fronting. Time out. Because I had a situation where a [ __ ] wanted to borrow some money from

  • 26:06

    me and I told a [ __ ] to put me on the deed at his house and you castrated me for it. Yeah, I remember. You castrated

  • 26:12

    me for who? So you the the person that you lay with that you have raw sex. Let me

  • 26:18

    finish please. The person that you lay with that you have raw sex with you when

  • 26:23

    you you'll write some terms for them but your man or somebody else that want to borrow some money 100 grand. It was I

  • 26:29

    think he was I think it was right terms for Antoine you are misrepresenting what my point was in that earlier

  • 26:34

    conversation. So let me tell it to you. The first premise was your man was in a bind and needed 100 grand. Your friend

  • 26:41

    was in a bind and needed 100 grand. Okay, that's a friend in a buying. I'm talking business. I'm not talking about

  • 26:47

    somebody you love being in a hard spot. If if any one of my friends in a hard spot, they can come to me and get the

  • 26:52

    money, no questions asked. If you come to me and say, "I need a hundred grand for my business proposal, I'm going to

  • 26:58

    do the same thing that the bank do and ask about the [ __ ] business and state my terms." That's not the same at all.

  • 27:04

    It's not the same at all. Let's start the [ __ ] you know. I know. I have way crazy. I kind of think it is. I think we

  • 27:10

    should start and get I think we should start and get back to the same level. I kind of see where you at, though. Y'all

  • 27:15

    got it. I I Well, listen. Be clear. There's no right or wrong here. It's just what you would do. The situation. I

  • 27:21

    I I see a I see I see your point. I see the difference. There is a difference. But I think y'all were wrong to follow

  • 27:27

    him about that cuz at the time his point was cuz I I heard that when it was like, look, it's relation to how much money

  • 27:33

    you have. Like I can't afford it. I can't afford to just give somebody 100 grand because if they if they if they don't ever pay it back, I'm [ __ ] up.

  • 27:39

    Being to me being on the deed is somebody that guy wasn't included in the premise. The guy that can't afford to do

  • 27:45

    it is not wasn't in the conversation. This was somebody can't afford to lose it. Okay. Like you might, you saying

  • 27:51

    you've got it, but like I I can't afford to get it. I'mma feel it if I don't get it. Cuz y'all was saying you can afford

  • 27:56

    that. He was saying the hundred to me might be like a million to you or or to whatever think. You know what I'm saying? So, so, so, so yeah, like if

  • 28:02

    somebody borrow somebody asked me right now for your state terms don't change that then but that's the security that

  • 28:08

    he said but being on the deed is the why I'm staying terms that's why I want to be on your deed terms all of that's fine

  • 28:13

    and dandy but if a [ __ ] take that 100 grand and go blow it then you're in the same boat you sell your house no you're

  • 28:20

    not how not so because the collateral that you put up is my my recourse right the house the house him being on a deed

  • 28:26

    you go blow that money I still can go wait an asset about his man's an example. He was he was saying before

  • 28:33

    he remember he said I I will put I would give you the money but I'd put my name on your DDA house and y'all would kill it as collateral. That's some example

  • 28:40

    that fits what he's saying in that I agree. And what I'm saying the person that's your friend don't have a house.

  • 28:46

    You don't have the scenario that we were talking about. The person had a house. The scenario that we were talking about

  • 28:52

    that happened on this show. The person had a house and I said I needed my name to be on a deed and you said what? What?

  • 28:58

    You put your Yes, I I don't recall it that way. And in that in that I would agree. I don't remember that. I'd have to go listen to it. But in that, all

  • 29:04

    right, that would be your terms. I'm talking about a [ __ ] that's your man is just coming to you to need some money.

  • 29:10

    He don't have nothing. That's probably why he's coming to you for some money. But think about I'm not stating terms to

  • 29:15

    that person that's in a time of need. Are you going to ask when you going to get it back? No. You know, I ask that

  • 29:20

    question. What if it's a million dollar? But what if it's a million dollars? If that's a million dollars, that's out of

  • 29:25

    my tax bracket. I don't I don't have an ancillary million dollars to loan someone. That's not I'm not in that. And

  • 29:30

    and that's there's there's a number where like you can afford to give it, but you can't afford to eat it if he if you never get it back. And I think

  • 29:36

    that's what the terms are for. Just like with me for me, it's the same thing with the business. Like if it's my wife, I'm not First of all, ain't no dude giving

  • 29:43

    his wife no terms for no money to give her. If they say that they lying, they they That's what they just said. Yeah, I know. I don't believe it. Yeah, but if

  • 29:50

    it's somebody, yeah, you worried about what happens if it if it blows up or what happens if it don't

  • 29:56

    work. Either way, if it blows up and you leave me or if it don't work, I can't afford to eat $100. Yo, I kind of don't

  • 30:01

    even care if it blow up. I just want my money back. If I loan you 100 grand and you make $5 million off of that. You

  • 30:08

    don't want You don't want none of it. I don't necessarily have to get that. If it's a stranger, Yeah. But if it's

  • 30:13

    somebody that I [ __ ] with, I just want my money back. Take my money back. Take the word wife out of it. And does your does your stance change

  • 30:21

    if if it's a woman that I'm just dealing with and [ __ ] with? Yeah. It don't change it. It it Wait, what? It all comes You

  • 30:28

    said take my question. You mean like if it's like my girlfriend, like a long-term girlfriend? You mean Yeah. It don't change. It don't change. It don't

  • 30:34

    change for me. Don't change for me. It don't change for me. I I feel a lot more courageous asking for them terms, but I don't know if I would but I don't know

  • 30:39

    if I would do it. All right. Let me Let me ask you Let me ask you. So, what's your stance on like putting a putting

  • 30:46

    your if your significant other wanted to go to school or something?

  • 30:52

    It's a good question. What's your stance on that? That's different to me. No. Why? It's not different. It's still It's still an investment. It's still an

  • 30:57

    investment. You're investing in them. You put them through medical school. You're investing in them. Now, they go and become a doctor. Uhhuh. And they

  • 31:04

    making whatever much a year. Uh-huh. But they leave you. Yep. It's the same thing. The same exact I don't look at

  • 31:11

    the same way. I don't do it. Okay. I don't look at it the same way. It's the same. It's not to me. But you're

  • 31:16

    investing in their business the exact same way. It's not the same. It's not the same. I don't I don't look at it the same either. Yeah. Okay.

  • 31:24

  • 36:41

    Not up here. No. You [ __ ] on spaces or something, man. Flip. Didn't I say it right there? You did. You did. Spaces.

  • 36:47

    Flip and money. You heard it. Spaces. space. Yeah, they don't make the allegations yet, but

  • 36:52

    we sit right there. But it's all good. It's all good. It's all good. Well, is there anything you want to say to the new audience that we've acquired in the

  • 36:58

    last few weeks? The your uh Oxford Academy, your your educators and Kev on

  • 37:04

    stage? I got like I got nothing. Anything you want to say to them? Cuz they they don't seem to be

  • 37:10

    leaving either. I got nothing. All right. I got nothing. Big Parks is in the building.

  • 37:16

    What's Po is in the building. Cory's here, Ian here, Ke is here, Erikson is here. There's too many people here to

  • 37:22

    name. Uh, this broadcast is brought to you by, fueled by, powered by Prize Pitch. Prize Pitch

  • 37:28

    Gang. And before we go any further, oh,

  • 37:33

    clear out. Boy, it was a lot of chitchat from the

  • 37:39

    experts, the analysts, the retired NBA players. Oh, okay. Here

  • 37:45

    we go. I got to do a part. Yeah, you got to know. I was going to I was going to call Jerry Jack

  • 37:52

    still just to see what you pissing [ __ ] is up to. But uh yeah, everybody

  • 37:58

    on ESPN and FS1 and anybody with a microphone, the conversation seemed to

  • 38:05

    be what what had the greater odds, the Knicks getting swept or this going to six? I thought

  • 38:14

    that was offensive. I did uh Brian

  • 38:20

    Winhurst, he said the Nick Shoe, and I quote, a ticker tape parade, if this

  • 38:26

    indeed gets to six games. Y'all were talking like the Celtics were the 96

  • 38:32

    Bulls, the 2017 Kevin Durant Warriors, whatever year that was. Y'all was

  • 38:37

    talking like these was just And it is a great team. Really expensive team. Can't wait

  • 38:45

    for them to break up after this year. Wow, it's awesome. But all we did is go

  • 38:53

    into your building, get down by 20. I turned the

  • 39:01

    game off. I was tight. That was that was I was tight when I went on Twitter at the other night. Let y'all take every three in the world. Let y'all grab every

  • 39:08

    long offensive rebound to clang off the front of the rim. let y'all get us in

  • 39:13

    foul trouble. Let y'all get call Anthony. I'm not even going to call him that cuz he was straight cap for most of

  • 39:19

    the game. The best ability is availability. And he wasn't even on the floor. We let y'all do all of that only

  • 39:26

    to come back and steal game one. And still the next day they don't say, "Hey,

  • 39:33

    go Knicks for stealing game one." They say the Celtics gave it to you. They did. You disagree?

  • 39:40

    Thanks. So, thanks. That's true. Thanks. I mean, you win is a win. You can't you

  • 39:46

    can't give me something uh if I don't extend my hand out, but I'll take it. I got to do my job and you giving me something. Yes, they blew it. And he

  • 39:54

    literally took it. The Celtics blew it. Yeah. Okay. Also, Jaylen Brunson is the

  • 39:59

    NBA's clutch player of the year for a reason. So, in the event that this game gets close in the fourth quarter, you

  • 40:06

    feel good. We have some Yeah. and say what you want. Them Celtic n them Celtic [ __ ] is injured and danged up. Get

  • 40:13

    these old ass [ __ ] the [ __ ] out of the building as he now I'm done talking nice. I don't want to talk stats no

  • 40:20

    more. Shayla Brown, James Brown, Antonio

  • 40:25

    Brown, Bobby Brown. Round up the [ __ ] Browns. Knicks at six, [ __ ] I ain't

  • 40:30

    talking stats no more. The [ __ ] is you talking about? You really think the Knicks going to win the series, huh? You really think the Knicks going to win the

  • 40:36

    series? Who knows? cuz he you know the next question is going to be a bet.

  • 40:42

    Zire hit me immediately. Yo, I still got the Celtics. You want to bet? I got the Celtics. No, [ __ ] Get off my phone.

  • 40:49

    Cuz you know goddamn well the Knicks ain't going to win this series. I don't know that. What I saw last night was a

  • 40:55

    dinged up a dinged up Boston. Porzingis left early. Drew Holiday for as great of

  • 41:01

    a defender as he was on Jaylen Brunson. He wasn't himself. He wasn't

  • 41:06

    himself. Uh Jason Tatum, I think a large reason for the Celtics making a jump this year is his consistency and his

  • 41:14

    superstar role. Yep. If he's going to go back to being inconsistent like last night.

  • 41:20

    And if Jaylen Brown and them [ __ ] are going to act like it's just a cakewalk or read your own press clippings, then

  • 41:25

    yeah, [ __ ] Nick's in six. Nicks in six. I think the [ __ ] is we talking about? I think you're overthinking it. I

  • 41:31

    think I think the Celtics played the worst game they could possibly play. So did the Knicks. That's the worst coaching of the worst coaching. And and

  • 41:37

    and so did the Knicks. And you still need overtime to win. I think we didn't need overtime to win. That little layup

  • 41:42

    at the end of the game is a make 99% of the time. Stop it. That's Don't be stupid. That's not That

  • 41:48

    doesn't If he made what he missed. Well, yeah. If the Celtics made the threes that they I mean, all I'm saying is the Celtics are a better team. I also don't

  • 41:54

    say you need overtime to win if you come back from however much they want. I'm just saying I'm just saying is

  • 42:00

    difficult. It's hard to match again is all I'm I don't think the Celtics going to play that bad again. And I don't think y'all have the the talent to beat

  • 42:06

    them in in six or seven games. Hey. Hey buddy, it's the Celtics that are in a must-win situation right now. This talk

  • 42:12

    doesn't align with that. Here's another piece of it. Are you going to the Knicks games? Game three. Oh yeah. Celtics. You

  • 42:19

    should say, "Oh, man. Celtics in five or six." Now in the back. You ain't won a game. They ain't won a game. Y'all

  • 42:25

    couldn't be Rice High School right now. Would you [ __ ] don't do that to write,

  • 42:31

    man? No, I don't want to hear all that [ __ ] I don't want to hear all that [ __ ] right now. We up 10. Must win for the

  • 42:36

    Celtics. Hey, and that building sounded a little nicky last night. Sounded a

  • 42:41

    little nicky last night. Yeah. Fix your [ __ ] faces. We're in New York. What's

  • 42:48

    up? I'm down, [ __ ] What's up? I'm with you. We won. [ __ ] is wrong with you [ __ ] keep that

  • 42:54

    same energy at game four, game five when y'all down three to one. He won't. And when they and when they go out 4-1, he going to be like, "Yo, we ain't even

  • 43:01

    look forward to winning." I said in the beginning that we wasn't going to win. We do rebuilding blah blah blah blah

  • 43:07

    blah. That's exactly what he going to say. [ __ ] ass boy. That's exactly. What them [ __ ] been a

  • 43:12

    puss boy? [ __ ] have a boy. They don't say they don't say [ __ ] puss boy. Yeah, we a we don't want to hear none of that

  • 43:18

    [ __ ] One nothing. Indeed. You dropped the ball later. Done. That's it. You're done. That's it. I ain't even going to

  • 43:24

    DM Tatum. We talking before the game. [ __ ] that, [ __ ] Now, don't do that. Don't Don't do it. Please do it. Talk

  • 43:31

    [ __ ] Talk crazy to him. No, no, no, no, no. Leave that one alone. I blew my

  • 43:37

    prospects back yesterday. Don't talk crazy. [ __ ] There's nothing much to say. Lose spanky. Go Knicks. What a win.

  • 43:46

    Feels great to be up one nothing with the Celtics in a must-win situation. And then Nick Nick's up two next game. 200

  • 43:54

    next game. Since they want to be soft. I felt like such a [ __ ] Since they want to be soft about it. I turned on that

  • 43:59

    game and saw the score and I was like, "Fuck, I guess we watch the Met Gala." Yeah.

  • 44:05

    Let me go look at the gowns. I put the I put the game on the phone. Congratulations to the Knicks. I'm

  • 44:11

    certain that we'll talk about this uh a little later on. Oh, for sure. Uh where do you guys where would you guys like to

  • 44:16

    begin? We can start with the Mega Gal if you want. I see you were in your fashionista bag last night. You know I was going to be

  • 44:22

    in my fashionista bag. Your story I felt bad for you cuz I was like I wish Shade was here cuz that was like my favorite [ __ ] in the world is sitting around with

  • 44:29

    my girl who is the nicest human being I think I've ever met in my life and just [ __ ] on people for three straight

  • 44:34

    hours. Even though a lot of people were super fly but the people that weren't Yeah. they were getting it. Yeah. I have

  • 44:41

    to say man well actually I won't start. How's it Did any did anybody else see some of the outfits some of the red

  • 44:47

    carpet? Mhm. I saw we saw some of the outfits. Yes. 79% of white people looked

  • 44:52

    a mess. Yeah. It seemed like they didn't really get what the theme was. They thought that What was the theme? The

  • 44:58

    theme was super fine. Dandism. Dandism. But the the theme it was called black

  • 45:04

    tailored fly [ __ ] Yeah. And old to suits

  • 45:10

    and ties and just and tailorism. Got you. Black the fly [ __ ] Yeah. So I think

  • 45:18

    that when they heard super fine, you know, um, you know, black tailoring, they just thought black. They thought

  • 45:25

    the stitching itself should be black. And it's like, you know, that's not what they meant. Yeah, it was bad. 79% of

  • 45:32

    white people looked an absolute mess. Who are some of the ones that look the worst? So, well, first it was co-chared.

  • 45:40

    It had four co-chairs. It was ASAP Rocky, Lewis Hamilton, um Coleman Domingo, and um and Farel, and all four

  • 45:48

    of them looked incredible in in all their, you know, various different ways. Like, um Coleman Domingo's first outfit

  • 45:54

    was like a nod to Lewis Hamilton [ __ ] was fire. It was. Are we not going to talk about people that we thought didn't

  • 46:00

    nail it? Let's absolutely [ __ ] on a thousand%. We'll [ __ ] on nail it. Forel

  • 46:07

    didn't nail it. I didn't like the people that Forel dress like Doi. I love Doi. I didn't like the way I thought Louisie

  • 46:12

    had an amazing night. So, I'm not [ __ ] on them. I'm just talking about Forel specifically with the 10,000 pearl

  • 46:19

    20,000 pearl blazer. Superfly. I just don't think it did what it needed to do

  • 46:24

    in pictures. It was very calm in pictures and I just

  • 46:30

    Oh, I see. I'm looking at it now. Yeah. Yeah. I like it. But I like it too. Actually, I like it. I like The

  • 46:37

    thing is I think that it translated it probably translate translated a lot better in person. Um like he's like the

  • 46:43

    creative ambassador for Louis Vuitton. Um so Zenaia who was one of the best

  • 46:49

    dressed on that carpet. Oh, I disagree. What? She she's usually way better dressed than she was last night. But it

  • 46:54

    but she re she that was literally the theme. That was it. You know, she had like a Louis Vuitton tailored zoot suit.

  • 47:02

    That [ __ ] was [ __ ] incredible. But there's a difference, I think, between nailing the theme and looking like

  • 47:07

    spectacular. And she looked great. Like she always looks great. But I I guess agree to disagree. I thought she looked spectacular. Well, she I thought she

  • 47:14

    nailed the theme and looked spectacular. Zena. Yes. Yes. Diana Ross is another

  • 47:19

    one that shut down the car show, massive train, and it had the names of her children and grandchildren embroidered

  • 47:25

    on it. Um Rihanna of course shut down the carpet. Soft launching baby number

  • 47:31

    three. Congratulations. And a Mark Jacob outfit and just she killed it as well.

  • 47:36

    Mar Jacobs had a good night. I mean, Mar Jacobs had a real good night, too. He He really did. What do you think of Coleman Domingo?

  • 47:41

    I Yeah, he wore he wore several though. Okay. So, the first one was a nod to um

  • 47:47

    uh Andre Leon Thally, the the big, you know, the electric. Yeah. The purple

  • 47:52

    blue, whatever color that was, the shawl, the long over the ornate. I want to say that that was Valentino. Oh, that

  • 47:59

    first look was Valentino. Okay. And that second look I You didn't ask me. He killed both those looks. The second look

  • 48:05

    was Valentino, too. The great the great you talking about the gray with the J. That was the flying [ __ ] The black and white [ __ ] with that. Absolutely fire.

  • 48:13

    That was Valentino. That [ __ ] look crazy. I think that also I think that everybody that did the the two look

  • 48:20

    thing crushed like uh like Domingo uh dancing Idris when he came out in the

  • 48:27

    race car [ __ ] The [ __ ] underneath it was at first I was like, "What is this bullshit?" And then once he took the [ __ ] off, that

  • 48:33

    suit underneath was fire. Damn. No, I got to find out who that was. Um, Tessa Thompson was another actress that really

  • 48:39

    killed it. She looked great. She looked incredible. And I really like Doi's outfit. Cardi, I didn't care for that.

  • 48:45

    Cardi inspired me. Carrie Washington. I like I love Carrie Washington. Um, uh, Janelle Monae, but she, you know, it's

  • 48:52

    [ __ ] was super simple, but I liked it. Yeah. Who was Usher wearing? Uh, pull

  • 48:58

    uh, Ralph Lauren. Ralph Lauren, which is probably I thought Burberry had uh, I thought Burberry had one of the best

  • 49:05

    nights. Uh, I'm not gonna let y'all just smooth over Cardi like that. That was a Burberry look. Amazing. Cardi looked

  • 49:11

    incredible. She did. Um, if I'm not mistaken, her manicure took

  • 49:17

    like two [ __ ] days. God damn. Yeah. Like I mean it it it's at least six

  • 49:22

    figures per outfit. Like that's how like that's just the whole production for each person that goes there, you know.

  • 49:28

    Um Jodie Turner Smith was my look of the night. She was Burberry also. She looked

  • 49:34

    great. The burgundy Jodie Turner Smith and Tiana

  • 49:40

    Taylor. Oh, Tiana. I also we that's what we were watching was the Vogue stream which was Tiana and I can't remember the

  • 49:47

    SNL actress's name and LA and it was great. Yeah, Tiana Taylor is a [ __ ]

  • 49:53

    Tiana Taylor was natural at this [ __ ] She is um she was dressed by Ruth Carter. Exactly. Who's like an

  • 49:59

    Oscarinning um costume designer. Exactly. Like from Black Panther and a myriad of other films, but Tiana Taylor,

  • 50:06

    I love the outfit. Love Tiana Taylor probably has to get outfit of the night for me because of the duality, right?

  • 50:13

    Like with the theme being fly men suit tailoring and all that. She did that to

  • 50:18

    a tea. Uh, but the heel was feminine. I want to say that was Marc Jacobs. Uh,

  • 50:25

    the do-rag under the [ __ ] under the hat, the layers, the texture. She

  • 50:32

    absolutely smoked it. I expected nothing less from Tiana Taylor. Uh, and again, great host. Big Harlem. Great great

  • 50:37

    host. Big Harlem. Big T. Uh, who else I want to talk about?

  • 50:43

    Uh, Lewis Hamilton. Lewis Hamilton. Uh Louis was in was in Wales Bonner.

  • 50:53

    Wales Bonner. That look, that clean aesthetic. That hat. That hat. Oh my

  • 51:00

    god. Yeah. Parks your boy. Um Bad Bunny. He He looked crazy. Incredible. He

  • 51:05

    smoked. He went crazy. That hat I want to say that he was Prada. I know. Yes,

  • 51:10

    it was Prada. I believe I want to say that was Prada. Bad Bunny looked amazing. that that custom uh custom hat

  • 51:17

    that they put on him which was like a traditional Puerto Rican hat thing kind of goes in the theme with the album he's

  • 51:23

    doing and the tour he's doing and the bag smoked a lot of people I thought uh went wrong in their choice of bag I

  • 51:29

    don't recall who it was but somebody had a briefcase of roses I didn't think that was necessary uh some of the bags were just off but that bad bunny bag oh was

  • 51:36

    that a bag on uh the back of Andre 3000 shaped like a piano I thought we were going to hold that one off to the end I

  • 51:42

    just I was talking we'll save I just wonder whether Okay, we'll save that for later. But um

  • 51:48

    yeah, the a lot of the outfits that we're describing, they were like that was it was really sensational and they

  • 51:53

    really stayed on theme and it was such it's a dramatic turn from the people who

  • 51:59

    didn't stay on theme. I think the men were smoking the women's boots a little bit. I would agree with you. I would agree with you a lot. Which I guess the

  • 52:04

    theme lends it to it. Yeah. I mean like the whole you know dandy choir that was

  • 52:11

    really interesting you know haven't really still settled on how I felt about

  • 52:17

    it. Wait a dandy choir? Yeah. You didn't see the choir of um black men singing?

  • 52:23

    Yeah. Yeah. What do you mean you don't know how you felt about it? Um I guess it was kind of it was in

  • 52:31

    theme but then it also kind of I don't know. It almost had like

  • 52:36

    a I don't know like a like a like a I don't know. No. Yeah.

  • 52:44

    What? No, I'm I'm just I'm trying to find the words. I'll I'll I'll find the words, but it just had this like kind

  • 52:49

    of haunting kind of quality to it. I don't know if that's the right word, but

  • 52:55

    I think so. It looked It looked jack and jealous to me. All right. Neither one of y'all will be

  • 53:01

    delegations. Ain't no mountain.

  • 53:06

    Let's go. That was scary. That was scary to you,

  • 53:12

    man. No,

  • 53:18

    y'all. What? Just be aware. No, I'm I'm

  • 53:23

    not saying anything bad about it. I thought that they I thought it was great and I loved the uniformity of their

  • 53:28

    outfits. I loved all of it, but it just kind of like had a haunting quality. And I don't know if it's because I'm thinking about the history of dandism

  • 53:34

    like the original like the history as far back as it goes that that was what they were trying to convey or maybe

  • 53:40

    that's just something I was picking up on. I think what is the history of dandy? If I'm not mistaken the history

  • 53:47

    of dandism the original like the origin point is like slave masters were bored

  • 53:53

    as [ __ ] and like to dress up their slaves in their clothes. I don't know if you're doing anything. Okay. I don't I don't know. I can't comment on it. Okay.

  • 54:00

    I somebody can correct me, but if I'm not mistaken, this is something that I read somewhere. Black dandism sort of it

  • 54:06

    Yeah, that's not wrong. It's I mean dandism goes before slavery in a certain way and the stylized figure, but the

  • 54:12

    black dand is like an interesting person because of how he got stylized during slavery, but also after like when black people could buy their own clothes, we

  • 54:18

    got fly as [ __ ] Yes. To me, but and it was also reflective of just how much

  • 54:23

    economic um you know, security and power we had during after slavery, which was

  • 54:29

    which we were robbed of. Yeah. You know, black dandism is a cultural practice in a form of self-expression where black

  • 54:35

    individuals, particularly men, use fashion and personal style as a tool for resistance, identity negotiation, and a

  • 54:42

    challenging societal norms. Mhm. It's just not about dressing well, but also about using siral choices to assert

  • 54:49

    agency, reclaim narratives, and push back against negative stereotypes. Exactly. Exactly. Reclaiming the

  • 54:55

    narrative is the the origin point and then the fact that they continue to do it. My my point was it kind of resembles

  • 55:02

    um a little Jack and Jill. You know, Jack and Jill. Yeah. Right. And um I

  • 55:07

    guess maybe it's in line. You know what Jack and Jill is, right? Jack and Jill is like Jack and Jill is like a a

  • 55:14

    wealthy black organization and um they have catillions and balls and such and

  • 55:20

    so that's what I attributed it to. You know what I'm saying? As opposed to something haunting. I looked at it like

  • 55:26

    it was almost a old to that. Yeah, that's maybe I still got sinners on the

  • 55:31

    brain where I'm thinking about like you know just like the historical context of what we watched, you know. I feel you.

  • 55:38

    Yeah, that I guess I just still have cinders on that. I think that's the beauty of it, right? Like, you know, we we got it's art and it's up to interpretation. Yeah, for sure. And we

  • 55:45

    to me it just reminded me all those moments with black people who thought history got fly when we could cuz a lot of time what happens after slavery they were saying why are these black people

  • 55:50

    spending their money on clothes? Exactly. And it was like well because when we were in slave we couldn't wear what we wanted. Right. So why would why

  • 55:57

    would they buy these parasols? That was one of the big why would they wear paras cuz white women were wearing them and we had to take care of these white women

  • 56:03

    and now we can dress ourselves use our money for our thing and we got flat but we look way flatter than they ever did. So when I saw last night, that's what it

  • 56:08

    reminded me of. It's like a re a rebellion against stereotypes. So, you know, that's what Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. Absolutely. And a couple a

  • 56:15

    lot of people like um couples, it was their date night, so they dressed similarly like uh just real quick, just

  • 56:22

    real quick. I know. I know. I know. I see if cuz we can't make that all that

  • 56:28

    slavery dandism point and just move on to couples. I don't think I I understand

  • 56:34

    what you're saying for most people having watched the Met Gala throughout the years. Mhm. It's white as [ __ ]

  • 56:41

    Yeah, I was about to say that too. Like it's another one of those events where [ __ ] in years past it's felt haunting

  • 56:49

    for me looking at how white it is, what some of the oldfashioned houses stood for and how they parade out black

  • 56:56

    entertainers as if we're dog and pony. So I'm I'm with you there. This year I

  • 57:02

    didn't tend to I didn't feel like doing the deepest of dives. It felt great that

  • 57:07

    that [ __ ] was ultra black. Yes. Extra black. It look great. Everywhere you

  • 57:13

    turn beautiful black glowing glistening skin, lthered skin,

  • 57:22

    hairing the extra pieces. [ __ ] was on their coming to America bag on this day.

  • 57:28

    Everywhere you turn, it was just black people looking beautiful. The choir, uh,

  • 57:34

    I thought was a great touch. Me, too. I felt like somebody asked the black person, "Hey, what should we do here to

  • 57:41

    make this extra black? Go get a [ __ ] choir and have them sing Wade in the water." Listen, we've seen pictures in

  • 57:47

    the past, not a lot, but we've seen pictures of some of the food they they have eaten in the Matt Gala. This year

  • 57:53

    was the first year it felt like collard greens was in there. Yeah. This year is the very first year where it felt like,

  • 57:59

    "Oh [ __ ] them [ __ ] is going to eat turkey wings and [ __ ] just mad black food." Like that was great. Yeah. People

  • 58:08

    that are and and the food was from Red Rooster. No, wasn't it um Chefwame?

  • 58:15

    I don't know if Chefw. Chefwami I thought it looked great, too. I think he was the chef. I could be wrong about that, but Tiana mentioned that. Let's

  • 58:21

    go. So, turn it up. Tiana mentioned that. Come on, man. I could be mistaken.

  • 58:26

    I would have thought Melba was in there chefing it up. ChefWami, perfect choice. Hey,

  • 58:35

    that's where I was on Saturday. Sorry. I mean, I I said I went to dinner. I just didn't want to say where

    The wetslet was go ahead. No, go ahead. I

  • 59:29

    was going to ask you, was that on your bucket list? Uh, what? Matt Gala. No, that's not for me. If they invited,

  • 59:35

    would you go? Yes. Who Who asked me? Anna Winter. I

  • 59:40

    was going to ask you guys. Anna Winter asks you to go to the Met Gala. No, I

  • 59:45

    meant like Oh, which designer? What fashion house? Marc Jacobs.

  • 59:51

  • 1:00:06

    Who's the designer that would make you most likely to say yes? Um, it was Valencia asked you. That's what I was

  • 1:00:12

    thinking. No. Uh, no. And I want to shout out Fear of God. See, that's what made me think of it. I forgot who that

  • 1:00:18

    was that I saw rocking the Fear God. It looked great. A great Fear God look at

  • 1:00:24

    the Met Gala. Yeah. However, as much as I love Fear God is one of my favorite brands, I'm not certain that I would

  • 1:00:31

    show up to the Met Gala if Fear of God asked me because I'm not showing up in this

  • 1:00:36

    environment with this aesthetic. This aesthetic fits you more than it fits me.

  • 1:00:42

    Well, I guess it depends on what the theme would be. I thought Tom Brown had a night too, by the way. He did. Oh,

  • 1:00:47

    yeah. Tom Brown is uh Janelle Monae. Uh Tom Brown was that one. I would I would

  • 1:00:53

    have rescended my I didn't like Janelle Monet's really square. But what about

  • 1:00:58

    the look underneath it? Better. I I thought she ate. What's that? Um what's

  • 1:01:04

    that little uh Monica? Yeah, I love that touch. I thought Savannah James went

  • 1:01:09

    crazy. She did. She went absolutely. It depends on who asked me. And I got like

  • 1:01:15

    I got an invite to go to some of the Met Gala after parties last night and not my it was raining.

  • 1:01:21

    Them [ __ ] was going to be there looking as beautiful as could be. I was going to be there and

  • 1:01:26

    [ __ ] looking ashy in the corner. No shape up. No fresh baldy. Yeah. No. No.

    I'm cool. I'm cool on that. My days are being a dusty [ __ ] in the corner in the

  • 1:01:39

    club. Those days are over. Yeah. Well, it was clear that um the the

  • 1:01:44

    four co- uh co-chairs, they really let them run the show. Yeah, that was clear.

  • 1:01:49

    So, it was that it was it was really dope. It was really dope. And like I was saying, date night for Swiss and Alicia.

  • 1:01:56

    They wear, you know, outfits that looked Yeah. Exactly. The carpet The carpet design was fire, too. Mhm. Yeah, it was.

  • 1:02:02

  • 1:02:26

    what you think about what y'all think about uh Future? Cut his hair. Future. Was that Chanel? Chanel had a big night,

  • 1:02:33

    too. Louie. That was Lou. I did not care for Future. Louis had a night. Let me

  • 1:02:38

    look. He look Louis Chanel, Burberry, Tom Brown. For me,

  • 1:02:45

    that was the night. So, who looked bad? I would put too much positivity up here.

  • 1:02:51

    I would put Future in that bag. He looked like he was in bag. Oh, I'm looking at future. Yeah, I did. I was

  • 1:02:58

    not a fan of Chapel um Chapel Bronze outfit. She just It looked like a continuation of what she wore at the

  • 1:03:04

    Grammys. Well, basically what she wears on what she wears. So who a chapel ran

  • 1:03:09

    do the girl that cleaned up at the Grammys and and had that and had that really great speech. She um just she's

  • 1:03:15

    mad colorful and sequins and stuff. She didn't really look a message. Just it just didn't seem like on brand on theme

  • 1:03:20

    whatsoever. It just looked like a continuation of what she consistently wears for her stage performances and

  • 1:03:26

    stuff like that. So I just wasn't impressed with her. Um, if we're talking about people who just didn't do the

  • 1:03:33

    theme but maybe looked amazing, Sydney Sweeney,

  • 1:03:38

    I don't know. She She looked great. The big She got the big dough eyes and the nice boots and [ __ ] like that. Little

  • 1:03:44

    white girl. Yeah. Beautiful dress. You beautiful gowns as you know Artha Franklin would have said, but I don't

  • 1:03:50

    see another white person that just thought let's wear black. Yeah. Yeah. That's that's what Kim did. She just

  • 1:03:56

    wore black. Okay. Yeah, that was Whoa. Slow down. I didn't I didn't like it. She didn't just wear black. That was

  • 1:04:02

    custom chrome hearts. Fair. Fair. Fair. Uh it was a statement on in that

  • 1:04:08

    environment to wear custom chrome hearts. Uh San her accessories. I love

  • 1:04:14

    the hat. I'm not going to say I necessarily love the look cuz I'm not a big chrome hearts guy, but I love that

  • 1:04:19

    Kim is always the one to make a statement like Lady Gaga used to do at the [ __ ] uh like I like the celebrity

  • 1:04:25

    the make a statement celebrity. You should try something different. I just didn't She should try something different because she has been doing

  • 1:04:32

    that silhouette look forever and ever and ever. It's tired. That hat was It

  • 1:04:38

    was a nice hat, but not for that. Like, hey, let's just let's just throw a [ __ ] fedora on. No, that wasn't just

  • 1:04:44

    a fedora. It was not that [ __ ] creative that look. And then ass on display. Whoa. News at [ __ ]

    background. Listen, she's a beautiful girl with a beautiful body. We always [ __ ] see it looking exactly the

  • 1:05:03

    [ __ ] same. She did nothing to wow

  • 1:05:08

    anybody as far as I'm concerned. Like, it was it was boring, basic, and and not even Do y'all have history?

  • 1:05:15

    [Music] You did turn it up a notch. I was like, damn. Not really. I didn't I didn't like the outfit either, but Oh, that's not

  • 1:05:21

    true. I'm I can't critique without being personal. But do y'all have a history is all I'm asking. I wouldn't say that.

  • 1:05:27

    Yeah. That's not enough. Have you ever met? Yes. Have you ever

  • 1:05:33

    been in the same party? Yes. We've been in the same country. Yes. Haiti. Well, you're in the same country now. Been to

  • 1:05:39

    Haiti, [ __ ] I remember that. Wait, huh? You both live in America. What the hell you talking about? We Americans. She was in Haiti together with with

  • 1:05:45

    them. Mhm. And you know, are you gonna say it? So Ford and Kim K. You want me

  • 1:05:51

    to say it or you gonna say it or you want to move on? You know the T flip? I do. Flip. I'm not gonna let him say it because he always [ __ ] it up. All

  • 1:05:56

    right. So tell us what happened. Kim Kardashian told the lady that invited you there and she want she tell the

  • 1:06:03

    story. Tell the story. Okay. The first time this story was told was on my old podcast, I'm here for the food. And I

  • 1:06:09

    never wanted to say it. Way more millions listening now. Let's do that.

  • 1:06:16

    to say this is a brand new story to be true. That's what I'm talking for. For the sorry to you five people who are

  • 1:06:25

    already it's about 7 million out there now. You sure you want to reshare it? Yeah, ma'am. You know, I am thinking it

  • 1:06:32

    to us. Um, okay. This was in 2011, the I believe it was uh 2011, the year after

  • 1:06:39

    that massive earthquake. Okay. So, humanitarian efforts, a lot of people going over to Haiti. Um, and uh I was uh

  • 1:06:48

    I was invited to go and I was there with Marcia Dyson. Marcia, shout out to Marcia. Marcia was like my, you know,

  • 1:06:54

    like like a surrogate mom to me, you know, very protective of me. And this was maybe like a few weeks after she had

  • 1:07:02

    enulled her marriage to what was that boy's name? Chris, right? That 72minute

  • 1:07:07

    marriage, right? Um, and so a lot of hate sprinkles. It's not It's just a

  • 1:07:12

    fact. It's just a fact. And so what And so what happens when you But that's not a fact. It was more than

  • 1:07:18

    72 days something like that. Okay. Okay. Anyways um so she was catching a lot of

  • 1:07:26

    like flak for that. And so what happens is a lot of celebrities go into um

  • 1:07:31

    crisis management during that time. And so crisis management oftent times looks

  • 1:07:36

    like charity and humanitarian missions and [ __ ] like that. So she ended up in Haiti and I ended up in Haiti. And why

  • 1:07:43

    were we there? We were putting on a Christmas party for children from six

  • 1:07:49

    orphanages. I also went down because I was working with this company called Bondoms, the only blackowned um condom

  • 1:07:55

    company. And I brought I'm going to take all that. Okay. Well, it was the blackowned girl. Okay. Sorry. Sorry.

  • 1:08:01

    Anyways, um, so we met just [ __ ] sneak a little ad in there. She just

  • 1:08:08

    think she didn't girl we cuz it was part of why I went down there as well. We got

  • 1:08:14

    that. Okay. So, we met and she was she was cool, you know. Hi, nice to meet you. Whatever. And then her mom went

  • 1:08:20

    over to Marcia Dyson and she said, "Um, yeah, uh, Kim's uncomfortable with

  • 1:08:25

    Melissa being here. Can you send her home?" And Marcia was like, "That might be your

  • 1:08:31

    daughter." No, the [ __ ] she did not. She was like, "That might be your daughter, but that's my daughter. She's not [ __ ] going anywhere." They let you

  • 1:08:37

    stay in Haiti. You said like she was a ste like I

  • 1:08:43

    wasn't there for her. I was there for the I was there for the children. They let you stay. That was that that was why I was there. So, did you Did you go on a

  • 1:08:49

    plane and just chill for a little bit? Did you try to act like you wasn't there no more? The Four Seasons Porter Prince.

  • 1:08:55

    She was Did she go through this? She saw a whole lot of soccer that weekend. Here's the

  • 1:09:00

    thing. She be one orphan. Here's the thing is I don't necessarily know if that was in fact true. If that's why if

  • 1:09:07

    if she was in fact uncomfortable, but that is what she said to Marcia. Marcia

  • 1:09:12

    relayed this story on my podcast. It was it was it was just Did you ask why? What

  • 1:09:18

    were you wearing? You don't ask those questions to a lady.

  • 1:09:24

    What was she wearing? Hm. What was she wearing? Oh, no. No. It had nothing to

  • 1:09:30

    do with what we were wearing. Exactly. What were you wearing on me? Huh? Did you have it on?

  • 1:09:36

    I had on like a lovely summer dress. Oh, yeah. You got to go. Yo, get this girl

  • 1:09:43

    out of Haiti, please. We were flying out. We were around digging. Hey, go on the pilot for me

  • 1:09:50

    immediately. Yeah, just pull right up to where this [ __ ] is standing.

  • 1:09:56

    We get her out of toast. Oh yeah, we got to go. You got to leave Haiti. Yeah. Well, oh, the Kardashians let you stay

  • 1:10:01

    in Haiti. Whatever. Whatever. Was it nice to you after that? We didn't have any other contact. Of course, I re I

  • 1:10:09

    reiterate. So, you were blacklisted. I reiterate there for the kids. That was

  • 1:10:16

    why I was there. and to bring, you know, in a nice dress to put on, you know, to

  • 1:10:22

    decorate. No, this was the there was like multiple things going on. So, we were like at a dinner with dignitaries

  • 1:10:27

    and [ __ ] like that. Okay. Go ahead. Go ahead. Regging the memories short circuit.

  • 1:10:35

    All right. This is my question to you, though. Oh, you bet. In the event that the Kardashians wanted to kick you out

  • 1:10:41

    of Haiti and then wore a chrome heart dress to the Met Gala, you would be able to say if that looked great, even though

  • 1:10:48

    she wanted you nowhere around in Haiti, right? You're that type of objective.

  • 1:10:53

    Yeah. I think that she's had amazing outfits. Okay. In the past before Haiti.

  • 1:10:59

    No, I'm just in general. Like other Met Gala appearances that she's made, I

  • 1:11:05

    think she looked great. this particular outfit. Take her out of the outfit, put somebody else in it. I have the same

  • 1:11:11

    criticism. All right, here's a question for you first. Here's a question for you. Why do you think

  • 1:11:18

    the [ __ ] always say that about you? Like, why do you think they be wanting Get her out of here. What do you be Why

  • 1:11:24

    do you think be wanting to clear you like that, girl? I don't know. I mean, like, I You be Listen, let me tell you

  • 1:11:30

    something. Be extra nice to bitch's husband. There's no Hey, Chris, get up.

  • 1:11:35

    There is no Hey, Dwayne. Gabrielle, I'll kick your ass. Don't even start. Don't

  • 1:11:41

    even Don't even start those narratives. That's nasty. I take that back. That's nasty. But you are extremely nice to

  • 1:11:48

    people. Yes, I am. I am a very nice person. But let me just But let me just make this clear. I could I just don't

  • 1:11:53

    even understand like how woman another woman could let you know that you have

  • 1:11:58

    her shook like that. Like I could never do that. Like the Wayne that these ventures be letting me know. I got you

  • 1:12:05

    shook. That's weird. Oh, now you're shooting it. Can't go there. I know. I know her. Not her. But I mean, like, if

  • 1:12:12

    it don't apply, if it doesn't apply, let it apply. Right. If it doesn't apply, let it fly. But that does that make you

  • 1:12:17

    feel good that people may feel intimidated when you're there? I to be honest, I feel [ __ ] uncomfortable.

  • 1:12:24

    Okay. I feel [ __ ] uncomfortable because it's weird. It's weird behavior. [ __ ] get yourself together. Oh, okay.

  • 1:12:30

  • 1:12:50

    It was a beautiful chrome silver dress look. She looked beautiful. She looked

  • 1:12:56

    beautiful. I'm not saying she looked beautiful. Don't Don't think that this has anything to do I'm like male. This has nothing to do with anything I've

  • 1:13:02

    said about her in the past. I just don't think it went with

  • 1:13:07

    the theme. I think that I think that No, it it was it gave kind of No, it didn't

  • 1:13:13

    go with the theme at all. It's okay to say when people didn't go with the theme. It's another name I want to say, but I won't cuz then you're really going

  • 1:13:20

    to say that I got a hit list. Tell me in my ear and I'll say it. Um No. Oh, no. Cuz you got to say it then they going to

  • 1:13:25

    trying to do things a little bit differently. You know, if y'all do date night at the Met Gallow, are y'all going to have a wandering eye?

    like Wanda Sykes. That's what they called him. No, he definitely look like That's true. No, he looked a little look

  • 1:16:29

    crazy to you. He looked like when you pour the salt on the slug at first.

  • 1:16:36

    that [ __ ] start drawing up. Yeah, he look idiot, bro. That hair I'm with Ice. I wouldn't have cut him. Maybe he had a

  • 1:16:42

    reason. Maybe he's doing a new look, rebranding. I don't know. But whatever it is, the dreads were a thing. And [ __ ] do get When you cut the dreads,

  • 1:16:48

    there's that funny awkward phase. Yeah. Of you looking funny when you cut the dreads, right? Or [ __ ] don't really

  • 1:16:54

    And if you look good, like DDG cut his [ __ ] and took a picture with the hair, now you look doofy again cuz you're taking a picture with hair in your hand.

  • 1:17:00

    He actually look good without the dread. Like, no, he looks great. Yeah. But then when you take the picture holding the hair on the floor, it does look a little

  • 1:17:07

    shout out to DDG. A lot of people in the street uh over the weekend told me his album is hard. A lot of my younger a lot

  • 1:17:12

  • 1:20:16

    That's true. Yeah, we did. Bad timing. And he must have heard. He must have heard us. Pro three stacks. He must have

  • 1:20:23

    heard us. He saw my shirt. Now he showed up to the Met Gala with a piano book bag

  • 1:20:29

    on. Seemed heavy. Yes. Or light. I'm not sure. Or awkward at the very least. You're going to smack someone with a

  • 1:20:35

    leg. Yeah, for certain. And he seems to have dropped a piano project. He did.

  • 1:20:40

    I listen to it and I'm ready to kick it back in. If you're I'm here with you. I was trying to Yeah. not do that. The flu

  • 1:20:46

    [ __ ] was cool. I can't really It's like watching hockey or something. I can't really give no analysis on that [ __ ] cuz

  • 1:20:51

    that's how I felt. It's like, but keyboards now. I know a little bit about the [ __ ] keyboard. And that was bad

  • 1:20:57

    piano playing. That [ __ ] was horrible. Let me tell Lil Bell first, just a little bit. He did announce on his

  • 1:21:05

    Instagram that this He did announce on his Instagram that this album was made 10 years prior to the flute album. Don't

  • 1:21:11

    care. So, no, but just so people know, he does he's not saying that this is like he's building on his musicianship.

  • 1:21:16

    Uhhuh. I just don't know why he released it. He's trolling. You think he's trolling, bro? Yes, I do. I honestly do.

  • 1:21:22

    I think he's just he know the excitement of Andre 3000 new album is going to make people say, "Yo, is he rapping? Is he

  • 1:21:28

    doing this? Is he doing that?" I think he's like [ __ ] with people now. So, he's putting anything out. He's doing whatever he wants to do, which he has

  • 1:21:34

    the right to do. I'm not knocking that. But why is doing whatever you want to do called trolling? It's it's you're trolling your fans. You know what your

  • 1:21:40

    fans want. You know, if they see new project, they're going to Hey, we just

  • 1:21:46

    want a verse. Give us something. So, I'm going to give you everything but that. I'm not going to give you any words.

  • 1:21:52

    This person has not given you any indication that you would be getting words from him anytime soon. I understand that you it's is it's

  • 1:21:58

    teasing. So, at this point, the fans, I'm saying, would be trolling themselves. Yeah. I I don't think he's trolling. I'll tell you why. In his

  • 1:22:04

    announcement on Instagram, he even said like this was initially supposed to be titled the worst rap album ever cuz there's no bars on. So, so he was

  • 1:22:10

    preparing a person saying, "Look, there's no bars. Don't expect any bars. I want title the worst rap album ever." That's what he said, right? That's what

  • 1:22:16

    he was going to title it back then, but he held on to it and decided to put it out there. Trolling had he done that. I

  • 1:22:21

    think that would have definitely been trolling, but I think he decided not to do that and just put it out. I I think it's more just the arrogance of an

  • 1:22:26

    artist that thinks that no matter what their thoughts are, no matter what they do, we we want them like that and the world's entitled to hear them. Like I

  • 1:22:32

    don't This sounded like I remember being a high school band. Yeah. And we would just, you know, we mess around and make

  • 1:22:37

    little songs. That's what it sounded like. The level of keyboard playing. No, man. This [ __ ] sounded like when I got the one the keyboard when I was eight.

  • 1:22:45

    Yeah. The little Casio [ __ ] that you could make it be the drums if you want. You you switch the instruments on it and

  • 1:22:50

    you just start [ __ ] around. you have no idea what you're doing or it was bad. That's what that was. There was a couple

  • 1:22:56

    good chords there and I feel like this was him learning how to play piano in real time and just release it to people.

  • 1:23:01

    No, this was him before he decided to learn how to play piano. No, this is like he learned a couple chords from someone and was like, "All right, I can

  • 1:23:08

    put this together." And sort of did, but it was it's bad. Like the dynamics like he's hitting [ __ ] too hard. Yeah. He

  • 1:23:13

    doesn't know how to play the piano. He doesn't know how to play the piano or knows minimally how to play the piano. And I wouldn't be mad if he took this

  • 1:23:19

    and was like, "Hey, person that is really good at piano, this is my idea. Can you make it good?" And that might

  • 1:23:26

    work, but him doing it, bro. Yeah. The one song that didn't suck was the one

  • 1:23:31

    where there's suck. Yes. The ones the song that sucked the least was the one that had the or I think it was track six

  • 1:23:36

    or seven. It had like the organ playing mansion or some [ __ ] Yeah. It had some other things going on with it. N and I

  • 1:23:43

    still didn't like it. And then the one chord the one sort of chord progression that sounded good was just super derivative of of a of a um very famous

  • 1:23:50

    jazz stand that's escaping me right now. But it just it just wasn't good. I've never seen an artist put out something where they're just bad at the instrument

  • 1:23:56

    and say, "Hey, watch me play this instrument badly." Badly for it's only 15 16 minutes the whole album. It was a

  • 1:24:03

    the worst 15 minutes of music I've sat down in a long time. I listened to it for an hour. Let's do it on the drive up

  • 1:24:10

    here cuz I was like it's only 16 minutes and I hated every like I I I played it again hoping it would get better. Yeah.

  • 1:24:16

    I never played this again. Oh my god, man. Never. I hate all these

  • 1:24:22

    [ __ ] Why? Why? I'm going back to what I said, Dice. At at this point, if you're buying these

  • 1:24:28

    projects from Andre 3000 expecting good music, I think you bring that upon yourself. Oh, time out. I ain't pay for

  • 1:24:34

    this. I stream. He don't get a purchase. He ain't he's off that list. I need to hear this and say, "Oh [ __ ] he gave me

  • 1:24:40

    some. Let me go support and buy that." My what I'm what I'm saying is this.

  • 1:24:45

    Y'all are having a blast unpacking the sonics of it, right? And great. I

  • 1:24:52

    didn't buy the flute album and I won't be listening to this. So, I can't I can't join that. I I didn't hate the flute. I won't buy another one. The

  • 1:24:59

    flute album, he he earned my my respect enough. I didn't like it. It felt like I was getting a massage, but at least it

  • 1:25:05

    was solid music. You know what I mean? But part of art for me has to be the messaging and the intent behind it and

  • 1:25:11

    and what it symbolizes. And I think in m music is the only place where we condense art to just say, "Hey, it

  • 1:25:18

    sounds good, sounds bad, it's trash." I don't know how that [ __ ] sounds cuz I don't wake up on a rag and put flutes

  • 1:25:24

    and pianos on. So I ain't about to break my I'm not about to break the tradition doing that with him. However, I think

  • 1:25:32

    that he is, this is back to my point in our Patreon combo with his album and how it wasn't a rap on it. I think he's one

  • 1:25:38

    of the artsiest of the artsy. For sure. Absolutely. And I think that now more

  • 1:25:44

    than ever, we should be encouraging artists. You may not agree with how he did it, but we should be encouraging

  • 1:25:50

    artists to not only do what's near and dear to their heart, but also to find a

  • 1:25:55

    value in it. I will say this. What it made me think of was, hey, it's at least

  • 1:26:00

    nice to hear humanity. It's not heavily quantized. It's not reprogram. No, on

  • 1:26:06

    the piano [ __ ] that we just listen and all of that [ __ ] Yeah. This is definitively not AI. And that part I

  • 1:26:12

    like. Yeah, definitely. But it's [ __ ] bad. AI could do that. Now, to your to your point, yes, in artists, we we do

  • 1:26:19

    want artists to explore and and put put their art out, but art is also subjective. So, I could go to a museum

  • 1:26:26

    and a artist who bust painting that right there. I could still look at that and say, "Hey, I don't like that." And

  • 1:26:33

    I'm entitled to that as as a consumer. Nothing in nothing in what I'm saying is trying to strip you of that, right? So,

  • 1:26:38

    I don't I don't want you to reply to that. I think anybody who's trashing him should trash him. I'm I'm just saying

  • 1:26:45

    what if he finds who he's looking for? M what if he paid to have it whatever it

  • 1:26:51

    is that he's searching for and putting out these uh very eclectic abstract projects,

  • 1:26:57

    right? And good for him if he does that. What they said album they said the flute album um the whole entire album was at

  • 1:27:04

    like 400 and something megahertz or 432 hertz 440 hertz something like that

  • 1:27:10

    which has been quote unquote proven to have certain healing principles and healing power. So if that's his bag and

  • 1:27:16

    that's what he's in, then the flute [ __ ] might have had a purpose for him. So you believe that, but you don't believe the Kendrick people looking into lyrics and

  • 1:27:23

    [ __ ] If the the the flute people, if it's moving at a certain megahertz, then

  • 1:27:29

    that could be proven. I don't know if that was his intent. And again, I'm not that sounds that sounds I'm not saying

  • 1:27:35

    that that is it. I'm saying that's what the people are saying. But if that is the entire album is really operating on

  • 1:27:40

    that frequency, then that might have been his purpose in his fan base. I think that that was intentional with the flutes, but with the

  • 1:27:47

    piano and his outfit, it's like the cart before the horse kind of thing. I feel like the release of this album was

  • 1:27:55

    simply just to prepare you for this. Yeah, exactly. The cover is that exactly the cover is literally him with the

  • 1:28:01

    sketch of the same [ __ ] he wore to make and also look at the timing. You know what I mean? Like that's that's exactly

  • 1:28:07

    going to say he has over 25 years of being intentional. True. and highly you

  • 1:28:12

    don't you don't know him to not be intentional. Yes. All true. But this is still intent but not for the purpose of

  • 1:28:20

    so that we know we don't know. I'm just saying what I'm saying. No no I the

  • 1:28:27

    consumer can say whatever they want. We one thing doesn't negate the other. I keep saying that. Like [ __ ] on them. But

  • 1:28:35

    the music business today will do everything they can to keep you confined. Yeah. or in a or in a box.

  • 1:28:42

    They'll incentivize you, they'll pay you, they'll bring your friends along or take you to a game, they'll give you a card, they [ __ ] want you off your

  • 1:28:47

    feet so you could stay in the box. So, the very few times that we find somebody that's going to say, "You know what? No,

  • 1:28:54

    I'm going to do what I want. I find value in that, I'm not going to knock the [ __ ] for that." And as a rapper,

  • 1:29:00

    you know how frightening it is for a rapper to think, I can speak to this.

  • 1:29:05

    Yo, you know what? I'm never going to rap again. or I'm just not going to rap at the clip

  • 1:29:11

    I used to rap. I'mma put I'mma take the thing I know how to do best on the planet and put it on the back burner and

  • 1:29:17

    now find something. Dog, that is so bold and [ __ ] courageous that it's like at that point, why do we care what the

  • 1:29:24

    retired firefighter is doing with his time? If that [ __ ] finds solace in being in the garage and sewing and

  • 1:29:31

    selling it on Facebook, who are we to [ __ ] say, "Yo, that's trash." Well,

  • 1:29:37

    and my thought is trash and I get what you're saying, right? I think for me it's that Andre

  • 1:29:43

    has 25 years of being intentional has 25 years of putting out high quality art, right? Whether it's visual art, whether

  • 1:29:48

    it's the cartoons, whe everything he does is high quality. So, I had a faith in him with the flute album that it

  • 1:29:54

    would be high quality. Flute album wasn't for me. Whether or not, I didn't listen to it. No, the flute album was high. That's high quality. I'm saying it

  • 1:30:02

    was high quality. It just wasn't for me. That's different. It's high quality. Just wasn't for me. This is the departure for me. Not because it's not

  • 1:30:07

    for me, but because it's actually not good art. It's not good. I don't really think that it's a departure, though. I

  • 1:30:13

    think in my interpretation, you know, because, you know, art is subjective. I think that this was literally being

  • 1:30:19

    treated as an accessory to his [ __ ] outfit. That because because Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Because he had it

  • 1:30:25

    for 10, 11 years and never did [ __ ] all with it. Same texture to his friends. Yeah. Exactly. It's only 15, 16 minutes

  • 1:30:30

    long. It's unfinished. Whatever. but he happens to release it around the exact same time that the Met Gala comes out

  • 1:30:36

    and he has this outfit. I just I'm looking at this as simply just an accessory to the outfit. There's a really really weird accessory. Then it's

  • 1:30:43

    then I would I think that's super fly and artsy again. If that's what's

  • 1:30:48

    happening unless it sucks. Unless it's a bad boy earrings. Yeah, exactly right.

  • 1:30:55

    They just put on a beret. Well, let's be clear. The outfit also kind of sucks. Like so it's consistent. You know, I

  • 1:31:02

    have a different reference for Andre. I love Andre. Andre is one of my favorite creatives of all time. Andre, I think we

  • 1:31:08

    all up here love Andre. But the love don't mean we can't say, "Hey, we love you." But that ain't it. No, that's

  • 1:31:15

    true. That's all I'm saying. However, know that the person you talking about, every step of his career since the

  • 1:31:21

    beginning has been people saying, "Hey, whatever you're doing is not it right now." Joe, what do you what do you what

  • 1:31:26

    are you not good at? Name something you're not good at. It's math. It's not a math album. Okay. Right. So,

  • 1:31:33

    like if you said, "Look, I I'm retiring from rap because I'm not going to do rap anymore. I'm going to do something else." You podcast it. You're great at

  • 1:31:39

    the shell method and the disc method. I think I think podcasting is the

  • 1:31:44

    perfect example. I just don't want to [ __ ] take it there right this second, but it's the perfect example. Yo, I'm going to not rhyme. I'm not I'm not

  • 1:31:50

    going to produce high quality art. I'm going to just look. Yeah, but it's a little that's a little different because

  • 1:31:56

    in your rhyming you were still expressing yourself. You were talking you were just doing it rhyming

  • 1:32:03

    and on beat. So you still talking I'm only talking about from the POV of the person that has to make the change.

  • 1:32:09

    Right. Right. But I'm saying as the consumer of that change. If you decided to say I'm going to now make um I'm

  • 1:32:14

    going to start web streaming math math tutoring sessions and all your math problems are wrong and all your

  • 1:32:20

    equations are off. As a consumer, I'm like, "Yo, this isn't what I this isn't what I expected. It's not a perfect

  • 1:32:25

    comparison. My point is just I like I like the comparison." And stay here for a second. It's a bad comparison because you could prove the math. You could

  • 1:32:31

    prove the math to be correct or incorrect. But I want Let me respond to them. Let me respond to it cuz I like

  • 1:32:37

    it. Leave those things. I like those things that y'all trying to take out. I went and started a math

  • 1:32:45

    club and all of my math was wrong. Yeah. and bad and sloppy and defied all of the

  • 1:32:52

    things that math yada yada yada yada yada yada I then go to

  • 1:32:59

    amass a following of 10 million people let's call it year

  • 1:33:06

    one not only are they going to come up with a new name for my

  • 1:33:12

    math but this bad math is about to be a thing now because I've amassed this

  • 1:33:17

    audience So, who is it on me to why is it on why would it be on a person to say, "Well,

  • 1:33:24

    we shouldn't start that person so fear-based. We shouldn't start that person with, "Hey, everything you about to do is wrong, so you shouldn't do it."

  • 1:33:31

    Right. And I'm not at the should level. I'm I'm saying as a consumer cuz I I take what I It's saying seriously, right? You're right. It's not a good

  • 1:33:37

    comparison because there's an objectivity to whether math is right or wrong. But what I'm saying is as a consumer, I have a right to say, "Look,

  • 1:33:42

    I expected great things from you because you given me great [ __ ] and and now this is shit." That's all I'm saying. And when I hear the flute album, I'm like,

  • 1:33:48

    "This isn't for me. It's great. It's just not for me." When I hear the piano, I'm like, "This is actually technically, it's not quite math objective, but this

  • 1:33:55

    is technically bad piano playing." I could also just say, as someone who produces music and who is not a world-class musician, who works with

  • 1:34:00

    other people that are not a world-class musician, it's okay to say, "Hey, I have this idea. I can't fully execute it. Let

  • 1:34:06

    me get someone who does." Right? And that's all he can. I think that's fine. He's still a composer. could still be his album, but it's someone that is

  • 1:34:13

    really good at piano or at least better than him executing his idea. Like, yo, if Hoveve tomorrow put out an album and

  • 1:34:19

    it's him singing all singing, no autotune, none of that [ __ ] but he's singing and he

  • 1:34:26

    just sounds bad. He can't sing. He can't hold a note or nothing. It ain't going to take away from Ho's greatness, but we

  • 1:34:32

    going to be like, "Yo, my [ __ ] this'll never sing again. Don't say like like we can't tell him that. But as a fan we can be like I don't want to hear you sing it

  • 1:34:39

    anymore and I would be like objectively you're off key. Like there are things about it technically that just off me. Wait. And I'm saying y'all should

  • 1:34:46

    totally be able to say that for sure. Just leave some space for the people

  • 1:34:53

    that want to see how Hoveve distributed this album. What his intent was behind

  • 1:34:59

    this album. Cuz if Ho put out an album on his uh on his title [ __ ] and he just

  • 1:35:06

    closed the deal with Roger Goodell cuz he knew something was coming down the pipeline and now on all

  • 1:35:12

    commercials then I'm going to say he's a genius. He proceeded. All I'm saying is

  • 1:35:18

    allow space for the people. We don't I don't know what Andre's intention here

  • 1:35:24

    was, but he's been a genius. He's been a genius as long as I've known him, so I'm

  • 1:35:30

    just allowing space for it. And if not, we could call him a duck. No, he's still a genius.

  • 1:35:36

    Even with this album and the flu album, it's still genius [ __ ] We just don't got to like it. That's I'm not trying to

  • 1:35:44

    genius. Yeah. No, I'm off of that. Look, let me ask you something. If if if back in the day, if you were great friends

  • 1:35:50

    with Albert Albert Einstein, right? And then I'm leaving this cuz now I'm just coming up with [ __ ] If you was best

  • 1:35:56

    friends with Albert Einstein, sounds ridiculous. Sounds nuts to you. Yeah, but you know him to be the

  • 1:36:03

    genius. But let's say he got a get a hangover one day. Mhm. And now he just start talking something

  • 1:36:10

    that sound like gibberish. It don't It don't sound like himself. Would you

  • 1:36:15

    discount it or would you still listen? I would listen. Why? Because he's earned

  • 1:36:21

    that cache with me. He's earned that. He got that equity with me by being such a genius that I know him to be. Same thing

  • 1:36:28

    with Andre. We run to Listen. Soon as the [ __ ] dropped, press play. He's Andre

  • 1:36:34

    is an immediate cop. Well, immediate listen. I ain't paying for it. But once

  • 1:36:39

    you hear it, it's like, oh, all right, my [ __ ] You on [ __ ] You just doing whatever you want. You doing what you want to do. Okay, cool. This wasn't

  • 1:36:44

    for me. Respect. I think we need more artists that do whatever I think we need

  • 1:36:50

    more artist may not like what he's doing. I I end with I think we need more artists that do whatever we have the

  • 1:36:57

    freedom to do whatever the [ __ ] they want. Nobody here is is disagreeing with that. We all want to do that. But you

  • 1:37:02

    ain't never getting your Rihanna album, [ __ ] Take them flutes and pianos and enjoy it. You're never getting Rihanna.

  • 1:37:09

    We want more people to do what they want to do, but at the same time, if it's still We want people to do it and the quality still be good. That's it. Some

  • 1:37:16

    people are invested in the art. Freeze. That's it. Art is suggested. There may be a thousand people. There may be

  • 1:37:21

    100,000 people. There may be 100,000 people that love this Andre album. What scripts do y'all live by? What? What?

  • 1:37:28

    What scripts do y'all live by? What is that? What do you mean by script? No, just what what what script? Uh, for me,

  • 1:37:34

    if I had to say, it's probably only my mom and my girl. Outside of that, I'm on my own [ __ ]

  • 1:37:40

    time. Whose script are you living out? Nobody's Nobody's on my own. That being said, I

  • 1:37:47

    will listen to someone around me. Mhm. And I feel like someone around him must have said, "Hey, bro, what you doing?"

  • 1:37:54

    That's all. Yo, what's this? Maybe you could try like do it now that you're a better musician or something. That would

  • 1:38:00

    have been interesting to me, too, to hear what what he played what he sounded like now. you probably ain't playing it to nobody and just yo, this is what I

  • 1:38:05

    like. He said he said it to his friends on on text. That's that's why I that's why I'm I really lean into this was an

  • 1:38:12

    accessory to the outfit, you know. And and who's ever used music as an accessory to an outfit? Let me hold on.

  • 1:38:19

    Let me give you a quick example. You were recording Moo Music 4. I remember this. I walked in the crib. You were right into Inception. I walked in the

  • 1:38:27

    kitchen and I heard you going, you talking out loud while he's writing. Yo, let's warm it up. Microwave [ __ ] about

  • 1:38:33

    to get hot summer. I said, "What the [ __ ] you doing?" Cuz that's not you. You're too good of a rapper to do that.

  • 1:38:40

    You was like, "Yo, don't worry about it. I'm doing something with this. You'll get it." Cool. So, you could hear

  • 1:38:46

    something that's not the person. Ask them what they doing and they just say, "Yo, I got this." Like you said, Andre

  • 1:38:52

    could have told them, "Yo, this is just something to accomp accompany my outfit. Don't worry about it. I got it." And you

  • 1:38:57

    let them cook. Mhm. Yeah. Don't charge me for question beyond Andre. If you say something slick to this to this [ __ ]

  • 1:39:03

    with the funny flutes and pianos, he gonna bar you to death. I'm just telling you. Well, maybe whatever your ticket to give him to rap. I'll take I'll take

  • 1:39:09

    I'll take I'll take it. Burn me up, please. Selfish fiend. If if y'all could

  • 1:39:14

    do something completely outside of what y'all do in your life to take a risk, what would it be? Like you know what I mean? Like I like I sometimes think about like writing a book of poems or

  • 1:39:22

    doing you mean like you know you think about some [ __ ] that's just completely outside of your wheelhouse that you would do to take that kind of risk. What would it be for you? I'm going be honest

  • 1:39:28

    with you. This was a risk for me cuz I hated cameras. I I never was a fan of none of that [ __ ]

  • 1:39:33

    I hated cameras and all. And I still got them though. And I still got them though. Well, that's facts. Okay. We

  • 1:39:39

    going to put a couple things to bed though. Do that big. Come on. Like that was a risk. I never liked the tension.

  • 1:39:46

    Never like cameras and all that [ __ ] So, this was a risk. Oh, that's interesting. Yeah, it makes sense. It makes sense. And he was ugly as hell

  • 1:39:52

    when he got here blowing ants off of the microphone. No, he was though. He was

  • 1:39:58

    That ain't stop nothing though. Everybody else can answer the question

  • 1:40:03

    though. Let's keep the conversation. What film would it be? Film answer. Film like on on screen or no? Uh I don't know

  • 1:40:12

    actually. I'm not sure. Something in visual arts though. Like film though. Photography or Speaking of visual arts,

  • 1:40:18

    you didn't mention uh Jeff Goldblown. Oh yeah, he look good. When you said film, I had a Jeff Gold. I was I was

  • 1:40:24

    cooking. Clean shoe. Clean Jeff muffin. Wash your dishes. That's it. 72.

  • 1:40:32

    That's a good one. Wash your dishes. Shout him out.

  • 1:40:39

    Still not that guy. He is a smooth dude though. That's the level of smooth you

  • 1:40:45

    can only hope to aspire to get at 72 years old. Yeah, he was floating. He's always been

  • 1:40:51

    that way. So, [Laughter]

  • 1:40:56

    Suave and Devonire. I want to answer Mark's question. It was a good question. For me, it would be um gaming and anime.

  • 1:41:04

    That's so far outside my realm. I know nothing about it. It looks cool. It's intimidating to me. Now, you know what

  • 1:41:11

    you know about. You know a lot about gaming. You know, you fooling. I mean, I've been in video games. I've been

  • 1:41:17

    characters in video games. But I mean like what you was in like Grand Theft um

  • 1:41:23

    uh Def Jam's um a couple of them but Death Jam was one and then another one I

  • 1:41:28

    can't She trying to steal your thunder, bro. My was crazy. But yeah, that was

  • 1:41:33

    that would that would be what what I would do. Yeah. How would you flip?

  • 1:41:40

    Probably dancing. Yeah. Tickle toes. Yes, I can see that.

  • 1:41:46

    Any particular genre or style? Ballet. Yeah. The Walts. The

  • 1:41:51

    Walts. He like hit. He like that old school [ __ ] Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's true. You never thought about dancing

  • 1:41:57

    with the stars? Nah. No. Would you do it? I would. Really? Mhm.

  • 1:42:05

    Like the wrestling [ __ ] Oh, see. What about the wrestling [ __ ] I don't understand. I don't understand the

  • 1:42:11

    comparison. Same wrestling was something you said you wanted to do early on and then uh because of fear you quit and was

  • 1:42:17

    scared to put the work. Did you listen to your white counterpart? Did he tell you that? No. Cuz that's what you like to do. You like to listen to the white

  • 1:42:22

    man. So that's not what it was. You know that's not what it was. I allowed you No, I didn't allow I was comfortable

  • 1:42:28

    with the narrative being put out. That's not what it was. He had an idea. Oh, I

  • 1:42:33

    didn't ask you to clear it up. Oh, yeah. All right. All right. I cleared up I cleared them on Twitter when they started talking. They flip. So, she said

  • 1:42:40

    if they brought the mask dancer back, what character would you be? Um, Barney.

  • 1:42:45

    Buffalo. I'll be Barney. Yeah. I mean, you know,

  • 1:42:51

    listen, this is just to continue to take risk. You do that right away, too. That was Just

  • 1:42:57

    continue. Yeah. You thought about that. You thought about that. He thought about that. I'm going go back to comedy.

  • 1:43:02

    That's funny. It's comedy for me. That's a good one. On stage on stand up. Stand

  • 1:43:08

    up. traveling the world back to touring chidlin circuit. I can that that's

  • 1:43:14

    comedy. I'd be able to say all the things that I want to say on here, but I don't because they would uh attribute it

  • 1:43:20

    to me. Every time you think about it's a bigger risk though cuz you don't pay the audience to laugh.

  • 1:43:27

    You know what I'm saying? Like it's scary when you go out there. Have you ever done like a standup set? No. They

  • 1:43:33

    thought about it. It's I've I've never done a standup set, but I've like just warmed up crowds, you know, cuz I've hosted comedy shows. That [ __ ] the

  • 1:43:38

    moment you tell a joke that nobody laugh at, that [ __ ] crumbles. It's like getting punched in the chest. Okay, but hold up now.

  • 1:43:45

    When I say comedy, I don't necessarily want to be good every night. Interesting. Can't be. I would love I

  • 1:43:52

    would love to stand there in a tank and go out there and have to deal with a

  • 1:43:57

    bomb and work through a bomb to to build character. I want to see how it makes me

  • 1:44:03

    feel. I I would want to stand in the tank. I don't just want to be Mr. Perfect. Whatever is you almost don't do

  • 1:44:10

    it at your butt and do it as like pre Yeah. So he talked about it for so many years. I just go to one of them little

  • 1:44:15

    local comedy joints and just Why? Yeah. Why do you I was just going to ask that. Why every time you think about it you

  • 1:44:21

    stop? Like even with that or DJing and you know getting on DJing in front of a

  • 1:44:27

    crowd like why do you stop? Why don't you do it? Plenty of times you talked about doing these things and you haven't done it. You'd be a great DJ. You'd be a

  • 1:44:34

    great DJ. Yeah. We say that all the time. I I don't know. But sometimes No, no, no. That's not enough. You think

  • 1:44:40

    sometimes the music you hear in your head that they not responding to. Same thing with comedy. You got to be able to

  • 1:44:45

    get through that when you throwing some [ __ ] on that you think you jamming and they like, "Nah, this ain't it." Yeah.

  • 1:44:51

    Yeah. So, it don't necessarily mean because you can play music well don't mean you can DJ well and MC a come true.

  • 1:44:58

    You got to be a risk taker. You think you're too old to take risk? Um, no. I just think in answering Mar's

  • 1:45:04

    question, that's something that I would want to do if like if I was calling shots, not living by a certain script. But to answer your question why I don't

  • 1:45:10

    do it right now, I'm a [ __ ] [Laughter]

  • 1:45:17

    I like new Joe. Yo, I like got to have it. Listen, buddy.

  • 1:45:24

    Are you done? I'm sorry. I don't have time to stop what I'm on right now. Go

  • 1:45:30

    follow my heart. Yo, it's money or passion. I'm not at

  • 1:45:35

    the point in life where I'm living for me. Let's experiment and do this over

  • 1:45:40

    here. If I was living for me, let's go have at it. So, we back. But what's your

  • 1:45:47

    answer? Yes. What would you do? Um, anything public speaking related.

  • 1:45:52

    Wait, what? You tried that already though, so that's not really Wait, don't you already do that though? No, I don't

  • 1:45:58

    do that. You're so dumb, man. Well, why y'all can't let him share and

  • 1:46:03

    be vulnerable before y'all? Well, no. I know what he's saying. He's saying like a like a like a motivational speaker, like a public speaker, like a like

  • 1:46:08

    standing in front of large crowds. But isn't that why you went to the DR? That is

  • 1:46:28

    beh the the Dominican. But yeah, I mean like that's

  • 1:46:34

    what I thought that was. It was like a whole con convention conference that you were

  • 1:46:40

    speaking at. I don't like that you stuck on con that long. No. No, I'm I'm being I'm being serious.

  • 1:46:47

    Like I feel like being a public speaker. Don't do that. No, that's what I'm saying. It's it's I feel like it's already in his wheelhouse. I feel like

  • 1:46:52

    he's good at he's good at speaking and motivating people. I don't know. I feel like we were talking about things that were like that's so far removed from

  • 1:46:57

    like who you are. Like

  • 1:47:03

    my [ __ ] I don't know what to tell you. I answered it like I don't know what to tell you like I said poems you actually think mine would be something physical

  • 1:47:09

  • 1:49:01

    uh No, I'm not. I didn't interpret the question to have to be about fear.

  • 1:49:08

    Just far out your wheelhouse. I mean, there's something scary about that, but I I I think of it as a little something. It's a little scary, but got to be. Why

  • 1:49:13

    would it be scary? I mean, if you have the platform to promote it and stuff like I mean, unless Yeah. I don't know why that would be. Yeah. I get what Cory's saying, but you have you have the

  • 1:49:19

    audience, you have the platform. People are animal lovers. Like comedy, I get the scariness of it. That's fearful.

  • 1:49:24

    Speaking I get the scariness of it. Yeah. The anime I think for you is just because it's a different genre stuff you working for a living. What you got to do

  • 1:49:30

    is go talk to one little Japanese [ __ ] She'll get it man. Melissa them girls cooking over

  • 1:49:36

    Like that. He had We're not going to regurgitate that. I'm just saying. But she's such a sweet person, too. She is. She is one of the

  • 1:52:47

    sweetest people I've ever met. We can't regurgitate that. But we can regurgitate all the slave dandyism. Well, I mean,

  • 1:52:53

    because it was a [ __ ] It was a theme, you know. But we're not going to worse than No, it's not. It's not. We're not

  • 1:52:58

    going to regurgitate the ugly [ __ ] that they were saying about her. That was that was [ __ ] up. Well, and it's not

  • 1:53:03

    true. Obviously not true. Oh my lord. They said you were Rasheed Wallace. So I mean

  • 1:53:10

    what which is better than Carl. They said take that over what they were saying about old girl. That's true in

  • 1:53:17

    the culture. [Music] He wasn't outside. It's cool. Yeah. I

  • 1:53:24

    know who Rasheed Wallace is. Oh, okay.

  • 1:53:29

    I would never mix up these two, him and Rashid Wallace. Ever. That's why I'm

  • 1:53:35

    curious. I'm confused. But okay, many years ago.

  • 1:53:41

    I hate when y'all do I be trying to protect y'all from yselves. Well, you mentioned you mentioned Rashid Wallace.

  • 1:53:47

    You want to talk basketball players and Paul Pierce? Oh, we can do that. All right. Paul Pierce has a

  • 1:53:53

    um trying to get out of that Paul Pierce has a clip floating around. Um I I sent it to Parks. You got it? I

  • 1:54:00

    do. Okay. where he's he's speaking on marriage and uh everybody's thoughts on

  • 1:54:06

    it. It's my favorite. You know what I'm saying? Like cuz I feel like every relationship shouldn't be based off sex, but every relationship is based off of

  • 1:54:12

    that. That's I don't think so. 100%. You can't tell me nothing different. This is what I feel and that's why I'll never be

  • 1:54:18

    in another relationship cuz it's always based off of that. So you're not going to be in another relationship? No. No. For what? Cuz it's going to be based off

  • 1:54:25

    of sex. Once that wear down, you going to go find somebody else that's better. Wear down. Yeah. It ain't going to be

  • 1:54:30

    based off of this the thing and listen carefully. Listen carefully

  • 1:54:37

    relationship smoker jacket. Let me say what marriage is and who's marriage for.

  • 1:54:43

    Marriage is for old people and poor people. Okay. So let's get into that and why?

  • 1:54:51

    Because when you broke, our parents like my moms and all them, they they married on a merit of like, okay, we gonna put

  • 1:54:58

    our incomes together, have all these kids, and then when our kids, we going to have five, 10 kids back in the 60s,

  • 1:55:03

    all them, they going have five, 10 kids, so they can work and bring income. Yeah.

  • 1:55:08

    So you poor, so you married for that. And now when you get old, somebody to be

  • 1:55:15

    by your side to take care of. right now. My my mom got married. My mom never been

  • 1:55:21

    married in my lifetime. She got married when she was 70. Wow. It was perfect. She had somebody by her side the whole

  • 1:55:27

    way through. So, do you really believe like outside of that, it's no

  • 1:55:33

    advantage to a man? Why is marriage advantage? What advantage? What what what does it do for

  • 1:55:39

    a man when things go south? Like we going to have to give up half our this

  • 1:55:44

    pay child support pay. But what do the Stop talking to a woman. He's almost We

  • 1:55:50

    could stop it. But what if you meet a I don't know that I want to hear more. Yo,

  • 1:55:55

    he drunk Paul Pierce is one of my favorite people to listen to. Not saying he was drunk here, but he sound, you know, he sounded

  • 1:56:04

    he want to let the audience know and I'm talking to ball to y'all. I want to let y'all know Paul Pierce is on the list

  • 1:56:10

    for me of people that I don't listen to one word that they have to say unless he's talking about basketball. If if

  • 1:56:17

    he's not talking bad, I want to hear him and Kevin Garnett. I want to hear that basketball [ __ ] He's one of the greats. Can't take that away from him. Anything

  • 1:56:23

    outside of that scope, he's on the list for me. He sounds like he's speaking

  • 1:56:28

    through trauma. That's what he sounds like he's speak. First of all, let's go through the stat statistics about men.

  • 1:56:35

    First of all, uh married men are healthier than their single counterparts. That's just a fact. That's

  • 1:56:41

    just a fact. I've definitely heard it. Okay. And there's a reason for that because their wives take care of them

  • 1:56:46

    whenever you guys Sorry. Your wives do your wives and significant

  • 1:56:52

    others do a lot for you. You know, they do a lot of the emotional labor. They do they do a lot. Just hold on. Don't just

  • 1:56:58

    just they do a lot of stuff, but they also make sure that you go to the doctor

  • 1:57:03

    when [ __ ] is [ __ ] up because they need you. So married men are take are taken care of by their wives. So they are

  • 1:57:09

    healthier than their single counterparts. That's number one. Number two, in terms of marriage being for [ __ ] poor people, the majority of uh

  • 1:57:17

    CEOs of Fortune 500 companies, almost every single president, millionaires, multi-millionaires, billionaires, 95% of

  • 1:57:25

    them are married. Why? Because that indicates stability amongst a whole host of other [ __ ] things. So there you've

  • 1:57:32

    got that [ __ ] wrong. Taxes, to your point, yes, taxes. It It's

  • 1:57:37

    mutually beneficial to be married rather than being a single person. I can speak to that. Yes. And then furthermore, your

  • 1:57:44

    reality is [ __ ] skewed. You've never been married. You've been living in a bubble. Your reality is completely is

  • 1:57:50

    not the norm. So if you're associating marriage with just sex that you know the desire dries out and then the woman is

  • 1:57:56

    just going to take you for half your worth and your your and sue you for child support. Well, you are you sound

  • 1:58:03

    mad bitter actually. Like that's a really really skewed way of looking at love and

  • 1:58:12

    companionship. That's that's [ __ ] wild to me. I'm wishing. Yeah. So I will defer to the gentleman in the room to to

  • 1:58:20

    the married to the married people in the room. Yes. Absolutely. I mean I do I do agree with Mel. Um stability is is

  • 1:58:26

    important. Taxes. Um understanding somebody did Why do you

  • 1:58:31

    keep saying that? Cuz you got married young. You didn't have money when you got married. Uh, that's not true. You had money when you got married? I did. I

  • 1:58:37

    had the team. I had a team deal. So, I did get married, but I spent the

  • 1:58:42

    rest. Look, look who woke up. Look who woke up. Look who woke up. Laugh at my

  • 1:58:48

    expense. Keep going. Look who woke up. Go ahead. [ __ ] out of here, man. You had

  • 1:58:53

    this. I didn't know you had a sidekick deal. I did. Look, look, man. Look, look, look, look, look at [ __ ] man.

  • 1:59:00

    Look, look at the hate. Had a team over there. Who hating you? [ __ ] you did

  • 1:59:05

    need to protect the team from his T-Mobile deal. You need to protect the funds from the T-Mobile

  • 1:59:11

    deal. At at Okay, at your wife been looking at you like the L I wasn't married yet, but at 20 years

  • 1:59:19

    old, bro, $70,000 at 20. When I was 20, it was a lot. I did [ __ ] with it, but it was a lot for me. Yeah, it was it

  • 1:59:26

    was short lived. I bought two watches like an idiot. A Gucci car. Gucci cat. A Gucci Gucci cat. No, no, no. That was

  • 1:59:32

    before. You're not on the reparations list. Yeah, right. I'll [ __ ] up. No worries. Skipping skipping your house.

  • 1:59:39

    You talking about my family? No, I'm talking about y'all not on the reparations. Cuz why we could cuz

  • 1:59:47

    we could I'm sorry. You're not I'm not I don't

  • 1:59:55

    have that much power. He reported amount of money. For sure. For sure. We got to bust that down. I got to let your

  • 2:00:02

    question honestly if you found out your man was on the list but he was you got to split this money. Was he if he he was

  • 2:00:08

    Caribbean descent would you really report it? Yes we got to split this money you taking money for black people. [ __ ] are you crazy I'm down with you.

  • 2:00:16

    No, no, no, no, no. You Jamaican, but that's

  • 2:00:25

    only King. I don't care what I'm on the side of the money.

  • 2:00:42

    That was funny. Oh man. Please stop. Freeze. Okay. Are you

  • 2:00:49

    finished with your points cuz we're moving around the room? Oh, yeah. Yeah, man. Yes, I'm finished with my point. I'm just saying like marriage, taxes,

  • 2:00:55

    taxes. But not only taxes, though. But I do agree with Mel. Like your wife takes

  • 2:01:01

    on a lot of responsibilities. Like it makes you more comfortable as a man for you to go outside and get to it and provide. But she's doing a lot of the

  • 2:01:07

    inner stuff in the home that you don't realize it's a lot. And it'll be a strain on you if if she wasn't around.

  • 2:01:14

    discipline and also discipline. Yeah. Like I have like I have bills. They take care of a lot of [ __ ] that you may tend

  • 2:01:20

    to forget. Focus, you know, removing like, you know, all the distractions of the street so you can focus and like

  • 2:01:26

    become a better version. Oh, you can be outside and be a hoe. Go some curry chicken. You can be

  • 2:01:33

    outside and be I go outside and put some no [ __ ] dick discipline and [ __ ] Go ahead. I mean, if that's the life you

  • 2:01:38

    aspire to live, I mean, hey, whatever. Float your [ __ ] boat, [ __ ] You watch your [ __ ] level. Yo, you

  • 2:01:43

    marriage does take a different type of discipline. That's why I'm referring to the married people. I want to hear from y'all. But the discipline it take to

  • 2:01:49

    look at somebody in the face like every day they face. You ever just see the

  • 2:01:55

    shape of every day a good face either look a little different, right? Every

  • 2:02:01

    day it faces like shape shift like [ __ ] look at you. Got to stare at you until

  • 2:02:06

    one of us die. Okay, Mark. It's a beautiful thing though. This is what I say. He Paul Beer said a couple things

  • 2:02:12

    though. First he said like mar relationships take marriage off the table. He said relationships are about sex. I just think that's not true. Sex

  • 2:02:18

    are a big part of relationship romantic relationship. Ain't the the only thing he's speaking through his arrested development. And that's what I'm saying. Like there's plenty of people even I

  • 2:02:25

    even know [ __ ] that cheat that have a great healthy sort of friendship with their partner and and sex is somewhere

  • 2:02:31

    else. I'm saying like sex ain't always the thing that keeps you in a relationship. You know what I mean? There's lots of things that keep you in

  • 2:02:36

    relationship other than sex. Yeah. Like you could actually like the person. Yeah. like you want to be around. These

  • 2:02:41

    [ __ ] don't like women. These [ __ ] don't like women. Not these [ __ ] in the room, but these [ __ ] that we talking about, they don't like women.

  • 2:02:47

    They just want to sleep with them. But in terms of liking them and seeing value in them, they don't do that. That sounds

  • 2:02:53

    like what you're talking about. That is what it sounds like. That's how he sounds. That's how he sounds. I mean, I

  • 2:02:59

    I just don't think I mean my my wife I just speak.

  • 2:03:04

    No. What the [ __ ] I What? Okay, one more side. I agree. Watch your step,

  • 2:03:10

    buddy, too. You're encroaching on my territory.

  • 2:03:16

    Whoa. Wait, hold on. Don't even try it. Keep going. No, no, no, no. Keep going.

  • 2:03:21

    To be to be clear, [ __ ] We were talking about the hour three yet, boy. No, no, not male. Mel, we're talking

  • 2:03:27

    about the the discourse of feminism. I just want you to clean it up, my [ __ ] Thank you, Going to get back to that [ __ ] [ __ ] Yeah, we have to

  • 2:03:33

    have it, boy. I was telling Joe was playfully in using the language of feminism and I was saying that's my No, no, we know. But now that you said that,

  • 2:03:39

    now that you said that, we got to make it clear. I'm trying to hold you down. Look out. That was not holding down.

  • 2:03:45

    That was holding you down in the right under the water. Right. No, but so I I I

  • 2:03:50

    disagree with that point. Um there is an interesting thing he said that I think we have to be sort of critical of or

  • 2:03:56

    honest about. Marriage historically has been about money and it marriage was really a contract. It was about

  • 2:04:02

    ownership. It was a business arrangement, right? And men were giving their daughters to other men and that's why we gave dowies and land and all

  • 2:04:09

    this. I mean, it was a business arrangement. Um, so I don't want to pretend that that history doesn't exist, but I think there's lots of reasons to

  • 2:04:15

    get married other than security or safety or money. I'm not saying people don't there's good reasons to get married, having somebody with you, you

  • 2:04:22

    know, having a better financial situation, you're you're stronger financially if the two of y'all making an income. All that is true, but there's

  • 2:04:27

    really good reasons to be married. And I didn't know this until I was even being with my wife before we were married, living with her before we were married.

  • 2:04:33

    I still find greater value in the marriage. You know what I mean? Like I actually enjoy being married. And if your wife if your partner is your best

  • 2:04:40

    friend, if it's somebody you really [ __ ] with married and that [ __ ] is a whole other level of joy when you get to be home with that don't mean they don't get

  • 2:04:45

    on your nerves. Don't mean all the other [ __ ] is true, but like I wouldn't trade it for anything. And I think a lot of

  • 2:04:52

    married men I know wouldn't trade it for I won't say most, but a lot of married men I know wouldn't trade it for anything. That's all I would say. Agreed. I think that uh I think that

  • 2:05:00

    we've kind of discussed all the reasons why marriage is good, but I also do think that there are people that maybe shouldn't get married. And maybe he's

  • 2:05:06

    one of those people. Like if you still want to run around and do [ __ ] you probably shouldn't be married. But I think that when I meet people that make

  • 2:05:12

    a lot of money, have been with someone for a really long time and aren't married for some principal reason. I

  • 2:05:17

    think that that's a little foolish because of the tax benefits, because of the security blanket of being married.

  • 2:05:23

    There's a bunch of reasons to be married if you make a lot of money, especially if you are committed single or committed

  • 2:05:28

    to a single person. That being said, if you want to run around and [ __ ] a bunch of people, you probably shouldn't be married. Well, my my thing just about

  • 2:05:35

    unless you unless you have that arrangement. But wait, what I was saying to his point, he's saying, you know, you

  • 2:05:41

    get you break up, you take half of everything. You can protect yourself against that. That's true, too. Yeah. Like, you act like it's this or that.

  • 2:05:47

    You could always structure your marriage however you see fit. Mhm. Get a prenup, whatever you need written in there, and

  • 2:05:54

    now you're protected. So those things you're sitting here complaining about won't happen to you. Oh yeah. Get that little cheating clause out of there.

  • 2:06:02

    Infidelity clause. Crazy. Are you crazy girl? Let me get

  • 2:06:07

    this straight. Try sneak it in there. I [ __ ] one little insy wincy girl. You get

  • 2:06:14

    to take it off. But I don't think only I'm joking right now, by the way, cuz my girl be listening. I'm joking. Married

  • 2:06:20

    people shouldn't be on people weighing in on this. Paul Pierce not even married. I mean like what do you right Joe is what do y'all think about this? I

  • 2:06:25

    couldn't agree more with with you. Like I it's Paul Pierce talking. I'm not

  • 2:06:30

    paying them no mind. But uh I can't wait to be married. I cannot wait to get married just for the structure of it. My

  • 2:06:36

    girl just helps me to be palatable. She helps in my decision making. We find we

  • 2:06:42

    find the same [ __ ] funny. We enjoy the same music. We enjoy the same shows. Her

  • 2:06:47

    skin is soft. If that changes, we'll re-evaluate it. But like I I love Yeah.

  • 2:06:53

    I love I I love all that [ __ ] I'm with that [ __ ] I have a friend um who, you know, was she met her husband and he was

  • 2:07:01

    a playboy, but the sun rose and set on the crack of her ass, according to him,

  • 2:07:06

    and they ended up getting married. He was a playboy. He was out in the streets and he was g he he was doing very well

  • 2:07:12

    for himself, you know, very well. since they've been married, the structure and

  • 2:07:18

    discipline and just everything involved in and and and her support and love, he recently just sold his company for like

  • 2:07:24

    almost a hundred million [ __ ] dollars. I don't necessarily know. I can't I'm not a fortune teller. But with

  • 2:07:32

    the way that he conducted himself and just had girlfriend after girlfriend after girlfriend after girlfriend and then what he ended up with having a

  • 2:07:38

    structured relationship with somebody who loved and cherished him and he felt the same way back and she raising their

  • 2:07:43

    kids and stuff like that. I don't see him getting to that point without her, you know. And that's just saying like

  • 2:07:50

    just when it's when it is a good marriage and it is a good partnership with people who like and love each other

  • 2:07:55

    that that is that's the kind of thing that it affords you to become like the man that you can become. I want to also

  • 2:08:01

    add by the way evolution in the last however let's call it two years we have

  • 2:08:06

    seen some amazing prominent rich powerful wealthy single men get

  • 2:08:13

    absolutely destroyed by running around the streets doing whatever the [ __ ] they wanted. Good point. Absolutely. Yeah. I

  • 2:08:18

    agree with that. Is there anyone here that has an opposing opinion on this

  • 2:08:24

    on what? On what he said on on this on the on the mayor's topic. I think I

  • 2:08:31

    think I don't oppose what anybody's saying. I think Paul Pierce is just speaking from a skewed perspective based

  • 2:08:37

    on his career and his experiences though. So I don't necessarily think that if he was an accountant he would

  • 2:08:44

    feel that way. You know what the problem is? He didn't get with them Kate Verdians. He was over there. That [ __ ]

  • 2:08:49

    was in Boston a long time. That [ __ ] he got with them. He might be the prime

  • 2:08:55

    minister. [ __ ] you talking about. That [ __ ] was in Boston forever. He did some some other [ __ ] in Boston. He might have

  • 2:09:01

    been around. Jo, it didn't If you was in Boston, that don't mean you was with the Kings. They came across. You had a

  • 2:09:07

    choice. No, they came across and that might not be his bag. Some of his views. Listen, when that [ __ ] was on ESPN or

  • 2:09:13

    wherever he was playing poker, I was in Boston for two days and I

  • 2:09:18

    found in my prime, I found a few [ __ ] What? Yeah. Y'all y'all y'all don't know

  • 2:09:24

    if that's what make us te. They killing one of these athlete dudes

  • 2:09:29

    now cuz they caught him in Vegas on the on the on the party bus and they let like 20 white girls out. Two of them. It

  • 2:09:34

    was uh Cam from from the Saints. Cam Jordan and

  • 2:09:40

    uh Tyler. It was Cam and somebody else. It don't matter. We just in a funny place where

  • 2:09:46

    you can't even let the white girls out the party party bus. Trey Murphy. Troy Murphy. Trey. Trey Murphy. I mean Trey.

  • 2:09:53

    Troy. He nice too. Troy Murphy was nice. Trey Murphy nice too. He wasn't better than Tury. Yes, he is. He wasn't betting

  • 2:09:58

    Trey Murphy. I'm telling you. Trey Murphy is a big white boy. I know he is. [ __ ] to know. Trey Murphy is real nice. Trey Murphy is real nice. But um I just

  • 2:10:06

    think that his his view is just skewed based on his experiences. Like when them [ __ ] been rich at a young age, they

  • 2:10:11

    might think every girl in the world want their money and then they looking at girls as sexual conquest or sexual toys.

  • 2:10:17

    And so now you place BL placing everything on a sexual relationship. And

  • 2:10:22

    if you look at women like in in that light, I don't expect you to understand none of this marriage [ __ ] or want to be

  • 2:10:27

    married. Exactly. because you can get that from anywhere, anytime, any place without having to

  • 2:10:34

    And the other side he said his moms was never married. So I didn't even see it in my household. That was also his mom didn't get married till she was 70. So I

  • 2:10:40

    never saw it coming up. It's huge and now I'm out here on my own. I'm rich like you said. Like that's the part that I thought was sick. Yeah. No, that's not

  • 2:10:46

    true. That's the part that I thought was sick. That's huge in in in in our demo especially that's really really big.

  • 2:10:54

    Single motherhood is really really big. And so we don't necessarily see the importance of marriages because we've

  • 2:11:00

    never been around a marriage or just a fruitful man and woman relationship. I was about to say not even marriage. Not

  • 2:11:06

    all of us. Well, that's why I'm saying it's sick. You don't know why? Because had he had a conversation with his mom

  • 2:11:12

    and asked him and asked her, you know, what would you have preferred? Struggling as a single mom raising us on

  • 2:11:18

    our [ __ ] own or would you have preferred to be in a loving marriage with a supportive partner who could

  • 2:11:24

    raise us together? I think she would have gone with the ladder. But that has nothing to do with what he saw as a boy

  • 2:11:30

    growing up. I I understand that. I've never had that conversation with my mother. Me neither. He's single uh

  • 2:11:36

    parent kid. He's never had that conversation with my mother. What I'm saying is it would behoove him to have had that as 45 and 50 and 55. We talking

  • 2:11:45

    about like adult adult real adult people. Now I I think that you're too old for the hey, this is what I saw

  • 2:11:52

    growing up, so these are my views. At some point you have to come up with your own [ __ ] views. True. I'm not

  • 2:11:58

    disagreeing with you. However, what I'm saying so to say, but wait, let me finish. So to say that you pleased with

  • 2:12:04

    your mom being alone or not finding the one that she deemed appropriate for

  • 2:12:09

    marriage until 70 years old is sick. If you spoke to your mom, he's saying, but

  • 2:12:16

    what he's saying is she didn't get married to 70, which is why he's saying it's for old people. She got married to have somebody by her side to ride it out

  • 2:12:24

    is what he was saying. So that's what he was saying. He's like, "Oh, so for me, marriage just means he may

  • 2:12:29

    not comprehension is great." Do you think I'm I'm under the guise of his

  • 2:12:34

    mother I'm with Mel. His mother may have wanted some company before she was 70 years old. I think

  • 2:12:39

    companionship and and if you recognize that, then your mom not being married till 70 shouldn't reinforce your

  • 2:12:46

    thinking of marriage is only for old people. It should say the opposite. That's what you're saying. It should say

  • 2:12:52

    the exact opposite. And if your mom met a [ __ ] that she felt appropriate for

  • 2:12:58

    marriage and he was in the house a little more or around you a little more, no telling how that would affect your

  • 2:13:04

    thinking today. That's what I just think at 505. That's exactly what we're saying. We're saying that if he grew up

  • 2:13:11

    with a man and a woman in a household and his mother had a man, it would have affected his outlook on relationships

  • 2:13:16

    and how he sees the world. Let me finish. What we're sizing Let me finish is is different. So what? No, we're

  • 2:13:22

    really not. Cuz if he had been a he had a man in his household, his whole outlook and his whole view on

  • 2:13:28

    relationships could potentially be different. He looks at it that way based on an environment he grew up in, an

  • 2:13:34

    environment he was introduced to at 17, 18 years old, which is being an all-American athlete and all of the

  • 2:13:39

    things that come along with that. Y'all are repeating everything I said. If you I said it first. Then how do you get to

  • 2:13:46

    yes, marriage is only for old people? It's I'm sorry. Let me just say this and then you and then you clear it up. It

  • 2:13:53

    it's almost like he said he stated it to say she waited until she was 70 with intention to wait rather than that was a

  • 2:14:03

    desire that he never knew she had maybe the majority of her life and it never happened for her. And I mean my views on

  • 2:14:09

    this I've had this talk with my mom. I've spoken to my mom about marriage,

  • 2:14:15

    the lack of marriage, when you was married, how you felt about it, getting older without somebody, wanting somebody

  • 2:14:20

    to be there. I've had these talks. I don't think that nobody is signing their mom up to [ __ ] live life a certain

  • 2:14:26

    way and then at 70 at your later years, meet somebody and then yada yada yada and and we going to paint that as the

  • 2:14:31

    [ __ ] Party City. That ain't Party City. If you witness that, then why the [ __ ] would you get on a platform talking like it's Party City? I just don't

  • 2:14:38

    understand that part. If y'all do, that's great. I disagree with the [ __ ] So I I think

  • 2:14:43

    I disagree with him, too. But I I understand why he may think like that. Can I ask you something? Why have Why

  • 2:14:50

    Why haven't or why wouldn't you have that conversation with your mom?

  • 2:14:56

    I have not. Do you got the kind of moms have that conversation? My mom don't talk about stuff. Yeah. Me and my mom talk about a lot of [ __ ] but I don't

  • 2:15:02

    need If you're able to. I'm not. No, no, I'm saying some parents, some women don't like to talk about their I mean in the sense of like my mom don't talk

  • 2:15:08

    about bad experiences. She don't talk about I just seen it. I don't even need the conversation. This is a rumor. Yeah. Personally, I don't need it. I saw it. I

  • 2:15:15

    was there. I saw I saw my mom's being with the wrong person. And this is what she will

  • 2:15:20

    say to this day. Like my mom's not married now. And she my mother was married for 20 years to the wrong person

  • 2:15:26

    and eventually got divorced. And she's like, "Now I value my peace over anything else. I would much rather be

  • 2:15:32

    alone than go through what I went through before with the wrong person." So I get that. But I watch the struggle

  • 2:15:38

    going. I think there So it's like I I I see I don't have to tell Even that right there, even that right there, there's a

  • 2:15:44

    value in that. So let's just say Ice hypothetically watched his mother be married to the wrong man for 20, 30

  • 2:15:50

    years. Ice could be dead set against marriage based on just viewing that everything in all of our environment

  • 2:15:56

    shape how we see the world. That is true. That's a possibility for him. But what but to Joe's point but but to Joe's

  • 2:16:02

    point when you are an adult adult adult 40 45 50 you now have the responsibility

  • 2:16:07

    to challenge those long-held beliefs and maybe go to therapy to kind of like fix the way you're thinking. And the reason

  • 2:16:13

    why I said something about him having a conversation with his mom is because I know something about this. I to it took

  • 2:16:18

    me a long time to see my mom outside of just being my mother, you know, just like unconditionally love me. I'm your

  • 2:16:25

    child. And that's how I saw the relationship. I never bothered to ask the woman any questions about who she

  • 2:16:31

    was outside of me until it was almost too late. And that's something that I always encourage people to do. And it

  • 2:16:37

    would behoove him to have that conversation with his mom because it might change his skewed view right now.

  • 2:16:43

    Like that's the the point that I'm making. Unless unless unless his mom was

  • 2:16:48

    Paul Pierce's mom was just happy all those 30 40 years. You know what I mean? She could have been Mr. Earl could have

  • 2:16:54

    been coming down laying pipe and can you put your Yeah. Yeah. Like she could she could have had

  • 2:16:59

    a great life experience and just decide but part of that is because he's rich. Mhm. Yeah. Wham. Like like she and

  • 2:17:06

    frankly she don't need a 70-y old man marriage right now 70 to be taken care of. You know, you might need it now. You

  • 2:17:12

    might need it now. You might need it now because the money doesn't play as big of a part in your life when you start to

  • 2:17:17

    get older. But when you 50 60 running around, my son got 100 $200 million. I might not need the things that or the

  • 2:17:24

    securities that a marriage brings. That's and yeah, his whole to that point his whole his whole understanding is

  • 2:17:31

    skewed by a whole bunch of stuff that's not replicable. Like nobody very few people going to have his life and his

  • 2:17:37

    opportunity and his access and so I hope a bunch of men don't follow this man. Pierce might just be unmarable. That's

  • 2:17:44

    possible. Yeah, could be that. Like the same way we talk about women that are of a certain age that may have missed the

  • 2:17:50

    boat cuz it was too many options or they was playing around and why it won't apply for men. This [ __ ] might have

  • 2:17:56

    been unmarable for the peak uh the prime years of him where some of the women he

  • 2:18:02

    wanted didn't want him cuz he was on [ __ ] [ __ ] Some of that [ __ ] [ __ ] you can still hear in his verbage. And and and the good women are out of here. So

  • 2:18:09

    now you just left with like Mel said the [ __ ] what what did you call it earlier? the feast to the the whatever

  • 2:18:15

    you call it. Some nasty [ __ ] out there in the in the single street. The dumpster fire. Yeah, the dumpster fire. And if and if you're there, then yes,

  • 2:18:22

    these are your views. But tell us, yo, these are my views because I'm stuck out here in the dumpster fire and I didn't

  • 2:18:27

    find nobody that saw the value in me and I refused to do the work so somebody would find the value in me. Say that. That could be true.

  • 2:18:34

    Very much so. Word. I mean, it's it's it's understood that there is going to be a certain way. There's a certainty.

  • 2:18:40

    I'm not disagreeing with you. I just I'm not disagreeing with any of that. I I I believe all of that to be true. And

  • 2:18:46

    again, I'm I'm just basing it on the environment that this guy grew up in. [ __ ] I'm rich. I'm living in Boston.

  • 2:18:52

    I'm the man in Boston. It's mad single bad chicks in Boston. I don't want to settle down with none of them cuz I'm

  • 2:18:57

    selfish and I'm running around. Rich [ __ ] got to stop doing that. That [ __ ] is uh uh uh uh

  • 2:19:04

    lonely, dark, sad. And guess when you realize that depressing could go

  • 2:19:12

    dangerous risky road most nights. Most

  • 2:19:17

    nights. I'm not talking about the night that you went to the club and Vanessa Del Rio was in there with a free cousin

  • 2:19:22

    and they both sucked your dick all night long. I'm not talking about the night that you went out and had the time the

  • 2:19:29

    the the tiniest of times. No, I'm just saying. When I think about my single days, four nights a week, five nights a

  • 2:19:35

    week, you in the house by yourself. And when you come home from the club, the club be cool. And when you come home from the club until that next,

  • 2:19:41

    especially if you got some money, [ __ ] that next day you just sitting in the house doing nothing cuz you self-employed until 9:00 at night. You

  • 2:19:48

    know when 9:00 at night come, [ __ ] start hitting your phone. Yo, what you doing? Yo, such and such pop on Wednesday. D. And you repeat the cycle.

  • 2:19:55

    [ __ ] we used to be in greenhouse four and five nights a week. You just be repeating the cycle. I'm not saying that. I'm telling you that the

  • 2:20:01

    environment and in in in repeating of the cycle because it gets deep at some point you [ __ ] with money go home and

  • 2:20:08

    you have everything you want there and that high is gone now. True. There is nothing that you could go out and buy

  • 2:20:15

    that you didn't buy that you didn't purchase. So now that euphoric feeling got to come from doing something nice

  • 2:20:21

    for somebody else. That was what Will Smith said a couple months ago when he was like, "Yo, I I bought everything I

  • 2:20:26

    could buy." True. So now he smoked that interview and I agree with everything that he said. He's like, "So now you have to find out how to be happy

  • 2:20:32

    internally." True. Yeah. And a lot of [ __ ] don't even want to look inside. They can't look in the mirror, let alone look inside. You know how many times in

  • 2:20:37

    my single days when I had a couple dollars to spare, you just wanted to buy a fly pair of boots for a lady, but

  • 2:20:45

    there was no lady because you single thinking about, yo, you you you looking you see a banging ass location come

  • 2:20:52

    across your thing. You know, I'm a travel dude. So you single, you see this dope ass location and you like, damn, I

  • 2:20:57

    wonder who I could go there with. I wonder somebody I could take there with. Not no jump off [ __ ] that I'm just

  • 2:21:02

    [ __ ] somebody that I like and I want to spend time. My [ __ ] when you go on vacations, I don't know about everybody

  • 2:21:08

    else. When you go on vacations, it separates who you like from who you like. You in that room for 6 days, 7

  • 2:21:14

    days, 4 days, whatever the [ __ ] duration of time is. You sitting in that room. It ain't no she got to go home.

  • 2:21:20

    Mhm. You don't have no time off from this girl. If you ain't going to work tomorrow, y'all in this room for 4 days

  • 2:21:26

    by yourself 24/7, y'all. And if you don't like this [ __ ] and you just looking at her like a piece of ass, that

  • 2:21:31

    [ __ ] is whack. That [ __ ] going to wear off quick. Ain't no sunset. You don't care about no sun setting with Kesha. Ty

  • 2:21:37

    back, get her dusty. You know what I'm saying? You done nuted as much as you could nut.

  • 2:21:42

    Yeah. And at some point, pardon me, at some point your your brain and your eyes could [ __ ] more than you can, too. True

  • 2:21:48

    indeed. Thousand%. True. Thousand%. But good luck to Paul Pierce. Whatever

  • 2:21:53

    works. Listen, I'm I'm in my to each its own era in life. I'm trying my best not to judge most of y'all out there.

  • 2:22:00

    Whatever y'all want to do, totally fine with me. Everybody got to do what's best for them with their brief time on earth.

  • 2:22:07

    Whatever that is that makes you happy. Judging is fun. I love the judge. I like a good silence. You know, that's what

  • 2:22:12

    their thing a wife is good for. You get all your judge [ __ ] on what? You know who I'm judging right now? Please. Lars.

  • 2:22:19

    No, no. I'm sorry. I'm not judging Larsa Pippen. I'm judging him. Are you late? You late on this? Jeff Kobe? Yes. I'm

  • 2:22:25

    I'm judging him. Why? You're judging who? The dude is marrying Larsa Pippen. Who? Jeff Kobe. Jeff Kobe. He's a That's

  • 2:22:31

    her new boyfriend. Shocked to know. Former basketball player. No. Who announced that they're they're getting

  • 2:22:36

    married in November. Okay, tell me more. Why you Why you feel bad for Jeff Kobe? He found the person he loved.

  • 2:22:43

    Ah, I have so when I could be wrong when people demonstrate a certain pattern Oh

  • 2:22:51

    yeah, you're wrong. I go I might be I might be I'm open to this. I I want you to tell me how I am. Larsa Pippen seems

  • 2:22:57

    like somebody who's there for the moment. She seems like an opportunist and she seems like she's obsessed with young basketball players. I don't see

  • 2:23:03

    this lasting and I feel like for and I don't get what draws a 30 was he 30?

  • 2:23:09

    He's 31. 31 a 31 year old man again and she's 50. Do what you want. If you want to marry a 50-y old woman, that's fine.

  • 2:23:15

    It's not it's not her age. It's the fact that she's got a pattern and a type and she seems like an opportunist to me. And

  • 2:23:21

    I could be wrong. Do you think opportunists don't get married? Um, yeah, they do. They do. I'm just saying

  • 2:23:27

    I'm I'm I'm judging them cuz I'm like, "Bro, you don't see this. You don't see the play." You know, I watch her get

  • 2:23:32

    married. I watch her do the reality shows. Like she it's like she's making money off the marriages, off the relationships. And what makes you think

  • 2:23:37

    that he doesn't see the play? I was That's what I was gonna say. You might play. School me. That's what I'm saying. Some [ __ ] see the play and just be all

  • 2:23:44

    right with the [ __ ] Some [ __ ] know the play, see the play, and [ __ ] it. All right. I'm here for the ride, too. Yeah.

  • 2:23:50

    Okay. That's a good That's a good point. If If he know that and sign up for that, then yeah, you're not a victim. You're a

  • 2:23:55

    volunteer at that point. That's That's a great point. I I always I assume everybody's being earnest, so I always How do you How do you How do you feel

  • 2:24:01

    about Britney Rener and Kevin Gates marriage or alleged marriage? I haven't thought about it. I'm fascinated by it.

  • 2:24:07

    Think about it. I'm fascinated by it. Um I want to see if if there are parallels for you. I think the difference and

  • 2:24:13

    again I could be wrong. She's been on the internet. There's a pattern of behavior. But she seems to have interrupted her pattern and made like a

  • 2:24:19

    very a very like stark like look, I'm changing my life. I'm going to be somebody else. Lamont Hill. Again, I

  • 2:24:24

    could be wrong. I'm just saying I'm a sucker. I'm I'm I'm starting by saying I believe people be earnest and and and and she may. I'm not saying I'm not

  • 2:24:31

    calling your name saying that that's not true. I'm saying that most times when these women get married, they've shown

  • 2:24:38

    that to the person that they're marrying. Not to say that it's true or not. Like whatever Britney showed Kevin Gates as far as I'm turning my life

  • 2:24:44

    around, I'm willing to adopt this new yada yada yada yada. I don't know what Larson P is kicking in this in this

  • 2:24:50

    guy's ear, she might be saying, I'mma turn my life over to God now. And and I'm not saying this about Britney Rener

  • 2:24:56

    because I don't know this to be true about her, but sometimes also women look at that clock like she's again I'm not

  • 2:25:04

    saying she's older or anything, but they start to realize, yo, it's all like what I was doing being the it girl. Yeah.

  • 2:25:11

    That time might have passed me a little bit. It's a whole new crop out there that's that's running around it. So it's

  • 2:25:17

    it's almost settled down time. Let me find something that a little bit more stable now. can't run the life that I

  • 2:25:22

    used to or I get to that point like Joe was just talking about where I am quote unquote an unmarriable because I

  • 2:25:30

    bullshitted all this time but now don't nobody want to take me serious. You've convinced me. Yeah. You convinced me to

  • 2:25:35

    give to to not be so skeptical. That's fair. Yeah. And there there's plenty of women that there there's

  • 2:25:42

    plenty of women that find their identity in whatever their role is in their

  • 2:25:48

    partner's life. M also so right like who am I to say that Britney is on [ __ ]

  • 2:25:55

    She met somebody this is his uh belief system and his religion and yada yada

  • 2:26:00

    yada. She's rocking with that [ __ ] can't come and say listen for weeks now I've been wanting to come and talk about

  • 2:26:06

    uh all the I can't talk about it but the new women that are turning faith and

  • 2:26:12

    covering up and just it's a lot it's a lot of being converted. Oh, I didn't I didn't know that. Oh, it's a it's a

  • 2:26:18

    wave. It's a wave happening currently. What do you think the wave is? And but who am I to Islam? Yes. Dope. Women that

  • 2:26:28

    live that life. Who am I to come say there's nothing I can say? I think

  • 2:26:33

    that's at some point you look at yourself in the mirror every day, Mark, and you and you want to change. You want

  • 2:26:39

    to change it. Whether it's converting or just following God, you want to change

  • 2:26:44

    your life. Some of them just look at it like, "Yo, what I've been doing ain't working. It ain't like if you keep doing the same thing over and over and get the

  • 2:26:50

    same results." She like, "Yo, no, it it's not it's not working for the long term for what they want." No, it may not work internally, but it may work. I

  • 2:26:57

    mean, instant gratification is a thing. Yeah. Until it stops. Until until you get 77 pocketbooks, until you have every

  • 2:27:03

    car that you could drive, until you've been to every restaurant, until you have all of these material items, and none of

  • 2:27:08

    that [ __ ] when you go home at night and lay down on that pillow makes you happy. You still feel empty inside. So now I

  • 2:27:14

    got to look for something different. And I agree with you on that because there's a lot of people. Guess who make you feel better? The post office [ __ ] that you

  • 2:27:19

    [ __ ] on for the last 30 years. I agree with you. There's some people that that I know personally. But Larson

  • 2:27:25

    got hurt a baller that that he ain't that. Go look at his career. He he her

  • 2:27:30

    net worth might be higher than his. Probably is. I mean especially with Yeah. Is he a current player? Former

  • 2:27:36

    former played overseas and [ __ ] like that. Yeah. No. Yeah. No. I mean he he ain't no Scotty Pippen or or Michael

  • 2:27:41

    Jordan once removed. But I I I I think for me, part of it might just be my reality show meter. You know what I

  • 2:27:47

    mean? When when I'm around her, I just read her I read everything as a setup for something else. But what they were saying when you walked out was like

  • 2:27:53

    there's also the possibility he's in on that he's not a sucker. He's that he's going with the play too. Like maybe he knows exactly what he's walking into and

  • 2:27:58

    he's okay with it. And if that's the case, go for it. Chill. Chill. Miz. You

  • 2:28:04

    can't do that. You can't do that to Larson Miz. But I Larson rubbed me the wrong way, man. Well, yeah. Me, too.

  • 2:28:11

    That's all. But as a man rubbing them as as a man probably is every every day on

  • 2:28:17

    the internet as a man you have to find the restraint to not do that right.

  • 2:28:24

    Yeah. Like do what? Too many of us know too many women. What's that though for you? What Mark just did with with Larsa?

  • 2:28:31

    Like I'm saying on the internet you're going to see you're going to see the lady that you knew for the last

  • 2:28:38

    25 10 years and you know her Carfax. Mhm. Just based off how she been moving

  • 2:28:43

    out there. And then one day she going to bump into a [ __ ] and they going to profess they love and be married. You

  • 2:28:49

    have to fight the urge to say damn [ __ ] like you marrying that this [ __ ] done

  • 2:28:55

    been in the street done [ __ ] him. You can't like we can't. You know why [ __ ] You know why [ __ ] don't though?

  • 2:29:00

    Because and then you we learn don't care either. Well not just that but but we've seen what happens when that goes it

  • 2:29:07

    separate ways and she's right back to what she was doing things. It's almost evaluated. Yeah. You still you still

  • 2:29:13

    that? Yeah. You can't do that. It's like you just put on pause for a minute. Like if you see a slide fell in love or

  • 2:29:18

    getting married or Yeah. You got to just kind of wish him the best. Yeah. Maybe

  • 2:29:24

    she can't can't rain on anybody's parade. If she married a dude from the post office to use Ish's example, like I would probably be more inclined to be

  • 2:29:29

    like, "Okay, she's she's settling." I mean, she might have a physical type, though. That's true. Her physical type could be tall, athletic. I think [ __ ]

  • 2:29:37

    always find empathy when she's dating a [ __ ] from the post office. because it seems more genuine. But to who? To the masses. The

  • 2:29:45

    people that are judging. And the message for anybody out there is not to live your life based on what the

  • 2:29:52

    masses think about it. True. That's fair. Yeah. Yeah. Especially when it

  • 2:29:57

    come to your love, who fills who fills you up, who make you feel good, who's

  • 2:30:02

    sucking your dick, who's rubbing you down, massaging the C CBD oil, all that good [ __ ] Yeah. Mind your business. I

  • 2:30:08

    don't give a [ __ ] what you think. Hey, like I used to say to [ __ ] back in the day long long long long long time ago. Hey, hey, [ __ ] if you had a and you

  • 2:30:15

    see me with it, [ __ ] you should be a PL. Hey, you know what I'm going to do? I'm having a slice. And if you still

  • 2:30:22

    watching, I assume that you had a slice, too. I missed that slice. If you still

  • 2:30:28

    watching, you missed that slice. That's a If you're still watching, you missed that slice. So, don't come tell me, "Oh,

  • 2:30:33

    yo, she used to be in the Yo, she used to be behind the dumpster with Rah." Guess what? I cleaned all that up. Hey,

  • 2:30:41

    I hosed it down. I put that thing right in the dog bath. Purel. Come on now. Lights on. Got

  • 2:30:49

    the dog on. Got the dog. Hey, I sent that thing to the hair salon, the nail

  • 2:30:55

    salon, the refurbished [ __ ] salon, and every other salon I could find. Cat daddy, that is a rescue dog now. Look,

  • 2:31:03

    whatever you had, it should be a little different. Yeah. Different hairstyle. Know that dog. Different for breed. Them

  • 2:31:08

    rescue dogs be loyal too. Come on now. They hated where they was at. They hated

  • 2:31:13

    that last home. Come on now. That's nasty. I don't care. That's

  • 2:31:19

    nasty. I don't care, [ __ ] I say rescue dog, [ __ ] But yeah. Well, you know what I'm saying. Not a rescue dog. Clean them up. Clean up. I'm just trying.

  • 2:31:25

    Rescue [ __ ] Yeah, we know. We know. Rescue. I usually meet [ __ ] like you and you clean them up and then I cleans

  • 2:31:32

    them up, [ __ ] Yeah. Do they end up going back to the other [ __ ] Oh, I don't know. I don't keep tabs when I'm done.

  • 2:31:37

    Oh, you don't care about that? I don't care what you do when I'm done. Done is done. And you ask me about a life I

  • 2:31:43

    don't even remember, man. I've been my girl six years. I'm only looking forward. I'm only looking forward. I don't even

  • 2:31:48

    remember these times that we speak about. These are the times we all wish for. I don't remember. I'm sorry. That's

  • 2:31:54

    what I respect about you. Holy man. That's what I respect about this room.

  • 2:32:00

    No, for real. Everybody, I don't know if I could do this pod with a bunch of single [ __ ] Oh, come on, man. We not

  • 2:32:06

    doing this. clear. Yeah, I know. Go play. God damn it.

  • 2:32:12

    All right, moving on. So, which of our New York residents is is going to uh uh tell us about this New York airport

  • 2:32:17

    [ __ ] I was just looking. It's freeze. I mean, it's I mean, we we talked about it a little bit, but this [ __ ] is bad. No,

  • 2:32:24

    it's expanded since we were talking about it before. It was just like, oh, it's just [ __ ] up there. New York Times

  • 2:32:29

    article on it. Just went public. That's all. No, no, it just went public. When we spoke about it, there was

  • 2:32:35

    construction and that was it. I I believe that I I said it wasn't. I said that that wasn't construction. I said

  • 2:32:40

    that from the rip. It wasn't construction cuz easily remedied. All right. Be clear. There is construction.

  • 2:32:45

    True. Okay. But that ain't the reason for this [ __ ] That's my back. That might be what they telling y'all is the reason for this [ __ ] Uh my [ __ ] if

  • 2:32:51

    you own one of the biggest or most important, not biggest, but one of the most important airports in the country, international airports at that in the

  • 2:32:58

    country or maybe in the nation to ISIS point, my [ __ ] if construction is your issue, you have on the clock [ __ ]

  • 2:33:04

    working around the construction issue to remedy it, right? Yeah. LAX has been under construction for God knows how

  • 2:33:10

    long and it has not stopped. You know, their fam, I was flying out. They told us, "Yo, it's only one lane open. You

  • 2:33:17

    y'all are number 39. it. My plane was leaving at 6, [ __ ] I left at almost nine o'clock.

  • 2:33:23

    That's not construction. That's not construction. That's short staff. Yo, y'all. And so a lot of the staffing issues they are saying because they said

  • 2:33:29

    that the FAA that regulates NORC is out of Philly. Didn't they just fire a whole

  • 2:33:34

    bunch of uh Didn't There you go. Trump cut everything. There you go. Trump. Yeah. Your cousin. So that's be clear.

  • 2:33:42

    So So they said it's a combination of things. I think nobody really has the balls to blame it on him. Yeah. That's

  • 2:33:49

    what I really think. I think nobody has the balls to blame it on their administration for fear of losing their job or getting found out. And so now

  • 2:33:55

    they blaming it on a multitude of things, construction, layoffs, etc., etc. If it's only one lane open in the

  • 2:34:02

    airport, that's scary. Bro, I left I left on one day. They hit us with the one one lane situation. Back planes up.

  • 2:34:09

    They're talking about one excuse me, not one lane, one runway. Yeah. runway to accommodate to accommodate all

  • 2:34:16

    flights incoming and outgoing one runway. Oh, I didn't know that. For an international for for international

  • 2:34:22

    airport. I didn't know that. That's already crazy. That's insane. But what was interesting to me is on the return,

  • 2:34:28

    they told us we were delayed because of an issue at NORC, but they never said it was because of construction. They said

  • 2:34:34

    it's windy. It's windy. It's wind conditions. So, so if it's if it's it seems like you're giving a bunch of

  • 2:34:39

    different reasons [ __ ] to just say something or anything that is applicable at the time. So 2 weeks ago, 3 weeks

  • 2:34:45

    ago, I went to Virginia. That Monday I was coming home. Mhm. They said it was

  • 2:34:51

    the rain. Right. So they postponed my flight. I flew out Tuesday morning. I came straight to the power. Remember?

  • 2:34:58

    Boom. This Sunday when I was leaving, they said it was the wind to ISIS Point. They said it was windy in New Jersey.

  • 2:35:04

    Okay. Right. I'm like, "Yo, my [ __ ] it's been windy since we was kids."

  • 2:35:09

    What the [ __ ] are we talking about? So, is it the the the elements? Is it construction? My flight was leaving um

  • 2:35:15

    Sunday. This Sunday, it was supposed to be at 6:20. The second I returned the car, got to the gate, they said 9:40.

  • 2:35:22

    While I'm sitting there negotiating, they said, cuz I was trying to find another airline, they said 11:05. Yeah.

  • 2:35:28

    I took my dumb ass downstairs, got me another rental car, and drove home all the way home. That flight did leave at

  • 2:35:34

    11:05 and it got to something after 11:00. It got here at like 1:00 which

  • 2:35:40

    means the runways cleared up. It didn't get less windy. The runways cleared up which allowed for more traffic to come

  • 2:35:46

    through and that's really what happened. And not only that, they're also diverting flights to other air like some

  • 2:35:51

    people who are supposed now. Yeah. But some Exactly. I encourage anybody listening if you can avoid uh EWR Newark

  • 2:35:59

    airport till the end of June. Mid June is when they they said Cory they said

  • 2:36:05

    July with our broadcast. Uhhuh. They said July. Yeah. They was saying July. The middle of July. Man, if you get a V jersey or whatever and just do it

  • 2:36:16

    [ __ ] [ __ ] the trains don't work. You get shanked in the [ __ ] train station, man. You be the train. You know

  • 2:36:21

    the [ __ ] the air. [ __ ] She said Penn Station. No, you

  • 2:36:28

    said you go all the time. This [ __ ] act like Philly is [ __ ] Guns and Rainbow. He act like he didn't just move right to

  • 2:36:34

    New Jersey. Like enough enough. No, he might have did that for love. Philly

  • 2:36:39

    ain't [ __ ] sunshine and rainbows. [ __ ] this is much better in this hell.

  • 2:36:45

    If you can avoid EWR until 80,000 houses, end of

  • 2:36:50

    June, pardon me, early July. I recommend you do. So, uh, I'm supposed

  • 2:36:56

    to be flying out to Boston soon and I'mma do JFK or LaGuardia. I might is nice now. They cleaned up. They hosed

  • 2:37:03

    her down. Look, you can even shop in that [ __ ] house now. But LaGuardia and JFK are really nice. JFK

  • 2:37:08

    always been good for me. I just don't like the distance for JFK. I don't like either one of them [ __ ] JFK JFK before they redid it. I

  • 2:37:16

    remember they just redid it first and then the Guardia took ages for them to redo and

  • 2:37:22

    then they did redo some of Newark. It's a shame the Newark is going to say better than New is amazing. Is gorgeous.

  • 2:37:29

    Well, neither one of them [ __ ] airports better than New York. That's not true. You got hours to shop cuz your plane ain't never going to leave. So you

  • 2:37:36

    get a whole meal and [ __ ] I got JFK is a much better airport than New York. It's a much better airport than New York. They got better shops by far. By

  • 2:37:43

    far. Everything about JFK is better than Newport. that [ __ ] one time. I don't know. I just don't go. I'm not going

  • 2:37:49

    there. I like I said, I'll go to New You know what Newick is? The United Hub. You can't even catch You can't even catch

  • 2:37:54

    some of the flys from Newark. Exactly. Jersey like I'm not doing this to United

  • 2:38:00

    is the hub. Atlanta got like Delta, you know what I mean? Philly got America. Y'all got United. Come on.

  • 2:38:07

    There's a government thing. Don't put that on us. No, I'm a problem with that. Yeah, I don't understand the problem. I like I like a lot of the fly city

  • 2:38:13

    locations. You got connect and [ __ ] man. It's fine. It's a fine airport. Just I just find living in Jersey. Y'all like the armpit of the east coast. If

  • 2:38:19

    you had to pick up If you had to pick up United, well, he might be trolling. I'm dead. No, I'm dead ass. I would take Delta if I had to pick. You would

  • 2:38:25

    definitely take Delta. You would probably take a couple more before you said United as your preferred hub. Why?

  • 2:38:33

    Oh, yeah. But then again, I'm I'm United on your level. I'm United all day. I

  • 2:38:39

    like United, too. That's on brand for you. Shocked about him. Yeah. Yeah. Whatever that means. H. No, you talking

  • 2:38:45

    about me. No, you said me. No, you talking you said fan. What you got? Aisha in YouTube. So, both of you know,

  • 2:38:51

    I don't know what that means. Um, speaking of [ __ ] that uh Trump's [ __ ] up for the country, does anybody have any thoughts or insight on this uh movie

  • 2:38:58

    tariff, foreign movie tariff? [ __ ] Why Donald Trump?

  • 2:39:05

    He's going to put 100% tariff on all foreign movies because Hollywood is struggling.

  • 2:39:11

    That's what he said. And we supposed to be making our own movies and we watching other people's movies and they bringing their movies into the country. And look

  • 2:39:18

    at this [ __ ] is like what? But help me help me understand. Do we watch that many of other people's I I'm not a movie. No, it's not that. He's talking

  • 2:39:25

    about filming. He's talking about filming outside of the country. Oh, that's true. I see what you mean. Like like Sent was filmed in Canada, right?

  • 2:39:32

    Or Australia, excuse me. Um same. Yeah. Yeah. Australia. It might as well be. I

  • 2:39:38

    know. Yeah. I don't know. because at the end of the credit I remember looking and being like, "Oh [ __ ] that [ __ ] wasn't the," you know, because it's cheaper.

  • 2:39:43

    It's easier. Yeah. Um I guess I mean got a point. I just don't know if that's the right solution. I tend to just my

  • 2:39:48

    default is to say that ain't the right answer, but I don't know. It's not the right solution. It's just all you going to do is make movie ticket prices go up.

  • 2:39:54

    There's also just like certain like [ __ ] that you can't find in America. I mean, America's vast and has a bunch of

  • 2:40:00

    different shoot Game of Thrones and Watts, right? Talk about my [ __ ] What the [ __ ] Any Mission Impossible. Any

  • 2:40:06

    Mission Impossible all over the world. um all of the bonds.

  • 2:40:12

    Yo dog, this [ __ ] just goes back to the whole factories and all that other [ __ ] No, he's No, what he's trying to do is

  • 2:40:17

    he's trying to punish Hollywood because it's primarily liberal and he has always been ex, you know, excluded from from

  • 2:40:25

    the cool kids table. LA and New York. Don't [ __ ] with him. Yeah. Yeah. So

  • 2:40:31

    that's that's it. That's it. He's just trying to punish the people that just don't [ __ ] with him and have never, you know, invited him into the fold. I think

  • 2:40:36

    he's just waking up in the morning seeing some [ __ ] be like I think he trying to make I think he just keep trying to make distractions to go

  • 2:40:42

    against from the real [ __ ] he's lacking which is which is real policy crumbling we going to make a diversion we going to

  • 2:40:48

    throw something up in the air make it blow up it's going to distract the people and we not really doing the work that needs to be done beneath the scenes

  • 2:40:55

    well did you since we since we back to the escape oh right never mind no go

  • 2:41:00

    ahead I'm talking no I was just saying he also announced and I want to know your thoughts on this he's talking about getting rid of section

  • 2:41:06

    8 and saying that they're going to put a cap for able-bodied adults to 2 years.

  • 2:41:13

    Okay. Seriously? Yeah. You're going to get rid of section 8. At the same time, half of the country, not half of the

  • 2:41:18

    country, but a a large portion of the country are losing their employment. Yeah. How's that work? And we and we at

  • 2:41:26

    record house prices. How's that work for the economy that you're going to rescue? Well, he doesn't give a [ __ ] I think it

  • 2:41:31

    goes right back to what you said. He's just he's just sending signals to his base to distract just talk. But this is

  • 2:41:37

    this is the real killer. Paid from anybody. No. Yo, but but this a real killer. A huge part of Donald Trump's

  • 2:41:42

    base is sections. Yeah. We keep looking at it like, yo, it's just a liberal outside states. No.

  • 2:41:48

    A lot of Donald Trump's base in the inner America. They poor white people.

  • 2:41:53

    Yes. But they're that are on section 8, my [ __ ] So when you drop section 8, what happens to

  • 2:41:59

    them now? Billy in the trailer. He [ __ ] up. Yo, dog. What are you talking about?

  • 2:42:06

    It's going backfiring, my [ __ ] And they don't got jobs out here. This [ __ ] is crazy.

  • 2:42:11

    What am I saying? That's wrong. Can't do that. Hey, Flip.

  • 2:42:16

    You sound good. You sound good, boy. Yeah. Oh, look. Please. No one here has

  • 2:42:22

    a Thunderbolt review. I saw it and I hated it. And they killing all the movie. Yeah, I saw it. Oh, it's not

  • 2:42:28

    Thunderbolts. It's the new Avengers. It's the new I know they changed the billboards. That's That's what they

  • 2:42:35

    doing. That's part of their marketing. But that's not the name of the movie now. The movie was all It's all part of the marketing. The movie was always

  • 2:42:40

    Thunderbolts. If you ever look, it had an asterisk next to it. Spoiler alert, at the end of the movie, they are

  • 2:42:46

    announced as the new Avengers and the new title comes up and couple day a day

  • 2:42:51

    or so after the movies come out, they're up there ripping off Thunderbolts and now putting the new Avengers up there.

  • 2:42:56

    Really? Oh, that's disgusting. And Marvel must have a new owner. Where's Stanley? Rest in peace. Rest in peace.

  • 2:43:03

    Where is Stanley when you're near the movie? Thunderbolts are not the new Avengers. I don't care how many people

  • 2:43:09

    up. But I'm not going to get I just did not like the the way the trailer portrayed who the uh protagonist was in

  • 2:43:18

    the movie. They didn't really show it. So, it was kind of like, "Oh [ __ ] this motherfucker's powerful as hell. He's this. He's this. He's this." Again, I

  • 2:43:24

    don't follow the comics. I don't care. I am an MCU viewer. I just follow the movies. It was a new Avengers in the

  • 2:43:29

    comic books. No, I'm not saying nothing about that. I'm talking about the movie itself, though. It felt like a let down.

  • 2:43:35

    Like once you found out, okay, this is who these [ __ ] is fighting and this is how y'all beat this [ __ ] Are you

  • 2:43:41

    serious? So it wasn't well. Oh, wait. So it's the So they're the good guys. You're talking about the It's Suicide

  • 2:43:46

    Squad, but but that's what I was going to say. It looks like Suicide Squad, but that's the Suicide Squad was bad. But that's the antagonist.

  • 2:43:54

    I I don't want to spoil it, so no. Rather than protagonist, it's the antagonist. The evil. Oh, excuse me. I

  • 2:43:59

    said protagonist. Pardon me. Pardon me. Pardon me. Mel knows the words, not me. But yes, the evil. The evil. Mhm. Yeah.

  • 2:44:06

    It was I was like, really? I'm cool. It didn't look like um I'm so cool on

  • 2:44:11

    Thunderbolts because I know my mom and her friend group absolutely love our TV and movie recommendations on this

  • 2:44:18

  • 2:45:00

    Apple TV. This is not ad. It's just a really good show. Uh, you were saying Mark, I was going a whole different

  • 2:45:05

    direction. I was We didn't talk about Diddy. This is the Diddy trial opened up

  • 2:45:11

    this week. Well, just just jury selection right now. No, but it what I thought was interesting about the jury selection was how they're deciding how

  • 2:45:16

    they're getting rid of people. Did you did you see this? So they they interviewed 150 people. Uh they gave

  • 2:45:22

    them all a questionnaire and it's the normal VAR process. You know, they're trying to get through, you know, to see if you can uh if you can be impartial,

  • 2:45:29

    to see if you've had bad experiences, whether you've been experienced sexual assault, uh etc. But then they gave them

  • 2:45:34

    a list of celebrities that they had to know or not know. And the list was

  • 2:45:41

    interesting. They asked them if they knew Michael B. Jordan. They asked him if they knew who Kanye West was. They

  • 2:45:47

    asked him if they knew who Mike Myers was. They asked him if they knew who Kid

  • 2:45:52

    Cuy was. Uh I thought the list was interesting. One, it's a window into

  • 2:45:58

    maybe whose name is going to come up in trial. Yeah. Yeah. The Mike Myers thing was kind of a a bit of a red herring for

  • 2:46:03

    me. I was like, I don't know that Mike Myers name won't come up at trial. Like we don't know, right? I was just

  • 2:46:09

    surprised that I wasn't expecting, you know, Wayne's world, but like well well Puff's [ __ ] network is we don't know

  • 2:46:15

    who might pop up in this [ __ ] But I was also thinking like who would be in a jury pool that has never do I

  • 2:46:20

    never heard of Kanye West? Yeah. I was I don't know if I want a jury pool that doesn't know who Kanye West or Mike Myers is. I think that's a test though.

  • 2:46:26

    It's a tactic. It's a test too because in in the jury selection process, you should be removed from the story. Right.

  • 2:46:33

    Right. Because if you watch the story on the news, like during the OJ trial, they told him don't turn the TVs on. Yeah.

  • 2:46:39

    Like you're not supposed to have any information already or heard of anything. So if you Kanye West comes

  • 2:46:44

    across your algorithm, Yeah. If Kid Cuy comes across your algorithm, then more than likely Shawn Combmes has come

  • 2:46:50

    across your algorithm and you might have already be impartial. But I'm just saying like if you've never if you're a

  • 2:46:55

    juror and you've lived in America and never heard of Kanye and you've never heard of Mike Myers and you've never heard of all these people, I'm like, are

  • 2:47:01

    you a normal person? Like I don't know if a normal person could go at this stage in 2025 and not know any of these

  • 2:47:06

    people find 12 people that not know any of them names. That that's what I'm saying. I don't think I don't think it's

  • 2:47:12

    possible. I get I get your point to be people being disconnected from the story. But I think this is one of them cases like OJ where we not even going to

  • 2:47:18

    pretend you disconnected from the story. We just want to pretend we just want somebody who can be impartial despite knowing the story or or K Cuddy. Like if

  • 2:47:25

    you bring King, pardon me, K Cuddy into the to the fold, you know the rumors are surrounding Puff and K Cuddy, right? You

  • 2:47:31

    get what I'm saying? So all of those things you you ain't even a rumor cuz Cody said that [ __ ] We didn't say it.

  • 2:47:37

    No, I feel that [ __ ] You know what I mean? I ain't indicting a [ __ ] I'm just saying that um you kind of want to

  • 2:47:43

    try and attempt like it's no grownup person that really don't know who Shawn Combmes is, but you want to attempt in

  • 2:47:50

    in your best efforts to have it be um unbiased. Yeah, I think unbiased is the goal. I I'd be skeptical of somebody if

  • 2:47:57

    somebody told me they didn't know who Michael B. Jordan, Kanye West, Mike Myers, was I think they were lying. Was there anybody else on the list other

  • 2:48:02

    than those four? Uh, there were a few. Uh, Dawn Dawn from they raised Dawn. Okay. From um Dirty Dirty Money and and

  • 2:48:11

    Danny Kane. That's what I'm trying to think of. Who else? I'm trying to see I'm trying to pull up the list now, but those are the big ones. I have a

  • 2:48:17

    question for you, Mark, when you finish. Yeah, go ahead, bro. What do you say to someone that the

  • 2:48:22

    closer this trial comes, right, that actually starts to get nervous and feel bad for him, right? Do they express that

  • 2:48:30

    publicly or do you feel like because they'll be judged, they have to internalize it? What do you say to that?

  • 2:48:36

    Like just feel bad and now I'm nervous. Now it's looking like he's about to go forever and my relationship with him was

  • 2:48:44

    this regardless of what the people see. Do you feel like you talking about potential draw or just people in general? Just a person like somebody

  • 2:48:49

    who's connected to him, a friend of Yeah, he's a talking about like him. Oh, not me. No, not you. But people like

  • 2:48:54

    him. Like him. I mean, one of the people like you, [ __ ] What? But but I

  • 2:49:00

    wouldn't have no problem saying that. Oh, man. I want him to answer cuz you're not going you you're not going I want him to answer it cuz I don't think

  • 2:49:05

    you're going to answer the question honestly. Okay. I think you're going to [ __ ] around. Yeah, cuz I And you

  • 2:49:10

    mastered that and I understand why. Like I have to move like that. But I want to know when you express Mark has more

  • 2:49:17

    empathy than me. No, I just feel like it's hard to I feel like in the world that we live in today, it is hard to express that. But you would get judged

  • 2:49:24

    for expressing, you know, your your concern for a person who might have done bad and like damn, I just hope

  • 2:49:30

    everything works out. Like how does a person I think they should be honest about that. I mean, I think even if they

  • 2:49:35

    get judged, I mean that's that's the risk of telling the truth, right? I mean, you know, I work with people I do

  • 2:49:40

    a lot of work with prisoners. I've been working with prisons for decades. Some of them did the crimes. I just think they got too much time. Some of them I don't believe. Some believe some of them

  • 2:49:46

    I believe are innocent. Others I believe like you shouldn't get 30 years for doing X. You know what I mean? And it's

  • 2:49:52

    tough to say when someone's been harmed, you know? Yeah, he did it, but he still

  • 2:49:57

    shouldn't get life, you know? So, when it comes to Diddy, I think I don't think anybody's defending what they saw on

  • 2:50:02

    tape that we know Diddy did. I think the question becomes for people, for some people, the people you're talking about

  • 2:50:08

    is one, is he has he done everything that he's accused of? Because once once the floodgates open, you had thousands

  • 2:50:13

    of people accused him of everything. He did some of that [ __ ] Some of it I'm confident he didn't do, right? We don't

  • 2:50:18

    know. That's what the trial is for. Um and then the second question is, will the punishment fit the crime? You know,

  • 2:50:25

    there's rumors that Oh, no. It's not rumors. He confirmed that they rejected the settlement, right? I don't know what the settlement offer was exact. I've

  • 2:50:31

    heard 5 years. I've heard other numbers. I don't know what's true. But that puff rejected the puff rejected the

  • 2:50:36

    settlement. There's a plea deal on the plea deal. I'm saying I'm sorry. I said settle. I mean plea. I'm sorry. they they rejected the plea deal. So, we know

  • 2:50:43

    that there is a number out there that's that's tangible that was offered. Um, for some people, the fact that he

  • 2:50:50

    rejected that will take away their sympathy. Like, you had you had an opportunity to get a lower number. Now, if you get roofed, that's on you unless

  • 2:50:57

    you think you're innocent, right? So, all these all these things play out. For me, it's going to come down to what's in the trial and what comes out. I'm

  • 2:51:02

    confident that Diddy did some of that [ __ ] but I'm not confident at what the details are until I see you answer my question as far as the people. I'm

  • 2:51:08

    saying they should speak out and tell the truth despite the regardless. Regardless, I think that's that's always the right answer. And I think we have to

  • 2:51:13

    be more honest about that because we're in a culture now where we only defend people who are innocent. True. And part of the criminal legal system and part of

  • 2:51:19

    the the the structure of it in my estimation is not just to protect the innocent, but also to make sure that

  • 2:51:25

    people who do bad things don't get excessive punishment. That's why we don't have cruel and unusual punishment, you know. So, so we have to think about

  • 2:51:31

    all those things and that means sometimes taking a tough position to I got burnt by that last week. Uh I I I I

  • 2:51:37

    was working with a brother who was locked up for 22 years for for murder and I worked with him. I mentored him. I

  • 2:51:42

    talked to him. He's been home for two years. He kic he he just got arrested last week for murdering somebody else. Mm- I don't feel I don't feel that I was

  • 2:51:50

    wrong for Okay, that has to affect your part standing.

  • 2:51:59

    You're getting desperate, man. It's okay. No, it's all you defended. What? I

  • 2:52:04

    didn't defend him, but I wanted him to come home, but you know, because he he was reformed, rehabilitated. He was he became a journalist in prison, you know,

  • 2:52:11

    all these things. Wow. Yes. That's something that these are the things that he's saying. You're talking about the brother. There was a story recently.

  • 2:52:16

    Mhm. Okay. Last week. Got it. Yeah. And And so those are the moments. He came home and killed somebody else.

  • 2:52:22

    Allegedly. He's accused of it. He's charged with it. Yeah. He's charged with it. He got arrested last week. And I

  • 2:52:28

    knew him well. How did you feel when you saw that? I was heartbroken. I was heartbroken for the for the woman he

  • 2:52:33

    allegedly killed. I was heartbroken for all the people, all the prisoners who we work with to get rehabilitated and to

  • 2:52:39

    get to do the right thing and to get sentenced, you know, because this set everybody back. This sets everybody back. When you fight for bail reform,

  • 2:52:44

    when you fight for prison reform, it's hard when you fight for abolition, it's hard to say that cuz they're always going to say, "What about him?" Had he

  • 2:52:50

    served his full sentence or did he get some I think he did the whole he did. No, he did. He did. They gave him the

  • 2:52:56

    whole thing. Okay. He he ate the whole thing and um and now he's going back. So, but all that to say, so for me, I

  • 2:53:03

    understand the challenge of standing with people who are quote unquote guilty. Yes. But that's all part of the process. And with Diddy, we got this

  • 2:53:09

    Cassie tape, which he fought to get suppressed. Suppressed because they said it would prejudice the jury. And I'm

  • 2:53:15

    seeing mixed reports on that. Like sometimes uh some in some reports, they're saying they will allow that

  • 2:53:20

    video evidence. And in my recent reports, I'm seeing they're saying that it's undecided and as of now, they will

  • 2:53:26

    not yet. So, I'm uncertain of that. Uh, I'll answer your question anyway, even

  • 2:53:32

    though you looking for Mark Anthony. [ __ ] you, [ __ ] No, because I feel bad when I look at his kids. Yeah, because

  • 2:53:37

    when we ask you this question, I I seen you I You got to remember what he wasn't here when the [ __ ] was first going on.

  • 2:53:43

    I'm going to be mindful what I say. You know, like I seen you battle, in my

  • 2:53:48

    opinion, your true feelings and how you have how you want to come off to the

  • 2:53:54

    masses. I seen that in real time. And that's no disrespect to you. You just have a job to do. No, don't don't don't paint him wrong. I'm I'm battling the

  • 2:54:01

    person that I knew versus the person that people are saying they know. Sorry,

  • 2:54:07

    that's what he said. That's what I'm That's what I'm saying. But let me clear cuz it wasn't a battle with what I wanted to say and what I didn't know.

  • 2:54:12

    No, because when when it first happened when you've been to the party. Hold on. Wait, wait, wait. When it when it first happened, everybody just didn't have

  • 2:54:17

    that view of Puff. But listen, I don't give a [ __ ] what they say about him. Now, the [ __ ] the best hostess.

  • 2:54:25

    Host host. Hostess. It's been on the night. Yeah. that that hip hop has ever

  • 2:54:30

    seen. So, can we Sometimes you want the truth, but

  • 2:54:35

    sometimes we can't tell the truth. You can say the truth anytime you want and if it's too much truth, we'll edit it out. All I'm saying is that I watch people in

  • 2:54:43

    real time, you have feelings and once the information came out was battling it

  • 2:54:50

    battling with those feelings internally cuz then now like you said earlier like the person that I know and the person

  • 2:54:56

    that the public knows it it it's an internal conflict and it's irresponsible for even me for a person to come up here

  • 2:55:02

    and say something and it comes insensitive to others who may have suffered. So that's that's that's just a

  • 2:55:08

    hard thing to deal with. Me, I I'll just go off on a ledge and I'll deal with the ramifications. But sometimes that's

  • 2:55:14

    irresponsible and and I appreciate you guys bringing me bringing it. Hold on now. You don't have to do all that. You

  • 2:55:19

    just don't have to do it. But I also feel like and on the flip side of what you're saying or to add on to what you're saying, there's tons of people

  • 2:55:25

    out there that believe he'll be back on the street shortly. Yeah. You're right. There's a bunch of people that that

  • 2:55:31

    Yeah. I mean there some people that don't feel they have the strongest case against him. Mhm. And you know, per the

  • 2:55:37

    reports, they're saying he was in the court eight lawyers deep, eight lawyers strong. The most recent lawyer is

  • 2:55:44

    homeboy that hip hop has crowned best lawyer in the universe. Thug's lawyer. Brian Steel. Was it Brian Steel or was

  • 2:55:51

    it Drew? It was Brian. Brian. Either way, both of them. Crim Dela Crimp. Right. So if you got if your money is

  • 2:55:57

    long as strain smoking is words and you're sitting there with eight of the best attorneys in the universe, you feeling good and you feel

  • 2:56:04

    like you know they said he said he was nervous. He said that as he said he had

  • 2:56:11

    reading glasses on. He's now playing the game. You know what the game is. I'm going to appear to be

  • 2:56:17

    you know not arrogant, not Yeah. No none of that stuff. I think it's also okay to be sorry because he's going to make them

  • 2:56:26

    make the prosecution or the feds or whoever this is draw a very distinct line between the

  • 2:56:33

    difference in uh being a swinger and being a sex trafficker.

  • 2:56:40

    That's what it seems like from from the reports. Me even thinking about that

  • 2:56:45

    that does muddy it up a little bit. Yeah. Yeah. now and let muddy it up in what we muddy it up as in it's going to

  • 2:56:51

    be your job to have all facts eyes dotted like in the OJ case like in the

  • 2:56:56

    OJ case you dropped the ball on how y'all collected evidence what evidence you got how y'all handle things [ __ ]

  • 2:57:02

    this up who cares if he did it or not he's putting the ball in their court to make sure everything that you have

  • 2:57:07

    collecting the evidence says I am a sex trafficker and sexual abuser versus I'm

  • 2:57:13

    on some other some freaky wild [ __ ] and in addition It's a great defense. Yeah. But

  • 2:57:18

    in addition to that, apparently the um phrase coercive control has been stricken. It can't be used, which is

  • 2:57:26

    huge. See? Yeah. And he tried to use a drug defense, too. That that failed, right? Cuz they were trying to They're

  • 2:57:32

    trying to like that defense. That was horrible. Made that go. That was a mess. But but you got to throw it up there. But you got to throw everything out

  • 2:57:37

    there, right? Because if you can establish the idea was basically saying that to criminal to get a criminal conviction, you have to criminal

  • 2:57:43

    conviction, you have to show that you had a criminal mind. what you call a men's ray, a criminal mind. And his point was I was so high. I don't know

  • 2:57:50

    what that I didn't have the intent to Yeah. I didn't have a criminal act. Exactly. It was just fun to me. It's an

  • 2:57:55

    affirmative defense. Like I did it, but I did it because it's just like and I thought that everybody was a willing participant, right? So they were like,

  • 2:58:01

    "Yeah, [ __ ] that." Then then he played the race card with the man act saying basically that the man act has been used

  • 2:58:06

    mainly against black men, you know, like Jack Johnson, all these people. It's been used to basically to to criminalize black men for all kinds of [ __ ] right?

  • 2:58:12

    Mhm. Wasn't the most persuasive arguer. The boxer, right? Cuz a white woman and basically I remember. Yeah. So then he's

  • 2:58:19

    establishing this third piece, which I think is the best argument, which is, look, I'm a freak ball, right? Like I do freaky [ __ ] I do wild [ __ ] And I do

  • 2:58:26

    wild. I'm rich. So if you do freaky wild [ __ ] with drugs and a lot of people, you going to be traveling across the country. We got escorts. We got this. We

  • 2:58:32

    got that. This wasn't sex trafficking. This was just regular [ __ ] And because the jury is supposed to invoke

  • 2:58:38

    what they call the reasonable man standard, the idea what would a reasonable person do under this situation, it's quite reasonable that a

  • 2:58:45

    juror, even if they can't even if they didn't live that life, could relate to it. They assume that rich people do

  • 2:58:51

    freaky wild [ __ ] with. So I I think that that actually might make a juror say, "You know what? Puffy's not a criminal.

  • 2:58:57

    He's just a freak." Or or we got we got dialogue that says, "Yo, blah blah blah blah blah. can't wait to do XYZ, but you

  • 2:59:04

    live in California and I live in Florida. Right. So, when you got on that plane and me and you have a dialogue saying, I'mma eat your ass out like crab

  • 2:59:11

    bay. You get on the flight and you come over there and you did it. I heard that. That feels like real dialogue.

  • 2:59:19

    You didn't just make that one up. Your phone right now. Do a search. Say

  • 2:59:25

    do a search. Type crab in that [ __ ] phone. What the [ __ ] is Come on, man. You freak. I don't even eat crab. Y

  • 2:59:30

    [ __ ] stupid. Whatever the dialogue, whatever the dialogue might have been,

  • 2:59:36

    you know what I'm saying? Like, yo, dog, we we've all, not for nothing, uh, had women come from other states maybe to

  • 2:59:42

    visit us. Yeah. And if y'all got into some [ __ ] then that could potentially

  • 2:59:48

    go left, right? And they're going to like, that's what he means about you're going to blur that line. Yeah. They going It's just interesting. It took him

  • 2:59:53

    that long to pick this as the defense. That might have always been their their their go-to defense. Again, you throw

  • 2:59:58

    everything out. You throw the [ __ ] that's exculpatory first. You thought the [ __ ] is going to make make them say you didn't do it first if you can. And

  • 3:00:05

    I'm not in a rush to release my defense to people that are about to prepare that could prepare their own defense, right?

  • 3:00:10

    Yeah. No. Hell no. I'm not doing that. Yeah. Uh just for the record because I forgot everyone here here. Where does

  • 3:00:16

    everybody stand here? Y'all feel he's going down? Y'all feel he's coming out? I think they're going to get him because they want to get him. I think they're

  • 3:00:22

    going to get him. I don't care about none of the what the evidence they they want to get him. So they're going to get him. I don't think it's going to be I

  • 3:00:28

    don't think it's going to be forever. It's going to be a couple years. Five maybe. I think he's going to do seven. I think he'll do five to seven. You say

  • 3:00:34

    time serve? No, I ain't no saying time serve. No, no time serve. We getting him. Not weak, but they're they're

  • 3:00:40

    getting him. Yeah. I would like to know what that plea was. I mean, I know I won't, but 10 to 15 come home in seven.

  • 3:00:46

    That's a good point. Well, cuz right cuz the question is what is the number that he would have said yes to? They offer from him three years. You take it right

  • 3:00:51

    after you've already done a year. So, it had to be at least five five like you said five to seven. Depends on where your arrogance is. I'll just give it

  • 3:00:57

    depending on who your your what your what your team what your law team is telling you to do. If your law team of

  • 3:01:02

    these [ __ ] that they are thug lawyer was like yo I didn't want him to take a

  • 3:01:09

    pleap because that was not the feds them [ __ ] offered ASAP what 180 days. Yeah

  • 3:01:15

    we and we was kicking his back like why he didn't take that [ __ ] 18 months or 6 months or some [ __ ] and he was like no and I did come in and apologize to him.

  • 3:01:22

    Yeah me too. I was I was absolutely wrong. Shout out to Rocky again for his work last night. Shout out to Rocky.

  • 3:01:27

    Like, dog, we we came in here like, "Yo, fam, 6 months, [ __ ] You take that." And And unfortunately, we don't Well,

  • 3:01:34

    fortunately, we don't have the loyal lawyer teams that they got and the legal teams that they got saying, "Yo, we

  • 3:01:39

    about to kick these [ __ ] asses." Yeah. And again, there's another side of that, bro. We see [ __ ] where the plea deal

  • 3:01:45

    look like it's something that they should take. They take it to trial and get roofed. We see Tori. We all saw Tori

  • 3:01:52

    was walking to Tori's legal team the [ __ ] out and his legal team wasn't that true. That's

  • 3:01:59

    true. If his legal [ __ ] legal bug the [ __ ] out. He he to bunch of missteps

  • 3:02:04

    with Tori. But water under the bridge. Exactly. I remember somebody else they

  • 3:02:09

    offered him. They was like, "Yo, take 20." And guess what? His lawyer wasn't him either. Yeah. No, his lawyer, don't

  • 3:02:14

    get me started. His lawyer wasn't him neither. I know what you're talking about. His lawyer wasn't him. and his lawyer was playing the internet games and all that [ __ ] These [ __ ] right

  • 3:02:21

    here are professionals, bro. Yeah, but these [ __ ] coming in there with $4,000 suits on, looking the part, playing the

  • 3:02:26

    part. But there is a world in which the jury looks at this dream team and it turns them off. Could be. There is a

  • 3:02:33

    world where that happens. There's a world where they say the common man can't get a fair. Exactly. But this rich

  • 3:02:38

    [ __ ] can hire this, you know, eight lawyers with their $4,000 suits and he'll [ __ ] you. You know what I'm

  • 3:02:44

    saying? I agree with that. You're right. I totally agree with that. So, we don't know what's going to happen. But with Cassie being um a witness for the

  • 3:02:49

    prosecution, even if they don't have the video, just her witness testimony and

  • 3:02:55

    per her testimony alone is going to be really, really, really hard. I think I

  • 3:03:01

    think her testimony is going to be pivotal, but I I think that cross exam is going to be pivotal. I think that

  • 3:03:07

    cross is going to be a monster. You run the risk. And I heard you do run some risks putting her up there. Do you see?

  • 3:03:14

    And they said even with the tape, even with the tape, they said they got other tapes. Yes. They would have to have

  • 3:03:20

    other tapes. No. And they said there's other tapes. It displays a whole different narrative. Well, if I believe

  • 3:03:25

    that Puff is is is freaky boy camcorder, man. Then yeah, [ __ ] got tapes. I was

  • 3:03:32

    recording. So the same [ __ ] as some [ __ ] against me, I got some [ __ ] that kind of proves what I'm saying as well. There you go. Which again muddies the lines

  • 3:03:37

    like you said. Do you think he takes the stand in his own defense? No. No. He better not. I think they never let him.

  • 3:03:43

    No. No. Absolutely. You don't pay You don't pay those high price attorneys for you to have to get up there and please

  • 3:03:48

    your case. No. For you to have to get up there and get cross-examined. Yeah. No. Ain't doing that. That's the last thing we want. No, we're not doing that. Last

  • 3:03:55

    thing we we want. Yeah. Did you see what you think about the lines of people out there? They were paying folks$25 to $32

  • 3:04:03

    an hour just to stand online to say what? Just to watch. Yeah. It was like a

  • 3:04:08

    It was like a go get in a club. Yeah. Yeah, it's like first come first serve type [ __ ] People are lining up at god

  • 3:04:14

    knows what time. What is the second? What is the second craziest trial that

  • 3:04:20

    y'all have ever witnessed or been alive for? I say second cuz I'm just going to put OJ at one. OJ Mendez. OJ OJ goes at

  • 3:04:27

    one. Uh John Gotti, Robert Blakeley. I a follow none of that [ __ ] Um Phil

  • 3:04:33

    Spectre. Phil Spector is a good one because of the because it was two trials. First one was a mistrial. Second

  • 3:04:39

    one he gets convicted for. But when I speak on biggest trial, yeah, that was a real good one. But when I speak of biggest, I also mean uh Jeffrey [ __ ]

  • 3:04:47

    DMER. No, no, I'm also talking about your reaction, your relationship to it. Your Yeah. Like cuz these are these are

  • 3:04:53

    huge. For me it was for me it was Michael Jackson. But for for me Michael Jackson and OJ were the only two that I

  • 3:04:59

    felt. Oh, George Zimmerman. George Zimman was close. But Michael Jackson for me was

  • 3:05:05

    Michael second. Michael Knight second. It was OJ and Zimmerman for me. Which case gave you the biggest uh maybe let

  • 3:05:10

    me reword it. Which case gave you the biggest aha like wow like holy [ __ ] I

  • 3:05:16

    can't believe what I'm seeing right now. Roie I was about to say [ __ ] we Rodney King. Yeah that Rodney King, bro. King

  • 3:05:23

    we saw these cops beating this man on the ground. So in our brain and I was younger but in our brain it's like it's

  • 3:05:30

    no way that they could possibly argue this. You know what I'm saying? There's no way that they could possibly justify.

  • 3:05:38

    We didn't see it. Ronnie King, we saw these men beating this man on tape, kicking him in the face, beating him

  • 3:05:44

    with batons, and then none of them [ __ ] got a day. Got it. So, that was something that we had

  • 3:05:50

    to for me. Right after OJ would probably have to be Aaron Hernandez. No, that was

  • 3:05:56

    a big trial. But it didn't I didn't have the aha on that. I don't care about the the the the trial. Yeah. I care about

  • 3:06:02

    Wait, what? Cuz no, cuz this is a football

  • 3:06:10

    has bodies. Has six bodies. He was doing up. No, I ain't going to talk about

  • 3:06:16

    that. Aaron is killing everybody. But I guess I went into the trial knowing that already. So I didn't I wasn't sh I

  • 3:06:22

    didn't have an aha moment the way I did with Well, wait. I learned about new bodies in the trial. That's true. Once you kill two, six don't really I'm not

  • 3:06:28

    like, "Oh, he killed even more people." It was a killer. It was the fact that he was a killer was the shocker for me. I ain't know that. If you jump from two to

  • 3:06:34

    six, you're a serial killer now. That's true. Circumstance, right? I know [ __ ]

  • 3:06:39

    in the hood that kill two [ __ ] You killed six, [ __ ] You in the hood hall of fame. Them same two [ __ ] You You

  • 3:06:44

    think they only killed They might got four the hood don't know, right? We talking about the ones you know. Like,

  • 3:06:51

    god damn, that [ __ ] For me, one of the most impactful trials I ever watched in my entire life was Paul Bernardo and

  • 3:06:57

    Carla Hulka. I knew you know who they are. What Leona did?

  • 3:07:02

    Yo, I thought you say Martha Stewart. Take that [ __ ] to Adrian B. Oh

  • 3:07:10

    yo, let me Honey. No, Carl Bernardo and Carla Hamoka. They were a married couple

  • 3:07:15

    and they lived in um they lived in Canada. They lived in um [ __ ] St. Catherine's. It's like this suburb

  • 3:07:21

    that's like about 50 miles outside of Toronto. And on the surface, you know, he's this good-looking guy. She's his

  • 3:07:27

    good-looking wife. and everything is perfect, right? Come to find out, they're murdering young girls together.

  • 3:07:35

    So, the first girl was named Leslie Mahafi. She goes missing. Nobody knows

  • 3:07:40

    where she is. Her body's later later found like, you know, uh dismembered in

  • 3:07:45

    encased in cement. The worst part about that is the worst part about that is is that she kept

  • 3:07:51

    leaving, you know, she kept sneaking out at home. And one night her mom found out that she snuck out. So to teach her a

  • 3:07:56

    lesson, she locked the door. And so that was when Paul Bernardo found Leslie um Leslie Mafy. That was her name. And so

  • 3:08:03

    then their next victim was this girl named Kristen French. And they Why do you know this case so well? You know

  • 3:08:09

    these Did you do Did you do a movie? Wait. Did you do a movie reenactment of this? I did not. No, but

  • 3:08:15

    this is one This is one This is one of the biggest triumphs.

  • 3:08:20

    Yo, you got to stop. Are y'all crazy? Oh [ __ ]

  • 3:08:28

    This is one of the biggest trials that ever happened in Canada. It was It was wild. They occupied like, you know, the

  • 3:08:34

    news cycle forever. They're called the Canon Barbie Killers. What What year was this? Like 1992. And you remember their

  • 3:08:41

    names? I remember everything about this because it was so crazy because their

  • 3:08:46

    third victim was her sister. Third's name. Um, it was Carla Mocha's sister.

  • 3:08:52

    So Tammy. Her name was Tammy. Yeah. You're good. Yeah, you need a So, wait. So, hold on. So, wait. Hold on. Hold on.

  • 3:08:58

    No. No. So, let me let me tell you the aha moment. Different reason. She need Let me tell you the aha moment in this trial. Stop. I want to hear the [ __ ]

  • 3:09:05

    story. Do you? No. Do you really want to hear cuz this is a really

  • 3:09:11

    interesting this is a really interesting story about immunity.

  • 3:09:16

    So, they know that they've caught him and as a matter of fact, he was also um the Scarboro rapist. He was rap he like

  • 3:09:23

    raped like 50 women. Okay. So, hold on. So, she the prosecution basically, you

  • 3:09:30

    know, has her as a witness and they offer her immunity and she's like, I'm I was a battered woman. I was forced to do

  • 3:09:36

    all these things, whatever. So, they she gets her immunity deal like 11 years or something like that. Then they find

  • 3:09:42

    tapes inside of the ceiling of the house. They look through this house like torn it apart four times and never found

  • 3:09:48

    these tapes. Somehow someway on the fifth time they found these tapes. When they view these tapes of them torturing

  • 3:09:54

    their girls and murdering them and but performing sex acts on them, they realized that she was fully in this and

  • 3:10:02

    was not a battered woman at all. And but they had given her immunity. She got off she got off 11 years. Now she lives

  • 3:10:08

  • 3:15:22

    fan of that no matter what you just cannot root for? Like for me, it's Lamar Jackson. I would love nothing more than like he's one of my favorite players to

  • 3:15:29

    watch, but I would never root for him as long as he has a Ravens jersey. I just can't do it. I can't root for a Celtic, you know? So, like I'm a huge Kyrie

  • 3:15:35

    Irving fan, but when he was on the Celtics, I just had to sit sit down. Damn. I Same with the Cowboys. Celtics,

  • 3:15:41

    Cowboys, I want no parts under any circumstance. I got I got morals. [ __ ] just hate

  • 3:15:46

    greatness. No, it ain't great. Anything division division, it ain't even

  • 3:15:51

    division for me. Cuz like if Lamar Jackson was a was a Bengal or a Brown, I could still root for him. I could deal

  • 3:15:56

    with a Giant or a Nick even though, you know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah, cuz the Ravens been busting your ass for No, no, not really. Not really. You can go look

  • 3:16:03

    that up. Not really. The hate is the hate. It's all right. It's just I just hate Baltimore. Sorry. [ __ ] been here

  • 3:16:08

    before. That's it. Oh, yeah. You used to the hate.

  • 3:16:14

    It ain't new. Nothing new.

  • 3:16:19

    Do y'all care about Kanye selling 6,000 copies uh week one? I don't. Congrats or

  • 3:16:25

    sorry that happened to you? Word. Which one is appropriate here? I What' you expect? It's not even under

  • 3:16:33

    his name. So, I mean, that's a big chunk of it. Is it still out? Where's it under? It says under Yeah. The artist's

  • 3:16:39

    name is Der. And you I guess I I didn't expect there to be a big market for

  • 3:16:44

    mentally ill Nazi child molesters. But he did even less than I thought.

  • 3:16:52

    Yeah. Yeah. Has anybody heard it? No. Ice heard it. I heard it.

  • 3:16:57

    Mhm. You said it was a bunch of demos. It's Oh, it's nothing that we It ain't It ain't

  • 3:17:17

    just to let you know the disparity. Oh, wow. Got it. Oh, it is still out actually. I just checked. But it was

  • 3:17:22

    producer producer beef and they said they were filing injunctions. Oh, yeah. the producers get they spanky so they

  • 3:17:27

    wonder out so I guess that ain't go through yet. My [ __ ] [ __ ] himself. Yeah, whatever. I'm off the I told

  • 3:17:38

    leave it right there.

  • 3:17:44

    Oh man. Oh [ __ ]

  • 3:17:49

    Just seeing if we got a part of the show for sure. Oh, just checking to see if we got one. I'm going to read this. This is

  • 3:17:55

    my first time reading this. Long pause. Uh, this is from Theo Culture or the

  • 3:18:00

    Culture. This says, "I met Big Pun once by chance. Let me know if you think I

  • 3:18:05

    was an asshole." Well, why do I care about that? Might be. I'll read it cuz he paid. Might have been an [ __ ]

  • 3:18:11

    First and foremost, shout out to the whole JBP cast. Shout out to you. Longtime listener and supporter. I tie I

  • 3:18:18

    tie dye clothing for a living, which takes hours, and the paw truly holds me down while working. Okay, let me paint

  • 3:18:24

    the picture. It's 1999. I'm 19 years old. Nas had just released his album I don't want to read this [ __ ] Nas had

  • 3:18:30

    just released his album I am and had an instore signing at NYC at Tower Records at Virgin Records Mega Store. Me and my

  • 3:18:36

    boy being big fans drove down an hour from Connecticut in hopes to meet Nas and buy the album. We get there and

  • 3:18:42

    there's a long line outside the building for the signing. so long so long that

  • 3:18:47

    the record store eventually comes out and tells the people in line that they were no longer accepting anyone else

  • 3:18:53

    inside. That was obviously disappointing. But parked on the street nearby was a gold big body bins. We

  • 3:19:00

    looked closer and it was Big Punt. I recognized the bins from the John Blaze video. We decided to go up and meet Punt

  • 3:19:07

    as we're big fans of him as well. Before we approached the car, I thumbmed through the double XXL magazine I

  • 3:19:13

    brought with Nas on the cover for him to sign, knowing damn well Pun would be in there somewhere. Sure enough, he was

  • 3:19:20

    featured in one of the sections with a photo of him and a thought bubble that had a cheeseburger inside it. I did

  • 3:19:27

    hesitate for a second, but did bring the magazine for him to sign. He dapped me

  • 3:19:32

    up, saw the magazine, said something to his homie in Spanish, chuckled a bit,

  • 3:19:37

    signed it, and gave it back. He was so cool and cordial. I always felt a way about it. In hindsight, I probably

  • 3:19:45

    wouldn't have had him sign that, but I always blamed Double XXL and their editorial staff for making fun of him in

  • 3:19:51

    that way at the height of his career. You hear that, Elliot? I was just I was just a 19-year-old kid who wanted to get

  • 3:19:58

    an autograph from one of my favorite MC's. All right, that's a nice wholesome part of the show. Um, you weren't an

  • 3:20:05

    [ __ ] I don't think you're an [ __ ] He wasn't. Yeah. Yeah. You didn't You You knew not what you did. You You were young. He was a great sport

  • 3:20:11

    about it. And he signed it and gave it back. Now, plenty of fans are dicks and

  • 3:20:17

    will have you try to autograph a bootleg CD. Yeah. Bootleg merch. Somebody else's

  • 3:20:23

    merch. Oh, they they do they do they have you try to autograph your like the team you Yeah. Like like if if a Knicks

  • 3:20:30

    player they run into him, you'll sign this for me and then they move it at the last minute. It's a Celtics jersey. Yeah. Some [ __ ] like that. True. So fans

  • 3:20:35

    could get on some dick. I totally understand. I don't think that that applies to I don't think it was Pun's

  • 3:20:40

    first time seeing that picture. The culture. Rest in peace, Big Pun. Uh, and shout out to you again. Uh, if

  • 3:20:47

    you join the part of the show tier on Patreon and pay that fee if you send us in a question, we will try our best to

  • 3:20:54
