Starting point is 00:00:00 Yo, are we drinking or what, man? It's the holidays, bro. We can't start, please. You might have to get something, man. Please. Because Al is saying sentences with more than three words. And once you get past three words, you don't know what's coming out. You never know.
Starting point is 00:00:14 Let's go. It's Secret Santa. That's go. All those are three sentences. Hey, man. But once you get into the multi-salamic, bro, you get fucked. You do get fucked. That was fine, what you just said.

I mean, New Yorkers are all the same. Because he was just trying to say what the director's name was and fucked it up 30 times. The director's name is Alice Stapleton.
Starting point is 00:00:51 No, it's Alexandria, right? Whatever. Yeah, see, see? Bitch ass, Nick. He couldn't even get close. Irony and the evidence. Literally, he couldn't even get closed, bro. He was like, yeah, man, fucking, you know, Alice, Alice Staples. What's her name? And, like, kept on having to cut off trying to talk shit about the director. Can I ask you a question? Is the gentleman you're talking about black? Yeah. Black people make no effort with white names. It's astonishing. The amount of times when I would go up in hood shows that they would bring me up is Adam Schwartz. Don't y'all have enough. A mosh? I got a mosh.

Because he did, like, a good, he does, like, good, like, best men's speeches and all that type of stuff. I think he's going to write a fire letter. I'm not right.
Starting point is 00:03:07 I'm not going to write a letter? You're going to shoot somebody. He's going to get his assistance to right. You're going to shoot somebody, and then it's going to be partially my responsibility because I was, you know, the one who got you the gun. There you go. Now that's more street credit for you.

Starting point is 00:08:12 What is that mean? What is that mean? You say everyone on the couch watch at least one episode. Oh, just because you've got a chair. I'm trying to get rid of the couch. I'm trying to get rid of the couch. No, I'm trying to get rid of the chair, I mean. I'm trying to get rid of the chair.
Starting point is 00:08:24 This should be all couches only. Yo, Miles, a way to enjoy the couches. Yeah, I've been asking for couches for three fucking weeks. How many people are going to ask for a goddamn couch? Can we get back to this, though? Have you guys ever watched anything I've asked in the history of this podcast? The first time you do it is we didn't ask. You told us to watch it.
Starting point is 00:08:41 I should have been doing that in the past. I should have been doing that in the past. Oh, God, we missed Yellowstone. Oh, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. The fucking cultural phenomenon of Karen Kossner as a cowboy. That shit didn't slap the way you think. What? Yellowstone? Yeah, I don't hear anybody
Starting point is 00:08:57 talking about. You gave up on it. What's you talking about? Who gave up on it? Who gave up on it? I've watched all the other things from Yellowstone World. I watched 1923. I watched 1948. I've watched all the Yellow Stones. I don't even know what that is. Yes. The Yellowstone world is, you know, the Dunton Ranch has existed before our time.
Starting point is 00:09:17 And I found the story of how it came to be. You watched one episode of that shit, too? I watched Yeah. No, I was I cleared through those seasons. I'm just, I'm going back on Stranger Things right now, but back to Diddy. Stop trying to get off the fucking topic. Yeah, why are you trying to fucking watch it?
Starting point is 00:09:32 Why are y'all trying to cover me? Anybody getting off like Diddy? You guys watched the entire thing. You guys are both on flights across the country. Yeah, exactly. So you have no excuse, okay? You, you watch it? Yeah, I was sick.
Starting point is 00:09:43 So I had something to watch. All right, do you guys want to discuss it or do you want to discuss how many episodes we watch? What do you guys? What do you guys think will be the most interesting content for our listeners? Is how many episodes each of us? Watts Watts are discussing the actual documentary. The Worldwide Sensation is number one in 32 countries, according to 50 Cent, who texted me.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Yeah, well, how long do you take you to get through the four sessions? Wait, what, what do you mean? No, I'm just saying. We were still talking about. Oh, my, oh, wow, from the top, from the top. No, no, I'll, I'll bail him out. Oh, all right, all right.
Starting point is 00:10:15 Don't even bail them out. I know, we need sound effects. Joey, right there, we need sound effects. I needed to know. I needed to know how many episodes you think it would take Joey to find one sound effect. You know what I'm not going to get a single We're not going to get another couch
Starting point is 00:10:30 I've been asked for another couch for a month Here we go We don't even know what that was Real talk you've been asked for a couch It's pre-Australia Right Son, seasons ago I've been asking for internet
Starting point is 00:10:41 For the last two months We finally had internet There was a woman in a Hillary Clinton suit Walking around here I was like the internet About to get worse There's no way in hell That this lady knows how to put the fucking internet
Starting point is 00:10:50 In-air That was the Wi-Fi lady? She was just hacking emails dude No way Yeah. Wow. Yeah, it was very interesting. Anyway, so documentary.
Starting point is 00:10:59 I mean, there's so many things that I did not know. Like what? Well, the city college thing, I had no idea about it. Oh, yeah, I had no clue about that. I'd be honest. I didn't know about that either. I knew about that. I didn't know nine people died.
Starting point is 00:11:11 I thought people just got hurt. I have no clue about the City College Day. Why are we making a big deal over the Shine murder? Well, that's also bad. That's just one. Because Shine was awesome. That's a lot. Oh, you're talking about the shooting.
Starting point is 00:11:25 Yeah, Sean got to be, you took the fall for it. Yeah. That was also more directly Diddy's involvement than the City College thing, allegedly. I also don't know what is true and what's not. So I'm just going to throw a million allegedly's out. What's that allegation? So did you guys see how many allegedly's Netflix put out? Every time there was a statement about Diddy, it went to black screen and then writing on the screen.
Starting point is 00:11:43 Beginning and end of every episode, same thing. Throughout. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't even know if you watched it. I don't even know who we watched it. What do you think I meant when I said every episode? Yeah, both talking about two different things.
Starting point is 00:11:54 Yeah. You're talking about how Netflix says Hey, we ask for a comment And you're talking about at the end In the beginning of every episode They said he got convicted Oh yeah Yeah, you fucking dumb idiot
Starting point is 00:12:04 Okay, oh wow This shit is, oh yeah Al, just relax man Wow, this is too much That's too much for your brain now Your brain can't do too many things in one time Yo, your nail polish Pressing that shit looks crazy
Starting point is 00:12:17 Dude, it looks crazy Too shit coming out of nail polish for wild Why is it? Come on All right Back to City Okay. It's fun, though. City College.
Starting point is 00:12:26 What happened? Give me the other one, Mark. Yeah. Give me the other one. There you go. What happened in City College? Did you not watch any of the fucking episodes? No.
Starting point is 00:12:34 No, what are your thoughts on it? Because you said that was the crazy. No, I didn't think that was the crazy. I was trying to give clarity to listeners who might not have also watched on the section. Oh, okay. Sorry, this is a little disorganized here. Mark brought a toy. People still are.
Starting point is 00:12:45 Yeah, no. This is more important. We're not sure not to do this podcast with this toy here. Audio listeners have no idea there's a toy in the room. And people who didn't watch the doc. I don't know what the fuck City College is about. Sorry, audio listen. No, my bad.
Starting point is 00:12:59 Mark really brought a fire toy. All right, so Diddy started as a party guy. He would promote parties. And then him and Heavy D, who was the biggest rapper, maybe in the country at the time, definitely in New York. Power through that. Power through.
Starting point is 00:13:12 Had a rapper, like a musician basketball game at City College in Harlem. Yeah. And then they were filled up. They were at capacity. It was like $12 to get in, but so many people tried to bum rush the doors and they didn't realize the doors don't open out.
Starting point is 00:13:25 You can't bum rush the doors. Tragically, nine people died. And then I guess I- Diddy was like 19. I'm trying to understand why this is Diddy's fault, I guess, for not hiring enough security. Yeah. And is, like, do you blame him for that?
Starting point is 00:13:38 Or do you blame the people that are pushing into an event that they don't even have tickets for that crushed the other human beings right in front of that? I think they also said he overbooked. That was the allegation. He sold more tickets than he should have. That's what the allegation was. Well, if you can prove that.
Starting point is 00:13:51 By more than 2000. If you, that, then that's definitely my ability. Only $500 spent on crowd control. Yeah. Also, this is the first time. I think they say, like, this is the first time you see him get away with some shit and just kind of deflect on the narrative and be like, I'm a positive black man trying to do positive things and they're trying to bring me down, which is kind of his go-to narrative.
Starting point is 00:14:10 Anytime he got in trouble. I mean, he was doing positive things for the neighborhood. Yeah, but he would hide behind that. He'd use that as a shield like, what's his name? Like, Pablo Escobar did charity. He still was a drug kingpin killing. But at this time, he didn't do anything negative just. No, but this is the first time.
Starting point is 00:14:23 I think they look at that as like, oh, that's when he realized, oh, I can get away with something. Yeah, yeah. I mean, at the end of the first episode, there's a great thing about, like, his envy of Tupac. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:34 And I forget exactly which character is saying it, but he's basically saying, he's like, here's the thing with Diddy. It's like, Diddy is a marketer, which at its core is a manipulator. And he has a resentment for talented people because people like them
Starting point is 00:14:52 without manipulation and this idea that like Diddy really treated everybody that was around him as his like wife and to have that relationship with Biggie where he's envious of Tupac because Biggie and Tupac are connecting obviously they're going to connect more they're both artists, they're both great at rapping
Starting point is 00:15:11 this is the thing that they've dedicated their lives to like why would Biggie look up to Diddy over Tupac it makes no fucking sense right? So but him being so envious and so protective and maybe looking at this massive investment that he just made potentially leaving him for so many respects more. And he was trying to sign Pock and Pock was not with it.
Starting point is 00:15:31 Oh, yeah, obviously. And Tupac was also putting Biggie on game in terms of the music business, how it operates, and he should restructure his contract. So that also was another piece of the puzzle that got Diddy upset. Is that episode two? Yeah, I'm not even lying.
Starting point is 00:15:46 Episode two, they really make it seem like Diddy's the reason both of them died. Really? Yeah. And again, documentary. They have their slant. You can edit. But, like, they make that shit seem fairly strong.
Starting point is 00:15:57 I will say this. I don't think, I don't know. I don't think, I don't think Diddy was involved in Tupac's death. I think it was a little bit more simple. It's like Tupac snuffed the, let me just get it out. Tupac fights a high-ranking Crip. High-ranking Crip, send some guys to go kill Tupac. So what they say is that guy was a Southside Crip
Starting point is 00:16:22 who was affiliated with Diddy. Diddy got cool with the Southside Crips with somebody high up. And then that guy had robbed one of Pock's people, I think, right? And then Pock's boy that got robbed is like, yo, that's the motherfucker that robbed me. So Pock just goes, gets his get back,
Starting point is 00:16:36 but they're like, oh, this is the opportunity. And then we can use this. And was fucked up, man. And weeks before that, so Kee-Feedee D allegedly says that he had a conversation with Diddy and there was either a $2 million, $1 million.
Starting point is 00:16:52 a million dollar bounty on Pock and Shook. Did he say, I'll pay a million dollars you kill Pock and Shug? So if you know that hit is on the street already and now he just started a fight with your guy is like, oh, this is perfect. We can get out, get back and get paid. Imagine if there wasn't the incentive of making money, maybe they might not have taking it to that far.
Starting point is 00:17:12 It's a brutal scene, man. They say it. They shot him, then they just pulled off, watched the AMBA lamps pull up. And it was just like a fucking brutal scene, man. It was brutal. Like, it's just heartless. And then apparently they stood. did there the whole time. Yeah, they just watched it. KVD says, allegedly,
Starting point is 00:17:26 like after the shooting, they was like, yeah, we just stood and watched the ambulance, take him out. Well, ambulance, but yeah. And they were to stay on the corner. So you think Diddy was involved? Yes. You think he was involved in Biggie's death, too? His involvement in Biggie's death is more so ego.
Starting point is 00:17:41 He's like wanting to show that, hey, we're not scared. So Biggie was supposed to fly out to London to shoot some shit. And he was like, nine out. They were going to do European press. The first time the bad boy artists was doing the European press. Biggie was hype. Biggie didn't want to be in Cali but Diddy was so upset by
Starting point is 00:17:55 Hit him up so upset by Shug taking shots at him he was like no we're gonna go there I'm gonna make you do press and then the day Biggie's supposed to fly out Biggie wants the fuck out of Cali he's like this isn't safe for me everybody's told me I shouldn't be here Diddy tells the guy that says number two that he eventually squeezes out of the company his childhood friend
Starting point is 00:18:12 he goes yo Biggie's not going to L.A. or to London he's going to this party with me staying in L.A. another day Diddy thought it was important to say fuck you to them and throw a party in L.A. Fuck you to death row. We're going to throw a party in enemy territory. And that's the party where Biggie gets got it. So not like he ordered the hit, but because he just wanted
Starting point is 00:18:31 to show that he wasn't afraid to be in the West Coast. He wasn't pussy. Yeah. That's what got Biggie. Murder. And then retaliation obviously for the Pock's shit. Yeah. Yeah. Why retaliation for the Pock shit? Well, people kill Biggie for retaliation for Pock because they thought Biggie and Puffer behind us.
Starting point is 00:18:47 God. It got it kind of guy. And Puck thought Biggie and Puff or Biggie Puffer behind the first shooting. Especially Puff. The first time he got shot. That's where the whole riff started. Yeah. Do you remember when they died?
Starting point is 00:19:01 Yeah. It's crazy. Could you put it on a scale? Like, is it the, like, obviously, rap is different now, but like, I'm trying to wrap my head around the moment. Is it the equivalent of, like, the biggest rappers in America now getting killed?
Starting point is 00:19:13 Abraham Lincoln goes up. That's the only thing I'll compare it. Drake, the amount of high light that was on that it was but tragedy but like tragedy i would i would say i would say way more no i don't think i like no drake kendrick is different drake kendrick was like excitement around it there are people like oh we got a beef here we go this was shock yeah this was like sadness this was like you couldn't believe it like i remember we were i was in middle school so you must have been really young up yeah yeah yeah you were probably in like third grade or something like
Starting point is 00:19:47 But I still remember, yeah. But it was just like, yeah, you just couldn't believe that this was real. Also, at the end of the day, we're like kids and, like, we're like derivative from the street, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're in New York and we see things happen, but it's not written, nothing really is going to come of it, right? These guys are in MTV with Carson Daley, we got painted nails. Like, it's not, it's not real. Two box in fucking movies that we would go watch. It's not real.
Starting point is 00:20:11 Yeah. And then it got very real. We would be playing around, like, and be like, oh, West Coast, East Coast. like I was fighting with one another type of shit like yeah it was a joke to us right it was wrestling yeah it was wrestling and it was cool to have like you had like an identity in it as a kid
Starting point is 00:20:26 it's crazy how like people get wrapped up in the cult just because we're from New York we're like man fuck Tupac he rhymes Hennessy with enemy every song you know what I'm just finding these reasons not to like Tupac but like I like Tupac I thought the music was great yeah yeah so
Starting point is 00:20:42 yeah it was very weird time And again, edits are edits, but they really put this shit on Biggie, I mean, on Diddy. Like, Diddy was the guy, it was the catalyst for this whole thing and poured a lot of gas on everything. And Mayor, man, allegedly put a hit out on Pock and Shug. And then he only paid $500,000 because he's like, well, you only killed Pop. That's far. I mean, it's tragic, obviously. But like, this guy's so, such a lunatic that he would do something like that.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Like, what I thought was crazy about it was the, I never knew that he, I knew he, I knew he, he was from Mount Vernon, but I never knew that, like, his dad was a hustler. Yeah. So, I never knew that. And, like, he's proud of that shit. Yeah. Yeah, you know, but
Starting point is 00:21:28 it's kind of, and who got, like, killed. But the way that they frame it, that he was trying to be this hustler, because I spoke in other people who remain nameless, whenever they've talked about him, they've always said this about, dude. Like, he's always kept, like, one foot in the streets.
Starting point is 00:21:44 I go, what do you mean by that? Like, he's like yeah like he's always he's still connected with the street shit and i'm like i thought this guy's from like mount vernon like i never connected him with streets at all right and um but seeing that that was the aspiration and like seeing everything as a function of power like him trying to fuck the hottest rapper's girl it's not even because he likes a girl no it's just it's this this expression of power yeah i fuck the hottest rapper's girl yeah i'm that powerful and i think that's why he was doing the gay shit. Like, sex just became a function of power.
Starting point is 00:22:19 Yeah. So it's like, what is more powerful than just fucking a dude? Yeah. Yeah, that's true. I don't even know if that sentence makes sense. No, no, no, no, but what is a greater expression? What is a greater expression of how powerful you are,
Starting point is 00:22:34 a straight guy, right? He's willing to fuck you. Yeah. Simply because what you have, spit on your back. Well, also, a lot of times what one guy was saying in the last episode is like, he'll drug you without you.
Starting point is 00:22:45 even realizing it. Right. And they'll just wake up and be like, what's going on? I'm sore, what the fuck happened. And it's just like, I think there's also,
Starting point is 00:22:51 you hear this with sexual assault rape type of shit, there's power dynamics involved in that. I would say that too if I was a guy who got fucked by doing. I would say I got drug too. Guys, I have a live stand-up show announced.

The amount of people that asked to suck my dick is getting out of hand. I literally just dudes coming up to be like, hey, dude, oh gosh, I said, I had a second. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:24:49 This is not that kind of meeting greet, all right? Just come out and take a pick, say what's up. People have asked me why I keep trying to get them to suck your dick. It's become very confusing. You don't have to do that, all right? All you got to do is buy a ticket. Come to the show, and I'm going to Hoboken on December 12th. I'm also doing my monthly show in the East Village at Mary Lou on December 16th.
Starting point is 00:25:06 It's the best lineup in the city, all the best comics. I'll be there working out some new stuff. And then at the New Year, Salt Lake City. and then also where you do a Salt Lake City wise guys fun fucking club dude go see him and then Washington DC
Starting point is 00:25:21 and then Charlotte North Carolina those are going to be announced any minute now all right you're on the edge of your seats I know you are man we said that last week dog just wait any minute now it's coming thank you guys so much see you there that's the thing that this generation that's watching right now they don't understand it because the young people
Starting point is 00:25:37 grew up with Spotify artists and TikTok artists and like pro tools and you make your own beat and you just put it out. You couldn't even record anything without a professional studio back in the day. Consider that. You couldn't even speak into a microphone and record it with a beat without a studio.
Starting point is 00:25:53 So having, they had so much power, so much access to people's dreams. And I think that Diddy's, like, lust for power is the reason why he didn't try to be a... He eventually was an artist a little bit. But initially, remember when they show him dancing and he was trying to be a dancer and he was in the music videos.
Starting point is 00:26:11 and then he pivots. He makes this hard pivot to be like Andre Harrell's side guy, like his right hand man. And to me what that says is, is Diddy has this like undying thirst for power and he goes, ooh, the power is actually there. It's not in the artists.
Starting point is 00:26:29 These artists don't have control when they put an album, when they get studio time, what songs they get, when they go on tour. It's that guy over there that tells them what to do and they're all kissing that motherfucker's ass. Fuck dance in the videos. I want to be that guy. but this is where the power never stops when it's insatiable,
Starting point is 00:26:44 then it seems like he gets jealous of the artists. Now, I want to be the A&R guy. Of course. And I want to be the biggest artist. And I'm going to have all these people write raps for me. And I'm going to make sure my artists never get bigger than me on my songs. Dog, there was a thing. I think this was after Biggie died.
Starting point is 00:26:59 You know, Puffy's saying this is my brother, is my best friend. He tells the number two at his company, Biggie's supposed to get a Rolling Stone cover. He says, no, fuck that. I need to promote the No Way Out album. So I'm getting Rolling Stone. Make sure they put me on the cover. Box Biggie out after his death of a Rolling Stone cover, and then he took it.
Starting point is 00:27:17 That's fucked up. And then made Biggie pay for the funeral. Yeah, the funeral shit is, I heard that one. That's fucking crazy. He would charge you for, like, he would take money out of your deal for recording time in his studio. So he would just find a way to never pay anybody. That's what they all do, though. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:32 But like he would appear in the music video and then pay himself a talent for being in the video. So here's something to that. Here's something to that. there's that line that's like that happened I think it was at the source awards or something like that I don't know if it was Shugger saying yeah come to death row
Starting point is 00:27:48 If you don't want your producer all up in the video etc Diddy was bigger than his artist You want him in the video Not at that point He wasn't bigger than Biggie in 95 He wasn't he wasn't bigger than Craig Mack flavor in your ear
Starting point is 00:28:04 You think? It's hard to think but try to go back like if diddy wasn't next to biggie he big he would have still been that guy he had so much swag to him biggie might have marketed biggie better yeah but seeing puffy in a video didn't mean shit yeah let me clarify at a certain point in time like when puffy first breaks off and does bad boy nobody knows who biggie is puffy puts biggie on yeah right so like he is effectively a much more powerful person in the industry and much more known person in the industry so him co-signing Biggie is massive for Biggie.
Starting point is 00:28:40 So being all up in the video, I don't know about that. One point. Hold on. How can anybody know who Biggie is? He got fired from Uptown Records at that point. Yeah. And Andre Hairel said, I'll let you keep Biggie. Yeah, I remember. But he got fired from, he was the king.
Starting point is 00:28:53 He was, Andre Harrell's the kingmaker. He's the number two. Then he gets fired and he got one artist. So I don't think he's got heat like that. Oh, no, no, no, no. He had the parties. This is where I think a lot of people don't realize. like Andre Harrell was selling lifestyle that was what Uptown doing and then Diddy did that better than anybody right and it was Diddy presents this so he owned the culture and owning the culture is how you can break artists it's how you can control it's another power flex like I can't get if you piss off Diddy you're not going to be able to go to his parties and that's where everybody goes etc yeah so like when he broke off from Uptown what he didn't have is the funding of Uptown but what he still had is the culture and the
Starting point is 00:29:36 cache. And then when he connects with, who is it, Clive Davis? So he gets to Clive Davis. Now all of a sudden he has the money. So he already has the culture. He has the parties. He has the places people want to be. He has the places to break the records to the people who are going to listen to them. Why does he need Andre? And clearly he doesn't because he takes Biggie and they go fucking crazy. Yeah, he got Clive after Hunter Firing. But yeah, I see your point. I still think to most record buying audience, which is kids in suburbs like me, Biggie was a guy you knew of. I didn't know who the fuck puffed daddy was until
Starting point is 00:30:07 I don't even think they were the ones buying the records initially I think suburban whites buying records It comes later I think it's when it's like completely MTVified When the EOM TV wraps like really kind of takes over I think initially I don't think like
Starting point is 00:30:22 I don't think hip hop was that big I think NWA makes it fucking explode It's like loud, it's rebellious But like before that kind of niche It was this like new like weird type of music And like white people were like That's fair but this is six, seven years after NWA.
Starting point is 00:30:36 So rap is out there. Maybe not gangster rap, but rap is a thing. No, no, of course. Of course rap is a thing. There's no question. But it's not what we know it as now. But did he have to charge to be in his own artist video? I guess that's the thing where it's like...
Starting point is 00:30:48 I don't think you should, but what all these fucking... I mean, how these labels make money is they do this kind of like Don King type shit. Where like you get charged for every single fucking towel. I think the thing also is, and you just see this... This is where the editing is like, okay, it could be edited, but the recurring themes of a lot of this. Yeah. Everybody's...
Starting point is 00:31:05 Like, I didn't get the money from Diddy. Yeah. I was supposed to have 25% of bad boy. He shows up with a bat and says, hey, man, I need you to sign this over. I'll give it back to you. I just need to do this deal. Never gives it back. That guy, that producer, I'll pay $250,000.
Starting point is 00:31:17 And then they play voicemails of him being like, yo, man, I'm going to get it to you. I just got to handle this thing. Hey, man. Some shit came up. Hey, man. And then when the guy gets mad, he's like, I don't like your energy, dude. Why are you acting like this? I mean, yeah, the tricky thing is that, like, once you know you can fuck people over and you're like a maniacal sociopath like him,
Starting point is 00:31:35 that's just power hungry. You just go, all right, I just won't pay you. And I think that's the point they try to make with City College, whether it's true or not, is this is when the sociopath realizes, I can get away with anything.
Starting point is 00:31:47 Nine people died and I come out looking good? Yeah. Oh, shit. It gets more famous. Yeah. I got more famous. I'm going to die now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:53 Now I can do whatever I want. That's the thing that I think this generation really doesn't understand, and I think it's like, I don't think they really understand how important the gatekeepers were to the music industry. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:04 And even after, after he left Uptown, he was massively powerful. Okay. Oh, yeah. Massively powerful. Yeah. Because think of the artists that he broke. Like, he breaks marriage at blotch.
Starting point is 00:32:15 Right? Like, he breaks Jodicy, yeah. So all these other people, what's that? 112, Mace. But did those come with Bad Boy? I think they're later, right? Yeah, later. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:26 But it's still him breaking. Of course. Just uptown, he's still the guy. I'm like, just because he's not attached to Uptown doesn't mean he's not massively powerful, right? Because at that moment, the only two ways, and they say in the documentary, the only two ways you can make, like,
Starting point is 00:32:38 legacy money in hip hop is through Russell Simmons or Andre Horell. Think about that level of power. Yeah. What if the only way to get on TV was between two channels? Yeah. Think about how much power those two people were getting to that point, by the way.
Starting point is 00:32:53 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Was just getting back to what it used to be because MTV and BET was it. That was it. Yeah. If you wanted to see music, you had to turn on one of those two channel. You're 100% right. I was no YouTube, there was nothing. And we would flip back and forth from, what is it,
Starting point is 00:33:11 TRL and then 106 in part. Yeah. And we watched 30 seconds of a music video. Hit me baby one more time. And to make it fit the half hour segment or whatever it was, we couldn't even watch the whole music. Wow. And we were complaining then about attention spans being too short.
Starting point is 00:33:31 There's this guy named like Douglas, Adams? He wrote The Hitchhiker's Guy to forget. Oh, yeah, yeah. Anyway, there was something in it that he said, like the different stages of life, I'm going to fuck this up. Maybe you can bring this up. But because I was doing just some kind of like reflection, like what's happening in culture? And I'm like, what the hell is going on? It was so normal back that day and things are so extreme and crazy right now. And he had said that like this is the life cycle. It's like when you're young, you're not really paying attention
Starting point is 00:34:01 in things around you. You get into like your 20s. in early 30s and you're like, this is how things should be, this is perfect, there's all the opportunity, then you get in your 40s and you go, things were so much better back in the day, these things are so crazy right now. Because you were a part of the change. Yes, exactly. Now, ours is maybe the most drastic in history because we live pre-internet and post-internet. Yeah, pre-A-I, post-A-I.
Starting point is 00:34:23 It's insane, like especially our age because old people live pre-internet and with internet, but they don't really use the internet. Yeah. They just have, like, bigger font on their phone. right like that's it that's an old people's change yeah but we actually use it and we'll actually kind of use AI will admit but like our generation is yeah it's fun it's like stone age to right it's crazy what we and kind of yes things are crazy on the internet and yes we see all this kind of wild stuff and conspiracy everything we're handling it pretty fucking well all things
Starting point is 00:34:57 considered all things considered how in important caveat but yeah you can make a video online with all of us having an orgy with each other that is indistinguishable from your regular life. No, but, like, think about that. Don't put me in that. I know, we're just a brilliant idiots
Starting point is 00:35:19 and call him gay for like an hour and a half. It's a baby oil. But, but yeah, I don't know. I'm handling it, okay. And it's too easy to do that. Now one of the fans is going to actually make the orgy video. You, run it! Run it! Run it!
Starting point is 00:35:32 Top me. Top me. I saw an article that watching fucked up videos online can actually give you PTSD. Hold on one second. I've come with a set of rules to describe our reactions to technology. Anything is the world when you were born is normal and ordinary and is just natural part of the way the world works. Anything that is invented between when you're 15 and 35 is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.
Starting point is 00:36:00 anything invented after 35 is against the natural order of things. I mean, tell me that isn't... Yeah, it's brilliant. Brilliant. I'm shocked that you let him get through that whole quote without calling him gay or something. That was, like, really respectful. Well, you'd be calling Douglas. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:15 You know, it's what Douglas said. I ain't going to put that on Big Doug. Big Doug, big Doug. You put a working... No, I'm getting to that point. I can feel it. I'll listen to a new song. I'm like, no, this sucks.
Starting point is 00:36:26 Like, it's getting closer. Every year. Dude, I said this nigga, you 19. No, no, no, he's old, dude. Are you 30 yet? How old are you? Almost, almost. You're not even 30 yet.
Starting point is 00:36:37 I'll be 30 in a few months. You're 29 years old? 29, bro. Damn. The right side of 20. You ain't aging good, so. I know. I'm sorry, but you're not, bro. I think I'm going to look like this for a while.
Starting point is 00:36:49 I think I'm pickled. 29. And you're wearing a beanie inside. What does that mean? The Al's wearing one, too. I was like, fuck this. No, Al needs it. I get that.
Starting point is 00:37:00 Fuck you. Fuck everybody. Al looks like Tim can't swim in a pool. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. No, that's going to get it. Nobody knows.
Starting point is 00:37:12 You know what Tim Poole is? Oh. You got to explain it. You just got so defensive a joke was coming at you. You don't give that to him. You know who Tim Poole is? I do know who Tim Poole is. Okay, there we go.
Starting point is 00:37:27 But you had to explain it. I did have to explain it. Yeah, come on. I agree with you on that. A lot of words. But it was a lot of words. It was a lot of words. So many words. So many words. Can we get back to Diddy, dude? Was there anything that surprised you guys in the doctor? I thought it was going to be more gay stuff. Talk to me.
Starting point is 00:37:45 It was very little gay stuff. Yeah, because you don't really know Diddy. I don't know nothing. Yeah. And everyone's like, dude, Dittie's Epstein. And I was like, dude, this is going to be fucking crazy. And then they were like, well, you're like, you know, probably kill some people and beat some women. And I was like, yeah, all right. But this is the thing, no guy wants to talk about getting butt fuck. So it's like, one guy didn't, Andrew was like, no, he's lying.
Starting point is 00:38:05 That's what I'm saying. That's why nobody wants to come up. He's like, yo, I got to admit this embarrassing shit and so people ain't going to call me a liar. Like, that sucks. Yeah, that's a good point. But multiple people admitted to it, his co-founder, he says he got molested. He got tried, or did he get actually? No, but he says throughout his time there, he got sexually assaulted a couple of
Starting point is 00:38:26 Just my butt during Brilliant Idiots. I, like, did it eat deep scratch in my butt? Yeah. Before we started. Before we started recording Flagrant, I went to the bathroom because I was like, I got to check on something. And I sat down without pooping, and I wiped, and there was a full, I think I might have forgot to wipe. Before we did Brilliant Idiot. So I did a whole pod with full shit on my ass after a shit, okay? That's how I know that guy wanted to get buffed.
Starting point is 00:38:51 Okay, no. Because that's what guy's butts look like. That's what guy's butts look like and Diddy's not sticking his dick in that doo-doo Oh, that's yours. You have clean asses. Diddy might like a little dirty ass. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:03 He got off on some weird shit, yo. Can I make a point, though? This is an interesting thing. This is where black people using the little washcloth in the shower hurts you. No. Because it's always a clean ass to fucking.
Starting point is 00:39:17 You guys always got a clean ass to fucking. You knew when you went to a Diddy party. Diddy knew if he chose a black guy. He's like, yeah, that ass is clean. You don't think about the downsides of hygiene. You don't think about it. With a white guy,
Starting point is 00:39:29 you know I'm only washing to my abdomen. You don't know what's below. You don't know us below. So if you're going to try to take this ass, good luck. Which race is the cleanest ass, you think?
Starting point is 00:39:39 Probably black, right? Oh, without it doubt. Yeah, what happens? Because I don't even know if they shit, really. I think it might be different. Also, America, y'all don't use the bidet like that. Al does, but it's not a general bidet thing. Yeah, y'all are a washcloth culture,
Starting point is 00:39:50 so I can see you guys have a cleanest ass. Yeah, so probably Asian. Middle Eastern, because they got infrastructure for bidets. They all got badeas. Yeah, they wash all the top. No, no, no. They wash before they pray and shit. They don't wash with soap.
Starting point is 00:40:05 They just rinse. Yeah. It's better than you. You don't do shit. I don't know if it's better. They wash their feet. I don't know. When it's raining outside, did I wash?
Starting point is 00:40:14 Smell your finger right now. Oh, I guess I'm clean. I've counted that before. No. If you don't use soap, you'll wash. Smell your finger right. Which one? Oh!
Starting point is 00:40:22 Oh, God, I know that. It was a different finger and it was still disgusting. That was what he was digging with. I was digging. I was digging. Oh, God, dude. Come on. It makes me dry here, bro.
Starting point is 00:40:34 Stop being last. Yo, why's that nasty? This is going to be in the dock, bro. Why is that nasty? Why is that nasty? I keep my nails low. So I don't know. Say again?
Starting point is 00:40:46 He was a vented illness, bro. That was good. I think not as good. He's a lot of you, dude. He's a lot of you, dude. The bar is so low for him. He just connected two things. I was fired.
Starting point is 00:40:59 I made a sentence. I was fire. I made a whole sentence. He's a hit. That was good. You liked it. And then the Cassie shit was crazy. Cassie shit, I didn't realize all that.
Starting point is 00:41:10 We didn't know that that happened with Cassie? No. Also, I thought, did he allegedly, this is going to sound bad. Was he involved in Kim Porter's? On timely demise? That's what a lot of people think. Yeah, they didn't cover it here.
Starting point is 00:41:22 And yeah, I don't know about that. You know, it was more balanced than I thought it would be with the Cassie stuff. Like, they say he groomed her and all that, but then they'll say, like, what? They'll show, like, emails of Cassie sending things that could be interpreted as, like, it was consensual or she was into it or whatever. And a lot of people say, like, she's a, she tried to leave and got the shit kicked out of her once. Yeah, the physical violence is disgusting.

He was like, yeah, after every session, they collected my nut. Yeah. And they were collected in a cup. And then he was like, this went on for months at a time.
Starting point is 00:46:08 And so one day, I was like, why are you guys collecting my nut? And he was like, oh, I just like to see her play with it. What's wrong with that? Did he goes, what's wrong with that? He said that? Yeah. And he was like, after that, they never asked again. But I was like, bro, they've been collecting your nut.
Starting point is 00:46:20 for four months and he just makes her play with it on a random day like a yo-yo you know how big a freak did he is that's the one guy who got paid everybody else he wouldn't pay oh wow but he needed that get back dude i need you come back i need you to come back i need your comeback really bro but collecting in a cub is just hilarious to me that he's bringing this guy in it's like all right but you got a nut in the in the receptacle and then we're going to use it for later and he was like saving it they'd like put in the fridge and mark it and put the date on it no No, they wouldn't. I mean, I presume I couldn't help you out with it.
Starting point is 00:46:54 It's my life last year. I mean, you don't want to get it mixed up. You know what I mean? You probably got other samples in there. Oh, my God. He's like, yeah, if we want to play it with the right one. Yeah, I mean, like, what do we do? Like, if we can find out that you have a genetic disposition to this behavior,
Starting point is 00:47:10 what do we do with them? I don't think this is nature as much as nurture. I think this develops over time. Like you said, the power thing. I think it's nature. I think you're born with it. I think it's nature. Who do he learn his shit from?
Starting point is 00:47:22 Yeah, I think it's... Well, I believe what he was saying earlier, which is, like, a power thing. Like, I'm just controlling this whole situation. But I think you're born with that. Like, sociopathic. Yeah, you have a sociopathy, and maybe there obviously are, like, nurturing elements.
Starting point is 00:47:37 Yeah, yeah. Now, this is, like, push you towards that. But, like, you have to, on some level just not have any care for the people around you. Yeah. And just this insatiable desire to, you know, it's not even be loved or appreciated. He likes being,
Starting point is 00:47:50 the figure, but it's more like the power that being loved and appreciated gives him. Because if it was just be love and appreciate, he would just be an artist. They get loved and appreciated and a story. Nah. He needs to tell motherfuckers what to do.
Starting point is 00:48:06 He gets off on that shit. That infamous phone call. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Which I think that was... That was built up, I think. After rewatching it, it was like, yeah, I don't even think there was anyone on the phone. No. You know how I know there was? Because he slams it, he screams, I'm a savage, whatever.
Starting point is 00:48:23 He notices the phone is off of the thing, and he corrects it. He's like, uh-oh, I hope they didn't hear that. There's a moment where he's a little concerned. But yeah, I don't know. This just feels like a little performative to me, but I don't know. But it was because this was being shot from making of the band, so he probably was turning it up a little bit. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:45 And also, I think this is when he was using drugs. He started using drugs heavily in, like, what, 2011 or seven or something like that? I think he was always using drugs, to be honest with you. His boy said he wouldn't even drink before. And then at some point, he just went all the way with it. Hmm. Maybe. I have a hard time believing that a guy that aspires to be a gangster does not consume alcohol or marijuana.
Starting point is 00:49:09 I have a hard time. Really? Yeah. I think the opposite. Yeah, I think so. He's a control freak. He loves control. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:15 And alcohol and drugs take you out of control. Exactly. So he's like constantly in control until he's. He's realizing how fun Molly is. And he's like, oh, I don't try a little bit. Yeah. And then gets on a wave. I can see that.
Starting point is 00:49:25 That was like he would work for like 14 days straight. And his whole thing on all his IG lives that they're playing is how hard he works, how nonstop he goes. I'm doing X, Y, Z. You're doing some kind of uppers to keep that pace up. Yeah. And ride that way, if you would call it. And like, and not to compare them, the two of them, but it's like Trump also likes to be like and control. And he's a no alcohol, no drug guy also.
Starting point is 00:49:45 That's very interesting. And he also doesn't pay people when he. Maybe we've got to worry about these sober motherfuckers. Oh, yeah. If somebody's sober, I don't trust you. I'd do shrimps. Yeah. You need something, something.
Starting point is 00:50:02 Like, something, something, yeah. If you sober, sober, I don't trust you. Oh, man. You got to drink or something. I don't know. Do you look at everybody who's with Diddy in a video, like some rapper that's famous, I'm not even want to name names, but they're next to Diddy, and it's like, you got to know something.
Starting point is 00:50:19 So I thought about this. because like you know there's one way of looking at this and going why are all the people that are in this documentary that they're doing 30 years later
Starting point is 00:50:29 why are you guys speaking up now where were you for the last 30 years I don't think we can make these people heroes in the documentary obviously like the women that like were sexually abused assaulted like you know they're terrified they're trying to speak up
Starting point is 00:50:42 and nobody wants to take their case yeah it's very different but like none of these people speaking up now are heroes but they did they did the right thing in that if the things that they're saying are true even if it's 30 years later
Starting point is 00:50:56 saying what happened is the right thing to do it doesn't make you a hero but it's better than not saying it's still brave and it's still brave because there's motherfuckers that don't want to see that you go down he also destroys you he takes everything he takes your credibility you can't get a job he's the kind of guy who fucking ruins you
Starting point is 00:51:13 also he allegedly kills people yeah so it's like I'm in this industry he knows where I live I'm not going to say shit He's getting away with all this stuff. So it is, I completely understand why you're not saying anything. Male, female, whatever, it doesn't matter. I completely get why you're not saying anything. I'm actually asking famous rappers who are with Diddy.
Starting point is 00:51:29 And everybody, I think I heard whispers. We all see some crazy shit. And it's like, oh, you're still next to him. Do I look at you? What's the empathetic way of looking at that guy? Because there's a part of me that's judgmental, but it's easy to judge from here, from the couch. But the part of me that's judgmental is like,
Starting point is 00:51:47 you had to know something. And you're right there. So what I would ask you is how bad is Diddy compared to the dudes that they grew up with that might be involved in criminal shit? I would think worse. Because the lines he's pushing are like, yo, this is crazy. Maybe depending on how you grew up. But like if you grew up in the hood and like you're affiliated with the gang and like, you know, happy. He's like, I'm going to blow some guy's car and you go, well, yeah, that tracks.
Starting point is 00:52:13 You're the gangster. And I grew up around gangsters and they would kill people and, you know, sell drugs and shoot at that. Also, I don't think Diddy went around saying, hey, I just beat up Cassie and did this and did that. Right. It's all rumor shit. Like, we all heard the rumors about the shit, but just being out at a fucking brunch party with Diddy doesn't necessarily mean you're going to see all the shit that he's up to. Maybe you're right. I just, I think, well, from my understanding, some of the shit was public.
Starting point is 00:52:36 He was, like, he had his first wife just fucking punch her in the face in public or whatever out on the street. And maybe you're right that these guys. That wasn't public like he was indicted for it. That's a buddy of him who was with him. He was talking on the docs saying that that thing happened. Look, I'm not convinced in my position, but I'm going to push back. So the Shine thing. There's like so many things that you're like, yo, this guy, there's some weird shit going on with this guy.
Starting point is 00:53:00 Yeah, but with Shine, there was enough like bloodiness, yeah, plausible deniability where it's like, hey, maybe it could have been Shined. They both had their guns out. They both shot the guns. So it's like, we really don't know who really shot him. That's the other thing. It's very possible to shine did do it. Yeah, so, but again, the point is that, like, at this time in hip hop, now it's different, it's all theater kids, but at this point in hip hop, like, if the dudes rapping weren't real, their crew was real, and the money backing a lot of these hip hop labels was drug money. So it's like, who, if you were to get signed to someone in New York, how are you not going to be affiliated? Name the label. It's not affiliated. Like, just name it.
Starting point is 00:53:45 I'm telling you, it went back and forth. Jay got his money in the shit. What is it? Biggs put the money up for rock, right? And that's drug money. So you're connected with drug money and nefarious actors, no matter how you do it. Maybe Def Jam towards the end
Starting point is 00:54:00 had gotten really cleaned up. But like, what was the murder ink? You know, they had tough guys there. Even with Def Jam, they were just the label that's signed, but they know all the artists was up to fuck shit. Hell yeah. They were aware of shit. That's fair.
Starting point is 00:54:15 I just want to have the conversation because it does, it didn't cross my mind. I didn't have a hard position, but I was like, uh, I just think when you see foul shit with regularity, you become numb to it, you know, and in retrospect, you look back and you're like, oh my God, that's a fucking evil-ass dude. Yeah. But also, like, just talking to 50 from, you know, what life was like in New York between the gangs at that time, like, he told me, like, some of these guys are like real-life schizophrenic serial killers.
Starting point is 00:54:42 like he would go meet with some of these dudes in jail because you know he does like life right stuff for all these shows and they would say shit like yo man I'm out in 20 days and he'd be like what? He's like yeah man I can't wait man I'm out in 20 days and 50 would be like is he really getting out in 20 days like this guy's spending the rest of his life here and he'd like oh these guys are completely crazy
Starting point is 00:55:03 and either they lost it before or all the shit they went through made them lose it yeah or they're already yeah but like there's actually like the trauma I don't think goes away I mean like you kill people in the streets like that affects your brain and every day you're thinking that retaliation is coming you're paranoid everywhere you go to your point that girl Capricorn Clark was like I grew up with a mom that was I forget how she was like Diddy but she was a lot like Diddy so I just knew how to navigate that and I'm going to deal with that so that's why I could be his assistant so well so a lot of these guys probably like yeah I know how to deal with this trauma exactly and also let's take Fabulous for example like Fab would get money from doing ads for Sarac but Diddy would confront him be like yo why we have a party like what's up with you homie is like so he was keeping his distance but he also know how to play the game's like hey I'm gonna get my check over here so it's like I think there was a lot of people
Starting point is 00:55:50 navigating like that yeah but what did he eventually actually go to prison for do you remember what the actual charges violations of the man act they said this this is the thing that's the beginning and the end of every episode violations the man act and I think prostitution yeah I think that is the man act
Starting point is 00:56:06 like hey man the last episode where was that guy from that juror because if he's Indian that's a bad fucking look for us. He's like, he said, they're asking the jurors, two jurors are willing to come forward, and one of them has an accident. I can't tell, it might be Indian, but he's like, yeah, I don't know, it just seemed like him and Cassie, it was just a hot and cold relationship.
Starting point is 00:56:26 You know what I mean? They just loved each other. You know, you're seeing these sex messages, I don't know, just sell, sure, it's not consensual, but then, you know, he's beating her up with that and she said she loves them. Sometimes the internet has a hard time understanding unconventional relationship. Okay, and they jump to conclusions about certain things. Okay, ditty, Cassie, other people, maybe on this podcast.
Starting point is 00:56:50 You don't know anything. Dude, jury selection must be fired. Sorry, sorry, exactly. You're Cassie. You are 100% Cassie. Oh, man. I will say the hotel room you're getting dragged through is much more expensive than a fucking motel six or whatever she was getting rid through. So that was crazy.
Starting point is 00:57:09 You got her intercontinental. Yeah. Come on, dude. You're going to take a place where guys are also beating their wives, so it doesn't seem that. So it blends in with the sound. Exactly. Also, I heard he would pay for the floor he's on above him and below.
Starting point is 00:57:24 You can't rent out the three floors or the four seasons, but you can do that, you know. Damn. Yeah. Man, when I'm watching that video, every time I'm like, take the stairs, dude. What are you doing, taking the elevator? Yeah, it's like a horror movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Leave the shoes.
Starting point is 00:57:40 You don't need your shoes. Run. Yeah. And then he's just lurking in the towel. Yeah, shit is crazy. Guys, let's take a break real quick. So we can talk about misinformation. Propaganda.

Starting point is 01:00:18 Please feast responsibly. And he's out in a few months. Dude, I thought about that. That's the crazy shit. I know. So that's the power of the documentary, right? Because what did he wants, and he says it in the beginning of it, he's talking about losing the court of public opinion.
Starting point is 01:00:33 Yeah. And he says some stuff like, you know, we got to get some propaganda going or whatever. And what he's saying is actually not. it's not wrong. He's going, hey, you guys are, to his lawyers, you guys are going to CNN talking shit about me, but TikTok and social media is where the conversation is about me and we lost that, as he should lose that, right?
Starting point is 01:00:57 And he's telling him it's like, you guys got to do something about this. And I think that the beginning is interpreted like he's saying, hey, we've got to lie and trick and do these things, which he probably is saying 100%. But I think at that point in the case, he thought he's getting off. And all of us thought he was doing 40 years.
Starting point is 01:01:14 Think about when this case first started. We thought he was locked up 20, 40 years. The guy gets 50 months. He's going to be out of jail in two and a half years. Like he'll be on the street soon. He can watch this doc while it's still trending. Think about that. Right?
Starting point is 01:01:30 Yeah. That's why allegedly, allegedly, allegedly. There's no, allegedly. But think about this. So I think what he's doing is going, I still want to be Diddy. and I can't be Diddy if the perception of me is a certain way.
Starting point is 01:01:45 The doc is way more damaging than jail. Yep. Bingo. Jail? I honestly think. I know it sounds crazy, but if it was just the jail,
Starting point is 01:01:55 there are people that would go, oh, Cassie was into it, and yes, you should never put your hands on a wound, but she was down to do these parties and that kind of stuff like that. This is bullshit, and he might have a way to come back. I don't know if anybody can recover from this.
Starting point is 01:02:08 Yeah. He got to go to, Bali with Russell Simmons. He got a point of foreign country that he could just meditate at. Yeah. Because I don't know, you can't walk the street to New York anymore after this. You know, it's crazy. I think he can flip it.
Starting point is 01:02:22 I think he's... And they bring this up, too, in the fourth episode. By the end of the trial, PR was largely on Diddy's side. They got... Really? Do you remember all this stuff? Like, he was paying a lot of PR. He was paying people like $25 just to wear free ditty shirts outside the trial.
Starting point is 01:02:38 I saw it look like. I drove by. saw them like that's crazy but he's still a billionaire he's not broke we don't this probably this is hurt these these trials cost so much money and also when you're in jail your money goes away yeah and like and bills don't stop but all his uh sarac got taken from him but but he won that lawsuit remember he won the uh they didn't say how much they settled for I thought it was like in the bees I thought it was no I don't think it was that crazy I would look it's what Diageo or something like that yeah yeah Diageo yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Yeah. I don't think it was that crazy because Diageo has heavy pockets.
Starting point is 01:03:14 They can be like, yeah, let's just go to trial. But I thought, you don't have it. I would, you can't last. I would look that up. But I, and this could be like internet bullshit, but there was like a clause in the contract. Like if he, if he was a criminally indicted for anything that could waive, whatever, I don't know. Or convicted, not indicted. Yeah. Crazy thing about this doc and about all docs is like, it's all in the edit. because imagine this. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:40 They use footage that he was going to use to make himself look good. They used the same fucking footage to make them look like a fucking savage. And I'm like, it's all in the fucking edit. And what can you really believe when it comes to the docs at the same time? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:54 I've learned this. It's not so in the end. It's all in the end, baby. Docs are terrifying. This is why I think you're doing the PR thing. And again, maybe this Netflix thing changes everything. But even as this trial is going on, he's getting so much
Starting point is 01:04:09 fucking love in the streets. Stop. What streets? Over and over. Oh, you're talking about in the dock. Like in the public when he's like riding his bike,
Starting point is 01:04:17 not the street like Donald Harley. Yeah, but this is before Yeah, this was earlier. Yeah, this was before he was guilty. It's like, it was just the Cassie tape. We didn't know anything from trial yet. Say that sentence again.
Starting point is 01:04:30 I understand. But if you didn't see the Cassie tape, you just still love Diddy. Who didn't see that? There are some people that didn't. Apparently 12. jurors. Also, Diddy is so famous. No, this is what they did, though, smart. It's not about the, he
Starting point is 01:04:42 can't, he's not on trial for abuse. Sure, he abused her, but that's what they did. Yeah, but I'm pretty sure that was one of the questions, have you seen that tape? No, the girl, the juror says, the tape was damning. The tape let me know he wasn't a good guy, but that's not what he was on trial for. You can't use it.
Starting point is 01:04:58 It's in his inadmissible evidence. She said, I saw it, and I know what kind of guy he is from that, but that's not what he's on trial for. No. So you can't use it to dig up. And he's so famous that I just think, general people melt in the face of that type of fame yeah like i feel like ditty could walk around on the streets and there'd be a handful of people to be like yo can i grab a pick yeah like just just because you're around a famous person you're like immediately you forget everything you're like
Starting point is 01:05:20 i'm i'm in front of p ditty this is crazy and i think people would go up to and try and say and all he was guilty for is some orgies like yeah prostitution and like people go look at that and be like it's not that bad this is this is just character assassination to with see. Documentaries should be are more dangerous than weapons. I remember you said that. I did say that. Like that shit is dangerous, bro. That is like who. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:50 Yeah. I think I'd rather my enemy have a gun than a document. Right? Because like you can't, it's hard to shoot someone in public. You can make me think whatever you want me to think. But also, if you shoot me, you go to jail. If you make a documentary about me, you make money. You get an award. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:08 What? Imagine someone gave you a golden globe for shooting you in the head. That's what documentaries are. This guy's life is done. How diabolical is 50 cent. He enters a field of entertainment that he has no expertise in at all, becomes a phenomenal storyteller, curator of worlds, incredibly successful, maybe all just to build up the cachet,
Starting point is 01:06:37 to make a documentary about one of his arch nemeses and destroy his life while profiting off of it. 50 is patient. God's work, yeah. God's work on this one. 50 is patient, bro. Yeah, just don't cross it. Yo, if I'm Jay-Z, I'm shaking in my motherfucking galoshes or whatever.
Starting point is 01:06:58 I know you don't want to hear this, but if I am Jay-Z, I am terrified. Let me tell you the difference between Jay-Z and 50, the elevator footage is very different. from with Jay Z. Jay Z got elevator footage. He's with the polar opposite and Did he's elevator footage.
Starting point is 01:07:12 I want you to think he paid Beyonce's sister to hit him and him not hit her back. That might have been the greatest move in the history of the world. Now we see this poised, composed man that would never put his hands on a woman ever. That was genius.
Starting point is 01:07:26 If that was PR, that's genius. That wasn't P. He gets some licks off. They know that the cheating side is coming out. Did he pay in like $10 million or whatever to get that tape? If I was Jay Z, I'd be like, I'd pay you $10 million to leak that T and that.
Starting point is 01:07:36 It is funny seeing all the daytime TV people, the thing that they took an issue with in the doc. That's so funny. I've seen like three clips already. And they're like, yeah, I watched this Diddy documentary. And he saw a guy took on his jacket and then tried to get hand sanitizer. This guy's a demon. I was like, that's the part that you thought was bad. No, Sean, they brought that up too.
Starting point is 01:07:59 Like he was in Harlem, he's shaking hands and hugging people. And he gets in the car and he goes, I got to take a shower. I got to shake a shower and boiling water. And I think the feeling is, is like, this is a community you really say you're part of. Yeah. And you don't even want to touch them. And it's like... I thought that part was unfair editing.
Starting point is 01:08:15 Because he might have just done that all the time. And he might have been like, man, these people are hugging me. I don't know you. He might just do that with everybody. But they only did, said that after he was in Harlem. And then the whole point was you used the black community. And that could be true. But I didn't think the edit, that was a very strategically time.
Starting point is 01:08:32 Then he'd been at Burning Man every single year. Ain't no fucking showers. and every time you meet someone, you've got to hug him. Actually, he would always have the most extravagant camp that probably had showers in it. Yeah, sure, but you're hugging every single person that you meet. Then he probably showers after. Yeah, but he
Starting point is 01:08:48 wasn't fucking enough. That's a dick. He wasn't fucking the people he met in Harlem. No, that's what I mean. Like, you know, he's fucking out. So you're going to save come, but you can't hug an auntie in Harlem? This guy got some weird hypochondri of, man. Did he, bro? Did he's different, man. Did he's different. Anyway, well, he's going to be on
Starting point is 01:09:06 streets in two and a half years he'll be a burning man soon son if he's good behavior you might be out in a year dude what's the first podcast appearance for ditty who's bringing him on oh fuck who's bringing him on i mean doesn't have his own because you want him here i'm not hey i'm not saying that i'm just asking you who's gonna bring him on call her diddy who do you think brings him on that's a good question i think he does his own thing i think he does it because what is revolt like isn't that his... Yeah, but does he... Didn't he have to step down from it, or what?
Starting point is 01:09:37 Yeah, I guess. I'd have to step down. But still, like, there's an interview out there someone's going to want. Yeah, he's going to do his own thing. And he got, like, people that... They don't care what people think of him.
Starting point is 01:09:48 Like, AC, I can see, sitting down with Diddy? Act would actually do a great job. And also just ACC interviewing him about the gay shit would just be... You cannot miss... That stream would have... 100 million views just
Starting point is 01:10:05 And we'd be just weighing We'd be getting edged Right until he gets to the gay talk And the whole feed is just gonna be like You'll ask him about butt fucking Ask him about butt fucking And just have an act say the sentence Yeah
Starting point is 01:10:17 No I think he's gonna lean in He's gonna pull like Kevin Spacey vibes You know when Kevin Spacey does the plays the character Oh yeah Frank uh It was his name Frank something Underwood Yeah
Starting point is 01:10:30 And just does like the most ominous video you've ever seen Yeah That was crazy. This is the greatest tour. This is awesome. No, this is so cool. This is a modern marble. This is what you get when you join Ice.
Starting point is 01:10:49 Yo, shout out to New York Police. What happened? They arrested Ice. This is how you get one. Going back. Going back, Akash. No, he reversed that H-1 visa shit. You reverse that age 1 v.
Starting point is 01:11:04 Oh yeah, we're going to keep them? Yeah, I think so. Shout out the Indians, man. Y'all made it. Yeah. Yo, can I take a shit? Can I take a shit? I'm about to shit my pants, dude.
Starting point is 01:11:14 Can we take a break? Because I'm about to shit my pants. All right. Al-Kosh taking a little dump skis. All right, so what are his options, right? When he comes out, he could convert to Islam. That's one. That seems to be what a lot of people get canceled
Starting point is 01:11:26 that have been doing recently. Convert to Islam. So he can convert to Islam. He could ask. He could convert to Islam. to MAGA and ask for the pardon from Trump. I don't know if Trump pardons him, though.
Starting point is 01:11:38 Hmm. Yeah. They used to be boys, though. Did they? I'm pretty sure like, back in the day. On some TV shit? Yeah. Interesting. All right, so then what are the cowshee? Give us the cowshy odds for a Trump pardon.
Starting point is 01:11:54 All right. Trump pardon himself is pretty high. That's pretty high. Oh, shit. Sam Banking Fried. I mean, Barron, what did Barron do? No, I need the comb, so that's 19% but it's going down since the documentary. Oof.
Starting point is 01:12:08 Wow. So that's another thing, like, if the doc makes him so radioactive, he can't get a pardon because it looks so bad on the person that's in power. Yeah. And he's only got one crazy pardon to go. You know what I mean? It's either Diddy or Galane. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:25 You got to go Galane on that one. You really think he only has one pardon to go. I mean, in terms of crazy. Where's the political capital in giving a diddy part? Like, I think that should be zero, guys. He's been pardoning motherfuckers. He don't even know who they are. They ask them about that Asian dude, the crypto guy.
Starting point is 01:12:43 He's like, I don't know who that is. Oh, the Binance dude. Yeah. Yeah. Like, that's crazy. That is a little wild. That is wild. That's a little wild.
Starting point is 01:12:52 You can't part of someone you don't know who they are. Unless you're Biden. Why did he pardon Santos? the oh sandals is a good time because he just let him out those ones a good time he just seems like yo that's got there's got to be like
Starting point is 01:13:08 oh he's going to snitch like I this is what I imagine the pardons are it's either like a favor from someone close to you before you get out of there somebody who has been loyal to you and got hemmed up in some shit and you're like I need to protect them you know a war there is political capital in the pardoning you know January 6 people
Starting point is 01:13:28 there's political capital and pardoning all them, right? The rouse up the base. The base is excited. And I think some people just straight paying for it. I think there's a price for it. But what's the price, though? Well, allegedly, I heard this with the Binance guy. Two mil, right?
Starting point is 01:13:41 Yeah, what's the Binan's one? Like, allegedly it was like, he got pardoned, and then he has all these funds that he's able to, like, reinsert back into Trump's projects. Yeah. Like his, like crypto projects. Allegedly, I don't know if this is the case. This is what I've heard. I mean, that checks out.
Starting point is 01:13:55 So then you're paying for it, like Alsaid. Yeah. Yeah. It's like a little, you know, you scratch my back type of. I scratch yours. Did this run out of battery? Probably. Thank God.
Starting point is 01:14:05 Yeah. Yeah, I don't know, man. The part of the shit is crazy, right? Shouldn't we get rid of that? Why does the president just get to say you're allowed to do a legal shit? Right? Like, why? That's weird, the part of thing.
Starting point is 01:14:17 What's the justification for it? It's one of the checks and balances. He can push back against, like, the judicial. So if the judicial is going after someone that he can then let, pardon them. But that does the same. seem like a balance. Well, the idea is like, oh, that seems like total power. The judicial is going after people unfairly, and then you have the president that's able to be
Starting point is 01:14:37 like, no, no, you guys are overstaffing. How can they go after people unfairly if it's decided by a jury of their peers? I guess the idea is like you're levying all these charges that are frivolous, and then you're able to get them on something. But ultimately, the jury of your peers is the check against the judicial system. So if you think the judicial system is doing something abusive, then a jury of your peers sets in and goes, no, that's not the case. I just think it's like a weird amount of power to bestow upon the president.
Starting point is 01:15:01 I would do away a part of it. The founders intentionally designed it as a kind of emergency break on the justice system. So just in case the justice system got out of whack. Well, also, they can only forgive federal crimes. So it's against the federal judicial system. Like state crimes, you can't. I think the governor can let you out for state crimes of your state. Interesting.
Starting point is 01:15:22 And then, like, what would a federal crime be? Is that based on jurisdiction or is that based on the type of crime? I think jurisdiction. If like you go across state lines, it becomes federal. Yeah. Like Luigi is up for state crime and federal. See, but then there's times where pardoning is good, like the Central Park Five. That was a good pardon.
Starting point is 01:15:45 Mm-hmm. Sorry, guys. A federal crime is any act that violates a law passed by the U.S. Congress, typically involving national interests crossing state lines occurring on federal property or affecting federal agencies. and is prosecuted by the federal government and federal court. Unlike state crimes handled locally, common examples include terrorism, mail fraud, kidnapping, cross-state lines,
Starting point is 01:16:07 drug trafficking, counterfeiting, tax evasion, and cyber crimes. So stuff you need to get pardon for, little shit, you know what I mean? You do a little drug trafficking, some tax evasion, some kidnapping, and you need someone to step in and cover you, you know? Yeah. Let's be honest, this shit is tax evasion. Like, is this shit? That's what it is, right?
Starting point is 01:16:25 I mean, now probably. This is like a white, it's white collar shit so you could look after your homies before you get out of office. Because what terrorists is getting, oh, I guess January 6. Kidnapping across state lines, no one was pardoning you for that. Drug trafficking, maybe.
Starting point is 01:16:46 Like I could see you pardoning someone if you were drug trafficking, but like the CIA was the one that was importing the drugs from like some Central American. What if you're like a whistleblower? And you come out and you're like, hey, this company is doing some terrible shit or like the CIA is doing something fucked up.
Starting point is 01:16:59 They put you in jail. And then two years go by and we go, like, actually, he doesn't need life in prison. They put you in jail for treason. Right. But in reality, you did the right thing. It was patriotic. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:09 And then they bail you out. God. Okay. All right. And I think that's how they used to use it. And now they're just abusing the shit. They got to let us vote. I think we got to put it up to a vote.
Starting point is 01:17:19 I think America's got talent style. You bring five of them out and be like, all right, what did you do? Why should you be out? And then we decide. It's call in Ryan C. Crows hosting. America's got pardons. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:17:28 And you bail people out and then we get to choose and be like, all right, this guy can come out. Yeah, this is late stage capitalism, guys. It might be a lot. We run ads on it. It'll be great. It might be a rap. And then we just let people out.
Starting point is 01:17:39 And then see what they're going to do when they get out. What's going to be your first order of business? You know? All right, that's all the ditty shit, man. That's enough ditty. Enough ditty. Do not mess with 50. Do not make him a mortal enemy of yours.
Starting point is 01:17:54 That is a horrible decision. Also, don't beat and abuse and fuck guys against their will or women against their will. That ends up biting you in the long run. But, yeah, listen, we got a lot to talk about on Patreon. We got to talk about Matt Barnes sending $60,000 to an AI chick on Instagram. Allegedly. Give me his money back. He should donate that to charity.
Starting point is 01:18:21 Matt Zunkerberg should give him his money back and then Matt donates that to charity That'd be sick Yeah for online awareness That's a good thing to do I think that's a good thing to do That we could all support And it's a great charitable donation
