They sent me like a link to go and like apply for a collab, but it's like, I don't

They said it was like kind of full right now.
Yeah, too full.
So many people are buying buzz balls and we see a lot of other people trying the trend as
well.
Yeah.
Well, what happens when you're doing it for free?
Why are they going to pay you for it?

Concrete, thank you for helping the home girls.

They were super chill.
They came here with chanklas.
They're 20 and 21.
It's so funny because
Greg, Greg set this up
Yeah
He has never been more involved
In like a booking
In my life
Like hey guys they want to know
And they have availability
He went downstairs
You want to get them from the lobby
You want to get them
Got the parking validation
He had a spread for them in the green room
Like oh
So I was walking with him
And so I tell him like
Hey Greg which one have you been talking to
Because usually like when we book someone
One of us is talking to the agent
There's a point of contact.
Or like one, if it's a group, one of them is in, and then Greg's like, no, neither of them.
I'm not talking to any of them.
I'm like, wait, Greg, I'm not asking like that.
You weirdo.
That's what I took it as.
Communicating.
Yeah.
For this booking.
Yeah.
He's like, no one.
No one.
I don't even look at them like that.
What?
He's like, I can't choose.
I don't know.
What?
Whichever one wants me.
I had DM Jackie, the shorter one, right?
And so she responded.
So she's like, oh, I'll hook you up with the manager and everything.
Nice.
Nice.
So I was like, cool.
So they.
And we started talking to the manager, and that's how they came in.
But then I realized the manager is the one that runs Instagram.
So I was just like...
So you were really talking to the manager.
And then you got guy.
So you were flirting with the manager?
And the manager's a guy.
Damn it.
You were flirting with Carlos.
What the hell?
Are your toes white?
Yeah.
She's all playing along.
Shut up, Fadez.
Send me a Venmo, Fares.
That ass.
It's me off, man.
There we go.
All right, check this out, homie.
You need a homie or need some help.
We need your help.
We need a line.
I mean, phone line.
We got you for.
The homie help line.
Adrian is pissed off at his ex, and he hit her with the, it's my money and I need it now.
All right?
He hit us up and was pissed off because his ex is getting a new car after her insurance settlement.
She got in a car crash, and he paid $6,000 for that car when they were, for a down.
down payment when they were in a relationship.
So he saw her little insurance journey.
It's like, oh my God, come with me to get my back cracked and come with me, look at me
and what I'm doing.
I am getting a settlement.
She said she's getting paid.
So he was stocking her social media.
Totally.
He saw all the videos.
He saw all the videos.
And so he saw that she was at a Ben's dealership and she's saying come car shopping
with me to pick up my new Ben's.
And he's like, okay, what about my six bands though?
Yeah.
She said, what six bands?
Very deep-o of her.
She deeped him, man.
What money?
What money?
It's not you go to purchases you regret and be like, hey, I need my so-and-so money back because I regret making this purchase.
Yeah.
That's on you.
This is America, baby.
Commercialism.
You put the money up.
No one going to give your money back.
You did it.
Out of your own free will.
$1,000.
I know.
You don't go anywhere.
You drop $6K on something and it be like, hey, give you my money back because I regret that purchase.
You don't do that.
That's not even his purchase.
like giving me my money back.
Because you're not even going to return anything.
You just want your money that you paid for.
Yeah, I just want the money back.
He put the money up.
Yeah.
It was a gift.
It was a gift.
That was his girlfriend.
It sucked.
It didn't work out.
But you just got to take that L, brother.
Brody.
He's saying, you know, she wouldn't have that car if it wasn't for me in the first place.
Then you sound lame like that.
You do.
You know?
She wouldn't be going on other things.
She wouldn't exist if it wasn't for me.
She would have got another sucker to pay for.
Or another car.
Hey, hey.
Another sucker.
I don't know.
I think I want a period.
Now he's asking us if he's wrong for wanting the money back.
I just want to cry.
I'm so mad.
You also.
You too.
My utter is.
Gere chocolate.
That's good.
Yes.
He's asking up if he's wrong.
If he's wrong for asking for the money back now that they broke up.
And also, what's the pettiest?
anyone has ever done during a breakup.
And respectfully, you're not wrong.
It's just not going to work out in your favorite, brother.
You can't go to court and say this.
You didn't put your name on the lease.
Like, you didn't, all those things that people would be like,
you should have done that, you know, like to, like, to like.
In a civil case, and it's not like you were married.
And it's not like, divide the assets.
No, because they hate each other.
So you're not trying to be moral.
Who wants to be moral when that's your egg?
Yeah.
Like to her, I just got in an accident.
Something happens to me.
And now he just wants my, like imagine her place in that.
Like, she can.
But also when they were together, I mean, imagine how weird it would be to be like,
all right, here, I'm going to give you the $6,000.
Just sign here in case anything goes wrong.
You're going to, like, it does sound.
It would be surprised, man.
It would be awkward.
But it would be the right thing to do if you guys aren't going to be together forever or you don't see it.
That's not baller, though.
It's like, it's like.
So then be baller.
It's not baller of him asking for the money back.
He's a little 6K.
Here's a little 6K.
That's beautiful.
Here's a little 6K.
Yeah.
It ain't nothing.
Yeah, it's not.
And you want to go eat after?
Yeah, but it's not baller.
Like, you hand it.
Right, what he's doing right now is not ball.
But he's doing right.
Well, he doesn't want to be baller anymore because you lost my ball in this.
You had enough.
If you put six-k, if you put six-k, you had enough to be like co-sanger or something.
I was just like if I see out with another dude, man, I've got that $6,000 worked out.
How's that new car doing?
It's damaged and now I got a bend.
I'm going to buy you two a drink.
You look like you need it.
Yeah.
Just walk away.
So then that won't happen.
Yeah, I know.
Do you, buddy?
Talk to her, man.
You need a car too?
I got you too.
Aw.
And then he's really sad inside.
I do it.
Then it's like, why did I do that?
Yeah, I'm mad.
For the plot.
Okay, but we want to know petty things that have happened in a breakup.
It seems like the pettiness is going on high alert with them.
They're commenting on TikToks and demanding 6K and all of that.
What is a petty thing you or your ex did?
Let's go to Julie and a bell.
What's up, Julie?
Julie.
Hi, good morning, guys.
Hi, good morning.
Julie, were you petty or was he petty or you both were petty?
No, I mean, I could be petty, but I choose not to be sometimes.
But no, he's still being petty until this day because I'm recently going through a breakup.
So almost similar to what he's going through.
So he got me a car about three years ago.
He put the down payment to the car, which was $3,000.
and now because of the breakup he's like give me my $3,000 back because you're not going to be driving around in a car that I got to
and again I had to still lease the car with him.
There's still other payment.
So he's co-signer.
Oh.
See?
Yeah.
I'm co-signer still.
I'm the co-signer.
So he still calls, like tries to call a bank to come repo the car.
He tries to get me on a three-way with him.
them so I can give the consent to come pick up the car, but I just always decline the calls.
Julie.
Are you, wait, but why repo it?
Are you not paying for it or?
No, I'm paying for it.
He's just being petty because he doesn't want me.
Because I paid $3K.
He's like, hey, I don't want to pay this payment anymore.
And then they're like, you need the co-signer's consent.
Yes.
He wants to get the car back.
I don't want this car anymore.
I want to give it back.
She needs to consent to giving it back.
Yeah, but who's the primary.
purchase on the who is it he is he is he is but they still need my consent consent and also
I've tried refinancing it and he doesn't want to give the consent either you too
all the deal both of you steal me that and I always just tell him like well I've been paying
the car off for this in so many years that's the $3,000 is there it's helping your credit still
and take it out of the money out of the times that you left me
When you're in jail, when you're in a hospital dying, I had to pay rent and bills all by myself.
So take the $3,000 out of all of that when you left me alone to pay.
That's what ends up happening.
It's like, all right, if we're going to, if we're going to give an invoice, let me give you an invoice too and hear things that I can put it.
The plot thickens.
Yeah, yeah, his fault.
He was almost dying.
In my, yeah.
For bills that they probably shared.
So if you're saying, hey, you owe me this for something we shared, I can hit you back with, owe me this for something we shared too.
In the sandwich that I got.
It just sucks when it turns around on you because you didn't think of those charges.
You're like, oh, damn, yeah, you do do that.
You did get coffee.
Yeah, yeah, I was like, damn, okay.
Well, not the coffee one, but like I paid rent.
Oh, yeah, the big ones.
Oh, yeah, I tried to live in the house.
Okay, well, have a good day.
I'll see you on the other side.
I'll see you on.
But Julie, you said something happened with your ring camera because none of this that you're telling me is what's in the notes.
So now he, he, like, stalked me around and drives back and forth up and down my street.
So I he ended up just stealing my doorbell camera so I don't see him coming
This guy stole your doorbell camera
Be careful
What a creep
I know I'm scared
Yeah don't laugh
Just come his money back just come a thousand
Do you think that if you gave him the money he would stop?
No
I think he's just he he's hurt
He's hurt
But I mean
I don't know what to do
about it? No, that's a symptom. The pain is the breakup and you do all the other things
that's him. He just wants his 3,000 back. That's it. I don't think he wants a bad. He doesn't. He wants
her back. Yeah. Yeah. The ring camera had nothing. The ring camera is so funny. Stole that
so you can't see me coming. Peter. Peter. Peter. Peter. In Irvine. Peter. I'm here. I'm here.
Peter. We're talking about petty things. Morning, Bradford. An ex has done to you or you've done to
an ex. Peter. Talk to us. Uh, so one year I bought my
ex-girlfriend a past one of the best theme parks out there okay okay and uh like two to three weeks
later we broke up and then a month later she was there with another dude oh that's he was
posting it on like IG on her Facebook on everything oh for the passes to the best
theme park in the world and then you guys break up very shortly after then she uses
those passes to take another guy?

but she was going with the one I had purchased.

For you guys
Hey let's just
Stay together
For the
Yeah that's
I'm gonna go to matthar right there.
Yeah.
Yeah, because, I mean, that was our first date.
That was like the,

So when renewal came by,
I renewed hers under my name.
Oh.
So I had paid it in full.
And that's one.
Oh, no.
Such a nice guy.
You paid it in full, dog.
And then it didn't work out.
Yeah.
And then she's taking her other Vato now, basically.
Yeah, she was taking her other auto.
And you know, her other Vato was my, uh,
brother-in-law's son.
Oh.
What?
Is that your sister's, your sister's man's son?
Yeah.
Oh.
So my brother-in-law is on the older side, so he had his son that was, he might have been like 22 at the time.
We were 24.

They're messy in Irvine.
Apparently.
I'm going.
I'm going.
I'm going to pass it very well here.
Te dejo dos

memories of Disneylandia.
Yeah me go.
And those passes can be really
expensive.
Yeah, they're right to you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
So someone in here did the same thing.
I was thinking.
You can treat this.
person like your girlfriend, your ex-girlfriend.
It's Greg.
Yeah, I did that same exact thing.
So I found out that she was still paying for the passes and she couldn't cancel them.
Because it's like a whole year.
Payment plan, right?
So I happened to log into my app to see, because I was already going.
So I was like, I'm going again.
With the girl.
With the girl.
Because I noticed, I was like, wait, I already have tick.
Wait, what is this?
I have the passes still?
Yeah.
And every month I would go with a different, I would go with different girls.
Wow.
That was like his little player.
Let me show you the world.
Wow.
On my exes dying.
And both her.
No wonder we're all blocked.
Hers and eyes passes were still on my phone.
You're a horrible person.
I would go whenever I had the chance to go.
Yeah.
He's just like your ex.
He's just like your ex.
He's just like your ex home me.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I even went to try and tell him she died.
They were like, no, we need a death certificate.
Yeah.
Hey, Photoshop.
Dude, there's plenty of those on.
That's so petty of you trying to tell Disney that she died.
La Mato, la Matoa, yeah.
All right, thank you, bro.
Yeah, I would do it all the time, every single month.
Oh, you know what?
You still have them?
No, no, it got canceled.
No, after the year.
After the year, it was like,
he went willy-nilly with girls at the theme park.
Damn.
Oh, my goodness.
All right.
Don't be petty.
Yeah, don't be petty.
Go ahead.
And if you're petty, don't be petty.
Don't be petty.
Don't be petty.
Don't be petty, but if you are petty, call us up and tell us to us.
Please.
That's what we're doing here.
I'm part of one of them.
What's up?
This is Be Real from Cyprus Hill.
Where are you from, Esse?
Don't you know I'm local?
Does anyone remember the movie Jumanji?
Oh, yeah.
Jumanji?
Of course.
Okay, does anyone remember in that movie the girl got chased down the street with?
Um, the rhinos?

She got ch.
Pipapodamus?

Like all the monkeys
Yeah, I was like
Bats

The original girl
Bats
Yeah
She opened like the door
Unless my brain
Yeah
The end
And then I chased it down the street
Nobody
I vaguely remember
Maybe
Or maybe my brain is just
sailing a different
Anyway that's happening in real life
What?
Over in Pasadena
Oh
Oh
The authorities are putting out
A public health
Warning
People
to stay away because bats for the second time over in Pasadena have tested positive for
rabies.
Yes, the latest one was found this past Thursday near the baseball field at Brenner Park over in
Pasadena.
And I just want to tell you one, I did not know that Pasadena had bats because Pasadena is a very
nice place.
Yeah, Whittier has them too.
What?
When I would play baseball, they would be at the baseball field because they are attracted to the lights.
Okay, I have never came in contact with.
with a bat, how is it?
They're very loud.
They're trying to the light?
Yeah, they're super loud.
So the baseball fields have those like portable lights.
You're one of those in the dark caves.
Yes.
That's to sleep.
I thought they were attracted to the fruit.
I thought they were nocturnal.
Aren't they fruit bats?
No, yeah.
Whittier has a lot of bats.
So like I would be playing baseball and they would go attack those lights like very
loud and they're in groups.
It's not like just one or two.
It's like a lot of them.
Well, if you're like me and you never came in contact with the bat and like you're like,
you're like, hey, I want to go see who stuff over there.
Don't do it because these ones have rabies.
Oh, oh.
Don't touch the bats.
They're not friendly.
It's not like cute little.
Oh my God, maybe it's a vampire.
No, no, no.
It can give you rabies and rabies is very bad for your health.
It is.
It's really creepy just in general.
Like, have you ever seen them when they flap their wings?
No.
Like they expose themselves.
They're naked under there.
They show you their whole package.
It's an animal.
Yeah, they don't have clothes, Vic.
I know.
They need to have some, though.
That's indecent exposure.
It's weird.
They're like wearing a trench coat.
I think they're cute.
They're like little puppies.
Hell no.
Puppies?
Not even.
You guys have the wrong image of bats.
Like if you look at a close-up of a bat, it's actually pretty cute.
It's like wearing a trench coat.
You said you came in contact with a bat, concrete.
Yeah, a little one.
Where?
My house was outside.
It was hurting.
I think it got maybe like one of its wing was broken.
Oh, okay.
So I did what anybody would do.
Just took it out of his misery.
Shut up, really?
Do you do it with a bat?
Oh.
What you do it with?
Nah, just put it in a little chokehold.
No, you didn't.
He's lying.
You're such a little liar.
Are you making new stories?
Cute little face.
They're not cute.
They're not cute.
I think it's cute.
Those things are weird.
Show when it opens its wings.
It's weird.
Look at it.
It's a little puppy.
It's not a puppy.
Show it, though.
He's like laying down right there.
I'll sex.
Kind of look like a chihuahua.
I'm sexy right there.
All sex is a little bat.
All right.
All sex is a little bat.
All right.
Do not.
You have tested positive for rabies.
If you see one on the floor, maybe it's hurt injured dying, leave it alone too because those ones can still bite you and you will get rabies.
And if you ever seen anything about rabies, look, you can die.
Yeah, you could.
You turn all crazy.
You get, yeah, exactly, drooling.
No, no, it's a whole.
I know, you get, like, false.
You don't like water for some reason.
Oh, really?
It's so weird.
Wow.
I might have rabies.
Wow.
Wow.
It's okay.
It's okay.
He's tired and he's grumpy and he's just going in on anyone.
I'm crashing right out, dog.
Yeah, you're crashing.
You're crashing.
Shoot the J.
Shoot it.
Playball.
All right, you guys.
There's a Mexican UFC fighter.
All right.
I want you to know we're losing it and then usually I kind of care, but today I don't know.
What are we doing?
Why do you rev up like that?
Because you remember it.
And you took edgy's eye.
right, you guys.
No, no, I took it from somebody else.
All right, you guys.
You guys said two guys.
Two guys.
Well, there is a Mexican UFC fighter who's killing it and teaching us how to kill it in a street fight.
All right.
His name is Rafa Gifted Garcia.
He's from Mexicali, but he trains in the O.C.
And he was here with us, and we had so many questions for him, including why he picked
MMA instead of boxing since most Mexicans want to be boxers.
This is what he said.
I think so that no, I think the sported me to go to me.
I started with Jiu-Jitsu, so that was the first,
was the first base, and then I went to
a little to boxing.
My dad said, if you're boxing with
someone and you're getting to the
boxing, so when I started with Jiu-Jitsu,
with Al-Lucci, all of that.
I said, can you translate that?
Can you translate it?
Well, he said he felt like the sport
chose him, M.M.A did.
And then also that if he's in a street fight
and you get down to the ground,
then boxing's over.
Now you have to figure out what to do on the floor.
Yeah, that's what his dad told him.
His dad told him, his dad told him boxing's only good
until you get on the floor.
and then what you're going to do?
And then he's like, I'm going to do Jitsu.
Exactly.
And so speaking of fights, we're like, okay, like, give us some advice for what we should do in a street fight.
And this is what he said.
So, he pegas first one.
Pekle it.
What?
