and the co-author of the new book, Runs in the Family,
an incredible true story of football, fatherhood, and belonging, written with and about Las Vegas Raiders running backs coach,
Dylan McCullough.
It's the story of a football coach and father of four
who sees his life forever changed by the unsealing of his adoption records. And it's got a twist you won't believe.
Based on the viral ESPN story I did a few years ago, this book will blow your mind

That's it,
that motherfucker.
How hard I would sweat.
Oh, yeah.
Y'all would have thought
I ran five.
It was so hot out there.
Listen, man,
we love y'all for sure
because we came from Dreamville early
straight to the studio, man.
Let's talk about it, man.
It's your first festival?
For real, for real?
How was it?
Yo, I rock with Cole,
but yeah, festival's not for me.
No, no, no.
He's not good in that environment.
Uh-uh.
It's just a lot.
I'm a boogey.
I'm just going to admit it.
I don't do well. I'm just gonna admit it I don't do well
I'm like Tripp
I don't do well with people
you honestly
could have did well
if we had like
I ain't gonna say
was
carried to more
cause you know
to me I feel like
they showed us love
but if you was able
to sit up in the Hennessy
dang
you'd have been cool
yeah
like if everybody
performed on that stage
oh yeah
if it was one
yeah you'd have like the walking back and everybody performed on that stage oh yeah if it was one yeah
you'd have had like
the walking back and forth
that was
I'm not built for that
I was so proud of you
yesterday
I was like
people don't know
that boy's social media
is not high at all
so the fact that you
dealt with all those
people walking up
cause every 15 seconds
we heard
Jeff T
oh my god it's Jeff T
that shit was funny as shit
oh shit
yeah
I fuck with the people
it was cool
it was actually cool
to be out there
and meeting all them people
and shaking hands and stuff.
That was fun.
But like I said,
it's hot.
And then people start asking you,
like, yo, you take a picture?
You're like, yeah,
I'll take a picture.
And after the 200th picture,
you're like,
all right, man,
I'm just trying to make it to the...
I really just want to sit down.
I'm sweating.
Y'all see the back of my neck?
Y'all see my shirt?
It's wet.
Why you leaving that motherfucking dude? Like, man, can I get a picture of this dick down. I'm sweating. Y'all see the back of my neck. Y'all see my shirt. What are you leaving that motherfucker do?
Like, man, can I get a picture of this nigga?
I'm tired.
I'm saying, man, that nigga bogus.
He could have looked to the left for a little bit.
But I feel it, though.
I get it.
I get it.
Because they don't know that the first 150 people you said you took pics with, but 151,
one dude was just like, is that Jep T?
And you kind of looked at him and was like, man, fuck that nigga.
I was like, bro. Bro me.? You kind of look at him and walk. He's like, man, fuck that nigga. I was like, bro.
He didn't even have no
energy to respond.
I'm drained, bro.
The first two hours, bro, I was cooked.
I enjoyed that moving through the crowd, though.
That shit was, that's, I like shit
like that. I know that was fun, but
that,
you want to be put up.
One dude
got so excited he forgot his password to his phone.
Wow.
I was like, bro, he missed
his password four times. He gonna say,
I'm drunk. I gotta
go, man.
We got people from all over that watch this motherfucker
too. Yeah, I fuck with it. I ain't gonna
lie, I like being with the people. I actually like
that more than when we was going through
the VIP. Like, when we was walking through the crowd
and we was talking to people,
that was cool. It was the other part.
Like, when we went through the VIP,
you got... Oh, yeah, I know you
something. Yeah, you know what I mean?
Give me your band! Yeah, alright, man.
I'm ready to go. First things first,
man, shout out to Dreamville. The team who
put that together, that shit is magnificent
that whole city
Raleigh
we had Raleigh fucked up
Raleigh solid as hell
but for them to have that
so organized
and we didn't see
no bullshit
I mean we didn't see
no crazy stuff happening
that many people
in that space bro
that was crazy to see
I don't complain often bro
I appreciate everything
that come with stuff like that
cause I run a business
not to that magnitude
but I get it.
But y'all got to get them first people.
Them greeters,
they're everything, bro.
To the energy,
to the spot, bro.
Them niggas was mean as hell.
Yeah, bro.
So whoever you are

Shout out to bro.
You lowkey had us fucked up, bro.
You was thugging too hard, bro.

And I know they don't
pay you enough, bro.
BN said,
man, I don't want you to get fired, bro. He said, fired? Nigga ain't worry about no job. Yeah, I said... Why you going this hard, bro. We like... And I know they don't pay you enough, bro. I don't want you to get fired, bro. He said,
fired? Nigga, I ain't worried about no job.
Why are you going this hard, bro?
If you don't care about getting fired, bro.
And that's like, he look like the nigga
when you first get out of jail, bro.
They don't got no jobs for you, bro.
For you, it's probably a surviving feeling.
So, I get it, bro.
It's probably your first couple weeks out on the real
soil again. Everybody's like, everybody, bro. Money show, bro. He like, bro, I'm it, bro. It's probably your first couple weeks out on the real soil again.
This is cool.
Buddy, show love.
He like, bro, I'm going to get you.
Yeah, y'all fine.
We're going to get you. Come on, man.
He ain't no way y'all standing out there.
Man, we got you.
Buddy, get the buddy, man.
Yeah, man.
Fuck all that, man.
I said.
I ain't paying you.
Damn, love.
Cole don't even know me, bro.
How about I start roasting it in?
We don't get all white.
They can get to it.
Yeah, you about to get to it.
It look like Hurricane Chris.
Hurricane Chris.
I'm chill.
It was so crazy when Mike walked up.
He's like, man, I ain't even get pat down.
What niggas on?
But you have a wine, bro.
And then he pulled it out like it was wine.
Slam ass thing.
Pulled it out like he had the power? Slave-ass thing. Pulled it out like he had...
Pulled him up with a paddle.
Man, what you doing, man?
Nigga, get in the job right in those bro.
AP don't let us get through this fucking line, bro.
Fucking whine.
Don't even whine me.
Let me walk through here.
What the fuck was that?
Was that a tennis racket in your head,
bitch-ass nigga?
So, Cole, you got to get that nigga together.
Because he had pissed me off.
And now I'm shitting y'all over again.
Because I was hot as fuck already.
That was the initial part.
I'm like, bro, the greatest y'all supposed to be getting the people going.
You know what I'm saying?
At least, because you know my folks got a waiting line.
So, at least you can do is be nice, bro.
But that was great.
That was one.
That was probably the only backstab we had.
Nah, hell yeah.
Everybody was so mad.
You know, Hennessy.
Hennessy did what Hennessy do.
Hey, come on, Hennessy.
Shout out to the Hennessy family.
They always show love. And know, Hennessy. The Hennessy did what Hennessy do. Hey, come on, Hennessy. Shout out to the Hennessy family. They always show love.
Yeah, Sean.
And shout out to Cole, too.
Mm-hmm.
Cole show love once we got to the top, once we got up there.
Prove it.
Shout out to Cole.
Shout out to Eve.
Check.
We would have had video of that, but you know what I'm saying?
Due to the unforeseen circumstances.
Cole, check.
My uncle.
For Cole, man, it's check, my uncle.
He's like, I'm going to delete that.
Nah, let me see you delete it.
Mike got a pocketbook
for remembering to ever bring it out.
Shout out to Moe getting checked for the first time.
That's a part of the journey, bro.
You can't record or anything.
Nah, you got to ask permission, bro.
Can't just pull your phone out at any time, bro.
I like that.
Nah, yeah.
Hold it down.
The real NDA.
And what was so fire
is they had levels
to the VIP
it was JV
it was varsity
it was MVP
and it was Hall of Fame
we find out
we was not Hall of Fame
we try to walk up
the stairs
we got to Hall of Fame
we got escorted out
nah
fuck the Hall of Fame
Ryan
shout out to my dog Ryan
we love you Ryan
you know we love you
but you telling us
to come on
and leave it up
you out of pocket
so hopefully your team
clip this up
he said
he said come on
I walked into the station
like you ain't
Hall of Fame
I said
that's what I said
damn
yeah I said
I said
I don't got a gold jacket
I just made the MVP
okay
it's great I tried to play it off, too.
I was like, yeah, it is.
It's hot up there.
It had all types of air conditioning.
That shit was different.
It was a different world, but it had candy.
It was up there vibing with the fans.
The floor looked different up there.
I didn't know we was at a festival no more, bro.
I thought it was a derby.
Yeah, that's how it looked.
Damn, that's accurate as hell.
The funny part about it is if you look at the MVP, it's solid.
But that Hall of Fame, that bitch was busted.
It was go.
He said, let me see your wrist.
I said, we ain't supposed to be up here.
I walked right to the Hennessy booth like, yeah, I'm with them.
And I'm like, what is Ryan?
I don't even think Ryan had on one.
I'm like, what is I'm with them. And I'm like, what is Ron? I don't even think Ron had on one. I'm like, what is...
Oh, okay.
What is he saying walking through here?
He probably thought we had a little bit more clout.
Yeah.
They was not fucking with us.
They knew who we were.
J. Cole was right there.
You five sweet niggas, y'all better lock in.
I just started laughing when niggas turned around.
I'm like, we can't get it done yet.
I'm like, he just told us to come up.
Like, nigga, at least put in a word for us, Ron. And I feel like... I feel like he just told us to go like nigga at least put in a word for us right
and I feel like
I'm like
I feel
that's the moment
in my life
I was like
I gotta work harder
even when I had that moment
before on the pod
we talking about
I was like I gotta do more
that was the moment
I was like I gotta do more
cause I seen the two girls
walking up
working for Hennessy
I was like
I was like damn
I'm about to ask
these two girls
to pull me
that's my life
come to hey can y'all give me up. That's my life come to.
Hey,
can y'all get me in?
Can y'all go get
the white boy with,
that's what these
niggas was saying.
Can y'all go get
the white boy
with the gray ducks?
Yeah,
we got the
Hennessy short time.
My boy had T-scouts.
I'm showing
some respect to Ron.
Oh,
he did have
some respect to T-scouts.
T-scouts,
shout out to Ron,
gang,
gang.
Nah,
that's funny.
I was dying,
man.
Man,
the best part about the festival shit
is seeing all the different types of people
at the festival, bro.
This particular festival had a certain
particular type of person.
That's why I think it was super dope, too,
because wasn't no smut, wasn't no fights.
Everybody was vibing.
Shout out to the niggas who was taking naps out there.
Y'all a different type of lock there.
When we walked in, it was 85 degrees,
and Buddy was out there sleeping on the ground,
him and his wife.
Wow. I said, to see a lot more white people.
Y'all do some shit together.
I was definitely expecting to see a lot more white people.
Nah, when we seen Buddy laid out
with the black forces with the white laces,
I said he is tired from things
that had nothing to do with this festival.
Yeah, I said he too tapped in.
I was in a white cube. I'm like, nah, bro.
Ain't no telling what your girl put you through'm like, nah, bro. I ain't no telling
what your girl put you through
to get in here, bro.
If your girl complain,
oh, my mama don't take her
to Dreamville.
Yeah, yeah.
You go to her
and complain to her, bro?
Yeah.
I promise y'all.
She got to be a trench baby
to go to Dreamville.
She has to just
know the vibes, bro.
Yeah, she either got to
be cool with being hot,
like drinking,
or just one with the earth.
Yes, bro, because that's all it was after.
Because I'm a complainer, so it can't be two of us.
Because if your girl don't got a fro or dreads,
drink him day one.
It's not for her.
Definitely not day two.
Definitely.
Your personnel is everything bro
that's one of my tips
for next year
with all damn
it's icing
I'm mad we had to leave
early cause I would've
loved to seen Cole
so I know
it's gonna be fire
man I ain't not telling
who we gonna bring out
yeah I hate that
we had to leave
damn
shout out to everybody
that showed us love
and ralph you know
yeah that was a good time
nah for sure man
crazy love to move off the subject we gotta talk about we was there for the Hot Boys performance to leave. Shout out to everybody that showed us love and ralph, you know? Yeah, that was a good time. Nah, for sure, man. Crazy love.
To move off the subject,
we gotta talk about,
we was there for the
Hot Boys performance
and me and you
was going back and forth
about who got off
wilder shit in their songs
between Birdman
and Juvenile.
Juvenile said a wild bar.
Juvenile
really got some crazy bars
to start all his songs off.
Yeah.
What did he say?
Can't say it.
You just gotta go listen to Slow Motion.
I beat up in my home. Make it official.
Give me some of that dough. That is
crazy. In a three-part
transition, you beat the DV
allegation that said, I'm straight though.
Let me get some head. That's crazy,
bro. You can't say that.
Yeah. Don't worry about the
hoes. I beat up in my home yeah bro
that's wild bro
make it official
give me some of that dough
bro
yeah
when we talk about
Birdman
he damn near
the second
second best artist
on
Cash Money
on the catalog
gotta respect
Brian Williams bro
you have to respect it bro
cause when he's playing
his shit
like it was like
levels he came out they play you was playing his shit, it was like levels. He came out,
they played, you know,
whatever they played first. It was hard.
I'm not putting Birdman over Juvia now.
No, no, no. I don't count Juvia. Juvia is a solo artist.
Oh, okay. I'm talking about the rest
of the niggas. Like BG, Tert.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Fresh. Oh, damn, bro.
BG, it just, the music
didn't transition.
But BG was that nigga. Copper City Nugget was a classic rapper. BG, it just, the music didn't transition. But BG was that nigga back then.
Copper City in the Ghetto was a classic rapper.
I mean, he was that nigga, but Birdman got his.
That nigga came out of nowhere.
What happened to that boy?
I said, damn, I forgot that song.
Yeah, that chorus pulled, but it hit.
The nigga making the bird noise next to me.
I said, bro, yeah, you tapped it.
Oh, that's nasty.
Nah, but I ain't gonna lie.
When they play,
everybody get your roll on.
That was hard.
Hey, Manny Fresh
started that song off
with straight fire.
Manny Fresh went crazy
on that song, bro.
He built for moments like that.
He's a festival DJ for sure.
Like, I feel like
he could have ran that
like by himself,
just bringing people out.
If they would have let him
do that,
that would have been fire.
Who was the most disappointing to y'all?
Disappointing?
Like, if y'all was... Party next door.
Yes, I agree. Yeah,
P&D said was not the vibe.
I feel like... I went to bed.
21 could have remixed his set.
21 got a fire set. He could have
just remixed the
playlist. And Chief too.
Yeah. Chief came out to the... Damn. He came out to 300. But... remixed the playlist and Chief too.
Chief came out to the damn.
He came out to 300.
But the most
disappointing though
is PnD.
Yeah, I went to PnD.
Because he do got some shit.
But it just
I didn't know the vibes.
I walked to the other
we walked to the other side.
Yeah.
I think we fucked up 21
because we was trying
to get over for
Hot Boys and them shit.
Because when we got over there
that's when shit got active.
That's why I said
this shit really should've
been reversed though.
And his catalog is elite.
Nah, 21 got the hit.
He one of my favorite young rappers.
I ain't gonna say young.
He a young girl rapper.
He probably my favorite
younger rapper.
Yeah, 21 catalog is elite.
Him and Big X the plug.
I'm mad we couldn't see Big X.
Oh, man.
Dreamville Fest went crazy, man.
And we was talking about it.
They said, you know, it may not be Dreamville Fest going forward,
but they definitely going to do some more festivals there.
They got the city for it.
Yeah.
And the fact that, like you said, they put that together.
This year five for them, bro.
That shit's amazing, bro.
Shout out to Cole.
Shout out to the Dreamville team, man.
That shit.
Y'all did y'all's thing, man.
Shout out to Hennessy for having us there.
We appreciate y'all for sure.
Yeah, for sure.

Who made it, man? Mello in that joint.
Shout out to Carmelo. First ballot.
As he should.
Dwight Howard, first ballot. As he should.
And then you got the whole 2008
U.S. Olympic team.

Yeah. Oh, okay. That's fire, by the way.
The Redeem team got it in there.
So you got Chris Paul and LeBron in the Hall of Fame.
They still playing.
That's tight.
That's crazy.
I'm looking at some of the women's side, too.

Mickey Erickson got in there as well.
Hey, Mickey.
And Danny Crawford, the referee.
Oh, OG.
I rock with OG.
Danny Crawford was a cool-ass ref, man.
One of the coolest refs out.
That's fire.
I didn't know that referees was a Hall of Fame, but that's fire.
He deserved it, though.
He was always solid.
You ain't had to cuss at him.
No, he was a solid ref.
He was cool.
He talked to you before the game.
I remember his son
used to hoop at Northwestern.
Damn.
He used to talk to me
about his son
before the games and stuff.
He was cool, too.
Yeah, that's the first ref I heard.
I mean, I'm sure
there's plenty more,
but he the first notable one
that I know that made it.
Yeah, shout out to Danny.
Tim Dunn,

the podcast, focus on your emotional well-being and climb your personal mountain. Because it's
impossible for you to be the most authentic you. It's impossible for you to love you fully if all
you're doing is living to please people. Your mountain is that. Listen to Made for This Mountain

I know a lot of cops, and they get asked all the time,
have you ever had to shoot your gun?
Sometimes the answer is yes.
But there's a company dedicated to a future
where the answer will always be no.
Across the country, cops call this taser the revolution.
But not everyone was convinced it was that simple.
Cops believed everything that taser told them.
From Lava for Good and the team that brought you Bone Valley
comes a story about what happened when a multi-billion dollar company
dedicated itself to one visionary mission.

I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on good company,
the podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next.
In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything but ordinary.
We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel seen. What others dismiss as niche,
we embrace as core. It's this idea that there are so many stories out there. And if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content,
the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen.
Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide.
And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets.

I ain't going to lie.
That's a lot of ones.
Paying me for 50,000 in one.
Bro, listen.

I'm not no scary, y'all.
But if I'm paying a blind man,
I'm going to just rub the money together like this, bro.
Two bills. How the fuck together like this, bro. Two bills.

He didn't scratch
that up twice.
Ain't no way,
bro.
What?
That dude's senses
was crazy.
Ray knew every bitch

$1,000 in Monopoly money
that day.
Hell no, they know the texture, money. They know the texture, bro.
They know the texture.
They know the texture of real money, bro.
They got paid before.
I don't believe it, bro.
Ain't too many transactions.
Well, that's back in the day.
How about I say,
you got to think how many times
you deal with a nigga
giving you cash in your hand, bro.
You don't really deal with it like that.
I'm saying at that time.
At that time.
Now, they direct deposit.
But that's what you should do to a blind nigga. It's in there, bro. You don't really deal with it like that. At that time. Now, they direct deposit. But that's what you should do to a blind
nigga. It's in there, bro. Just
try to swipe this card.

Are you talking to blind people?
Yeah, bro. Right now, bro,

Oh, God.
I truly feel that, bro.
Jeff.
That's a waste of a bill, bro.
You're about to really sit here
and what I'm saying is
because whatever,
like I told y'all,
we shouldn't be talking
about this on here,
but what I told y'all,
when y'all start building
whatever you thought
you was about to pay,
you're going to pay way more.
So if you're going to do all that
and go through that
and put one TV room, nigga, you're going to pay way more. So if you're going to do all that and go through that and put one TV
room, you might
as well go get a luxury
condo and just thug it out.
Take the money, the cost of
it aside. My dream
house is $4,200.
That's not your dream house, bro.
That's what you can afford. That's not your dream
house.
That's not your dream house. Because. That's not your dream house.
Because my dream house I can't afford.
I'll be on Zillow looking through my fucking mirror.
I know.
In 20 years, if I still live in this house in 20 years,
I'm not going to want to walk around 20,000 square feet.
You a lot.
I'm going to want 4,200 square feet.
This is going to be smooth.
Maybe I want to build my dream 4,200 square foot house.
I'm just saying you can find that already built.
But it ain't my dream one.
I want...
Yeah, he's saying what he want.
No, nigga, you want it more.
You want it more.
Mike was okay with no basement.
Yeah, he had a pocket.
He had a pocket, no basement.
Spacious.
I think it's definitely about preference.
But I'm just saying, bro, you
are out-of-pocket. 4,200.
I don't even know the average home
in our state.
Like, the size of it. Nah, I'm not saying...
4,200, bro, is like... I'm saying that's a nice house.
But I'm saying to go build
it, like,
and, like, really map it out, bro. You about
to build a cookie-cutter house, kind of.
And the point he had,
which is the value point,
he said,
when you build a house,
you incur way more fees
with things you don't expect.
Yeah, he about to.
So he said,
go for the gusto
if you're going to do all that.
Yeah, if you're going to do all that.
6,000 square foot, me.
Basement.
The average home is
1,600 square foot in Indiana.
I'm not saying it ain't,
but you talk about building.
It's my dream house.
That is not your dream. Jeff is saying, at least buy it and renovate it. I ain't saying it ain't, but you talk about building. It's my dream house. That is not your dream.
Jeff is saying at least buy it and renovate it.
I ain't saying that.
I'm just saying that ain't his dream house.
But it's not.
He's lying to me.
I don't know.
Y'all know how humble of a person I am.
You're very humble.
I don't really know.
We know you.
No, he's not.
That's a lie.
He's very humble. Who, him? I him. We know you. No, he's not. That's a lie. He's very humble.
Who, him?
Yeah, he's...
I mean,
Mike got a lot of money.
Yeah, but I'm saying he's...
No, no.
He's a dick.
He's trying to fit in,
but Mike has a lot of money.
Yeah.
He was retired
before he did this podcast.
Yeah, literally.
I just think
if you got a 42...
If you buy...
Even if you just buy
a 4,200 square foot house,
you did damn good.
No, your life is great.
You have a beautiful home.
But I'm sorry.
We were talking about building.
We were.
And I'm not saying nothing is wrong with building a 4,200 square foot.
I'm talking to Mike.
I'm not talking to the rest of the world.
Oh, so it just applies to you.
Yeah, because I'm like, nigga, stop playing.
I thought you were speaking to me.
Because you're telling me I want a house with no basement.
At first, you were like, I don't even want a basement.
I'm like, you're lying.
Where are you going to watch TV at peace?
You're like, it's 4,200 square feet.
I said, you have seven kids.
I thought you was talking
to the general population.
No, I'm talking...
If it's just for me,
maybe.
I'm gonna let him water.
I'm gonna...
I'm gonna...
I'm gonna...
I'm gonna chop.
For the second one,
we'll just hang it.
Because it's catfart.
Well, respect.
I hope it's that.
We hang with T. He's still don't know what's in the bar. Here's another one, Devin. I'm not studying, respect. Alvin said, we hate when teams
settle us in the bar.
Here's another one, Devin. I'm not studying, bro.
I don't have...
My house ain't that big.
All right.
I mean, it's bigger than 4,200, but it ain't.
Clearly.
I can't even move around in 4,200.
You don't got no kids.
You know what I bought my first house in? You can hear people in 4200? He don't got no kids. You know what I bought my first house,
do you? You can hear people in your house?
That's what we done.
That's crazy.
That's what he said, Mike. He did say that.
I forgot.
I can hear people now. That's what I said.
That's what I can hear people now.
That nigga for sure don't live in a
4,000 square foot home
alright
alright
my bad
my bad
y'all see how they do
my bad
I can't even talk
me and Mike was talking about
some real estate
sorry
my bad

John Moran got fined

I love John Moran.
Made for This Mountain is a podcast that exists to empower listeners
to rise above their struggles, break free from the chains of trauma,
and silence the negative voices that have kept them small.
Through raw conversations, real stories, and actionable guidance,
you can learn to face the mountain that is in front of you.
You will never be able to change or grow through the thing that you refuse to identify. The thing
that you refuse to say, hey, this is my mountain. This is the struggle. This is the thing that's in
front of me. You can't make that mountain move without actually diving into that.
May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to conquer the things that once felt impossible
and step boldly into the best version of yourself to awaken the unstoppable strength that's inside of us all.
So tune into the podcast, focus on your emotional well-being, and climb your personal mountain.
Because it's impossible for you to be the most authentic you.
It's impossible for you to love you fully if all you're doing is living to please people.
Your mountain is that. Listen to Made for This Mountain on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I know a lot of cops, and they get asked all the time, have you ever had to shoot your gun?
Sometimes the answer is yes.
But there's a company dedicated to a future where the answer will always be no.
Across the country, cops called this taser the revolution.
But not everyone was convinced it was that simple.
Cops believed everything that taser told them.

I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on good company,
the podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next.
In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation
that's anything but ordinary. We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning
so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel
seen. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that there's so many stories out there. And if you can
find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content, the term that we
always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media,
marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide. And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space
and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets.

You shouldn't have got fired, bro. bro yeah you should i mean i don't think you should get fine for the celebration everybody do crazy celebration it's just to the point where like
i heard lou will say like he's taking on a villain role
and the thing we loved about john moran is that everybody loved john moran
yeah he was the people.
Him and Edwards was, like,
the people's champs for a while.
Right.
And they both kind of taking that villain role
of making the NBA kind of weak.
You know what I mean?
Like, they was our guys we celebrated.
I have a real question.
Go ahead.
As NBA players,
are y'all, like,
not allowed to be endorsed by certain things?
I mean, it used to be, like certain things I mean it used to be like
if Glock came to John
was like
ah yeah he probably
couldn't do that
there's no way he could
have an NRA sponsorship
in the NBA
nah that's crazy
this nigga want a job
around to be sponsored
by Glock
I'm just saying
if he was sponsored
by Glock
that'd be hard
don't get suspended
for doing this
but go to a convention
to hold him
listen
Nike paid all
of Jordan's funds.
You know what I'm saying? I mean, I respect
that. I'll tell you right now, if the NRA got
involved in that, first of all, he probably wouldn't even want
to be a part of that, because that's a totally different world.
Listen, I was just asking a question.
That's all.
I ain't do what you want to do.
You better than me. You got more money
than me. You lit.
I'm just saying, as far as like a brand,
like Lil' Kiz, look up to John Morant.
He was everybody's favorite player.
He was our favorite player.
Shit, I tell you, he was the people's champ.
Same thing with Anthony Edwards.
They the people's champ.
I think they off the court shit just got to kind of be smooth.
Calm down a little, yeah.
All right, my next take.
Nerf guns.
They signing. So you want them to have a my next take Nerf guns they signing so you want them
to have a job
at Nerf PE
it work
he can't get a Nerf PE
but I don't think
I think he need to
stay away from the guns
yeah
cause I mean
you outgrow Nerf guns
every nigga that
shot somebody in the face
had a Nerf gun
growing up
for Christmas
yeah it lead to something
Nerf being the gateway
drug to murder is crazy.
Isn't it a little weed?
Just saying.
Shoot or shoot, bro.
I'm just saying.
Like, I love Ja.
And like, you know what I mean?
For him to hit a game winner, you know what I mean?
Iso buddy hit the game winner.
Had a pigeon on me.
We couldn't even really celebrate it because everybody was talking about
he just shot another gun.
Like, he did the fake gun.
You know what I mean?
That's true.
And it's like, damn, you
did something great. You're a great player,
but it's being highlighted that you do
this shit. Back in the day, you
wasn't doing that. It was more like you was dancing,
doing a gritty and all that shit.
It was more celebrated.
To me, if you want to shoot the gun,
shoot the gun. I don't care. I don't bother me none.
I just know that a lot of people
look up to him with his fans. You know what I mean? For me, just don't fuck up I don't bother me none. But I just know that a lot of people look up to him with his fans.
You know what I mean?
And for me, just don't fuck up your money, man.
Like, if that's the one thing they say don't do, obviously they shouldn't tell you that.
But given the track record behind it, bro, it ain't worth it.
It ain't good.
And also, you was killing.
Obviously, you still good.
But what's going on with the team right now?
They done fired the head coach.
Yo, featured in Maroon Jeopardy with a franchise.
This ain't the time to be having that back and forth.
We've seen with the league. we're not going to say league,
we've seen how people's opinion has changed with some of our favorite players.
I don't want that to happen to Josh.
Not me either.
And you know they're going to try to, like, they're going to try to Iverson him.
Like, when we love Iverson, everybody love Iverson,
they start trying to, like, just pinpoint bad shit on him.
So, you know, he got scrutinized for it.
Like, ain't no way Allen Iverson only played what, 12, 13 years?
Come on, bro.
Yeah, that's true.
Like, they started pinpointing
stuff that we ain't like about him.
Like, the media did.
That's what they gonna do
to John Moran.
Already, he like,
kind of falling out of graces
with people.
Like, you know,
people starting to take him
out of the top 10 point guard.
You know what I mean?
Niggas don't even talk about him.
And it's like,
are y'all crazy?
Because this shit
overshadow his game right now.
And he's one of the best players, not point guard, best players in the NBA.
But we can't talk about it because of all this stuff.
And it ain't even really nothing because I see 25 other players do this and all.
Basin Daniels just did it.
But he got a different light, too.
Facts.
He got a different light.
So I understand.
And I think he know bro
like he know we ain't
hating or saying nothing bad
he know
he just gotta outgrow
that shit
it's alright for him
to have a little relapse
I fuck with him
cause he human
and if he really going
through trying to get
some help
I think he'll be cool
in a couple years
hopefully he just don't
do nothing to where
it's too late
and he like BJ said
and I just don't want
him to Irish in his bag
yeah that's what I'm
saying bro
like you talented bro I don't want nobody ever putting over some money on your name I just don't want him to Irish me, bro. Yeah, that's what I'm saying, bro. Like, you talented, bro.
I don't want nobody
ever putting over
some money on your name
because it ain't got nothing to do
with how you play basketball.
Oh, for sure.
Like, even with the AE shit,
yeah, you know what I'm saying?
He having stuff off the court,
but AE just go dunk on niggas.
And he might say something
in an interview,
but also,
he ain't on social media much.
Ever since what happened,
what happened?
You don't see AE on social media
unless it's an ad promo.
Ja, that shit happen.
Ja this, Ja that.
It's like, bro, don't attack Nazis people, bro. There's an ad promo jaw that shit happen jaw this jaw that it's like bro don't don't antagonize
these people bro
there's a lot of people
out here who got
decisions they can make
about you that can
fuck you up for no reason bro
you're a legend for that
payoff though
I ain't gonna lie
that baby innocent bro
I don't be the first
nigga to say it bro
I don't know about that shit
I do
yeah
you paying that girl
off for 18 years,
but that baby innocent, bro.
Take care of that baby.
That baby didn't ask
to be here,
but for sure.
I don't know if that's facts, though.
What?
I don't know if that really happened.
Well,
I'm saying if you did,
that's fire.
But still,
take care of that baby,
though, bro.
Yeah, I don't know
the facts behind that,
but if you be high-ledged with it,
I mean,
respect,
but yeah.
I don't give a damn.
I would do that.
That motherfucker gave you that option, though,
to pay it off for 18 years?
Yeah.
While I'm making all the bread I can,
I would pay.
Yeah, I'd have been doing it.
You know what's crazy?
And not to joke about the situation,
but Mike's most hated thing on Earth,
somebody was just like,
damn, can I put it on afterpay?
I started crying.
I said, Mike Harris was saying
the Afterpay option.
Nah, for real.
We about to get Afterpay deals. Shout out to Afterpay.
I just listened to this weekend. We tapped in, baby.
You got $1,800. What is Afterpay?
There's some shit you can do in four.
We argue with Mike about it all the time.
There's shit you can do in four installments.
I don't think we should talk down on Afterpay.
It's a great... No, Afterpay is amazing. No, what is Afterpay though? Afterpay is basically you can, certain things you can get, you can do in four installments. I don't think we should talk down on Afterpay. It's a great... Nah. Afterpay is amazing.
No, what is Afterpay though?
Afterpay is basically
you can,
certain things you can get,
you can break it down
to payments and say,
like, you want to get
something from the store.
If it's Afterpay ready,
you can break it down
to four payments
or if you got...
Oh, like, no way.
When you can't afford your shoes
but you can get it now.
But you can get a bunch of shoes.
Wow.
So I'm going to go
borrow $200
to buy this thing
that I can't currently afford
so I can hopefully pay it back.
They green.
That's the smartest thing.
Who?
We need to talk to them.
They smart.
Yeah.
I mean, I love after pay for people.
I want to do after pay.
I love after pay for people.
How do I be a part?
How can we start after?
There's a bunch of different services.
520.
Pay 520.
We'll get you this.
Credit Karma.
There's not Credit Karma. Klarna. Klarna different services. 520. Pay 520. We'll get you this. Credit Karma. There's not Credit Karma.
Klarna.
Klarna.
Yeah.
Afterpay.
I think Chime, I believe, does it as well.
I don't know about the Chime.
It's a whole bunch of people.
You a scammer.
You got the Chime.
No, you're not.
Chime is a great.
I thought Chime was a niggas in a joint.
No, Chime is for the average American that needs.
Oh, yeah.
I seen.
I saw the Chime.
Okay, yeah.
I thought you was talking about that shit. Me too. Yeah. I seen the Chom. Oh, the Chom card. Okay, yeah. I thought you was talking about the other shit. Me too.
Shout out to my homies on J-Pay.
No, shout out to... Exactly.
Shout out to Chom, though. We've been talking about two total different things.
I've seen a Chom ad
before. I never knew
a Chom. I think when you, like you said,
if you're using it responsibly, which most people do
who use that stuff, it's very beneficial because
you can use it for damn near anything.
So if you can use it
to help better your life
and it help you get to pay that,
I'll fuck with it.
Because going to get a payday loan
will fuck your shit up.
If you pay this shit on time
before payments,
ain't no penalties,
ain't no extra fees.
Oh, damn, that's great.
Yeah.
Now, don't pay no time.
This really sound like an ad
we did for After Pay.
And this is honestly not an ad.
I'm an advocate.
They just got some free shit
for whatever.
I mean, I ain't mad at it.
I'm just saying
the reason why I wouldn't
really do it is because
bro, I'm going to
probably forget, bro.
That's what I'm saying.
Like, do they give you updates?
No, your card is
we're going to get off
the subject
and then they'll forget.
But your debit card is inserted.
Oh, wow.
They're going to get their bread.
But they're not asking you
to call them next Friday
and pay.
They're saying, no,
it's coming out to a count next Friday.
Oh, it's green. I ain't even got to worry about it. It're not asking you to call them next Friday and pay. They're saying, no, it's coming out to a cow next Friday.
It's green. I ain't even got to worry about it.
It's already up. Well, I need one for the grocery store. As much as I spend,
I'm about four, four, five.
That's why you need
4,200 or more, bro. You got seven kids.
You can put the 4,200 on after pay for a shoe.
Hey, man, stop speaking of my family.
He puts up a kid's nose.
You know, I call him.
See, I was going to turn this into a show, but I'm a cheat.
See, I went to his house, bro.
I went to his house, bro.
He had six TV, six rooms.

It was a TV. When you walk in the dining room. You was my old house. When you walk in, you had a TV room. It was a TV. When you walk
in the dining room, you had a TV.

They said we can't use Mook.
No.
Mook is a part of the team.
Yeah, he 520 in the morning, bro.

You know how they get out of pocket.
Well, that's cool because that's going to be your matchup.
I mean, they got all hoopers up.
Yeah, they got.
They got Keem, Moran.
We got to play like
Gil and them.
Yeah,

Roy and Maul

Gil.
We can play Gil.
Yeah,

Gil can't move no more,
so we can play Gil.

Rashad McCann's too big,
bro.
Nah,
Rashad's still getting toyed,
bro.
Yeah,
bro.
He look like a pro wrestler
for real,
bro.
He do, but I still think he'd get a bucket, bro.
Yeah, nah, but I'm saying he going.
He'd probably kill us, bro.
I ain't going.
That nigga is.
He's like 245, bro.
They was just hooping.
I just seen Nick Young hooping against Julian Newman, though.
Oh, for real?
They was running threes or something with him.
Oh, the creator thing.
Yeah, yeah.
I was supposed to go to that.
But he tried to go to Dreamville.
Oh, for real? Mm-hmm. Hey, man creator thing. Yeah. I was supposed to go to that, but we tried to go to Dreamville. Oh, for real?
Hey, man,
Julian Newman got there
and said,
I'll be Steph Curry
when one nigga was just like,
hey, bro,
shut that shit up.
Yeah, I'm tired of talking about him.
Yeah.
Respect.
Respect.
Keep balling, King.
What's the tournament
where they be wearing
all the crazy colored jerseys?
What?
Oh, they be at PAC.
They be wearing,
it's the AU tournament,
so they be wearing all the weird colored camo jerseys. What? Oh, they be at PAC. They be wearing, it's the AU tournament, so they be wearing
all the weird color camo jerseys.
Oh, he talking about
that camp.
Yeah, I can't think of that name.
Something TV.
Mish TV.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mish TV.
We talking about all 520 team.
He is definitely the partner there
because he has the most elite mixtapes
of him driven for no reason
in them jerseys, bro.
Nah, for sure.
Yeah, him and,
they had a dude that used to be good with the Arizona...
Was supposed to go to Arizona State.
He was a big guard.
He was supposed to be good.
Oh, yeah, I know exactly who you're talking about.
He was all over this hill.
Damn.
Kyrie had a little...
Yeah, Kyrie.
He went to...
Kyrie Walker.
Kyrie Walker.
Yeah, Kyrie Walker.
Amari Bailey used to play in that shit, too.
Yeah, them jerseys.
Anytime you see them jerseys on your timeline,
it's going to be straight bull.
Yeah, you just TV. Shout him out. Man, them jerseys. Anytime you see them jerseys on your timeline, it's going to be straight bull. Yeah, UGTV.
Shout them out.
Man, UConn getting
the national championship.
Crazy, man.
Yeah.
It was definitely
a belt-to-ass situation and shit,
but Paige Becker's...
For sure.
Shout out to her, man.
Submit to herself.
I know we talk about Juju
going through a crazy injury
with the ACL,
but Paige went through
two injuries.
Now she's back.
National champ.
Top three scoring to UConn.
That's fire, man.
Are we going to go in depth more about this in the morning or are we here?
I was just showing love.
We're going to talk more in the morning.
But I just think the women's Final Four concluded.
Obviously, we got the men's.
We'll talk about it more in the morning.
But so far, you were right, man.
We got a Houston, Florida.
I told you what the vibes was.
I know this, bro.
I don't really miss too often.
But I wanted to say something.
This is the first year that I can remember that the men's Final Four has been better than the women's.
That is a fact.
And I was getting to that point, too.
Because I was like, the women's Final Four, obviously, you know what I'm saying?
It took place, but it was kind of a built-ass situation.
And it lacked star power.
Like, when Juju got hurt, it was only Paige that really had the star power.
Yeah.
It kind of lacked star power.
But I told y'all how, this is not me hating or anything,
I told y'all how it would go with women's basketball.
Like when Kaylin Clark left, you see the drop off of college, right?
Juju still had it going, but she's not,
she's better than Kaylin to me as a basketball player, but her love.
She hasn't polarized me yet as Kaitlyn was.
So, even if she would have made the finals,
I don't think it would have been that big, as big.
Like, maybe her against Paige would have had some –
That would have been fire, bro.
It would have been a good –
Kaitlyn also had Angel, too.
Yeah, for sure.
Angel helped out a lot.
Yeah, but she was fire.
It was also – they were a little school.
Like, they were like the Davidson.
Obviously, Iowa was a big time school.
We know what you're saying.
Yeah, it was a little school compared to UConn.
Nah, for LSU.
Yeah, South Carolina, these powerhouses.
And she had this little Iowa team going against these powerhouses.
So, people were rooting for her, obviously.
Yeah.
That's the same thing I told you, like, the drop-off.
And now, if she has to perform a year, this year she has to play well.
But if she don't play well or if she just average,
I think the drop-off will happen again.
I know.
I brought it up because we talk about the portal all the time and joking.
But I wonder if that's going to have a crazy effect on women's basketball too.
We talked about it at the start.
So, we look at the Notre Dame situation,
one of their best players for going in on the W transfer. Like, it's going to affect the women effect on women's basketball, too. We talked about it at the start. So, we look at the Notre Dame situation, one of their best players for going in
on the W transfer.
Like, it's going to affect
the women's side for sure now.
Look at Haley Bentley.
She went to three
different schools,
but listen,
she had a tough time
in LSU,
but she went to TCU
and got her shit off.
Yeah, she's a super.
So, now her draft stock is up.
It's okay for women's basketball.
You can say, to me,
if you a woman
in college,
and you 27,
keep hoping if you getting a bread in college, you 27, keep hoping
if you getting a bread.
Yeah,
because you got to still
be a human being
and live when you leave
the college campus.
So,
and I hope they get more money.
Obviously,
that's the goal for the W.
I want everybody
to get paid more.
It ain't my money.
So I hope y'all can,
if y'all can get
50 million a year,
shout out to y'all.
For sure.
Yeah,
the TV deal is going up
next year for sure.
but my whole point
is about the W
because I remember
we had a debate
some months ago.
We was talking about
Kaitlyn Clark
and I was like,
yo, it's going,
the stardom,
the fandom is going to
wind down
when she gets to the W
and then she had
a cracking issue
and now they on,
but they got like
41 TV games
out of 43
or something like that
and it's like,
okay, I get it,
but if she doesn't perform at a super high level next year,
it's kind of like, you know what I mean?
I see what you're saying, though, bro.
But she's so dynamic, bro.
Oh, she fire.
I don't.
You ain't saying she's sad.
But I'm saying I just don't see her not having 30,
40-point games every once in a while.
No, and she is.
But the excitement about it is kind of like it's already kind of down.
Like, we excited about the W.
They're more in the news right now saying they might hold out or whatever for the money or whatever.
But people excited about the upcoming season.
But not really about Kaitlyn Clark.
I don't know about you, bro.
I ain't never seen that many t-shirts with no no i'm
not our city is but i'm saying like when they're out of season we don't talk about kaitlyn clark
because she's not a person that's on tv yeah she don't she don't do anything outside of that she
just want to hoop so like you said juju was more polarizing because she do social media she's out
active she go to games she do all this stuff but we don we don't see Kaylin Clark at all until it's time to play basketball.
And if she's the person that's kind of like, I'm not going to say saving the league, but
if she's one of the faces of the league who's bringing more, you know, people to the game.
If you don't see her when they out for seven months, they only play with three months.
Yeah.
Three or four.
Yep.
So when she missing for seven, it ain't, it ain't whole.
Like you don't see her
nowhere.
She got a lot of weight
on her shoulders, bro.
And I'll say this.
She is saving the league.
Yeah.
Just to be fair,
I know you don't want to say it.
I'll say it.
She is saving the league.
Yeah, from coach buses
to airplane tickets.
Come on, bro.
But I'm saying, like,
you just got to do more
on the offseason
for us to, like,
appreciate it.
Because right now,
her missing out of college basketball,
the women's game, I didn't even know they played yesterday.
I didn't even know they played today.
Yeah.
And I think that's a travesty.
There's no way a national champion should be playing 3 o'clock.
Yeah, we didn't.
That's crazy, bro. I didn't even know.
Yeah, that is.
Especially how great the women's basketball has been,
especially their Final Fours, the last three to four years in particular,
has outshone the men's by far.
Because the men's Final Four,
that was crazy.
Boys was late to the club
because we had to see that.
That Duke-Houston game,
bro, crazy.
Yeah, in fact.
She might have to enter
that one-on-one shit.
Yeah, she might have to play
in that, in the rivalry.
Yeah, in the rivalry.
Yeah, they want her to do that.
She might have to do that,
but like...
I don't know, bro.
If I'm her,
I understand what you're saying
in marketing,
because I'm like, look, y'all was just on the coach
showing y'all wristbands to get on this bus.
Now we with our iPhones putting them on the scanner.
Treat it like Dreamville, take it with the wrist.
You know what I'm saying?
So maybe she just, you know,
wants to get out of life for a little bit.
And she do, but I'm just saying as far as...
It's not her responsibility.
It's not at all.
She just supposed to come do her job. and that's what she want to do.
But I'm saying, like, everybody in the world pushed her to this part
and, like, to say the league and to do this and be the face of the league.
I'm this, I'm that.
And she just want to hoop.
That ain't even her.
Like, I just want to hoop, hang with my friends,
and come back next year and do it again.
But for them to be successful, that's the person
that has to be like the face.
We never had to worry
about LeBron not being seen
in the summer.
Yeah, she's supposed
to have her game
and Angel Reed's personality
for that lead.
For that lead, boom.
Yeah, not saying
she got to do it.
I'm just saying
for her to be visible
to the world.
Yeah, like even like Sabrina
be at the McDonald's game.
Yeah.
She's here. Like Angel. Angel pull up the show like that. Yeah, she's at the McDonald's game. Yeah. She's here.
Like Angel.
Angel pull up to shit like that.
Yeah, she's at the Unrivaled.
She playing the Unrivaled League
and you just get to see her more.
Yeah.
And like,
Kaylin,
that's what make her special too.
You don't get to see her.
So when you do get to see her,
it's like,
damn,
I'm going to a Kaylin Clark game.
She bring back the 90s,
80s vibes for sure
of athletes.
But as far for the league,
they need,
people need to see her more
because we forget about it.
Yeah. And listen, Fever got a squad this year.
She might as well go get a chip this year.
Nah, if they do that, she gonna lose.
She go get a chip this year, it'll really
change my shit up. Because they kept the two
guard, didn't they? Yeah, Kelsey's back.
For sure, we had to keep Kelsey Mitchell.
You still got y'all big.
Most definitely. We got Leah Boston
in the future. Who's y'all
signed?
Offseason,
we had some crazy pickups.
I,
fuck.
I didn't mean to put you on the spot there,
bro.
That's what I'm saying.
I know,
I know offhand,
I'm fucking kidding.
I'm not even.
Dewana Bonner's cold.
She just came to the city for show.
I'm just saying,
see how like the world
don't just talk about that.
Yeah.
Like.
But that's why I be telling people,
like,
we,
we just,
I ain't gonna,
I'm not trying to.
Natasha Howard pulled up.
OG Betts,
she's size as hell.
We big now,
so people just see us
like talking shit,
but we really keep
women's basketball
alive in our culture.
We're gonna turn it.
That's what I'm saying.
Notre Dame legend.
It don't be no,
hey, we really be
showing love.
Like, DJ is for sure
tapped into that shit.
For sure.
He's way more tapped into me.
See, you know, I call college stuff from the Aces?
Because I forget once
college basketball
started. You were big on college, women's college
basketball. For sure. I can keep up with that because
I can see it's showing more.
Like the WNBA is three
months. Yeah. And they play
so many games so quick.
And it ain't that many teams in the league.
And if your team not good, what am I watching for? You know what I mean? You kind of lose track. True. And it ain't that many teams in the league. And if your team not good,
what am I watching for?
You know what I mean?
You kind of lose track.
Yeah.
We don't watch the Wizards.
So we definitely not about
to watch the worst team in the W.
That's disrespect.
Yeah, facts.
But speaking of
the transfer portal,
shout out to Master P.
Yeah, man.
What'd he do?
Signed, I guess.
He might be the oldest
in the transfer portal.
I forgot his name.
Jamal Gibson.
Jamal Gibson?
Jamal Gibson.
Yeah.
That's him right there?
Yes, sir.
Oh, damn.
Trench baby for sure.
Yeah, where he from?
Florida?
Florida.
Okay.
Oh, God, that makes sense then.
Yeah.
He in buckets,
but you know,
he 27, bro,
so this is...
Ah, damn.
How many years
eligibility he got left? Four? Two more. Oh, two more? Oh, he 27, bro. So this is... Ah, damn. How many years eligibility he got left?
Four?
Two more.
Oh, two more?
Oh, he went JUCA?
No.
He has no prior basketball experience.
Ain't no way in hell.
Yeah.
He dropped out.
Became a tattoo artist.
He was a tattoo artist
before this.
Oh, that's why
he got all them damn tattoos.
Okay.
But he's 6'8".
This is his natural ability.
He said he wanted to go back to school.
When he went back to school,
it was a walk-on.
And he just killed.
He probably called.
But he's 27.
His freshman year,
he averaged 21 and 15.
Damn.
And the draw.
Yeah.
21 and 15?
Yeah, bro.
Damn, he raw.
So, P went to go find him.
So, that's what I'm saying.
He didn't have to go far.
If he,
right,
but I'm saying though,
if he gets him to the league,
bro,
that is going to turn that
university up.
He going to kill next year
at the University of New Orleans.
It's going to be crazy.
He went to the Southern University
of New Orleans.
Now he's going to the
university.
Yeah,
that's hard.
After he kill next year,
he will be at Auburn University. So I brought him up to say, I'm okay with that, that's hard. After he killed next year, he would be at Auburn University.
So I brought him up
to say,
I'm okay with that
because that is rare.
Oh,
now he fucked with the board.
No,
no,
no,
listen,
he wasn't somebody
from 18
and went on
and kept playing.
Yeah,
somebody came and found him
like,
you got a hoop,
I got a better opportunity,
I might got a little bag
for you.
You know what I mean?
I know you're doing your tattoos,
you fuck around,
tattoo these kids on campus,
make a little side hustle change. And come hoop. Come? I know you're doing your tattoos. You can fuck around and tattoo these kids on campus and make a little
side hustle change.
And come hoop.
Come hoop, bro.
You're averaging 21, bro.
He didn't start off
and he had
Goddamn
Oak Hill,
Mount Vernon,
Duke,
Yukon,
Syracuse,
St. John's.
Like,
this is a rare story.
Yeah.
I wonder why he started
hooping so late.
He dropped out of high school.
Oh, he dropped out of high school.
God damn,
he's about to change his man life for real. That's right. Yeah. He made money
being a tattoo artist to go back
to school. So he paid.
Now that's fire. I'm right.
His story dope. Okay. Shout
out to P then, man. I'm definitely rolling
with him. He said he was going to change lives.
So. Yeah, boy, so don't put a
real game changer for sure. That's a motherfucker.
Y'all talking about me blindside
they need a
I can't say
his story
gonna be crazy
yeah that's what I'm saying
even if he get a good
overseas deal
he gonna be like Andre
he gonna be the oldest
rookie call up ever
yeah
and for you to be averaging
that them type of numbers
is ridiculous
and you don't move for real
he done fucked up
it's a kid who was trying
to get to a high D1
that had to play him
and shit
he's like bro this nigga
is 27 bro 19 years old but that kid is out trying to get to a high D1 and had to play him and shit. He's like, bro, this nigga is 27, bro.
I am 19 years old.
But that kid is out of pocket, though, to me,
because, bro, I don't hoop.
I tap.
You sad, bro.
You sad.
I don't even do this shit.
I'm a tattoo artist, bro.
So shout out to him, man.
I just wanted to highlight you today, bro.
That's what's up.

Alright, man, before we get out of here, y'all see this new
Friday movie. It got greenlit. It's official.
Okay. Who in it? Last Friday.

Hey, I'm not the biggest Pac fan,
but check out Pac.
Fuck, though.
If y'all think he's happy,
but Anthony Mackie played him.
Pac was an actor, though.
Yeah.
And he was a better one than Anthony Mackie.
Pac was a really good actor,
but he didn't have poetic justice.
Facts.
And he was supposed to be the real baby boy.
And Pac would have gotten baby boy.
It would have been the best movie of all time.
No.
It only works if you're talking about the hate.
Because of the parody. Yeah only works because it's a parody
