One at a time. What, you say ass? I said he lives like a king out there. He does his thing. He does his thing. I'm from. One at a time. What? You say ass? I said he lives like a king out there. He does his thing. He does his thing. I'm fucking with that pit in Columbia.

A king or a slave? What? I'm on that pit in Columbia. All of a sudden you said you fucked that rabbit. Yo. That's what I'm gonna say. He said I'm fucking with that rabbit. Yo.

He was mad at me. I'm with you about the king or a slave, bastard. Which one is it? He goes too far. He knows very easy. He does his thing out there. He goes too far. You black. You white. You black. You black. You black. King or slave bastard, which one is it? He's going too far.

He knows very easy. He knows his thing, Anthony. He's going too far. You black, you might get away with it. Wait, hold up, hold up, hold up. We have a good time. That's all I got. I got a question.

Diego, Diego, tell us about the bad experience that you had. It was one. Damn. One and one? Yes. The girl with the third leg. Well, you had to say, I'm American. Wait, wait, wait. Oh, oh. The other leg. Oh, no. Diego. One and one You, I'm American, I'm American.

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. So one time, the guy we get all the yachts from out here, he bought a penthouse, Pablo's Penthouse out there. It's like 10,000 square feet. Beautiful place. So we're on the way there with one of the guys that owns the boats, me and Haz. And the Uber driver makes a wrong turn.

Because Uber's illegal, right? Yeah, no. So he went down a one-way block and we couldn't find the entrance to this penthouse because it was exclusive. It's Pablo's place.

So we're just sitting there and like two seconds later, someone just runs up to the car with a gun out pointing at all of us. Nobody move! What? You know, for like 30 seconds

I thought I was dead. I was like, they're going to rob us. We didn't know. I thought they were going to rob us or kidnap us. I had no clue. He had the gun.

He was like, fall over with a gun. So they fucking had the gun after the guy's talking to him in Spanish. Luckily, he has his day. He's understanding. Yeah, we had the shit to the biggest phrase.

I got scared. I didn't know if I was going to go to jail in fucking, in Columbia or if I was going to get killed, kidnapped. So I was like, what the fuck, what the in Colombia, or if I was going to get killed, kidnapped. So I was like, what the fuck, what the fuck? And then Haz figured that they were just pulling us over, telling the driver what was going on.

I'm dropping shit out of my pockets in the car because I'm not trying to go to jail in Colombia. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he comes to the back and he opens the door. He starts to search me and like, and all I remember saying is, Soy Americano, soy Americano! Soy Americano! And he's like, he just kind of backed up off, he looked at the guy, he's like, fix your car, you shouldn't be doing this.

He said, get out of here. And get the fuck out of here. Oh, because that drove a wrong way. He was parked, the Uber driver was parked on a one-way block, and he was just sitting there. But he wasn't dressed like police or nothing. No, the guy pulled out, it was a rope with a business card when he said he was a cop I'm leaving the country. No, no, no. There was no hookers. Miami. Went for a birthday party.

Just cocaine. Okay. No. You did all that just to get cocaine. So what's going to happen? Yeah, right. We'll be driving. I want the cocaine.

Each episode, I'll be diving into some of the lesser-known histories of the West. I'll then be joined in conversation by guests such as Western historian Dr. Randall Williams and best-selling author and meat-eater founder Stephen Ranella. I'll correct my kids now and then where they'll say when cave people were here and I'll say it seems like the ice age people that were here didn't have a real affinity for caves. So join me starting Tuesday, May 6th where we'll delve into stories of the West and come to understand how it helps inform the ways in which we experience the region today. Listen to The American West with Dan Flores on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And it's going to take us to heal us.

We had champagne. Andre and Ronnie and I ain't drinking now. We was drinking champagne. I think we told him, like, yo, bring a bottle of champagne. I hit up with some Andre. And said he came through with the Andre. I said, oh, I didn't know you said champagne. He said, this is good stuff.

He said, this is some good stuff. I said champagne. Yo, yo, yo. You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? Oh, I didn't know you said shit. He said this is good stuff. He said this is some good stuff. And I said, yo, come on. He said, I got you a $40 game.

He said, yo, and you know what he said? For $14? You know this ain't good. He said, why would I spend $80 on that? And I could get fined for $14. But what are you saying to that? So I'll be like, the W got this. I'm like, what the fuck are those cans?

The W got that. And then you're not happy. No, they do, though. They do. They do got that. That's not true. That's what they call the champagne. That's not true.

That's not true. No, they do. They do. Now, Andre, I do admit, I do admit, some hotels, other than the St. Regis, other than the St. Regis, some hotels, when they make them other than the St. Regis, other than the St. Regis, some hotels, when they make them other than the St. Regis, some hotels, I do admit this, I wouldn't be able to drink a mimosa without a pineapple or orange taste

because some do use some cheap champagne. So I'm disagreeing with you, Andre. But I have been to a hotel one time and I've looked and I'm like, oh, motherfucker. That's not Moet at all. So you got to tell them if you want it. I want Moet. I want Moet. I hate mimosas for the fact that they always give you the cheap champagne. But you know, you know, a great champagne is just Chandon.

Because I'm going to tell you what it is. you know a great champagne is just Chandon. Because, yeah. No, because I'm going to tell you what it is. I'm going to tell you what it is because those are considered breakfast drinks. And then breakfast drinks, breakfast drinks

is not supposed to be expensive. Like, if you ever order Bloody Mary, you also have to specify the vodka. You have to say, yo, listen, do you have Ciroc?

You know what I mean? Do you have, you know, nothing else matters. But yo, listen, do you have Ciroc? You know what I mean? Do you have, you know, nothing else, Matt. But, you know, do you have that? And you got to specify. Otherwise,

they'll give you a Smirnoff. And then you'll have a, your morning drink and say you have a headache is because you think you're drinking cheap shit. That's the reason why you got a headache.

Yeah, you're drinking. Yes. I broke that down for y'all. I broke that down. You getall. I broke that down. You get a headache right away. Before you leave brunch, you're going to have a headache. If you're on vacation,

you're going to enjoy yourself up until nighttime. That's all in your mind. That's all in your mind. That's all in your mind. King of the bottom shelf. King of the bottom shelf. That's all in your mind.

That's all in your mind. That's all in your mind. I've been with Nori when he gave me the good gold bottle I've been with Nori I've been with Nori When he gave me The good gold bottle And I've been with him When he

Said I don't want this Bel-Air You take it And it tastes the same to me Now we fuck Ross We fuck Bel-Air We ain't got shit on Bel-Air

We fuck with Ross And we fuck with the guy who owned, I forgot his name, the other owner. It's good. It's just, it's an acquired taste.

It's like, when I'm not into sugars, I have to go Ace. You know what I'm saying? Because it's not full of sugar. You got probably the same amount of sugar, but to me,

my system, it seems like, you know what I mean? It's like a Kool-Aid. And I've always seen when we go out, you always like the plain Moet. Yeah, I like this. That's that old school.

But why do you like the white star plain? Why? Because. Not that tunnel. To tell you the truth, I feel like it can still have, but when I'm drinking like this, vodka, and then no sugars, This is the least amount of sugars. But if you get into a rosé or all that, it's super sugary. Yeah.

I'm going to say something. Oh, man. That's my man, Mike Booth. Most of us who love rosé, if you love rosé, you grew up on cherry Kool-Aid. It's just a fucking known fact. It's just cherries. Rosé is just cherry fucking Kool-Aid.

Who came with us? We went to Opus. That shit was hard. We went to Opus. Oh, those pictures. Yeah, we went to... You packed a bottle yet? I got my bottle.

I've been got my sugar. Did you drink one yet? Nah, because I'm trying to steal Juvenile Sugar. So, like, March 15th, I'll be a mom. Since you a drink champ,'re a top five drinker. Probably top two. Top two or you not two? What's your favorite drink?

Out of everything. Champagne, vodka, wine, whiskey. What's your favorite drink? Ecstasy. I don't think he'll ever ask. That was the best time. We're going to he'll ever ask. Hold on, bud. That was the best time.

We're going to get there. We're going to get there. That was literally not the best time. Without saying the brand, just the spirit. I would say wine. Okay. I like wine more. No, he definitely do.

I like white wine. He could go the whole night. I like white wine. He could go the whole night. What's the shit he love, the wine? Margarita. Santa Margarita. Pinot Grigio.

Pinot Grigio, Santa Margarita. Margarita. It's not Margarita. Santa Margarita. And we heard they were like racist. And Santa Margarita. They racist? We heard. Yeah.

Shit. Santa Margarita. Who made Santa Margarita? Yeah. Man, you still drink the shit. Not racist. I heard they just wanted to just deal with us.

They don't want to just get into the business. They don't want to promote to anybody, though. So it's not just black people and Latin. That's from Spain? From Spain?

You bet. That's from Spain? Hold up. No. Well, I don't know where it's from now. That should be bottled right here.

That's the difference when you look at bottles. A lot of the times that's what the guy from difference when you look at bottles. A lot of the times, that's what the guy from Napa Valley was telling us. A lot of times, they'll send just the liquid and they'll send it to wherever and then they'll say it's bottled. It's still from where it's from.

If the wine is from Napa Valley, it could be bottled in San Antonio. If the wine is from Paris, it could be bottled in San Antonio. You know what I'm saying? If the wine is from Paris, it could be bottled. And certain people might look at it like if you want a Bordeaux,

what is it called? Bordeaux? Bordeaux. You want a Bordeaux. Most people want a Bordeaux that's from Bordeaux. They don't want it to be shipped

from France to such and such. But then there's people who will get it and that's the reason why you see that some bottles are more expensive and some bottles are at least expensive because it's just

that. If you get a bottle of Bordeaux from Bordeaux but you could get a bottle of Bordeaux from Spain. You could get a bottle of Bordeaux from what you call it because... No, no, no. It's considered because they sit in the liquid but it's being bottled somewhere else. You know what I'm saying?

By it moving around and whatever, it's different. Sometimes it adds on to the price, and sometimes it takes away from the price because the person just really wants to have that experience. If you have a Napa Valley wine, and you look at it, and it says bottled in France, you're going to be like, what the fuck? Why the fuck did they take it from Napa Valley and send it to France and then send it back to me? That process could have ruined the wine. So that's why that particular bottle of wine,

I'm sorry, I'm being like a fucking sommelier. No, you get educated on drink champ too. We get educated too. So that particular bottle of wine, depending on how it went or where it went to, it could be priced up or it could be priced down. So, yeah, that's the reason why.

I don't know the champagne you drank before. Which was your favorite? Ace of Spades. How's that? They got Ace of Spades, the pink bottle. Oh, this. He liked that one. We like the rose. And close number two is the shit I drink at Mr. Charles.

I'm not even going to try to pronounce it. The shit I drink? Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, oh, oh. No, Perrier. Perrier eat something. Perrier, yeah. Perrier eat something.

Perrier and LeBron. Perrier and LeBron. What I love about them. That was a little bitter. What I love about that, I love the rosé version of that. What I love about them is they really a little bitter. What I love about that, I love the rosé version of that. But what I love about them is they really don't promote at all.

You just got to know. It's more expensive than Moet too in the store. Moet like $65, $70, that shit like $89, $90. The liquor store too is more expensive. So Boof, you've been around for years. You don't get to ask questions here, man. What are you doing?

What are you doing? What are you doing? I want to ask you. I want to ask you. I want to ask you. I want to ask you. So we've been around 20 plus years. Tell me a crazy story on tour without incriminating anybody. Damn.

What? A crazy night. It could be a fight. It could be something a fan do. Whatever. I'll tell you one of my crazy stories and I'll pass it to you. Okay, so let me get one, Papito. You tell us and you get yours.

He said FBI too? That's where Boss got it from. Maybe DMX got it from Boss. I'm just being honest. Yeah, he said FBI. I mean, you can't say it was a realist story. How about Shampoo? Shampoo's the street team guy.

No, no, that's what I'm saying. Anybody. Before you did the thing, first of all, it's straight up you've been doing. Ambassador, it's the new thing. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're making it sound like I'm just handing out flyers. Let me tell you one story.
