New Rory & MAL - Episode 119 | Jordan And Pippen Are Back!!!

Episode Date: November 15, 2022

The guys are back from their Atlanta studio, courtesy of Rockstar Energy, following another live show Sunday night. First, we learn that Rory and Mal made one fan in particular comfortable enough to c...ome out of the closet (not during the show). Then we were joined by a “horny poet” and his girlfriend and finally we were blessed by the ultimate power couple, B Simone and Moneybag Mal. DJ Drama surprised everyone during the Versuz battle to face off against the guys and to no surprise he won handily. The team’s night didn’t end after the show. Sunday also happened to be Julian’s birthday! The team celebrated at what Rory referred to as a “truck stop with stripper poles.” We promise it was still better than the London stripper experience. ‘Her Loss’ seemed to be the soundtrack of the weekend and the first week numbers reflected our sentiments. Earlier in the week, Rory joined Nas and Hitboy at the KDIII release party and somehow missed Andre 3000. Another legend Dave Chappelle returned to SNL for a moving monologue, while LeBron freestyles his way through a few more lies. In adjacent basketball news, the iconic Jordan/Pippen combo are back.

Starting point is 00:03:14 Listen, man. Atlanta might be home soon. Wow. Yeah. I'm getting there. So how you feel it? I am. And you know what's funny?
Starting point is 00:03:24 It's freezing in Atlanta now. And that was actually... You felt like home. It kind of made me. I mean, because I've always talked about like we were walking down Park Avenue today, didn't it? Like usually I'm always saying like maybe Houston or Austin or Dallas or something would probably be where I would move if I left New York. But, you know, obviously with my skin pigmentation and lack there of melanin. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:45 In need of SPF at all moments. It's not the safest place for a pale Irishman like myself to go. Atlanta now with global warming, it's fucking freezing here. Oh yeah, you can thrive down there. You can thrive. It feels like the Caucasus Mountains outside. It's like New York. work with space.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Yeah, it's like everywhere's Central Park. Atlanta is, Atlanta definitely feels like home. We had a great show last night at Center Stage. Shout out to everybody that came out to the show. Well, no, Saturday night. Sunday night, excuse me. What is today?
Starting point is 00:04:15 Yeah, fuck it, man. Today's Monday. It's okay. We had a great show last night Sunday at Center State. Shout to everybody came out. Shout out to DJ Drama. A lot of fun. Be Simone, Megan.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Shout to Sahai. Saari. everybody that came out showed us love, support. Page. Page. Just naming people
Starting point is 00:04:33 that were there now. Yeah, man. That's, you know. Ed and everybody in the green room? Who was the young lady that Karen? Karen.
Starting point is 00:04:40 Oh, she was great, man. A point of contact for the night. She gives Karen's a good name. She was a good Karen. She was a good Karen over there and the stage. Shout out of everybody that came out. We had a great time.
Starting point is 00:04:50 The audience was amazing. The couples we pulled on stage were amazing. All right. I don't know if this is going to be problematic. No, just going. It is. Whenever you ask if it's going to be problematic. Do you think Twitter owes us an apology? Twitter owes us an apology.
Starting point is 00:05:04 I like where you're going with it, even though I don't know where you're going with it. Are we allowed to ask for apologies? I don't ask for apologies. I demand them. I demand an apology to whoever out there owes me one. Do you think you get a sincere apology when you demand one? No. You never get a sincere apology. Okay, so a few weeks back, the Twitter sphere,
Starting point is 00:05:26 some of the Instagram streets had put some adjectives on our name. We know what canceling is and the lack thereof of it. I know where he's going with us. Some adjectives were thrown. I'm never mad at people trying to cancel us. Oh, yeah. But it's when you put certain words next to my name,
Starting point is 00:05:42 it does bother me a bit. Yeah. I believe we were, and for those that don't know, we did a sketch with Jay Alphonse. Shout to Jay Alphonse. Congratulations to him and his wife. They got married. I'm going to pull this card.
Starting point is 00:05:54 Y'all just weren't smart enough to get, I didn't think it was that hard to understand what we were getting at in that sketch, but it came across to a lot of idiots as homophobic. And they called us a lot of really mean names. They did. As far as our stance. They did.
Starting point is 00:06:09 They had a lot of evil things to say to us. Specifically the gay community. They said we were homophobic. They said we were insensitive assholes. Yes, out of touch. We were stupid, out of touch. All kinds of things they called us. I even feel like they called us the F word.
Starting point is 00:06:23 Oh, absolutely. I feel like those were in. in there somewhere behind those hidden, which is such a weird thing to call someone you're claiming is homophobic. Exactly. But we will have, you know, Twitter's fair, that last night we had a lovely couple
Starting point is 00:06:36 come to the meet and greet. Yes. A gentleman, oh, who's the gentleman's name? I know his partner's name is Justin. Wow, you homophobe. You don't even remember their names. No, his partner's name. You don't even look at them as people. Just content? No, his, just content.
Starting point is 00:06:54 You're just content. to me. His partner's name was Justin. I forgot the other gentleman's name, but he came up to me and Rory at the meet and greet and said, um, biracial couple too. By racial, I don't think, no. Interracial. They were inter, wait, what is, there's difference?
Starting point is 00:07:08 Look, whatever, man. They're in love. Yeah, right? We didn't get their 23 and meet charts. We don't know if they were by racial. We don't know. Interracial couple. Interracial couple.
Starting point is 00:07:15 And they, they came up to Rory myself and he told us how watching the podcast, listen to the podcast and listening to Rory and myself talk over the weeks. made him comfortable with coming out to his friends and his family about being a homosexual. And me and Rory looked at each other and was like, excuse me? Because if you sit down and read the comments and you feed it in the things, you really feel like it's a consensus that everybody feels like this about Rory myself. Oh, they're homophobes. They're this, they don't care.
Starting point is 00:07:47 And it's like, we know we're not. But sometimes you just need comments all day, not even close. But when you read these comments, you're like, damn, like, do we say things that make people feel like this. And for that gentleman and his boyfriend to come up to us last night and tell us, you know, exactly how comfortable we made him with coming out to his friends and his family, that was the all the confirmation we needed. And we're like, we're not homopholes.
Starting point is 00:08:10 You think you saw the jail Fonskitt was like, I got to call my mom. Yeah. Saw the skit and he was like, you know what? This is it. I'm coming out today. This is it. I'm not hiding anymore. So we want to thank, first of all, thank those guys for coming out.
Starting point is 00:08:23 They were great. They came on stage. kicked with us. His explanation was cool, though, because he was suggesting, you know, as most of us in the era that we grew up in, sometimes, you know, people older than us, it was a homophobic environment. Oh, absolutely. Words were thrown around. It wasn't the easiest place for someone to come out as gay.
Starting point is 00:08:43 He was saying, like, he grew up in that type of environment, knows we did and saw how comfortable we are with that community, how much we don't care. Yeah. And he was like, that shit made me feel like, if y'all are so cool with it, I think all the people around me will be cool with it because I was so scared because I grew up in that environment, they wouldn't accept me. Listen, we do know and we look back at a lot of things we used to say as younger, younger guys, younger kids. We could look back and see how if somebody amongst our crew were homosexual, that it would like, ah, it would probably be hard for them to be themselves and admit like, hey, guys, I know we crack jokes and things like that, but I'm actually gay. But, you know, as men now, knowing what we know, it's just absolutely stupid.
Starting point is 00:09:24 but for anybody to, you know, look at other people and how they love and who they love and feel some type of way about it. Love who you love. Be yourself. Be who you are. That's one thing that we stand on over here. We are who we are. We do what we want to do.
Starting point is 00:09:38 We have fun. We respect each other. We respect ourselves, most importantly. And we just, you know, live life and have fun, man. And it was just beautiful to have that couple come out last night and kick it with us and talk to us. And we had a great time. We had a great time. So shout out to that couple.
Starting point is 00:09:53 I'm sorry. I can't remember the other gentleman's name. But Justin, I do remember Justin because he was on stage and he just was everything that he said to me last night. It was funny. He had a girlfriend and then now he has a boyfriend. And then I said, oh, so you're bisexual? And he told me, no. I was never bisexual.
Starting point is 00:10:06 And I said, Justin, I can't figure out what the fuck you're saying right now, but I love you anyway. And also, just, I don't know if Julian, you took his email down or a peed or somebody. Justin, reach out to us because we want to send you guys merch back. See, we sit gay people merch. Yeah. Free. I feel like we're arguing that's our point. We can't be homophobic.
Starting point is 00:10:24 You send gay people merch. I can't be racist. I voted for Obama. So they were the first couple. For those that don't know in our live shows, we do bring couples up on stage. And we play, you know, whiteboard games, certain questions.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Our version of Never Have I Ever type shit. Yeah. And they were the first couple. And as progressive as I did feel, when they walked on stage, I feel like everything he said to us kind of just went out the window of this safe environment. Because everyone was like,
Starting point is 00:10:52 nah. Yeah. I was like, fuck. And here's the crazy part. This is not a safe environment. But here's the crazy part. We're in Atlanta. That crowd, if any crowd, should have been absolutely comfortable.
Starting point is 00:11:04 You know who said, no. It was the, never mind. He was there with his girlfriend. Yeah, exactly. The down lowers like, nah, wait. They're living their truth. Fuck them. Damn.
Starting point is 00:11:15 I wish I could. Clenching his fist underneath the same. They're out of the closet. Suppress it. The fuck is rolling. You look so happy. Oh, man, but it was a great night, man. I was nervous for both of us when they came out, though.
Starting point is 00:11:27 It was the first time with a live show, I was lightweight, nervous on how we were going to handle something. Because I was like, all right, we got to get the jokes off. And I believe in equality for real. So y'all are going to get the same jokes that everyone else has got. I'm not going to sugarcoat this because we have to tiptoe around the shit. Yeah. But there was no edit button.
Starting point is 00:11:46 No, there was not. That's where the fuck I was nervous. Live phones. Cameras were out. I didn't know how much of the Bronx was going to come out of mall. Hey man I'm comfortable with being around those guys I was nervous as fuck
Starting point is 00:11:59 Because when he said No like I had a girlfriend And Moe was like wow the fuck that work I was like shit This is gonna go off the rails People are gonna tape it But that's the beauty in it You gotta have those type of conversation
Starting point is 00:12:10 Where you just like yo How do that fuck does that work? Like I don't care I'm not mad I don't I'm not judging you But just walk me through it Well his boyfriend said to me off Mike when you were talking to Justin He's like that's how it usually starts
Starting point is 00:12:23 It's like we have to hide it so we get a girlfriend. Yeah. Damn. That's how what happens, though. And that's the thing, like, when you see guys that are, like, extremely homophobic and got to kind of look at them like, man, why are you so bothered by that, bro? Like, what's up, man? You still live in my building.
Starting point is 00:12:38 Like, I'm going to see you every day. Like, I'm not going to stop talking to you. Like, what do you mean by that? Just get that off your chest. Yeah, well, what you mean by that? What you mean, ill, when you see two men holding hands? You act like they took your pension. Like, why you're going to?
Starting point is 00:12:50 What are you so angry? What are you mean by that, bro? Why are you so upset about that? But it was a beautiful night. Another couple that came on stage was Big Ced and his girlfriend, Wendy. Yes, I like it. Big Said, the poet. Cedric Blatch.
Starting point is 00:13:04 He had an amazing poem, poetry book. Scott, what is it? Scissor and tape. Yes. Cisor and tape. Which I think had a couple entendres or meanings. Yeah, I thought it was neither here nor that. Two lesbian's banging vagues, but.
Starting point is 00:13:17 You had to make it a page 48 to find that. I was like, oh, all right, here we go. Let's just roll out all the gate. the gay couples, but he had a poem, a poetry book that he wrote, and he gave everybody from the crew a book, which was dope. And they were great, too, on stage last night as well. I was, I was blown away in London when that person, that gentleman had said that he named his son after me.
Starting point is 00:13:39 And I was like, can't be true. You just liked it. He's like, no, you. I'm like, oh, kid, no future. And he's a red. And he's a red. I don't know what's weirder, though. Some, I think a guy saying Rory and Mall are the reason that I was comfortable
Starting point is 00:13:52 to come out of the closet. It's way crazier than someone named their son after me. I just want to know what moment, what was the moment that made him like... He told us it was... It was just to talk about us being like, yo, why are people so weirded out by gay couples? Oh, so it was an actual, okay. Yeah, and I just think overall that he grew up around people... No, it wasn't a recap of Rosewood.
Starting point is 00:14:12 No, absolutely not. Julian is fucking sick. No, that wasn't the moment where he was like... He heard that. God damn it, if they went to the box, I'm coming out. No, that wasn't anything. Is that what's going on? in the straight streets yet.
Starting point is 00:14:23 I'm gonna do this gay thing, bro. I can't do that. I can't do the boxing. Kitty cat is not my speed. Yeah, no. Put a milk all over yourself, yuck. Wait enough, was there any other highlights? It was just a good show.
Starting point is 00:14:36 Well, the B- Simone. Oh, B-Simon and Megan came out. Your energy in the green room was a little different. Yeah, Mals phony. We have to bring you to center stage here, no pun intended. You gotta come to the podium. Me and Megan was mad. You was giving it up in the green room.
Starting point is 00:14:52 All are trying to make me and my friend a couple, and we are friends. We are just friends. That's okay, more. I have friends, too. We can just be friends. Why can't we just be friends? Okay. Well, for those that weren't at the show, we played truth or dare, because sometimes it's fun to play kid games when you're an adult.
Starting point is 00:15:10 And Megan dared who side of the kid games, or, you know, well, out of context. We bring seventh heaven back as adults. Seven. I'm waiting for that one to come back. Seven minutes of seven minutes. It was. Seven. Seven.
Starting point is 00:15:23 It was. It was. You know, seven minutes of heaven was a weird game because seven minutes that's a long time. Making out for seven minutes
Starting point is 00:15:31 is fucking crazy. In a closet? We did six shit as kids, man. Why we just turned the TV on? It's a TV right here. Like, we don't have to sit in a closet
Starting point is 00:15:42 and just look at each other and start kissing. We got to bring it. Spin the bottle back. Yeah, let's bring all the games back as adults, Rory. But we played Truther Dair
Starting point is 00:15:48 and Megan had Dared Mall. And he said Dare, with his chest. Like he was down for whatever. Damn. And Meg was like, all right, post a picture of B Simone
Starting point is 00:15:58 on your IG with the caption of what you was giving up in the green room. And while was like, yo, I got mad plans for B. She's my rib. 2023 is ours.
Starting point is 00:16:07 He's vegan. Howard, yeah, I thought it was insane that somebody would call a woman at Brits. But see, Eddie, that's my thing.
Starting point is 00:16:13 I'm clearly joking and now they want to bring it on stage. Like, nah, post like, bro, those were jokes, man.
Starting point is 00:16:18 It was weird. He said out loud hashtag power couple. I was like, I don't say the past. I was walking around the green room, hashtag power couple. I was like, that's weird. I said hashtag power couple. Just walking around the green room.
Starting point is 00:16:33 Hashtag. Us against them. Well, everyone was like talking. He was running around the green room like puff. Like I was inspired. It was crazy. We were all hanging out in the green room talking. Drama was there.
Starting point is 00:16:41 All the guys were talking music. And you were just in the corner on the couch. Corner cuffing. Edon, you have footage. I was everywhere but in the corner that green room last night. I don't remember. I don't remember. I don't remember.
Starting point is 00:16:51 touchy fairly. You was platonically touching her knee. Well, I was a little ashy. She had on jeans. No, I'm talking about she had a... You could not see her knee. She had a whole shirt with her arms and her back out, bro. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:17:05 So I said, oh, you look a little ashy. You have some lotion. She's like, I know I need some. Oh, you locied her back? No, I didn't load. No, Megan's lotion. Oh, my God. This is what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:17:11 I offered my friend lotion because she was ashy. And now you're asking if I lotion her back. No. B. Simone and I are just friends. I believe you gave her. shoulder massage at one point. Last night? Yes. You're like, you look so tense. You know, because she's a little nervous. B is a little nervous, even though she's a legend
Starting point is 00:17:28 and she's an icon. She still gets a lot of nervous before going on stage, and she likes to fart and throw up and things like that. So I was making sure she was okay last night. Interesting sequence. Gotcha. So you was in, when she had the runs, you were in the bathroom with her. Well, I was offering some spray, and I had baby wipes in my bag as well. So I was letting her know if she needed anything, I was the guy. You were there. Just being a great friend. Wow. being a great friend. Shout out to Crystal. They sent us some side chicks.
Starting point is 00:17:52 Yes, they did. Some tater tots. Yo, this is not an ad. That was one of the best chicken sandwiches I've had in a mealy-on-cheas. Pimento cheese? I want to know what they season that fucking bread with. Oh, you know what they season with. Culture. No. I thought you were going to go down. Side chicks. You know, Britney's box.
Starting point is 00:18:11 Just rub it on a box and throw it in that good old Britney Renner's sweat. Throwing the grease. Yeah, dip it right in Brittany Renner grease. God. But yeah, it was fun. I wish you would have taken the dare. And we could have taken that to the next level. I thought about it.
Starting point is 00:18:26 I was like, nah. And then I couldn't try to save it because Meg's married, so that would have been weird. And I feel like I just have a feeling like her dude used to play in the league. She just gives me like I date linebacker vibes. Nah, no, no, no. I love Meg. Shout out to Meg. Shout out to Be Simone, No for Sure Pot.
Starting point is 00:18:44 Thank them for coming out. I feel like somebody else came out. Drama came out. We did Atlanta versus. He smoked us in the verses, shared some takeoff moments. It was. She had some, some, some dope words, some real sentimental words about takeoff, rest and peace. But, yeah, it was only right that drama, smoked us in the virtues.
Starting point is 00:19:03 I mean, it's DJ fucking drama, man. Absolutely. We had some fans come on stage and rap out of nowhere. That was fun. Yeah. That was dope. That was great. Shout to Molly.
Starting point is 00:19:12 She bought her some juices. Yeah. I took a, I drank some of the ginger juice that she bought me last night. and I woke up and completely emptied my bowels today. So thank you for that, Marley. I mean, I-Jinger ran right through me. I like a woman with balance. She can press juice and knows all the words snuck if you buck.
Starting point is 00:19:27 Oh, yeah. You got to. Listen, culture. That's part of the coach. That's my type of girl. And then release from that ass. So that's exactly what I did this morning. I was exhausted and typically I wouldn't want right to the hotel.
Starting point is 00:19:38 But it was Julian's 30th birthday. Happy birthday, Julian. Happy birthday, Julian, man. Thank you, bro. We appreciate everything you do. 30 is a big one. So I was like, man, let's go to a strip club. but our show ended pretty late, and it was a Sunday night,
Starting point is 00:19:49 so all the good strip clubs for some reason were closed. Yeah, and we ended up in a fucking hellhole of a fucking play. No, no, no, no. We went to a truck stop that happened to have naked women. Yeah. What was that called? The pink nipple? Pink pony.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Excuse me. There was a lot of pink nipples in there. Oh, man, the pink nipples were everywhere in there, as including yours, Rory. My shirt was on. Was it? I hadn't seen a white stripper in a long time. That was weird.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Oh, you saw them all there. What was the last time you seen a bunch of white strippers? It felt like, damn, they make you? It felt like a strip club in Grand Theft Auto. Right. Oh, yeah. It felt like a strip club in the fucking movie from the 80s. Oh, and it smelled like, remember when you could smoke cigarettes and bars?
Starting point is 00:20:27 Yeah. It brought me back to when my dad, which I think someone should have stopped my father. My dad used to bring me to bars when I was like a baby. And it just reeked of Marlboro cigarettes in the paint. It just brought me back to my childhood. Yeah. Yikes. It was a good night, though.
Starting point is 00:20:43 It served its purpose. We just needed some way to go and just chill, have some drinks. and, you know, we got to see some pink nipples and pink asses. So at the pink pony. It was crazy that you had to pay to get in. It was $1.00. And then they charge you. You can only take out.
Starting point is 00:20:56 The valet was the funniest thing in the world. Oh, God. Valet literally drove your car 10 feet and was like, it had to be $100. Bro, we could have did that ourselves. I didn't know what was. He charged shorty $20 to literally take his foot off the break and then put it in park. He put it in neutral. And then we drove it out.
Starting point is 00:21:13 Yeah, Sixth's hustle. Oh, give you the key back. Let me, I can't have done. did what you just did like twice. Like, I don't need to pay you for that. And I felt like I got, got afterwards, because I went into the ATM to go pay him. And when I came back out, he looked at me like he forgot. I was like, I should have stayed inside.
Starting point is 00:21:30 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Now, it's 20. I'm like, man, do you even work here? No, the front, you have to pay to get in. Naturally, we don't just walk around with cash. So I'm like, okay, I have to go to the ATM to get cash. Especially in Atlanta. Leave me your ID.
Starting point is 00:21:42 I said, I have to leave my idea at the front to go get cash from the ATM from the spot that I'm going to be now inside. She said, yes, okay, cool, go do that. It's $10 every time you withdraw money from the ATM machine and it's only increments of $200. God damn. Wait, really? That's what it was.
Starting point is 00:21:58 Yeah, I took out money in the hotel for a reason. So, you know, when in there, I'm thinking, okay, it's Julian's birthday. You're going to have a night. I said, you know what? I'm going to get a thousand singles. Let the whole crew have fun tonight. Damn. Am I in the crew?
Starting point is 00:22:10 Where was I? I didn't get a dollar. No, listen. Julie was there right there. The waitress said, okay if you get a thousand singles you can't get any more until you throw that whole thousand
Starting point is 00:22:20 I said excuse me I said what? I said what? You're going to monitor me throwing a whole check your pockets I was about to say yeah did he throw everything? Check him what is this like where am I? I've never heard anything like this I said wait so I have to
Starting point is 00:22:35 completely throw all of the singles I get from you right now before I can get any more you said yes I said I'm ma'am I've never heard of this policy this preposterous Atlanta. If anywhere is a strip club town, it's Atlanta, what are you talking about? She said, that's the rules. I said, you know what? I said, you know what? I'm going to go get these 400
Starting point is 00:22:54 singles and I'm going to have a good night and that's it. $20 for 400 singles. Plus I had to pay another $10 to get the cash to get everybody in, which I had to pay $140 for $10.00 for seven people. They really got us because I did the same thing to get it. I pay for everyone. Or maybe it's two different girls. It was the craziest. It was the craziest night ever. And then they charges $100 for that room. for that room, the skybox. The skybox, which had a wall. Oh, that was only $100. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:18 Oh, that was good. That was worth it. That was a steal. Yeah. Holy shit. Yeah. I would have paid $1,000 for that shit. And there was only like half of us in there too.
Starting point is 00:23:27 But overall, listen, man, we had a great night. Everybody got home safe. One of the distributors came up to that skybox. I said you want to do a private room. I said, no, I don't want to go in the bathroom stall with you. Prior room's in this shit. But yeah, we had a great night. Everybody got home safe.
Starting point is 00:23:40 And that's the most important part. You know what I mean? So shout out to the Pink Pony. and shout out to all the girls that worked there. We had a great night last night. Lori, can you mention your payment method from the Pink Pony? Remind me. The process.
Starting point is 00:23:52 So, Rory was paying it all off. You know, that's typical on the company card. And they asked him for a fingerprint. Oh, yeah. Yo, all right, that was one of the, thank you for reminding me about that. So I paid the check. To the tip, everything, swip, she gave me my ID, my card back. Like, I was getting ready to leave.
Starting point is 00:24:12 And she was like, she came. with like this little square and she was like I need your fingerprint I said for what and she's like oh we just we need it I said did my card not go through like do you need to swipe it again she said oh no no everything went through so why are you want my fingerprints
Starting point is 00:24:27 and she's like it's just something we do here I was like I'm not giving you my fingerprint like you're not happening I already paid you it's done and she's like okay that's fine and I was like why were you so easily persuaded for me to say no on that I guess it's like collateral but it's It's like it doesn't make sense, though.
Starting point is 00:24:45 Yeah. No, it's for artificial intelligence. Like she pushed for it and I said no. And she was like, yeah, that's fine. I was like, no pushback. I'm very confused right now. No, she did the same thing. She said, yeah, I thought for that section that we got that you had to buy, you know, we come from New York and you get a section like that.
Starting point is 00:25:01 Buy a bottle. Yeah. Get a section. I was like, okay, we'll get a bottle, I guess, of, you know, whatever they want to drink. Everybody said tequila. That's okay. So get a bottle of Casamigos, whatever, whatever they want to drink. So, yeah, that'll be like four.
Starting point is 00:25:13 450. I was like, okay. I said, but damn, for a bottle, like, I was like, I don't drink. He doesn't drink. You know, I was like, maybe like three of the girls they drink, but I was like, I'm not going to force him to drink a bottle of tequila by himself. She's like, oh, no, you don't have to get a bottle. Yeah, we got Heineken. I said, man, why am I having this conversation about a bottle with you? I said, just bring me seven fucking shots. Yeah. And let's get out of here. After everything I went through in London, anything would have been fine. Yeah. I was like, can we do the London comparison? Because I feel like, there is no comparison. The pink pony wins by a fucking man. It's not even close.
Starting point is 00:25:46 There's no bottle bloke. No bottle blocs, no bottle boys. It's not even close. They actually brought the liquor we paid for. Yeah. Not a carafe of some well tequila. The pink pony wins by a landslide. If it's the versus between the pink pony
Starting point is 00:25:59 and whatever that fucking hole over the wall we were in in fucking London, it's the pink pony by a landslide. Listen, man. The odor I get, well, that strip club in particular. Because strip clubs in Atlanta, like Magic City, the ones that we usually go to. and rest and peace to follies, man.
Starting point is 00:26:14 I just want to have them to sign to a quick. Legendary. Those are more like social. Like you go with girls. You can even go with your wife. You go with family. Like it's a thing.
Starting point is 00:26:24 That was a regular old school, miserable old single man strip club. Yeah. Like I was observing that strip club way different than I've looked at anything in Atlanta. I was like, this could be my future. Yeah. If I don't get my active,
Starting point is 00:26:42 together. I don't stay on the straight and narrow. I could be this old lonely man asking, is diamond working tonight? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just ashing my Marlboro, like, I made the right choice. I'm never, I'm never settling down. That looks like women can't contain me. That does great numbers at like one in the afternoon.
Starting point is 00:27:04 Oh, yeah. It looks like it's rocking in there one and afternoon. But I'll never go back. It was. Never go back. Even though I did meet a beautiful young lady in there. Got her name. damn, fuck.
Starting point is 00:27:13 Good. But she was great. She looked amazing. I'm sure it wasn't her real name. No, it wasn't her real name. Probably. But since we've been down in Atlanta over the weekend, we got a few good albums that came out. We officially got the numbers for the Drake in 21 Savage.
Starting point is 00:27:31 Her loss album, which was... 411. That's crazy. 411. Which initial projection was 330, and then that jumped to 390, and then they ended up doing 411. And I see there, they didn't quite do what Taylor Swift did with the whole 10, but they have like eight of 10 on the board right now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:50 That's pretty good. That's pretty good. Yeah. I mean, but we, did we not expect that? I mean, amongst each other, we all agree that it's great. So I think we as a collective expected that. I don't think we had an expectation for what a 21 and Drake album could have really been, though. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:06 It's crazy for me because y'all know how I feel when the announcement came. I was like, I was so confused, but I was like, they have really good songs together. They had about four songs at the time together. I said they have great chemistry but honestly the more I listen to this album Yo 21
Starting point is 00:28:24 got off on the shit Yo he kept He kept up He now he doesn't rap as good as Drake We know that Right But he did what he needed to do At a very very high rate on that album
Starting point is 00:28:35 The songs never went to a low point When he came on They just either carried or heighten the record This album to me You know This now solidifies I've seen 21 call out everybody from his freshman album cover. But to me, this album definitely solidifies 21 Savage as a real legit artist, rapper.
Starting point is 00:29:00 And while I do like the fact that he's calling out his peers from his freshman album cover as well, I like that. Yeah, I do too. And I like that's the way, because it used to be who could rap better. But now we know hip hop has moved into a different place with lyrics. I like now the verses is the new way to say that. Like, let's do song for song. Because now, obviously, no one's going to be like, oh, I rap better than you because that's just not what hip-hop is at this point.
Starting point is 00:29:24 So, yeah. I like calling out. It should still be competitive. This her loss album aside, like none of these songs can be using the verses. I think... Do we think that he beats Kodak Black? You still in. Yes, I do.
Starting point is 00:29:38 You think 21 beats Kod. I think 21, even without her loss, I think 21 beats... I don't like that you didn't even think about that. I've been thinking about it since he said it. I even went through Kodak's catalog. I was like, hmm. I think it'd be very close, but I think 21 edges it out
Starting point is 00:29:54 because he's done bigger features. Like I think a lot hits. Well, even though that's a 21 record and Kohl's feature, but his catalog, I just think, is a little bit more diverse with who he's worked with and certain records will hit different
Starting point is 00:30:09 than I think what Kodak could. I love 21. I agree. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know if he beats Kodak, though.
Starting point is 00:30:17 Well, give me some tracks. From Kodak? Yeah. So if we got a lot with Jay Cole, Kodak got. Which wouldn't even be that high in 21's catalog. That was just an example of something outside of his typical sound. Does Kodak have any song away from the herd loss joints as big as Super Gremlin? It's easy.
Starting point is 00:30:43 Rockstar with Post Malone Bank All right bro, bank account Bank account definitely Yeah It's bigger than Grellam. Yeah It is
Starting point is 00:30:53 Okay Yeah 21 has that X record Two with future No hard Yeah man It's tough Ball without you
Starting point is 00:31:02 Glock in my lap Numb I would love to see it Yeah I would love to see Versus with him and Codex I mean those were From that
Starting point is 00:31:10 It would be a good verse I'm not saying it would be like a wash or anything. It would be competitive. I just think 21 edges them out. 21 got some records, for sure. But that would be from the 2016 class, those would be the two definitely top competitors. Ouzi's on that album cover as well.
Starting point is 00:31:24 I mean, on that freshman list as well. That is true. Yeah, I think from that conversation, it was Kodak and Uzi were the two that people were giving the most pushback for. I see that they had a versus on Twitter with was it Kendrick in 21? Or Kendrick in
Starting point is 00:31:41 It's a weird versus? Who's doing that? And they said Kendrick was getting washed, but was it 21 or Uzi? I mean, I kind of doubt from either of the two lines. But how do you even do? They're completely different. I wouldn't even know how to compare that. You know how the Twitter verse does. You just take the most random two people and just pin their limbs to put each other.
Starting point is 00:31:59 But the point of verse is that like it makes sense. Right. Oh, we think that's what the point of virtues is. Sometimes they just grab two names and say, let's compare their catalogs. Duke them out, I guess. I thought that was interesting, though. But shout out to Drake and 21, man. Man, 411K is fucking insane.
Starting point is 00:32:15 That's... Eight of the top ten on Billboard right now. Yeah. It's a great album, though. I feel like everyone I've talked to, like... It's a weird reaction. I feel like everyone quietly loves it. Like, anytime it's brought up,
Starting point is 00:32:28 so I was like, yeah, it's. It's because of the reason, like, I said, I felt like a lot of people who did... It came out of left field, first of the album. I don't think people was expecting it. And then it's like, oh, shit, this is a really great fucking practice. Yeah. And the fact that it's that much better than what a time, I didn't think that going into it.
Starting point is 00:32:48 You think it's because of the shots he took it, especially the women in particular on the album, that people don't want to publicly praise it? No. Nah. No, I don't think it's that. I think that at this point, a Drake album being good is not a surprise. Like any album that Drake is a part of being a good album, people are not surprised about it. It's kind of like, yo, it's Drake. We know the album is good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We get it. We understand. He's the biggest artists in the world. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's kind of like, I think that's what it is. this point.
Starting point is 00:33:13 It's like, yeah, but people are still hating on honestly, never mind. Like, I don't know how people.
Starting point is 00:33:18 I like the album, but I could understand that not being for everyone and that, oh no, we know it's not for everyone. But it's a lot of music and a lot of albums
Starting point is 00:33:25 that isn't for everyone that I feel like people be like, yo, it's good album, but this is not for me. Like, I don't, yeah. I think people just generally
Starting point is 00:33:31 don't like that album. And I'm like, how do you not like this album? Like, it's good music. And I get it, that's not everybody's vibe. Right.
Starting point is 00:33:38 But my thing is good music, Going crazy to bad money. Don't know what the fuck he was saying. I know. We saw the footage. Yeah. I loved it. Great music.
Starting point is 00:33:48 I'm like, music is amazing. I get it now. You know why he's the biggest artist. You was bad. He was bunny. Oh my God. Don't do that.
Starting point is 00:33:55 We're not stows and kiss. Don't ever call me and edit his thousand kiss. You were Beyonce? He was such a fierce. Oh, wow. Well, speaking of 21 and new music. And I don't know how much I even want to get into this.
Starting point is 00:34:09 But 21 was on Clubhouse. I believe it was Clubhouse. Yep. And it was taken out of context because I did go listen to the actual clip, but the headline said, 21 Savage says, Nas is not relevant. He just has a core fan base.
Starting point is 00:34:23 And if you listen to the entire clip, 21 was more having a conversation and they were talking to people trying to figure out what the word relevant really meant in 2022. And at one point, somebody said, oh, if people 30 and under listen to you, that means you're relevant.
Starting point is 00:34:40 I'm like, I just don't think that's the definition of relevant. That's so bullshit. But I can see someone looking in it that way because hip hop, even though it's aging great, it's still a young man's game at the end of the day as far as what sells the most. And that's why hip hop's always going to continue. Right. Because the youth carry it, which is a good thing.
Starting point is 00:34:56 I just don't know if you can ever say somebody of that stature is not relevant. Hold on. Go ahead. Because, yes, you can say at the time right now he's not the hottest thing moving. Maybe sales aren't what. some of the younger generation is doing. But to say someone like that is not relevant in a culture
Starting point is 00:35:19 that they help push forward probably more than most rappers is hard to say especially when at the age they're doing at the level of music they're making like a Naz and the relevancy of seeing how hip hop could age because he's from the first generation.
Starting point is 00:35:39 KRS, Big Daddy Kane, all them stop rapping. Run DMC. stopped rapping. We never saw how hip hop could age. So I think he's relevant in the category of watching rappers get older and it not be corny for them to rap. I'm going to read the definition of relevant. Relevant is closely connected or appropriate to what is being done or considered appropriate to the current time, period, or circumstances of contemporary interests. With that definition, Nas is very much relevant.
Starting point is 00:36:12 Yeah. And I guess it depends what you define is relevance strictly off sales. Is relevance strictly off how many people you can pack into a venue? We could go semantics. We can play word semantics on what. Well, I don't subscribe to the white man's language
Starting point is 00:36:28 anyway, so I don't really care about that definition. But for 21 to say that Nas isn't relevant but then says he just makes good fucking music and he wraps really good or whatever he said. 21 was not saying anything negative. The headline made it sound like that.
Starting point is 00:36:42 Of course. If you listened to 21, what do you say? He was not disin'nas. No, he wasn't disin'nas. But he was off a little bit because his words were Nas isn't relevant. And that's incorrect. Nas is very much relevant. He just had a rap album of the year last year with KD2.
Starting point is 00:36:58 Yeah. So, yes, he's, Nas is very much relevant. He has a great album out now, KD3. He's still rapping at a very high level. Raps better than most rappers, new or old, is able to make three albums with the same producer.
Starting point is 00:37:14 Four. None of the albums sound anything alike. So I don't know. You know what I mean? When you say relevant, it's like whatever your definition may be, cool, that's your definition and relevant. But in the definition of the word relevant, Nas is absolutely relevant today.
Starting point is 00:37:34 He's one of many men in rap right now, one of the OGs that is setting course for, future rappers who are young right now to keep on rapping. Absolutely. That is relevance in its prime. And he still raps better than most of the current rappers.
Starting point is 00:37:51 Yeah, is there a legend from that era that's putting out the same volume as well? Absolutely not. No. Because you got to think to keep up with this era, people put music out a lot.
Starting point is 00:38:06 Like it's not fucking twice a year, or pardon, once every two years you put out an album type shit like even drake the biggest artist period has to put out a lot of music absolutely so i don't know any other legend that's aging so gracefully and keeping up with the volume of music you need to put out at a time right yeah and if you just want to get into kd3 i came here after kd2 and said i think this is the best one kd3 is the best one the fact that this shit keeps getting it gets better every time and that's the point that's why nage is very much relevant You know, this album is ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:38:40 This album is amazing. And I think it's not even close. It's a certified fact that Hit Boy is by far the most versatile producer in hip hop history. I was thinking just as a 32-year-old hip-hop fan, I couldn't be happier with her loss and KD3 coming out within two weeks of each other. Like, if you are complaining about hip-hop right now, I don't know what the fuck. You're not relevant. hear anything. Yeah, you're not relevant. Your ears aren't working. You're not relevant. And you should fucking get outside more because it is a lot of great music out. Um, hit boy. The only
Starting point is 00:39:17 thing I've been complaining about is replay value. I feel like a lot of projects don't have that anymore. We have two albums that have nothing but replay value. Her loss high replay value. Like I can't wait to turn the nods out. I can't wait to turn on the, the Drake in 21. Bro, and this is what it, this is, this is why I feel like this is the, you know, I know that the way we stream music and things like that. It may not be as beneficial for. for artists and the creators as it was back when it was physical sales only. But the fact that we get this music and we get, like you said, back-to-back weeks, I mean, this is a great time.
Starting point is 00:39:52 It's just a consumer of music, a hip-hop head to just be, you know, alive because it's like, bro, we get all of this music. I can go from a Hurloss album to KD3. Yeah. I can go back and listen to KD2. You know what I mean? West Sidegun album that came out a few. weeks ago. It's just so much
Starting point is 00:40:10 dope art and music that we have available right now. And again, back to hit boy, man. I just, it's, I'm just amazed at, you know, first of all right, when they announced KD3, I was like, all right, man, please don't fuck up the Trilogy, G, that you have going.
Starting point is 00:40:26 Because one and two are so amazing. But, I mean, KD3, it's like, I got to start looking at them, them two, like, yo, what the fuck are y'all doing together in these studio sessions, man? Like, how are y'all able to create at such a high level, not fall off, not lose a step,
Starting point is 00:40:42 but then to me, one, two, and three sound nothing alike. At all. Not even close. And that's the amazing part to me. It's not like I'm listening to the same projects. I'm like, all right, y'all are beating this sound into the ground. It might be time to close the chapter on this.
Starting point is 00:40:59 These are three different, totally different albums, the content, the sound, the production. Everything around these three albums is totally different. And it's only right that we salute both Nas and the Hit Boy on just setting an example of working together, having the business right, and just having the type of chemistry and the energy that they have between because I see people going back to the 21 Savage thing to say it's a disconnect between the old degeneration and the current. Is it? Because Nas and Hit Boy is showing us that there's no disconnect at all. And it sounds like now. They are very much connected.
Starting point is 00:41:35 And this is a younger producer and hit boy with an OG artist, Nas, being able to create three pieces of art together that are nothing to like. And that are absolutely incredible. And this third one, you know, I love the features on KD1 and KD2. Here in Lauren Hill was amazing. Hearing the firm back together was fucking crazy. Hearing Nas would pick Sean and Don Tolover was cool. Like I like the features they pick. But I love with this one, Nas carried the entire project.
Starting point is 00:42:04 there wasn't really a need for any feature on any of that shit right like which is crazy the amount of rapping that naz does to carry how many tracks is it julia 17 17 18 a little over an hour like yes 17 records the amount of rapping naz is doing carries the whole shit it's it's incredible i have come to a realization though well what's that if you've been following my journey for quite some time. Listeners out there. I've been very vocal that everyone on earth
Starting point is 00:42:36 has met Andre 3000 besides me. Yep. And I thought maybe one day would be my time. It hurt my heart that when we were in London we were going to go to Sohouse. He ended up being there.
Starting point is 00:42:51 I was like, fuck man. That might have been my chance. Don't see him in Soho. Maybe the stars would align and it would take London for me to see Andre 3000. Didn't happen. We saw Bottle Boys instead.
Starting point is 00:43:03 Yeah. Loaks. So I go to the Naz and Hit Boy KD3 listening party, which I haven't been to like one of those in a really long time. But because it was fucking hit boy and because it was Nas, I was like, yeah, I'm in there. Yeah. We can talk about that after. I wake up the next morning.
Starting point is 00:43:25 Okay, at the KD3 shit, I'm in the section. Yeah. I'm not trying to big league you. I'm just, you know, trying to paint a picture. Big league. I'm in the actual section with Naz, hit boy, mass appeal, static, everybody.
Starting point is 00:43:40 I'm in the right, I'm in the right section of if a legend or someone were to come, they would be where we were. And I stayed pretty much the entire time. And you're a legend yourself, so you were right at home. Oh, thanks. In the legend scale of that,
Starting point is 00:43:56 Jungle was more of a legend than that. Than I was. But I stayed for a pretty long time. past my bedtime. We had to go to Atlanta the next morning. Letters don't have bedtimes. Right. Come on. So I wake up for my flight, right? They just never sleep.
Starting point is 00:44:11 And I'm just, you know, I'm just scrolling through Instagram and shit, you know, doing some double taps, doing some likes, looking at some money bags. And I see Elliot Wilson post this picture. Yeah. Of hit boy, Nas and Andre 3000. In that same section? In the same fucking section. He was waiting for you to leave.
Starting point is 00:44:29 Fam. I was there for like three hours more. Yeah. in three hour and minute two, that's when Andre showed up. They like, they texted him like, yeah, he laughed. Yeah, he laughed. He's gone. Yeah, he's gone. He's gone.
Starting point is 00:44:41 I would like, I almost shut the place down. And I walked in at the same time as Hip Boy. I walked in with Hip Boy. I have no words. I'm like, this is just never going to happen. Yeah. This is never, and could you imagine all the pain I felt of all the photos
Starting point is 00:44:56 of everyone in Andre 3,000? My moment could have been me, Nas and Andre 300. Oh, man. Wow. But instead it was just me and BDOT. Yeah. Another legend. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:08 Just a flick of me and BDOT. See, what you don't know is Rory is Andre was sitting across the street perched on the rooftop, sitting Indian style, playing his Mayan flute. And soon as he saw you exit the building, that's when he decided to swoosh down and join the party. And said the red guy is going, and now I can enjoy it. How am I on the same schedule? I went from London to New York. Was he on my flight? Might have been.
Starting point is 00:45:34 Honestly, I think he was closer than you knew. Yeah. Imagine he was sitting in coached the whole time in the middle seat. You just miss him like this much every time. You just missed him. I was like, I was actually upset. Like really genuinely upset.
Starting point is 00:45:48 You can't, but see, that's the thing about Andre 3000. You have to, you can't, you only see him when you don't expect. Like when I, when I met him, I literally was just walking down. whatever avenue that is that Macy's is on on 34th Street and literally saw him standing on the corner of Victoria's Secret and he was just standing there. And I'm walking and I'm talking and I'm just kind of walking around Manhattan. We're from there so we're not really, we don't have the tourist head swivel.
Starting point is 00:46:19 We just like looking down on our phone and I just looked up. And he, Andre 3000 was standing just leaning on the wall of Victoria's Secret outside on the corner. And I looked and I was like, what's up, man? He's like, peace, man. He said, Roy not with you, right? Yeah. He's good. He's like, Rory, not outside, right?
Starting point is 00:46:37 I think he's home. He's like, all right, good. I could stay outside a little longer. Roy, what would you say to him? Because this is something you've obviously made clear. I don't know what I... Here's the thing. I have a very short list of people I would ask for pictures with.
Starting point is 00:46:52 An extremely short list. And he's on it. So I would ask him for a picture. So it's Andre 3,000. Who else? Chappelle is on that. But the time I spent with him felt like too intimate and like it would have been really weird. Same with mine.
Starting point is 00:47:09 I just didn't want to be that guy. We're having a cool conversation. I just would have been weird. Yassim, most deaf is on that list. For sure. And I might, DeAngelo, and I think that's where the list would stop. That's cool. For people I would ask for pictures with.
Starting point is 00:47:28 You would not get a picture with any of those gentlemen. Let me just say that right now. It's never going to fucking... No. When I was with Chappelle and them, go to Aunt Clemens' Instagram when it's Aunt Chappelle, Jay Elect, everybody.
Starting point is 00:47:42 I took the fucking picture. I wasn't in it. You can see Roy's reflection in the background. Your aunt didn't tag you. You put the camera emoji and tag you? Camera of Rory. Yeah. Consequence had me in a headlock so I couldn't...
Starting point is 00:47:57 But yeah, that would be... Actually, you know what? Q-Tip would be... Speaking of that. Q-Tip would be on that list, but I would never ask Q-Tip for a picture because I just feel like Q-Tip would look at me like I was fucking nuts. I saw him when Joyce opened up for Kate Trinada, Q-Tip was up in like our little green room viewing area.
Starting point is 00:48:16 And I was like, damn, everyone on the list I would ask for a picture is someone that would look at you nuts for asking for a picture. Yeah, but I don't know. When it comes to taking pictures and I've been fortunate enough to be around some legends and icons and intimate settings and be a part of some really like, you know, personal conversations. And it's just weird how in those moments,
Starting point is 00:48:39 you really just, you never even, the thought of asking for a picture doesn't even come to mind. No, not at all. It's like, I'm not even, like, I'm just honored to even be here having a conversation with you. Right.
Starting point is 00:48:49 And, you know, it's like everything that I always thought about you is confirmed, like, super down the earth, super personable. And just, you know, accepting and embracing and things like that. So it's like to end that with, can we take a picture? Is it like, it's a little weird.
Starting point is 00:49:06 Like Chappelle and I had had, and this is weird, that tape name dropping and talking like this. Yeah. Yeah, that's cool. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:14 And I had a really cool conversation about rich people and poor people finding religion and the difference. Like at that point, I would be like, oh, how about a flick? Yeah. Like, Dave, you don't mind if we, uh, no, I do mind actually. Yeah, I would have felt more comfortable like, yo, can I get a sick? Can I get a bus down, bro? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:26 Um, but to, to Edens question, I don't know what I would. say because they kind of like know already. You know people I would want to say thank you to Andre 3000 like yo you have no idea which he's heard that like he knows he's aware that he's a legend and the icon has changed everyone's life. How much people love him.
Starting point is 00:49:44 He doesn't need that for me to be like I don't think three stacks, like damn I guess I am influential. You know what I know I found your end. There's nothing to say. I found your end with three stacks. You have to pick up the Mayan flute and learn how to play it to become his competition. Yeah. And then have a flute off. And then have a flute
Starting point is 00:50:00 Flute off. Okay. Yeah. All right. Flute off the red nose rained. Look. Oh, dear. Got them. Flute off.
Starting point is 00:50:10 You would probably want me to dress as a leprecon when I played the flute. Oh, hell yeah. You'd have to learn some steps too. You got to wear a fucking leprechaun outfit. Irish jig. Irish jig. Little little Irish jig. Is that a pirate?
Starting point is 00:50:26 That's your way in with 2000. I mean, yeah. I feel like at this point, it's just never going to happen. It's going to have to accept it. It's going to happen. It would happen like, you see how we were just walking up the block getting some coffee and went to the store? That's how you bump into three. Where are we next?
Starting point is 00:50:39 Dallas. He'll probably just be there. Yeah. In Dallas. Yeah. With the flute. Most random places. Like, we would have bumped into three stacks coming out of the pink pony.
Starting point is 00:50:48 Like, it's most random fucking. If I fucking find out, Andre 3,000 is in Atlanta right now, I'm going to lose my fucking money. I'm pretty sure he's here. It's not the weirdest place for you to bump into him. Yeah. I'll tell you that. No, but like, our. schedule. Like he's just, he has the same tour
Starting point is 00:51:02 routing as us, but he's not touring. No, he'll actually be in on this same couch later today. Yeah. Guaranteed. He'll be right here in the Culture Lab later today. Well, yeah. It was a really cool listening event. We know how fucking industry listening events and how they've aged. I was home getting
Starting point is 00:51:20 better. I was fucked up. So I spent the day Sean at Texas about that event. I couldn't make it. I said, bro, I got to sit in the house with the sweats on and sweat all this shit out. Yeah. So I could feel better coming down here and I did that that day off really really helped um I feel a thousand percent better uh today so I'm glad you went though I heard I heard it was a really dope event I was just fun it was just a fun event right the album is amazing so shout out to Katie three
Starting point is 00:51:45 shout out to nod shout at the hit boy you said uh that Dehapal would be one of the people that you took you would take a picture with he would be on the list yeah did you watch his monologue no I'm not going to go well great of course I did okay everybody in the world has seen that You'd be surprised. I stayed up, I mean, I didn't do anything. What day did we fly here? Saturday morning. Yeah, I stayed in the hotel Saturday just because the flu is going around.
Starting point is 00:52:10 Yeah. I didn't want to force anything. And I stayed up and watched it live. I haven't turned on a hotel TV and went to the cable in maybe 10 years. Yeah. I was like, where's NBC at? I'll do that. Shepel, no, absolutely, man.
Starting point is 00:52:22 Absolutely. And it was everything I think we expected, if not more. It was. probably one of the greatest 15 minutes of speaking I've ever heard and call me a dick rider call me the honest
Starting point is 00:52:37 that was incredible it's not even I don't again it's I don't think it's even close anymore Chappelle is the greatest of all time it's you know just the way he uh
Starting point is 00:52:50 he leads into things the way he sets things up uh his punch lines his timing uh his influx in his voice. You know, it's everything about it is just perfect. It's just genius.
Starting point is 00:53:08 You know, the way he introduced the whole Kyrie part of it. Kanye was in so much trouble that Kyrie got it. That was just hilarious. Yeah. And he started, the way he started, like, and that Kanye is how you buy yourself some more time. Like, it's just that simple. And that's what Dave is. He's perfect at sitting back, analyze,
Starting point is 00:53:29 and seeing everything that's happening going on and then, being like, this is how you stay away from that and avoid that. Well, ironically, for some reason, Kanye is probably one of the least articulate people on earth. And this is not me doing the Kanye cape or being one of those people. Like, you just don't understand Kanye.
Starting point is 00:53:47 I really think in Kanye's head, he'd be smoking these conversations and these interviews, not realizing what's coming out of his mouth. In his head, he probably thinks he sounded, just like Chappelle did on S&L, except he's just yelling, slavery was a choice. Like, Kanye, I did that.
Starting point is 00:54:04 I'm going DeathConnor 3 in the Jews. Kanye. Fell asleep. Go to bed, bro. Kanye. Yeah. I think, and again, this is not defending what he said
Starting point is 00:54:13 or saying, y'all don't understand. I just think Kanye, in his own brain, thinks he sounds like Dave Chappelle and how Chappelle articulated that shit. But just bullshit, I want to abolish steps. Kanye probably thought that was the most well,
Starting point is 00:54:27 thought out thing ever in his head and just yelled out, let's get rid of steps. And I thought that everybody's going to be like, word. And we will all get. Let's get rid of steps today. I never even thought about that. Yeah, like, we don't need steps. We need steps.
Starting point is 00:54:38 I hate second-place. We have elevators. But yeah, like, when a fire happens, like, who cares? That's just getting an elevator. That SNL, that SNL skit, Dave Chappelle, man, just amazing to watch. Amazing to watch.
Starting point is 00:54:53 And, you know, he echoed a lot of sentiments. and statements that Kanye made, but just in a way where it just wasn't as offensive, as harsh, as disruptive. It's not in an attacking tone. And not an attacking tone. It's just like, yeah, like, I'm not saying, I've been to Hollywood.
Starting point is 00:55:16 I'm not saying they run it, but a lot of them. And even to that explanation, because of course we understand why the Jewish community gets upset. they all run media, they control the world because that was the narrative that the Nazis had done to start the Holocaust World War II all of shit, right? I mean, if you think it happened, Kyrie.
Starting point is 00:55:40 Sorry. That was even great. That whole part was like... Yeah. But Chappelle explaining, and I hope a lot of the Jewish community listened with an objective ear to Chappelle when he said,
Starting point is 00:55:52 I've been to Hollywood. One could start putting things together and feel that. They may not be right. Yeah. But when you go into Hollywood, you go into media, you go higher, higher up, a logical person could just put things together. It doesn't mean you're correct in thinking that. The correlation.
Starting point is 00:56:10 But there is some logic in like, okay, everybody's Jewish. Yeah. Yeah. Now that doesn't mean you should spew hate speech towards them. Right. The Jewish community has to have some understanding that we could put some things together here. Yeah. That's all.
Starting point is 00:56:27 I hope everyone really listened to Chappelle because I think he gave both sides pretty well. It was perfect. The Ferguson, Missouri comparison was the perfect way to put that. A lot of black people in Ferguson, but we know they don't run it. You could say the same thing with Hollywood, but one could think otherwise. The line that's circulating the most on Twitter at least is if they're black, it's a gang. If they're Italian, it's a mob. If they're Jewish, it's a coincidence.
Starting point is 00:56:55 And you should never speak about it. genius. I thought that was a perfect way to calmly, subtly say, yeah, that's basically what it is. And to even think
Starting point is 00:57:07 why every time we would suggest that, we have to shut the fuck up about it. It's like, that's weird. So I thought it was perfect. I thought it was the best way to sum up everything
Starting point is 00:57:18 that's been going on right now for everyone that's been arguing both sides on Twitter, Dick, Kyrie. Just watch that bit. Watch the Chappelle bit. It's the perfect way to address everything. And I like the fact that even he said it's for a genius who has, you know, become a genius at just speaking.
Starting point is 00:57:37 He said it's hard for him to even talk. Yes. And during these times. Like, it's like I have to watch what I say and how I say it because, you know, everybody's offended. Everybody is upset. When at the end of the day, listen, we're all human. We all come from a struggles. We all have our prejudices against us.
Starting point is 00:57:55 Yeah. But let's have these conversations and let's break down these walls of, you know, hiding behind, you know, not being offended. Let's not be so quick to be offended. Let's listen to each other and find a common ground of understanding. So I thought Dave Chappelle did a great job of that. And finding laughter in that as well. Like finding some laughter. Let's laugh at it.
Starting point is 00:58:16 Like, listen, we understand some people who are hurt and offended and we don't ever want to offend anybody. And we don't ever want to talk to hurt anybody. But if it happens, let's talk about it. Let's talk about why. And also, let's laugh during the talk. So Dave Chappelle did a great job, another feather in his hat of genius. To learn. Even in the sketches, the sketches were great.
Starting point is 00:58:37 The House of Dragons. That was great. Bringing Tyrone Biggams back. That hold in the monologue, the chain premise that he kept going back to with Kanye and the, like, that was some of the most genius comedy shit I've ever seen. It was like, and I'm going to nerd out. And the amount of entangras that was. in that premise of calling it back each time.
Starting point is 00:58:58 At Chappelle, like, the amount of time that this kind of thing's been going on to come up with that type of bit that quick is a different level of genes. And shout out to Norian EFN. Drink champs got shouted out on fucking Saturday Live. That's amazing. That was dope.
Starting point is 00:59:14 That was dope. Well, yeah, the sketches, I'm sorry. I just wanted to go back to that monologue because I've watched it like 30 times. But yeah, sketches were great. If you guys want to talk more about Game of Thrones, I thought it was funny because of all the Chappelle show characters and references on it. I didn't fully understand everything because I've never watched Game of Thrones or the new shit.
Starting point is 00:59:34 So it's probably funnier to y'all than it was to me. Yeah, they did a good job of poking at certain things from the show itself. But I was just saying, like, from a broader perspective, Chappelle and whoever else was helping writing these sketches, they did a really good job. Neil was involved with the last few times he hosted. They did a very good job of addressing again, all the social and political stuff, but through a really, like, like simple basic comedic lens, the barbershop sketch in particular, just the one white guy in there that was,
Starting point is 01:00:00 you know, completely not reading the room. Right. Just missing the mark on every single thing. Which is what happens. Which happens all the time on Twitter. Like that was a physical representation of Twitter. Mm-hmm. Like they did a really good job of driving home stuff.
Starting point is 01:00:14 Chappelle said in his monologue in integrating them into the sketches. Mm-hmm. So yeah, shout out to everyone that did that. And just the little shit I find funny. Like having a dragon light your crack pipe is just funny to me. That's just funny to me. That was pretty funny.
Starting point is 01:00:28 It had me think because they brought back the haters on the haters' ball and iced tea, which was great to see him. It did make me sad, man. Patrice O'Neill would have been in that sketch. He was part of the haters' ball. And Charlie. Well, I don't know, man. Patrice, if he stayed alive.
Starting point is 01:00:48 He might have been fucking, he would not have been allowed on SM. Patrice would have been out of here a long time ago, man. Let's just call it with a legend. Patrice would yell Jew way before Kanye. Years ago. He would have had to move to Ohio, but not by choice. Yeah, that's a fact. Patrice O'Neill, rest in peace to the legend, Patrice O'Neill.
Starting point is 01:01:03 Rest in peace to the legend, man. Man, and he would have been so needed. We say that all the time, but I'll never stop saying. He would have been so needed in this era. Actually, we're joking and saying we've been canceled, I think he would have became a superstar. Because the way Chappelle articulated everything that's going on right now, Patrice is that level of intellect as well.
Starting point is 01:01:22 Like, Patrice would have been great to... have us cut the bullshit, all the semantic shit, and be like, bro, look what the fuck is going on right? Somehow less filtered. Yeah, for sure. Way less filtered. Patrice O'Neill, you'll talk. One of my favorite comedians ever.
Starting point is 01:01:36 Oh, my God. He's got some great stand-ups still on YouTube. I watch them often. He also would have been, I think, podcasting would be completely different if Patrice O'Neill was here. Because I feel like podcasting, of course, existed, but I think even shout out to Sirius, our partner. Like the Opie and Anthony days where it was just like long form content,
Starting point is 01:01:59 Patrice was always the star. He could talk about anything. He could talk for three fucking hours. He was hilarious. He was articulate. He was intelligent. He started that long form shit. And if he had his own podcast, this would be different.
Starting point is 01:02:13 He would definitely be getting his shit off. He would make, he would force all of us to not be his PC or toe the line on these podcasts. Because we'd look pussy. Absolutely. rest of peace of Patrice O'Neill, man. Legend, icon. Wish we had more time with him. Wish we had more time with him.
Starting point is 01:02:33 Were. But yeah, the sketch of the potato hole was funny. That was, bro. And shout out to all the other comedians in it. They played that, like the corny news shit. Perfect, man. That was a really good. That SNL was one of the better ones we've had in a long time.
Starting point is 01:02:51 For sure. I think I would say when Bill Burr was on his, probably the last time outside of Chappelle that I was like, oh, this is fucking hilarious. Yeah. So, yeah, man, we have a, I think Cizza's doing the next one, right? Cizzo?
Starting point is 01:03:04 Kiki Palmer said, was that real? Yes. Shout to Kiki Palmer. That's big, wow. Kiki Palmer is hosting Saturday Night Live. That's my, congrats to her. Shout out the Kiki Pahl. Did you guys watch Nope?
Starting point is 01:03:15 No, I didn't see Nope yet. When we were coming back from London, I was going to watch it on the flight, but I fell asleep. Regardless of the film, Kiki killed that. She's character. She's talented as fuck. The palm is talented, man. She's definitely talented.
Starting point is 01:03:27 And I feel like she's still a little underrated. I wish she would make more music, too. I liked her music. Yeah. But shout out to Kiki. I will be watching that one as well. And Siza, I mean, of course we know. Oh, man, Siza.
Starting point is 01:03:38 I hope that means we saw the clips of the video that she's about to put out. That's oat milk. Listen, bro. I know oat milk when I see it. And her kitty cat. Julian, you know I know oat milk when I see oat milk. Come on, man. That wasn't the caliph?
Starting point is 01:03:52 Ciz. Nobody could eye oat milk like. I can't. Siza got the good, good surgery. You know, like the proportional, like, you look amazing surgery. Are we not allowed to, all right. No, you are. Are we not allowed to say that she obviously got surgery?
Starting point is 01:04:04 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. All the videos are, it's just her silhouette. We haven't really seen her yet. You know what I mean? Yeah. You've just seen the shadow. You can see the shadow. You can see the shadow.
Starting point is 01:04:15 You can look good on anyone, not to say she doesn't look incredible. I've seen some shadows. I've seen her in the light. I've seen some silhouettes. I've seen my silhouette. Yeah. It's not that good. It's gross.
Starting point is 01:04:25 Yeah, I see my 12 o'clock shadow, Julian. Let me tell you. My 12 o'clock shadow. Looks nothing like Cizzer. You know what's me when you see my shadow. But I hope that her doing S&L, that would confirm, right, that the album has to be coming before the years. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe even before November?
Starting point is 01:04:40 Like maybe some Black Friday? Would that be a good guess? That would be interesting. Black Friday, Cizzer. That's my guess. Yeah, because we did think it was coming out around the Black Panther, too. I think we said that for a while for the last few months. So not off, maybe right before Christmas.
Starting point is 01:04:59 Yeah. Or right before, like you said, the end of the month, or the end of the month, Black Friday maybe. I mean, she's three for three or four for four with the records. I can't wait. Everyone knows how we feel about CISISA. So I'm excited. December 3rd is when that's happening.
Starting point is 01:05:14 Gotcha. December 3rd? Oh, that's December 3rd. Oh, S&L? Oh, no. Maybe we could get it Black Friday then because she would perform after the album. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 01:05:22 Yeah. All right. Let me let me let. Let's go Sizz album. Looking forward to it, Cizor, you look amazing, you sound amazing. And we need some mail captions. So give us some captions, man. Ciz's going to give us some mail captions.
Starting point is 01:05:35 And as much as I give her shit about accountability, I don't want her to take any bit of accountability. I love when she doesn't take accountability. Love it. Classic fucking records. Yeah. Is there anything else? Where are we at?
Starting point is 01:05:47 Oh, those are the real votes? Well, the fake votes? Wait, well, we get sued if we, Show it? Oh, all right. If you're watching, we have the Drake and 21 Vogue. YouTube.com. I don't know if this is real or official.
Starting point is 01:06:03 If that's... That's cool, though. Fire. Okay. Yeah, we see it. Wow. What is the quote again from 21? You have to be political.
Starting point is 01:06:14 21 Savage is not holding back. That's so funny. Should we talk about the Twitter disaster? Yes. I have my blue check now. All right. For those that don't know, Edden bought a verified check. We should have got one for our account.
Starting point is 01:06:31 I mean, I guess. You have to understand why. Did you feel verified after that check came? No, I know I don't. Did it feel like a void in your life that maybe was missing? Man, that was not a void. My point was, was you look in the mirror like, yes, fine. It was more special.
Starting point is 01:06:44 For $8. For $8. For $8.00. Or getting a green card or getting a verification on Twitter. I only have my verification. But the point is that. He's a verified American. right, I'm verified American.
Starting point is 01:06:53 For $8. This is why we need to close our borders. This is exactly why. Trump was right. Illegal immigrants getting Twitter verification. They're stealing our blue checks. Now his voice matters. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:07:05 That could have went to a white man. A blue check? Yes. The guy bar-side of pink pony. It was definitely cheaper. Taking our jobs and they're taking our blue checks. Taking our blue checks. God damn it.
Starting point is 01:07:18 Get out, Edd. That's sick. It was very much cheaper. Like, is this country even ours anymore? I don't know. It's going fucking running the muck. But, Eddard, I like what Edith was like, you know, I was one of the shake shit up. Shake shit up.
Starting point is 01:07:31 He said that in the green room. Hold on. Shake shit up. Hold on. Nobody was shook up. You have to understand. People were getting tight because people were getting a verified blue check. For $8.
Starting point is 01:07:41 Yeah. Let me tell you, that is now the value of looking verified on a social media platform. Absolutely. And we care about that way too much. I had it valued at $0. Right. For real. I'm still not verified on Twitter.
Starting point is 01:07:54 I don't get a fuck about that shit. I think we just put too much value on that little visual way too much. Let's talk about some of the fake tweets then. Oh, yeah. Well, exactly. That was the real big problems, is that Twitter and Ilamas was getting a lot of backlash because there was a lot of people that were getting the verified check for $8.
Starting point is 01:08:13 And then making like fake like Woj accounts, fake CNN accounts, and then just automatically believe. Oh, the biggest one was LeBron James saying, quote, I don't call LeBron James, saying that he was like retiring from Lakers or some shit like they are moving on or going back to Cleveland, you know? Well, sports-wise, but the biggest one financially was Eli Lilly, which is a pharmaceutical company that provides insulin,
Starting point is 01:08:37 said that they would start giving out insulin for free. Damn. And their stock dropped millions of dollars. Oh, shit. But this is the Twitter I grew up on them. Yeah. Like, y'all wasn't around for the fake retweets? Had us saying some crazy shit.
Starting point is 01:08:54 Disrupt some shit in the real world on social media. This is the new version of the fake retweet. There's a 4.5% drop in their stock after 1. Damn. After someone paid $8, they tanked 4.5%. I love it, though. You see what I'm saying? I love that.
Starting point is 01:09:08 That's crazy. Look at the world we fucking live in, man. This is the crazy. I'm telling you end up fucking simulation. Nobody won't listen to me. This is the sick of shit in the world. Someone tweeted from the fake Pepsi account, Coke is better. Brut.
Starting point is 01:09:19 See what I'm saying? I love it. And I'm sure Elon. and the rest of the lizard people that control our... The lizard people are like, are just laughing. You know they went inside of a volcano and just laughed at the tweets. Inside of a volcano that was erupting. Like, look at these mere mortals.
Starting point is 01:09:39 They could never be in here. They'll never be reptiles like us. Lockheed Martin stock dropped as well after a tweet that said, we will begin halting all weapons sales to Saudi Arabia, Israel, in the United States, until further investigation. into their record of human rights abuses. Bruh. Did you see all the LeBron lying memes that were going around the last week?
Starting point is 01:10:00 Oh, my God. I love that. It was just a picture of LeBron on the cash was like, listen, Hope showed me 92 of the bricks. I was like, bro, you should be careful. I don't want you to lose those. Well, so the LeBron joke started after a press conference of him talking about takeoff's passing and saying how early in the Miami few days. The music in 2010.
Starting point is 01:10:23 He had them, way before it even existed. And then they showed a video. They showed a video of Offset in 2010. He was pop locking in a fucking bedroom. They said LeBron had a Travis Porter record. They thought that that was the week. Wait, hold on on. LeBron said 2010.
Starting point is 01:10:45 Yeah. He said he was in the locker room. And they said they were in high school. He said D. Wade and everyone else was like, yo, who is this? Turn this off. It's corny. And he was like, nah, they're the future. No, that's future.
Starting point is 01:10:56 I told them. I told everybody. I told them that was it. That's Migos. You could ask him. It was like, well, that was Travis Porter and somebody else you were playing, but that was not the Migos. So we were all listening to Watch the Throne. And LeBron was like, nah, I'm not on that.
Starting point is 01:11:11 You're all on that? I had Watch the Throne at 99. I'm on some new shit. But, you know why I love that? Because it was a, it was, that has always been silently a thing. Like, even during the bubble when LeBron had. like the books that he was reading and those pictures came out and it was only on like page three the entire time like people have been slowly building this case against lebron for a few years
Starting point is 01:11:32 and it's been funny but i think like you said the takeoff thing which is when people were had enough like all right fam 2010 all right listen we built our case against you for years we're getting you out of here today today it stops and i just loved it because it's like first of all it's like lebron james we love lebron one of the biggest athletes ever but people have been silently calling LeBron or his bullshit for a few years and they was just fed up at this point. No, I had heard that in 2011 the first time
Starting point is 01:11:59 that LeBron had met Cuevo he had on a Gucci sweater and LeBron was like, nah. Versace. That's your lane. Don't wear that. Don't wear that. Don't wear that. Govise. A photo of a JFK
Starting point is 01:12:13 in the convertible. I told JFK that drop top wasn't a good idea the day before. Brut. It's fucked them. We should laugh at that, but we understand it's like, yo dog. Come on, man. Stop it.
Starting point is 01:12:30 We love you, Bron. What else has, Brian? I mean, I remember during the bubble, those pictures of him reading were very funny. What is the other lies that? It was the one press conference when the dude was asking him about the Godfather movie. Oh, yeah. And he was like, yo, what's your favorite quote? And LeBron was definitely about to say, say hello to my little friend.
Starting point is 01:12:48 You said, you know, he said those movies are so long, you know, there he goes, there's so many lines. Yeah, yeah. I can't name one. I can't name one. It's like when that reporter asked Trump, you're a Bible guy. You read the Bible. He goes, I know every single passage. He was like, what's your favorite version of the Bible?
Starting point is 01:13:03 And he was like, can't name one. There's so many to pick from. There's so many. It was the same approach. And then there was the press conference. John be talking, hey? John. He'd be talking that talk.
Starting point is 01:13:13 There's so much to pick from. There was the press conference when he was talking about Liverpool and the Socrates and the woman said, you know, our correspondent who's also talking is a legend on the team and he goes, oh, I knew that. Then they asked him like the captain of England scored a goal or something. There was something along those lines. And he was like, I thought it was cool that he scored like that. And they were just like, yeah, LeBron.
Starting point is 01:13:38 Like LeBron, it's just that people, we love LeBron, but people have been trying to call him out on bullshit for years. See, I don't know. That makes Kyrie's flat earth theory a little more palatable. Now that Brown's just giving it up like that. Dole. That fucking Godfather shit had me crying. He said he predicted Kobe's game. He definitely was about to say, say hello to my little friend, for sure.
Starting point is 01:13:56 For sure. Those movies are so long. You said he predicted Kobe's 81 point game, too. Yeah, he said, I told everybody at night before he's going to go for 70. I told everybody. I mean, that's not a bad assumption of Kobe. You just, it's just not true. Just that LeBron didn't say that.
Starting point is 01:14:13 Nobody says, yo, he's going to go for 70 tonight. Nobody has ever said that. Like, 70? Oh, come on, man. Stop, bro. What you're talking? What person that ever sat down was like, you know what? He's going for 70 tonight.
Starting point is 01:14:27 It doesn't happen, man. Stop it, bro. I'm just waiting for him to be like, yo, I told the heat in the locker room. Mazz was going to fuck us up. Yeah, like, talk about that. Like, yo. Yeah, how come you can't predict that shit? Like, yo, Jason Terry.
Starting point is 01:14:39 You know, I told everybody. Jason Terry was going to average more than me. He coming off the bench. I told him. Like, bra, I say that. Like, say that shit. He won't say that, though. Jason Terry was killing y'all.
Starting point is 01:14:53 Off the bitch. He averaged more than Braun. Are you kidding me? Listen, if he wants to read one page of the biography of Malcolm X, not much, I can't get over. He said he knew the Migos in 2010. That's crazy. And then he showed, they showed Offset. Were they the Migos?
Starting point is 01:15:09 They showed Offset like this in the Brune. She was the crazy shit. He wasn't even thinking about that. Yeah, no. Brown was on that. He was holding the camera. He was holding the camera. Oh, my God, man.
Starting point is 01:15:20 Rich, don't kill us, man. Please. Yeah. All right, Rory. I know you don't like to talk about sports, but some pretty... Trying to call me pussy? Yeah, no. Some pretty big games last night. Joel Embed had a crazy fucking game.
Starting point is 01:15:40 59, 11 rebounds, eight blocks, four bitches, all kind of shit. No, Brown predicted it. I don't know if you saw. Yeah, no, Braun definitely predicted it. You said Joel was going to go for 70 last night. Joel and B had a crazy game. Shout out to Joel and Bede. I think it's only him, Iverson, and Will Chamberlain now for the Sixers.
Starting point is 01:15:59 Oh, wow. That had games like Joel and B, man. I just don't know how happy he is in Philadelphia, though. You're not trusting the process. Well, I trust the process. I don't trust a long fucking process. Yeah, I trust that the process has run its course. I think that Joel, I just think that he's happy in Philly.
Starting point is 01:16:18 I think that he's pretty much done with that city and ready to get out of it in and take his talents elsewhere. To the Knicks? Oh, that would be crazy. That would be crazy to have Joel in New York. They would give the whole roster. It would just be one person on the court. Just one verse five.
Starting point is 01:16:33 It would be us. Us and Joelle. Yeah. Darius Garland had a good game, a crazy game last night for the Cavs. He had 51 points. He only missed like five threes or some shit. He had a crazy game, but Donovan Mitchell wasn't playing. And they lost.
Starting point is 01:16:48 Yeah, they lost. He got some extra shots last night. 51 points, though, 10 for 15 from the threes. Some crazy shit like that. I like Darius Garland. I think that he's one of the underrated players in the league. Cleveland is dangerous, man. Cleveland is going to be a really good team.
Starting point is 01:17:01 I don't know if Brooklyn wants to see Cleveland in the playoffs. I love Kyrie, obviously, love Katie. But that Cleveland Cavs team is a young, hungry, aggressive team. And I think they're about one piece away from really, really being Eastern Conference finals, like, every year for the next few years. Shout out to Darry's Garland. Really good game. I like him a lot. Your Lakers picked up their third one of the year.
Starting point is 01:17:28 Yeah. It's only up from here. They beat the Nets. Good job. Listen, man. Yeah. Yeah. Anthony Vagos at 37.
Starting point is 01:17:38 I think they can win out from here. Yeah. Why not? Oh, man. I see a street. We just, I don't know, man. We got to, I don't know. We got to make some changes.
Starting point is 01:17:48 I do like, I do like, I do like. Clearly. I do like the fact there. Bold take. crazy. Damn. That's like when a... I just don't even know what to say about... Like, I just can't...
Starting point is 01:18:00 Listen, we've had our years of being bad. Lakers, you know, and Kobe had a few years of some really bad rosters and not really being a great team. But this... The Nick Van Exel years? Yeah. I mean, but even those years, even those years, we played better than this. Oh, I mean, of course.
Starting point is 01:18:15 You know what I mean? Any year. Yeah, like, this is just, I don't get it, man. I don't... And this roster is, I know, aside from obviously, you know, Anthony Davis and LeBron and and Russell, those big names. The roster is just a bad. This is a bad team.
Starting point is 01:18:29 It's not good chemistry. This is a bad fucking team. And I don't know, man. I don't know. Good to get a win against, you know, the Nets. But we're going to probably lose the next seven. But what else? That's just how it goes with this team right now.
Starting point is 01:18:43 Win one, lose seven. But good, great news around the sports world. Rory, you know, the last dance documentary with Jordan, We thought that that was, you know, the cream of the crop last. Hurrah, if you will. Yeah. But Jordan Pippen are indeed back. Oh.
Starting point is 01:19:02 Doing the big three or something? Oh, that's late. If you want to call it the big three, maybe I'll call it that. But are they doing like commentary, the podcast together? Nah, that'd be crazy. Making amends? Making something. Space Jam 3.
Starting point is 01:19:16 Yeah, the family's together. But not that Jordan Pippen. Larson Pippen, Scotty. Scottie Pippen's ex-wife and mother of his children. Futures, girl. Futures ex. A few other names on the list, if you will. And Marcus Jordan are officially have been spotted on beach dates.
Starting point is 01:19:38 Who's Marcus Jordan? Is it like an actor? Oh, no. This is the goat's son, Michael Jordan's son. And it's been, we've been getting pictures for a few months. Wait, hold on. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, it's official. Michael Jordan's son is dating Scott.
Starting point is 01:19:52 Scottie Pippin's ex-wife. Michael Jordan, the Michael Jordan, son, Marcus Jordan, is dating Larsa Pippin, the ex-wife to Michael Jordan's Batman, Robin, you know, the best two-punch combo we've seen in the NBA history. That's Scottie Pippin, ex-wife, Larsa Pippin is dating Michael Jordan's son, Marcus Jordan. Damn. Her a different type of combo. So, you know. That is a different combo. that is a different package.
Starting point is 01:20:23 That is a different pick and roll that is being set. So his ex-wife's father-in-law is Michael Jordan. His ex-wife's like some Game of Thrones shit. Mike did take that personally. He's never putting that grudge, no, no, no, no. Since Marcus' playing career didn't pan out, does this put him back in the conversation for,
Starting point is 01:20:45 like, we know he's got the Jordan Gene in him. Is this it? Ew. Can't lose mentality. Yeah. No, this is it. This is, I mean, listen, man, she used to, I'm pretty sure she babysat Marcus Jordan at some point in her life. Do you think Scotty would have went to Portland had he known this?
Starting point is 01:21:04 Oh, my gosh. I think that Scott. Why didn't LeBron pull him to the side and say, hey? Yeah, LeBron. Why are you going to say, listen. Jordan's son is eventually going to date your current wife right now. That told him. Where was LeBron?
Starting point is 01:21:17 Do you see that boy she babysitting? He's going to grow up in a. Also, have you. heard the megos. He's going to, yeah, he's going to, he's going to smash them cakes. Smash them cakes. It's just, I don't listen, man, I keep telling you, everything that we think is impossible and will never happen is fucking happening. You say it all the time, though, right? This is really a joke. No, this is real. This is a real thing. They've been spotted on a beach date, looking like a couple,
Starting point is 01:21:43 in my acting like a couple. This is like a nasty soap opera when like the babysitter eventually, it's like, oh, you're all grown up now. Yeah. Like, This is... Yuck. Listen, man. And how did they meet at Thanksgiving? Like, this is fucking weird. They met the 90s when she was babysitting him.
Starting point is 01:21:58 Yeah. She was babies. At the hospital. At the hospital when he was born. At the fucking arena. At the United Center. It's her godson. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:05 Who's this little guy? This is the craziest shit ever. We're in the fucking simulation. I keep telling you guys this shit. So we'll have to wait and see what comes of it. If you're Scotty Pippen, what are you doing? If I'm Scotty Pippin? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:18 Or I'm stepping to mic immediately. To Mike. Yeah, we got a fight. Wait, why Mike? And like, you know how you have... Okay. Get your son's fucking balls off my ex-wife's ass. The fuck you meet.
Starting point is 01:22:31 You know when you have, like, parents... Like your parents' friends that you call uncle, aunt, and then their kids are like your cousins type of situation. Yeah. So, like, what... If that was the case with them... That was his auntie that wasn't his auntie. Is that now their cousin slash stepfather?
Starting point is 01:22:50 Uh... Yeah. Yeah. No, why would he be this? Well, he's not about Marcus Jordan. Marcus Jordan, yeah. It's who stepfathers? Scotty Pippin's kids?
Starting point is 01:22:57 Yeah, yeah. Slash cousin. Yeah. Yeah. That's my big cousin. You think MJ is one of the Scotty's kids, God's father? I would. I would.
Starting point is 01:23:07 It's a safe assumption. At least, I mean, if not, if it wasn't like an official that, it was like they call him Uncle Mike. They call each other cousins like, at least. If you would have told me that Dennis, Rodman would look like this most sane person out of the bunch in 2022. I would have looked at you fucking nuts. Dennis Robbins is a global humanitarian.
Starting point is 01:23:30 He's a global humanitarian. Yeah, he's going fighting for world peace. Yeah, he'd be chilling. And Marcus Jordan is now banging Scotty Pippets ex-wife. Damn. The fact that Dennis Robin could open his phone and be like, you y'all are fucking crazy, it's hilarious. Bro, I'm telling you, this is a simulation.
Starting point is 01:23:46 I don't know what's going on. I don't know what the fucking rules are anymore. She plays the clout game, right? Isn't she like one of those? She's a hottie. Yeah, she's one of those. She's outside. So is this one of, is this one of those things?
Starting point is 01:24:00 I mean, well, she's just having fun. What is she seeing Marcus? Besides his childhood. Besides him grow up and take his first steps. That's creepy. Oh, man, man. It's, listen. She's the creepy uncle at the barbecue.
Starting point is 01:24:16 Yeah. Aren't you all grown up now? I would love to know what Jordan thinks. We don't talk about creepy aunties enough. Oh, they are creepy aunties enough. We don't have the conversation about creepy aunts. Do you think once he turned 21, this could be even creepier now? I think Scotty's probably going to go and through memories.
Starting point is 01:24:31 Like, you look just like your father. Ugh. Ugh. She's 17 years older than him. She's 48. He's 31. Yeah. Oh, I mean, that's not.
Starting point is 01:24:41 I mean, that's not crazy. No, in this story, that is not the craziest thing. No. That's not what's crazy about this story. It's the relations. It's the relationship. Yeah. Well, she just want.
Starting point is 01:24:53 I see where she's going with this. You know, she wants the Jordan's before they drop. She wants the shoe money. Yeah. Could you all be with a woman that's just plummeted? 15 old. Easy didn't jump over the jump man. Can I be with a woman that's 15 years old than me?
Starting point is 01:25:05 Yeah. So, like, they'd be like 80. Is it clear? What's her name? What's her name? Larsa. Larsa. Did Larsa jump over the jump man?
Starting point is 01:25:15 She may not have jumped over him. She jumped over him. On him, yeah. She did the same split. Yeah. She is the new logo. Let me tell you. No, he did the same split.
Starting point is 01:25:27 You know how they've been talking about making Jerry West, maybe not the logo. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, Larsa. Is Larsa? Larsa is the new jump man logo. Absolutely. Or, hey, you guys aren't thinking this through. Jump woman logo.
Starting point is 01:25:38 No, no, no, no. All right, hold on. Jump them. Maybe we should give Scotty some credit or foresight here. Mm-hmm. Is he sending her to take the empire down? Mm-hmm. What if they get married and have a dicey divorce?
Starting point is 01:25:53 and she leaves with some stock and gets back with Scotty and now he owns some of Jordan Brand I can guarantee you that Lars of Pippen will not get any Pete of Jordan brand out of Marcus Jordan I can guarantee you Haven't you seen Tommy Boy?
Starting point is 01:26:08 It's the same thing, okay I can guarantee you Marcus Jordan has no control of the Jordan Empire Yeah but he'll inherit it Okay, you think so? I don't think so. I don't think so either. Not happening.
Starting point is 01:26:19 No funny. Jordan would give that to one of his golf partners Mike will give that to one of his pets before he gives him to Markets Jordan. The fucking dog, the family dog will inherit the Jordan brand before Marcus Jordan. We are talking Mr. Fuck Them Kids. I mean, that's sounded weird, but absolutely. No, no, we, yes, we know. We know what you mean.
Starting point is 01:26:36 That was Garza. Larsson is Mr. Father O'Neill. Larson Pippin's the Father O'Neill. Of the NBA. Larson Pippin is Mr. Fuck them kids. Laws say, man, fuck them kids. No, no, literally. Fuck them kids.
