Starting point is 00:00:34 I don't know if I'd like the tone from anyone there. No, I'm good. I'm great. Is everyone just as upset as me that there's a no bag policy at WWA games tonight? Oh, wow, yeah, because you were just such a huge supporter. There's a no bag policy? Yep. So if they get it in there, you know what they did?
Starting point is 00:00:50 So you can't go to a game with a bag? No. Cracking down. Like, so if women have a purse, they can't get into the game? No. They do that anyway at games, don't they? At the stadiums, not usually at arenas. If you think they don't check your bag going to the match.
Starting point is 00:01:06 Your bag, I mean, like, allow bags. That's what I mean. Which is kind of crazy because how did you, like, because they check bags. So how did you miss the dildo the first four times? I keep telling you how they got it in. I know how they got it in. And it wasn't the bag. Yeah, like if a guy bought it in, he's just going to put it down his pants.
Starting point is 00:01:23 If a girl bought it in, she's going to do the same. They're not going to stop dildos from getting to the arena. No, it is. That's not going to stop. I guarantee you there's going to be a dildo thrown at a game tonight. breaking no bag policy has been implemented for tonight's wmba games an attempt to crack down on the dildo throwers um wmbaa this is why y'all are lacking in viewership and and money y'all are my not they just don't understand they don't get it they think that people are bringing dildos in in bags well yeah he he fits
Starting point is 00:01:58 the bill but this is what i was saying he moved it for fun he didn't have to oh yeah for sure he actually didn't even know that was a trend at wmia games he already he just had it on him But this is what I was saying two episodes ago. How did they not stop this guy? Like, you know he's not here for the game. And he was by itself for sure. Yeah. Yeah, he's the guy.
Starting point is 00:02:20 How did you not? Anybody that buys a single ticket, let's start there. Yeah. Let's start there. Let's go back. You got a single ticket for the game tonight. Step to this line right here. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:28 We've got to take you in the back and give you a cavity search. I even think going to an NBA game by yourself is a little weird. And I'm an advocate of doing pretty much. everything by yourself. I just feel like going to a sporting event is like a social experience. Like you do that with your friends. I can go to a movie by myself. I can go out to eat by myself, all those things. But to go to like, I'm following. Just to like go to the game. That's a little weird. Who you high five? I mean, I guess maybe if like there's other season ticket holders that you've known for a while, like then that becomes friends. But just just like leave
Starting point is 00:03:03 here and be like, yo, I'm just going to go with Nick saying, oh, who you're going to do with? I'm going Dola. Yeah. You're going to be like, all right, you're lying to me. Who are you going with that you don't want me to know? Or you're me and somebody there. Yeah. Like, it's other people going.
Starting point is 00:03:14 You might not be sitting in the same section, but we'll all be in the building for the game tonight. I think, like, maybe baseball you could get that off. Because I'm going to, I'm going to games by myself. But you knew people there. Yeah. That's the difference. Like, I knew people.
Starting point is 00:03:25 I've gone to concerts by myself. I knew people that were going to be. 100%. I feel like baseball is too boring to be at, again. I would need company for a baseball game. A good, like, game, like, like basketball. like basketball game, I wouldn't need company for. No, because there is a trend of those guys at baseball games that have, like, they're listening
Starting point is 00:03:42 to the commentary on their headphones, they got their card and everything, which is kind of nuts because, like, I get it. But you could just watch this on TV. Like, you're by yourself. That's why you need the announcers. That's why you need to have headphones on when you're at the game. Yeah, going to a baseball game alone is definitely a lot weirder than going to a basketball game. I think baseball would be the normal one.
Starting point is 00:04:04 No way. shit boring as fuck there's no way and that's not I don't mean like disrespectfully when I say boring up it's just so long like that's I there's no way baseball games can be boring I've been to a lot of boring Yankee games I've been in some great ones though been to some great ones too
Starting point is 00:04:18 I don't find baseball baseball on TV can be boring to me but at the game I think it's fun but then again I don't go alone like I'm with company I enjoy yeah what's the greatest baseball game you ever been to hmm I'm trying to think I went to
Starting point is 00:04:36 Kyle Ripkin's first game off. The first game he missed? And he was at the game. He was just walking around and we were all doing standing ovations. That's funny. I think it was my first time I came to in the yards too. You went to Cal Ripkin's first game that he missed. Yeah, but he just broke the record. That makes sense for you. No, no, no. That's like on brand for you.
Starting point is 00:04:59 No, but it pissed me off. Like, my dad told me he was taking me to the game. I wanted to see Cal Ripkin. He's like, no, this is history. Like, he broke the record. Now he's, he's, taking a game. I was like, nah, I wanted to see him play. Yeah. He's just walking around the fucking. Now that he got the record, it's like he don't even care no more, yeah. Is anybody close to breaking that record? Right? Nobody. I think that's a record that's going to last forever.
Starting point is 00:05:19 That's definitely a record that's going to last forever for sure. I think I got David Cohn's autograph that day, or that may have been another Orioles game. Greatest basketball game I've been to 2000, 2001 NBA All-Star game in D.C. Yeah. We were used with Bow Wow. And Hove took his chick, allegedly. Serena Williams told me to get the fuck out of the way because she was on the Simpsons
Starting point is 00:05:42 You want to know how white I am on my 13th birthday My mom took me to Yankee Stadium And got my name on the thing That says happy birthday You felt like you had made it I have the photo Like the actual photo in my house still It's like in my walking closet
Starting point is 00:05:57 There's like an area where you can like put shit And I have that You got it framed? It's framed yeah I've had it framed since 2003 I just carry it with me That was a great game. But I never went to like any iconic, iconic baseball games, I don't think. I mean, the World Series when we won one game.
Starting point is 00:06:14 That was probably the best baseball game I've ever been to. Yeah. That was fun. But that was also the only time I'd been, we could have lost. It was World Series. Like, that was amazing to just go. I got to get to a Yankee game. Well, we went to one with Sean because the Orias was here and they,
Starting point is 00:06:29 damn all over the ears that day. Sean was happy about that. But I got to get to another game. But I'm surprised you haven't been to more, like, iconic basketball games besides like an all-star game no i've been to uh i think coby coby gave the nicks we gave him 60 in the garden that iconic game yeah i think i was i think it was 60 that he gave the nix i was at that it might have been a 50 point 50 50 something point game i think it may have been 60 i was at that game um i was at a regular season jordan uh
Starting point is 00:07:05 I was going to see Jordan Disrespect the Bulls. Bulls' next game. I think Mike had close to 50 that game. I've seen Penny Hardaway play in person. I'm getting old, man. Yeah. I've seen Penny Hardaway and Shaq playing the garden. Like, I see that Orlando Magic team playing the guard.
Starting point is 00:07:22 I saw, I saw Shaq play in Orlando in Orlando. Like, I still have, like, you know, have weird flashbacks of your childhood when you were super young. I have, like, a main one of being at a seeing Shaq, in a Orlando Magic jersey. Yeah. It was like literally a kid's dream. I think we went to Disney World
Starting point is 00:07:40 and then we went to an Orlando Magic game. The only time I've been to Disney World is Florida, right? Orlando. Yeah, I saw it. I mean, I was at Epcot Center when Michael Jackson movie. I told you about it.
Starting point is 00:07:51 Was it Captain E.O.? Y'all don't know nothing about Captain E.O. See, y'all ain't real Michael Jackson fans. You're focusing on Janet. Michael's the star. I'm waiting for you to say something slick. But don't be disrespectful. Fight Michael is the star.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Don't be disrespectful. They both were stars. Don't be disrespectful. Let me see you fight Michael as the star. They're both. Okay, but they're both stars. You can't say, yeah, like, like, Jen and Ray J. Of course.
Starting point is 00:08:17 They're both stars. Well, first of all, it's not disrespect Ray J. Ray J is a legend. We're not doing that. We're not disrespect to Ray. He's the main character of my story. Yeah, he's the main character in everybody's story. Everybody's dream.
Starting point is 00:08:26 Ray J is there. He's somewhere in your... He's affected all of our lives specifically. Absolutely. Do y'all remember y'all dreams after you after y'all wake up? Sometimes. Sometimes, yeah, it depends.
Starting point is 00:08:34 I can't remember my dreams after I wake up, man. Do you smoke weed right before you go to sleep? No. Oh, okay. I just can't remember my dreams. I had a dream about Chris Paul the other night, which is weird. That's gay as fuck. No, like, he was playing.
Starting point is 00:08:46 He was at work. He was playing basketball. But it's like, I don't, like, I just saw Chris Paul. I was like, fuck is Chris Paul. I was gay for seeing Tom Brady in real life, but he's not gay for dreaming about Chris Paul. I didn't dream about Chris Paul. Yes, you did. Paul was in my dream.
Starting point is 00:09:00 It's a different. No, no, no. There's a difference. He was a different. He was dreaming. He was the main character for sure. He was not. I was the main character.
Starting point is 00:09:06 Like, what are you talking about? Where were you? Like, Chris Paul was just somewhere and I just saw him like, hooping. I was like, what the fuck Chris Paul doing over there? Like, weird dream. Did you go to your dream book to try to figure out what that meant? That's gay. If you have a dream book, I think-
Starting point is 00:09:19 You don't have one right next to your bag? No. I do not have a true. Next to the photo of your happy 13th birthday, Rory at Yankees Day. I feel like every, did everybody's parents have dream book? Like, when I was younger, I remember my parents having a dream book. I had a dream catcher. I still have a dream catcher
Starting point is 00:09:33 from what you have a dream catcher for what I was sleeping with a nigga I ain't want to have dreams about so yeah I didn't want that nigga dreams crossing over into my dreams I was sleeping with somebody yo niggas was dreaming about what I was doing bro yeah this was last month for her last
Starting point is 00:09:51 yeah I was dreaming I was sleeping with somebody I didn't want to have dreams about and I ain't want him in my dreams that nigga would be in my business too bad He was in your bed. Huh? He was in the bed. Yeah, but he don't need to be in my business and in my dreams.
Starting point is 00:10:06 You don't have to live like this, baby, do you? I don't live like this anymore. I have a very peaceful life. This was years ago. Okay. Seven? Seven, exactly. All right, got you.
Starting point is 00:10:13 As long as it seven years ago, it's all good. It doesn't count. Well, that was like one of the first life. I was still believing in Santa Claus when I had a dream catcher. And they said that I wouldn't have nightmares if there was a dream catcher there. And I just continued to have them. So that's when I, like, started to feel like this was awful of shit. All the scary movie.
Starting point is 00:10:30 I thought was scary or not scary at all. Like, what? I can't believe I was ever scared of like nightmare on Elm Street. I don't know if there's ever, if there's really a scary movie. The Conjuring. Like, ever. The Conjuring is scared. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:41 But like, like, you're scared. Yeah. I ain't going to lie. I ain't going to lie. Like, I enjoy the conjuring a lot. I think it's a phenomenal movie. Candyman had the hood shook up a couple of few years. Oh, my guy.
Starting point is 00:10:51 Y'all guys were scared to cut the lights off in the bathroom and say Candyman in the mirror. Oh, as a kid, yeah. Yeah, you was a nigga. Candyman had you shook. Me ain't gonna do. We ain't going to say Candy Man was it. Were you more scared of Candy Man or Bloody Mary? Candy Man.
Starting point is 00:11:03 Okay. By far. Candy Man was like, niggas would not say Candy Man in the mirror in the dark. I've seen grown. I saw niggas that sold drugs and had guns on them that wouldn't do that. I'm like, hey, go in the bathroom and say Candy Man. Diggas is like, nah, chill.
Starting point is 00:11:19 That pistol can't save you. Bringing a gun into the bathroom to say Candy Man. You ain't saying Candy Man in the mirror. Oh, Bloody Mary used to terrify me. I've told you guys about my older cousin Mike who used to just like, lie to me constantly as a kid to petrify me. He used to go in the bathroom, shut the light off, and hold me in like a bear hug and just do the Bloody Mary song.
Starting point is 00:11:40 And then would start screaming at the top of his lungs. I was, like, traumatized by him as a kid. He would do so much fucked up shit to me. I told you to tie me through two ferrets in my bed when I was sleeping. Where did he get the ferrets from? He had two ferrets, Bonnie and Clyde. He just, he had two ferrets, Bonnie and Clyde. Some white shit.
Starting point is 00:11:56 He's white. That's definitely white. Ferrets, owning ferrets? Owning ferrets is definitely white. Those are white pets. I always wanted a ferret. But they're rodents, so they smell. They have a smell.
Starting point is 00:12:08 I've always wanted them. What made you want a ferret? Because they're very cute. No, they're not. I think ferrets are very cute. Again, when I was young, petrified of them because of what my cousin did. As I got older, I think they're adorable. They're very cute.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Ferrets are not. I wouldn't have one in the house. Look at that. No, they're cute. Nothing adorable about that. Like, I would go to like a ferret farm like the day. But I wouldn't have one in the house. But they're rodent.
Starting point is 00:12:28 If I see that shit running around my house, I'm shooting it. They're so fucking cute. That's not the cute about that. In New York, you could mistake in that for an actual rat. Yeah, it's like a rat possum. Like, what is that? Yeah, but type in cute after that on Google images. Like, don't, don't.
Starting point is 00:12:44 Yeah, yeah, you got to find the cuter. Like, show them all some like of the other versions of ferrets. That's still pretty ugly. Yeah. Ferrets are definitely ugly. Oh, come on. That's probably AI. Yeah, definitely AI.
Starting point is 00:12:54 Yeah, so cute. All right. So, I did Google. I didn't bring my dream book with me, but dreaming about a celebrity like Chris Paul can be interpreted in several ways. Projection of desire and aspiration. You may admire specific qualities that CP3 has, talents, achievements associated with him, deep in your subconscious and you want to embody Chris Paul in every single way. This is what AI saying. I want to embody Chris Paul?
Starting point is 00:13:18 Yeah. Okay. Number two, need for recognition. Dreaming about a celebrity could symbolize a yearning for more recognition and appreciation. and appreciation in your own life, either personally or professionally. So maybe this pod, Chris Paul was a metaphor for this podcast. And there's three of us on the mic. No, now that I remember, now that I think about it, I know exactly why Chris Paul was in my dream.
Starting point is 00:13:43 I was just talking about him the day before yesterday. Also, your subconscious mind may be using Chris Paul as a symbol to work through a current issue. Is there something maybe that could be related to Chris? seeing Chris Paul as a confident person in your life could nudge you in my life to develop more self-worth in my life you think this would lie
Starting point is 00:14:03 I just think he's a great point guard like I don't know that's it and number four you view Chris Paul as a cultural architect I don't know if I've ever looked at Chris Paul as a cultural architect basketball such as a hero a leader or a role model dreaming about them
Starting point is 00:14:17 may connect this energy towards your own life experiences shout out to Chris Paul man one of my favorite plays ever. We know. He's dreaming. He's dreaming.
Starting point is 00:14:27 He's dreaming. Yeah. Who else do you like usually dream about? I don't know. I don't remember my dreams after being up for like 10 minutes. I can't remember. Same. Like faces.
Starting point is 00:14:36 I can't remember like in depth what I dreamt about. I can remember like moments, but I can't remember in depth like everything I was you ever dreamt about me or Rory? No. Never. You see us every fucking day. You never dreamed about us. Never saw you in my dream.
Starting point is 00:14:52 Okay. I think you just don't remember. You forgot what in the first. 10 minutes. I would have told you. I would have came in here and told you that that you was in my dream. So you dream about Chris Paul, but not us? None of us ever.
Starting point is 00:15:02 Well, I didn't, I didn't choose to dream about Chris Paul. He just happened to be in my dream. And it wasn't even like an NBA game. He was like in a gym and he was just hooping. And I was like, it was random. It was like, the fuck is Chris Paul doing here. What were you doing there? That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:15:17 I was just like, all right, whatever we in the gym? What's your theories on deja vu? Do you think that comes from dreams or a past, life experiences? I think it's a mix. Or reincarnation. I think it's a mix of past experiences, things you've thought about. Yeah, past experiences and things you thought about kind of aligning and making the
Starting point is 00:15:39 situation of the moment feel familiar. Like, damn, I've seen this moment before. It's like, I think you've thought about that moment happening before. Yeah. And then when it does happen, it's like, oh, shit. I mean, I've interpreted it that way. and depending on how pessimistic I'm feeling at the time, either I think it means I'm in the place I should be right now. Like this is, this energy makes sense.
Starting point is 00:16:02 Or you could go like the final destination, Raven, Simone route and like somebody's about to die. Yeah, I don't go. That's a little morbid, a little dark. I don't go that far. Yeah, I don't go that far. You're not one of the chosen ones like me and Raven. You're right. Absolutely right. I just believe I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be at this exact moment.
Starting point is 00:16:21 Like I'm on the right timeline. Okay. Metaverse. But have you ever been in a spot you didn't want to be in and got deja vu? And you were like, fuck. No. Why should I have, why is this the right place to be? Like that girl crew?
Starting point is 00:16:34 Mm-hmm. I've been in the spot and gotten anxiety. It was like, fuck, why am I here right now? Yeah, I mean, that's my life every day. It was. So I feel about the planet Earth. Why am I here? I think I'm smoking weed again.
Starting point is 00:16:52 Earth gives you anxiety. Earth gives you anxiety. It does. Doesn't make any fucking sense. So one of our listeners, shout out to her. Demaris, we met her in Vegas. She sent me this meme. Fact check it because I don't know if it's accurate.
Starting point is 00:17:12 But she was saying we're right about time being a construct. Because apparently in 2025 and 1941, every single day is the exact same. like from the number of the month to the day of the week to the leap year to every day that again 1941 what to 2025 it's the exact same calendar like nothing is is different as far as the days numbers months leap years everything is the exact same it could be bullshit but that's not true because my birthday was on a you were not alive in 1941 you said every day is the same from 1941? No, no, no, no. From the year, 1941, the calendar year of 1941 and the calendar year of 2025 are the exact same, which has not happened. So, also, if time is just a loop in repeating
Starting point is 00:17:59 itself, I mean, we're definitely going to go into World War III this year, though. This, this was when everything kind of shifted and went to shit in 1941, and it kind of feels like the exact same thing is happening in 2025. So, okay, so the world is, is really what I'm trying to say. The world is having deja vu right now. Yes. The earth. Yes. To Adolf Hitler, they're having, to everything that happened Deja Vu, yes, I get it. Okay. All right, I'm excited now.
Starting point is 00:18:24 Are you excited at PJ? Yeah. See what was going on in 1941. Can you just like type in cultural moments of 1941? Just some of all the idea of what like happened in that calendar year. Well, we're in August. Yeah, I'm about to say we six months through the year already. No, shit, more than eight months through the year.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Like, yeah, so. Wasn't Hiroshima? That was 44. Well, no, Pearl Harbor was definitely 19th, December 7th, 41, right? All right. All right. So, hey, if you're by the intrepid in December, in December, get far the fuck away from it, because something is definitely going to happen. I got you.
Starting point is 00:19:05 San Diego, I suggest going north. It could be a weird December. The United States entered World War II after the attack on Port Harbor while the war was already underway in Europe with the German invasion of the Soviet Union. Okay. All right. So December 7th. And I feel like time is just repeating itself,
Starting point is 00:19:22 watching all the kids that are younger than us have the same debates that we had on the internet. The idiotic ones, too. I mean, thank God the $200 date one is done. But that's because inflation made it $500. And no one's going on dates because they stay in their basement. So that one won't. But I saw Josh had brought up TikTok as doing Michael Jackson versus Beyonce again.
Starting point is 00:19:41 And which is fine. Even when my generation was having the debate, it was tough because we weren't around for all of Michael. Like we really got introduced to Michael from Free Willy. He was already a superstar. But these young kids didn't even see Beyonce. They know nothing of what they're talking about in this debate. And as much as I am Beehive, it's not a debate.
Starting point is 00:20:00 I think the debate is just the fact that Beyonce is, you know, probably the greatest star of her generation. So you're going to compare her to other great stars of their generations. Michael Jackson, obviously being the greatest star of his generation. I can see with a debate, you know, It's like you got to compare grates to greats. I get that part of it. But let's be very clear.
Starting point is 00:20:22 Michael Jackson, as famous and as popular as he was and is without social media, without things that we have now to kind of like keep up with our favorite celebrities and artists, for him to be that popular and that famous worldwide with no social media, that should put things in perspective for you. Even while he was alive, I could go to any city and guarantee that there would be a Michael Jackson interpret whatever the fuck those people are called. I can walk outside right now. I guarantee there's someone on the corner dressed as Michael dancing for $2 bills.
Starting point is 00:20:55 Impersonator. That's what it is. Yeah. I just feel like no one other than the naked cowboy has more of those than Michael Jackson. Yeah. I mean, maybe down the line, Beyonce will have those, but I just, you know. I mean, listen, she has, she's selling out stadiums and has. Beyonce women.
Starting point is 00:21:13 She's more popular or more famous than Michael Jackson. No, I know that. But I'm just saying she has, you know, women dress like Beyonce and they try to look like Beyonce. Like she has those type of fans as well where people want to look like her. But, I mean, just the scale of what Michael Jackson did when he did it, how he did it, there's nothing. We will, I don't think we'll ever see anything like that again.
Starting point is 00:21:34 I do want to, um, apologize to your generation. Because I'm now seeing as I get older how stupid we did sound like in our teens and in our 20s when we would debate music topics with you guys. Because like the way I watch the kids that are 10 years younger than me talk with such confidence about what the 50 cent movement was like or what the Nelly movement was like makes my fucking blood boil. I need to get it out of my algorithm. The same, not only the same debates, new debates that I never thought would even have to be brought up is with like 50 cent versus Hove on the MC side. But then you look up. You look under the comments, everyone's like, oh, 50, he has one album.
Starting point is 00:22:18 Like, he took over five years, he took an entire era over. Yeah. I just need to get off any internet debate with children. But it's the error, it's the generation. You know, like I sounded crazy to some older heads when I, you know, was watching basketball and I felt like Michael Jordan was the greatest ever. People was bringing up Kareem. People was bringing up Dr. J.
Starting point is 00:22:44 people's and it's like you understand the errors like okay like you know but as we look back it's like okay yeah no I think we got it wrong like that dude was the greatest um this is one with sense at least because I do agree with this jZ never had a year like oh 350 kendrick never had a year like oh 350 gZ never had a year ti never had a year revisionist history I agree the only one closest to that I will say in cover your ears mall Kendrick may have been the only one that had a year like 0350 of last year. Yeah. Other than that, no.
Starting point is 00:23:19 It was never a time. It was the biggest dominance I had ever seen in hip hop as far as a moment. I think Cardi needs to be up there. Cartier. Yeah. Nobody's ever had a year like Cardi. First album? 2018 or 17 Cardi, I think.
Starting point is 00:23:37 Yeah. You're not wrong, but even I'm saying also just like dominance of everything. like video games, clothes, brand deals. Like, I'm not taking anything like part of that year. But like 50 legitimately took over the world. No, he, his wave was, um, his impact on when he dropped. And it's funny because, you know, 50, you know, people, some people, that's when they first learned about 50 when his album came up.
Starting point is 00:24:05 Like, people didn't know what 50 was doing on the mixtape scene before that. You know, I mean, versus he had, you know, it was so it was, it was, it was dope to kind of follow 50 from that and see that moment happen because it's like, okay, it happened for him. He took off. He's a megastar. But, you know, don't get it twisted. 50 had his years of grinding and, you know, you know, beefing, you know, I guess you could call it clout chasing that where he was dissing people. And, you know, that's the things that 50 was doing to get his name out there.
Starting point is 00:24:34 Yeah. How to Rob was, you know, the epitome of I'm just going at, I'm just going at any and everybody because I'm trying to get my shit off. See, yes, I guess by definition would definitely be clout chasing. Shout out the D-D-D. But for sure. Here's the difference I feel like with 50 clout chasing and nowadays clout chasing. 50 knew. 50 was really talented.
Starting point is 00:24:57 That plus he knew what he was getting into and was down to beef with anybody for real. Like these kids clout chase from inside their house knowing that they don't have to run into any of these people. 50 picks some of the most dangerous human beings on planet Earth. and was like, I'm outside right now. Yeah. And no, it was a different. That's, I don't know if it's stupid, but it worked. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:18 I don't know if that's clout chasing. No I'm saying. This era would call that cloud chasing. Yeah. But 50 was, he was just being himself. You know what I mean? He was like, fuck it. I'll go at all of y'all.
Starting point is 00:25:27 If y'all want to fight, we could do that. Yeah. Like, you know, he was just his energy, the bully energy that he came in with was valid. Because if you know 50, you know that he didn't have no problem, scrapping, fighting, shooting, whatever you, however you wanted to do it. he was going to make sure that he became who he is today. While we're on music, I mean, if you're listening to this now, J.I.D. God Does Like Ugly's Out right now. I cannot wait to hear that album.
Starting point is 00:25:54 I wonder how Conway feels about that title. Conway's is... Conway dropped out on God Don't Like Ugly. Yeah. Okay. I thought it was maybe God does like Ugly. Then that would have been a real, like like an actual word. But I'm sure he doesn't feel any type of way. Because it's a flip on a a saying that's been around forever. No, no, no, for sure. I get that.
Starting point is 00:26:14 But, you know, I mean, I'm just trying to start rap before. All right, well, then throw, this is my white podcast today, throw Atmosphericia in the mix. He has an album called that. Yeah, but Atmosphere is not J-I-D. Like, it's a difference.
Starting point is 00:26:28 It's just love. I don't do that. I wasn't like the biggest slug atmosphere fan per se, but he did do a lot for Sad White's. Okay. Like they, yeah. I mean, he needs to be in the mix.
Starting point is 00:26:39 It's like Prince and then him, as far as that state. Everybody says it's Prince and then. Everybody. That's not the first time that's been said. The way they're having the Michael Jackson Beyonce debate is the same Prince versus Slug in Minnesota.
Starting point is 00:26:54 Yeah, for sure. I'm looking forward to the J.I.D. project, though. I want to hear what he did. He had the music. He's, um, wait, this is not, this is. This is the album. This is the audible? No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:27:04 He put that EP out when, um, in a wide one. This is the, okay. It's the album, album. Got it. Like I said last episode, a bunch of people have heard it and are tweeting about it. They say it's incredible. I'm super excited. And to make it all about me, it'll add to my 2025 prediction list where you guys have to buy me daisies.
Starting point is 00:27:24 I'm going with daisies now. Why? What did you say? I said Clips and J.I.D. will have a rap album of year. So far, I'm doing, I'm one for one there. And I have a lot of confidence in my guy, Jed. I think it's going to be a great album, mainly because he told Eminem.
Starting point is 00:27:41 I'm sorry. So it's got to be. You got to have some shit on it. But you're changing stuff just to fit your narrative because you just said that you were thinking Alfredo 2 was going to be one of them of the best albums of the year. No, because I didn't even know Alfredo 2 was going to. No, I'm not talking about. I didn't predict that Alfredo 2 was, he announced it like a week before it came up.
Starting point is 00:27:59 I'm not talking about your predictions. I'm talking about when the album came out. You said I might like this more than a clips album. This might be better than the clips album. Didn't he say that? Yeah, but time has to go until the end of the year. I don't make my. album of the year
Starting point is 00:28:11 confident definitely unless we're in December. But I think right now it's pretty safe to say that the Clips is a candidate for rap album of the year. No, I agree. But I was just going off
Starting point is 00:28:23 what you said that And I'm not sure. I do go back to Clips more since Alfredo 2 has dropped. I've been Alfredo 2's been getting a lot of burn. It's actually really just been
Starting point is 00:28:34 flipping back and forth with them but Clips has been out longer and I still have not taken it out of rotation. It's like the first thing I think when I get in the car I'm like, let me just put this fucking clips out of mine. That's really just what I think. I'm here to give Rory his flowers because he was right about me
Starting point is 00:28:49 liking Freddie Gibbs if I was to give him a chance. So here are your flowers. You listen to the album? I did. That was your first time listening to a Freddie Gibbs album? Yes. Alfredo 2? Yes.
Starting point is 00:29:02 Welcome. Which I'm excited for you because now that you like Alfredo too, you just go through his whole catalog. There's even better shit. I really like Mar-a-Lago. Yeah, record's fire. But, yeah. I was trying to tell you he's like us.
Starting point is 00:29:17 He's a piece of shit like us. And you would relate to the music. Like us. Like you. Like you, don't put me on your piece of shit list. My bad. My bad. I know.
Starting point is 00:29:24 I like Mar-a-Lago, lemon pepper, steppers. Yeah, I hate when people try to rebrand. It's a whole rebrand. I totally people. Yeah. What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Yo, I don't know what you.
Starting point is 00:29:35 Yo, chill, yo. Like, real talk. I said I wasn't a piece of shit. Yo, just chill, though. Like, just chill. Just chill, like, just because I said I wasn't a piece of shit. No, fuck it. Like, what's up?
Starting point is 00:29:45 Like, just because I said I wasn't a piece of shit. When you start elevating, then you start trying to be a better woman. You see? You see how I'm trying to be a better woman around me. Like, still be a piece of shit around me. Yeah, I don't like that shit. Yeah, you're trying to change your way. I've always been a great woman.
Starting point is 00:30:00 Great. I don't know about great. You've been a good woman. You got some piece of shit ways about you, though. Listen, well, I elevated it to great. I went from good to great. I respect it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:10 I ain't mad at that. So it's just that one week where therapy goes good or you're having a healthy situation ship that you think that. You'll be back. You'll be back. We'll keep the seat. It'll be warm right here. We'll keep the seat warm for you.
Starting point is 00:30:26 You'll be back. I was like, that's one of my favorite scenes of the sopranos when Janice is like trying to become a better person and she has on her positive vibe shit. And Tony's getting tight because she's like becoming a better person and not a piece of shit like him. So it just starts talk about all the people she fucked at a Sunday dinner and she freaks the fuck out. That's such a nasty thing to do to your sister.
Starting point is 00:30:48 Just because she's getting over everything and being a good human being, you've got to bring her back down. Nah, be toxic down here with me. Yeah. That's y'all right now being haters. Naming who I fuck that Sunday dinner. That's y'all. Naming who you fucked that Sunday? I've never named who you fucked that Sunday dinner.
Starting point is 00:31:03 Never have I ever done no shit like that. I don't know you guys have been a Sunday dinner together. No, but I've never done. I know what she's saying. never done that to you. Don't paint me. I know I know the metaphor, but I've never done that. I've never, we're not doing that, DeMaris. You know we're not doing that. You saw the video on TikTok of a girl's sister made her a birthday video with all the guys that she slept with. They all were wishing her happy birthday. And it was a long video. And a lot of them were just like
Starting point is 00:31:29 saying happy birthday real quick. And it was like a minute 34. Trust me. And she's filming her on the couch like this, I'm like, yo, that's the most fucked up thing. How diabolical do you have to be to also even like know how to use your powers for good? Like how do you even know how to reach out to all those people and find them and then get them to do that? So I think
Starting point is 00:31:51 that's a funny idea, something me and my group chat will laugh about, but TikTok should have never seen it. TikTok shouldn't see it. No one should see that but us. Like that's funny you're putting a group chat. That's not funny. Like do you do that at the birth? Like, is she obviously she's in a relationship now? Oh, God, I hope not.
Starting point is 00:32:07 Yeah, like, how does the- That's crazy. Now, she can't be insane if she was in a relationship. Because you know, like, her boyfriend probably be there for a birthday. Or her boyfriend was the last guy in the video. Good guy. How do you think she pitched that to people?
Starting point is 00:32:21 Because there's no way out of that lengthy video, I'm not judging the girl, but that your sister would know every random person that you... Or just the month she knew. Like, it could be more. It's a sister. A sister probably told her guy she was dating,
Starting point is 00:32:34 gosh, she had hooked up with it. Are you doing that? Because a girl I slept with sister DMs me with that. pitch I know I would hold it down by you I never beat if my sister tried to get a video all the girls I slept with it'd be like roots oh no I say yo I I hey I'm gonna be what happen I'm just saying it's roots and then it's me that's what I'm saying I did in fact send that the Jackson story on from B's wrong you think I bring that shit in
Starting point is 00:33:00 part that shit three weeks yeah and the new edition shit on BET that's my shit and I guess I shouldn't tell you that I did send the video to your sister and it's already in the work. Oh, God. Jesus. We're working against the clock, but yeah. Sorry. We're trying. You said happy birthday mall? Hmm? Oh. DeMaris, stop.
Starting point is 00:33:18 This is how she get cursed out. This is how she get cursed out. And I'm trying not to. Like, I'm trying not to. I send the video I'm talking about. Oh, okay. To a sister so we could work on a video. Oh, okay. Four mall's birthday.
Starting point is 00:33:32 Okay. Of all the women they slept with, which is three. Two and one. Set him up like that. 21 said him up like that. She definitely wouldn't. No way. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:33:42 I think she would never. It was all seven years ago. That's why it's tough to find everyone. All seven years ago. I'm holding it down. I'm really telling that sister like, no, I didn't even be. I'm not making that video.
Starting point is 00:33:53 I'm not making it. That would be, I think the guys are just as sick. And all of those guys agreed, which means she has a weird type. Like, that's a nasty. No, but do the guys know that that's what the video was for? They just like, yo, wish her happy birthday.
Starting point is 00:34:04 Probably just like, hey, I'm putting together a lot. Yeah, happy birthday video. Say happy birthday. Well, I think most people have had sex with a person that they never really spoke to again. Or it was a very quick, quick. Why the fuck is somebody reaching out to me to say happy birthday to you? I'm having so many, so many questions on that. I think you're overthinking it.
Starting point is 00:34:27 If someone reached out to you was like, hey, I'm doing a birthday video, da-da-da-da. Like, you know, everybody's just- They got to know that you're still like was cool, though. Like, y'all had like a cool. Oh, no. In the video, the girl was like, ew. Oh my God. Like she was definitely pissed at a few of people that were in there.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Oh, of course. There was some people with something in there that she definitely didn't ever want to hear a happy birthday from again. What was fucked up is when the girl went on the couch and was like, oh my God, it's gross. She then panned to the fucking screen and showed the guy. I was like, damn, this guy, now this guy has to see this? Yeah. It's all right. It's all right to know that women don't want you wishing him happy birthday.
Starting point is 00:34:57 No, she was saying, ew, I can't believe I had sex with that person. It wasn't ill his happy birthday wish didn't hit. It was ill. Yeah. Sometimes you're going to be ill. Sometimes you're going to be ill. I'm sure I've been ill. Oh, absolutely, for sure.
Starting point is 00:35:13 How do you think, forget the birthday thing. Let's say since we were being deep and philosophical about the time and everything, let's say you die and, like, you just get to see all the people that you slept with. Like, that's part of your flashback of your whole life. Like, how are you going to feel? I hope that doesn't happen. I don't feel like I'm in hell. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:33 I'm like, damn, I'm on my way down. Yeah. God wouldn't do this. Yeah, God wouldn't do this. This ain't God's work. God does like ugly. Like, what was it? Ghosted girlfriend passed, like when he has that one dream shit where he's with all the
Starting point is 00:35:49 chicks that he slept with and like he gets backstories of like who is related. Ugh. There'd be so. I would, I would probably think I should probably go to hell. Yeah, I totally get it. I see where the decision is here. No, man. Send me to heaven.
Starting point is 00:36:07 I ain't going to hell for these women in their sins. God forgave me for mine. Ma, you think you're going to heaven? Absolutely. Peage scoffed. No, that's a lot of question. Yeah, he scoffed at the question, baby D. Not at the answer.
Starting point is 00:36:22 Like, yeah, absolutely. Roy, you think you're going to heaven? Y'all are very confident. I'm definitely going to heaven. Definitely. And if I, for some reason, I'm not. Like, I'm talking, I know somebody. I know somebody.
Starting point is 00:36:34 I'm getting into heaven. My nigga, it's not due. I know somebody. I know somebody. I'm getting into heaven. But now, see, this is where I don't think that's going to work for you because you refuse to ever hit anybody up for like a favor. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:45 Or like, you know, I'm not asking nobody for tickets, like that type of thing. So I feel like you'd be stubborn like in, what's the shit that the Catholic Church made up? Yeah, limbo, purgatory. I think you just be standing outside of purgatory like this. I'm not about to ask. I'm not going to ask. No. Ticket.
Starting point is 00:37:01 If they don't want me in the pearly gays, I ain't going on Pearly gays. It depends on who at the door. It depends on who doing the door. Abraham. No, fuck wait. Lincoln. I'm getting that. Lincoln?
Starting point is 00:37:13 You're high, man. He's tall. He'd make a good bouncer. He said Lincoln? No, man. Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln is at the pearly, like at the gate? You think actual Abraham is waiting at the pearly gates? Like, he got this shit to do.
Starting point is 00:37:34 No, it's his party, though. Somebody at the gate. Like, is they crew? Whoever at the gate, I'm good. Trust me. It's all, it's going to be all the figures of each religion. It's like it'll be religious paloza. Like it's all their whole. I'm going to see somebody through the gate. I'm like, not small. Like, you know, he would us. I mean. Who do you think you us? Somebody. Somebody going to be in that out. And you just killed them
Starting point is 00:37:56 off in this story. Like they all they're also. No, many, somebody that's already dead. Like I'm going to see them outside smoking a cigarette. I'm going to see them through the gate. Yeah. Like, he's tripping. You know, you're trying to send me back. I ain't going down there. You know, no, he with us. He, he on the list. And then somebody just going to, you just going to hear a TV flick on and it's just going to be podcast clips rolling. It's all right, though.
Starting point is 00:38:19 If podcast clips get you to hell, hell's going to be packed. Yeah. There's no fucking, it'd be like that down there. It'd be like that down there. Unlike y'all, I'm a Catholic. So I just have to like, be like, yo, my bad. And I'm cool. That's really all I have to do to get to heaven.
Starting point is 00:38:35 You say, you're bad? Yeah, my bad. I say that every night. I know I'm going to heaven. I was tripping. Yeah. So I'm not only one worried I might be going to hell. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:44 I think you definitely going to hell, though. Definitely is crazy. Because I just know you just did some shit in your past that just unforgivable. No. I've never done anything unforgivable. I could be forgiven. According to who? Because if I ask.
Starting point is 00:38:58 The Old Testament or the new testament? If I ask the victim, I'm sure they'd say different. The victim is crazy. Well, some victims aren't here anymore. Maybe he definitely got victims. Okay. But some victims aren't here anymore So they couldn't really
Starting point is 00:39:11 You couldn't really ask them I didn't kill them I didn't kill them But they're just not here I know what I'm saying But you would be at the place That they would be at They could go to the door
Starting point is 00:39:20 And be like no no no She's not good No I ain't really nah I feel like I don't know I just sometimes I feel that Some of the ways that we live Even though we may be good people inside
Starting point is 00:39:32 Some of the ways that we live Are a little selfish I don't think God be fucking with it sometimes how does it feel going to the funeral of somebody you were like with in a relationship what yeah um i mean i don't i can't say it stings more or less it stinks it stinks it depends it depends how much you love the person i always thought about that yeah like you were in a relationship at the time that they passed like you're in the front room oh either okay Yeah, only that I'm aware of one girl I said with that passed, but I didn't go to the funeral because we weren't close.
Starting point is 00:40:13 Yeah, like two girls. I saw it on Facebook. Two girls that I dated passed and I didn't go to the funerals. Well, the funerals were out of town. Then I wasn't, one of them I didn't even know about until after she passed away. But I always, how long after? Like three weeks. Okay.
Starting point is 00:40:34 Oh, so that funeral happened. Yeah. But I always thought about that. like somebody who's in a relationship with like actually going to their feeling like what is that feeling like yeah it's it's rough i'd be thinking i'm like damn like a dead body don't count no more but yo bryson tiller the vices is out i'm just saying it don't count no more remember i said that how could a podcast clip get you to hell yeah i was immediately proven wrong like immediately proven wrong a dead body is a dead body like it's not it still count

Getting good with the home. Yeah, like, am I getting tickets for Scotch and Tequila demeris combined? Because that's a liability or my name with the tickets. Because my thing is, once I'm sitting, once I'm sitting with Jesus and I'm trying to advocate for baby D for him to let Baby Dien, and he pull up the video of burgers and bottles. Like, like, when I'm posed, what I'm posed to do with that. Amen.

Starting point is 00:43:04 Like, VIP wise. Because I don't know if, like, if I'm going to run into, I think I'll get there. I just don't know if I'm going to, like, run into Jesus and kick it with him. No, but it's not, it's not like kick it with him. It's kind of like, you see him. He gave you the head and not, like, good job. Like, you know, I'm saying. Like, you did good.
Starting point is 00:43:23 You know, you're not kicking it with Jesus. You see the big homie. You're like, head nod. Like, you see the big homie. Like, yo, it's good. Like, I just, like, I don't think I'll be in the same area as Nelson Mandela. Like, that's who I think is going to, like, chop it up with Jesus. I don't even think I'll get ahead.
Starting point is 00:43:37 No, you're going to be with Simply Red in them. It's Simply Red dead? Damn, I just killed Simply Red. I think so. My bad, Simply Red. That's my God, man. I ain't what made your brain go there? What's about Nelson Mandela?

A very quick announcement. Did that not throw y'all off a little bit? I mean, Gunna's been putting up crazy numbers since he's been home. Like, I didn't expect him to just throw something out. I felt like that would have been a longer rollout of how important, you know,
Starting point is 00:45:42 Gunna is to the label music. period right now. Yeah. Because he's doing numbers, numbers, since he got out. Yeah. To just throw some shit out. Gunner's been through a lot, man. He's been through a lot of ups, like, you know, had his moment where it looked like he was

Starting point is 00:47:06 Like around like 12, 1, 2, 3, dumb hours up until like 10. and then after that we're going we're going to mellow down we're going to R&B after 10 p.m. All right, more, you're saying that but there was the rumor which I think is confirmed now that the Vices disc one that comes
Starting point is 00:47:23 out tomorrow is a full rap album. He's putting out too and the first one comes out tomorrow and that's supposed to be a full rap album. Boss Mandilo, Rick Ross, T. Payne, Plows, Bumby Baby Drill like yeah I think
Starting point is 00:47:38 I think there's going to be more of a rap album than Jids is going to be by your midnight standards. All right. Is it just uptempo? And it's wrap on it and Tiller has the hook. And maybe a bridge or is it like Bryson rapping? This is how I know y'all not. Bryson's a rapper.
Starting point is 00:47:57 Bryson wrapped on so much of trapsoil. And he's very good too. Like Rambo, he's rapping, rap. Like, he wrapped on a lot of trapsill. Nobody, I'm not saying Bryson Tiller can't wrap. But just when you tell me he has a disc, he's dropping a double disc and one disc is him all rapping. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:14 With rappers, I'm a little concerned. Now, if it's just him and it's on a record, it's an uptempo and he's, you know, in his melodic rap shit, oh, we know that that's his fadeaway. We know that. But is it that or is he, like, trying to give us bars? Like, Bryson, no, he ain't trying to metaphor you and bar you down. He got flows, he got melodies. But if he on there trying to stand toe to toe with Rick Raw.
Starting point is 00:48:41 I'm going to be a little disappointed. I mean, but what if he does a good job? I don't doubt that Bryson can do that. If it's the melodic brison, where it's like that, it's like, why do you think that he can't rap rap?
Starting point is 00:48:54 That's what I'm asking you. Because Rambo, he's rapping. I'm not saying, I don't, I just don't want that from Bryson Tiller. Why? Give us, give us go, don't go away from the mid-range. He's going to do a second disc, though.
Starting point is 00:49:05 And also, wouldn't you say, like, even where Gunner has even gone, is like full melodic rapping. That's kind of everybody now. So for somebody has a pen like Bryson, yeah, I wouldn't mind him leaning more into the rap shit. No melodic, just straight bar you down like Ross? Everything
Starting point is 00:49:22 for the most part now is melodic outside of the legacy act. That's what I'm saying. If he's doing that, great. I'm saying if he's on it rapping like how Ross rap, Ross don't rap with no melodies. He giving you straight bars. If Bryson is doing that, I'm just you know, it's just kind of like
Starting point is 00:49:38 I'm going in with a little apprehensiveness. like, ah. Did you hear his feature on Keanu the Day's album gone? How long ago was that? It sounds like it was a lot. Two years ago? Two years ago, maybe. One of the best verses of the year.
Starting point is 00:49:53 He's rapping on that, but yes, it is very much melodic. I wanted to use that as an example. If he's saying there's going to be a rap album, I think it'll be even more rap than what that feature was. That was very melodic, but he still has bars. I'm scared. I'm not. I'm not scared, actually.
Starting point is 00:50:08 If it's, if it's melodic, he in his bag. That's his bread and butter. But if it's just Bryson on there, he's trying to bar, bar you down like kiss, I'm gonna be like that. I can't hear him be melodic
Starting point is 00:50:22 with boss man Delo. Why not? Absolutely. I can't hear it. I mean, with Bumby, shit, Pimsy to me was melodic. Bum B's melodic to me. No, but you know the melodic I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:50:37 I know, but shit, PimC was. Yeah, but. I don't know. I'm a little, I thought this was Bryson Tiller going back to, you know, giving us that R&B, that bag.
Starting point is 00:50:50 But I mean, listen, man. Double this. This is just the first one. One thing I will say, Bryson has gained my trust as an artist. I trust him as an artist. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:57 I actually think Bryson is very much underrated with his discography. He got a lot of slack for his follow-up, I think after Trap Soul and mixed reviews on one after that. I think everything he's put out is great. His last album was crazy. I really fuck with Bryson and I don't know where the disconnect has been at least.
Starting point is 00:51:15 I only speak to the social media world, like where people have started to doubt Bryson. Was it because Trapsol was just like the biggest thing ever that year and the only way you can go from there is town? Like, I've never understood why people keep overlooking the quality music that Bryson keeps putting up. Well, I think at this point now, maybe after his second album, but I'm talking about at this point now, I don't think it's that it was because of Trapsol. I think that the people who are really pushing music or paying attention to music right now barely remember Trapsol, like they were younger. Like, I don't think the young kids,
Starting point is 00:51:48 he doesn't mean as much to them in the way as to us. But even like the buildup of him being the next guy, going from Trapsol to then the Khalid and Rihanna record, which I was a timeless record. Like that could play now. It'd be fine. Yeah, but there was a gap between that now. Well, he was setting up to be the guy and then he took a break.
Starting point is 00:52:07 I mean, didn't he get. married or something? Something happened where he like took a break when the was going up. And then he put out an album that just didn't have a single that worked, but I thought it was a dope album. They got to join on there with Drake. That's fire that just for some reason.
Starting point is 00:52:23 I don't know if it was the label not working it, but I don't know. I'm excited for this price and shit and I love that it's a double disc. Do you think he's mad that having plows, T. Payne, is he going the route, the nostalgia route that Metro just went with features like that?
Starting point is 00:52:43 I hope not. From the same era like we're all the same age like that. When I see those two combined, to me that feels like you're trying to do a 2000s thing if you have plows and tea painting
Starting point is 00:52:53 together on your song. Plas. Why you keep saying plows? I don't know why. You're going to do something? Yeah, maybe. Okay. Do you got,
Starting point is 00:53:00 speaking of Metro's album, did you guys like it? No. Huh? No. Is that out of loyalty or like actual Adelaide. They played like four records in here and Pige told me the whole album sounds like that and I was like, I can't listen to that. I understand what he's doing though. They say he wants some music
Starting point is 00:53:16 to go back regional and keep things like if you're from Atlanta, your music should sound like, I respect that. But that sound wasn't, well, yes, it was regional. Don't get me wrong. That's Atlanta all day. But it went everywhere. Yeah, no. And I get that. And that's cool. But I just, listen man everything is just not for me I can't hear that I don't I don't even know where to play that definitely not playing that in the crib
Starting point is 00:53:43 not playing that on the drive like I'm not where am I playing that somebody that's for somebody somebody somebody's gonna love that and play that somewhere at a day party something like you know they're going they're going to have fun with it I'm just saying me
Starting point is 00:53:55 personally I think Metro is dope but I'm just saying that album I can't that music is not for me I mean it was I haven't gotten through the entire thing. And without getting through the entire thing, my point is, did it need to be a double disc? Like, again, I get it.
Starting point is 00:54:14 You're doing the nostalgia shit. This was what I was listening to in high school, into freshman year of college. Like, I love Roscoe Dash. I love Travis Porter. Here in Gucci, they want to have fun. Like, I like that record a lot. Do we need, what is this? 20, 25 records?
Starting point is 00:54:33 of this sound. Like this could have been a really, because Metro does really good EPs, whether we would Sean Quavo. Like he just throws out, he has a high volume. Like he puts out a lot of shit. Do we need this much of this sound?
Starting point is 00:54:48 Like, could it be an E? I don't. I would really appreciate an EP of this type of shit based off my age and the era that this music came out. I can really appreciate it. It's nostalgic to me. Love Waka.
Starting point is 00:54:59 Like all this shit is great, but why 25 fucking songs of this? Yes, for what? It's too much. There's a such thing as too much. For me, again, somebody's going to love it. Somebody's going to be excited to hear that sound again and go back to that time.
Starting point is 00:55:14 You know, I'm more on the side of, you know, give me something more current, give me something that we probably didn't get. You know what I mean, change the sound a little bit. Like, I'm on that side of it. Like, I respect what he did. And I think it makes sense to try to get music back to a place where it's more regional. You represent where you from more instead of, you know, everybody being on social media and try to chase what the wave is. It's like, no, stay in your corner, stay in your pocket, do what you do.
Starting point is 00:55:41 I respect that. I'm just saying not to this extent, 25 tracks of that sound from, what was it, like, 05, Yeah. 06, 04, maybe around there. 0, 06. Yeah, don't take me 20 years back. Don't do that. Like, give me something that we didn't get.
Starting point is 00:55:59 It was like, oh, this is crazy. This is innovative. This is, you know what I'm saying? Give me that before you take it. back 25 tracks of a sound from 20 years ago. I put it, it, it's spent on it a little bit. Like, I like that it was hosted by a DJ too. I went back to that era.
Starting point is 00:56:11 Yeah, I get it. It's very nostalgic. I get it. This is my theory. I can't prove this. Why this is 25 records is because I think, and there's no disrespect to that era, because I love that era. I got pussy for the first time in that era.
Starting point is 00:56:23 Like, it's a special place. It's a special place in my fucking heart. This was, this sound was high school, dances, like, that was our shit. I think Metro found out how fucking easy it was to make those type of beats and that's why we have 25 of them. I think he made every one of these beats. He said, oh my God, with the stuff, the technology we have now,
Starting point is 00:56:46 I could make this beat in five seconds. That's what I think happened. Because Metro, if you go back to his last album and the one with Future as well, like how intricate Metro's beats are incredible. Metro can do this shit when he's taking a shit on the toilet. That's why I think there's so much here because he found out that sound is extremely easy to make in this era. Like, Abel's, they was doing that shit on fruity loops, everything like that. It took some time.
Starting point is 00:57:14 Listen, you could do this shit in five minutes and Ableton. I'm not saying it's bad. Yeah. And Quick doesn't mean bad. But that's why I think Metro had an idea and just kept pumping out like 10 beats a day with this sound because it's so easy to fucking make. Yeah, I'm cool, though. But respect to him. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:57:32 He's obviously one of the most talented producers we have and things like that. But this project is just not for me. That's all. Okay. Well, Maul, you said something about Bryson. Oh, shit. What did I say about Bryson? No, you said something where you said you now trust Bryson as an artist.
Starting point is 00:57:49 So you're willing to listen to anything he does because you trust him as an artist. Outside of the greats, are there anybody that, is there anybody that you can think of that you also trust? as an artist outside of the obvious. Yeah, it's a few Brent. I trust Brent as an artist. But Brent, like Bryson, to me, though, they're one and the same. They're very, like, in their own space, in their own world. You don't really hear much about them on social media.
Starting point is 00:58:17 You don't really see them much until they're ready to put something out. They're not in the headlines doing no crazy shit like that. But then they'll sell out a fucking arena. you know what I'm saying as soon as they decide to have a show you know I'm saying they have that type of following because their catalog is you know everybody goes back to a Brent song or album or Bryson album um there's a few artists that I I trust just to just to know that they know what their core is they always try to create with their core in mind not not not saying that they only want to make music for their core they step out and they
Starting point is 00:58:56 get features from people we wouldn't expect. Like, oh, shit, he got a song with this person. You know, they do that sometimes, but they always keep it, you know, kind of like the sound is the core, like never, never abandon the core, but also expand at the same time and try different shit. So outside of Bryson and Brent, you should, even the clips. I'm not surprised at the album they just put out. if you look at what push has been doing you know what i'm saying over the last couple years he's
Starting point is 00:59:30 been on par has been consistent and sound again core keeping that there but you know playing with different things different features and things like that like you know but don't abandon what we fell in love with don't abandon that but still grow at the same time and and try different shit i just you know once artists do that i don't think it's hard for them to put out of terrible project. In my opinion, or in my, you know, following certain artists, it's like, you know, that sound is there, you know that they're going to stay to their core, but they might give you something like, oh, okay, like, I wasn't expecting him to give us that sound, but he tried something.
Starting point is 01:00:07 I respect that, but don't go all the way left and now you lost us. It's like, all right, fan. Yeah, Brent did really good with that with his last project. Yeah. It was away from the Sondra sound, but it still was. That core was still there, but it was still there. It was still Brent. Definitely trying to do some other shit. Yeah. I would say Ross is probably the closest one to that for me? The greats, all the greats kind of always stay close to their core. Even if there's no rollout or any energy around it,
Starting point is 01:00:31 I know for a fact Rick Ross is going to give me a good album. I just know he's going to pick the beats I like. He's going to wrap the shit I like to hear. That's the other part. I just know that he's going to make good songs. When the artists, you know, they have producer qualities. They have great A&R qualities about themselves.
Starting point is 01:00:48 They could hear music well. They can produce well. You know what I mean? Like when you have artists like that, those are the ones that seem to always kind of laying close to the mark. Like, okay, because they, you know, they know what the fuck they're doing. It's like, I know my sound. I know it's dope. I know my taste level is impeccable.
Starting point is 01:01:06 Like, I know what people want for me. And, you know, that's what you expect from artists that you like. Like, just know what we want. Give us what we want. Surprise us every now and then and give us a curveball. See if we, you know, it connects with us. But don't go too far. you know what I'm saying it's like because now it's like what you're doing man this ain't you
Starting point is 01:01:26 they don't got in your ear and told you oh it's the new wave it's the new sound that don't mean it's your sound that don't mean it's your wave yeah you know what I'm saying that's my thing like you get in the room with certain producers and stuff they're like yo nah everybody doing this that don't mean you need to be doing that word you know what I'm saying just because everybody's doing this that's not what you do you sold out arenas doing this yeah a lot of y'all should leave afro beats alone yeah oh yeah for sure like I get it you know it's not Afro beats, but it's like my Afro beat inspired. It's cool. You don't need to do that.
Starting point is 01:01:55 It's close to that BPM. It's close to that BPM is the new favorite shit. Stay in that BPM right there. Not you, though. We understand what everybody's moving to right now, but that don't mean you need to do that. Yeah. And it's tough because artists, you know, you got to work yourself into that place of being able to turn that down, though. You know what I'm saying? Like you got to, again,
Starting point is 01:02:15 gain the trust from, you know, the label or, you know, just your team and things like that where they know, like okay now that this artist knows what he or she is doing like leave them alone let them create what they're doing and then we have to adjust and kind of do all the you know the tricks around it to get it out to the people i feel like jlo's going to love uh this bryson album because after four failed marriages she's finally choosing herself go for jalo bronx legend another one yeah why is this headline well jalo's she's done with marriage is choosing herself from Noah.
Starting point is 01:02:51 Jalo's relationships, for as long as I remember, I remember, like, from being a kid, the fucking tabloids always report and the news always reporting on J-Lo getting engaged. Like, that's like a core part of pop culture news. So, yeah. No, it's J-Lo. She's been the queen of pop culture. She had her time when she was the queen of pop culture, so. And even when she wasn't, we always just cared about her relationships.
Starting point is 01:03:15 Like, that's like a running pop culture thing. Today she died, we're going to care. So I do care, and I'm happy for her. Did she actually say she's choosing herself or did they just put that in the headline? Like, do we have J-Lo being quoted saying that or a video of her saying that? Probably not. You know what I'm saying? Like, J-Lo probably didn't even say that.
Starting point is 01:03:33 Like, that be the other thing. Yeah, or she posted a selfie and was like, I choose myself. Like, nothing to do with marriages. Oh, yeah. But I don't know. I just don't care. How old is J-Lo? 56?
Starting point is 01:03:47 Mm-hmm. J-Lo looked great. She looks amazing. Jesus Christ Body too She could choose herself And still be with you
Starting point is 01:03:54 I think I think there's a world I think that's what she needs She don't want a Y in I'm a Yian And compared to her No I'm not I'm a YN
Starting point is 01:04:04 compared to JLo Yeah you're like what 12 years younger than her That's not a YN though Okay Someone in their 50s dating someone in their 40s Is not
Starting point is 01:04:13 That's not That's not That's not That's actually pretty common She dated me I mean not The YN part But the age part
Starting point is 01:04:20 but the age part. I think someone has to be in their 20s. Yeah. With J-Lo for that to be the case. No. Okay. Because that, I mean, that would be sick. But I could see J-Lo choosing herself and just, you know,
Starting point is 01:04:31 getting with like a drill rapper. That would never happen. No. Why not? J-Lo ain't doing that. She's going to find someone. Brong's drill has been on the rise. I mean, it's leading the city.
Starting point is 01:04:44 She's still from those. She's still Jenny from the block. She's still from Castle Hill. That's a fact. But, yeah, not. Jaila will be fine. I think she'll find somebody, you know. I just think that it's...
Starting point is 01:04:54 Marriage isn't for everybody. She gotta stop spinning the block. She only did it with Ben, right? But they did that shit like three times. That's her person. Clearly not. You gotta know when to just go look for parking on another block. He ain't no parking spot too.
Starting point is 01:05:10 He's sick because he back fucking with Jennifer Gardner. For real? Yes, he's sick, bro. That nigga is... He's sick. Tremendous actor. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Yes, he's sick, bro.
Starting point is 01:05:23 Ben Affleck is back with Jennifer Garner. I didn't know. It was a picture of him that went viral. Nah, but I don't trust that because those are old pictures that they just be circulating again. Like, I don't believe that. I don't believe Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner back day. But why not? I don't believe that.
Starting point is 01:05:37 He clearly has a history to spend in the block. Did you say the same thing when he got back with J-Lo the 17th time? If Ben Affleck is back with Jennifer Garner, we got to get Ben Affleck some help. Why? He has to get some He loves love. No, and there's nothing wrong with that But you can't keep just going back and forth
Starting point is 01:05:57 Between these two women Why can't you? Nah, he do need to move on from it. Like, there's better out there Once you get out of that loop. Come on, man. Like, I know comfort zone is real And, you know,
Starting point is 01:06:06 your peers around somebody that you kind of feel like You can be yourself with. That's all. We get that. But you also got to be willing to like just meet new people and new experiences and new things, man.
Starting point is 01:06:15 Like, leave these women alone. Let them be happy. I mean, where's, where's Ben going to meet people? Yeah He's not going He's not spending enough time with Duncan's That's the problem
Starting point is 01:06:26 You think he needs to like go in Duncan Not to go and sit Yeah he's not I drive through Yeah he's sitting the drive through too much You got to go in there sit down Yeah I'm meeting people at Duncan Jonas
Starting point is 01:06:36 What's the joke? Well he He's one of them Like an ambassador Oh Yeah Or maybe I don't know Does he have to go
Starting point is 01:06:44 Back to Boston And just find him like a nice racist Irish girl Like maybe that's more his speed I don't know man Someone from Roxbury Yeah he just better not be with Jen Leave Jennifer
Starting point is 01:06:58 Leave both of the Jennifer's alone I think I just started a rumor I don't think he's back Hey I don't think so See that's how fast I think I just started a room Yeah that's how fast happened Ryan Cress listens to this podcast a lot So I'm sure it'll be in the tabloid
Starting point is 01:07:09 Sometimes sometimes you know Sometimes you guys spend the block The undertone to burn it down It's okay But you know Shout out to J-Lo hopefully she finds somebody I think you find people when you're not
Starting point is 01:07:21 looking for somebody it's deep right just don't look for nobody just live life you J-Lo I just feel like humans shouldn't be together at all we gotta get you some help I choose myself
Starting point is 01:07:33 Sirius XM cancels Howard Stern this was big news this is obviously one of the biggest personalities in radio history Sirius XM has canceled Howard Stern wait do they cancel Howard Stern with just his show because that's a difference.
Starting point is 01:07:49 Is Howard Stern canceled or is the show? No, no, no, no, no. Okay. They're not renewing his contract. They're not yet. Okay. They're not renewing his contract. Which is crazy because, I mean, I feel like. That's the house that he built.
Starting point is 01:07:59 Yeah. Howard definitely changed media drastically by taking that serious deal where it was subscription based and, you know, now it's, you can only find it in your rental car. But this is kind of nuts. And I think it's Howard's fault. Howard Stern made his debut on Sirius Satellite Radio, now known as Series XM in 2006. On August 5th, rumors began swirling that the Howard Stern show was getting canceled. Stern's most recent five-year contract is expected to expire at the end of 2025.
Starting point is 01:08:33 So, okay, his contract ended. It's kind of interesting how the theme of the show of time looping and everything coming back to what it was. I mean, I don't think we need to explain to everyone who Howard Stern is or. how insane the Howard Stern Show used to be and how it did change media from a content standpoint as well, dealing with FCC, having porn stars on his show, wild shit happening, cursing them. When he got to serious, it got even crazier because you didn't have to worry about fines. Then he took a hard left, and I'm not saying he did it because the atmosphere was changing amongst people being canceled or crude content
Starting point is 01:09:16 being frowned upon. He could have just became an adult and wanted to stop doing that shit even though he was like 45 when he was fucking with lesbians on a show. He became pretty much the person he hated as far as his very PC one-on-one uninteresting interviews.
Starting point is 01:09:33 And he was at one point one of the greatest interviewers of all time. He definitely leaned into what I think Colbert did as well of accepting that we now need to be the very PC people straight edge go to whatever the beat of this party is telling us to do and I think it's suffered and now media has came right back to what Howard Stern started.
Starting point is 01:09:58 It's a shit show of a bunch of nonsense where Howard could thrive because he invented this. And he didn't stick to who he was and became a different human being and now media is back to what he was. Like Howard could kill as an old fuck right now in the stuff that he invented because that's what everyone is now doing on Rumble. Like this is his fault for he should have never listened to the higher ups of what he needed to do. That's fault.
Starting point is 01:10:29 See, that's why it's always, it's always just best to just be who you are no matter what because then you end up in a situation like this where you try to change. And I'm changing who you are and things about you is always positive. I don't want to make it seem like change is not good. But when you go away from your formula and, you know, your recipe of what you've built, and then it doesn't work out. And then now, you know, they don't renew your contract. Not saying, you know, Howard Stern is he's well off. He's fine.
Starting point is 01:11:01 He's not hurting for no money. He doesn't. He's not $500 million. Yeah. That doesn't mean, you know, he doesn't, it's not a money thing with him. But it has to be. something in him where he's you know in his home like I should have just went with my who I am and just stayed yeah same with that content not given to the pressures of you know being PC
Starting point is 01:11:23 and doing this and we can't say this and can't say that I say it to y'all all the time nobody really gives a fuck it's and again we don't know him he really could have just grown up and been like I'm tired of doing that loose up but you left your whole audience and I'm so I was not one of his audience, but I... But you recognize his audience? Of course. Like, no, it was legendary, Howard Stern's show. The people, especially even when he went to serious, people were purchasing that package because they were fucking truck drivers, they were fucking plumbers.
Starting point is 01:11:52 Like, his core base that loved that, and I'm not even saying like anything racist or anything, like, just, just lewd content shit that you talk about with your friends in now the group chat. Howard Stern was originally the group chat. The shit that we all think. He felt like he was talking to a guy you fucking knew. He did that. So when you now completely go to like just giving very weird straight interviews to Hillary Clinton that you clearly have a sheet of what you're supposed to ask, you've lost your base.
Starting point is 01:12:20 And then you just leaned into that thinking that would be the way the world is going now. And no, your fan base in Long Island left you. And listen, Howard maybe probably just wanted to retire too. That could be it. this could be a serious press release of like oh we didn't renew Howard could have been like I wasn't renewing yeah he could have just wanted to finally retire
Starting point is 01:12:42 I'm honestly speculating I don't want to put anything on anyone just my point of view of someone that's watched Howard Stern since I was a child like I can't remember a time where Howard Stern was not around yeah I don't know I mean it's it's the NMA era he's definitely said some insane shit done some fucked up shit I'm not here to co-sign anything Howard Stern said but I see why Serious
Starting point is 01:13:05 went from being the innovators in that world by getting Howard to now seeing that the world is not as BC as they once thought it was. I keep trying to tell y'all. Nobody cares. I'll be saying, don't we can't say that.
Starting point is 01:13:21 Yes, the fuck you can. Because somebody's saying it somewhere. Be yourself. But shout out to the legend Howard Stern though. That's the before y'all error. Y'all don't really know about. Early Howard Stern, y'all wasn't there.
Starting point is 01:13:34 It was like the wildest shit. Yeah, y'all wasn't there when Beetlejuice first stepped in the studio, y'all wasn't there. When Beetlejuice was first, I'm talking about the first thing. Y'all wasn't there. When Beetlejuice on Howard Stern. Y'all were not there at that time. That was, yo. Like, dude, like, I'm telling you.
Starting point is 01:13:52 Yo. Beal Juice being on there was one of the craziest things. Also, like, just, because my, you know, my pops, I remember my pops even getting the serious, like, it came in a box. and like you had to connect it to your car. Because like my dad was such an Artie Lang fan, like Jersey guy. Like so much of the comedian shit.
Starting point is 01:14:12 And even when it went to Opie and Anthony on Sirius, which I think, you know, is why we have Rogan now and most of the stand-up comedy world. That all derived from Howard. Like all the comedy shit I loved growing up derived from Howard's stuff because my dad would have that shit.
Starting point is 01:14:26 But, you know, he would bring... Yo, do you remember the days when he would bring drunk-ass Henry Hill on his show? Absolutely. Yeah. No, we would like count down to wait for that. I used to watch that. Like, I would watch that on TV, like the Howard Stern show.
Starting point is 01:14:42 Like, I would watch that shit. Yeah. Absolute legend, though. And shout out to Robin for probably having the most patience of any human being. Absolutely. In the history of the United States. A major, major part of Howard Stern. Hell you know.
Starting point is 01:14:53 Robin was the only one to, like, reel in everything and make sure the show continue to go. Yes. The greatest, the greatest HR, PR, PR, and the fucking. in history of radio. Shout out to Robin. She was like a mom. The way she would even like say Howard's name to stop him from doing Howard. And like he would know the way your mom says your name that you're like, oh, I'm wilding.
Starting point is 01:15:15 I'm wilding right now. But yeah. I mean, that was the time. Live golf this weekend will be in Chicago. Tell you. Deep dishes and five irons. I cannot wait with two events left. Joaquin Neiman sits atop of the leaderboard.
Starting point is 01:15:35 Told you. You did actually say, I actually have to give you your flowers. You did say that. He said five wins in 2025, which is crazy. But John Ram has the opportunity to secure the live golf individual title for the second straight year. He's right behind Joaquin. I mean, I don't know, you called him all.
Starting point is 01:15:50 So I think I'm kind of going to go with what you say on this one. I think Joaquin is going. I think he finishes. That's your guy? I think so. I mean, I picked them early. If the deep dish doesn't take him down. I picked, I picked them early.
Starting point is 01:16:01 So we're going to see what happens. There's still several players at the bottom of the standings. and they can fight their way back into regulation. But I mean, if they don't, it's over. But I don't know. We could have a Cinderella story. But I like that. Get to play for your spot back in the league.
Starting point is 01:16:15 Yeah. I like that. Yeah. Who has next on the court? Yeah. You got a fight. I like it. I can't miss experience.
Starting point is 01:16:20 Grab your tickets at livegolf.com. That's L-I-V-Golf.com. Or if you can't make it this time, you can follow every shot live and exclusively on Fox Sports. All right. Do we have voicemails? We do. Okay. These are sponsored by Boost.
Starting point is 01:16:40 You've got mail Hi, what's good y'all I didn't necessarily need advice I just wanted to get you guys thoughts about something So my question is what do you guys consider A real red flag About the family dynamic of somebody that you're dating That would make you reconsider being with them
Starting point is 01:16:56 So I don't mean like obvious shit Like violence in a house or like extremely dysfunctional type Now just mean like for example Let's say you dating a girl You know what I'm saying? She brings you home And you see that her mom is like Low-key disrespectful to her dad in front of company You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:17:11 Or Baby D. Let's say you're dating. A guy, you see that him and his mom are like toxicically close to the point that she treats him like her husband, like shit like that. Like what do you guys consider like a red flag about somebody's family that would make you like think twice about seriously dating them? A red flag about somebody's family that would make you think twice about dating them. My number one is if the mother walk around the house like she a guess like if she's timid to be in her own house. She don't speak up, mother real quiet, she don't speak up, she don't laugh, she don't get, mm-mm, mm-mm, I don't fuck with it.
Starting point is 01:17:49 That means you can't date her son? Because she's a timid lady in her house? What's the, but why, though? I don't like dating men who don't have strong mothers. It's nothing wrong with it. If your mother is, you know, weaker or meeker, then that's you. But, you thought a woman with them. But mild-mannered and more, you know, laid-back, doesn't
Starting point is 01:18:11 mean weak, though. I didn't say mild manner than lay back. I said meek. But something... Her husband say something to her and she shrivel? Mm-mm. Okay, all right. I see that. But some things are cultural, especially if you have someone in a guest in your house that you don't like know like that. There's cultural things where she'd be a little bit more quiet. That's fine. It's not like, I've been in that situation when I've met a girl's mom and she's like first generation and it's some foreign. shit. But, you know, once you get to know, they start cutting loose. But that's also how they
Starting point is 01:18:45 present themselves in a very polite way when you have a guest in the house. Yeah, I never said anything about being polite. I never said anything about being polite. I'm talking about people that when their husband speaks up, they shrivel, they're quiet, they're timid, they're meek. Those were the words that I used. But speak up, speak up in regards to what, though. What is the, what's the context? If the lady looked like when guests ain't there, she getting slapped around the house, I don't bait men like that's what I'm talking about. I thought I was clear on that. Okay.
Starting point is 01:19:11 Yeah, I don't, I'm cool. I also just tend to not date men who have very quiet mothers anyway, even if that is just her personality and there's no, like, fear behind it. This is because you're not quiet? Yeah. Men tend to think that men tend to seek out their mothers when dating, not always, but it happens. And that ain't me. So I like men who are used to strong, like women with strong personalities.
Starting point is 01:19:36 I don't want to have to be the first strong personality you encounter. I feel like that's one of those therapy psychological ones that you can't prove, that you seek out somebody like your mother. I don't think that's true. When they like their mothers, Rory. When people like their mothers. I like my mom. I didn't say you didn't. Listen, man.
Starting point is 01:19:58 Maybe you shouldn't date the guy that doesn't have the timid mother. The mother that should stop overstepping and being so goddamn loud. It doesn't result great either. No. I don't know, but that's just that's just me. That's a red flag or something I pay attention to. But yeah, if you're over. But how long into that and outside of like, obviously if you feel like there's abuse in the house, but like even watching my mom around Pige, which I'm not trying to date Pige, I mean, I think you're a great guy, but we work together. We work together. Great eyes. Yeah, I just don't. Great eyes. Yeah. Like the representative my mom puts up in front of people she meets like is comical to me sometimes. Like you are nothing. Like you are nothing. like you are nothing like this why I think people also but culturally put up a front in front of other people when they first meet them or even start to spend time around them because they think that's what you're supposed to do but you also get different yeah you like your mom your mom is going to be different with your friends than she is with you that's just a a regular thing yeah
Starting point is 01:21:03 she's going to be that's just a you know a parent thing like they're going to talk to your friends and be more welcome and things like that. And you like, you don't let people eat in the living room. Like, if I was trying to eat this living room when nobody was here, I'd get cursed to fuck out. Yeah, but, and I agree. But he's talking about a relationship dynamic. If you're in a relationship with somebody long enough, there's only so much pretending
Starting point is 01:21:24 a person can do unless they're a psychopath. Like, eventually you're going to get to know the real parents of family. You'll see the family dynamic. Oh, I mean, even like with Kia when she first met my mom. And I don't, I'm not. shitting on my mom. My mom is a good person. Sweet lady. She is. I'm not... Sweet lady. But some of the stuff I
Starting point is 01:21:44 talked to Keith about prior, she, you know, after the few times hanging my mom, she's like, I don't get it. And then it was like a month in. I didn't even know what the situation was. Key was just like, I get it. I get it now. Yeah. So yeah. Demaris is right. Time will definitely
Starting point is 01:22:00 start to reveal everything when it comes to family shit. Yeah. But... I've definitely noticed in dating women Like if they're the only child, it could be a little tricky. So we're just going to shit on me throughout the entire time. Yeah, it's a shit on you day. You didn't know what today was?
Starting point is 01:22:18 Fuck with Dre-Day. Everybody's celebrating. Yeah, everybody having fun. But I have noticed that, like, if a woman is the only child, it's a little, or if she doesn't have, like, if she has a terrible relationship with a dad, you definitely going to experience some turbulence. Only children weird as fuck, bro. That's a fact. And I do agree. It takes a... Takes a village. A type of person to date an only child.
Starting point is 01:22:46 Because every girl that's dated me is dated an only child. That's just how math works. And I've seen throughout, like, how it was weird, the more relationships I had. I was like, oh, yeah, I need to be by myself and people think I don't like them. And neither here nor there. But you're a different only child, though. Like, you're not as selfish. I was in a community. Like I was always around people constantly. Like everyone was, there was so many people in my house.
Starting point is 01:23:13 Like, it was never really like, I never felt that much like an only child as a kid. Because there was just so many people around. Yeah. But I still have those same tendencies, though, of leave me the fuck alone.
Starting point is 01:23:24 And I need to be by myself. And it's not a you thing. I just need my time, which can be very weird to somebody that doesn't understand that. I had the cheat, I had the cheat code though growing up with a twin, like a girl.
Starting point is 01:23:35 Mm-hmm. Because now I know, like I can I can comfortably live with a woman because it's easy living with women when you grew up with a woman you just gotta just not to be invisible
Starting point is 01:23:45 yeah whatever you use clean up behind yourself da-da-da keep space clean knowing you know you sense like attitude swings just leave the house don't even say nothing just go just just let you know
Starting point is 01:23:59 just to yourself like I know I know what this is space your phone ring where you at no no way I'm at me now. You were just sitting there ready to curse me out an hour and a half ago for the fucking the TV was too loud. Like, all right, the TV, the game is on. You want me to listen to shit what dog is? Yeah. Yeah. All right. I'll be outside. Yeah. Um, all right, well, you guys are are saying that now. I think in your 30s or 40s, like, if you worked on yourself,
Starting point is 01:24:27 red flags of your family maybe don't matter. Like, you know, yeah, you work on yourself. This is the multiple, this is you've said that before. Yes, they do. Like, like, like, sometimes, Like, I think, you can look at my family and you can have all the red flags pop up in your head. But if, obviously, I know my family and I've done working myself to where I'm like, I'm nothing like my family. Yeah. I think that's a thing that you should give people grace if they've done that. Of course, no matter who your family is, it's trickled down and made you who you are, no matter what. But you can still work on yourself and not be the red flags of your family.
Starting point is 01:24:57 It's not even about you being the red flags of your family. I don't even think that's what he's in reference to like, oh, this was happening in his household. So this is how he is. I don't even think it has anything to do with that. When you're marrying someone and God forbid you have a kid with someone, y'all are family. That is now your family. You now have to deal with that family dynamic.
Starting point is 01:25:16 You could be perfect. It doesn't matter. I still have to deal with your mama, your father, your brothers, your sisters. Not if you don't want to. Yeah. I know plenty of people that don't deal with their spouse's family at all. But even that's a red flag. I couldn't be with somebody who does not have,
Starting point is 01:25:28 where I can't have a relationship and they can't have a relationship with their family. I don't want that type of marriage. But if they tried and it's just like, yo. Even still, I don't want. that. I know what you're saying. You don't want that. You want your family and your spouse to kind of intertwine and be one. I get that. Everybody wants that. But some people have families that's just like, yo, like your family be tripping. Yeah. And they know it. They're like, oh, I know. They're like, okay, cool. So, yeah, I'm not going to the cookout. I'm not going to the Terrance Grove for
Starting point is 01:25:56 a fight at your dad's house. I'm not going to. I'm not going to watch game seven. Like, no, I'm just not. I'll stay home. Yeah, but see. Yeah. Me personally, that's a red flag to me because I want someone who's close with their family for my children. I want my children to have that. You want big family. Well, you come from a big family. Yeah. And I want my kids to have that on their father's side too. So more, most importantly on their father's side, because my parents don't babysit. Somebody mama, somebody mama got to watch the baby. That's a red flag. When she said her parents don't babysit? It should be. Red flag. It should be. Why your, why your parents don't want to watch their grandkids? Because they're older. I have really old parents. By the time I
Starting point is 01:26:31 have a kid, my mother would be well into her 70s. She don't need to be watching no newborn. Yeah, that's grandbab. That's what grandma's there for. She's great. She gang gang. Yeah. 70s. Stay home.
Starting point is 01:26:42 Just watch feed. Eat. Change the diaper. A 72 year old can't watch no toddler. Toddlers? These toddlers? Climbing off shit. She can't catch you.
Starting point is 01:26:52 She can't. No. No, y'all don't got to. Grandma could watch the toddler. I hear that. But I just don't think, I totally understand what you're saying. And I think anyone's allowed to want what type of lifestyle they have their kids, they want a big family. I just don't think that should be a defining factor if you have
Starting point is 01:27:10 somebody that you want to be with and have children with. Like just because that part isn't there, they can still be a good person with no red flags. It's just, well, we have to stay away from that part of the family. Yeah. They're just not invited to Christmas. That's all. And you'll also notice with when you have kids, you want to start your own traditions and your own shit because like you said, that's your family now. And that's not going to work with a lot of your family because they have their own families. So you'll start to realize that shit does separate
Starting point is 01:27:41 as you age and have kids. You sat tomorrow down and told her the real story for Thanksgiving? Yeah. We saved the Indians. That's what they were... The Indians. They were called Indians.
Starting point is 01:27:54 A man named John Smith showed up on a boat. There was a beautiful woman in Pocahontas. And the Indians were being very irrational. about the entire thing. Like, it was super, like dramatic.
Starting point is 01:28:07 Like, you know, get over it. Yeah. Um, and then, um, we did something really kind.
Starting point is 01:28:12 We gave them all blankets. Yeah. Because it's cold. Absolutely. And something happened with the manufacturing of those blankets. And there was like a disease on them. Yeah. Which wasn't.
Starting point is 01:28:22 It's crazy how that happened. Right. And then, you know, there was a war. Mm. And we get, we brought the French in.
Starting point is 01:28:29 And then they became our friends after we, we murdered everybody. Yeah. And, you know, now they have casinos. There you go. Beautiful story. Such an American tale. That's not the story of Thanksgiving.
Starting point is 01:28:42 No, that is. If it wasn't, it is now. At my table, it will be. Oh, very accurate. Yeah. At my table, that's the story. That's such a sick holiday. Insane.
Starting point is 01:28:56 Anyways, we have another voice, Mo. Hey, guys. This is Chris from LA. And this question is for everybody. I was thinking if you guys had any future political aspirations, not necessarily president, but maybe a congressman or something. No, pause, pause, pause, pause. Does he listen? The funniest part about this.
Starting point is 01:29:19 One, do you have political aspirations? It was a hilarious question to start with. But then to double down like, I'm not like thinking president. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like don't shoot for the start. I wasn't thinking that either, sir. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Never thought about it.
Starting point is 01:29:31 When you said that angle, no, president. Yeah. Go ahead. I've been thinking if Big Donnie could get into office. Same thing. At least become like a local city councilman or something. And I thought I proposed a question to you guys as well. Thanks, guys.
Starting point is 01:29:49 I mean, if Donald Trump can do it with the empire that his family was in the real estate business before he was even born and inherited his riches and owned the entire borough of Manhattan at one point. Yeah, no, it's the same as me at all. The story's the same. Yeah, same beginnings. Yeah. Same origin. If Donald can do it, we can do it. Well, if Eric Adams could become mayor of New York City.
Starting point is 01:30:16 I'm not saying we couldn't become mayor in New York City. Literally anybody can. I think, yeah, I think that I could definitely be mayor of New York City. The candidates that we have had, yes. I fully believe that. 100%. I've rode the D train, the A train, the four train, the C trains enough. I know the city.
Starting point is 01:30:32 That's all it takes, right? So you just got to know the cities. You got to know every pothole in the streets You know what I'm saying? There's a lot Yeah But you know them You know certain blocks you draw
Starting point is 01:30:40 You know that pothole that That will fuck this Been there for 30 years Exactly Yeah you gotta know The pot holes Gotta know the pot holes Gotta know you know

Starting point is 01:30:55 Yeah you got to know the hottest clubs In the city You have to know French Montana Gotta know French That's super important Some front of Bronx No French So I checked that box.
Starting point is 01:31:06 Yeah, man, I think I could be mayor of New York one day. Like, if I really, like, just dedicated the time to it, like, you know, I'm going to be mayor. What would be, like, your first step? My first step. Eliminate all double rims from the basketball courts. I think double rims killed dreams way too early. It's not that you can't shoot. It's not that you can't shoot.
Starting point is 01:31:31 Yeah. That's two rims that you're shooting. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. What's a double rim? Oh, it's shattered many dreams. More dreams than crack cocaine ever has. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:41 And the bounce, like, the amount of shots you would make at the gym off the bounce, you'd be fine. That double rim is terrible. It's the worst thing to happen to a childhood. It's not a Swiss or fuck. Yeah, it's the worst thing to happen to a child. Double rim with no net. Oh, now you're just. This is why, that's how Schitts to my Lou made it to the league.
Starting point is 01:31:59 Yeah, double rims. I would eliminate all double rims at the parks. Here's my thing. Not even the double room that was orange. Where was the one that was like, well, I don't think it started out black, but ended up being black. That gray double rim, that was the worst. That shit was like this big. That's what we would do first.
Starting point is 01:32:15 Attack the parks and recreation department. Get rid of double rims. Yeah, I think we start there and then we work out way into the community. You know what I mean? I mean, I haven't, this is I guess how much I don't hang out on the hood anymore. I have not seen a double room in a long time. Are they still around? Oh, they're still out there.
Starting point is 01:32:32 They're still destroying dreams in every ghetto in America. Are they still in Marcy Peach? I feel they have an update You know, Hove is not bought Marcy a new Playground What that's what I fuck is up with Hoare? Oh, and you know Hove That's, oh, see?

Starting point is 01:33:02 You have to be the guardian angel, Are you kidding? You're my god. guardian angel you have to be yeah I think we could take over the city in New York for sure yeah what do you think it would be that your opponent will bring up against you me yeah like what do you

Something I said on this show, they'll try to, you know, they play the commercial. Is this who you want as mayor? And then you'll see me saying some crazy shit. You with mad F words bleaked? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:33:52 But see, that's how you, I think that's New York. I mean, but to me, that's going to get the middle village vote. Yeah. True and true. The strap hangers, they're going to love me. Staten Island, they're going to name the ferry after Mall. Yeah. If that's, that's the smear campaign.
Starting point is 01:34:06 Come on. I could definitely take over the city. I could clean up the city in New York. Listen, if Eric Adams could become, I could become mayor if he's the mayor. I don't get a fuck with none of y'all talking about. I got like my chances.
Starting point is 01:34:19 I'd be like city comp, roller or something. Nah, that's... That's ass. Yeah, I'm straight to the mayor's office. Just wear a suit and a Yankee hat and sit behind home plate. That's it. That's all...
Starting point is 01:34:31 That's the best leader on earth every time. Once they see Rory's birthday at Yankee Stadium, him. He's my guardian. They're going to be like, no, those are real New York. They know this city. Like, come on, we in there. Where he spent his 13th birthday? Are you kidding me? It doesn't get more
Starting point is 01:34:48 New York than that. Can you hire me as the lady that's in charge of getting rid of all the rats in New York City? Like snitches or the rats in like the parks? Because I'm about to say, I don't know if we should campaign on that. The rats. We need the rat boat. We're going to make snitching illegal. You get a other charge if you try to talk. Okay.
Starting point is 01:35:08 Maybe we'll bring the death penalty back to New York. When was it here? It should have been here. It is back? No, it's not. New York locks up way too many of the wrong people for us to have the death penalty. We know them for locking the wrong niggas up. Yeah, but I mean, like, the evidence that we know, oh, no, this nigga did that.
Starting point is 01:35:26 I know that they did not get it back. Yeah. That brings crime down. I keep telling you, one way to drop all crime, just showed them killing one nigga. 2004, they got rid of it? I didn't know that I mean whatever happened to they were going to get rid of Rikers

Starting point is 01:37:13 everyone's facing everywhere but the subway like they're only facing each other right here crime all around everyone has their back to the crime yeah sharing memes like I could literally just push a child onto the platform right now and nothing would happen
Starting point is 01:37:29 yeah clean it up I think we should put those cops on the air conditioner in the subways nah we need that platforms in the summer? Terrible. Yeah, they're awful.
Starting point is 01:37:41 It's too hot in the subways. Too, way too fucking hot. We make too much money on our MTA system to not have AC on a platform. What are we doing?
