Ruby Rose said you need to make $5 billion a year to date her.
Ah. said you need to make $5 billion a year to date her. For content purposes,
because that's what this is,
for content purposes.
I mean, that's...
Everyone can have their dreams and aspirations.
Everyone can have their...
What's the word I'm looking for?
Their prerequisites on what's required to date them.
So I'm not knocking her prerequisites.
Now, it's a little steep.
Based on the individuals that have five million,
that make five million or more a year.
That pool of one percentage you have to choose from, you know, I mean, that's cool.
That's cool as long as you understand what comes with that.
Well, at least she already told you what she's about.
So she's under no pretenses.
Look, it's just as easy to say the rich man is the poor one.
And if you're given a choice, hey, she said, I'm going to take the rich one.
But you know what you got?
You know what?
She already told you what she's about.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
All right, Mio.
I like it.
So let me ask you a question, Ocho.
Ruby Rose.
She cute.
She cute, huh?
She's fine, huh?
Not $5 million fine.
You don't think?
I've seen women.
I've seen women finer.
I've seen women look better.
That's just me personally.
Right, right, right.
Okay.
Okay.
Until I was just, hey, in Houston, I saw 10 of them.
Oh, my God.
I know three for sure.
Do me a favor. Don't mention Houston. You know what? You're right. You're right. My bad. I saw 10 of them. Oh my God. I know three for sure. Do me a favor.
Don't mention Houston. You know what? You're right.
You're right. My bad. I've been focused.
I've been focused. I've been disciplined.
Don't do that. Don't do that.
Don't do that. But yeah,
I think at some point she was dating Druski. Druski, yeah.
Druski, yeah. I mean, obviously
she's gorgeous.
So I would do that. That's what I would do. In order for her's gorgeous. So I'm going to do that.
That's what I'm going to do.
In order for her to date you,
I'm going to need you to make at least $10 million a year.
Damn.
How many women on earth are making $10 million a year?
That ain't got nothing to do with me.
I'm telling you what my standard is, okay?
What the fuck does that got to do with me?
Hey, if she could say she wants somebody that'll make 5 billion, why can't we?
Right.
Listen, and that's the beauty of life, too, huh?
That's the beauty of life.
As men, as women, we can have free requisites and have certain standards
and abide by them and boundaries whatever it may be i want my man to have abc and i want my woman to have abnc and if they don't
meet those standards i'm gonna keep it moving now the chances of finding some of the things that
people require it's slim to none but if you're gonna shoot for the if you're gonna shoot for
the moon or if you're gonna shoot for the stars and then fall short and land on the moon so be it
but here's the you know i like here's
the thing though oh joe you see how women can have standards women can say i want somebody six foot
tall i want somebody to make x amount of dollars i want somebody that has a degree i want somebody
that's well read and likes to travel yeah shannon says shannon says oh he don't want a woman to
pass gas right that's why you're single you You see? Now, women just listed on five, ten things what they want.
That ain't why you're single.
But, hey, I say, I don't want a woman to pass gas around me.
I want a woman, she go to the bathroom, I don't need to know.
Close the door.
Oh, I can see why I'm single.
Women tell you all the things they want.
The first thing a man says, they'll say, you know what?
I want a woman that's about 5'10".
I want her to have her natural hair.
I want her to have everything natural.
He's so shallow.
A man tell you what he want, he's shallow.
Women go out there and tell you everything.
I want this, this, this, and this.
Hey, I don't blame you, baby.
Don't settle.
Don't settle.
Yeah.
But a man's supposed to settle.
But women never supposed to settle.
They love that.
Man, y'all better miss me.
Yeah.
Hey, it's an ongoing battle, Arnold.
It's an ongoing battle of the sexes.
And what we want, what we require,
there's a lot of delusion in it as well.
It's... i like it i like it whatever you believe in whatever your standards may be
go for it go for it again like i say shoot shoot for the highest the highest you can the chance of
you you getting you know what you're actually shooting for is slim to none, but hope and believe that one day you may achieve it.
But I mean, I'm saying, I don't I don't care.
I don't care what race you date.
I don't care whatever the case may be.
But it seems to be jaded for one side that a woman gets to have all these prerequisite that they require from a man.
But the moment a man says this,
oh, he's shallow.
Oh, he's this, he's that.
Why can't I say I want this out of a woman?
Like women say they want this from a man.
That's all I'm asking.
I don't care what you date.
I don't care who you date.
But I'm just asking,
why can't men have standards like women we're supposed to take what
anything we're supposed to take anything that wink at us and i lay down hey you better be glad
you're out of your 57 i'll give it down from 87 yeah you ain't fit to put no stipulations on me
double standards double standard depending on your ass
that's a great topic
that's a great conversation
if she
if
a hundred thousand whatever the case may be
most of the time
men don't say oh she needs to make this
okay you treat me good
okay blah blah blah
but also you gotta think don't say oh she needs to make this okay you treat me good okay blah blah blah then you know i think
and but but also you got to think about this too uncle men that make that kind of money
men that make that kind of meaning five million and more they like dealing with women
that don't have as much or really don't need them because they don't want to deal with women that
need that that don't need them they want to deal with women that don't need them. They want to deal with women that need them
that puts them in positions of power
where they're able to control
what you can and can't do.
So they enjoy that.
And most women,
I don't think they understand.
When you deal with these men
that have that kind of money
that are taking care of you
and doing everything for you,
there's really no freedom.
Because you make one mistake the
chance of getting that again don't you it's slim to none you got to be careful reason why men
because a woman that makes that kind of money she don't have that kind of time to devote to a man
that's making that kind of money man anyway so women that don't make that money the man is
expecting them to be there at their beck and call If a woman make that, she's working just as hard as a man that's making that.
Yeah.
So that's why you don't see a lot of times, sometimes not all, but I'm talking about like movie stars.
The thing is, you know why movie stars?
Because the other know what it's like to live in that world.
But when you start seeing men, okay, you make a million, you make two men,
you make five,
you make 10,
you make 20.
Do you understand what is required of a woman to make that kind of a salary?
Yeah,
it's different.
If it'd be coming home and cooking for you,
if it'd be,
no,
bro,
come on now.
It's different.
So you have to understand,
okay, I want somebody that's going to, you know, be the mother of my kids.
I want somebody that's going to stay home and take care of the house.
Woman that's making $10 million, I don't believe she's giving that up, Ocho.
She don't work too hard to be put in that position.
I'm just saying, I could be wrong, but it's hard.
It's hard.
You're not wrong.
You're not wrong because y'all understand, a woman that's making $10 million a year,
that's a plan that's been thought out,
strategized years in advance.
Her whole life.
And she's not messing that up.
No, that's, that's, that's,
that wasn't a mistake.
Yeah.
That was not a mistake.
So it's, it's,
man, these women, they got real bold with it, but it is what it is. Yeah. Yeah. That was not a mistake. So it's, man, these women, they got real bold with it, but it is what it is.
Yeah.
Yeah, but listen, it eliminates gray area.
It eliminates gray area and it eliminates games.
Now, what it does do, it makes a percentage of the type of men that they can date.
It shrinks the pool very, very, very, very, very small.
I want a man that makes $5 million.
Well, I know one thing. All the men that makes $5 million. Well, I know one thing.
All the men that make $5 million or more,
I mean, well,
the chance, I mean,
you got to wait to turn to come off the bench.
That's about it.
You ain't going to be the only one,
but he does make $5 million.
I mean, you know,
they get the pick from the pawn
on who they want to deal with.
Hey, listen, that Pacific Day.
You understand what that comes with now?
I mean, listen, some sometimes women don't care as long as they got it.
Hey, but it is what it is.
Ocho, I got something for you here.
You have one hour to eat this for a hundred thousand.
Ocho, are you doing it?
Oh, that's easy.
I can't do it.
That ain't no sense of me lying.
I can't do that.
Man, what the hell you think I am?
A lion or a dog or something?
I ain't got no bottomless stomach.
What the hell?
That's only four burgers.
There's a reason that they put four burgers in there.
And chicken nuggets.
And them drinks.
And them fries.
I'm not doing that, Ocho.
I can't eat that. And them drinks. And them fries. I'm not doing that, Ocho. I can't eat that.
I know me.
Yeah, two Big Macs and 20-piece McNuggets.
And large fries.
That's gone.
Bro, do you realize how long ago that's been?
Hell no.
Man, I can't eat that.
In an hour?
Kobe,
what's the name of the hot dog?
Yeah.
If you can eat all them hot dogs,
you can finish them burgers.
And listen, you have the four sodas there
to wash everything down right away.
To make it go down easy.
Trust me, you can...
You know what?
The world can't...
Joey Chestnut eat that in five minutes.
Joe Chestnut.
Probably could.
I can't...
Ain't no...
Ain't no...
Look.
I don't have the desire.
I can't eat like I once could.
Once upon a time,
yeah, I can eat.
I can eat two Big Macs,
20-piece nugget,
large fry large large
drinks super size i can't eat that hold on let's keep everything let's think keep everything in
the context unc the word can't should not be i cannot we learning a hundred thousand yes i'm not
making myself sick with that.
So you can't, you can't eat that for a hundred thousand.
Then that means you don't need that.
I need that.
For 52,
I can eat it for 5,200.
I can't do it for a thousand.
I can do it for 5,200 though.
Man,
hold on.
That's one,
two,
one,
two,
that's 12 nuggets.
That's a, hold on, that's a double quarter.
That look like two double quarter pounders,
four double quarter pounders,
a medium fry, large fry, and four, oh, hell no.
Hell to the no.
It's a 20 piece and four quarter pounders,
but it look like they got double meat. four quarter pounders but it look like
they got double meat
double quarter pounders

four cheeseburgers
I don't want no cheese though

if it ain't no lactate around,
it's a wrap.
Yeah, and done, huh?
Yeah, okay, that's understandable.

Made for this mountain is a podcast that exists to empower listeners to rise
above their struggles,
break free from the chains of trauma and silence the negative voices that have
kept them small through raw conversations,
real stories and actionable guidance.
You can learn to face the mountain that is in front of you.
You will never be able to change or grow
through the thing that you refuse to identify.
The thing that you refuse to say,
hey, this is my mountain.
This is the struggle.
This is the thing that's in front of me.
You can't make that mountain move
without actually diving into that.
May is Mental Health Awareness Month,
a time to conquer the things that once felt impossible
and step boldly into the best version of yourself to awaken the unstoppable strength that's inside of us all.
So tune into the podcast, focus on your emotional well-being, and climb your personal mountain.
Because it's impossible for you to be the most authentic you.
It's impossible for you to love you fully if all you're doing is living to please people.
Your mountain is that.

We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream
gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel seen.
What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core.

Muhammad Ali was never afraid to express himself loudly and boldly and stays true to form in Ali and Me, an eight-part Audible original.
Guided by his own words, this series explores Ali's life and legacy through never-before-heard audio recordings and discussions with those who knew him best.
Muhammad had this real sense of his own personal values and principles,
things he believed in, his own sense of conviction.
Those convictions never wavered.
Hosted by Muhammad's wife, Lani Ali,
and his close friend, award-winning broadcaster, John Ramsey,
Ali and Me goes beyond the boxing ring to delve deeply into Ali's extraordinary life
through conversations with Billy Crystal, Mike Tyson,
Rosie Perez, Common, Will Smith, and Bob Costas.
It created a North Star for me of how I want to be in the world, you know.
As a child, as a young person, he gave credence
to my audacity.
There's no debate that this is the
greatest global sports figure of our
lifetime. Listen to
Ali and Me, now on Audible.
In the fall of 1986,
Ronald Reagan found
himself at the center of a massive scandal
that looked like it might bring down
his presidency.
Did you make a mistake in sending arms to Tehran, sir?
No.
It became known as the Iran-Contra affair. And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second.
I'm going to ask...
I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn.
In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran Contra,
you'll hear all the unbelievable details
of a scandal that captivated the nation
nearly 40 years ago,
but which few of us still remember today.
The things that happened were so bizarre and insane,
I can't begin to tell you.
Please do.
To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran Contra on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Oh, Joe.
Yo.
Look who's joining us.
Hey, he's 6'6", 464 pounds.
He could become the largest draft pick drafted in NFL history.
And boy, he had a pro day last week.
He bench pressed 225 36 times.
Me too.
More than any player did at the combine earlier this year.
Yeah.
He also ran the 40.
And 5'3", 9", he broke six seconds at over 460 pounds.
Had a 25-inch vertical jump.
Y'all, let's put some hands together for Florida's outstanding defensive tackle,
Mr. Desmond Watson.
Dad, what's up?
Dad, you can hear me?
What's up, little fella? Boy, hear me? What's up, little fella?
Boy, you good?
What's up, young dad?
I'm telling you.
Hey, where you at?
Where you at right now?
What state you in?
I'm in Florida.
Wait, what?
What, you from the crib?
Yeah, I'm from Tampa.
I didn't know that.
You in Tampa right now?
Okay, man, I'm coming to see you tomorrow.
We're going to cheer.
Let me ask you this, Dad. the pro you know uh florida's
having their pro day what what were you hoping to accomplish and do you feel you accomplished that
in your pro day um i think i'll just go in there trying to surprise everybody you know i feel like
everybody looking away and stuff like that and don't expect me to be able to move around because
you know usually people my size can't.
So I think I was going there
trying to surprise some people
and I think I did.
You definitely did.
You definitely surprised some people
because you picking them up
and putting them down.
I'm like, well, damn.
He can move now.
He can move.
Before you go,
hey, Dad, listen,
if the scouts
and the people that watch film
and watch college football this year,
man, and they watch you play,
you're sure their quickness is like no other, though.
Your footwork is like no other, though.
So they should know you can already move a little bit based on what you put on film already.
So it really shouldn't have been no surprise to nobody when you went out there and did what you did.
Listen, I got one thing.
At 464 pounds, you think that's right?
You think they got your weight right?
Yeah,
but,
you know,
I still got to process,
you know what I mean?
I definitely
going to lose weight.
I feel like my outlook
or the outlook of like,
you know,
my supporters,
my fans,
stuff like that
isn't the same as Scouts.
So, you know,
they got a number set for me
that I got to get to.
And I think,
you know,
in order for me to be
successful in the league,
I get to the league at that.
I got to get it. Now, I always thought know, in order for me to be successful in the league, to get to the league at that, I got to get it.
Now, I always thought about this.
They always tell you what you, what, how much you need to wear, what you need to do with your body.
How do you feel best?
How do you feel you can play at your best?
Is it, is it being a little lighter?
Is it being a little heavy?
Well, what do you think?
Um, I don't know.
I think, I think losing weight, you know know it definitely put me in a right spot for sure
but i think you know i can play but at the same time i want to i want to do something if i get
there so i think being being lighter to help me you know i mean okay i heard i don't know if it's
true uh were you at one point in time almost close to 500 and you've lost like 30, 40 pounds, haven't you? Yeah, close to it. Close to it.
I ain't never touched it.
So because I think the thing is right now,
they're looking at you as a two-down player,
first and second down.
You stop the run, make sure, hey,
your linebackers stay clean.
They flow to the ball.
Hey, but hey, y'all talking about taking up all these blocks.
I'm trying to eat too.
I'm trying to make me some tacklers.
Y'all talking about holding center in this guard
and keeping them getting up on the linebacker. Bro, I need to eat. I need to to eat too. I'm trying to make me some tacklers. Y'all talking about holding center in this guard and keeping them getting up on the linebacker.
Bro, I need to eat.
I need to eat.
Yeah.
But I saw you at Florida also.
They gave you the ball.
You carried the rung, Des.
Yeah.
That's really not,
that's not my thing.
You know, I usually don't
like being spoken about
and stuff like that.
But I know like since I got there,
fans and stuff like that
and then, you know,
Napier gave me the opportunity.
I couldn't pass it up so
what if they put you
what if the NFL team say Dave
you're going to be on the one yard line
and they want you to dot that I
they're going to put you at the I-4 position
I'm doing it
he pushed her
so realistically
because for me honestly
I don't think realistically i
don't really know if getting under 400 but i think you can get down to say 420 420 and i think that
would give you sustainability now you can play 25 30 30 plays a game is that something realistic
is that would uh so what is what is the goal that you have in mind as far as weight and far as play
total that you think that you know what i can be at my absolute in mind as far as weight and as far as play total that you think that, you know what, I can be at my absolute best
if I get this weight and play this many plays?
I'm not really sure specifically, but I know, you know,
like along the process I'll be able to feel it.
You know what I'm saying?
As far as play total, same thing.
You know, I got to feel it.
I played against Tennessee, which is the fastest offense in the nation,
all four years. So, I mean, like, to feel it. I played against Tennessee, which is the fastest offense in the nation, all four years.
So, I mean, like,
that's not really a worry of mine,
but at the same time,
I know, I guess,
the lighter I get,
the more I can dominate
because that's the goal, you know.
So, I don't know.
I say I got to feel it.
Okay.
What do the staff tell you?
Go ahead, Ocho.
Go ahead.
My bad.
You're taking all my questions, man.
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
Hey, Dad,
I got a two-part question.
For one,
I want to know how you like Cincinnati.
Have you ever been Cincinnati?
How would you like to be part of the Bengals?
Now I'm not trying to tamper nothing.
I'm just throwing a little birdie out there for you real quick.
Just in case,
you know,
I talk,
I talk to people.
I talk to management,
you know,
we need a little help on the defensive line.
So I just want to know if you've been in Cincinnati,
do you like it?
If you don't like it,
I can give you a suggestion on where to go.
Once you get drafted. Oh, I've've been to Cincinnati, do you like it? If you don't like it, I can give you a suggestion on where to go once you get drafted.
I've never been to Cincinnati.
You know, I'm from down south.
I ain't really been too far.
Unless I put in NCC, we ain't never traveled a little bit.
But I don't care who it is.
You know, if anybody's trying to put me in a jersey, I'm ready for it.
Well, I'm telling you, you look good in stripes.
But my second part of my question was, when it comes to defensive tackles,
especially those that are coming out in the draft this year,
what do you think it is about you and your game that separates you
apart from everybody else and why a team shouldn't want you instead
of any other defensive tackles?
Why should you be on the board first?
I feel like I'm the best run stopper there is.
Even without,
I think I got great technique.
I pride myself on being the smartest
on the D-line
or at least knowing
the offense and defense
that we're going against.
I think that's really
the biggest thing.
I pride myself on being able
to take a double team
and stuff like that
and just doing my job.
I think me being prideful
and doing my job
is something that would
set me apart from most people.
I like it.
You heard that Mike Brown, Duke Tobin tobin ha yeah des tell me tell me what what you've heard as far
as day one day two maybe you know first three rounds rounds four through seven what are you
hearing and who who's shown the most interest in desmond watson? I did a couple interviews with different teams.
Like I say, everybody's outlook isn't the same,
apart from my supporters and stuff like that,
compared to the NFL scouts.
I think they all can agree that I got athletic ability
and I'm smart enough to do it.
I got the ability, but like I say,
that weight is a lot of concern for a lot of teams.
So depending on how much weight I lose,
depending on where I could go,
you know what I mean?
So...
Des, were you always a big...
How much did you wear as a child?
Were you always a big kid?
Yeah, I was always a big kid
but the crazy thing is
I'm the only big one in my family.
I come from a family of receivers,
running backs.
Damn!
I don't know.
I think it was just destined
for me to play
in Syria.
Everybody else had all the
highlight plays and stuff like that.
Like my older brother,
5'9", 165.
Serious?
I'm dead serious.
That's dope.
That's live.
That's live.
So,
you said,
as long as somebody's
going to give you a jersey,
going to give you the opportunity
to live out your childhood dream,
which is playing
the National Football League.
Have you thought about what that moment will mean when you get that call
and it's somebody that picks up the phone and says,
may I speak to Desmond?
Like, yeah, let's see.
We're going to select you with the next pick and whatever round that is.
Have you thought about what that moment is going to feel like
and how are you going to handle that moment?
How are you going to respond in that moment?
Oh, yeah.
I mean, it'll mean a lot.
But I think in my situation,
it still would be more time
before I could celebrate it.
You know what I mean?
Because I think getting an invite
to a camp or something like that
or getting a call from a team
definitely wouldn't be the end for me.
You know what I mean?
It's going to be more.
I got to make a team.
I got to, you know,
get it at 53
and then make a play.
I think my first tackle or something like that in the NFL
would be a lot more to me than the call.
Wow.
I like that.
Let me ask you this, Des.
So have you hired a nutritionist?
So what are the steps that you're looking to undertake
to make sure you get to that weight?
Maybe it's not a number that a team has set.
Maybe it's a number that Desmond has set for himself.
Have you hired a nutritionist?
And what are the steps that you're going to take to make sure you get to that number?
Yeah, I was trained out in Miami, had nutrition and stuff like that.
But after pro day, me and my agent were talking.
I get back to work tomorrow, actually, in Tampa.
All that type of stuff, you know.
Nutritionist, working out, different types of workouts, therapy, all types of things. You know, nutritionist, working out, different types of workouts,
therapy,
all types of things.
You know what I mean?
My goal is to play in the NFL and stuff like that
and I know what it takes to do that.
So, me and my family,
my agent,
we're all hands-on
trying to get that.
Well, listen,
whatever that goal may be,
now, we don't have to talk
about this online.
Now, my resume,
it speaks for itself
as far as being a nutritionist
and being able to provide
all the necessary nutrients that you need to either gain or lose weight.
So if you want to get in contact with me, it's a way to reach me and I can be down in Tampa tomorrow.
Yeah, I heard about your meal plan.
That's how I got a different person.
And go somewhere else.
Yeah, Dan, don't you follow with that foolishness.
Can't do it.
You be heading
the other way,
Dez.
You be heading
the other way.
Dez,
let me ask you a question.
When you was running,
what did you think,
did you think you could
break six seconds?
So in training,
did you break six seconds
in the 40?
Yeah,
I think
maybe like a week
or two before that,
I got five,
high five, seven or something like that.
I knew I was going to break it.
I feel like we didn't have a lot of time to warm up.
Stuff started locking up on me a little bit.
You know what I mean?
I definitely could have got a little bit better.
Hey, Dad, I don't know if you saw the game,
but did you see the game when I think Baltimore played Pittsburgh?
Oh, yeah.
And Pierce got that interception.
And he was about to take it to the house, and he took a knee.
Dad, you ain't going to do that.
You could have picked.
You're going to the house, ain't it?
In that situation, you got to take a knee.
My coach called the situation an expert.
I can't do it.
I don't know how to hold the ball.
I know how to touch people.
I don't know how to hold the ball.
They just keep coming.
Put your hand up in there.
Put your hands up.
It sounds easy.
It sounds easy.
When people go in for your knees,
you ain't think about holding them down
He had a clear path
You're supposed to hit that prime time
Put your head behind your head
And start stepping on them
I got a question
And this will be a good one
As a defensive tackle yourself
I want you to rank your all-time
Five greatest defensive tackles
That you like or you enjoy watching
or maybe that you model your game after
or you watch film on.
Who do you think are your top five all-time defensive tackles?
All-time.
Oh, that's a good one.
These are not people I model my game after.
You know, that's like, I'm a little different.
Aaron,
of course.
Chris Jones up there.
All time.
It doesn't have to be all time.
Just your five favorites.
You can take 10 watches. Dex Lawrence.
Dex Lawrence in there.
Dex?
For sure.
Okay. He go up there before it's over there. Dex? For sure. Okay.
Yeah, he go up there before it's over with.
And the person I like to watch a lot and model my game after is Vita Vell.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hey, you know what?
Now you like Vita Vell.
Now you know Vita eating McDonald's, man.
I'm just throwing that out there.
I'm just telling you.
I can't do it.
Vita Vell get like 70 M's right now.
I can't do it.
Hey, tell me,
hey,
hey,
dads,
when you get that second contract,
you can treat yourself to some McDonald's,
but that first contract is chicken,
bread,
fish,
lean cuts of turkey and stuff like that.
I got you.
I like that.
Hey,
you know what?
Some team might get you dead just to stop that tush push.
You stop, you stop the tush push. You stop the tush push.
I got to.
I don't come with this equipment.
I don't think anybody got to sneak on me since I've been in college.
Let me ask you this, Dad.
You had offers from Alabama, Florida State, Kentucky, Michigan, and Tennessee.
What made you choose Florida?
At the time, when I was coming out of high school,
there was an SEC championship.
Things were looking right.
Of course, I'm from Florida too, but things were looking right.
I think it came down to the wire with Florida, Texas A&M, and Alabama.
Texas A&M, I'm not sure why.
I didn't think they valued me as much as Florida.
And then with that being close to home, I feel like it wasn't a better choice
okay so you want to stay close
to home you're a Florida kid
so you're from Tampa
so Tampa to Gainesville what's that an hour drive
90 minutes
hour 30
that's real close
you're going to the draft next year
we're going to the draft next year. Excuse me.
You're going to the draft this year.
Now, you know I do the Madden ratings for Madden.
So at the Combine, you did the bench press 225.
You did it 38 times.
I did mine 37 when I was at the Combine.
What would you want your strength to be?
So I can go ahead and jot it down now on Madden.
Top. Top.
Top three?
I ain't gonna say 99,
but top three.
So I'm gonna make you 97.
I got you.
I got you.
So your strength
is gonna be a 97.
What about your overall rating?
I don't know.
I need to be a run stopper
or whatever it is.
I need to have some run stopping ability.
I got you.
I'm gonna put that in. I'm gonna do that myself in the system. If I a run stopper or whatever it is. I need to have some run stopping ability. I got you. I'm going to put that in.
I'm going to do that myself in the system.
If I get fired, it is what it is.
Dad, we're going to get you out of here on this one.
Your Gators made it to the Final Four.
They taking it all?
For sure.
That last game was the worst game y'all going to see.
That was it.
And they caught it off.
So, you know, they got to get it off.
Dan, you who?
You who, too, Dan?
I did when I was younger.
But I think eighth grade, when I stopped, I can, though.
Oh, you got skills like that?
Yeah.
I told you, I come from family of receivers and running backs.
This footwork is in me.
It is.
Ben, congratulations.
All the best, Dan.
Thank you for joining us for a couple of minutes,
giving us a couple of minutes of your time.
We wish you the best of luck.
And when you get drafted,
come back and holler at your favorite unkid,
your favorite number 85.
Yeah.
Don't forget me, Des, by the nutritionist job.
Block him, Des.
Block him.

and stays true to form in Ali and Me, an eight-part Audible original.
Guided by his own words, this series explores Ali's life and legacy
through never-before-heard audio recordings and discussions with those who knew him best.
Muhammad had this real sense of his own personal values and principles, things he believed in, his own
sense of conviction. Those convictions never wavered. Hosted by Muhammad's wife, Lani Ali,
and his close friend, award-winning broadcaster, John Ramsey, Ali and Me goes beyond the boxing
ring to delve deeply into Ali's extraordinary life through conversations with Billy Crystal,
Mike Tyson, Rosie Perez,

person, he gave
credence to my audacity.

In the fall of 1986,
Ronald Reagan
found himself at the center of a massive
scandal that looked like it might bring
down his presidency.
Did you make a mistake in sending arms to Tehran, sir?
No.
It became known as the Iran-Contra affair.
And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second.
I'm going to ask...
I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn.
In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran-Contra,
you'll hear all the unbelievable details of a scandal
that captivated the nation nearly
40 years ago, but which few of us still remember today. The things that happened were so bizarre
and insane, I can't begin to tell you. Please do.
To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran Contra on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
DDG said he spent $15,000 on a designer bag for a girl, but won't cover her rent. He said, I'd rather buy a girl a $15,000 designer bag, but wouldn't give her $2,000 to pay her rent.
He said, a girl asked me to pay her rent.
I'll probably never talk to her again after that.
Well, listen, I mean, the girl is smart, right?
If you buy a $15,000 bag, you know what you can do with that bag, right?
No, tell me she don't buy me no,000 bag, you know what you can do with that bag, right? No, tell me
don't buy me no bag.
Tell me you give me the money.
It don't make no sense.
He already said
he ain't paying the rent.
So if he buy you that bag,
ain't no point in walking around
with a $15,000 bag
and you got no money in it.
Selling it.
Yeah.
Bingo.
That was my whole point.
That's what I was getting ready to say.
But see, Ocho,
that's why I like to ask people
what they want.
Oh, I really like the bag,
but okay, can you...
Boom!
Yeah.
Okay.
Ain't no biggie.
You're not getting both.
You ain't getting both.
You got to pick and choose, huh?
Pick one.
I don't care. One or the't care one or the other one or the other right
whatever it is that's why i like to ask people what they want because i want to give you what
i want you to have what you want exactly what you want yes and i don't at the end of the day
i've never like we like i've been in Ochoa, look, I've never like,
we,
like I've been in relationships
and I give somebody something,
I've never asked for it back.
Didn't ask for it back.
Man,
what you think,
I don't care.
She wouldn't say,
what I'm going to do with the bag?
Get into my sister?
Right,
right,
right,
right,
right,
right,
right.
No. Uh, right, right, right, right, right. No.
Now, I have, was potentially going to give somebody a bag.
Right.
But it didn't, you know, I ended up keeping it.
Still got it.
Hey, you really, hold on.
That's a, no, that is a great topic.
If you do buy something for somebody, specifically for that individual,
and you know it's something that they like,
if they mess up before receiving it, you're not going to give it to them?
Hell no.
It'd be a damn fool to.
Damn.
If you buy something for a young lady,
and she behaves in a manner
that's undeserving of...
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hold on.
I don't reward bad behavior.
We can stop right there.
You're not going to give her the bag, right?
Okay, yeah.
I was just curious how your angle, you know.
I was curious what you do
because you're a giving person.
And you seem like you're a good dude.
You seem like the type of dude that will give a woman grace if she messes up.
Yeah, but she's not getting a bag.
Okay, understandable.
Also, she said, DDG later said, I'm an emotional trick to the point like,
say I wake up in the morning now and like, you fuck around and we wake up on some eggs.
They ain't even got to be good.
Or say I leave the room and go downstairs and come back in the bed made.
I might go ahead and go to Chanel for you.
It's a little thing because, you know, I don't get gifts.
I don't get tricked on.
Who is this talking like this?
DDG. You know, he had the baby with
Haley Bailey, right? It's Haley.
Oh, these little kids, man.
Is it
Haley or Hallie? Which one is it,
Chad? Y'all know.
You heard me?
Huh? These little kids,
man. Okay,
Hallie Bailey.
Yeah, they little kids, man. Hallie? Okay, Hallie Bailey. Yeah, they little kids, man.

Figure it out.
You got to ask for what you want.
See, now you're being difficult.
You're being difficult.
Figure it out.
Don't be difficult, huh?
Look, the one thing, once you get to a certain age, let's just say a young lady,
let's just say between the ages of 30 and 50, she know what a man like.
She know what she need to do to make him happy.
Yeah. Okay.
Yeah, we know all minute.
That's funny.
I mean, making the bed,
I mean, I got a cleaning service.
I got a lady to clean my house
three times a week.
Now, it's going to take more than that,
don't you?
Hey, man.
Let me tell you what it is.
It's a feeling I get
when I'm with said individual.
Ooh.
Hey, I know that feeling.
It's a feeling that I get
when I'm with that individual.
Hey, I know that feeling.
What I do, how much I do. I know that feeling, Hey, I know that feeling. What I do, how much I do.
I know that feeling, huh?
I know that feeling.
I know that feeling.
Hey, can I tell you something?
Yeah.
It's a good feeling.
Being with said individual, especially when they appreciate you.
Nope.

I mean, for us, it's all about choosing who chooses you.
That's what you got to do.
And people are like, well, you don't like this.
No, I like who like me.
They like me.
It's easy for me to like them.
Because a lot of times when I like somebody, they ain't really feeling me like that.
So I'm going to see early on,
you like me?
It's so easy.
I'm not sure when we,
when I hear women always say,
I need you to apply pressure.
There should be no pressure.
There should be no pressure.
No pressure that need to be applied.
Everything should be reciprocated.
Yes.
It's such a dumb game.
I got to prove to you, in order for me to prove to you that I like you,
I got to spend money to get you to like me back.
Bitch.
Oh, my bad.
What are we talking about?
I get it, Ocho.
You preaching to the choir.
You know how I feel.
Listen, that same choir... No, no, time out.

The Made for This Mountain podcast exists to empower listeners to rise above their inner struggles and face the mountain in front of them.
So during Mental Health Awareness Month, tune into the podcast, focus on your emotional well-being and then climb that mountain.
You will never be able
to change or grow through the thing that you refuse to identify. The thing that you refuse
to say, hey, this is my mountain. This is the struggle. Listen to Made for This Mountain on
the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Michael Kassin, founder
and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on good company. The podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next.
In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi.
