You're going to be all right. Come on. Come on, man. I bought my first house, though.

Starting point is 00:05:10 Tony, did you always want to be a comedian? Were you a class clown? Were you funny always? When did you decide to say, you know what, I'm going to be a stand-up? You know what, man? I was always funny and didn't realize it because I'm the youngest of three boys.
Starting point is 00:05:27 So I'm trying to crack jokes at the house, but my brothers would never laugh. They gave me nothing. So I would go to school. I would go to school thinking I wasn't funny. So I'm making the kids laugh, but it didn't even register. Because I was like, man, I ain't funny at home, though. And then, you know, when we young and we teens and we in the girls, you don't want to be funny. You trying to be all funny.
Starting point is 00:05:49 You know what I'm saying? You got the Jodeci boots on. You just like, yeah, they girl. They'd be like, you funny. I'd be like, no, no. I ain't trying to be funny. You know what I'm saying? And so I never really paid attention to my funny until I got to college.
Starting point is 00:06:05 And then that's when it clicked. But you know women like guys that are funny. But Tony, you know women like guys that are funny. One of the things that they say are sense of humor. Laughing right up out the drawer. I'll find that out later. Mm-hmm. I'll find that out later.
Starting point is 00:06:21 But let me ask you this. When did you get into the voiceoverover because that's kind of how i stumbled upon you you were doing voiceover cats dogs uh uh uh i forget what's the uh scotty scotty and how did you get into the voiceover you know what it was uh we always had pets growing up so you know i never lived without a animal in the house somewhere until i went to college and so i was always wondering what they was thinking about just looking at cats and dogs and like what y'all thinking about and so i did this uh i did two videos it was one of this uh goat in brazil
Starting point is 00:07:02 just harassing the hell out of everybody, man. He just crammed... Oh, real? Oh, Cramilton? Cramilton, man. He just... He knocked this lady over. He had grocery bags
Starting point is 00:07:13 and this dude tried to save him. So that was the very first one I did. And then I did this second one. This raccoon was eating out of a cat food dish and the cats was surrounding him, looking at him like he crazy. Like, yo, man, who's this man right here? And he them looking at him like he crazy like yo man who's the man
Starting point is 00:07:25 right here and he's looking at them and then he dip off and then come back for one last scoop and then he run off yeah
Starting point is 00:07:31 and so that's the one that went viral and stuff I was like let me just do these for real and I just kept
Starting point is 00:07:37 doing them ever since live hey you you had a comedy special scaredy cat can you walk us
Starting point is 00:07:42 through the creative process and the prep you had behind the special and how everything came about okay so uh i started doing stand-up in 2008 so um really my voice though was just a vehicle to get you to come to me live so um i've been doing stand-up since then so you know i'm just doing when i started doing stand-up i'm doing everything i can get my hands on man every every show every competition every bringer show i'm just doing whatever and so um i'm just accumulating all this material i'm getting up
Starting point is 00:08:17 every night dog i'm like doing multiple stages a night and so by the time i started scaredy cat and i met these cats and i I still work with Brennan and Tony at Transit Pictures, and they was like, yo, let us shoot you a special. And I was like, all right, you know. And so they put it together because they do dynamite work.
Starting point is 00:08:37 And so we went to New Mexico State. That's where I went to college. And we shot the special there. You know, low budget, guerrilla style, independent. Just shot that movie. So that's about years worth of material that we just culminated right there.
Starting point is 00:08:56 Tony, who is your inspiration? When you grow up, when you like, okay, take a little bit of this, take a little bit of that. Who are some of your inspirations in the comedic space? Well, when I was growing up, I'm 47. So, you know, Delirious was the first time. Hey, hey, hey.
Starting point is 00:09:15 It just blew my head in. What you know about that? Man, come on, man. Man, anybody that knows that was around at that time that special just blew everybody's head off and so that's when I first
Starting point is 00:09:28 took in a comedy special for real and then as time went on you know I was called Raw but then I started watching like comedy
Starting point is 00:09:36 and I was like Damon Wayans Stenberg and Jerry Steinfeld are my three influences with a sprinkler Bernie Mac so those
Starting point is 00:09:44 those are like, those are my influences right there. And so I feel like I'm a combination of those three that I mentioned. And because I feel, my mom don't know like a lot of customs, so we can watch them dad together. Right.
Starting point is 00:09:58 You know, that's what I was about to ask you because I don't hear a lot of, I don't hear a lot of cursing in your comedy. Yeah. I try to keep it PG-13 for the most part. Like I don't want to, I don't want a lot of cursing in your comedy. Yeah. I try to keep it PG-13 for the most part. Like, I don't want to get too clean because I don't want to get stuck in that box. But, you know,
Starting point is 00:10:12 so I try to keep it PG-13 so my mom won't cringe up. So, but yeah, Stenbad, Damon Wayans, the way he would just, like, storytell it through the character act out. Yes. And then the way Seinfeld like storytell and do the character act out. Yes. And then the way
Starting point is 00:10:25 Seinfeld just just details every like little basic human experience that we have
Starting point is 00:10:32 talking about socks for like 15 minutes talking about toothpaste talking about cereal I could do that type of stuff too. So those are my three influences right there.
Starting point is 00:10:42 I don't think people understand how difficult how difficult stand-up comedy is. I think they think people are funny, just stand on stage in front of a crowd, and it just works. Not understanding that the material has to hit, you have to engage with the crowd, you have to have stage presence. There's so many factors and variables that go in for a comedian to be able to stand up in front of people, have said material, remember said material, and the delivery to be on point yes so my question is how different is your approach when it comes to doing stand-up versus the content you put
Starting point is 00:11:15 on social media or do you just approach both the same way well uh the way i write is like i think of a premise like i'll be, I'll be at the grocery store tonight. And I'll be like, man, look at this lady right here. And then next time I get on stage, I'll be like, man, I was at Whole Foods and seen this lady right here. And so I write it in real time like that. I keep the premise in mind. All right, I'm going to say this. And then I start, I keep doing it the more I go up.
Starting point is 00:11:44 And then I edit. Okay. And do it like that and so uh because like the way my mind works i'll forget it if i don't if i don't like write it down or do it right yep and so uh that's my approach to like stand up my voiceovers and like the content it'd be in the moment man like when people people used to send me before i kind of stopped doing voiceovers because instagram keep pulling them off my page and i want to get my page deleted but people would send me videos all day long they still do and so they'd be like hey man hey so man did and so i'll look at the video maybe once, twice, and then I'll just think of the whole scenario. Like I got a voiceover where it's these two cats.
Starting point is 00:12:31 It's one outside the window and one inside. Yeah, hey, Curtis. Let me holler at you right quick. Yeah. Because the one outside looks like he's been about that long. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He want Curtis to come outside so they can give him these tippity-pack. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He want Curtis to come outside
Starting point is 00:12:46 so he can give him these hibbity pats. Yeah, real. And so, when I'm looking at that, I'm like, oh, I got the conversation right here.
Starting point is 00:12:53 He's like, Curtis, man, why don't you step outside? Let me holler at you. And then, and then he disappeared for a little bit. He fell, he fell,
Starting point is 00:13:01 he fell. I'm hurt. I'm hurt. Help me, man. I'm scared. I'm hurt. Help me, man. I fell. Then you come back. Why you ain't help me? Help me.
Starting point is 00:13:10 You told me, Scotty, you freaking me out. You freaking me out, Scotty. You freaking me out. Yeah, man. And so, and I like production value, too. So, like,
Starting point is 00:13:21 if I do a voiceover of a giraffe running from a lion, I'll be outside running when i record it so you get to think like it's like it's really like that's what's really happening yeah like you can hear me running outside and be like oh man it's not like he's really running so some people appreciate those little nuances right give me tony give me a Mount Rushmore comedian. Okay. I'm going to give you... Top four.
Starting point is 00:13:48 Okay, I'm going to give you two of the ones I just named. I'm going to give you Stembad. Okay. And this is my personal one. I can give you a comedy Mount Rushmore, or I can give you my personal one. Hey, I want yours. Who are your Mount Rushmore comedians?
Starting point is 00:14:00 Tony Baker, Mount Rushmore. Gotcha. Damon Wayne I feel like I feel like his HBO specials are underrated we know
Starting point is 00:14:09 we know Damon is the legend yeah but I feel like his comedy specials don't get talked about enough man it's crazy
Starting point is 00:14:16 so I'm gonna give you Damon Wayne I'm gonna give you Sinbad as well I feel like Sinbad don't get talked about enough to be that funny and that
Starting point is 00:14:26 clean and that consistent is crazy. And his crowd work is bananas. Got them two on there. I'm going to give you Dang, man. Because I want
Starting point is 00:14:43 to throw Eddie on there but he only got two special but they was monumental Eddie yeah Eddie Murphy Eddie Murphy oh Murphy
Starting point is 00:14:51 okay okay okay he only got two of those I'ma be like I'ma slide him off okay I'ma put I'ma put him on the legendary Mount Rushmore
Starting point is 00:15:00 but since he only got two I'ma slide him off and then I wanna put George Carlin on there because yeah I love Carlin I want to put George Carlin on there because, yeah, I love Carlin. That's my boy. George Carlin, man. George Carlin, man, just, I can listen to him all day
Starting point is 00:15:11 and the way he breaks something down is just... Hey, I got all his specials. All of them. Oh, man. That dude was crazy, man. You got to... There are very few comedians that you go and see where you have to think. He makes you think.
Starting point is 00:15:28 He forces you to think. Yeah. And then not only that, not only thinking, you're going to walk away having learned stuff. Yes. He's very socially conscious. Yes. He's very socially conscious. He's going to talk about things in real life that you're dealing with.
Starting point is 00:15:47 And you think like, damn, he put that in perspective. You know who I think one of the greatest storytellers, especially of this generation? Chappelle. Who that? Chappelle. Oh, yeah. And he he could take the way he could diffuse our audience and talk about things that you shouldn't be talking about. And before you know it, his SNL, when he did SNL a couple of years ago, it might have been the greatest monologue in Saturday Night Live history. If you haven't seen it, go back and look at his monologue. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:24 Yeah. Yeah. You know what's dope about Smith-Pell? The way his comedy transformed. If you go back and look at the Killing Them Softly or Early Specials, it was more rapid fire, more jokes. But he developed into this monumental storyteller where he's just listening. He's just like, man, this dude. Breaking it all the way down to where the jokes sneak up on him.
Starting point is 00:16:46 It's like, I don't know if that's made it more comfortable in his approach to where he could just be like, y'all gonna rock with me anyways, so let me just sit down. Take my time. Yeah, you don't understand, but his transition is just crazy.
Starting point is 00:17:02 Patrice O'Neal is another dude that I feel like. Yeah, yeah. Classic. If he didn't pass away, This transition is just crazy. Patrice O'Neal is another. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Classic. If he didn't pass away. Oh, man. No, no telling. No telling where he would have went.
Starting point is 00:17:13 What about prior? What do you think about prior? You know what I feel about prior? I would put him on the Mount Rushmore of the best comedians that ever exist because when you look at Def Comedy Jam, it was 27, 35 Richard Pryor's on that thing. He birthed so many comedians that if you were young and didn't catch
Starting point is 00:17:36 Richard Pryor and his Pryor, you would go back and look at a Richard Pryor special and be like, yo, this reminds me of Def Jam. That's because they were born from him. Asante Samuel saw the clips of us debating him in prime and he responded to us, Ocho. That's your problem, pimp.
Starting point is 00:17:52 You're also brainwashed at Shannon Sharp. I'm not worried about what everyone perceives to be true. Like yourself, I stand on facts. You have yet to talk about the facts. You can easily be manipulated just like everyone has because of marketing. I bet you won't debate me. the facts. You can easily be manipulated just like everyone has because of marketing. I bet you won't debate me. Big facts. Dana Sharpe, safety has the short
Starting point is 00:18:09 safety has the short middle. Nobody is in the deep but me and the receiver. You don't know the truth, pimp. You just talking out your with no facts. Let's talk or you scared like everyone else, bro. Hey, I didn't know he answered you like, okay, I like that. I like that.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Hey, listen, we can have a club, Shay Shay, right? Listen to me now. Stay with me. We can have a club, Shay Shay. DB edition. A good conversation. PowerPoint presentation style. Film up there to support each of your opinions and facts that you might have.
Starting point is 00:18:49 It ain't no opinion. He's not time. What are we debating? Let me finish, baby. Let me finish. Listen, I'm giving you the ultimate content right now, something that's never been done before, a format that's never been done before.
Starting point is 00:19:01 Two players, actually three because you're a part of it too. Three players. You got Prime and Sonny Sanders and you. You're one that loves to been done before. Two players. Actually, three, because you were part of it too. Three players. You got Prime, Asante, Sanders, and you. You're one that loves a breakdown film. He's also one that loves a breakdown film.
Starting point is 00:19:11 Now, just picture this. You think Cat Williams did a whole bunch of numbers? What you think you, Asante, sitting down, you know, going over, okay,
Starting point is 00:19:22 you want to prove it? Prove it. Die in the sky, don't lie. I'm just throwing the idea out there because the format has never been done before. I've given Coach Time and myself have given Atante Samuel more attention since he's been retired than he's ever gotten. After tonight, I'm done with this. There's nothing to debate.
Starting point is 00:19:43 My bad. There's no one going to say he's in the realm of time. He's in the realm of Darrell Rivas. He's in the realm of Rod Woodson or Charles Woodson or Darrell Green or a male blunt. He's not. I don't give a damn what he says about the film. He played more. Look, bro, you had an unbelievable career.
Starting point is 00:20:09 Congratulations. You're just not time. You're not time. You're not Rebus. Hold on. Did he make an all-decade team? Because time made all-decade, and he's one of the 100 greatest players of all time. Let's see his resume.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Let's see his body of work. I complimented him. I said, Ty, don't believe in wasted motion. The T-step worked well for Asante. I gave him a compliment. Let's see his resume. So he didn't make all decade.
Starting point is 00:20:57 Four-time pro bowler. One-time all pro. How many pro bowls did Ty and me? How many all- did Ty and me? How many all team? Yes. Same number of Super Bowls. But one guy was a defensive player of the year. One guy as a defensive back swung the balance of power.
Starting point is 00:21:18 How many DBs can say swung the balance of power? He go to one team to keep the other team from going. He go to the other team and keep that team from going. Bruh, you had an unbelievable career. You went to a Pro Bowl. You an All-Pro. You're not
Starting point is 00:21:38 time. And that's not a knock. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. But I don't know why you're getting mad at me. I tell you what, go find a GM, go find a coach,
Starting point is 00:21:56 go find a player that says Asante Samuel is the equivalent or better than time. That's all you got to do. Hell, your son won't say you better than time. And he a junior. Let's be real, man. You coming,
Starting point is 00:22:10 I'm the wrong one. What you doing? Where you going? I got that. I don't know what you're talking about, bro. I don't know what you're talking about bro I don't know what you're talking about I complimented you I said you had an outstanding career I said a T-step served you well
Starting point is 00:22:37 I just said you weren't tired That's okay If somebody says you know what Shannon You had an unbelievable career Shannon you were the A-pro boy. You were first-team All-Pro. You're an All-Decade player. You're in the Hall of Fame.
Starting point is 00:22:49 But you ain't Gronk. Okay. You ain't Travis Kelsey. Okay. But you ain't going to go to no other tight end than me talking about you ain't that. If you want to say Gronk, if you want to say Kelsey, Shannon, you not that. I ain't finna fight you. But you ain't going to go no more.
Starting point is 00:23:09 You ain't going to go no more. Because when I left, every record that a tight end could have, I had it. Catches, yards, touchdowns, most yards of the game. Hey, so hold on. Now that you mention that, when I'm going to come, when we factor in the numbers and statistics, does that play any factor in Asante's case? Or it doesn't matter?
Starting point is 00:23:34 Just curious. He had more pass breakups and fewer interceptions. How many pick-fixings did he have? All I know is when I left the game, I had every record that a tight end could possibly have. Ain't nobody had them but me. Now, they done came along and broke them. Gonzo broke them and Gates did
Starting point is 00:23:52 this and Gronk and this and that. But I don't know why he mad at me. I gave him a compliment. I said he had an outstanding career. I said the T-step for him served him well. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:24:09 I like the convo. I like the dialogue. I would love, especially for not the casual fan, but for people that are fans of the game, I wish we could dive a little bit more. I'm obviously not here on the show. I'm just asking you, find a general manager, find a head coach, find a receiver,
Starting point is 00:24:27 because he talking like he was that. I guarantee you, when you find somebody that say he a top 10 cornerback, if we go back and study history, top 10 corner. So we got Time, we got Revis, we got Mel Blunt, we got Rod Wilson, we got Daryl Green, we got aneel Williams, we got Mel Blunt.
Starting point is 00:24:49 Okay, that's seven right there. Where are we going to put him in the list of all time and the history of the NFL if he crack in the top 10? I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on Good Company, the podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next. In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything but ordinary. We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel seen. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core.
Starting point is 00:25:31 It's this idea that there are so many stories out there. And if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide. And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets. Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Please do. To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran Contra on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, your hands can't hit what your eyes can't see.
Starting point is 00:27:18 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,
Starting point is 00:27:46 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.
Starting point is 00:28:13 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. That's your homeboy. I'm what you tell me. You tell me. Where would you put him? No, I'm asking you.

Starting point is 00:32:36 Pat Peay You played against Sherm I ain't playing against Sherm But you know I did my thing everywhere I went. You hear me? It was like Halloween. If I knock on the door, I'm coming to get some candy.
Starting point is 00:32:50 I'm asking you a simple question. Of the guys that were mentioned, who is he in front of? I wouldn't say in front of, because you mentioned you know the greats but he has he has the numbers to be in the room i know i know that much and you base everything off numbers when you talk about let me finish before you say anything when you talk about mj in comparison to my to to michael jordan when it comes to the base in any other sport we always bring up the numbers but all of a sudden the numbers are ignored when it comes to nowasing any other sport. We always bring up the numbers, but all of a sudden the numbers are ignored when it comes to now talking about the...
Starting point is 00:33:27 And none of the... Hold on. In comparison. He got four Pro Bowls. All those got... Hold on. This dude got four Pro Bowls. Listen to me.
Starting point is 00:33:35 I'm not finished. Okay. But again, now we understand, but when we do a comparison based on greatness, you know... I'll tell you what. Guess what? You have a former coach.
Starting point is 00:33:46 Your former coach had three Pro Bowls and 62 picks. You're taking Dick LeBeau? Oh, and you know what? What you know about Dick LeBeau? Hey, what you know about LeBeau's what? What you know about Dick? You just told me numbers. Yeah, I mean, listen, that's what everything is based off of, right?
Starting point is 00:34:05 No. Okay, numbers. Okay, let's go all pros. Let's go Pro Bowls. Let's go all decade. Let's go Defensive Player of the Year. Right, right. That's part of numbers also, just not picks.
Starting point is 00:34:20 Okay, okay. Okay, I got it. I mean, I look at it like this. If you get six picks and you give up eight touchdowns, you're done. Okay, I see what you're doing. I thought the job of a corner is to take away more than you give up. That's a great combo.
Starting point is 00:34:42 I'm just waiting on this man to tell me who is he better than than the list I renamed. Now, we're going to have, guess what? Let's have the conversation. Hopefully, Lord spare both of our lives, we're able to have a conversation another 10 to 15 years.
Starting point is 00:34:57 I'm going to need to see a gold jacket on his back because all the guys that I've been to, now, hey, Jalen Ramsey's going to be coming up. Richard Sherman's going to be coming up. Pat Peay's going to be coming up. Richard Sherman's going to be coming up. Pat P's going to be coming up. You see, what he's trying to do, oh, it's all about marketing. Bro, you played on the Patriots. Ty Law played
Starting point is 00:35:13 on the Patriots. Ty Law got a red jacket and a gold jacket. So don't do that bull job about marketing. If you, who was on TV more than the Patriots, Ocho? Oh, during that 20-year-old? During that time. Who?
Starting point is 00:35:26 Yeah. Oh, so now it's marketing. Time ain't no marketing, bro. Yeah, he marketed himself to know how to parlay that. But that man on the field, you better go check them tapes. Either you can or you can't. That's a great conversation, boy. That's a good one now oh
Starting point is 00:35:46 that's a Millie Brown Mike Haynes Mike Haynes got nine like nine Pro Bowls you better go check that's a great convo well let me grab me a water
Starting point is 00:35:59 Asante go ahead bro Asante you had a great career bro you're a good career, bro. You're a good player. You just said, all I said, you weren't tired. And you had to get personal. I don't know why.
Starting point is 00:36:20 I mean, if you wanted to come on nightcap to get your name out there, you could have did that. Hey, hey, hey, hey, listen did that. Hey. Hey, listen. That is a great combo, boy. You hear me? What's a great combo? This one? I like this. Obviously, it's not me as the individual, but
Starting point is 00:36:37 I'm just saying. Is he better than Stephon Gilmore? At some point, hey, Chad, don't y'all want Ocho to chime in instead of just talking
Starting point is 00:36:48 about this is a great combo? He ain't said nothing about it, man. I'm not listening to you. You tell him. This is nightcap fucking Ocho. We don't listen to each other.
Starting point is 00:36:57 We go back and forth. I've been chiming in all the time. No, you ain't saying nothing. I'm listening to you. Now listen. You see what he said, Chad? He's listening to me.
Starting point is 00:37:07 He addressed Shannon Sharp. He sent a long message to Shannon Sharp So I'm just listening Where did he address Shannon Sharp What was Shannon Sharp speaking on On what, on him On Nightcap Nightcap, Unc and Ocho Right, so is your job to answer back
Starting point is 00:37:22 I get it Chat, y'all see, Ocho don't want to chime in he for florida ocho might bump into it y'all know me i'll give a damn i mean and what is bumping i haven't what up what you see here's the problem here's the thing with shannon sharp whatever shannon sharp say on nightcap shannon sharp if he bent bumped into said player shannon sharp is mad enough to stand on that. Bro, you not Ty. You not Charles Woodson. You not Rod Woodson.
Starting point is 00:37:48 You not Darrell Revis. You not Mel Blunt. You not Mike Haynes. You not Daryl Green. You not. Facts. Now, of the 10 guys that I named, find a coach, find a receiver that says Asante Samuel is better than any of those guys.
Starting point is 00:38:11 See, the way you make it sound, see, you're being mean. Ocho. Ocho. You hear how you make it sound? You make it sound like Buddy was trash or something. I didn't say he was trash, Ocho. I'm just saying the way you talking,
Starting point is 00:38:35 like you acting like we just sitting here talking about some old bum. I'm just curious. Ocho. Who can I say? Yeah, I mean, listen, I played the game. Listen, I played the game. Ocho. Who could I say? Yeah, I mean, listen, I played the game. Listen, I played the game. Wait, stay with me. Stay with me.
Starting point is 00:38:50 Stay with me real quick. I played the game on the other side of the ball. So I know. I played against Prime. I played against Zant. I have an understanding of both and how good they were. Hold on. Great as Prime was and how good they were and what they great as Prime was and how good
Starting point is 00:39:05 Zant was. So it's hard for me to sit here and say, you know, the way you doing it when I saw it with my own eyes. I understand how great Prime is, but then I know what that young boy was doing as well when he was playing. All I said, I said, he was good. i said he was a very good player had an unbelievable career
Starting point is 00:39:31 he used the technique he used the technique that time doesn't approve of. Two things can be true. Yes, sir. Okay. Some guys like to play press and open the gate. Some guys like to press and put hands. Whatever technique works for you. But he was talking as if he was the equivalent
Starting point is 00:39:58 because he posted his stats and time stats saying, look at our stats. Right. So he's posting those stats as if he's the equivalent. And I said, he's not. I didn't say he wasn't a good player. I said he went to Pro Bowls.
Starting point is 00:40:14 I think he was an All-Pro. I know he won Super Bowls in New England. That's what I said. Right. He took offense that I didn't co-sign him. I don't need no marketing. I don't need't co-sign him. I don't need no marketing. I don't need to co-sign. I think everybody's known.
Starting point is 00:40:31 I didn't have an opportunity to critique time when he played, when he went back for those two years, because he was mainly a safety and he didn't start the game. Okay, that's fine. But I've never had a problem critiquing any player. I critique Tom Brady, Peyton Manny, you name a
Starting point is 00:40:52 player, Ray Lewis, receiver, T.O., Randy. I've never had a problem critiquing because I'm basing it on my not intimate knowledge of the game and film study. When I was at CBS, I would watch film.
Starting point is 00:41:08 How many times when I was at CBS or Fox, you ever heard a guy called by Shannon Sharp, don't know what the hell he talking about? No, that ain't what happened. See what y'all trying to do. What are you doing? That's not what I said. Nope, nope. I've never said,
Starting point is 00:41:23 I've never, see, the difference is, Skip tried to say I said. I've never seen the differences. Skip tried to say, I said I was better than Tom Brady. I said Tom Brady wasn't playing well. Why would I, as a tight end, compare myself to a quarterback? Okay, right, right, right. I would need to compare myself to Gronk, to Kelsey, or a tight end. That's the only way you can get an equivalent. I said, I said.
Starting point is 00:41:51 Yeah. Asante had a great career. Pro Bowls, Super Bowls. Now, God, like I said, you want to say, Shelly, you ain't Trav. You ain't Grump. You right. You got me.
Starting point is 00:42:08 Right. You got me. But I'm just confused. Hey. But look, bro, I gave you 15 minutes of fame. Fame that you never would have gotten had you not mentioned me or time. Enjoy it. Now, go back to your solitary life.
Starting point is 00:42:34 Nobody's going to. When was the last? I'll tell you what, Ocho. When was the last time? Prior to last night. When was the last time you heard somebody mention Sante Samuel. Take your time. I'm going to go get me some water.
Starting point is 00:42:51 Take your time. Hey, Chad, y'all keep going until it's rested. Hey, anyway, Chad, we back. It's a little upset. It's a little upset.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Other than that, it's a great conversation. I like it. i like the dialogue i like the back and forth i like players also what we already talk about having a belief having not not not only belief in what you can do and what you've already done and bringing it to the forefront bringing to the forefront and supporting what it is you've done in comparison to someone else who is also great and that's okay now a lot of people won't see it that way as as you can see it include none one thing i i will always do see
Starting point is 00:43:32 is if you were bad at what you do then i will always come out and say that but i played against both and i understand how good both were I understand how great crime was obviously catching him on the tail end of his career and obviously playing against Asante during his prime and understanding how good he was how much of a student of the game he was and what I'm not going to do is diminish what I was able to see for years while I was playing and understanding watching film I'm here and understanding how good he was and how savvy he was technically, you know? So it's different coming from someone that actually played on the opposite side and understand how good he was. You know, so it's hard to say, oh, he's not good.
Starting point is 00:44:14 Whoa, whoa, whoa, I had to go against this. I had to go against that for years. So it's different. It's different. You know, especially a lot of people in the chat of some of the comments on twitter on x whatever it may be their feelings are always different as well because it's based off who you know and what they've done hey that was good i just asked you a simple question which oneoud of last night and today, when was the last time you heard somebody mention Asante Sanders?
Starting point is 00:44:48 I'm supposed to know. I be on nightcap. Every time a tight end break a record, who record they sitting there? The most 150-yard game, the most this, the most that. Every Sunday in the NFL season when a tight end does something, who name is up there? When they have them named, he just
Starting point is 00:45:06 passed this one. Who name is also up there? Ocho? Ocho? Don't worry about Ocho. Hey, Chad, all I try to do, I try to, you know, try to go back and forth, but Ocho, you know, Ocho Hey Chad All I try to do I try to you know Try to go back and forth But Ocho you know
Starting point is 00:45:27 Ocho's like hey We did We did go back and forth That was a good one though No you You laughing I'm saying for real That was a good one
Starting point is 00:45:38 I don't That was a good one Manny Manny Manny Fresh What's up bro What's up Whatanny Fresh. What's up, bro? What's up? What's happening, Chad?
Starting point is 00:45:46 What's up, baby? What's good? You good? Yeah, man, listen. I just left New Orleans, man, about three days ago. I'm feeling good. That's my second home now. For sure.
Starting point is 00:45:56 I saw you. I mean, I saw you claiming some wards and all of that, bro. Oh, yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. Every bit of it. Fresh, when you look back at your career, not that your career is done, when you look back at all the people that you've touched
Starting point is 00:46:12 and you've made beats for, what are you most proud of? Relationships, bro. Relationships. Better than the beats or whatever to bring people together and keep them together. You know, even like right now what's going on with my crew, like for us to get back together as men and go back out there 25, 26 years and, you know, and still getting. So I always tried to be the mediator for everybody. You know, even when I was doing a beat with somebody who was beefing with somebody i was like listen bro that's that's foolishness you know put that down and let's get it when like did you always want to be did you always want to be a producer what
Starting point is 00:46:55 did you always want to be in the music so how did this come about how did you get into and then it wasn't like you was just like any, you had some of the hottest rappers. Oh yeah. The Wayne's and the Juvia's and the hot, you had it all fresh. Yeah. So I started out as a DJ and even right now, you know, I'm a DJ. My dad was a DJ. So what got me to this was my dad.
Starting point is 00:47:16 You know, I used to have to hook my dad's stuff up. I used to have to, my dad was a street DJ. So, you know, like them holding the wall balls. Right. What a DJ do. Like, you know, like them holding the wall balls. Right. What a DJ do. Like, you know, a DJ actually puts you in a good mood. Like, you know, if your bills do, you're going through something, it's the DJ's job to make you feel good. Make you forget about that.
Starting point is 00:47:35 Forget about all of that. And, you know, and that spirit just came on me to be like, you know what, this is what I'm supposed to do. Yeah. And so outside of Pops, man, growing up, who were some other musical influences and how did they shape you or shape the sound? Your sound was different from everybody else. How did the sound develop you as a producer? Growing up in New Orleans, bro, it was music all over.
Starting point is 00:48:00 You know, everywhere you went, there was, you know, there was somebody playing something. So I just kind of put all of that together. And the way I call what I do is gumbo. I took elements from West Coast, you know, and down south and just made something that was mine. So, you know, you take a whole bunch of ingredients from everywhere. You know, when we was early New Orleans, you know, in the 80s, we like West Coast and East Coast songs. We didn't have our sound yet.
Starting point is 00:48:27 So, you know, and then Miami Bass came, and then we felt like the 808 is our sound. The 80s was definitely down south, you know, and I was like, okay. And I was like, let me take a little bit of this East Coast, a little bit of this West Coast, and mix it with some of this Luke. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:48:41 That's a good recipe. Yeah. Hey, right now, I'm going to think about the current state in New Orleans sports. You know, your Pelicans, your Saints. Yeah. Hey, right now, I'm going to think about the current state of New Orleans sports. You know, your Pelicans, your Saints. Yeah. How do you feel about the current state of sports in New Orleans? And what do you think, what is the vibe like? Obviously, during the season, I'm not able to be there.
Starting point is 00:48:58 I was there for Super Bowl. Yeah. That's my second home. You hear me? Yeah. So, what do you, why do you feel right now? One of the. Especially the yeah so one of the things you know let's just say new orleans is let's just say it new orleans is a party city so it's got a part on the athlete you know what i mean
Starting point is 00:49:16 there's a city where you know it never shuts down like you know so when you come there you got to come there with the you know like you got to be focused because you could easily get caught up into nothing close nobody ain't gonna tell you put that drink down you know what i'm saying and if you're athletes and you're hanging out with rappers it's just not gonna vibe it ain't gonna go right you feel me so yes that's one of the things we gotta fix like you know what i'm saying we ain't gonna say no the things we got to fix, like, you know what I'm saying? We ain't going to say no names, but we got a little bit of partying going on right now. So if we fix that, you're going to see an improvement in our teams, bro. Okay. Manny, when you look at it, you look at BG, Juvie, the hard boys, Lil Wayne, big timers.
Starting point is 00:49:58 How soon did you know that, you know what, that youngest one, the smallest one, he going to be him? Oh, bro, Wayne was the first one there one the smallest one yeah he gonna be him oh bro wayne was the first one there the last one to leave so you know when you when you when you and it was times where his mom might have took him out the group because he had bad grades or whatever and immediately he he improved you know because it was something that he was like i gotta figure this out like you know and he would beg his mom forever to get back into it but just like i said he and he knew like take for instance back that ass up um wayne knew to hang around for that song to get the last part of it to do that after you back it up then stop then what what what he was just like nah just this one of them you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:50:45 And you get that from hanging around, to be like, I'm going to hang around because I feel like this is one of those songs. Right. So we couldn't get rid of him when we was doing that song. What about the bling bling? How did he come up with the bling bling? It was always a line that was used in a song.
Starting point is 00:51:04 You know, like he would. And I was like, that's kind of clever, you know, and I always thought like it was something that stood out about it. It was something about, you know, it was it was bling that, you know, Wayne was the first person that I heard to say bling. No doubt. You know what I'm saying? But it was something clever about it. So I just had I don't know, like something just woke me up and was just like bling bling. Every time I come around your city, bling bling. You know, when I wrote the hook, I was like, it's something special about this. Pinky ring worth about 50. Yeah. I was like, something special about bling. Yeah.

What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that there's so many stories out there, and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide and hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets.
