Starting point is 00:01:16 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. It became known as the Iran-Contra affair. The things that happened were so bizarre and insane, I can't begin to tell you. Please do.

That was dope. he just brought it up uh tyree fastest time with 20 uh in the next gen stat in high school right no in 2026 on 105 yard kickoff return that was nullified by holden he reached the top speed of 23.24. Noah Lyles in the 100-meter dash
Starting point is 00:03:29 reached the top speed of 27.09. I think when we think about Tyreek saying I can beat you, let's say what happens. Listen to me now, real quick. Stay with me now. If you take Tyreek, not football now i'm working if you take tyreek not football speed tyreek but you take tyreek uh doing track training
Starting point is 00:03:51 losing the weight and having the same type of training no allows does what do you think that and i mean no disrespect we don't know is the fastest man alive right now in the world what happens if you take as fast as Tyreek is? What happens if he has that Olympic-style training, let's say, for a year? And hypothetically speaking, him and Noah Lyles race. What happens? He not beat Noah Lyles.
Starting point is 00:04:16 Yeah. I mean, I'm just saying. Think about this. Think about Tyreek. Tyreek has no technique. His form, technique, it's all out of whack. He's just going. He's just fast. So imagine if
Starting point is 00:04:30 they tighten all that up. Mechanics, drive phase, his transition. I'm just curious. He can be faster than what he is right now. That's the scary part. He would have had Ocho. It's hard.
Starting point is 00:04:46 I mean, Tyreek really hadn't done this in a long period of time. And like you said, he's like muscle-bound now. He's a ball of muscle. He's probably going to pull something because he's bound so tight. No, seriously. No, he's bound tight.
Starting point is 00:05:01 To reach that speed, to reach that speed that they run, probably. That just tells you, it's a testament to how fast he is and how far behind everybody else is in the NFL when they think they fast. Yes. And my thing is, it's not worth the risk. When you pull a hamstring, he's not going to just pull a hamstring. He's probably going to probably rip it off the bone.
Starting point is 00:05:23 Yeah, you tear it off the bone, especially running at that high rate of speed. Nah, he not going to just pull a hamstring. He probably going to probably rip it off the bone. Yeah. You tear it off the bone, especially running at that high rate, that high rate of speed. Nah, he good. Hey, it's great fodder. I love talking about it, but look,
Starting point is 00:05:35 we know Tyreek had an outstanding, he's from Georgia. He went to coffee County, which is South of me a little further. It's probably about an hour, maybe 70 minutes from me. So I'm very familiar with the Trojan. I think Tyreek ran in high school.
Starting point is 00:05:49 He ran like 20.1. As a junior, he ran like 998 in college. Now think about that. If he ran 998 in college, right? Think about if he stuck with track. Think about how much faster that time would have continued to drop with the right training, getting stronger. Oh, yeah, for sure. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:13 And I think that's where he's coming from with saying, I could beat Noah Lyles. Matter of fact, you know what would be funny? For content purposes, if they line it up for real. Not the content purposes. That would be brilliant. Man, look here. it up for real. Not the content purposes. That would be brilliant. That would be brilliant. Ocho. Yes, sir. That man just got 90 million.
Starting point is 00:06:34 I'm going to get all 90 of that million. I ain't doing nothing to mess up my money. Do all that talking is fine. I ain't messing up my money, Ocho. It's just Ocho it's just running it's just running we've been running all our life
Starting point is 00:06:51 somebody call you out you already know what time it is you gotta line it up Jermaine Dawson tore his hamstring in the Pro Bowl he was never the same who? never, Jermaine Dawson, the center.
Starting point is 00:07:06 All-world center for the Pittsburgh Steelers. How he did that? The center? If I'm not mistaken, I think he was trying to chase Deion on the interception. Okay, that ain't funny. My bad, my bad. God forgive me for that. I gotta reach out to him
Starting point is 00:07:21 and see. God forgive me. Tyreek ran 990 and 100 meters at age 18. He ran 20.14, placing him sixth at the U.S. to qualify for the Olympic trials. But, look, I get it. And you see a lot of Noah's teammates rushed to his defense. Oh, yeah. Yeah, most definitely.
Starting point is 00:07:48 A lot of them. I mean, they were making fun. Even the Botswanans, they were making fun of that guy in a wheelchair. Yeah, I saw. Yeah, with the thing out. Listen, I mean, listen, when you're outlandish, you know, when you're a showman like that, and things don't go your way, that's what's going to happen. You know, people are going to
Starting point is 00:08:08 do that. So I think he understands that coming from the territory. And listen, right back to the drawing board. Right back to the drawing board. It's the way it is. Now, if you were quiet and didn't say anything and just went on about your business and just ran, then nobody would say anything.
Starting point is 00:08:29 But you have to understand, you understand what comes along with that yeah when you're outgoing when you're that's what people want to see all he get yeah because he did all that bragging people want to see floyd get beat he did all that bragging so when you brag a lot jack johnson they want to see him get beat they're like oh no no you're supposed to be humble no that's what you're supposed to be. I'm supposed to be me. Yeah, I ain't dimming my light for nobody. Yeah, just for you. Man, that was great. Over the next
Starting point is 00:08:53 several weeks, we're going to probably get all the Olympians that had success, the gold medals, the world record. We've already had Bobby Finkel and we just had Rock. We had Q on. We're going to get get Vernon we're going to get the mixed relay team so we're going to get some of the swimmers on they're going to stop by
Starting point is 00:09:10 and give us an opportunity to talk to them and for our audience nightcap audience to see these young men and women and congratulate them on their success so I was proud I was man I was happy for all of them but i was really
Starting point is 00:09:26 happy for rye because i know i know over the last three years what he had been going through like i said you know going you know no matter what the case may be i will let him know hey bro hey you all right yeah you are you all right so uh i was so happy when he won that race because i know what it meant to him to win. I know what he put into it to win. And sometimes Ocho, you can do everything right and it still doesn't work out. It's just not your time.
Starting point is 00:09:54 But nothing makes you feel better than when a plan comes together. You know what I'm saying, Ocho? When you see it and that thing laid out, you and I, we put, hey, I call you up and say, Ocho, hey, I got this idea. Doug, I got an idea. Man, Ocho in town.
Starting point is 00:10:10 Hey, man, can y'all meet me at such and such? Okay. Ocho, this is what I'm thinking. Man, I'm in. You on it, but I'm in. If you do it, I'm in. That's else. I'm in. Now look. That's it. Ocho, Jim Harbaugh. Now look. That's it.
Starting point is 00:10:26 I don't take much convincing. Go ahead. I said I don't take much convincing. Especially something like that. I can be myself. I can talk and I need a mic. Sign me up. Jim Harbaugh wants to hire Colin Kaepernick
Starting point is 00:10:41 for the Chargers staff. While Colin Kaepernick is 36 years of age, recently told Sky Reports he still wants to play in the NFL. New Chargers coach contends he wants his former quarterback in the NFL as a member of his coaching staff. Farmer said if that's ever a path he wants to take, I think it would be tremendous. He'd be a tremendous coach if that's the path he choose.
Starting point is 00:11:10 I mean, i like it going back to seven years ago what kaepernick was standing for the message behind it uh the social injustice issues yep uh the police brutality issues I like everything he did. But what he has to understand and wanting to come back to the NFL, wanting to play quarterback. He has to understand. The difference in. When you want to be an activist along with along with activism. Come sacrifice. Yes. Along with activism come sacrifice yes along with activism come sacrifice so what you did is you sacrifice your career because there's 32 owners that well if that's
Starting point is 00:11:55 what you want to do you can do that but what you won't be doing is doing it on our time when we're playing you to play a pacific sport oh jo, what's the likelihood you're able to sue someone and then still go able to work for that organization? Yeah, that's very difficult, especially after that. You won that settlement, and to think that they would let you back? Well, listen, how about giving the money back? Do you think that would have been a... Hell no, I ain't giving no money. Where they do that at? Who give money back? Listen, but stay giving the money back? Do you think that would have been a... Hell no, I ain't giving no money.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Where they do that at? Who give money back? Listen, but stay with me now. This is something. If I want to get back into the NFL, let's say back then, after seven years, after seven years, it's not likely. But back then, I think in some type of meeting,
Starting point is 00:12:40 I would have had some type of talk where, listen, no lawsuit. All I ask is you give me an opportunity to play the game that I love and I cherish. Please. No. No? That money, I done invested it. I done bought some treasury bills. I ain't give it.
Starting point is 00:12:59 I ain't give it. Okay, Shannon, give the money back so you can do X. No, I'm going to stay right here. I'm good. Yeah. I ain't give no the option. Okay, Shannon, give the money back so you can do X. No, I'm going to stay right here. I'm good. Yeah. I ain't giving no money back. Hell no.
Starting point is 00:13:11 You shut up. But I understand. Listen, I love what Madol was standing for, though. I love what he was standing for. But if you understand these owners and you know what their bottom line is, and they will show the signs of painting the end zones or putting the stickers on the helmets, you know. That's optics. Optics.
Starting point is 00:13:33 Aesthetics. It really means nothing. And it went away fast. It went away fast. And it's back to the order of business. So, again, you again, with activism, with activism, comes sacrifice.
Starting point is 00:13:50 And the sacrifice was the career. It's unfortunate. I think everybody know how I felt about Colin Kaepernick. I was one of the few on television that we spoke about it. It just so happens that when I got the Fox Undisputed, we talked about it. Yeah. It just so happens that when I got the Fox Undisputed, we talked about it every single day, multiple times a day, like three months.
Starting point is 00:14:11 We were the even when all the other shows had gone away from it. We were still hammering. Because I believe I believe Cap was right. I understood what he was standing for. He told you what he was doing that for. And people still still didn't want to hear it.. Well, you know, don't talk about it. I don't, you know, I said, hold on. If you got cancer and your doctor told you to go home, we ain't going to talk about it. We will check back in six months. You going to listen to that? So you think if you don't talk
Starting point is 00:14:38 about racism, it goes away. Yeah. Come on now. You know, when you think about it listen there's certain things you can fight for right yes there's certain things you can fight for that are never going away yeah some things are never going to change no matter what now you have to think about they've taken off the hoods they don't wear the hoods no more they don't wear the bed sheets with the eyes cut out they don't do that no more but what they do with where they are now is they're in positions of power yeah that's always been the way they're wearing suits and ties they're wearing badges they have they hold the gavels you know i mean it's it's just the lay of the land it's the lay of the landscape and it's the way it will always be i love fighting the good fight but it
Starting point is 00:15:25 it it's it's such a fuck it's such a touchy it's such a touchy subject the fact that we've been fighting this long and we still gonna keep fighting and and when you and i are gone we still gonna be fighting the same fight yeah it just it's it's it's unfortunate and it just it's crazy when you think about life. You think about how far we've come. You think we've come a long way. And the one thing about history is it repeats itself. If you look at what's going around, or if you look back,
Starting point is 00:15:56 and I don't really get into politics like that, but I pay attention. I pay attention. History repeats itself. And if you're paying attention when it comes to politics, if you're paying attention when it comes to politics if you're paying attention to some of the laws that are being changed right up on that nose but they're using different tactics to distract us from what's going on i mean i see it and i'm paying attention it's it's it's crazy it's crazy it's crazy and it's unfortunate. Chief Chris Jones offers to pay
Starting point is 00:16:26 $1.5 million worth of chicken wings that was stolen by a cafeteria worker and sent us Vera Liddell, who's working as a cafeteria consultant for the Illinois School District, admitted stealing $1.5 million
Starting point is 00:16:42 worth of chicken wings. God, 11,000 cases between July of 2020 and February of 2022. The chicken wings were intended for underprivileged children receiving free lunches during the pandemic shutdown. Ocho, does she got a wing? Does she got a wing? Stop. Man, listen, I don't know what's going on,
Starting point is 00:17:04 but I think I know what she probably was doing is she was taking the chicken and obviously, you know, you know she wasn't eating it. She was selling it on the side. She was selling it on the side. Yeah. I like Chris's idea.
Starting point is 00:17:15 I like Chris Jones' idea and wanting to pay the money back. But, you know, they're not letting out. They're not letting out simply because not only were you stealing, but you were stealing from underprivileged kids. Underprivileged kids. And then the consortium, she knew where that was supposed to go.
Starting point is 00:17:29 Oh, yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's unfortunate. But listen, kudos to my dog, Chris Black. That's stand-up. That's real stand-up shit. They even offer to do. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:17:40 I like law. I mean, I guess, you know, desperate time calls for desperate measures. But I'm over here cooking, huh? God damn. I see. My AC out. The AC man will be here tomorrow, man.
Starting point is 00:17:56 I'm not, uh, I'm not, uh, I'm not taking for somebody that's I mean, they're underprivileged kids. I mean, the kids. Yeah. I mean, during the pandemic. Mm.
Starting point is 00:18:16 I mean, hey, kudos to you, CJ, for doing that. That's a tremendous gesture. But, man, I just don't have a whole lot of sympathy for people that pray on the weak. I don't, Ocho. Kids,
Starting point is 00:18:35 elderly, and animals, things that can't defend themselves, that can't fight back, I'm out. I ain't got no excuse. Don't even bring me your excuse, because I ain't trying no excuse. I don't even hear it. Don't even bring me your excuse because I ain't trying to hear it. When it comes to kids, the elderly,
Starting point is 00:18:49 and animals, I'm out. I'm with you. I'm with you and you're right now. I'm definitely with you and you're right. So, Jordan Childs is finally opening up about losing her Olympic bronze medal. She stated that she felt the decision to give the honor to whatever the Romanian,
Starting point is 00:19:10 honor Barber suit in wake of the alleged invalid challenge was unjust, calling a significant blow not just to me, but to everyone who has championed my journey. To make matters worse, she added, to receive the unpronationally driven attacks and wake up the officials ruling. But she appeared positive at some point in the future she'll get her bronze back around her neck. Flavor Flav also gave her a bronze
Starting point is 00:19:35 clock to replace the metal. It's man, they'd be but they don't like Americans. Man, they'd be... But they don't like Americans. Every chance they get, they try to bend us over a barrel, Ocho. Yeah, every time.
Starting point is 00:19:56 They don't like us, especially when it comes to events like this where we somewhat dominate most of the competitions. Obviously, China is very good is very good very good as well but for the most part we dominate and everything so anytime they have a chance to stick it to us they will do it especially with the reason they gave behind it now i if i'm not mistaken they did appeal right yes was it upheld or? Yeah. Yeah. It was denied. Oh, that's tough.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Yes. She did steal from. Yes. There's like, did that lady really steal? No. Here's the thing. The chicken wings were intended for underprivileged children that were receiving free lunches during the pandemic shutdown. Black, white, Hispanic, Asian, it does
Starting point is 00:20:46 not matter. I have no sympathy if you do something for people that cannot help themselves. Kids, elderly, and animals, I got no sympathy for you. So you can take that Justin Timberlake and cry me a river
Starting point is 00:21:02 and take it somewhere else. Because I ain't trying to hear it. I've always been like that. Y'all know my record. It speaks for itself. Wait, somebody trying to play the black card? Yeah, they're talking about, oh, how do we know? Stop it. Y'all will do anything. Y'all try to...
Starting point is 00:21:17 That's the problem with the world. They always trying to justify everything. Just see what it is. I'm like... always trying to justify everything. Just see what it is. I understand. Maybe I should, you know what I mean? That got me in trouble. What?
Starting point is 00:21:36 Say it. I don't know. Go to Mississippi and ask. Why the guy that did something similar, miss? I don't know. I'm just, and I spoke out against that. Oh know you're talking about i know you're talking about cost me 750 000 attorney fees where y'all at on that y'all got so much to say oh don't do this oh don't stop where's my
Starting point is 00:21:58 750 000 that i paid these attorneys in dc to defend black ass. So while y'all bumping y'all gums, talking about what Shannon don't do, ain't nobody did that. Where's it going to fund me? It's always going to be the same thing. Yeah. Somebody that does something against kids, the elderly and animal, I got nothing.
Starting point is 00:22:23 They give you 100 years. Oh, well, do it. And I ain't putting nothing on your books. I don't care if it's my kids, my brother. I don't care. I don't have sympathy for anybody that preys on the weak.
Starting point is 00:22:38 I view the weak as the elderly, kids, and animals. I'm out. I commend CJ, but that ain't me. I'm out. I commend CJ, but that ain't me. I got a question. Now, what about
Starting point is 00:22:53 us scammers now? How you feel about us scammers? We don't pray on the weak. We pray on, we rob Peter to pay Paul. How you feel? I'm a Yahoo boy. How you feel about us? Just. What you mean? Hell no!
Starting point is 00:23:09 Hell, I'm Peter! You invited me here or not? Oh, no, I don't know. Not you. I'm talking about, no, the other Peter. They, Peter, Peter sit up top. He way up there. Oh, Ocho. Yeah. When you take something. Right, right, right. With the intent, and you know it's for the elderly, you know it's for kids.
Starting point is 00:23:29 Yeah, okay. Come on, man. Yeah. That's crazy. I'm like, why do you get a manable? Who's trying to justify it? Somebody in the chat was trying to justify it. Of course.
Starting point is 00:23:41 But my thing is that for me, i'm just very simplistic in my approach i don't i'm huge i'm huge on accountability right i'm huge if i'm wrong ocho my grandfather tell my brother me and my brother this all the time he said so i'll never be too big never be too prideful never be too nothing to accept responsibility and accountability. I don't care if I got a zillion dollars. If I'm wrong, I'm going to be man enough to say I was wrong.
Starting point is 00:24:13 I'm going to accept responsibility for my actions. I'm going to be accountable for what I did. The greatest apology is change behavior. That's me. Everybody look at it. Okay, that's not how y'all want to do it hey i ain't here to try i ain't trying to but i'm just saying for me kids elderly man come on man people that can't defend themselves yeah you know kids i mean the kids hungry y'all see i don't know if anybody know, but I know what it's like.
Starting point is 00:24:45 I didn't have the most. I mean, sometimes we just ate bread. We didn't have what I got now, the ability to go and I can eat whatever I want to eat whenever I want to eat it. My grandmother gave us and I ate what I ate because, Ocho, we have a choice.
Starting point is 00:25:02 Y'all think it seems like, man, you ate raccoon, you would have ate it too. Y'all ate turtle and possum and squirrel and rabbit, yep, you would have ate it too. Listen, you snuck one in there on me, and you was cooking, and I didn't want to interrupt you. But I sure got me something I could use in my next argument with Rell.
Starting point is 00:25:21 Now, the greatest apology is changed behavior. Yes. Next time she get the cussing and acting like we in the goddamn army and then she the lieutenant and i'm some goddamn uh cadet i'm gonna use that now the greatest apology has changed but yeah yeah yes but that was a good that was a gym right there boy that was a gym. It asked me where her ass at now. Where she at, Ocho? It goddamn Turks with my daughter and her homegirls.
Starting point is 00:25:50 She done went back to Turks and Caicos again? Back to goddamn Turks and Caicos. My second to oldest daughter. One of her homegirls' birthday. Wow. And here I am again. You see what I'm talking about? Now, where I'm'm at i'm at home
Starting point is 00:26:05 now i really can't complain because she paid the bills and i i'm a stay-at-home father but the fact that well goddamn i just argued with you on the on the last show about being present in the household and here you go your light-skinned ass gone again but it's cool don't trip go, your light-skinned ass gone again. But it's cool. Don't trip. The greatest apology is change behavior. God damn, that's a good one.
Starting point is 00:26:33 Yeah. Don't never be too big. Don't never be too prideful to say, I'm sorry. I was wrong. Sometimes people think, well, that's oh, because if you'd have done this this and this he shouldn't have to apologize if you've done that that that you shouldn't have to apologize no you're wrong yeah if you're wrong you apologize simple short concise
Starting point is 00:26:59 hard thing yeah i mean when i apologize i don't write it down because i want you to speak for my heart i don't want you to think it's rehearsed right i did what i did at the lakers game i came right out there looked into the camera no work i spoke from my heart i was wrong dead ass whatever fox decided would have decided to do i didn't eat it. That's what you do. But, man, people just, I just, I don't get it. Like I said, that's one of the mistakes that I make, Ocho,
Starting point is 00:27:34 is that I think sometimes that I'm expecting people to see things. Like you do. That's the hard part. That's the hard part. And that comes with growth. Expecting you from other people,
Starting point is 00:27:48 you learn that the hard way. You learn that the hard way and it comes through experience and trial and error with dealing with people. Very hard. If you're a certain way and would react a certain way to certain situations and you expect people to treat you the way you treat them,
Starting point is 00:28:03 boy, if I had a dollar for every time.

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.
Starting point is 00:28:34 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.

Starting point is 00:29:04 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, for a conversation that's anything but ordinary.

Starting point is 00:31:36 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,
Starting point is 00:32:04 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.
Starting point is 00:32:34 Listen to Ali and Me, now on Audible. Ocho, the college football playoff will no longer use conference titles as a tiebreaker to determine its field, given the five highest-ranked conference winners will receive automatic bids into the 12-team tournament. The college football playoff made that announcement today. The college football playoff had four teams for the past 10 years, but will now triple the number of playoff participants.
Starting point is 00:33:06 The top four-ranked conference winners will get first round buys. The other tiebreakers are still in place, including strength of schedule and head-to-head results. You like that, Ocho? Yeah, it's cool. I could be honest with you because I could be honest with you.
Starting point is 00:33:22 I can be honest with the chat. I don't really watch too much college football. Well, you better start. Yeah, I mean. Because we don't have to start talking about college football. Man, I'm ready. So what I've always done in the past and the fact that we really haven't had college football to talk about up until this point, right, is Malik neighbors, the big names. Devontae Smith, When they was in college, I would always watch if they were playing and it was going to be on TV.
Starting point is 00:33:49 For some reason, I always wanted to pay attention and see what the hype was about certain individuals and certain players that were up for Heisman. And I watched games like that, but I'm like sitting back, just watching college for some reason. I'm not going to say it's boring because I've heard people say that they enjoy college football much more than pro the nfl which is i didn't understand
Starting point is 00:34:10 it until i went to a lsu game with my daughter she went on a visit we went to a lsu game and oh my gosh now i can see now the atmosphere puts the nfl shame. Oh, yeah. The atmosphere at LSU. You got the new college kids, man. And I went to an LSU game on a visit with her, and I went to a Tennessee game. LSU and Tennessee put every NFL atmosphere to shame. And I mean no disrespect to any of the teams and their fans. It just does. They didn't sit down the whole game.
Starting point is 00:34:44 Oh, Joe, that's the South. Football is king in the South. I ain't sit down the whole game. Oh, Joe, that's the South. Football is king in the South. I ain't never seen nothing like that. Remember, I played at Oregon State. I don't know what they do in Oregon. Oregon State, the Oregon, I know they got the big uniforms and all that, but when it comes to football, it's
Starting point is 00:35:00 in the South. So what other schools are like that? Tennessee, Georgia, Clemson. Name a school in the South. So what other schools are like that? Tennessee, Georgia, Clemson. Georgia like that too? Name a school in the South. So all of them is like Tennessee and LSU was? Yes. Alabama, yes.
Starting point is 00:35:16 Boy. They just have a bunch of fans, but Alabama is going to pack 100,000 in there. Georgia is going to do 90,000. Right. Yes. Aub 90,000. Right. Yes. Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:35:31 In the South Ocho? Yeah. It's king. Florida? Absolutely. Absolutely. Texas? Texas A&M? Over there too? What?
Starting point is 00:35:47 Man. Texas A&M put back $105,000, $106,000, $108,000. Wait, they got that many? How did they stadium sit that many damn people? They added the house that Johnny built.
Starting point is 00:36:00 They got that long money down there. Texas A&M? They got that oil money. They got that long money down there. They got that long... They got that oil money. They got that oil money. That NIA money, huh? What? Man, how you think Jimbo
Starting point is 00:36:14 had the number one recruiting class a couple years in a row? Why he win no national championship then? Because he ain't co-saving. It take more than the money, huh? Yeah. But you can get them. Might huh? Yeah, but you can get them. Might not keep them, but you can get them. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:31 Ocho, a man is confused to why people are declining his wedding invitation. Ocho, let's take a look at this video. Yes, sir. All right, T-Talk, tell me if I'm tripping or not. So me and my fiance, we are getting married, right? And to be a part of our wedding, you have to pay $450 for a ticket. And that's for each guest. So we invited friends and family to our wedding. Tell me why everybody that we invited has declined the invitation.
Starting point is 00:36:56 We already have spent 100, maybe almost close to $200,000 on a wedding. We have already pre-ordered the cake. We already put down a deposit for the venue. We've already got the wedding dress. Everything. We pay for everything for the wedding. DJ, photographer, everything for the wedding. And what I don't understand is that y'all spend 400, more money,
Starting point is 00:37:20 more money on stupid stuff, but you can't come out to support your family and your friends at a wedding. Like, tell me if I'm wrong. Is we wrong? Let me know. Because y'all pay for tickets. Beyonce tickets, $1,000 tickets. Y'all
Starting point is 00:37:33 going to go meet Chris Brown for $1,000 something dollars, but when it comes to your friends and your family, you can't pay the ticket? These weddings ain't cheap. The weddings ain't cheap. What's the weddings ain't cheap. Like, what's going on? Like, I don't get it. Like, let us know are we wrong for charging for a
Starting point is 00:37:50 wedding. You dead ass wrong. I'm coming to see you paying no goddamn money to come see you get married in this goddamn economy, man. He gonna talk about, we look a bit close to $150,000, $200,000. Y'all are damn fools.
Starting point is 00:38:06 You ain't got it. If you got to charge for a wedding, your ass shouldn't be getting married. I wish I might pay for somebody's wedding. Hold on. You're going to charge everybody $450 to try to recoup the money that you paid for the wedding, which it shouldn't even be that much. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me if I'm wrong. Chat, y'all help me out.
Starting point is 00:38:32 Please give me an amount on how much a wedding should cost. Let's start there. I want to break it down into parts. How much does a wedding cost? You know better than me, Unc. I'm just asking you. The question is how bad do you want to impress somebody? And that'll dictate the cost of your wedding.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Okay, now you're talking. You see, they don't spend $200,000. Now, unless her daddy worth about $10, $15, $20, $30 million, I wish my daughter would come to me and talk about, y'all better take this money for a down payment on the house and get y'all ass on up out of here. I'll come stand beside you in the court and just have a piece. So $200,000, that's too extravagant.
Starting point is 00:39:15 That's way too much for a wedding. What? For a wedding? And half the people that don't even like the gruel or the bride. Right. They just coming to be nosy, huh? So, Chad, help me out, Chad. Please give me the numbers because I'm, listen, and you don't even know I'm
Starting point is 00:39:31 playing the C right now. I keep asking you for a reason now. Yeah, but Ocho, here's the thing, Ocho. Normally, the father, I got two daughters. Yeah. They already know. My daughters already say, oh, if you think my daddy gonna pay X, Y, and Z, that ain't happen.
Starting point is 00:39:50 Destination wedding if you want to. Okay. I wish I might pay $400 to go to somebody else's wedding. And then he go, he got the dirt. Stop counting my pockets. Oh, y'all spending money on frivolous stuff.
Starting point is 00:40:10 That's my money. Don't worry about what I spend my money on. I just ain't spending $450 to go to no wedding. So if I want to take $450, if I want to take $4,000 and buy a Beyonce ticket, if I want to take $10,000 and buy a Beyonce ticket, if I want to take $10,000 and buy a Beyonce ticket or go to the Super Bowl, that ain't none of your business.
Starting point is 00:40:31 Support family and friends means I'm going to show up. If you got a business, let's say Ocho, you got a restaurant. I ain't coming to eat free. I'm going to pay for my meal. I'm going to tip the servers. If you got a business where you're selling T-shirts or clothing, I support you.
Starting point is 00:40:48 But if you think for one second, I'm going to pay $450 to go see your funky ass wedding. Man, you out your mind. Hey, the chat, I didn't see nothing over 50 grand. I'm reading the chat and everybody in the chat said 50 grand is a max for a wedding. Now, when it comes to weddings, I love the fairy tale ending. I love little girls that are raised, you know, watching movies and being taught and groomed into that happy ending and actually making that come true and living that dream or living that fairy tale. But at what cost? And in today's era of women and aesthetics and social media, like, do women really want to be, do they want to have weddings?
Starting point is 00:41:37 I think they want to have weddings. They don't want to be married. I think that's the disconnect. They like the weddings, the aesthetics, the pretty, the changing outfits, but they don't like what actual marriage entails, there's a difference I would break it down right now, but I'm not
Starting point is 00:41:54 going to break it down because we don't have that kind of time the more extravagant the wedding the shorter the wedding the shorter the marriage the more extravagant, the short. Go look at all those Hollywood stars
Starting point is 00:42:07 that spent all that money. Right. One million, 500,000, 200,000 and see how long they stayed. Now go look at the ones that had the little quaint wedding
Starting point is 00:42:18 that went to the church or they went to justice or the peace. Right. Because you got a big ass wedding. You just try, man, you, man, I know a dude had a homeboy man. Joe got married. Custom suit, custom gator shoes.
Starting point is 00:42:34 What happened? Was married by the long as a snowball in the microwave. You would marry what? How long? Along with a snowball in the what? How long? As long as the snowball in the back of the way. How long that land? Man, please. Paying all
Starting point is 00:42:52 that money. $200,000. $200,000 for what? What are you paying $200,000 for, Ocho? What? I'm just trying to figure. What you renting out? The Taj Mahal? What you renting out? The White House? Hey, listen. What y'all eat?
Starting point is 00:43:08 Caviar? Lobster? That's a great topic. Because I have no idea on how much weddings actually cost. And the funny thing about it is I keep asking purposely because you already know who is doing all the planning. And I'm curious to what that bill going to look like. Because we ain't going too far now. We're going right to
Starting point is 00:43:30 the Bahamas. I mean, that's a 30 minute flight. Hey, I gave my daughters a budget. You got a budget. Whatever you do after that. I mean, I don't want to be in your business, but what number you said? $30,000.
Starting point is 00:43:45 Okay. So you can have a wedding with $30,000? I don't know what you can have. I ain't the one getting married. I don't give a damn. Hey, they better go get one of them fried. Hey, hey, hey, y'all from the South. Y'all know about that fried catfish and spaghetti plate?
Starting point is 00:44:06 Hey, I know somebody who hooked that thing right on up. What they charge by the plate? $10.50 a head. Spaghetti, fried catfish, a piece of cornbread, and a styrofoam cup of sweet tea. That's all you're getting. Man, I'm not finna go. Just because they did it. Oh, hell no, man. Man, I'm not finna go. Just because they did it.
Starting point is 00:44:27 I wish I might. Take that money and put a down payment on the house. Man, you crazy, don't you? Man, I wish I might put all that money for my daughter just cause I got it but you got me crying somebody said but oh you helping these fish spaghetti to wear to hell yeah
Starting point is 00:44:59 yeah yeah talk about oh dude asshole we getting our money back if y'all get divorced I'm gonna need a receipt hell nah man please man they be doing too much Ocho now I'm just trying to figure out
Starting point is 00:45:21 when do we get to this point where we just tried to impress everything? Somebody got, man, somebody had a wedding. Well, I gotta, I gotta have a bigger wedding.
Starting point is 00:45:29 I got the damn dress all the way. I mean, the train, man, you gotta have a train, have a flatbed brain to train. And I was like, come on now.

Let's just say you have 100 people. 90 of them drink. They'll drink at least four beers apiece. You're going to lead at least 360 beers. There's 12 beers in a case. What about the hard liquor?

Starting point is 01:00:05 And you got your own space. I mean, when I lived with my grandma, Ocho, I never stayed at home. Once I left my grandmother's home, when I come back to visit, I got a hotel. Yeah. Because a lot of times, I wasn't married. I have my girlfriend with me.
Starting point is 01:00:20 I ain't sleeping in the same room under my grandma's room. I'm paying the bill. That ain't happening. That was never going to happen. So I stayed. Hey, no. You like me. I was content. You remember
Starting point is 01:00:37 where I was at? I was happy. I had my little condo. I had my little 85 paint behind me. This one go here. It's enough of this little shit. Yeah, but look, like I said, most of the time, it's only going to be my sister,
Starting point is 01:00:59 my mom, one of the kids will come. We alternate. It's my turn Christmas this year. I get them for Christmas. Mom got Thanksgiving. Everybody's going to be here. My mom, my sister, my kids,
Starting point is 01:01:16 everybody's going to be here. They're going to be in and out. I got plenty of room. Besides, my mom is going to want to stay. My mom coming with some of her friends, coming to the casino. She's like, you going to stay with your son? No, I'm going to stay at the casino.
Starting point is 01:01:31 He ain't going to want to take me to the casino. Okay. She don't want to tell me, I won't take her to the casino. Yeah, I'll take you to the casino. But you ain't going to get your mom in there. When you come to Vegas, yeah I'll take you to the casino but you ain't gonna get your mom when you come to Vegas I thought you had some
Starting point is 01:01:50 who comes to Vegas with nothing you come to Vegas with your friends man oh man come on man for me man I just I understand women But man, come on, man. Come on, people. For me, man, I just understand women. Look, I understand
Starting point is 01:02:10 you looking for Mr. Right, but at some point in time, see, the problem we're having here, Ocho, is that we have non-traditional women want to live a traditional life. They want a life like their mom or their grandma.
Starting point is 01:02:28 Well, not these moms, because some of these moms was like, they had their kid at 15. And so they farted and they got a 23-year-old daughter. But I'm saying like grandma and great-grandma, traditional role, a lot of times
Starting point is 01:02:44 the father worked and the wife, the years of the road a lot of times the father worked and and and and and and the wife the mom stayed home she cooked she cleaned y'all don't your cake cook you don't want to clean i ain't no maid i ain't no cook you ain't no you ain't no damn part either now get the hell up out of here now you, what you keep telling me is what you're not. Yeah. But you keep telling me what I am. Something don't correlate. Something's not jiving.
Starting point is 01:03:14 You can't be non-traditional but want a traditional life. It's difficult. It's difficult. It's always been a tug and pull. It's always been a tug and pull it's always been oh you ain't oh you can't do this uh i need a g wagon i need this i need an ap i need a padded i need an llc i got a homeboy named lc That's the only LC I know.
Starting point is 01:03:46 And I definitely can put another L in front of it. You gotta think the percentage of dudes that are buying the G-wagons and the APs is a very, very small. It's a very small percentage of them. I ain't got no problem with you, bro.
Starting point is 01:04:01 I'm never gonna hate on you. You got it like that, take off. I'm not gonna hate on you you got it like that take off I'm not gonna hate on the females that can get it women I'm sorry I don't wanna be disrespectful women that can get it get it yeah but you gotta understand I don't know who ain't gonna give it to you
Starting point is 01:04:17 yeah it messes up it messes up because when some see that and think it's possible well shit that should be me too so whoever i'm dating is gonna have to come hard just like that but it ain't it's not it's not reality social media and all this all these bags and all this cars like this it's not that's not reality it's very difficult to maintain and live that lifestyle consistently. It's damn near impossible. When you think about it, like it's not real.
Starting point is 01:04:50 The era we in is like it's really, really, really messed up. It's really messed up. Everybody looking like they got it. Anybody that can get it, Ocho, if they can get it, more power to you. But you have to realize there's only a very select few people that can... See, you trying to trick a guy that ain't got nothing to trick off. Ocho, how you gonna trick...
Starting point is 01:05:11 How you trying to trick a guy that's making $50,000 or $75,000 or $100,000? You can't trick him because he ain't got it. Not with what you want. And the dudes that do got... And the funny thing about it and the dude that do got seven eight figures to get that and the funny thing about it is the dudes that do have it the small percentage of them they get the pick from
Starting point is 01:05:32 the whole goddamn little because everybody want what they got so they're getting any and everybody they want so it leaves the hard-working nine-five guy out to pick up from the scraps. And I'm not saying scraps like that in the sense of the scraps that swim out of it. Everybody says, Ocho, oh, I can date a school teacher. I can date a bus driver. No, you won't. Not when you've been in that environment. When you've been on the private planes.
Starting point is 01:06:04 When you've flown first class. When when you've been on the private planes, when you've flown first class, when you've stayed at a five-star hotel. You ain't dating that. Yeah, you ain't going backwards. You ain't going backwards. Once you get a taste of their lifestyle, it's a wrap. Most of the time, Ocho, the guy
Starting point is 01:06:20 that you're talking about that you would date, which I know a lot, they can't get in the places that you are. So how are you you gonna meet them? You ain't gonna get that guy pull up. See, the difference between a guy and a guy, a man and a female,
Starting point is 01:06:37 is that you'll see a fine woman at the bus stop. A guy'll see a fine woman at the bus stop. If she fine, he'll stop that car and get her number. A woman, a dude riding the bus, I don't give a high five to you.
Starting point is 01:06:53 She ain't stopping. That's beneath her. Mm-hmm. Yeah. You do your thing. I live in my little world I got my own little bubble I'm cool you ain't gonna never get mad you got too many
Starting point is 01:07:12 kinks you got too many issues where you weren't a candidate so why you worried about it it's tough it's not a crazy topic but it's just i mean a little delusion expectations are high not realistic but i and i love i want all i want all all women to to to strive and want the best for them i I mean, that, that, that's great. But at some point we have to be realistic and, and our expectations.
Starting point is 01:07:49 And I'm not going to say never Ocho, not to cut you off. I'm not going to say never, but more times than not, you will see a man will date and fall in love with a woman and any income. Yeah. It's a rarity. Very rare.
Starting point is 01:08:02 You will find a woman that's high value of a certain net worth fall in love with someone. It happened. It's happened. Yeah. Yeah. That's crazy. That's crazy. But there are more
Starting point is 01:08:19 stories about pretty woman involving Richard Gere and Julia Roberts than vice versa. Yeah. But y'all got some unrealistic. Y'all need to come down with some of these expectations and what y'all think. Because everybody ain't
Starting point is 01:08:37 making NBA and NFL and MLB money. And if they do, but see, here's the thing, Ocho. And if they do but see here's the thing Ocho we play with guys they got two or three, paying for two or three apartments two or three cars
Starting point is 01:08:55 and then when the money stop, and then when it go and the girl gone, she gone too why she wanna stay, you ain't got no money you can't keep paying for that apartment you can't keep paying for that condo, you can't keep paying for that apartment. You can't keep paying for that condo. You can't keep paying for that house. Why would she stay? On to the next.
Starting point is 01:09:10 It's a different game. It's a dirty game. It's a dirty game, but the game is a game. The game has always been a game. You understand? I mean, at that level, you understand.
Starting point is 01:09:20 You know why she's there. Mm-hmm. Because you know what, Ocho? The biggest financial crisis is that people will spend money they don't have to prove that they got it. Think about it.
Starting point is 01:09:37 Yeah. I've been preaching it for the past 20 plus years. Let's finish out strong, Ocho. Last segment of the night is Q&A. Hey, boy, tonight was good, boy. That goddamn laugh, boy. You got my stomach hurting, boy. God damn.

Starting point is 01:16:13 Shouted his coach out, Quincy Watts. I think his hurling coach is Joanna Hayes. She won the Olympic gold medal, I think, in 2008, 2004, 2008. But we want to congratulate all these coaches because it's just not, I think most of these athletes have coaches, Ocho. So they don't get this far. They have support staff, family, friends,
Starting point is 01:16:36 loved ones, coaches that's been there. So we want to make sure that we give them the kudos, although the athlete's the main one that gets the credit because they're on TV that's doing the activity. So thank you, Rod Gang. Best of luck.
