You're listening to an iHeart Podcast.
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. We dive into the competitive world of streaming.
What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. 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.

That was dope. 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
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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,
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
$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
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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,
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,
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
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.
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.
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
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
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...
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?
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
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.
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.
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
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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,
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,
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,
boy,
if I had a dollar for every time. 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.

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.

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 Attorney General.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
In the South Ocho?
Yeah. It's king. Florida?
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Texas?
Texas A&M?
Over there too?
What?
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.
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
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.
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.
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,
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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
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
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
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.
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
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?
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
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.
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?
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.
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
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
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.
I got the damn dress all the way.
I mean,
the train,

But I tell them, I love, hey, my kids ain't, my kids ain't got no money.

So everybody got to go.
I got it.

Ooh,

rent this big-ass building, and I got
to have a photographer that's charging me $10,000
to take pictures. Man, you

In spaghetti
Hell nah
Yeah
I mean now people want to have lobster
And crab legs
And you know, and

Okay, how much is open bar?
On Twitter, I see that all the time. Everybody
say, don't invite me to your wedding if
you don't have open bar. Is open bar expensive?
A wedding or
a party or something. It should be open
bar. Okay, okay, okay, okay.
That's expensive, ain't it?
Yeah, drinks are expensive
you know how much drinks cost
I don't drink no alcohol
especially if you got deep throat ass
friends
you got alcoholic ass friends yeah
it's expensive
I mean I know if I go
if I were to have something
and my friend if I invite my
friends already know
I give you that
I had a party
one time and they asked
they asked me how many people was going to be there
I say probably about a hundred
and they started calculating they say a hundred people
will be there
all of them drank I say for the most part
I say probably 90 of them he say on average
they'll drink about how long is the party gonna be i say we're gonna start they start cooking
probably around eight stuff will be ready by noon people will start showing up by 12 30 and it's
gonna go to probably 10 30 they say if you get 90 if you. 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?
That's what I'm saying yes so i had
everybody because you know at that point in time mocho a lot of stuff so i had like
big bottles so i got like four bottles of uh belvedere four bottles of gray goose
four bottles of chopin i had five i'm getting you know a lot of stuff they ain't never had before
obviously they don't see they like seagrams but you know, a lot of stuff they ain't never had before. Obviously, they don't see
they like Seagram's, but you know, I got
some Bombay Sapphire. I got some
Tanger Ray. I got all the top notch stuff.
I got the crown and different
this. I had all, you know,
at the time, I had everything.
Yeah. And I just told
him, I said, look, whatever y'all, whatever
is open, y'all take
it with you.
It's like, for real? I said, bro, whatever you'all, whatever is open, y'all take it with you. It's like, for real?
I said, bro, whatever you, whatever you guys have open, y'all take it with you.
Hey, so I spent probably $4,000 on, on just on alcohol.
The beer was a, was a gift.
Right.
Um, but I spent about $4,000.
Oh, that's not, that's not bad.
That's not bad I mean I'm obviously for the setting
and the occasion
I brought so much of it
the guy gave me like a discount because I brought
so much of it
so open bar at a wedding it ain't
that expensive then
it all depends on how many people you got on show
I'm trying to figure out
who know this many people? I don't know
500 people.
You know 500 people?
I mean, I don't know 500
people, immediate people that need
to be at a goddamn
wedding. Nah, hell nah.

I ain't no shelter. Come one, come all, I'm't feeding your ass. I ain't no shelter.
Come one, come all, I'm a fear hell dog.
Y'all better give somebody
a no, no.
Mm-mm.
Oh, hell.

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.
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
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,
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,
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.
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
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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...
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
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.
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
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,
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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.

Laney Ray said,
great show, fellas.
Just need to send a shout out to our moderator crew.
It's been here from the beginning
and has dedicated likely hundreds of hours
to an amazing chat and show.
Hey, the Mod Squad,
y'all guys have been unbelievable.
Laney Ray,

Appreciate it.
Um, we can't thank you guys enough for the support, the love that you've given us from

So thank you very much.
That's everybody.
The mod squad, you guys do a great job of
keeping traffic flowing

That
concludes our episode of Nightcap.
We want to thank Rob Benjamin for stopping
by the Olympic 400-meter
hurdle champ, offering insights
to his race, talked about the 400
meters and how close they came to breaking the world record,
gave us some insight and said
what makes us so unbelievable at what she does.
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,
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.
Congratulations.
And we'll see you down the road.
