Okay. The Falcons had a bold off-season move in the NFL, signing Kirk Cousins to a four-year, $180 million deal. Also drafted Michael Penix Jr. with the number eight pick in that 2024 NFL draft. Team owner Arthur Blank made the case for why fathers whom he labeled independent thinkers were wise to allocate a substantial resource to a pair of quarterbacks. Just listening to our coaching staff and our personnel department, they made a decision.

Michael was going to be available at number eight. They saw an extraordinary talent. Kirk Cousins is our franchise starting quarterback, is our franchise quarterback, is our starting quarterback. What'd you think about that? You like that, Ocho? Yeah, most definitely. Most definitely.

Listen, Kirk Cousins is great. He's great in the postseason. I think if I'm not mistaken, Kirk Cousins has, I'm sorry, in the regular season think if I'm not mistaken, Kirk Cousins has one playoff victory. And I'm not sure in how many years, but he is stellar. He is stellar in the postseason. Drake London, Kyle Pitts, B. John Robinson are going to pay tremendous dividends with having him at the helm. He's great. But again, we understand how difficult it is for a team. There are 32 teams. There are 32 teams, and there are many of these teams

that are trying to find a quarterback that they can build around, that can be consistent year in and year out. You don't have to worry about the position. You got Lamar Jackson. You got the Joe Burrow, the Josh Allens, the Jalen Hurts, obviously Dak with the Cowboys. Many teams don't have that security blanket. The Falcons do.

They found one in Kirk Cousins when they traded for him or when they were able to get him. Then they also found one in a draft that you couldn't pass up. Kirk coming off an Achilles injury. Bing.

They have security on both sides. We know what he can do. He has an extensive resume in the regular season, but there's a talent that's going to be available to eight. And Michael Penning Jr., you don't pass that up. You don't pass that up. You know Michael Penning Jr. is your quarterback of the future.

And hell, even this year, I think if Kirk Cousins doesn't play to the standards in which they like and see fit, Michael Penning Jr. They're going to get off him after one year, Ocho? Huh? They're going to get off him after one year? Boy,? Huh? They're going to get off him after one year? Boy, you know how it is. Boy, you're not playing well?

You're not playing well? And the same thing goes for my boy. The same thing goes for my guy. We think it's going to be a quarterback battle over in Pittsburgh. Oh, yeah. Absolutely not. Absolutely not. But here's the thing, Ocho.

I love what Justin Fields has done. Russell Wilson is going to be the quarterback of that franchise over there in Pittsburgh. And if things aren't going well, Justin Fields will see the field. That's it. And I think the same thing will happen with Kirk Cousins as well. If you're stinking up the place and putting the team in jeopardy as far as winning is concerned, they're going to turn that over to Michael Piddings Jr. There's only so much losing that they're going to take.

The difference is, Pittsburgh ain't invest no money in Russ. They invested, what, $3, $4, $5 million? Yeah, but from a business standpoint, I understand what you're saying. Because the Broncos is putting their Broncos had already guaranteed that money,

so we already get like $35, $38 million from the Broncos. So he's only getting like, Pittsburgh get like 35, 38 million from the Broncos. So he only getting like Pittsburgh only play like $3 million. Yeah. But it's, it's, it's, it's Russ's job. I see the media, you know, scrumming up. Oh, Justin Fields has been having camp. He's he's ahead.

You know, he's, he's getting the good reps in, but listen, I'm, I'm, I'm going. Mike Tomlin. You understand Arthur Smith, Russell Wilson. He has a resume. His season wasn't even that bad last year in Denver. I think people are failing to realize that his season wasn't that bad last year in Denver. You have a quarterback that has an extensive resume that has experience on what it takes to win. You have a Super Bowl champion quarterback.

You have a Super Bowl champion head coach. You understand that it's Arthur Smith's job's job to understand russell wilson's strengths isn't in his weaknesses and play to that and i think you'll be fine you got nia jay harris to take some of the pressure off of russ you got george pickens who is him yeah whatever they did with puka nakua and moving him around and and allowing him to get the ball they need to do the same thing with George Pickers over there in Pittsburgh. It's not that hard. It ain't that hard. But the one thing,

what do you notice about Cooper Cove? What do you notice about Puka Nakua? It's all I effort every single play. Yeah, always. Oh, I know where you're going. I see where you're going. That's it. I see where you're going. Talent is there. He might be more going. I see where you're going. That's it. I see where you're going. That's the only... Talent is there. He might be more talented.

He might be more physically gifted. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I can't teach you effort, Ocho. You got to have that in you. And I can't have to remind... Hey, son, I need you to try hard. Son, I need you... I can't do that, Ocho.

Yeah. On the run plays, on the run plays. Yeah, that do that, Ocho. Yeah. On the run plays. On the run plays. Yeah. That's it, Ocho. Because if I'm a running back, you ain't blocking for me. Why I need to pick this blitz up so you can get a pass? On play action? Yeah. You're right. You're right. You're going to ask me to stick my... That linebacker coming right

up there. And you know he coming with... And linebackers ain't trying to dodge nothing. They try to run your butt. They running right through you. Yeah. But you know, I think he learned his lesson. He learned his lesson last year nothing. They try to run your butt. They're running right through you. I think he learned his lesson. He learned his lesson last year. He's going to be all right. But I agree. Boy, that's a lot of money to get off of Ocho

if Cousins doesn't pan out. But this is the funny thing. It's Kirk Cousins. He always pans out in the regular season. Man, Drake London is going to feast. Kyle Pitts is the funny thing. It's Kirk Cousins. He always pans out in the regular season. Yeah. Man, Drake London is going to feast. Kyle Pitts is going to feast.

He is a yardage monster in the regular season. He just hasn't been able to get his teams over the hump in the postseason. That's it. No. No, I'm not saying he ain't got no dog in him. I'm saying that, no, he needs to put in that effort. Not just when he's getting the ball. Right. Because, I'm like, Ocho, if I know it's that, no, he needs to put in that effort. Not just when he's getting the ball. Right.

Because, Ocho, if I know it's a, look, if I know, oh, it's a run, I can tell the way you're coming off the ball. Right. You do know they watch. Defenders, they watch. I can look and see how much pressure. I can see, I can look and see if a guy, if a D-lineman got light, oh, y'all about to run a game, huh?

Because why else would your hand not have that kind of pressure in the dirt? Because if you got pressure in the dirt, that means you're going forward. See, when you're light, Ocho, you got to get up out of there because they're about to do a game. They're about to do a T-E or E-T. Oh, you don't think I see the A? You're going to run a game. Yeah.

Yes, I'm looking at all the keys. I'm trying to get as big an advantage as i can to try to make my job easier your line how you lining up man stop all that you ain't coming look what a safety if you doing all that dancing if you if he way back there and you come if i just turn around who gonna cover me nobody so stop all that dancing get back where you're supposed to be. You know you finna drop in the hoop. Shut up. Right, right, right. You ain't fooling nobody.

All that dancing. Yeah. Oh, y'all know damn well they're not coming. Now, I see that safety inching down. Oh, you coming. Because he finna pick me up. Mm-hmm. You know what's funny?

Now that you mention that and trying to pick up the keys before the snap of the ball. Uh-huh. You know what's funny? Now that you mention that, and trying to pick up the keys before the snap of the ball, we used to play the Steelers. You know, the Steelers had all these exotic coverages, all these exotic blitzes on the goddamn Dick LeBeau. And the funniest thing

that they used to do is they used to bring everybody to the line of scrimmage. Yeah. And Troy Polamalu used to be sitting in the A-gap. And Carson sometimes would be thinking the blitz is coming. And at the snap of the ball, everybody run to where they got to be at.

And it would be the craziest thing to see. And Palamalu got his back to the ball. Man, back to the ball and still getting where he has to be. He does. Before Carson finishes and drops. And it was amazing that, for one, you got to have the personnel to pull that shit off.

For sure. And the only two teams that I've ever seen that had the personnel do some of the exotic stuff that these defenses did, and that was the Baltimore Ravens during the 2000s and the Pittsburgh Steelers

during the 2000s. They did things that you're not supposed to be able to do. It's one thing to bluff. It's one thing to have movement, but to have the safeties at the line of scrimmage and shooting up out of there at the snap of the ball and still be on point and in position to make a play

was unbelievable to see. Oh, Joe, the thing, if you go back and study the Ravens, the Ravens weren't that complex. They played cover too, but you couldn't run up. The reason why the Ravens were so difficult is because you couldn't run them out of it. They never had to drop the safety down to come up out of that coverage.

Where you running? The Ravens played 16 games. They didn't give up a thousand total rush yards the entire season. Let that sink in, ladies and gentlemen. In 16 games, they didn't give up 1,000

total rush yards on the entire season. In 16 games, they gave up 165 points. It's crazy. In one game, if I'm not mistaken, they gave up 35 in one game if I'm not mistaken they gave up 35 in one game

we'll never see a defense like that again no Cleveland we played Cleveland in 2000 they got 86 yards on their first drive and I think they had 30 yards the rest of the game as soon as things settled in yards on their first drive. And I think they had 30 yards the rest of the game.

As soon as things settled in, it was a wrap, huh? They got the opening. They got the opening kick, Ocho. And they went right down and scored. Right. And for the rest of the game, I think they might have had 30 yards. You want to know something? Go back and look at the play-by-play and look at the Giants in the Super Bowl and look at what they did.

Punt, punt, turnover, punt, turnover, turnover, punt, turnover, punt, punt, kick, return, punt, punt, pick. Go look at the Ocho. I mean, I'm like, it's ridiculous. Yeah. I mean, it was like, bro, I'm like, bro, that ain't going to work. I said, y'all going to get, hey, Ken Collins is going to get y'all blowed up. Because Jamie and Ray was teeing off.

Because you couldn't hold it. We didn't know you couldn't hold it. You wasn't going to go deep. Because Goose, because Rob Burnett, Mike McQuarrie, Peter Boulware, wasn't going to let you go deep. They're going to hit you in your back. So we know you got to run them little crossing routes and Jamie

and Ray were just sitting there just picking people off. Well, him is the pick one, went back for a touchdown because he didn't know the ball got to come out quick. You ain't finna throw nothing over our head. You got no time. Everything was

three-shift. Dwayne Stark and Chris McAllister. Chris McAllister? throw nothing over our head. You got no time. Everything was three-shift. Who y'all had? Dwayne Stark and Chris McAllister? Chris McAllister? Yeah, Chris was nice. And Robert Bailey was a slot. No, Robert was when they went four. But Corey Harris was a nickel slot. And then Robert Bailey. You know Robert

Bailey would... Yeah, yeah. I know Rob. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Goddamn Rob. That's classic, man. check this out DJ Moore enjoyed a career first season with the Bears now Moore is the richest Bears player in their franchise history after signing a monster four-year contract worth 110 million dollars the extension will keep him tied to the number one rookie overall pick Caleb Williams for the foreseeable future. More revealed during Bears press conference today,

he really did dread getting traded to Chicago at first. It's cold, bro. It's cold. Think about Ocho. It's cold in Chicago. It's cold in Green Bay. At least now you're inside in Minnesota,

people don't realize Minnesota should be outside too. Back in the day, yeah. Yes. So can you imagine? Man, please let me play Green Bay in September. Please let me play Minnesota in September. You did not want to be going to no Minnesota in Green Bay in no December and January.

No, sir. Or Chicago. Yeah, I like DJ more. He's been consistent. I like DJ Moore. He's been consistent. He's been quietly consistent. He doesn't make much noise. He doesn't talk a lot. He's not flashy.

He just goes out there and he gets the job done. He had a good year with Justin Fields last year. Yeah. He had a good year with Justin Fields last year. So this contract is warranted. The market is what it is. It's a friendly, I call it a team-friendly contract. He wasn't trying to break the bank and be the highest paid receiver.

But it is a team-friendly contract. He wasn't trying to break the bank and be the highest-paid receiver, but it's a team-friendly contract and it's good. I think with Caleb Williams and what I've seen from him from college, the small sample size of what I've seen from him so far in training camp, they're going to be fine. They're going to be fine. I mean, he deserves it. He deserves it. Oh, Joe, check this out.

The NFL new kickoff rules. Onside kicks are illegal until the fourth quarter. Yeah. The team must be losing to onside kick. Team must announce its intention to onside kick to the official ahead of time. The NFL is also moving closer to replacing chain game with new technology to measure the line to gain. What are you going to use? Hawkeye, right? Like in tennis.

Yeah. The league will set to test Sony's Hawkeye equipment technology during the preseason game. I kept trying to tell people they're doing everything they possibly can to get the kickoff out of the game. Because they're looking at

30-40% of the injuries and concussions happen on kickoff, running to each other, running to each other at a high rate of speed. Yeah. I mean, I like it. I like it. If anything, NFL obviously being worried about safety,

trying to implement an 18-game season. I think this is in the right steps of doing just that and eliminating the kickoff. But again, the dimensions of the field are still the same. Concussions still happen in game and in play. So,

I mean, you can do all you can to try to be safe, but there are still other measures that can, that can happen as far as changing the dimensions of the field and make it a little wider, you know, uh, to try to eliminate some of those,

um, crushing hits instead of throwing a flag for air, every little thing like we do now. So, um, I mean, I see the direction in which the NFL is going and trying to protect the players and also protect themselves for,

for any issues 10 years down the line. But, uh, I mean, I like it. Uh, I'm not sure about the kickoff. and also protect themselves for any issues 10 years down the line. But, I mean, I like it. I'm not sure about the kickoff. I think it takes away from the excitement and seeing, all right, does this player have a chance to take this one back? Well, talking to Kamish, he seems to think there'll be more returns. You think so?

Yeah, he said because once you hit a crease, you're gone. long as those players stay once you stay in your lane and you lock in and boom you yeah you share you be able to share left or right it's really nowhere to go because there's not as much room it's not as much room to set things up as a returner all you gotta do why you think a lot of them are using are using positional players to kick off? Because they're going to have to be making a lot more tackles and Justin Reed is going to be perfect.

Right. Because he's a tackler. Okay, I see what you mean. I see what you mean. I ain't trusting, I ain't trusting my kicker too many times to make a game say,

hey, he might make one, maybe two. I ain't much past that or joe i ain't trusted him to be making no game saving tackles no touchdown saving tackle that's it uh but yeah i get it i understand oh joe but here's here's the problem the nfl is running into how do you make an inherently dangerous game say it's like bull it's like bull, Ocho. At the end of the day, you're still asking a 150-pound, 160-pound man to get on a 1,500-pound bull.

Yeah. You can get him a harness. You can shave his horns down. You can get him a helmet. They put a helmet. It's still dangerous no matter what. You have the chance. There's still that 150, 160-pound man on

1,500 pounds of muscle. Yeah. Yeah. There's always a chance, no matter what you do. There's only so much you can do as far as making the game safe. But, hey, kudos for them, for the NFL trying to make it safe.

It seems to me, Ocho, they're headed to an 18-game schedule, and it's going to be sooner or later. Remember what I told you, Ocho, they're headed to an 18-game schedule and it's going to be sooner or later. Remember what I told you, Ocho. The only thing you can sell them is extra games. What else are you going to do?

Yeah. What else can I sell you, Ocho? Yeah. It's the only one way to make money. It's the only one way to make more money. And it seems like the players

are in agreement with it. Yeah. They get a piece of the pie as long as they're getting a piece of the pie as long as they're getting a piece of the pie. 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. It's this idea that there are so many stories out there, and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide. And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets.

Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 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. To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran Contra on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. a woman is going viral for saying that a bet men should cover post-date expenses free and post-date let's see what she gotta say

okay so i just got into my car after going on a date. Right. And let me just tell you something. I don't know what the deal is with like men now, but I had told him prior that I will be having pre and post date expenses. And is that OK? And are you going to cover them? And I don't know if he wasn't listening or like what the deal was or whatever. Right. But he when I handed him the white envelope, he looked shocked.

And then he opened it and it's receipts. Hello. Pre post date expenses. Hello. Like what kind of females do you be dating? You know what I'm saying? So anyway, so I handed it to him and he literally looked shocked at me and said, I can't cover this. It was $478 for pre and post date expenses. You asked me on a date and mind you, we really didn't even have that good a conversation because he was on his phone the whole time. And I have a very strict no phone policy on dates. Hello, you're

here to pay attention to me. Look at all the effort that I had to pay. Listen. This gotta be. I mean, listen. There are women that can get away with this. There are women. She's not one of them. That's no disrespect and that's no slight to her. There are women that can get away with this. There are women. She's not one of them.

That's no disrespect and that's no slight to her. There are women that can get away with this. There are men out here that cater to those that can get away with this. As a matter of fact, they don't have to say anything about pre or post date expenses because they're going to get it anyway.

Ocho. Okay. I don't even know where to begin. But let's try to unpack this, Ocho. Yeah. We're going on a date. I'm going to take care of everything. If you want to take an Uber,

I'll get you an Uber black car. I'm going to pay for the date. I'm going to get you a black car to take you home. I got the date covered. Yes, sir. You're going to pay for the date I'm going to get you a bike car to take you home I got the date covered you going to get your hair done you going to get makeup done I ain't paying for that ish

a post date hold on post what do you mean post receipt I don't know what post date expenses are what's post date expenses I've never heard of that. First off, and you don't came to the envelope,

that means the last guy didn't pay for it. And you try to pass that on down to me. I ain't paying for that. Oh, no. Oh, no. And listen, it depends on who you are. Chat, chat.

It depends on where you are in life. Are you having fun? Are you trying to look for something serious? Now, if you're not looking for nothing serious and you understand it's okay to deal with someone like that

because that's not an asset. That's a liability. Listen, you already know what time it is from the jump. I'm going to have my fun. Your post-date experience, your post-date,

your pre-date expense, whatever it may be, you're going to pay that because you want to reach your end goal if you have the people to do so. I guess you're talking about plan B. As opposed to plan B.

I just said Ocho. Could that be Ocho? What else could it be? Ocho, how do you expect a man to cover something that he's not there for? So you go out after the date with your girls, or you go out with somebody else,

and you want me, oh, you going to see somebody else. Yeah. I'm going to get you an Uber to go to wherever you going. If you want to go home, well, Shelly, let me take that back. Shelly's going to get you an Uber to get you going wherever you going,

because I ain't got no Uber. As a matter of fact, order your own Uber. I'll wherever you're going. Because I ain't got no Uber. As a matter of fact, order your own Uber. I'll give you $100. I'll give you $200. It should cover the distance in which you came and where you come. So whatever that case may be,

okay, you know what? To keep it everything good, I'm going to give you $300 to travel to and from. That should cover it. Hopefully you ain't coming from San Francisco to down to LA. Damn. Hey, but listen, it all depends on where you are in life.

It all depends on where you are in life. What you looking to do? You looking to have fun or you looking for somebody serious? That was a liability. So you already know what time it is from jump. If you're looking for something serious, you find somebody that you deal with. I'm not saying go 50-50. I'm not saying go 50-50 sometime.

90-10. Sometimes 70-30. You find somebody where you meet that, you can find that happy medium and meet that middle ground, then that's perfect. That's somebody you can deal with. Now, if you're just having fun, you already know what you're doing. There ain't no fun. You never know.

As a matter of fact, she might have been playing B or C or D see what I'm talking about and now she gonna keep she gonna keep playing the game she gonna keep playing the game until you find one that's willing to do it I wanna see the dude that's paying for that cause he you talk about A you talk about low self esteem this mofo

got no self esteem if he paying her? Yeah, yeah. You got to think about it. Oh, hell no. Y'all got me all the way messed up. Hold on. Hold on there.

Now, women with entitlement like that that are talking like that, she's saying and asking for those things because there's been someone in the past that is willing to do it. There will always be a man that's willing to do it. Is she going to find one that's willing to do it consistently?

Absolutely not. But you do have some that will pay it until they reset and go. And after they reached their end goal and had their fun, then they're on, they're gone. That's it. And then the cycle starts back over finding someone that's willing to pay it because someone already,

someone else already set the precedent. Oh, there's always going to be a man willing to do it it's just about yeah yeah but i'm just looking i ain't look i ain't finna tell nobody i'm finna win no modeling contest i wasn't you know i'm saying i ain't been to be on no covenant magazine by by no chance i ain't never some old man you know what i was think, probably like in college, late in my college, early in my NFL career, Tyson Beckford. All the way, ooh, I want Tyson Beckford.

Oh, ooh, oh, he could, yeah, yeah. I ain't never claimed to be no Tyson Beckford. Right, right. But I don't feel that I, I've never been had so low self-esteem or no self-esteem that I was like, look, even even swap ain't no swindle

you hear what i'm saying oh joe yes now if you use me for the ride i use you for the high we both get what we want come on now if you don't say i don't try just keep it real which all the way 1000 so whoa whoa whoa whoa stay right there, man. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Because I got to hit real with that one. Man, you can't hit real. Huh? You know what I'm saying? So I'm just saying, if I, look, if we go and you thinking what I'm thinking, I'm just going to have a good time.

I'm going to get what I can get. Well, hell, I'm thinking, hey, we're on the same wavelength. Because I'm thinking, hey, that'll be a good time. I'm going to try to get what I can get. Yeah, yeah. Milk the cow. That's what my grandma used to call it but the cow i'm looking at you and you thinking like i'm like huh you think that

yeah man it's it's different that's that's that's i'm i'm um it's all about in today's society. What can they get? What can I get? How is this situation? My face with them ridiculous ideas and demands. That's why I'm so I'm so happy. I'm like just being in this position, man. Sometimes real is 90 and sometimes I'm the 10.

Sometimes I'm the 30. I'm sometimes I'm the 70. Sometimes I'm the 30. Sometimes I'm the 70. Sometimes she's a 30. Either way, at some point, it's always equal, not the 100, 100, 100 percent. Every time we doing something, whatever it may be. So some months I might not have none coming in. Guess who got to pick up the slack? Then there's other months. Oh, man, I'm rolling.

I'm feeling like goddamn Pablo Escobar. OK, I got everything man the day oh they want you to pay for the lashes they want you to pay for the feet they want you to pay for the hair or I need an outfit or I need some heels or I need a bag and then you gotta think about

you gotta think about today's era you look at Instagrams on Instagrams oh my goodness you'll think everybody living large and everybody rich. What did I tell you my grandfather say? I am not fattening a frog for another snake to eat. I ain't buying no BBL.

Come on, man. I'm not doing that. Yes, sir. If that's what you want, if you feel you need to enhance your body doing that, by all means. Do so. If you want to get veneers, if you want to get implants, you want to get Botox, whatever. I don't judge. I'm not judging you.

I'm just not paying for it. Right. Right. I like. But, you know, if you do pay for it. You. Right. I like. But you know, if you do pay for it. So, you got that BBL. I done paid. How much did BBL cost? 30, 40,000? How much BBL cost? It cost that much?

How much it cost, Ash? Ask for it and Google it right quick. Here I am. I done paid. Hey. Ocho. I done paid 35, 40,000 for it. How much it cost? 9,000 Oh that ain't bad That's shoe money for you

9 to 18,000 Yeah that's shoe money So let's say I done put this in So I done spent 13,000 Getting you a BBL Right And then another dude

Hitting that thing Like a silverback Slapping at that plate glass Bang Bang I done lose a dog And get And that's your That's your investment other dude hitting that thing like a silverback slapping at that plate glass. Bam! Hey, that's your investment. But that's what you can't do. You're over here laughing.

Oh, no. Let's say if you pay for a woman's BBL, right, her breast implants and whatever it may be, right, and things don't work out, you can ask for that back. She ain't gonna give it back to you, Ocho. She ain't give it back to you.

For you, listen, if y'all don't work out, tell her to give you your shit back. Because the same way they did that procedure, she can go right back to the doctor and they can take that shit out and you can put it in the freezer and save it for the next one. Nah. Ocho. You better than me.

You better than me. Give me them titties and give me that ass. Give it back. Hand that shit over. Ocho, nah. Once I give you something, it's yours. Oh, no.

I give you a purse. I give you X. I give you Y. It's yours. I ain't finna haggle about that. Oh, I'm haggling. I'm ha a purse. I give you X. I give you Y. It's yours. I ain't finna haggle about that. Oh, I'm haggling. I'm haggling. I'm haggling because if you're leaving me, you don't need anything that reminds you

of what I've done while we were together. Yeah. I want heels. I want purses. No, I want everything. I want jewelry. Everything. Now, I've had women get upset with me and give it back.

I don't want it. My sister said, you take that Gucci. You take that Louis Vuitton. You take that Chanel. Yeah. Yeah, shit. Give me that. I'm not finna haggle with you.

You want to give it back? I'm like, no, baby. I want you to have it. Please. Nah, you being too nice, man. Nah, you being too nice, man. Nah, you being too nice. Cause now, she got the stuff you bought, your hard-earned money, and she wearing it on the next

date with Phillip. Posting on Instagram, Instagram with Phillip and your shit. That's alright. I got Queeda. Nah, let Phillip pick up slack. Me and Queeda at the movies. She got Phillip, I got Queeta, we all win. But now you got to buy Queeta the same thing.

So you dump, now you in your pocket too much. Ocho, you have to understand, in the position that I'm in now, there can be no haggling. There can be no nothing. I gain nothing. Right. I lose. I'm not in no situation if I was

if I was normal Joe Smoe right yes but in the situation I'm in the first thing they're gonna do they're gonna try to go public they're gonna try to embarrass me

okay okay I see where you're at oh oh I'm embarrassed about what oh he asked for his stuff back? You're goddamn right. Give me my shit back. But see, then they add a little stuff to it that make you look...

Unnecessary? Just leave it alone. Just leave it alone. Okay, my bad. My bad. I see where you're going. You got to, man. You got to. Hey, I mean, hypothetically speaking, hypothetically speaking, hey, bro, you better than me, boy. BBL? 13,000?

No, I ain't paying for no BBL. I'm just saying, I ain't paying for none either. I'm just saying, if it just so happened, if it occurred, honey, listen, ain't nobody gonna be riding that wave but me.

If you come to me with a BBL, you best believe I'm all in. Go shout your boy in. Right, right, right, right. You right, but listen, you better than me. Hey, honey, listen, before you leave, I know you got other people that are interested. I know you got another line you have a roster

that is waiting for you to be free. But before you leave, I need you to run me that ass and rub them tits back. And I'm going to put them in the freezer until I meet somebody else. That is in need. Yeah, I'm going to use that again.

You know, Ocho, the only thing, like, for me, is that anybody that I've ever been with, I don't speak negative about them. I just keep it moving. Me neither. Me neither.

I don't do that. I don't do that. I don't do that. Because everybody from the past has made me the man I am today. Yes. Yes. And even,

but see, here's the thing. For me, and this is why I've always been this way. I believe if you date in private, you can break up in private. Right. Right. If you date publicly, you have to break up publicly. See, there are situations that I've been involved with and everybody say, well, this is why it happened. Unbeknownst to them, we had already broken up a year. And we'd already broken up a year. Damn.

We'd already broken up a year. Ain't nobody know nothing. And then when she popped out with another dude, oh man, she was cheating. No, she wasn't. We were already broken up. Right, right, right. But see, y'all didn't know that because I kept that private.

See, that's how you have to handle it. And see now, because the thing is, Ocho, if they can't find something on you, they'll just make up stuff. Make up stuff, yeah. Go listen to the song Billie Jean with Michael Jackson.

Right. Michael Jackson said, be careful, he said, because the lies will become the truth. Mm-hmm. You see, what happens, Ocho, people will tell a lie enough, they'll start to believe it.

Believe it, yeah. And because they repeated that lie so much, people will start to tell that lie for them. I like it. I like it. I like it. I was like, bro, hey, I ain't got nothing.

I do what I do. I keep it moving. Yeah. I thought it was gonna I thought it was gonna last longer than what it did it didn't it happens but that don't make me no bad guy you know you ain't this you ain't that like hey

come on now really I mean they're I don't know what it is Ocho but it always make it seem like I'm the guy ain't nobody ever broke up with them I'm they was really i mean they're i don't know what it is oh joe but it always makes it seem like i'm i'm the guy ain't nobody ever broke up with them i'm they was a virgin when they met me i can't i can't believe you did me like right right but damn you said the same thing about the other dude that you broke up with for like you with him for a year and a half two years yeah he broke up with you and you ain't have no problems right well depending it depends on who it is now

you know you you're you're you're a public figure you're a stellar figure you're you're a man of god so it's different when you leave because when you leave i mean it it it it's it's it's hurtful you know and understanding what you bring to the table now you are the legs and the table you're the nappies in the fork so you got to understand when you leave a woman she's understanding the chance of finding someone like you again is slim to none because that at that point it's going to be hop around hop around right around hop around hop around it's never it's never gonna stick it's never gonna stick now so you got to understand if they lose somebody like you that's different it and the thing was oh joe i mean the problem like i had what i've had with

a a lady that i dated a couple of yes sir it bothered them that i did for my family yes sir i think shouldn't i say why does it bother you family come first you get everything that you want come on that i say you haven't asked for anything that you haven't been able to get. Yes, sir. So why does it bother you? Like, with your kids grown, they steal my kids. I'll give them 50. If I'm 75, 76, they steal my kids.

That's my mom. That's my sister. I'm going to take care of them. Because before, before any of this, I had Sterling. I had Sherry Shaw. Right.

They were the one that was coming to my game. My mom was giving us what she could on the money that she made. So for me, what type of person would I be if I have, Because I look at it, I know for certain, if the roles were reversed, if my sister was in the position that I'm in, my sister would do everything for me and my brother that we've done for her. If my brother was in the position that I'm in, and I know what I had in college,

if you could go back and ask anybody at Savannah State from 87 to 89 when Shannon Sharp was in college and ask them what Shannon Sharp drove and ask him what. I had Lee, Levi's, Iza, Polo, the Bo Jackson cross trainers. I had all that and kept a pocket full of money.

I could go to the Savannah Mall anytime I wanted to. So, oh, I'm going to take care of it. I'm going to take care of it because it don't mean nothing to me because everything that I look at, Ocho, oh, I'm going to take care of them. I'm going to take care of them because they don't mean nothing to me because everything that I look at, Ocho, everything that I really do is for them.

Now, you know, I bought a couple of pieces, you know, you see you, boy. You see you, boy. I know you saw that. I see you. I see you. I bought a couple of pieces of jewelry, you know, jewelry. That's a red flag off jump, especially if you're dealing with somebody somebody if let's say you wanted to spend a lifetime with them if that was your life partner that's somebody you had no problem saying you

know what if i was to wake up to anybody else the rest of my life it'd be you and the fact that that individual has a problem with you taking care of your immediate family that was been there way before she was yes you came. That's a red flag and that's a no-go. That's a non-negotiable. Oh, yeah, for sure. That's a non-negotiable. Yeah.

Especially, look, when it comes to taking care of your kids, even if they are grown, come on now. Even my homeboys. I got, you know, hey, everybody heard me mention Bucket and Burn.

If I give one something, the other one ain't even got to ask I'm going to send him something I keep them evil I know for certain if the roles were reversed there are certain people you know Ocho if the roles were reversed if Bucky was in my position

and I was in his he'd be the same way for me ain't no question I don't even question it. They know if he knows if something were to happen to him, he already know his family taking care of. Yeah. My homeboy bucket.

He knows something happened to him. His wife taking care of. He didn't got to ask. Yeah. Yeah. My homeboy used to play cards together. His name was Elijah Alexander.lexander he was good he passed away his wife kim she know if she need anything she got my number yeah ain't no i'm

trying to talk to her back though nothing like that i got too much respect for him and i've been knowing them before they got married so she know if she need anything somebody to talk to something monetarily i got it yeah because i know eli would have done the same for me bucket and burns i got three brothers sterling sharp darryl mccormick and keith burns yeah i got three brothers one sister yeah yeah that's how i ride, Ocho. If I ride with you, there ain't nothing you can't come to me and ask me for. If they came to me and said, homeboy,

Charles, boy, I'm down. Man, I need 500, homeboy. You know I ain't gonna never be able to pay you back. Done. Yeah. I got a small group, a small group a very small group just like that just like you same but obviously you know i got two brothers sam and chauncey i got a sister

shanita i got my homeboys here in miami that kept me on a straight and narrow anything they ever small group beau rep rashad yeah that's three down here Bobo and Hound That's the five down here in Miami Then I got my Cincinnati folk Right Well, if they ever need anything Hunk, you hear me? When I say anything

Yes They know they good Main, Lose, Ryan, Locke Anything, that's it Rico, that's five They need anything Hunk, they good Yes

Never want for nothing. Never ask for nothing. I just know if they were in my position and I ever needed, they got. Ocho, that's how I look at every situation. And I really try to evaluate that. And I played college ball with Bucket. So I've known Bucket since 88. We've been probably best friends probably since 91, over 30 years.

Burns, I met him in 94. He was really the first rookie that I really hung with. And so he and I've been cool basically since day one. I always try to look at it like if the roles were reversed. Versed, yeah. Would they? Would you extend that same service? Yeah.

Yeah. I got, hey, listen, it's so funny. Madol, I know Rashad. We call him Doink. Anybody in the chat know Doink, Winter Gables? Worked with the mayor down here in Miami. I didn't know Rashad since 1988. We played on Miami Lakes Optimist together since 88.

Lived right down the street from me. When I went to Pro Bowls, Shadi was at the Pro Bowls. When we had big games, Shadi was out there in Cincinnati. Made some good times, and it's hard to find the value of true friends.

I mean, there's a difference now. True fans, not those that are there just because of what you can do. Those that really value through the ups, through the downs, and nothing ever changes. You know when you really got a true friend is when you say no. The time when you say no, and they

don't buy the eye laughs. They don't get upset. They still call and check on you. And that's the hard part. You never know who your true friend is until you tell somebody no for the first time. That lets you know what it really is. Oh, Joe, you know, like, my brother, he ordered Chez Balaportier. He ordered Nightcap merch.

He ordered Club Chez Chez merch. I don't, I don't, he don't take it. He don't, he's like, I'll buy it. He said, bro, you run a business. Yeah. I mean, my, like Rod Smith,

but anytime I go to Denver, he'll pick me up. I don't pay for nothing. Yeah. I said, man, why you say, he say,

bro, he say the information and how you show me to be a pro and the approach. He say, it helped me more than on the football field. It helped me in life. He say, your money no good when I'm here. And the guys know. Also, the guys would come to my house for the NBA All-Star game. I would leave.

I'm like, I'm gone. Nah, y'all have at it. I'm gone. Super Bowl, I go stay at Nah, y'all have at it. I'm gone. Super Bowl, I go stay at the hotel, let them have the house. Right. 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. It's this idea that there's so many stories out there. And if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide. And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets.

Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 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 Naf more questions in just a second.

To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran Contra, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

May God bless you and your families with good health, love, and joy. Here's the question. If y'all were in y'all prime on the same team, who get more TDs? Ocho, what's the most TDs you had in a season? I think 11. Yes, sir. I was always double cover. Yeah.

10, I only had 10. I had 10 twice. I fumbled one in the end zone when it gave me three seasons of 10. I fumbled in the end zone. Yeah. Dude hit me in the back, Ocho. Yeah.

Hey, I did too much talking before every game. And so you already know what D Corners was doing to me. Yeah, I did too much talking. Oh, I ain't talking for the guy. I talked a little bit for the game, but I talked enough in the game. Oh, you did. Yeah. See, hey, every Wednesday, I think Coach Lewis, I think he never made me stop because it took all the pressure off the rest of the players. You know what I mean? So they could just go out there and play. But every Wednesday through immediate day, I was taking a shot, and not in a malicious way, just in a fun, entertaining manner at our opposing team. Every week for a decade straight. Every week.

You know what I basically did? You don't play video games, but I played the game of football on all Madden in real life, if that makes sense Ocho, most touchdowns you had in the season was 10, me and you tied 10? Yeah That's it? I probably only did that

I only probably did that one time I probably did that one time What? I had two of them, Ocho I mean But you had nine three times, Ocho Oh, I did? Yeah I wasn't a touchdown monster, but I was a yardage monster. Man, look.

I was a yardage monster, though. Man, that guy. Man, Gates, Tone. Oh, Antonio? Yeah, man. That's what the stadium's on. Him and Phillip Rivers get down there by that 20 and that 10? Man, I should have.

Oh, they're going to make it happen, man or that goal line oh they gonna make it happen there they're gonna make it happen every time and tone and uh gonzo i can see i couldn't yeah i'm like you man see the thing is i hate that i got stopped on the two or the one because t's gonna get that thing the next time around that thing every time yeah yeah what it is so damn i mean i'm looking at man i'm like bro how you get 117 118 touchdowns at that position at the tight end position yeah that's crazy that's crazy uh what's that may show it can't be Mateo Ramirez will Caleb Williams perform better than JF

who's JF Justin Fields I mean Caleb Williams is a starting quarterback for the Chicago Bears we don't know if Justin Fields is going to be and look at what they've given Caleb Williams they've given him DJ Moore

they've drafted Romadu at what they've given Caleb Williams. They've given him DJ Moore. They've drafted Roman Duse. And they've traded for Keenan Allen. And they got come on, bro. Justin Fields said, hold on, wait a minute. Why y'all didn't give me all that? He good. He's straight.

I think Caleb, because Caleb is going to start the season so it's going to probably be what at least four or five games before Justin Fields get on the field if he gets on the field Russell Wilson is going to play the part this is Russell Wilson's bounce back year and last year wasn't even goddamn bad

okay back year and last year wasn't even goddamn bad. Okay. Richard Asing. Hey Uncle Nocho today is my 23rd birthday. Happy birthday! Let's go! Happy birthday bro. Happy 23rd birthday.

Facts. Chat, y'all are the meat and potatoes of our success. Aram Abduljewan. Abduljewan. I'm sure I messed that up. Shout out to Nightcap Ocho. Will you start your own podcast like Shannon with Club

Shea Shea? If so, you can call it Ocho's Lounge. I think it'll do numbers. Just something to think about. I like it. I like it, but all my energy is devoted to Nightcap. Having anything else on the side of it, I think it will take away from Nightcap. Unk is a different beast.

He has multiple moving parts in his entity that he does. I'm not like that. It's just me, my assistant in rail. So doing anything outside of nightcap, it would be more harmful than good. James says, got my shirt. Love the quality. Amazing fit. Received so many compliments.

Much love from Houston. James, we expect to see you at the show. But thank you for your support. Nightcap shirts. Thank you for the quality. That's what we're going for.
