Hey there. Dr. Jesse Mills here. I'm the director of the men's clinic at UCLA Health. And I want to tell you about my new podcast called The Mailroom. And I'm Jordan, the show's producer. And like a lot of guys, I haven't been to the doctor in many years. I'll be asking the questions we probably should be asking, but aren't. Because guys usually don't go to the doctor unless a piece of their face is hanging off or they've broken a bone.

Depends which bone. Well, that's true. Every week, we're breaking down the unique world of men's health, from testosterone and fitness to diets and fertility and things that happen in the bedroom. You mean sleep? Yeah, something like that, Jordan. We'll talk science without the jargon and get you real answers to the stuff you actually wonder about. It's going to be fun, whether you're 27, 97, or somewhere in between. Men's Health is about more than six packs and supplements.

It's about energy, confidence, and connection. We don't just want you to live longer. We want you to live better. So check out the mailroom on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your favorite shows. What do you get when you mix 1950s Hollywood, a Cuban musician with a musician with a dream and one of the most iconic it comes of all time. You get Desi Arnaz, a trailblazer,

a businessman, a husband, and maybe most importantly, the first Latino to break prime time wide open. I'm Wilmer Valderrama, and yes, I grew up watching him, probably just like you and millions of others. But for me, I saw myself in his story. From plenty canary cages to this night

here in New York, it's a long ways.

Wait till the biology majors find this shit. And they study and, you know, dissecting this shit. They'll find a lot of shit up in there, man. Like, Twister's head. Especially with y'all flows and shit. Like, I feel like y'all flows was, you know what I'm saying, was inspired. You get what I'm saying? Like, especially a lot about Atlanta rappers, you know what I'm saying?

Like, because you hear that Kilo Ali. You dig what I'm saying? You hear, like, all the rappers. So it's like that love, that inspiration. What would y'all say? Why would y'all was so unique? When you were like, you know what? I don't want to be like them.

I don't want to sound like that. I want to come out and do our own thing. Yeah. What brought that out the most was what we come from as far as the streets. We was always around the dumb ones. We was around like the pimps for real. So that set a tone with us.

Then you had Twister. At the time, he wasn't rapping. He was rapping that stuff. but not in the streetway. Right. So we brought all that together. So once we brought that together, shit, and, because if you can remember, Twistler was rapping a certain, like bars for bar, he was like hip-hop.

But when he rapped on Pope Pimp, it was, what a motherfucker might be broke and shit, and they're collecting no dope from tips. You're in the streets with that shit now. Bitch ain't collecting no dough from tips. But I was spitting mold-gamed in the mouth full of poker chips to get them holes with the open lips and the provoking hips. and they ain't got to tell them any lies. Help them looking in the city sky. Come on, man.

Those verses, you know, anything. You're pissed. You know what I'm blessed with a look of innocents. Man, and some pretty eyes. Good sex. Pina butter complex. And some pretty eyes. These hoes like me. That's what he said.

That's what he said. That's what he said. That what he said. Yeah, man. So that's the, that style came from, you know, just being in the, in the mix of, you know, around the pimp world. And then at the same time, you know, just picking up game from the people that we were surrounded by. And just watching the people, the artists came before us, too.

Like your Scarface, ghetto boys, your ice cubes and all these guys who came before us, man. They were stepping stones for us. Yeah. Talk to talk. I hit that ringing. To the head that lady doing some shit, she ain't never did before. To the rhythm of a hi-hat. These holes don't know what that is.

We got way more Hall of Fame. I say that every time we got somebody that comes through because we, that's all we have on this couch is Hall of Famous. Green Jacket type motherfucker. Did what I'm saying? We don't respect our Hall of Famous enough, bro. Just like you were talking about all these albums, ain't none of y'all albums flop. Not how hard it is to go gold. Yeah.

Go platinum. Yeah. And amongst... With real physical... With real physical copy. Like, I made a nigga get out of his seat. Go buy my CD. And pay in line and pay real money for it.

You had a motherfuckers listen to your album in the bed before he brushed his teeth. You dig what I'm saying. And y'all went gold amongst other killers when they come. We're talking about rappers. when it was hard to get notaried and we ain't got no digital media just like y'all this at the height of the rap game

bro are you crazy bro our our icons don't get put on the pedestal enough so we want to tell y'all thank you man thank you we want to tell y'all y'all y'all actually paved away for a lot of people bro and y'all are moguls not only for Chicago but for niggas just like y'all around

the world so we just want to say thank you thank you for sure for sure for sure for sure for sure and it's crazy that you that you just said that because there's a lot of um you know how you sometimes you feel like you're not getting the flowers um i just remember face saying man sometimes man you you have to leave out the game in order for to feel like you're getting your flowers you know what I'm saying so yeah man that this this mean more than you know yeah because there's a lot of shit that we we know we put in the hard work you'd be like damn did I put it in that

all that hard work for nothing. You know what I'm saying? So to hear this right now, it's, man, respect. No, it's love, bro. It's love. It's definitely, it definitely, y'all definitely impacted the game. Not only that, I think at that time,

a lot of us ain't thinking about it because, like you said, y'all toured a whole year. Yeah. Yeah, a whole year. Two-go album, two-go album, going crazy. So you're not really thinking what you're doing,

not knowing that you, know how hard it is to do that? Yeah, yeah, we weren't even thinking about it. We just, at work, we just jumped over the head. We ain't worried about that shit. Once you make it, we go. Yeah, yeah. And that's what made it dope because you had Tupac and Biggie,

you had the East Coast and West Coast thing going on at the time. You know what I'm saying? Right. And Pope Pimp was just creeping up through the, you know, through the process of all of that shit. You know what I'm saying? And once Pope Pimp just took off, it was, you know, it was hard because

Park said we ain't going to let nothing move we're going to put song for some if somebody was trying to put a song on Park was going to put a song out so for the East Coast West Coast thing to be happening Pope him taking off like that that alone said a lot about the song you know what I'm saying because it wasn't a lot of music being played out

played like that yeah they was holding all music back yeah so all this digital streaming that motherfuckers got easy for you to put your song out and you y'all going through a process of trying to stay relevant doing all this yeah yeah that's coming with a song that makes sense while all this is going on you know what i'm saying and pope pimp took off through all that process and think about how many songs that was on the billboard that took off other than crucial conflict. Hold on, man. You got to talk your talk.

What are how many? If you look on, if you look on Billboard with Pock and Biggie at that time, two of the biggest artists, you know, having their songs out, you sing our song, you sing Crucial Conflict, and you sing UGK, pocket full of stones. Check it. Check Billboard. Check Billboard.

Everybody ain't get on Billboard. Now, you might not have got on Apple Music. Yeah. But you ain't even get on the Billboard. Yeah. That's different. Yeah. You might hit Apple chart, but you ain't get Billboard chart.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's the biggest shit in America. That's what I'm saying. Everybody in America listening to your shit. That's what I'm saying. That's a collective.

Yeah. You all, they, you locked in. Right. Yeah. Shit. What would you say by far your favorite song? As far as all album, I can't say it because it's like a majority of the music I made the hooks for, the hooks for, so, you know. Hey, man, face the blanket.

This ain't me, man. You got to represent that shit. Come on. Yeah, man, my folk. My baby, man, I'm high. So I would do like, damn, my blanket fucked up. Yeah, majority of the songs I made the hooks for, so I just love all the shit, man. You know what I'm saying?

They're like, yeah, you're hard to pick a favorite. You're not some, you know, as artists, we got ours that we like. What's your favorite one to perform then? If my favorite one to perform, we'll be just bawling. That's what I'm doing, just bawling, trying to keep a meal straight, stuck another falling, catty or the legs, trying to hit the next plateau, flex with the road jump and truly go-go. I smoke a bees and dodger, pole, po, got the pimped in my soul, so I pimped to him.

Oh, hold on for a minute, let me call my, you know, you know, that was. the one, because Zoom's with that song play, yeah, yeah. See, I'm a, I'm a music under soul for when I got hip this year. I got hip to that flow with bone thuds and harmony and y'all in Twister. What made y'all rap so fast? I always said if somebody can rap fad, you can rap. What made y'all just want to rap in that, that cadence? That cadence.

Twister. No, because Twister was already doing it, you know what I'm saying? So, no, once again, we just. brought the streets into that style you know what I'm saying and with Bonn them like they harmonized but we brought clear words you know what I'm saying

Double murder when I lock the Glock the pop Open up six more C With E 17 the D's a freezer butter like a holocaul Take a tip off to drip off the ad the man The break a chip off the other man Don't they be buried the man cause I'm gonna carry the man In the land with the zone begin Let me the zone again the triple beam is my only friend

Fantasy become reality That me it's hard to breathe It's hard to lead so we go hard to see Don't even guard your grill you ain't hard to kill. So we was flowing. Right. You know what I'm saying?

And you heard the words clear. You heard clear words, you know what I'm saying? So we was just one of our words because we know bone thudgeon humming already had the harmonized thing down back. Yeah. That was fine. Yeah. It's all right. What do you get when you mix 1950s Hollywood, a Cuban musician with a dream, and one of the most iconic sitcoms of all time?

I'm Wilmer Valderrama, and yes, I grew up watching him, probably just like you and millions of others. But for me, I saw myself in his story. From planning canary cages to this night here in New York, it's a long ways. On the podcast starring Desi Arnaz and Wilmer Valderrama, I'll take you in a journey to Desi's life,

the moments it has overlapped with mine, how he redefined American television and what that meant for all of us watching from the sidelines, waiting for a face like hours on screen. This is the story of how one man's spotlight lit the path for so many others and how we carry his legacy today.

Listen to starring Desi Arnaz and Wilmer Valderrama as part of the MyCultura podcast network available on the IHard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Hey there, Dr. Jesse Mills here. I'm the director of the men's clinic at UCLA Health. And I want to tell you,

you about my new podcast called The Mailroom. And I'm Jordan, the show's producer. And like a lot of guys, I haven't been to the doctor in many years. I'll be asking the questions we probably should be asking, but aren't. Because guys usually don't go to the doctor unless a piece of their face is hanging off or they've broken a bone. Depends which bone. Well, that's true. Every week, we're breaking down the unique world of men's health, from testosterone and fitness to diets and fertility and things that happen in the bedroom.

You mean sleep? Yeah, something like that, Jordan. We'll talk science without the jargon and get you real answers to the stuff you actually wonder about. It's going to be fun, whether you're 27, 97, or somewhere in between. Men's Health is about more than six packs and supplements.

It's about energy, confidence, and connection. We don't just want you to live longer. We want you to live better. So check out the mailroom on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your favorite shows. What up, y'all? your boy, Kevin on stage. I want to tell you about my new podcast called Not My Best Moment, where I talk to artists, athletes, entertainers, creators, friends, people I admire

who had massive success about their massive failures. What did they mess up on? What is their heartbreak? And what did they learn from it? I got judged horribly. The judges were like, you're trash. I don't know how you got on the show. Boo. Somebody had tomatoes. I'm kidding. But if they had tomatoes, they would have thrown the tomatoes. Let's be honest. We've all had those moments we'd rather forget. We bumped our head. We made a mistake. The deal fell through. We're embarrassed. We failed.

But this podcast is about that and how we made it through. So when they sat me down, they were kind of like, we got into the small talk, and they were just like, so what do you got? What? What ideas? And I was like, oh, no. What? Check out Not My Best Moment with me, Kevin on stage, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcast. The Big Take podcast from Bloomberg News dives deep into one big global business story every weekday. A shutdown means we don't get the data, but it also means for President Trump that there's no chance of bad news on the labor market.

What does a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich reveal about the economy? Our breakfast foods are consistent consumer staples, and so they sort of become outsize indicators of inflation. What's behind Elon Musk's trillion dollar payout? There's a sort of concerted effort to message that Musk is coming back. He's putting politics aside. He's left the White House. And what can the PCE tell you that the CPI can't? CPI tries to measure out-of-pocket costs that consumers are paying for things,

whereas the PCE index that the Fed targets is a little bit broader of a measure.

How the fuck we end up in this shit? When we go halfway through the show, we're like, how the hell we get here?

Because it's like, motherfuck we go. fuck we're so man when we put the tour cities out man y'allelan man god damn how many all right we're trying though we're gonna come through we're coming through oh just coming in there one when y'all don't show up at they city yeah they don't want to drive our wow right oh so they want you to come to uh they want me they want us coming in their house man they want us do $20,000 we're right here right out yeah do you do your shit We ain't gonna let me go home, man.

Yeah, when we dropped the tour cities, they were like, man, come on. He was like, man, come on, man. I'm like, bro, we didn't came that eight times in the room. We'll leave, and they'd be like, man, we ain't y'all come here. We'd be like, where are we coming now? Yes. We just left. Man, I ain't seen you here about it.

Yeah, man. Now, we're gonna go back. They act like we said fucking ain't never coming back. Right. No, we're going back. We built these markets and we're going to them. Right. What is it like a, it's an every, like, other quarter that you do the shows?

Yeah, it really just depends on how the schedule will break down. Right. Like, we all, usually, like, at the top of the year, we're all getting. get together see like what's our collective availability who got who to and where and what and try to route around that because you know some of these places it's just like I feel like we can like because we do these 85 South shows and then we go do stand-up there and then we go do the comedy clubs so it's like these we notice that it's not all the same market the people who gonna come see you at the comedy club these ain't gonna be the same people who're gonna come

come see you at the arena because they ain't fucking with all of that they rather see you where they can talk shit back to you and you know what I'm saying they want to be hit man they go on by they get what I'm saying and they understand they okay they they're here building some shit and working on something but it's always fun though yeah commonly got medicine and be healing people and helping them off like so people will be sending us messages and shit all the time talking about how this shit where we fall into their life you know what i'm saying i was so proud of us man somebody sent me a link to this goddamn uh freak-a-lady doing some freaking-haired thing guess what she was listening to what welcome back to the 85 self-s yeah in background you can hit you can hit in the background while she's getting busted oh yeah we'd have made it into the background of porn-o movie that may sound like some sleazy low-brow-brow shit

But that's exactly why I got in the game. If people who make amateur porn ain't playing this show, not good enough. I let my community down. So if you make those dirty-ass videos and post them online, always feel free to let the 85 South show be playing in the background. We love that type of guerrilla market. What's neat?
