but I got a good dresser. You know, Shorty is going, so. Who is Shorty? My fiance is. Oh, your fiance? I'll be the next one getting married,

and, you know, she's trying to make sure I look presentable. I'm like, I ain't been looking presentable all these years? No. I mean, you look presentable

for wax. That's what I'm trying. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, for what you present, what you present. But you had a different stage in your life right now. I understand that. You know what I'm saying? I take it. You're a businessman.

You know what I mean? You know, so you got to present differently, especially at a wedding. You can't wear the baggy suit with the Thames. I ain't really back. Whoa, whoa, whoa. You can't do that? But can you tell him what happened? Like, I got my suit that day.

They couldn't tell him me. They were trying to go get a suit on a Sunday in Columbia, South Carolina. But they couldn't tailor him. They couldn't tailor him. That's exactly how you wanted that suit. Baggy, 90. It was really out of control. It was really Steve Harvey.

I had the Timbs or, everybody was betting to see if I had Tim's or what? They were betting. They were going to say, what is Wax not going to wear? His hat or his Tims. Motherfucker wore both. And they was betting whether he would wear a suit.

So I don't know who won that bet because they was betting what he wouldn't wear. He wore everything. They bet he wouldn't wear a suit. He wore the baggy ass suit. Okay. They bet he wouldn't wear a hat. He wore a hat.

They bet he wouldn't wear a tams. He wore a tams. So when you say you got something of a suit, what do you mean? I got the dress pants and I got the shirt. Like what kind of shirt? Like a button up? A button up shirt. Yeah, she was trying on turtlenex yesterday.

No. You're lying? And I'm going to tell you the truth. You act like I couldn't hear. I thought you hear everything. You thought I didn't. He in there was like, I like the way the turtleneck fit. No, I did not.

He did. No, I did. He told Ty. Carla brought me a turtleneck and I'm like, make it the fuck out. I didn't put in that shit. I'm not what he said. He told Ty, he was like, I like, I like the way the turtleneck feel. She gets bigger size, though.

Tile was like, you can't wear a medium turtleneck. And he was like, why? No, a large, a large turtleneck. And he was like, why? My man's lying. I tell you, I try to put the turtorn. When I did this with the turtleneck, it looks stupid as hell. Like, everybody don't have, I got a little extra.

Why would you try to tuck your dredge in the turdleneck? It looks stupid. That's what I'm saying. You're not supposed to do that. He's trying to tuck his dredge in the turtleneck part of the sweater. I don't know how to do that, man. I didn't wear a turdone. You see how you wearing his hoodie?

The way he wearing his hoodie. right now he took the dreds and put him in the turtleneck. So the dredges all around the neck like this, he looked crazy as hell. I'm not worried. Well, I'm not wearing the turtleneck. So you got a button up. I got chilling.

You know, black pants, black shoes. You're cool. Cool. I can't wait to go see the shorts get married. And it's like a, uh, I let him talk about his wedding. I let show. Definitely a celebration, man. You know, he's been on shows for years.

He's been on the road. We'd be, we chill. He'd been on the road. So, I mean, I think he's tired. he's tired. I'm saying, I'm not missing nothing either. You know, people like, oh, wax, you're about to get married stuff. You're like, oh, you're about to settle down.

I'm like, I kind of did it. Now, you got to get married. Listen, Schultz, if you look at Schultz's life, right, it's two things that I saw, three things that I saw, Schultz make a significant change on that has caused his, the trajectory of his life just to go up. Got engaged. Blessing.

He found a good woman. Well, no, first of all, he found God. Shost didn't believe in God at one point. I've seen him get beat up before, so you had to go straight to God after that. Shultz got beat up? Yeah, Shultz. Yeah, she's got beat up. I'm not seeing that.

Andrew Schultz? Andrew Shultz got beat up. By God, girl. It's a guy. Huh? Yeah, this guy is supposed to be able to beat him up, though. He's a bigger guy. When did I miss this, man?

You didn't realize. Really, after he got beat up, I've seen him, like, go to God and stuff. I'm like, oh, look at Andrew, wrong, that's great. I'm telling you. I met when he went to God. That's number one. Then he found a good woman, right? And they say in the Bible, he who finds a wife finds a great thing.

A great thing. Right? And then he took his career in his own hands. And it's like, yo, once you take, once once you give it to God and then you say, you know what, I'm going to start moving the way you want me to move God. I'm going to start trusting you and trusting your instincts. You don't lose. And that's been his life ever since.

I tell people all the time. The way, the way my life went up, up, up is number one, I've always had a super faith in God. Number two, doing it right by my wife. Like when Ceeley point that finger and Ceeley say, ain't no good, gonna come to you tell you do right by me. What about porn? What do you mean? What about porn?

Is that doing right by her or what? Depends. Depends. Do you lust for porn more than you do her? No. Do you sneak away to watch porn? Sometimes. And not let her know.

Y'all don't watch it together? No. Watch your widow. I don't know. Damn. Is it sometimes, no, no. Sometimes you need that alone time for your porn. You know what I'm saying?

What if you go? What if she go to your porn hub search? He already said, you know, she played me out. She laughed. What if none of the point of help searches or what she is? No, no, if it is, if I see any curly-haired girl in my phone, I'm in trouble.

Wow. Anybody curle-est around? Are you going to type in Curly Head Girl? I did before just to see. I just go to almost everything. You know what I'm saying? I'll probably put in everything you could put it. You know what I'm saying?

Because after you put something in, it's like a whole line of things that's like suggested around it. You know what I'm saying? So it would be like curly-haired girl. Like curly-haired girl Asians. Girlie Hair Girlie Hair Girl, Her Girlie Hair, Girlie Hair. You know what I'm not going to judge you. I've done that before.

I've typed in Natural Hair. I've typed in natural hair. I like natural hair. This one is big and bushy. I like natural hair. So yeah, I've definitely typed. Yeah, you got to see what's going to. But you say natural hair is going to have a big bush now.

No, actually it actually was a natural hair girl. There was only one video that shit was dope. Yeah. I watched that whole. shit. I can't watch a whole I can't watch a whole I can't watch a whole

no it depends how long it is I can't do no 20, 30 minutes no no you gotta fucking control what's wrong

with you a maniac 56 minutes man that's it that's kind of long too I look for the two minute ones I go to the end

okay I watch the beginning unless it's too much I used to like the storytelling and all that I love it I love the story tell

but I like the storyteller but I like she came and she just tripped on it he was naked under somewhere

you know what I'm saying yeah like oh my gosh you know what I'm saying Oh, is that your dick I fell on? Yeah, something fast. So he walked in, he'd have made this man and she's in the shower. Like, I know as soon as it's going to happen.

You know what I'm saying? We don't need a, you be outside and all that type of shit. That storyline is too much. But I don't know how we went from God, our fiancée's, and I was going to say therapy as a third thing. You know what I mean? But I was interrupted by the devil just now. You know, you see how the devil do.

You just be having a good pilot. No, I would just want to make sure that's not cheating on her. You got to ask her. I want to get right. See what I'm saying? I'm climbing to it. I'm growing too. And I'm like, I'm doing all the proper steps.

You know what I'm saying? I'm about to get married. You know what I'm saying? When is the wedding? Your clock is ticking. Shots on deck this week. The clock is ticking for you, Herman. It is.

What you waiting on? It's her. I ain't got nothing to do it. I did my part. I did my part. I gave the ring and I shut up. She right now, if I come on, she said, put this on, we get married today. I've got to shut the fuck up and do it because I did my part.

Are you ready? You may am I ready? What did I? I'm asking. Are you ready? We got a guy gave us hands and porn. What the fuck else I needed me ready for? I could jerk off and I got porn.

I don't need nothing else. And I got Carla. Why is she third? Your hands, porn, and then Carla? My God. That's exactly how you said it. Like, damn, you should be like, you all got a good woman. I got a good woman.

I don't need nobody else. You're right. That's it, man. I'm telling you, I promise y'all brothers out there, listen to me, man. Listen to your old old-a-uncle, Charlemagne, brother Leonard. When you commit to one woman and you, you, you give your all that one woman and you give all your energy that one woman and you do right by that one woman I promise you the trajectory of your life will change in ways you can't even

imagine I am a testimony well she's cheating on you well guess what what do I always say God's not going to judge me based off how people treat me he's going to judge me based off how I treat people I did what I was supposed to do and I've been doing right so you know if if she fucks that blessing up, she fucks that blessing up. You know what I mean? Yeah, I'm the blessed. You feel like you getting cheated on? No, I don't think I'm getting cheated on.

It's just like, you know, I don't know. I just never know. I'm always gone. I'm always on the road. No, no, no, I don't think, I don't think Carl is cheating on me. I don't think Carl is cheating on me. No, who else would be cheating on you? I know.

I've been waiting for you to have feelings. What you mean? I've been waiting for a girl to get her hands around your soul. Why? Would you be making women feel forever? That's right. So, hold on. So, when you're gone.

When I'm gone, yeah, it hurts, man. I don't want to come home. I don't want to be out going to go for her. Well, you'd be like, we're going to fly back on. I'm like, yes. And you know what I love about Carla? Carla be on the move. So in Carla's places.

Calla be out. Where she goes. I just seen Carla on the gram in Puerto Rico or somewhere. Yeah, she's going out there and see her family. But that hurts me, too. And I'm not with the family. It really, really hurts. So are you concerned about Poppy in Puerto Rico?

You're concerned to me? be one. Huh? The only thing it's popular. There's a lot of Franks out there. A lot of Franks.

Franks. Franksico. What do you call them in Puerto Rico? I don't know. Francis? Franksico? Frankies.

Frankies. Too many Frankies out there. So you really worry about your girl? No, I'm not. I'm not worried about her cheating. I know what I think anybody who'd be on the road

as much as I do, you know what I'm saying? You got to just be there because a lot of times, a lot of dudes actually be there enough and still I was the one guy that was cheating. They was cheating with me.

Yeah, yeah. And I'm like, this guy, I've been taking care of you holding you down, always there, family pictures. And, like, you live in a great life. What the fuck are you doing over here with me back in the day? You know what I'm saying? So it's like, I'm gone. You have a reason to do that. Yeah.

So you think, I just hope you get cheated on this one. No. I'm going to tell you why. I think you need to feel that. You know what? I don't think I'll feel it so hard. Now, she don't need to go all the way. I don't want her to cheat.

But just a little bit. No, I want her to cheat. I don't want to do nothing. No. Just eyes for another person. No, no. No, no, no, because I run. I hide because I've seen how what eyes do back in the day.

I'm so fucked up because I seen me googly eyes a girl back in the day and then it turned it to something else. So if I see her even, I'm like, yeah, what's that all that about? I'm ready to run already. Is Herman afraid of his own karma? Is Herman afraid that he's done so much dirt in the woman department that, you know, that dirt is going to come back to him? I don't.

Real shit, I don't think I did really dirt because anybody who dealt with me know exactly what they was dealing with. That's not an excuse, Herm. That is. No, it's not. It is because, you know, if I lied to a girl and made her feel like, yo, I wasn't doing nothing with nobody else, I deserve every karma I get.

You know what I'm saying? So you think telling the truth. Telling the truth. Okay. So. If Carla come and tell me the truth, I'm down. And that's what it needs to happen. All right.

There's a little googly eyes. Carla, trust me on this. It's a little googly eyes for somebody else. Even if the person don't exist. Just make it seem like they. But I'm going to leave for no reason there. You're not. You're not.

she's going to come to you and tell you the truth and you got to practice what you preach. Listen, I understand that, but these women should have left me is what I'm trying to tell you. Just Google something on Pornhub. Google Curly Head. Why, boy? Just let her open up the porn hub. Just let her search her. The fuck you search a Curly Head.

No, I see, I don't mind for stuff like that. I kind of let her live her life because I would never tell somebody, oh, I see you do this because you'll change up. You change this tactic. I want to see exactly who you are. Let me see how far you actually go through it. Yeah, they say let people do what they. want so you can see what they would rather do. That's it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I stay out your way, oh, that's who you are. Now, if you

dig the grave so much into where now, you need my help to get out of it, nah, I've been seeing this, now I'm going to tell you why I can't help you. But I'm not going to stop you for what you really, really want to do. I think that you might be afraid of your own karma. But yeah, I don't. You need to really, like, you couldn't even begin to confess all your sins when it comes to when it. I do. I do. I do because I told her the whole whole facts. You told her everything. Nah, Carla kind of know because Carla was helping me out some time. It's only you realize it. Father, the flight to L.A. is long.

Let's chat. No. We got all weekend. I think I can catch you up on all wax and shit in the weekend. Nah, it's not like that. Again, like I said, Carla knows that I wasn't an angel out here, but I always let people know exactly who I always been. You're a liar.

Who I lied to? Here's the problem, right. Even though you may tell the truth you do too much. You the nigger that do too much. You pray with the girl. That's what I'm saying. You have the mom praying with the girl. If we had sex back in the day,

you know why we, right after we had sex, you got to pray. You got to pray with me before we, because we both just sent. Praying with Mama, man? No, we're not praying with Mom naked. But you didn't pray with Mama, man. Listen, they had problems

and they didn't pray. Go with my mama and praying worse. You don't know what you're leading a woman on? No. You're a wild. You know how many people that still can pray with my mom. Anybody did to pray a mama. Yes.

But you can't sleep with a woman. act like you like her I don't act like I like they have sex with me I wasn't having sex with me I wasn't having sex with I mean you sing the girls you say you don't do this

Carl he's lying I told her I never talked to nobody in my life before don't ever tell him who when I don't say who

waxing the drum set in front of him waxing the drum set in front of him waxing the drum set in front of him waxing up with words love ba bum my love ba bum

you that boy is wild you hear me I never sung to nobody, Carla. Only you, baby. Why would you tell that lie? I don't remember this. What was it at?

I don't remember either. I just seen it before. But I don't want to tell you. I don't want to tell a story. But here's the thing. You can't have a girl. You can't have your mom praying for her and, you know, act like you don't like her after the fact.

I never get used to that, man. I never liked it. The girls, I think they like, the only reason why I dealt with them because they like me. I had never had control over. If I really liked the girl, I would go after these big girls, like these movie stars, everybody, the girls that everybody else liked, I didn't know none of these guys. I just like, I'd smash him because they like me. I never went after none of these girls.

I went after them. If it was my choice, I would go after somebody that probably all like or whatever the case may be. You know what I'm saying? That's true. Went after a girl that actually really liked. That's why he's so nasty. That's true. I was just, I seen you do a lot of favors.

I was doing favors back in the day. No, I didn't. I've really seen you do some favors. For you. It ain't no for me. Yes, it is. That's a lie. You, I'll do a lot of favorites for you.

That's a lie. That's a lie. Don't blame that on me. You like big women? You like that? No, it's not that. Show us that point of service. Nope.

It's not. It's not. It's not no big girls in there. Let me see your point of show. I don't even know. I erase everything because Carla watch everything. You're a liar. Listen, man, let's talk a little basketball.

Steph Curry, man. You're the man. Seth Curry is the leader of the baby Jane. We can give us on. Has there ever been a light-skinned person that we as melanated men have rallied him around like Steph Curry? I can't think of one, bro. Not because we all give it to him. Yeah, yo, with T-IK, with trap music, we have to give it to him.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Drake, you know what I'm saying? I respect Drake for what he's done. I'm not like the biggest Drake fan, you know what I mean? I respect him for what he's done. I respect his place in the beige brigade. You know what I mean? Yeah, he's up there, too.

He's number two. He's number two. That's number one. You're going to give TI number three? TI. TI. TI is definitely top five. The I definitely top.

What about the slow glow guy that wasn't? Now, he ain't light skin. No, he wasn't light skin. Darrell? Nah, nah, no. That wasn't light skin. Jerry Curl had everybody going crazy. Steph, man.

Steph Curry has revolutionized the game of basketball. And I saw Stephen A this week. Stephen A was on first take talking about how, you know, Steph Curry could possibly, you know, pass LeBron as far as being a player this generation. Last year during COVID on the Breakfast Club, I asked Stephen A. That very question.

And he said definitively, he was like, he respects Steph Curry and everything, but he said definitively, this is the LeBron James era. But Gibran definitely had his time and his era, so it's time to bring it on. Steph's definitely younger than LeBron. Steph Curry has beaten LeBron James three times in it. Yeah, you got it.

Now, don't get me wrong, when LeBron James came back, you know, down seven games against that 73 win team, that's one of the, the greatest, not the greatest comeback. That's why I gave it to him. But, Steph Curry still beat him three times in the finals. You know what, Jordan had his era. It was a Jordan era. This is the LeBron-Stef era. But no, it's not just that.

It's the LeBron era. It's the Steph era. It's the Cady era. It's a lot of people that ate in LeBron's so-called era. Dirkner, the Wichke eight. You know what I mean? There's a lot of different people. And I'm not saying that LeBron, clearly LeBron is, you know, one of the ghosts of this era.

But it's a lot of other people who ate within this era as well. Now, what LeBron is head and shoulders above everybody else in his business acumen and marketing and promotion. People love LeBron. It's not a better storyline. He is NBA. There hasn't been a better storyline in the NBA than LeBron Jane. You know what I mean? From him coming into the league as the chosen one, over exceeding expectations.

Yes. You know what I'm saying? Coming back and winning a chip for his actual city. Before that, leaving Cleveland to go to Miami with the decision. Mm-hmm. Then going to Miami and, you know, teaming up with the Big Three, which also changed the league because then everybody felt cool to do that. Now, you don't think Boston did it first with KG and Allen and Paris?

Yeah, they did. They cheated first. They were the first cheaters, bro. They did, but it was just, it was different about, I don't think at that time, and I could be wrong, correct me. I don't think at that time, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce and KG, were they top,

were all three of them in the top 10 players in the league? Top shooter. I mean, Ray Allen was the top shooter. One of the best shooters. Pierce was definitely slept on. And KG? I don't know what I'm saying. KG and Paul might have been up there,

but I don't know if Ray Allen was considered top 10. That was that piece that you needed. That was the Steve Kerr, the Jordan. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? They were a big fear. They definitely were. But it was just something,

I mean, at the time when they were, well, maybe not. I don't know if Chris Bosch was considered top 10. He wasn't. Definitely not over no KG. Bosch was a beast, though. Bosch was a beast. Before he cut his hair, he was a really monster.

You know what I'm saying? Then he came over there and played his part. It's all about really playing your part when you got a team. You know what I'm saying? I'm going to say that added to the storyline, the Miami Heat thing, then going back to Cleveland, like you said, to win the championship, then, you know, winning the championship, staying in Cleveland a couple more years,

then going to L.A. now, winning the chip there. And even now, like, right now, right now, LeBron James, even though the Lakers are losing, that's still a storyline. It is. You know what I'm saying? That's something for people to talk about all the time because, you know, we live in this era that loves trouble. You know what I'm saying?

They should have been stepping up. I'm not going to, can't just blame it on one man, but, bro, you're supposed to be the man right now. He's got an injury or something? I don't know. It's supposed to be his team. Like, the Lakers are supposed to be on Fannie Davis back, and everybody around him is supposed to be complimentary.

LeBron supposed to be complimentary at this point. Exactly. You know, Russell Westbrook should be compliment. at this point. Yes. You know, Mello, definitely complimentary at this point,

but it's just like AD should be dominate. Be the steak, nigga. But he's not. I'm saying? But I'm saying all that. We're going to have mashed potatoes and shit.

What? AD mashed potatoes right now. He's supposed to be the steak. I don't even know if he mashed potatoes. Man, Broccoli? I really do. I get what you saying.

He ain't there. He ain't there. He ain't showing up like he posts to. He ain't showing up like he posed to. You know what I'm saying? He ain't showed up like he posed to, but LeBron is marketed amazingly.

he's promoted amazingly. He has the best storyline in the NBA over all these years. Son coming up doing good. Son, that's another storyline. But, man, I'm talking about when it comes to basketball to me. When it comes to things I've never seen before, and I'm 43 years old. So, you know, I've seen Jordan, I've seen the Shacks.

I've seen the Kobe's God bless you dead. Seen magic. I ain't really seen magic. And towards the end, I did towards the end. Because I remember him and Jordan played in the finals together. Remember when he, you know, came back in the all-star game after catching HIV and all that stuff like that. But.

Steph Curry, I've never seen anything like him. No, you're right. Ever. And two back-to-back MVPs, three NBA finals, beat LeBron three times in the NBA finals, greatest shooter of all time, just broke the three-point record, probably going to win another championship this year. I say he probably wins a couple more before he retires.

This guy, man, leader of the Bage Brigade. Is Ray Allen, what's his name, Reggie Miller? Like, I used to be scared. I used to be scared when I see Reggie Miller. I mean, he's going to make it. But the confidence that I have about Steph right now is stupid. It's unbelievable. It's stupid.

You know what I wish we could have a count of? I wish we could see how many times from the very first time. Remember, his daddy's Dale Curry. Yes. Legendary sharpshoot himself in the NBA, Charlotte Hornets all day. So I want to know how many jump shots is Steph Curry taking in his life. Before. Millions.

When he was a kid, I'm talking about even with a little Nerf ball. You know what I'm saying? When Daddy was like, I want to know how many times as he just shot a shot. Because it's just such a rhythm that you can only get when your daddy is one of one of the greatest. Oh, that's what you're doing. That's all you do. That's all he does, man. And it makes me even think about like, what's that next generation going to be like the fact he named his son Cannon?

And you imagine if Cannon Curry is a better shooter than stuff. Or he might be out there with the gun. You know what I'm saying? Don't have no easy with that day. Like, what did you do? What can't, by the way, if you shoot half as good as you're, daddy. And your name is Cannon. Oh, you're through the roof. That marketing

the promotion we're talking about? He's out of here. He's out of here. He's out of here. He's out of here. So salute to Steph Curry, leader of the Bage Brigade. I'm really trying to put together my top five, you know, beige leaders of this generation, leaders of the light skin. Definitely Drake's on there. Steph Curry's number one.

I got to put Steph number one. And, you know, a lot of people might argue Drake, but keep in mind that Drake has a Steph Curry tattoo. So that says a lot. You know what I mean? T.I. is always going to be one of the leaders of the Lightskin. Who else is light skin? Envy?

I can't put Envy on there. For the first five? I just can't. Yeah. And I know him. Yeah, you can't do that. Hey. Yeah.

I don't think, I just don't see it. Andrew Leiskin is a motherfucker too. You know what I'm saying? You can't put them on there. I don't know if I put Obama on there either. Obama Leiccan? He got more of a Honey Brown. Yeah, a little something.

I don't know if I put Obama on there. Jay Cole, I think Jay Cole should go on there. Jay Cole, light, can. You don't think Jay Coal should be top five? Jay Co. Joe, don't like Icekin. Oh, Taylor said something real. She did.

They don't act light skin. The T.I. is not light skin. And y'all can sit there and talk about, oh, these of these colorism conversations that I hate. Hey, man, there's a difference. It's really a difference. I don't care what y'all say. But what you think? All right, so instead of well done, they are medium well.

You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I see a little pink. Too much pink. Yeah, too much peat. You can't eat it. You can't eat that shit. By the way, too am I. Oh, smell it?

Smell what? Smell it. They're good. Smell it. Smell it. What do you mean, man? He light skin? No.

Who else is his light skin? No. Let me tell you something. The funny part is one of my, one of my best friends in the world, one of your guys. Joe Frosty. Prost. Pidemi of a light skin. He likes skin.

He has light skin. Pitomy. All right. Been the epitome of light skin since I known him. Yeah. The only other person that has made me believe every single. Stereotype of light-skinned people Other than Frosty is

DJM. Envy is, boy. Yeah, envy light-skinned. Boy! And we got the same birthday. He's a light-skinned. Lord have mercy. So, y'all can say whatever you all want to say.

Will Smith ain't no light-skinned. Let me see. Yeah, let me see who they consider light-skinned. What did you Google, Taylor? Look at that. That's that. That's not. Lightskin, man.

Jamie Fox ain't light-skinned. Stop. Oh, man. Michael be Jordan definitely ain't light-skinned. Back wild. Michael Ealy, yes. Definitely, definitely. Jesse Williams. Who else here? Drake, of course.

They got J. Cole up here? They got J. Cole for the place. They got a lot of too many beige guys. Terrence Howard. Terrence Howard. Who's Terrence Howard? Man. Hard out here for a pimp. Oh, yeah, yeah, he's cool. Yeah, I like him.

He's cool. I like Terrence, too, though. A lot of these people ain't likes to you, man. Yeah, a lot of it. Not at all. Not at all. But, yeah. The moral of the story is salute to Steph Curry. All right, leader of the beige brigade.

of light skin. I can't believe I ain't know that many light skin people. All right, let's stop and pay some bills. Liquid Deaf, you may receive a call from your teenager's teacher saying they saw your child drinking a tall boy a beer in their virtual Zoom class, but it's most likely not beer. It's a new Mountain Springwater brand called Liquid Def. I see Liquid Def trucks everywhere now, by the way. I don't know if it's because, you know, they sponsor Barian Idiots, so I'm very familiar with them, but I see their ads, at least the trucks everywhere. So clearly people are drinking Liquid Death now. Why is this water called liquid death? Well, because it will brutally murder your thirst. And their infinitely

recyclable tallboy cans are helping to bring death to plastic bottles. They also donate 10% of the profits from every can sold to help kill plastic pollution. Plastic isn't actually recyclable anymore. In fact, most plastic you throw in a recycling bin actually just get sent to a landfill because it's not profitable to recycle. Aluminum is infinitely recyclable and actually profitable for recycling facilities. Now, I like liquid death because to the point of having that tall can in your hand, I don't know if y'all notice, but when I drink water, I ferociously squeeze the bottom. I know that y'all notice because y'all say that all the time on, you know, YouTube comments and everything else. I don't feel the need to do that with an aluminum can. With a plastic bottle I do,

with an aluminum can, I don't. So for me, I enjoy, you know, drinking out of the aluminum can because it keeps me from just squeezing the goddamn can. And it might be even, I don't know why I have squeezed the bottle. I don't have to do that. I couldn't just do. Even then I felt the need to squeeze it. But get free shipping on all water and merch at liquiddeaf.com slash idiots. That's liquiddeaf.com slash idiots.

all the episodes on Paramount Plus, we're actually doing our last episode of the year this week. After this week, everything shuts down for me. You know what I mean? For us? Yeah. You know, I might do brilliant idiots next week. Well, no, Andrew will be on his honeymoon.

I don't know yet, but make sure you watch the God's Honest Truth this Friday at 10 p.m. on Comedy Central Vice President Kamala Harris will be joining us this week. All right?

All right. Now, last week I sat down with Travis Scott. Got a call, not last weekend, whatever weekend that was, the weekend before we did the interview. And it was like, you know, Travis Scott wanted to sit down and have a conversation. I never met Travis Scott in my life. Never had a conversation with him ever, you know. So, you know, the fact that he said, you want to sit down with me, hey, great. You know, when they want to do it.

It was like, yo, ASAP. And so we flew out, that was a Saturday, flew out there on a Tuesday, and sat down with them, you know. I haven't really watched, haven't really looked at too many, you know, reviews of the conversation, because I think conversations like that,

it's bigger than reviews. And I hate that we live in an era where somebody can be going through something, right? a lot of different people going through something, right? Because it's not just the families. It's not just the people who lost their life. It's not just the families of the loved ones. Of the love, it's not just the families of the people who lost their life.

It's people like Travis too. So it's everybody. It's a tragedy all across the board. And I hate when, you know, tragedies like this become somebody's entertainment. Because I really don't know, you know, how you handle a situation. like this. Having definitely your hands?

Yeah. You know? Yeah, I mean, you know, because there's no way to shake it. And, you know, I think it's a lot of things even, you know, if you saw the interview, you can see in his face, he's going through it. Yeah. You can't fake that. You know what I'm saying?

And, you know, just being there and being around him for those couple of hours, like, yeah, that energy is dark and it's heavy. And, you know, there was, there was, there was. moments even after the interview where I caught him talking to yourself and talking about this situation. You know what I mean? That would be all on your mind, man. You got a death on your hands.

You know how the people's feel and all that type of stuff. But, you know, I, I know not to, like, I viewed him to be somebody totally different only because of what people were saying. Like, I really have to meet people, man. All that listening with other people saying stuff like that, man, fuck all that. By the way, we don't know him. We don't even run for two hours. You know what I mean?

In that two hours, I was just like, man, this is a lot for that young brother to be caring. You know what I mean? But like I told him in the interview, there's nothing he could say that is going to bring healing to those families. Like, those families don't want to hear that right now. Money and nothing, dude, when you got to death him.

I don't care. At all. You're a parent? Money can't help you get your kid back in that. Fuck all that money. You know what I'm saying? No. Is this got to be a psychological mind fuck

for people to die watching you do something that you love to do and those people were there because they love what it is that you do. You know what I mean? Like you would never want anything like that to happen. The total opposite happened. That's the thing for me.

It's like we acting like this was purposeful. Sometimes people, like I watched the way the media reacts and everything and they're acting like this was his fault. Intentional. Now, you know, has he been arrested for inciting a riot and stuff before? Yes.

You know what I mean? The energy of his music. We had this conversation during the interview, too. Did it set the tone for people to come out there and while out and stuff? Sure. But in that moment, did he get on that stage and do all of that? No. Yeah.

So, you know what I mean? I think in a situation. There's so many songs that do that, though. All the times people, man, what? I grew up on crunk. We grew up on crunk. So, you know. Like, what the fuck is?

What the fuck is pop that pussy then? Pop that pussy. they pop that pussy. I mean, I'm just saying. I'm going to tell you right now because it's like, you see the young girls doing that. You're like, you don't really want them to do that.

I'm just saying you don't really want them to do that, though. I got killed in the process of people popping pussy. But you don't really want them to do that, though. You know what I'm trying to say? You don't really want them popping that pussy like, yo, oh, cut that off. You know what I'm saying?

I do know that if somebody was on that stage and they were singing pop that pussy, they wouldn't be getting blamed. You know what I mean? at Astro World because the crazy part is this man and I keep saying this over and over you can't control human behavior

Yes So it's like even I saw something this week where like somebody was getting syringes stabbed in their butt at a At a concert here in New York Easy, you know what's it New York? I don't know if it was New York Sleepy Hollow, that's the rapper's name, Sleepy Hollow

They say with people getting stabbed in his butt You don't blame Sleepy Hollow for that? No, you can't. You know what I'm saying? I'm not blaming Sleepy Hollow because some crazy person came to his concert with a syringing was stabbing people in their butt Unless he got a song called

Dab him in the boat with a syringe. You know what I mean? But that's still not his fault, though. That's what I'm trying to say with the lyrics. You cannot go off all the lyrics that people are saying. But, yo, do you think that Papa Molly and all these Mali songs and stuff? They want the kids and stuff to do that?

They don't want these people to stab people with syringes? No, okay, that's a good point. Whether they want them to do it or not, it's still an influence. You know what I'm saying? But then a lot of these artists can say, look, it's just performance art. It's art.

You know what I mean? But art influences people. But that's why what you put out there into the universe, you got to be very cognizant and intentional of what you put out there into the universe. You know what I mean? Like I don't have the luxury of getting on the microphone and saying it's all entertainment.

I used to say that back in the day, but you quickly realized like, no, motherfucker, your words are not just all entertainment. I still say it. You can incite shit. You know what I mean? You can traumatize people. There's a lot of different things.

Have people want to fight you? Have people want to fight you? You know what I mean? There's a lot of different things you can do with your words, man. So it's like I don't, I can't go with that as just entertainment excuse. Also, too, when I was a kid once and I'm, all of that shit influenced me growing up. Mm-hmm. Beans fucked me up.

Who? Beanie Sego fuck me up. I love Beanie, but Beanie didn't, yeah, Beanie and Stiles had you fucked up. It's Beanie styles and Hove. So I mean. Ove had me fucked up in a good way. In a good way, though. I mean, Beanie had me fucked up in a, in a bad way.

So I needed Beans because I was in that world and he helped me get through that world because I was already in it. One thing I always like about Beans and styles, though, they always talk, all of them, being styles ain't ho. They always talked about the consequences of the game. That's why I was dead. That's what was missing from this era. Nobody's talking about the consequences of the game. You know what I mean? Y'all talking to me about all these drug use, but not talking about how motherfuckers is really a thing out here and having seizures and having to go to rehab and having overdose and not.

Talk to me about that side of the game. You know what I mean? Because we lost a lot from that, too. Yes, man. I was reading something today about EDM contracts. and all the overdoses that happened at EDM concerts. You know what I'm saying? So it's like, yo, tell me about some of these consequences.

And, man, it's just sad when you look at this situation like Astro World because I truly do feel like it's like anything else. Travis didn't want that to happen. You want people to come to this show and have a good time. Rage coach is a real culture, just like Crunk was a real culture. Plus, rage comes from rock and roll. Rage comes from rock and roll and heavy metal to mosh pits and all of that. Damn, so I know it used to be crazy back in the day.

Oh, come on, man. By the way, this happened at rock festivals before. It happened to a Pearl Jam concert. It happened at a Metallica concert. It happened to Woodstock before. You know what I mean? It happened with the who. By the way, I ain't never heard none of these motherfuckers music.

But it's happened to these concerts. But did they get the same backlash that Travis got? I wasn't around then, but I don't think so. We can't hear you, Taylor. You got to get on the mic. Do you think that he should perform? Do I what? I don't think he should stop his craft, no.

I'm saying? He went through something. Do you stop? after you have a car accident. I mean, you kill somebody in a car accident. You can say it's dry. No. What are you talking about, man?

What are you talking about? You said he still would perform. No, I'm saying, how long, how many of these things that he should, like, go back? Performing? I don't know. But I do know this. You're back on the horse, bro. You fall.

I think all of these, uh, and I think all of these festivals are making a grave mistake by doing that because, well, number one, if I was Travis's team, I wouldn't like. If I was Travis' team, I'd have pulled him from all these festivals before he got canceled. But that would just be, to me, that would have just been the right thing to do. Responsible thing. You know what I mean? That would have been the responsible thing to do. Like, if I'm Travis and I'm this team, I would have just pulled away from all of these festivals, like, for the foreseeable future.

But also, I think that these festivals are making a mistake because this can happen again. Yes. It's happened before and it can happen again. When you're dealing with these large crowds of people, 50,000 and 75,000 to 100,000, people, you're relying on human behavior to keep everybody safe. Do we realize it's human beings? Forget just those large crowds. Us four in this room right now are relying on us to keep each other safe.

Literally. What have you snapped? What if Taylor snaps? And happened before. We've been in this room with people we thought we trusted and they've snapped. Yeah. No, really. Literally.

Literally. Literally. Snapped. Yes. And attacked. Yes. You understand what I'm saying? We've got to rely on each other,

making sure we do the right things, yes. We're all as human beings relying on each other. There's no, there's technically no place you go that safe if you're around random strangers. There's these people that you don't know, literally. Even when you know them, because you don't know what they're going through. No, literally.

Like, God bless the dead. Think about all these cases about these football players that we're hearing about with CTE, and they end up snapping. You know what I'm saying? I just seen a video, I'm not sure, was it in Maryland or something like that. The guy killed his baby mom.

His baby mother. Man, I'm so mad at you. I'm putting that in the group chat. And then killed his former ex-wife. Like, what the fuck? I don't understand. But that, that happens all the time. I don't understand the logic.

I don't understand the logic. I don't understand the logic. God bless that brother. God bless everybody involved in that. That's the week. You need a Jesus, man. Because you know what? I don't even want to talk about it.

It's a lot of things that I turned around because I knew Jesus. And I know it is way more consequences. I turned around because of Jesus. And you need a crutch. You need something stronger to overpower yourself to make you turn around, not do that. Because a lot of people did, people do everybody wrong all the time.

I just think that if I saw that video and the first thing I thought was, well, where the kids going to go now? Everybody did. That's what I'm saying. If you love the kids, and this is about the kids and not being able to see your kids,

what happens to the kids now? Not any part of the system? And his girl was pregnant. Traumatized, too. Yeah, man. Like, I don't know. I mean, well, that kid is gone. So I guess the other kid.

I'm not judging. I'm not judging because I don't know what gets somebody to that point. You know what I'm saying? I don't know what. The crutch need to be Jesus. Whatever you was crutching or whatever you didn't have, you fell short, man. You're weak.

I don't know what internal issues get somebody to that point, man. Because that's, that's snap, snap. Like, that's bigger than snap. I saw that. I was like, the first thing I said was why y'all send me this? Number two, I said, is this real? because I couldn't believe it was real. Yeah, towards the end of when they shut off,

I was like, is it real for real too? Oh, my God, man. First and peace to all of those people involved in that tragic situation, definitely sending all the families healing energy. I don't wish that on nobody, man. But, you know, just go watch the Travis Scott interview with it on YouTube.

Like I said, my personal opinion is just like, you know, I don't know how one person gets blamed for that whole tragedy. And boy, it's got to be really, really hard to really be going through something like that in this era, man. So who could charge? You remember the guy that was shooting in Vegas?

You got hanging out the window. Yes. Who got charged for that? I mean, whose fault was that? Well, if there was a rapper on stage and that rapper was a rapper that rapped about violence and then he probably, even if they didn't rap about violence, they probably would get to blame for it.

They love that. I'm telling you, man. Listen, they love indicting hip-hop. Hip-hop gets blamed for so fucking much. But that guy was out of a way. shooting at the whole crowd. Yes. And hitting people up.

Let that have been a rap show. That's what I'm trying to say. If that would have been a rap show, they'd have been blaming the music, man. I'm telling you, they would have made the connection between guns and, you know, the gun violence and the stuff rappers rap about. I'm telling you they would have made that connection.

They did it on CNN with Travis. When BDOT was on Travis, that's one of the first things the anchors did. They put up all the times he's, you know, I guess, been arrested for incite in a riot, and they was quoting his lyrics. Like, yo, I don't see that with no other genre, real. No.

They only do that with us. Nah. What song was playing when the guy was shooting in? You know what I'm saying? Like, it was out of control. It was kind of crazy. But who festival was it? Was it a...

No. It was a country festival. It was a country festival. I don't know, man. I just want us to give more people grace, man. Just simply because, yo, all of us make mistakes. And I wouldn't wish none of that on my worst enemy. I wouldn't wish what's going on with Travis Scott on my worst.

Number one, because I wouldn't want to see nine people get killed at a concert. Anything that we do. Nine people get killed. Anywhere. Anything that we get killed. We're relying on human behavior. Literally. Like, literally, if I, when we walk outside this building today, we're just hoping everybody

cool. That's it. Like, straight up. I had a motherfucker in my truck, so I know we just don't know at any time. Anything always happened. And my shorts, she always, like, he laughed at me because she was like, last night. She's like, what you went for Christmas? A hurricane kid.

Ha-ha. And I was like, actually, if you could buy me a birthday. bunch of, like, ropes and flashlights and blades and shit like that, I'd be happiest out. Man, you should see me every single night. The whole perimeter of my house get checked. Everything get checked. Everything is locked down. You can do what I got in my house?

That's precious to me. That is my heart outside of my chest. So it's like, I can't play around with this. If I lose this, this is it. I don't trust nobody. Yo, think about how spooky it is in life that we drop our kids. kids off to school. Look about that.

No, for real. We rely, man. We're relying on some, and in some cases, people we never met. I don't want to talk about that. I think about that every fucking time I get on the plane. And every time it's like there's only people that can get you is the ones you trust. It's the ones that you let do it. The people that you, like, really shying away might be the best ones to watch your kids.

You know what I'm saying? You know what I went on the flight the other day? Because I always try to talk to the pilot, right? Just to say high. Respect, yes. They said it was the Pala's birthday and the Pala was standing by the bathroom. I said, hey man, happy birthday, man.

Yep, you know what I mean? Because I need to make sure you are in good spirit. Yep. Because all that Polly got to do is have a bad fucking day. That's it. It's so many people. They say fuck this. That's right.

It's so many people we take for granted. We take for granted our teachers. Yep. Public school teachers. We drop our kids off the public school teachers. Get them a Christmas present. With our kids, yes. Have you ever said hi to your kids' teacher?

Like, hello? Had a conversation? The pilots are planes? When we're going on these restaurants? Yes, man. Talk to the chef, man. Give him something. How are you doing, sir?

Do you understand how much we rely on humans? We're all relying on each other to keep each other. Even the gas station, man. That motherfucker would be, I'll be on my phone. He gets me putting gasoline all over your shit. And all the idea I do is lighter and you fucked up. What are you going to do? That's why I don't understand you rule, motherfuckers.

I don't understand rule motherfuckers. I don't understand people that go in restaurants and talk shit to waitresses. I don't understand people that go on planes, talk crazy, the pilots. You do not know. Don't be like that, man. I hope I was inside the restaurant, put my meat on the forks and stuff. The only bad people, I think God sent them people there at that time and error in my life so they can get the silverware, my meat on it. You're just trying to justify some bullshit that you did. I am. Okay, you put, you put your, you put your, the utensils on your meat

because you like the feeling of that. No, that's not true. I really did not want to be there. I said, my mom, it's a couple of jobs we could have went to. I end up going to the car a lot. But it was a couple of jobs you're like, you're getting this job. You get 30 days and you get to work for 30 days and then you get to quit. I said, all right. It was a restaurant. I said, man, I don't want to work at a restaurant. I had to sit back there and wash the dishes and walk the floor.

Man, why? Why was you sitting on plates? I wasn't sitting on the place, man. No, I didn't. It was just forks. It was like, well, I make sure they wash or they don't come back. I can't believe I'm saying this. You told me you sat on the place with your bare ass, man.

I'm not doing that. Back of the day stuff, man. Back of the day. That's what you told me you did a little twerk. Before college, man. This is out of control. How stupid? That's crazy.

Yes, Taylor. Have y'all ever not been able to pay at a restaurant? Like, what happens? Do you really have to wash the dishes after? I've never done. Wax was the king of walking out of restaurant. No, you lie. I mean, it was going to say.

Wax is the king of walking out of restaurants. I mean, how many times they embarrass me? He's not been from IHop and Columbia South Carolina. Because of you. Because he never wanted to pay, he walked out of the restaurant. No, it was. What was that at? Right there on Assembly.

Assembly Street. The City is so good. So much love when we're going there. And he's walking out on the bill. It wasn't that, man. I wasn't going to be the last motherfucker out. I never did that. No.

Oh, no, I did one time. It was that time. I don't want who got caught and I went to the bathroom first. The only reason I remember. Everybody was gone. They were like, sir. Everybody said it was me. And I'm like.

But did you have the money or you just walked out? I didn't have all that motherfucking money for all the people. Hell no. There's a bunch of us. The crazy part is... The whole club follows every time we lead a club. Every time.

The whole bat part is us. You got to think, Wax's popular football players. Yeah. Frosty DJing. I'm a radio host. We, you know... They used to fuck with her. And everybody in I hop.

Everybody is I. We're going to go. We're going to I. We're going to I. The whole section. I used to pay, though. Yeah, I mean, yeah. That was all the motherfuckers. The bill wasn't as crazy.

Now that when I think about it now, I'm like, eh, sometimes the bill will be like $186. Back then that seemed like a lot of money. Yeah. You know, but now it ain't too crazy. I guess, you know, a $6 a plate now that you think about it back when they, if it's 20 people, there's $120,000. Yeah, it ain't anything crazy. And I remember Dev showed, for my birthday last year, Dev posted this old-ass screenshot from when she used to live in New York. This was from like 2010, maybe 2009.

I don't remember. Dev was like, it's me texting her. Like, y'all'm out. She's like, why? I'm like, leaving before the bill comes. So clearly I did it. I did it before.

Clearly I did it before. All right, let's pay some bills. Let's pay some billers. Okay. Hey, man, got to lose Squarespace. Square space been riding with brilliant idiots for a long time, man. Domains, websites.

Let's get back to the show. Taylor, give us some asking idiots, man. So we can get the fruct out of hell. We got a long, not a long day. He's got some things to do. We had to give you all an episode this week, man.

I didn't want to. I was thinking, I was like, you know what? Should we? And I was like, I don't know if we're going to be here next week. So let's come in and talk to our people's. Well, since Christmas is coming up, Mm-hmm. Ace draws Japan.

What was the worst? Christmas gift you ever received. I never celebrated Christmas. I grew up Jehovah Witness. I never had a Christmas. I didn't have Christmas until I got older and became an adult, had my own family, and now we got our own Christmas traditions. But I've never been the type to, even now I don't look to receive gifts.

Like, I don't, it's whatever. I like, I like being able to, I like when that tree is up and all your kids are smiling and your wife is smiling. You know what I mean? Like, that's what I care about. I don't. I don't, you know, there could be no worst Christmas gift for me. I like being alive. I'm telling you, when you wake up on Christmas Day and you look and you're like, damn, yo.

You're laughing and smiling and stuff. That's what is about. Oh, my God, that's what it's about. But again, me too. I was always poor. I always 12 brothers and sisters living in Jersey. My Christmas is always shared with my brothers. So we get one thing and we always share it.

So I always have to give it to them. I mean, because I was always in. to always everything else. Just like I am I into books? I'm I into books. You know what I'm saying? Somebody give me a book. I'm not going to read it.

So I give it to my brothers. You know what I'm saying? So I was always into other things. I mean, I was at my other activity. I was always in other thing. Shit like books and water. I ain't really fucking that. You know what I mean?

Yeah, too. I hold my breath a lot. You know what I mean? Y'all motherfuckers like to breathe and shit. You know what I mean? I thought about that earlier today. Somebody said, I don't know who we was talking to, but somebody said there's nothing

that everybody on this planet It does at the same time. And I was like, that's a fucking lie. Breathe. I don't know why I thought about that after they said it. And I didn't want to interrupt their train and thought because it was just, it sounded like some sarcastic shit to say, but it's true. Breathing.

We're all doing that at the same exact motherfucking time. I do, you know, the best thing about the holidays, too, is like the reflection. You know what I'm saying? So you get to, like, reflect on the year. You reflect on your life in a lot of situations. And for me, I know for a fact, I got to a place of worthiness, December of 2019 around the holiday season, just reflecting and reminiscing and things like that.

I finally got to a place of worthiness. So that's the beauty of the holiday season. I do enjoy this season. It's the most wonderful time of the year, even though it feel like ain't shit happening. Yeah, right now, just dead. Where the fuck of the decorations in New York City, man? I'm not talking about people's individual houses and stores.

I'm talking about, like, when you're walking down the street and you see the race up. Not the rakes. What that shit called? Reefs. The reefs up and shit. You know what I mean? Even in Roxy right here, we're looking at, man.

This used to be decked out and everything, man. My motherfuckers are not in the holidays. Where is it? I hear not one Christmas song. None. I ain't heard no Christmas music yet either. Nothing. It's getting it looking like Christmas, man.

Nothing. It ain't feeling a lot like Christmas yet. Not at all. But you know what I was going to ask? Ain't trees alive? And you, um. No, for real. What's the next asking they did you at a tale?

Because can you kill a tree? Because if wood is alive. A tree is alive. It's a plant. Okay. No, no, I'm talking about the bark and everything. Yes. If it's alive.

That's why it's alive. That's why flowers die. This is not alive. It's a table. This is wood. No, man. No. So you could kill trees.

Yes, you can kill trees. And I don't understand why we keep killing trees. It's the stupidest thing in the world because humans and trees exchange breath. That's not. But it's the oxygen and it's a filter for us. We give off carbon dioxide. They get off carbon dioxide. It's carbon something.

We give off some type of carbon. And they give us carbon. They give us H2O. Right? H2O is water. Oh. They give us the O in the H2. They give us the old.

I knew that shit. I felt happy as hell I knew it too. Hey, mark that. Put that shit down. This is why it's the brink. They give us oxygen. So we give off the carbon something and they give off oxygen. And I don't understand why we keep cutting down all the motherfucking trees.

And you want to why people got asthma and shit. Hold on. And there's less people in the world. So what the fuck are cutting it down for? Why you cut all the goddamn trees down? You know what people dying? People die every day. Huh?

People die every single day. More people that buy houses. People are born every day too, though, Wax. They ain't buying houses. They ain't buying property. They're babies. I don't get what you're saying. You know what I'm saying?

You know what I'm saying? It ain't just about houses. It's about Starbucks, bro. I get what you're saying, but if... I feel buildings. Even though I think it's stupid... But why are you doing that? People are dying, so why you need more spaces?

There ain't enough Starbucks out there? That's why they need to stop. Stop cutting down all the trees and then wonder why people having respiratory problems and fucking asthma and can't breathe correctly. Where it's born. That's probably what COVID come from because they're cutting down these fucking trees. Because you know, trees is a filter. Like in a cigarette, the filter right there, that's what trees is.

So now all the fucking air is all fucked up. His land is fucked up because all these trees fucked up. The difference between us and everybody else is just the Brewery Nididious podcast. We let you know that we're putting out misinformation. Oh. But it's for a good cause. You can find a support for climate change in this conversation somewhere.

Give us another asking idiot Taylor. Sirka underscore 1993 wants to know best 2021 memory. Hmm. Ooh. My son being born. Oh. Yeah. All right.

I had a lot of good 2021 memory. Same. New daughter born this year. The time we spend at our new studio, the happy accident, the God's Honest Truth, is incredible. I love it. Love being there. Love the cultural institution we're building over there.

Thoroughly enjoyed myself and my wife's 40th. Both of them. We did a couple parties for my wife's 40th. Well, actually, first of all, salute to everybody in Turks and Kato. You know, I don't be liking to talk about where I be at when I be Yeah, but salute to everybody in Turks and Caicos. We had a great time in Turks and Caicos. Salute to the homie, Peter Gay.

That's a woman, by the way. You know, she really took care of us. You know, everybody at the Shaw Club and Turks and Cakes. They show a lot of love. Every time we go to Turks, they show so much love, man. Salute to Turks, man, man, Denario, salute to you. And we had a great time. He had a great time.

He was there for like five, six days. We actually bought in my wife's 40th, you know, in Turks and Kekos. Slued to Spinderella. DJ Spinderella came through. She provided the soundtrack, you know, for my wife's born day. And then the next weekend, you know, when we got back, we got back on that Wednesday. So then that Saturday, you know, I had a small little get-together in New Jersey. Just like we had a small get-together in Turks, you know, because, you know, we keep the circle tight.

But, you know, suit to everybody at Bedburger. My wife, she likes hamburgers, you know. And there's a spot in New Jersey, New York area called Bearburger. and I got it for a private event and my wife had no idea. So like a lot of our folks pulled up from South Carolina, salute to Kim, man. Oh man, salute to Kim.

Kim, Kim, I love you so much, Kim. That's my wife's college friend, you know, she put together everything, you know, in Turks and Kekos. Like she put together the whole itinerary, but then she, you know, came back to Jersey that weekend. To surprise my wife again and, you know, all my wife's friends pulled up, you know,

for both. Either Turks are the spot in Jersey. And we had a great time that night in Bedburg. And I got a salute. You know, my wife has two favorite artists, two of her favorite artists ever of all time, are Erica Badu and Jill Scott. My wife's 40.

If you know, I had to have one of them. You know what I mean? So Erica Badu, she pulled up in Jersey, man. And, man, let me tell you y'all something. If y'all ain't never heard DJ lowdown, Loretta Brown. Wow. If y'all ain't never heard DJ lowdown Loretta Brown provided a soundtrack for a party, y'all are nuts.

I was shocked. Me too. You too. She's too much of a celebrity. She's much of a singer to have that too. That's dangerous. Because you know, you got these celebrity DJs who just push buttons. Yeah.

Like DJ Lowdown Loretta Brown, Erica Badu came in there. Jacking on, took the jacket off, put the scully on. Yeah, she started scratching. She started off with the, um, do, do, do, do. You know what's the beginning? What's the beginning of that Dawson-Effects record? What record is that?

I mean, I think it's Dossi FX. I don't know what it was. I don't know what it was that. Salute to Eric. But even, even, and she has her, everybody always got an Erica Bidu like section inside there. You know what I'm saying?

And she did it with so fide. Absolutely. So, salute to Eric Badaud, man. Sloot to Nephi, you know, at the Black Home and Newark for, you know, really decking out the bed burger the right way. And yeah, Erica Badu made it real special. You know, sung happy birthday to my wife. And, you know, that was a great way to celebrate the 40 of Born Day.

But that's the type of things I enjoy. I enjoy experiences, you know what I mean? So that was a great question. So that was a, yeah, those are my 2021 memories, man. It's been a really good year. Also, I mean, also, you know, when Tamika Mallory's book came out, State of Emergency, How to Win in the country we built, just watching people be able to like, you know, live out their dreams.

That's always my pleasure, you know what I mean? Watching the need of Copax put out shallow, waters, you know, like those moments, like watching Tamika be on her, her press run, you know, for her book, you know, same thing with Anita, like doing Drew Barrymore show at show with Anita. Like, my greatest moments literally come in watching other people enjoy themselves. You know what I'm saying? Like, I like seeing other people have a good time. I like seeing other people, you know, be filled. That's what I like. That's what makes me feel. That's honestly. I like throwing assists more than I like scoring points.

Watching other people happy, other people, you know, energized and full of the spirit, that's what I like. What else we got, tell again? Can I say thank you? I said thank you to, Eric, about doing it? Just thank you. That's what I was saying all that to say, thank you to all those people that helped me make those memories possible. Man, do you can go underscore what we're here wants to know. If you go back in time and stop one event from happening, what would it be?

It's interesting. Yeah, wow. I don't know, because it just depends how you see time. Like, all my concept of time come from movies. So if you could go back in time and stop certain events from happening, you know, and change things like back to the future, sure. But if you go back in time, like, in any game and it just creates another timeline, I don't know. And then I also wonder if, because I truly believe, man, every single thing that has ever happened in my life,

It's happening for a reason. Everything. I got two. You got two? What are there? Boys in the hood, Ricky, and Mufasa and Lion King. What? No, I can see that.

I can see why you see that. Them two right there. Thomas J. and my girl, too, bro. You never seen my girl? Man, yo, Thomas J. Was in the fucking woods minding his goddamn business trying to get something for Veda and fucking he bumped the beehive and he's allergic to bees, man.

He fucked Thomas J. Up, man. Glasses dropped. Oh my god That shit was sad Ricky should have fucking dived Or went to the left Zigzag

Do something bro Zigzag He was a fucking running back Bro Uh huh huh hit the fence He was scared man Fight a flight That's the other thing

We don't talk about When he comes to that movie You gotta go back And look at those Look at those movies Through a lens Of being a healed person Ricky

Ricky What the fuck He was in fight of flight mode He was just trying to survive He wasn't thinking Whatever He wasn't thinking man He was out

He dropped the goddamn Milk carton And tried to go They shot Rick Dull. She won the corn mill for the biscuits or something, man. Now, he was drinking milk? He was drinking milk, yeah. Damn, man, they shot Ricky Dowell.

What about fucking Mufasa, man? Mufasa could have went over more where Simba was at. You know what I'm saying? He could have went over because Simba was chilling. Who? Neither one of them had to die. Why do that? We couldn't have a happy ending to go to the NFL.

We needed fucking Mufusza because, you know, bitch. You know what I'm saying? He grew up with the two little motherfuckers. You could have killed Trey. Trey? Trey? We needed to swing, though.

We needed to swing. You could have just killed Doe Boy, and we would have got the same. We wanted that instead of Doe Boy got out there, you know what I'm saying? We would have got the same message they was trying to give us. Yes. You did not have to kill Ricky. John Singleton, God bless the dead. Like, that shit would not ever sit right with me.

Ricky did not have to die to give us the message. We're about the crack kids. It was about the lady that with the kids. I don't want the lady with the kids died, but she was bad with the kids. It was in this fucking street. We got it. Dude was paralyzed.

We understood that. Yes. You know what if he couldn't get away and he got shot? That's right. Dope boy could have died. God damn, man. He's in the street's crazy shooting the shit. Like, shoot Ricky in the leg or something,

but still let him have a career. That would be a lawyer later. Matter of fact, him and the father got together and putting more signs up and shit. That shit hurt my heart, man. Yeah, I was fucked up. I don't like that. That's what I would have changed.

I don't like a lot of you. Them too right there. I don't like that. That shit's about me to this day. Ricky and Mufuson. Hey, man, what the fuck? That shit ain't had to happen, man. What else, Taylor?

Give us another accident. It was like a motherfucker. T.M. Chomachalal, I guess. He wants to know, what do you not like about yourself? How are you fixing it? Everything I didn't like about myself, I've been started fixing six years ago. And all my issues that I didn't like about myself, man, internal. You know what I mean?

So that's what that's what me going to therapy was about. all my issues are internal issues and those are the things that I'm constantly, constantly, constantly working on. And I'm getting good. I'm getting really good because I don't have a... I used to have a...

I used to have a need to, like, ruin you. I felt like you fucked me over. Feeling like that. I don't feel that no more. I don't have the desire. And I haven't had the desire in a long time. Even before therapy,

I haven't had the desire in a long time because I always felt like success was always the best revenge. That's what I like. I like seeing motherfuckers mad that we keep winning. That's what I like. Especially people that pray and pray and pray

on your downfall and have so much things to say about you. I like that. Because I know that drives you crazy because the truth to the matter is I'm not sitting around talking about you the way you're talking about me. Guarantee, how you think about it?

I am not even thinking about it. You know what I'm saying? So it's like I love that. I love to see somebody spend countless amounts of times. minutes, hours, whatever it is, talking about what it is that I'm doing, or me and my team doing.

You say somebody that you want to get back at somebody, what was the question? Oh, I want to fix, they say to come with age, learn how to say no, you know what I'm saying? Boundaries. Boundaries. I have to learn boundaries.

And shouldn't give a fuck as much if I, after I say no. And they always come back. And I always come back, where you at? I think it's because we got molested, bro. I do. I think it's because we got molested when we was young. I've been talking, I talked to my therapist about this,

and I talked to Bishop T.D. Jakes about this. I really think that when you've been molested, when you've been young, you turn into like a people pleaser. And you compromise yourself to make other people feel better. Especially for me, because I know when I got molested, when I was eight, when I stopped letting the woman do it, she started calling me ugly. and saying I had a big nose and all this other stuff.

You know what I mean? All right, come on. Yeah, so being that I didn't want her calling me ugly and saying I had a big nose, it was like, okay, well, whatever, I'll let you do whatever you want to me. So I think that being that we were molested when we were young, both of us.

It was like, it's like something I have to do. Like, I have to try to please this person, even though I know I don't want to do it. Even when it's through your own detriment, even when you don't want to do it. It's a lot right now. Even though I fucking know better, because I'm going through it right now with myself.

I know that. know that I'm supposed to say no about something, but I'm just allowing it to happen knowing I'm going to be pissed the fuck off and I'm going to be the one losing. I'm just letting this slide. Yeah. But I can't say nothing. Why can't I say nothing right now, man? Oh, man. And by the way, you know, I talk about being molested when I was eight, but there's been other times in my life that I've felt those same feelings I felt when I was molested by as an adult. Right now.

I'm feeling like right now. I was compromising myself for the sake of other people. I know better. And the whole thing is I know better. I'm just compromising myself for what reason. And I fucking know better. And I feel like if I put my foot down, somebody else feeling is going to get hurt.

But I'm fucking know better. So shut the fuck up sometimes. I can't keep letting you do me dirty just because it's going to make me feel bad. Which is wild. And people that are really manipulators will use that against you. They're going to think. I'm getting it done. to me right now.

Motherfuckers who disrespect you and then get mad at your reaction to the disrespect and then turn into the victim. And made me say sorry. Word of on. How? How you blame me because you disrespected me or you did something that you had no business doing to me? I reacted and now you're mad at me because

you're now like, oh, you hate me. You hate me. You're the bad guy. You've been one to do this. Nah, I only reacted because it is. I did not react. That would have been fucked you up. These people are crazy out there.

Once again, we're relying on human behavior to keep each other safe and sane. And these motherfuckers will drive you crazy because they'll really have you thinking, like you'll literally be having a conversation with a person confronting them about something they did to you. They'll start apologizing to you first. And then 20 minutes later, they blaming you for the bullshit that they did. And you said, like, what the polo fuck up? How we get here. Yep.

They know how to do it. You know what I'm saying? Before you know, they'd be looking until you look at the sky and they'd be tying your shoe strings together and say, a dog right there, and you fucking fall. Word is born. You know what I'm saying? What the fuck?

Tie my fucking shoe strings together, motherfucker. All right. It's time to go. It got dark. All right. I mean, we started talking about molestation. We talked about Ricky and Mephasahein. Like, it just got dark.

That was all me. It got dark. Listen, as always, if you listen to this podcast, you think we're smart, you think we're intelligent, you think we're brilliant. You're absolutely right. But if you listed this podcast and you think we're just a couple of idiots who don't know shit you're right too it's the brilliant idiotice podcast thank you for listening
