Starting point is 00:00:00 It's so stupid. It's positively brilliant. The Brilliant Idiots Podcast. Shalaman Nagat. Andrew Shultz. We are the Brilliant Idiots. Welcome to another quarantine motherfucking week of the Brilliant Idiot podcast. Are you going stir crazy yet, Andrew? Nah, not really, man.
Starting point is 00:00:17 I'm enjoying life. Yeah, me too. But you're at home, right? You haven't left the crib at all? Haven't left the crib at all. I went to the grocery store one time. I think that was maybe last Sunday, Sunday before last. might risk my life going to the grocery store again this week.
Starting point is 00:00:33 What'd you get? I mean, I don't remember. Like food. Nah, don't lie. Don't lie. You know there's some specific shit. If you're going to the grocery store, there's some specific shit. But I'm going to risk my life to go to the grocery store again this week.
Starting point is 00:00:52 Yeah? And pick up some more stuff. And hopefully just, you know, I like the fact. I actually, you know what's so. dope about life. What dope about life is watching the news now, like watching Cuomo and watching CNN and how they're talking about the curve starting to flatten in New York. It's been about four days of good
Starting point is 00:01:13 news coverage, you know what I'm saying? For the most part, I mean, don't get wrong. People are dying, which is horrible. But they're saying that the curve is starting to get flattened in New York. And I'm seeing that like even in Europe. I think that they said that it's working. New Zealand. New Zealand said they didn't flatten their curve. They smashed it. And it's all because it is social distances. I would just tell everybody to continue to do that.
Starting point is 00:01:35 Yo, it's weird to social distancing because I don't really understand it. Explain. It's quite simple. Like, I get the, how the fuck does it transfer? That's what I'm trying to understand. What do you mean? I don't get it. Like, how does it transfer?
Starting point is 00:01:51 Like, if I'm around you, all of a sudden, I breathe when you breathe, then it goes. Well, I don't, I read that. I don't know. That sounds a bit much to me. but who am I to argue with the experts? The experts said that if you breathe, if you talk, it can be transferred. So then why do they run us go to the grocery store? Like if us just being in the grocery store and we're breeding in this controlled environment,
Starting point is 00:02:11 if that's what transfers it, then 100% you should say don't go to the grocery store or that's where it's transferred. Well, that's why you got a way to mask. And I mean, I guess like let's just start off the show. This is positively brilliant. Chinese ahead of the curve again, man. Chinese and Michael Jackson, baby. Okay. Chinese been wearing masks at the airports forever.
Starting point is 00:02:31 And we used to be wondering what the fuck do they know? What's wrong with them? What's wrong with our good old American air? Son, what could you help them? That's where it started. I mean, it started in Wuhan, but clearly they was prepared. They were not prepared. None of this shit works.
Starting point is 00:02:44 I guess what I'm trying to say is if it's going to get you, it's going to get you. Like Fauci was on TV today or yesterday, he was on TV. He's like, I don't think American should shake hands anymore even after this. I'm like, do you know how Chinese people greet each other? A bow. That shit don't stop nothing. If it's going to get you, it's going to get you. Unless China's lying, they got a handle on it better than most. China, lying?
Starting point is 00:03:08 Wuhan doesn't have their lockdown anymore. They announced that today. After 76 days, it's no more lockdown. I don't believe nothing that comes out of China. Absolutely nothing. Only the sneakers. Well, let's believe the numbers that are here in New York. If they're saying the curve is starting to flatten, great. But when all of this shit is over, I'm still going to put on my motherfucking mask. I'm gonna still put on my motherfucking gloves.
Starting point is 00:03:29 I might even get me a goddamn monkey to really pay homage to Michael Jackson. You hear me? I might just go all the fucking way with it. So you're saying you're never going to go back to normal life. You're going to let the virus win. Nah, that's a rap. Normal as we know it is a rap.
Starting point is 00:03:43 By the way, normal as we know it hasn't been normal for three years. It hasn't been normal for three years. I'm going to be honest. Normal for some people hasn't been normal for 11 years. Because think about how abnormal a black president was for some people. Right? And I was having this conversation with somebody yesterday. Tell me what you think about this. Brilliant idiot hot take. Everybody says, oh, things would have been so much different if, you know, Barack Obama was in the White House.
Starting point is 00:04:10 And yeah, I mean, Barack might have responded much quicker. Of course, there would have been a global pandemic team in place. But I still think you would have had a different method, but kind of like the same outcome. And the reason I think that is because it's the same reason for Donald Trump. If Donald Trump tells everybody to stay home and that, you know, they need to practice social distancing. And if Donald Trump was to implement a mandatory mandate throughout the country for everybody to stay home, people just automatically want to rebel. They just want to rebel against government. They're like, fuck that. This guy's a racist.
Starting point is 00:04:40 He's a bigot. We don't believe in martial law. We're going to rebel against this shit. Do you really think that those rural white sovereigners are going to listen to a black man telling him to stay home? Yeah. You really believe that. Yeah. No, not at all.
Starting point is 00:04:56 They would have rebelled against Obama the same way people on the left want to rebel against Trump right now. And listen, whether you agree with Donald Trump or not, if he's telling you, along with the CDC and Dr. Fossey and all these people stay in the house, social distancing, instead of trying to come up with all these conspiracy theories, like, oh, 5G towers and they're just trying to implement martial law, how about just listen to the fucking CDC? A broken clock can be right twice a day. you don't have to agree with nothing else he says. But if he tells you to social distance because it will stop, you know, it will flatten the curve and stop spreading shit, listen to him.
Starting point is 00:05:31 But a lot of people just aren't going to listen to him because he's Donald Trump. Just like a lot of people wouldn't have listened just because it's Barack Obama. And I think we'd have been in the same place. I think that we don't listen because we have a rebellious spirit and it's really difficult
Starting point is 00:05:43 to tell Americans what to do. You almost have to tell them the opposite and then we'll do it. It's very difficult. Because if you don't tell Americans what to do, we're going to rebel. If you do tell Americans what to do, we're going to rebel. If you tell us to stay inside, we're going back, fuck it. No, I'm going to the beach. I'm going to church. I'm going to a grocery store. It depends who's telling you shows. I think that it depends
Starting point is 00:06:06 fractionally. I think that we are so rebellious in our nature. Every movie is about rebellion. Like, we just constantly have to rebel. It's part of our culture, right? The country was started in rebellion. Like, this is just what we do. And I think that, I think that even if you didn't tell us to inside, we would rebel anyway. We'd be like, oh, you just want us to die? You just want everybody to die? Nah, fuck that. We're staying inside. We're not going to work. We're not. We need to constantly rebel, you know? Yeah, I think you got some motherfuckers that would definitely rebel. America definitely doesn't have the discipline. And, you know, we have a lot of freedom here in America and we exercise it often. But I do think it depends on who is telling you what to do.
Starting point is 00:06:49 You got to understand. We're at a war, right? Our podcast, his name perfectly. Yeah. Because there's only two type of people in this world. Right. The brilliant ones and the idiots. Right. The smart ones and the stupid people.
Starting point is 00:07:00 Yeah. And sadly, most times, often than not, smart people, not to suffer, but the stupid ones. And that's what's happening right now. Yeah. Like, so you are going to have some stupid people who are going to rebel just for the sake of motherfucking rebelling, regardless of who the president is, right? And some of it is tribal.
Starting point is 00:07:20 Like, nah, fuck that. I'm not listening to Trump. Fuck that. I wouldn't listen to Obama, right? Right. But some of them are just plain old, good old-fashioned American stupidity. And we have to suffer for those motherfuckers. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:32 So you're saying just like, hey, everybody go inside and, you know, do what they told you to do? What is so hard about that? I don't know, man. You're not going nowhere. Andrew, you don't, you really realize in these moments, you really ain't doing shit outside. No, I know that. But to call me crazy. but there's something about,
Starting point is 00:07:55 there's something about the government just telling you to do something and then you do it without questioning. And like there's two ways of getting, I feel, well, there's multiple ways, but there's multiple ways of getting a group of people, a populace, if you will, to do what you want them to do, right?
Starting point is 00:08:10 There's the Soviet way, which is, hey, if you don't do it, we're going to kill you. And if you tell your friends not to do it, we're going to kill them and kill you. So you constantly live in fear, right? And then there's the American way where they trick. you into thinking you're doing it because you're free, right? So right now what they've done is
Starting point is 00:08:28 they found a way to manipulate us into telling each other to stay inside. It's really funny. Like if you go outside, you'll be shamed by your fellow citizens. They're like, what are you doing outside? Get the fuck inside. You got to stay inside. I'm like, okay, I'll stay inside. Well, you're not six feet away. So now we're bullying each other into doing exactly what the government wants. And I think that that's probably good because we need to make sure we stay alive. But I don't want to give them too much power. I don't want to just do whatever the fucking government says
Starting point is 00:08:58 because that hasn't worked out in the past. Well, listen, I love this. I love this. This is the perfect positively brilliant. What a fucking idiot segment. Because you can go either way on it. You know what I'm saying? But I agree with you.
Starting point is 00:09:10 You don't want to give the government too much power. And I also agree that the government is leaving it up to us as a matter of choice. And I think for the most part, Most Americans are making the right decision, but for the ones that aren't, now's the time to put the hammer down on these motherfuckers, bro. Like, what would you do to people who break the rules? You find the shit out of them.
Starting point is 00:09:31 At a time like this, when motherfuckers, their pockets is already hurting. Now I'm going to find the shit out you. Now I'm going to find you $10,000. And guess what? In Philly, they're giving people fucking warrants. And them shit is like basically I owe you. Really? Yes.
Starting point is 00:09:45 So we're going to arrest you when this shit is better. We're going to arrest you when this shit is over. I like that, too. There's a year from now, you're just cooling out minding your business. Nah, motherfucker. Remember when you didn't want a social distance and you was out there putting people's lives at risk? Fuck that.
Starting point is 00:09:58 We're going to lock you to fuck up. So I agree with you. You don't want to give the government too much power, but we also got to look out for the stupid, bro. How are you putting people's lives at risk if you go outside? Because young people, a lot of people are asymptomatic and they don't show any symptoms, but they could be carrying it. And they pass it off to older people or just people who have preexisting medicine. conditions that causes them to, you know, causes it to be fatal to them.
Starting point is 00:10:25 But if everyone's supposed to be inside, then you don't bump into anybody outside. That's not true. You just said everybody's got to stay inside. But everybody's not staying inside. That's the point. Well, if you choose to not stay inside, then you're making a choice to risk your life. Well, it depends. Like, you can go to the, you can go outside to go to the grocery store. You can go outside to go to the pharmacy, you know, uh, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, think those are essential things. I actually think voting is something they need to add to the
Starting point is 00:10:54 essential list because if they don't, motherfuckers going to really be in trouble come November, okay? Because if you think Donald Trump's not going to use this to his advantage, you got your goddamn rabbit-ass mind. Don't you think that, if we're talking about voting, don't you think that like we're in trouble no matter what? Like, who do you really want? You want Biden or you want Trump? Be honest. You think Biden can negotiate peace with another country? You think Biden is going to be negotiating with China? I can't, I can't sit here and say I would want Trump after what I've seen Trump do the past. Trump babbled this shit. It did a fucking horrible job. But Biden is going to be in China thinking he's negotiating with North Korea. He's going to have no fucking clue what's
Starting point is 00:11:34 going on. Listen, I'm no Joe Biden fan at all, but one fundamental difference between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, I think Joe Biden will surround himself with the right people and Joe Biden will listen. Donald Trump ain't listening to no fucking buddy. You don't think that Biden's just a puppet. that's fine. I'm fine with a puppet as long as the right people, as long as the right people got their hand up your ass, telling you what to say. I am perfectly fine with a puppet. As long as that puppet have the right people's hand up his ass making him talk. So, yeah, I'm perfectly fine with that. Bernie dropped out today, by the way. I know. That's why I'm saying. And I'm bummed about
Starting point is 00:12:07 that. And I won't hit that to be my what a fucking idiot. But, uh, go ahead. Go ahead. But, uh, well, first, just about the Biden thing, it's like, I think Trump did an absolutely horrible job. He continues to do a horrible job with the fucking coronavirus, 100%. And then a poll came out yesterday for political where I think it was like 58% of the people said Barack Obama would do the best job. He would. Donald Trump, and they said Donald Trump, they voted Donald Trump would do a better job than Joe Biden would. I mean, Joe Biden would do a good as job as his handlers would allow him to do. Like, I think Biden is, is a puppet of the establishment. So if you like the Democratic establishment, I think you, when you
Starting point is 00:12:51 decide to vote now, you got to go, what is the Democratic establishment done for me? And if you think throughout the past, the Democratic establishment has done good things for you, then that should be the person you vote for. If you don't think they do good things, then you don't vote for them. That's as simple as that. But don't think Biden is going to have his own self-interest. This guy's talking about peanut butter jelly sandwiches and interviews. Like right now, there's a fucking global pandemic. And the Biden, the Biden, uh, can campaign is putting out videos of him talking about why Figg-Newtons are his favorite treat. Nobody goes to fuck about Jake Nunes.
Starting point is 00:13:23 I told you all this last week, and this can go into what a fucking idiot. Joe Biden sucks. This campaign sucks. I told y'all, when Donald Trump was on TV every day talking to the American people during this coronavirus pandemic, Joe Biden should have been offering counter programming. Do you know Joe Biden did a town hall last night? I wish I saw it. Nobody cared.
Starting point is 00:13:45 That's my whole point. 9 o'clock, CNN, nobody gave him. And we had nothing to do. We would love to see him just bumble his words for a fucking hour straight. That'd be amazing. But nobody knew it. They don't want us to know because they don't want you watching him. I mean, I can't believe that we're in this situation.
Starting point is 00:14:00 I can't. And the reason I can believe that we're in this situation is simply because, like I said, they ran a horrible campaign. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that Joe Biden is not, he's not all there, bro. Brough. Those cognitive, what do you call that shit? The synapsis. The synapses aren't firing.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Whatever. Cognive abilities low. That Nintendo game need to get blown on. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. That shit is on the motherfucking fridge. And I just really think that they drop the ball in such a real way.
Starting point is 00:14:31 And I keep telling people, Donald Trump is not losing. You have to go beat the champ, baby. You're not going to win. You're not going to win on a decision, baby. You got to go out there and knock this motherfucker out. And I don't see the fight. I don't see it. I see Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:14:46 day with his chest out. I see Cuomo out there every day with his chest out to the point to where even today on CNN, literally when Bernie dropped out, they were talking about, Homo's already said he's not about to, you know, make any late push to be president. So what does that tell you? I mean, even if he wanted to, he couldn't, right? He doesn't have enough delegates. Like, that's why Bernie dropped out. He just can't win the right amount of delegates, right? Bernie didn't have to drop out, but I think Bernie dropped out because he didn't see a path to victory, but also I think that they want to, I think he wants to give, you know,
Starting point is 00:15:19 Joe time to not only, first of all, Bernie got to get out the way so Joe can announce his running mate, so Joe can show what his cabinet's going to look like so Bernie can rally his supporters to support Joe Biden. Like, it's going to take time. Do it now.
Starting point is 00:15:33 It's April. You got to November to turn this shit around, but right now the Democrats look fucking terrible. With all due respect to Bernie Sanders, he is a monumental pussy. What a fucking pussy. See, man. Talk to me.
Starting point is 00:15:46 You're going to die soon. This is your last chance. Go out swinging. Why was he playing so fucking polite? If you really care about the people, if you truly want to help the people, you'll do whatever it takes, right? You'll do it ever it takes to get power.
Starting point is 00:16:02 Power's not handed over. Never in history is power handed over. You have to tear it out of people's fucking hands. That's why I say you got to beat Trump in November. Beat Trump in November. Literally beat. You got to go take that shit from him. And in order to take it from him,
Starting point is 00:16:14 you got to take it from the Democratic establishment. The Democratic establishment has been playing games. They yank that shit out of Bernie's hands every single primary, right? Every single primary you see some foul shit go down where they yank it out of his fucking hands. And he's seen this game play before and he refused to play it. Well, then you don't want to win bad enough, bro. I know you want to be a good guy and maybe you want to go to heaven or whatever the fuck it is. But if you truly want to help people, sometimes you've got to be Batman.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Sometimes you got to be Batman. Put on the fucking mask and play ball, dude. and he just doesn't care to help enough. And I really, it drives me crazy. And the Democrats don't even have an ant man. Well, they do have an ant man. His name is Andrew Yang. I always said that I felt like Andrew Yang was Ant-Man.
Starting point is 00:16:56 But he's not front of for president. They don't have no leader, bro. This is how this is how pussy Bernie is right now. Literally everything both the Republicans and the Democrats are doing in this moment is Bernie policy. big government helping out the people giving away money forgiving money forgiving loans figuring out ways to make health care free figuring out ways to forgive college loans it's all of his priorities it's his whole platform and his pussy ass won't just stand up and go
Starting point is 00:17:30 guys this is what I've been saying from the longest you have no problem being a welfare state when going gets rough why can't we do it we are literally being a socialist country in this moment why can't we'd be democratically socialist. He didn't even fucking peep that shit. He didn't even say it. Like it was right there for him. That was his I Told You So moment. That's it. This is, this was his,
Starting point is 00:17:51 this is what I have been trying to do, America. I've been trying to give y'all fucking money to get y'all out of the terrible conditions that y'all are in. He wouldn't even do that. I totally fucking agree. He don't deserve it, bro. He don't deserve it. He just wants to ruffle some shit up, but he's not down to risk his fucking life
Starting point is 00:18:07 to make it happen, man. And it pisses me off because I've been such a big supporter of his ass every time he runs. And I say that he's being taken out, but it's hard to support someone who don't want it. It's hard to back it. You know what I'm saying? It's hard to back a fighter who, once he gets in the ring, he pussies out. And that's what I feel like I'm doing with Bernie, man.
Starting point is 00:18:27 I agree with you 100%. I think the best thing Bernie can do right now is rally his supporters. To do what? To do what? Support Joe Biden. You know, listen, what you said is true. This is it for you, Bernie. But listen, maybe Bernie can at least get in the White House.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Maybe he'll get a position. What position is Biden going to really give him? The establishment that literally broke his back because he's uncorruptible, you think that they're going to give him any power in the White House? The only power he's going to have in the White House is handing Joe Biden his fucking applesauce. That's the only thing that he could possibly do while Biden sits there and has no clue where he is. Wow, this room's an oval. That's all he's going to say.
Starting point is 00:19:06 He's lost. Bernie's fucking lost. They just hand the election to Trump. low-key, I'm kind of thinking they want that. And you know who's been real fucking quiet, bro? This is where you see all the shit. Elizabeth Warren. Say what? Oh, Elizabeth Warren been silent. You know who else's been quiet? AOC, been real quiet lately, right?
Starting point is 00:19:24 Oh, where's AOC? She's not hanging out with the girls no more? What happened to the girl gang? She's putting a little six feet of distance. Social distancing from the girl gang? Nah, she hasn't been quiet. AOC's been out there on the front lines in a lot of ways. I think when I'm actually watching AOC, do, which I thought was interesting.
Starting point is 00:19:43 She's actually been trying to bridge the gap, so to speak. Oh, now she, now she want to be establishment, huh? She got a little taste. I don't think she want to be establishment, but I think that, you know, establishment could use some of those new radical ideas. Brough, all I'm saying is, where was she when Bernie needed it? Call it out. She got real quiet.
Starting point is 00:20:05 No, she's starting for Bernie. She stopped for Bernie in the beginning. But then when it didn't look good, she didn't call out the Democratic establishment, totally fucking over Bernie again. She got real quiet, played her position. No, she definitely did. When? She did.
Starting point is 00:20:16 AOC did. AOC did. Linda Sarsaw did. Sean King did. Like, they all... When did AOC say it? That was early in this shit. That was like right around February.
Starting point is 00:20:25 Whenever, whenever he first won those first few states, she didn't back away because she even came on Breakfast Club. What did she said on breakfast club? She even came on breakfast club. She was making her rounds. She did Breakfast Club. He's a late February, early March. if I'm not mistaken.
Starting point is 00:20:42 And then what was she saying? I don't fucking remember. You know my memory is bad, but I definitely know she was in there showing her support for Bernie Sanders in a real way. But could she criticize the establishment? I guess my prediction is that
Starting point is 00:20:54 she is going to lean in and be part of the establishment Democratic politics, where she started as this radical, and they've kind of pulled her in and they've said, hey, shut your mouth, only talk when we say talk, and then you could have some serious power. And then she was like, yes, Daddy,
Starting point is 00:21:09 I'll do whatever you say. Like all these fucking politicians end up doing. Yeah, I mean, that's what I was about to say. The sad thing about politics is eventually you got to play politics. You know what I'm saying? Eventually, the sad thing about politics is eventually you got to be a motherfucking politician. That's just the way the game works.
Starting point is 00:21:25 Yeah. Now, that's a very slippery slope because if the people embrace you, the people, if the people embrace you, they see. We had some technical difficulties right there. We're back. I don't even remember where we were. We were talking about AOC. We put a button on that, though,
Starting point is 00:21:45 because we were just saying how, you know, if you play politics too long. If you started out with the people and then you jump over to establishment politics, you kind of lose the people. I just think the Democrats in trouble in November. That's all the fuck I know. And it's sad because Donald Trump is giving,
Starting point is 00:21:58 Donald Trump is giving them every layup possible to like look like the good guys. Joe Biden can't even step out and look like a leader for two seconds. Like right now, I promise you, if Joe Biden have been doing counter programming every day to Donald Trump, he would at least look like a leader. Raise some money. Do do something.
Starting point is 00:22:20 He hasn't done none of that. And it just looks bad. It just looks bad on the Democratic Party. And we haven't even seen him go out and just do like a PSA where he goes, support health care workers. That's bare minimum. I don't know if he's done that or not. That seems, you know what's so funny? That's so bare minimum.
Starting point is 00:22:36 I'm almost like maybe he's done that, but I haven't seen it if he has. Well, then promote it. Let's find a certain way. The only video I've seen is him talking about fig newtons and peanut butter jelly sandwiches. And that's what people in an old person home do, right? That's what seen how people talk about, the things that they eat all day. They're feeding him peanut butter and jelly and fig newins. It doesn't scare you that our two president, the Democratic presidential candidate and the president are in the prime age to die of coronavirus.
Starting point is 00:23:03 Son. Yes. If they get that shit, bro. That's why Mike Pence didn't do anything about Corona because he found out to kill his old people. He's like, all right, let me knock this motherfucker out of here so I could be president. Yo, I agree with you.
Starting point is 00:23:23 I think he might be in on the joke. He might be in on a jig. I want to say too, man. You know who else positively brilliant? Motherfucking Howard Stern. The gold of all goats, bro. I didn't say whatever the fuck you want about Howard Stern. You know, you can scream all day that Howard Stern.
Starting point is 00:23:38 Oh, Howard Stern's not relevant because he's on satellite radio. That's bullshit. When Howard wants to show you his dick and show you how big it is, he does it. And when he does it, he shows you that he's better than every fucking body else. So what happened? You're talking about the Tom Brady? Yeah. And listen, I look at Howard Stern
Starting point is 00:23:54 and man, Howard Stern really makes me, I mean, I guess it's different. I don't know if it's different for me or not, to be honest with you, because I do radio every day. And Howard, I don't think he does radio daily anymore. I think he does like maybe two days a week. But when Howard flexes, he flexes. The last interview he had that I,
Starting point is 00:24:11 remember before this was Hillary Clinton. Right? Yeah. And now Tom Brady. He got more out of Tom Brady over the phone. First, he was trying to do a Zoom interview. And, you know, it was fucking up. Wi-Fi, probably terrible.
Starting point is 00:24:25 But then he got on the phone. He got more out of Tom Brady in that interview than people have gotten out of Tom Brady in 20 fucking years. What were the highlights for you? And Howard Stern is currently the number one trending topic on Twitter right now. It's like 67,000 tweets because they're killing ESPN because ESPN took his voice out of the audio that they used for Tom Brady's interview. Why?
Starting point is 00:24:48 I don't fucking know. Probably mad. Yo, you know, imagine being a sports network. By the way, this shows you that all of them traditional ways of doing things, doing shit is out of the window. The tried and true radio place, the podcast space, because I just, I look at out all of the audio bit. Yeah, we are ready to go. We're back. What were we just saying?
Starting point is 00:25:12 Y'all remember? Yeah, we got cut off again. But no, what I was saying was, imagine being ESPN a first take. You don't got no fucking sports going on right now. No basketball, no baseball. You know, you're still talking about football a little bit. And all you're talking about over and over
Starting point is 00:25:29 is the Michael Jordan documentary that you had to push up ESPN. And every day is the topic about Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan, is Michael Jordan better than, is LeBron better than Michael? Who's the new mind? Is this always? a new Michael Jordan topic. Meanwhile, the greatest NFL quarterback
Starting point is 00:25:45 of all time decides to sit down with a radio personality. Fuck your sports networks. Fuck your sports shows. I want to sit down and I want to talk to somebody where I can really just be myself, where I can really just kick it. And Howard Stern,
Starting point is 00:26:01 did what he always does. There's one thing when you get those big guests. It's another to knock it out the park with those big guests. Right now, Howard Stern is the number one trending topic on Twitter. And Tom Brady is trending. And he asked about them dicks. I didn't hear it yet. Apparently he asked about
Starting point is 00:26:16 Gronk's dick size and the other guy's dick size in the locker room. Classic Howard. That's Howard, bro. Howard doesn't need to be boozy. He asked the questions we want to know. I want to know if they got big dicks.
Starting point is 00:26:28 You know what I mean? I want to know what the NFL dicks look like. I wouldn't ask about it if I hadn't heard about it. You got to say again? I wouldn't ask about it if I hadn't heard about it. What you mean? Like if that was something I had heard. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:46 Yeah, I mean, I might be like, yo, what's up with them dicks in the locker room? You know what I'm saying? But I got to hear how he got into the conversation about it. I haven't heard it yet. I'm just excited because it's Howard fucking Stern. And you'll hear people tell you like Howard Stern doesn't have the same relevancy because he's on satellite radio.
Starting point is 00:27:05 Howard Stern is the reason satellite radio is thriving right now. And satellite radio is making a move towards I think video. I've seen a lot more video come out of there. A lot more video on YouTube. Well, I know at one point, I know at least Shade 45 wouldn't allow certain shows
Starting point is 00:27:26 to record video, but a lot of people did it anyway. Like, you know, back in the day when Angela Ye had a morning after she did it anyway, sway definitely does it anyway. Howard, I still see Howard video. So Howard does it when he wants to. Yeah, I don't know, man. I feel like Howard is just such a professional and he's just such a fucking,
Starting point is 00:27:49 like he commands respect from the guest as well, especially an older guest. Like these younger people listening right now, right? They might not know who Howard is. They might not really care about Howard. But someone that is 43 years old like Tom Brady puts Howard on Mount Rushmore. He is on Mount Rushmore. Right. Howard is still the goat.
Starting point is 00:28:11 Yeah, but you have to understand. understand like if you're a young kid, like a young kid today, right, who thinks Lou Lou Zeevert is the best rapper ever probably doesn't understand who Tupac is or who Biggie is, right? Who Rock Kim is. You know what I mean? So it's a generational thing. And I think that like I think how, I think Tom Brady, because of his age, has so much respect for Howard, he probably went on that show knowing I'm going to drop some jewels.
Starting point is 00:28:37 And I probably waited to drop some jewels on this specific show because that's what you. you do on Howard. You know what, man? I think this is a good way to get into the deep dive. I was having a conversation about this yesterday with Taylor and Michaela and Sim and Nila. And I was telling them, you know, you can't lead with Young, right? Okay. And what I mean by that is young is fleeting.
Starting point is 00:29:05 If Young is your foundation, if you're standing on a platform and you're saying, I want to be on, I should be in this position. because I'm young. You know, old people got to get out the way and make room for the young people and this and that. Well, that just means you're going to be around for four years, depending how old you are, eight years,
Starting point is 00:29:23 depending how old you are, because youth is fleeting. So once I don't need that young person anymore, I'm just going to go grab me another young person. So what you should really be is experienced, skilled, interesting, unique, because those things stand the test of time. Howard Stern has evolved as an interview.
Starting point is 00:29:47 He's always been interesting and entertaining. But over the years, he's evolved to become one of the best interviewers that our generation has ever seen, right? A lot of it has to do with therapy. He really knows how to get inside people's minds. But he can still give you classic Howard and talk about them dicks.
Starting point is 00:30:03 So it's still entertaining. I was just simply saying you can't lead with young. Yeah, because if you just have a young, If you look at the companies that, that have tried to, like, leave with Young, they're flopping right now. Like, I don't even know if MTV makes shows anymore. I don't know. I cannot tell you if they make shows or if they don't make shows. I truly don't know.
Starting point is 00:30:28 I remember they used to. Bro, I haven't heard the name MTV in so goddamn long. Because what's on? It's like, is it TRL? Like, what is literally happening? Yeah. And I mean, that's the thing, right? The reason is because they cater to a certain demo that doesn't give a fuck.
Starting point is 00:30:48 Who does? And what I mean, MTV. No, they cater to a demo that doesn't know anything. That's what they cater to. But they don't know anything. But they also don't, they also don't give a fuck to know. No, I'm not even going to say that. I'm not going to say they don't give a fuck to know.
Starting point is 00:31:01 They are interested in certain things. They're just not interested in that. This is the problem. You got a bunch of executives sitting in a room that's all 50 plus years old trying to say what does a 15 year old like? What does a 16 year old like? 15 years or 16 years, minds change every single day.
Starting point is 00:31:19 Every day they're on to something new. You're going to bust your fucking ass trying to keep up with them. Only thing you should focus on is, is it interesting? Is it unique? Can I learn from it? Is it entertaining? Those four things right there stand to test the time, bro.
Starting point is 00:31:35 Yeah. And guess what? If you're a young person who has all, four of those things as you grow and as you evolve, you will continue to grow and evolve and your information will change but those four core things
Starting point is 00:31:48 will never change. Only thing will change is your age. I just want to know what happens when you're not the new, young, hot thing anymore. That you can't stand on youth. I used to I was that guy back in the day. I put out a mixtape me and my dude DJ Frosty called disrespect your elders. Right.
Starting point is 00:32:04 Because I was dissing all the older folks at the goddamn radio stage. And then you realize like, man, you got a birthday too. You know what I'm saying? If you're lucky. So what happens when you're not that new young thing no more? Are you, are you afraid of any young comedians if they're not funny? If a comedian is challenging you shows, and they're like, I'll bust your ass and I'm younger than you. Yeah. You think that's a good weapon to bring the war? No. No, because I don't see any young comedians with careers, really. Break it down.
Starting point is 00:32:42 I mean, I don't know any, a single young comedian that has a career I would trade right now. Yeah, yeah, I feel what you're saying. Like, name any successful young comedian. The only one I could probably think of is Pete and I would never trade my life for his. Career, though. Yeah, even that. Hell no. Okay.
Starting point is 00:33:03 I mean, even when he was on your podcast, he seems miserable in his career. No, I don't think he's miserable in his career. I think that's actually the only thing that makes him happy. Going on SNL? Oh, no, not SNL. That's what I'm talking about. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get what you're saying. But that's because of the way, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:20 I get what you saying. No, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I get what, you know what I'm saying. So it's like, the people I always looked up to, people whose careers I respect have always been older. Like, comedy is an old man's game. That's what people don't realize, like, nobody wants to hear what some young kid has to say this funny. No one does they hear some young kid pontificate about the world, right? It depends what his worldview is. Like I said, if he's unique,
Starting point is 00:33:44 if he has a unique POV that we've never heard before. Name it, bro. Chappelle been interesting, but once he hit 40, people are like, oh shit, he's the goat. Yeah, but people found him funny back then. They found him funny, but that's different than being the goats.
Starting point is 00:34:00 If you look at the goats of comedy, they've always been older. Well, ghosts come with time, though. I mean, I think we're agreeing. You know what I'm saying? So it's like, like, the, One person I can remember having incredible success at a young age and still has a lot of respect is Eddie Murphy. He's the only one. And that's a testament to how great Eddie was, bro.
Starting point is 00:34:19 That goes back to what I'm saying. You're absolutely right. You have to be unique. You got to be smart. You got to be skilled. You got to have an interesting POV. All of those things have to come into play. And that happens. You see that early on. You can look at a young kid and be like, man, this guy got a real unique story. And as you grow, those things don't change. Like, you're still going to be unique. You're still going to have an interesting POV. You're still going to be funny. You're still going to be smart.
Starting point is 00:34:45 You just get more and more and more experience. And that's when you, you know, end up in goat territory. And I was even telling them yesterday, like, man, it's so weird to me when I hear somebody say, old people got to move out of the way and give young people a chance. That's pussy to me. Especially in 2020, when you have. all the tools and resources that I didn't have when I was coming up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:12 I look at the best personalities that I've grown to love over the past, you know, five years. It's the Kid Fury and Cristles. It's the Deas and Marrows. It's the tax stones. It's the Gia Peppers. It's the Scotty beams. Like all of these people, for the most part, I think Scott. Scottie started in radio, but the rest of them created their own.
Starting point is 00:35:37 platforms to be seen and to be heard. 85 South show. You know what I'm saying? Carlos Miller, Chico B, DCM, Fly. They all created their own platforms. They didn't wait for no fucking body. You know what I'm saying? And most of them got platforms that are bigger
Starting point is 00:35:53 than some radio shows. So it's like, don't sit around and wait for somebody to give you something. Because guess what? That's never going to fucking happen, Joe Biden. You got to go fucking take that shit. So all you young people with that mind, mindset, that's an old fucking played out mindset.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Build your own and take it. I will say one thing where we should be ageist. There is one game in which you can judge someone for their age and they shouldn't be here because of their age. And that is politics. Old people should not be making decisions about the world that they won't be here for, right? I don't need Donald Trump or Joe Biden making decisions about the environment when they won't be here for the effects of their decisions.
Starting point is 00:36:34 I don't need them making decisions about the end. infrastructure of a country when you're not going to be here for your decisions. Like let somebody who's 40 decide what we're going to do about the polar ice caps or about the forests or about, you know, using, you know, recycling goods or whatever. Let a motherfucker that got to live through the decision, make the decision. I think you need old men for counsel, young men for war. Because I don't know. Why do you gain counsel from someone who's not going to be here for the decision that he makes?
Starting point is 00:37:04 Because they've been here already. So Joe Biden is probably old enough to, Joe Biden's probably old enough to remember all them other pandemics that happened. He might have been around when the first fucking flu hit America. You know what I mean? When that first fucking bout of influenza hit America, he might have been around for this. I'm sure he was.
Starting point is 00:37:21 But here's the thing. I'm okay. I'm okay with an old person making a decision that's a now decision because they got all this wisdom, right? Then like the pandemic is a now decision. How do we handle this now? Right? Joe Biden was going to be like, look, back in the day,
Starting point is 00:37:34 during the bubonic plague, what we did was this, and then that will help us, right? But I don't care what Joe Biden has to say about the environment because he's not going to live for that decision to come to fruition. I don't agree with that. Because you can still care about what happens now because he got grandkids. He got children that's going to still be here long after he's going. Bro, his son is out there smoking crack.
Starting point is 00:37:55 He don't care about his kids, okay? I mean, you always going to have one fuck-up. Are you? It's Joe's second family. Oh, he had another family? Yeah, didn't Chris, correct me if I'm wrong. Didn't Joe Biden's family? We're not going to hear Chris.
Starting point is 00:38:09 His original family died or something? Oh, Jesus. I don't know. This is brilliant. If you don't got time to fact check shit. I just know, I just know that this is not his first go around at this. All I'm simply saying is I don't knock anybody for their experience. I think that everybody's experience matters.
Starting point is 00:38:27 I think young people's experience matters. I think old people's experience matters. All I'm simply saying is you just can't stand on the foundation of young. It's like a president can't stand on the foundation of old This because you've been around Don't mean that you know any goddamn thing Yeah because you've been around Don't mean that you're a fucking OG
Starting point is 00:38:42 And sometimes, yeah, that's right You might not be an OG And sometimes the shit that you live through Because your age is actually tainting your worldview You know, like you ask a bunch of If you ask a bunch of people, right? If you're looking at them I'm gonna get a little close here
Starting point is 00:38:57 Because I gotta, I gotta move some shit But if you ask a bunch of people right And you're like Ha, right up on you We're about kissing right there. If you ask a bunch of people and you're like, yo, old, old, old people, you're like, yo, should black people and white people go to school together? They're going to be, a few of them are going to be like, fuck no, we all that.
Starting point is 00:39:15 Why would they go to school together, right? It's like, you don't want to get all of your advice from old people because sometimes their wisdom is dated. Absolutely. You know, like, you're not going to go to your great grandma and be like, hey, what do you think is the best thing to watch movies on? And she should be like, well, in your car, you go to the drive-thru. That's not going to be how you watch movies. As Taylor, what I told her yesterday. I said, my greatest skill is knowing that I don't know everything
Starting point is 00:39:40 and staying fluid. Yeah. Always being willing to learn. Regardless of what my experiences have been, because that's what it's really about to me. It's about experience, right? You can be 25 and have had more experiences than a 40-year-old. But, you know, it's about experience.
Starting point is 00:39:57 And it's about that wisdom that comes with age, but you've got to remain fluid up here. Yeah. You can't be stuck in your ways. You always got to be willing to learn. Yeah. And she called that, Taylor said, that was, that's called having a young mind. And I said, no, it's not.
Starting point is 00:40:11 It's called having a fluid mind. It's called being open to change, being, being willing to learn. You could be a hard-headed old motherfucker or a young, a young hard-headed, old motherfucker. Yeah. You know what I mean? If you're hard-headed and nothing can get through here, it don't matter. You're not going to ever be able to grow or be able to evolve or be able to help,
Starting point is 00:40:29 be able to help anybody else grow up. Yeah, that's the tricky thing about life. It's like knowing what to be hardheaded about and knowing what to be fluid about. Because sometimes if you're fluid about absolutely everything, you can get caught up in the hype. And sometimes you need to be disciplined and you need to have, you know, the foundation of your beliefs set in stone so it doesn't get rattled. You know? I trust my gut. I trust my instincts.
Starting point is 00:40:53 I trust my intuition. You know, the universe. God has shown me that he brings the right people in my life at the right time to tell me the right things and to guide me the right way. and direct me the right way, but I ultimately know the decision is mine, the choice is mine. I can simply say I trust myself. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:41:10 When it's something that I don't want to do, I'm not chalking it up to just being stubborn. I'm just simply, I simply don't want to do it. If I'm not feeling it, I'm not feeling it. You know what I mean? And that's something I learned with experience and age, right? Because when you're young, you just, you just want to go.
Starting point is 00:41:28 You just want to be involved with everything. And you just move wherever to fucking, wind blows until you realize no motherfucker you know what I'm saying it's not about how much you do it's about doing the right thing yeah that's it you can do 10 different things and it could be a 10
Starting point is 00:41:43 10 10 10 shit that don't lead you nowhere yeah but you do that one thing that your heart is really into you focus on that and shit opens up for you all right we're going to take a break for a second pay some bills guys girls both of you get your dicks hard okay you're in quarantine

You're chewing it up, getting in your system, and then getting you inside your girl. give your girl the night of her life. She deserves it during this quarantine.

The announcements are a very important part of what we do in church. Yo, big news. We are rescheduling my special. Everybody that bought tickets for the shows at the Orphium in L.A.

Starting point is 00:43:45 have to cancel it, but you know, you got to do these certain things. And same goes with a lot of these other gigs. So we're basically rescheduling dates right now, but we're holding on before we announce them because we don't want to say, yeah, we're all going to be back in June and then everything still shut down in June.

I promise you, they will still be good. So, and if you need anything, I'm sure the venue will take care of you if you ever need to get a ticket exchange, et cetera. So those are my church announcements.
Starting point is 00:44:23 And also make sure you check out Flagrant too, man. I'm doing daily podcasts over there. So if you need some distraction, need some fun. We're doing a new podcast every day. Man, I did an interview with Doc Ansel from the Tiger King. So we had him on the podcast. That was really cool. I also did an interview with El Chapo's lawyer, and he told me how money laundering works
Starting point is 00:44:42 and why he can defend crazy people like El Chapo. And so we just got some cool interviews going up there over at Flagon 2. So check out either the YouTube or the everywhere podcast are streamed, man. Dope. Taylor, did I have any trash announcements? I saw you had something down for me. It's your National Day in Columbus Oh shit, really? Yes, well, we're taping this on April 8th.
Starting point is 00:45:07 This comes out on April 9th. Yesterday was Charlemagne de God Day in Columbia, South Carolina. Stephen Benjamin, the mayor of Columbia, South Carolina. He gave me that day back in 2017. And I've always wanted to do something on that day because I always think it's real cool how Trade Day, Trade Day, Trade the Truth. He does Tray Day in Houston.
Starting point is 00:45:26 I think I even, Angie Lee, she has a day and she does stuff in Brooklyn. And I think that's so dope. And so what I wanted to do was I had something planned for April the 8th and something that I've been working on for a while. Sluke to Michelle Austin of Hot 109 to Columbia, South Carolina, promotion is directed down there. We was working on that. But with my home girl, Kim Fields.
Starting point is 00:45:48 You know what I mean? Kim, Kim was helping me with that as well. And, yeah, Corona put a stop to all of that shit, baby. So hopefully I'll get to do it again later this year if we're allowed to congregate in large crowds together. If not, April 8, 2021, inshallah, God willing, yes, I will be doing something for Sholomey Naguad Day in Columbia, South Carolina. Because I really appreciate Columbia. I got a lot of love for Columbia, man. I really learned the game of radio in a different way in Columbia, South Carolina.
Starting point is 00:46:23 I would say that I sharpened all my interview skills in Columbia, South Carolina in a real way. Well, congrats, man. That's fucking dope, dude. Yeah, salute to everybody in Columbia. Right, back to the show. Hey, can we deep dive on what businesses aren't going to make it out of this pandemic? I would love to.
Starting point is 00:46:44 Let's go. Have you given any thoughts to that? Because I've been really sitting here thinking about it and I was doing an episode of Flagrant. and I don't think that the movies in theaters makes it out of the pandemic. I think movie theater is close. Yeah, you know, AMC is already saying that they don't think that they're going to recover from this. And it's interesting because, first of all, it's interesting that all of these multimillion-dollar corporations are living paycheck to paycheck, like the average fucking American. That's insane to me.
Starting point is 00:47:13 But also, this guy came to me like six years ago with this idea. and his idea was basically, you know, a screaming service for the movie theaters. Now, the problem with that is you can't get no production companies and shit to agree with that because, like, why would they support your idea when they could just do something like that themselves? And it basically was like a Netflix for movies. And, you know, the past few weeks, we've been home. I watched Onward at home. I watched Invisible Man at home.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Invisible Man suck, by the way. I watched The Invisible Man here at home. And I liked that. When they was talking about Black Widow coming out on Disney Plus, I was like, hell the fuck, yeah. you know what I'm saying, make it a one-time buy. So if you want to buy it as a consumer, you got to continuously purchase it every time you want to watch it. I would sit here on my fucking couch and pay that $20 to watch Black Widow on Disney Plus.
Starting point is 00:48:00 The problem with that is, and it makes so much sense, Marvel can't limit it to just Disney Plus. Because Marvel does, I think they got like, I don't know how much subscribers Disney Plus has. But it's a big difference between putting it out on the screaming service to where you have a limited amount of people that subscribe to Disney Plus. as opposed to opening it, you know, mass market worldwide. But I agree with you.
Starting point is 00:48:21 I just, I don't see how, I don't see how movie theater is making it out of this, bro. If I was AMC, that's what I would do. I would start a screaming service. Oh, 100%. It's, it's an interesting thing about the virus because what it does is it exposes preexisting conditions both physically and economically, right? Like, if you physically are ill before you get coronavirus, you got lung disorder, have lung cancer or something like that, you're a smoker.
Starting point is 00:48:49 Corona can really fuck you up and it can kill you, even if you're not old, right? But it does the same thing to businesses economically. Like, the movie business was already trending down, movie business in terms of going out to the theater, right? They were selling less tickets and wasn't as popular. And the pandemic has really kind of like seized it. And it made us all realize, oh, shit, like, why do I want to get dressed up to go see a movie I might not even like?
Starting point is 00:49:11 I'd rather stay in my sweatpants, watch my 4K HD television with Crystal clear audio that I have on my bow speakers that I purchased on my comfy couch with my girl, maybe my kids. I have a delicious meal, not some buttery bullshit popcorn and some like a crunch bar that I'll buy for
Starting point is 00:49:30 50 bucks at the cash at the cashier or whatever it is. Well, you're right, but let me tell you something Mr. Privilege. Yeah. I had to think about this too. Yeah. Everybody don't got nice TVs, bro. Son. Everybody don't got that surround of the crib, bro. I hear this shit.
Starting point is 00:49:44 Everybody don't got nice TVs. And then I people punching themselves and punching each other in the face every Black Friday for a fucking flat screen, okay? So don't give me this shit that poor people don't got TVs, okay? Black Friday gives poor people everything they goddamn need to watch the movies that they want to watch. Simple is that. Oh, you're right. Okay? If I see another 300-pound Puerto Rican woman punch a white lady in the face to get a Samsung and then you want to tell me that they don't got no fucking flat screens, that girl got a flat face. You're right. Where to fuck all you fighters on Black Friday. Don't tell me you don't got no nice TV. Go get your TV, bro. Go get it.
Starting point is 00:50:19 Absolutely right. I was with you. You're absolutely right. I do like the movie going in experience. I'm not going to lie. It's a good date night. You know what I'm saying? I love, I'm going to be honest with you. It comforts me. Go on that. It just does. Like, you know, when I would, sometimes like when you, you know, you're dealing with anxiety and, you know, you may have like, you know, you're bouts of depression. The movie theater makes me happy. And you know what? I love even more than an AMC. What? I love a movie. I love a small movie. theater, a small, I don't know what's the word for it. Family-owned movie theater in a small town.
Starting point is 00:50:53 So this is what I was thinking. Huh? So this is what I was thinking about that. I don't know if movie theaters go away entirely, but I think what you'll have is like events. So let's say Marvel comes out with a new movie, another Avengers, not like they are going to, but who knows, whatever, another Avengers, right? Maybe, you know how like some bars would put on the fight on pay-per-view and everybody would
Starting point is 00:51:15 to the bar to watch the fight. Yeah. So maybe what happens is small independent places, maybe it's, excuse me, a theater, maybe it's a comedy club, maybe it's a local restaurant, whatever. They put on their own versions of the movie that they'll buy from the movie company.
Starting point is 00:51:31 And then you have people have a nice dinner, they have a good meal. It's not bullshit. You're not sitting in a bunch of seats that got bedbugs, but you're actually having that date night experience and going to see the movie. Like, to be honest,
Starting point is 00:51:41 maybe drive-through movies actually have a resurgence. That could be kind of, dope. You're in your car, nice night. I like the movie with the reclining chair. I like the movies with the reclining chair. Like you just kick back. Yeah. I'm saying? Like those, those are perfect when you take your kids to see them kids movies. You know what I mean? You know the type of sleep
Starting point is 00:51:57 I got in Jumanji? Do you know the fucking sleep? The type of sleep I got during little? Oh my God, man. Some of the best fucking sleep ever during them kids movies. You slept through Kevin Hart being scared again? I definitely slept through Jumanji. I woke up at one point during Jumanji and was like, oh shit, is that Aquafina?
Starting point is 00:52:21 I went right back to sleep. Wait, was Aquafina in it? Yes, she's in the new Jamanji. Oh, really? Yes, man. Aquafina's in the fucking new Jamban. She's been killing it, bro. I'm gonna be on.
Starting point is 00:52:32 I think you're right about movie theaters. What else? What else is struggling now that you don't think it's going to make it out of this, man? I hate to say it. I think scripted television. Scripted television, but it's killing it right now. People are obsessed with these scripted shows.
Starting point is 00:52:46 What's your point on that? You got to go tape some of these shows. I'll say eventually when we're back in. Oh, you mean done? I think, I don't know, man. I haven't thought about it. I actually was thinking about the businesses that were going to thrive.
Starting point is 00:52:59 Like I was saying, like the audio business is going to thrive, radio podcast, book business is going to thrive. You know, whether there's a hard couple books, whether it's audible books, they're going to thrive. Animation is definitely going to thrive. Animation is literally the only thing that you can really get moving right now. You had a cartoon in the works.
Starting point is 00:53:17 I guarantee you they're sending those people over to those studios to do those voiceovers. It's just you and an engineer. That's it. In and out, you can be by yourself. That shit is definitely going to get moving. What about retail? I wonder if retail, the way we know retail,
Starting point is 00:53:31 like all these stores were already falling apart, right? Like Barneys went out of business. All these other stories are already going, they're going bankrupt. The pandemic hits, right? And now people can't go out. to these stores and buy. And I think during a pandemic, you start to realize how you really purchase clothing.
Starting point is 00:53:50 Like the days where we would just go into a, what was the store back in a Jimmy Jazz or some shit in the city, you know, like you just walk into a store that has a little bit of everything. You buy sneakers, jeans, a fucking hoodie or something like that. I think those days are done. I think what we do is we're really niche in the way we dress where we're like, oh, boom, I like my jeans from Subi, but I like a hoodie from over here. I like my sneakers from over there.
Starting point is 00:54:14 And I think that we start purchasing things online that exact way. So instead of going to a urban outfitters to get everything, we'll go online to the specific stores we want buy. And if we don't like, just return. I want you build your girlfriend. Say again? I don't like build your girlfriend. A year.
Starting point is 00:54:33 And you haven't realized that yet? Son, here's the thing. Here's a thing. How women shop and how men shop are different. It's like. Oh, you mean men are going to start shopping? like women, basically. Okay, the idea. Because here's the thing, men, we don't return things, right?
Starting point is 00:54:46 Like, if I buy a pair of jeans and it don't fit, I have a pair of jeans that don't fit. That's just how it works, right? Taylor just text me and said, women need to try clothes on. Who said that? Taylor. Taylor said, women need to try clothes on. Look, we need to try clothes on too. We just won't return them if they don't fit.
Starting point is 00:55:03 And everybody's weight doesn't fluctuate like yours, Taylor. Oh, shit. Oh, shit. Oh, shit. Taylor. Taylor taking shots. Taylor. Go, go, go, go.
Starting point is 00:55:18 I brought up another thing that I wanted to bring up as well. But I also just said Taylor, I was about to say Taylor's before on Monday. After on Thursday. But then before again on that next Wednesday. I hate that. Taylor, are you before or after right now? Shut the fuck up.
Starting point is 00:55:34 I am the thing. Yeah, all right. All right. Let's post a picture. You know there's been a lot, a lot less selfies, huh? A lot of less thirst traps out there, huh? It's nowhere you just up at. Say what?
Starting point is 00:55:46 I can't get... No, because you all don't want to show off your apartments. Y'all take all those pictures and the guy that's taking you out to apartment. I have no. I have a very nice apartment. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:55:58 Anyway, back to the clothing thing. So I think men will start shopping more like women. And also another thing that I think changes completely is delivery. What do you mean? So, like... You know how now when you go out to a restaurant, well, not now, but pre-pendemic, you go out to a restaurant, right? You ask for a reservation at 8 o'clock, right? Yes.
Starting point is 00:56:21 And the restaurant tells you, okay, we got a, we have 815 or we have 830 or we have whatever, right? But when you call for delivery, you just get your food whenever they can send it to you. There's no time. I think popular restaurants, when we get back to business, I think a lot of restaurants will fail because they can't stay open. but I think the ones that do stay open will be ram-packed because that will be what exists, right? And most people won't have more money to invest in a new restaurant anyway. So we won't have a lot of new restaurants. And the ones that are there are going to be the really good ones.
Starting point is 00:56:52 And I think what happens is delivery becomes the exact same as dining in in that you request a time for your delivery. And they have slotted times for your delivery. Like, we have an 830 delivery available. We have an 815 delivery available. But we don't have 7.30 when you want to get your meal. And I think people start eating at home at a given time based on the restaurants availability. Smart.
Starting point is 00:57:17 Smart. Could work, right? What were you saying, Al? I'll go. Oh, that's another thing. So Al thinks restaurants will suffer because people are learning how to cook and they're learning how, I don't want to say easy, but how effectively they can make a delicious meal.
Starting point is 00:57:36 I think y'all discrediting one thing when it comes to that, though. A lot of times, man, you know, even with the movie theater, even with the restaurant. It's not about necessarily the movie or the food. It's just the experience. Going out. Motherfuckers just like to go out, bro. So here's the thing about going out, right? The movie and why movie is a little bit different and I think food is a little different. You're out, but you're not connecting with people. And I think now when people go out, they want to connect. Like, I think fucking concerts, dude, like the first time you could go out to a concert and sing with thousands of people, your favorite song at the same time, that's going to be an unreal experience for people. It's
Starting point is 00:58:11 going to feel like 4th of July. Fireworks. You ain't getting that shit for another year and a half. I don't know, man. I'm curious about it. Bill Gates said it the best, and I agree with him. Bill Gates said until there is... Fuck Bill Gates. Nope. Bill Gates said until there's an act of...
Starting point is 00:58:25 He's right. He said until there's a vaccine. He's right. You know where he's testing that vaccine, bro? That's not true. You know where he's testing up? Ask India. Go to Robert. I thought you about to say Africa. Go to RFK Jr.'s Instagram right now.
Starting point is 00:58:40 See his last post. Bro, they're testing that shit right there in Rikers. Yo, motherfuckers that's doing... Who's in Rikers? I mean... So African Americans. People doing life. By the way, if you were doing life in prison...
Starting point is 00:58:54 You don't do life in Rikers, bro. I don't fucking... Rikers is a jail. But if you listen, if you were doing life in prison... Yeah. They came to you and they was like, look, you want to test some vaccines out on you. You're a comic book guy like myself?
Starting point is 00:59:07 You try it. You might turn into Luke Cage. Is that what happened to Luke Cage? Yes. They tried to vaccinate him? I don't know if it was vaccination, but it was some type of experiment they was doing on him while he was in prison.
Starting point is 00:59:18 He became Luke fucking Cage. That might be a way to do it, except the vaccine. Yo, you don't think they're trying to some slick shit with these vaccines, bro? Man, every goddamn Hotep, every black Israelite, Andre 3,000, they all been telling us this forever. This is nothing new.
Starting point is 00:59:33 Wait, what are they saying? They've been telling us not the fuck with the vaccine. Y'all give anti-vaccinators hell. Anti-vaccinators been telling y'all like, don't take these vaccines. No, listen, I'm pro-vaccine. I think vaccine is what allowed, you know, people to fucking live decent lives and not worry about, like, stubbing their toe on something metal and then just dying a few days later
Starting point is 00:59:51 from Tetanus, right? That being said, it is a little interesting that you have someone like Bill Gates, who's, like, sneakily almost predicted this a few years back to all of a sudden be ready to go with these vaccines. And it's just like, he's not ready to go with the vaccines. He's just funding the research for the vaccines. You got to think about a guy like Bill Gates. He's a billionaire.
Starting point is 01:00:14 But he has access to some of the most brilliant minds in the world. He has conversations with people. Like Bill Gates didn't say nothing that George W. Bush didn't say. George W. Bush was like, yes, George W. Bush said, if we don't get ahead, I don't know, I don't want to miss quote him, but he basically talked about how we have to have a global pandemic team and take a global pandemic team in place because eventually there will be a global pandemic in front.
Starting point is 01:00:39 fucking America. Like Joe Rogan been talking about shit like this. Yeah, it is an interesting thing. This isn't like new information for anybody. It is an interesting thing because it's the, let's say, hypothetically speaking, if you want to get little conspiratorial, it is the perfect way to get people to do what you want them to do because now it's not just about you. It's about the people you could affect. They're basically like, let's say some bad guys out there, some bad actors out there are like, all right, we want to put a chip in everybody's arm so we can control what they do. or we want to put a vaccine inside everybody's body so we can kind of like manipulate their bodies
Starting point is 01:01:11 in some way, shape, or form, et cetera. You can't just tell them to do it because we're too rebellious, right? But you can say, hey, you got to do this to protect your grandma. You got to do this so you could kill your granddad. You got to do this so you could kill old people. Now it's not about you.
Starting point is 01:01:26 It's actually selfish if you don't do it. It's kind of genius manipulation technique. Yeah, but millions of people get vaccination shots every year. They do the flu shot every fucking year. I don't do it either, but millions of people do. Like, they often should do it. Because I grew up listening in the HOTEPs. Because I grew up listening to motherfucking Holteps, man.
Starting point is 01:01:54 And, you know, it used to be this sign in the barbershop. I used to get my head cut in Mounts Corner. I think it was professional barbershop. They had a sign, and it was this dude, this big-ass needle. And it said, vaccines or viruses. What are they injecting us? with. Yeah. They did always stuck with me.
Starting point is 01:02:09 They do put a little of the virus in so you could get, you know, they just put the tip in. That shit works. That shit works. Hey, tip in works, has it not worked? Yeah. It definitely works. You put the tip in, the girl builds up the antibodies for your dick and then you start fucking.
Starting point is 01:02:22 Yeah. And then you even look at your kids. Your kids get shot early on. Like, I don't know why people are acting like, you know, the next logical step after coronavirus is to find a vaccine for it. They literally, that's what it literally happened to, Every single fucking flu. You need a vaccine.
Starting point is 01:02:40 It's just how they enforce it is going to be interesting to me. I mean, look, I perform live for a living. I had to push my special back. My special is going to be in November 13th and 14th, I believe. So we change new dates. Anybody, if you want, those tickets you have are still available for those dates. But I had to push my special back. And I think that the people will feel the most confident going back out to live events if a vaccine exists.
Starting point is 01:03:03 So I'm pro vaccine. I want that vaccine immediately. I was talking to my guy Aaron Magruder yesterday, man. He brought up a good point. He was talking about just that. He was like, you know, not only have people not going to feel comfortable gathering together until they get a vaccine. He was like, yo, the people that are in the most danger when things open back up, it's people like us. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:25 Why? If you haven't had the virus yet. Oh, yeah. If you've never been exposed to the virus, you know what I'm saying? You haven't built up the antibodies. So when we go back out into the world unless we've had it and didn't know it, like we're going to be super exposed to catch you.
Starting point is 01:03:41 You know, that's the fucked up thing about like testing the vaccine. Like you hear like, they're testing the vaccine in Africa and like part of you is like, man, that's fucked up. You can't do that. But then there's also part of you like, well, they got to test it somewhere. You know, like, where you're going to test it? Go to Russia with it. Go somewhere.
Starting point is 01:03:59 Don't test it here. Florida. Go to Florida. They don't care already. Go to fucking... Where's Joe Exotic from? Hey. Oh, uh, Omaha.
Starting point is 01:04:10 Nebraska. Oh, go to Omaha. Son, we got to do it somewhere. Who wants to get tested, bro? You know what? Maybe we should make people earn that $1,200 the government's going to give them. You want that $1,200? Take this test.
Starting point is 01:04:22 Just start giving out comic books in jail, bro. Give them Wolverine. Give him Captain America. Give them Luke Cage. Give them all of these people who got their powers because of government experiments, yo. Yeah. That's all.
Starting point is 01:04:33 And these people that are doing light. in prison. I'm talking about these guys that are doing 80 years, 100 years, and there's no hope of them getting out. You ain't up for parole until 2075 and you're already 40. In the words of President Donald J. Trump, what do you got to lose? There we go. There we go. Dude, what if that's a, hey, bro, that's actually a great thing. Why don't we take all the people that have extremely long sentences and say, hey, here's his vaccine we're trying out. If you live, you get to get out of jail. Ooh.
Starting point is 01:05:08 But that's a good roll of the dice. That's a good roll of the fucking dice. You either die in jail or you get out now. We're not talking about, you know, murders and rapists and that kind of shit. We're talking about you're like a drug dealer. You got some crazy, you know, you stole shit. Like one of those you get long sentences
Starting point is 01:05:25 for doing something that's not extremely violent. Okay? I wonder the percentage of people on death row who know they call. committed a crime, have made peace with the crime that they committed, and they know that one day they're going to die. Those are the people that probably get tested, get the vaccine. Get the vaccine. There you go. See if it works. If not. You already do it like me, like you actually die a hero, bro. You die a hero.
Starting point is 01:05:51 A lot of states do lethal injection. So if you give them the option, like, look, we're going to test this on you. If it works and you live, you're free. It doesn't. You die. You're already on death row. This is a phenomenal deal. I don't know anybody that wouldn't take this deal. 100%. If you think you're innocent, you wouldn't take it. Yeah, but you're not getting out anyway. Yeah, you're not getting out anyway.
Starting point is 01:06:16 I don't know, man. But what we talk? How do we get on Bill Gates? Oh, yeah, yeah, about the vaccine thing. Yeah. You don't like, you don't like Bill Gates? I don't trust it, bro. Something's going on.
Starting point is 01:06:27 I always never trusted him. I think that we only feel that way. You know what? Let's pay some bills and come back with things that you don't care. things you won't care about next week. And then we can talk about Bill. All right. But we're going to have to pay a bunch of bills.
Starting point is 01:06:38 So we might as well just do it at the end. You sure? Yeah, we got three. All right. Well, I was going to do Bluetooth here, so we'll just come back. All right. Things you won't care about next week. Bill Gates.
Starting point is 01:06:49 I saw Bill Gates on Trevor Noah this week. I think that Bill Gates is one of these people that get too much flack just because he's a fucking billionaire. And it's not his fault that he literally invented something that changed the world. Like we have to stop. What do you invent, you know? Microsoft.
Starting point is 01:07:04 What is that? I don't fucking know. That's the thing with Bill Gates. I think he's tight. I think on some level he's tight that he will be forgotten because nobody knows what he invented. Like Steve Jobs. We don't know what Microsoft is.
Starting point is 01:07:19 What is Microsoft? Isn't it the fucking Wi-Fi program? Isn't it a computer program? Son, we don't know. Like, could you go buy some Microsoft? I'm sure you can. Nobody listening right now. or the majority of people listen right now
Starting point is 01:07:33 got no fucking clue what Microsoft is. Yeah, but we see that shit every time we turn on our computers. You see it, but you don't know what it does. What is Microsoft? Think about it. What does it do?
Starting point is 01:07:45 It's software. Microsoft. Microsoft is my dick when I get out the pool. Yes, exactly. It's the operating system for PC computers. Did you know that? Yes. Okay, so here's a thing.
Starting point is 01:07:58 I didn't know what to call it. You thought it was Wi-Fi. You didn't know that. Stop it. I did. Same difference. It makes your computer work. It's the same fucking temper.
Starting point is 01:08:05 My motherfucker invented that shit before the internet came out and he said it was Wi-Fi. You see that shit no matter what kind of computer you got when you open up that shit, you see Microsoft, man. The world don't move without Bill Gates, baby. See, that's the bullshit. We don't know if it moves or we don't know if it doesn't move. I think that Bill Gates wants to be known for something and on some level he's got to accept that there is nothing
Starting point is 01:08:27 that we will remember him for in the... Microsoft, Andrew. We don't know what that is. Yes, we do. What Steve Jobs makes, say it. Say it with your fucking chess. Apple products. Hold on.
Starting point is 01:08:39 If I'm not mistake, hold on. Let me see. Chris is texting me. Oh, yeah. Chris says the company that makes Word doc too. Thanks, Chris. Man, bro. Stop hating.
Starting point is 01:08:50 I think you're mad because you kind of look like him. Without glasses, bro. Stop hating on Bill Gates, man. I'm not always. I'm just skeptical, bro. I'm skeptical. Now, here's a thing. Why are we so skeptical?
Starting point is 01:09:05 a billionaire. Because we should. It's a weird thing to be. It's a weird thing to have that much money, bro. It's weird. You can get there. Say what? You can get there, Shultz. I don't want to. I have no care to. If I wanted to, you might, listen, it might happen by accident. You might invent something that literally changes the world so much. And then in the process, and then in the process, I would have to absolutely crush and destroy my competition to get there. Nobody becomes a billionaire ethically. It doesn't happen. I don't believe that. There's not one ethical billionaire that exists in the whole world. Well, there's no, I mean, listen, it's impossible, right? Because even if you, if you're getting the computers built,
Starting point is 01:09:40 them shit probably getting built in China with child labor. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? The Apple iPhone, that's not your fault. I mean, you decide to have them built there. That is your fault. You decide to have them built there. What else you're going to build them at?
Starting point is 01:09:52 You want to do child labor in Florida? Yeah. Keep them kids off the streets, bro. Why can't you do child labor in Florida? Keep them off the streets. Keep them off the beach, man. Why Florida is the, why Florida is the litmus test for every time? Started in Florida.
Starting point is 01:10:07 Florida's the new Bronx. No. The Bronx is the Bronx and then it's Florida. Now, Bronx used to have it down and all of a sudden, Florida came out and they were just whaling, bro. The last few years, Florida's taken over. You know what? You're right. The Bronx came up too much.
Starting point is 01:10:23 It got too successful. You got Deez-Samaro, Cardi B. Cardi B, French Montana. It's like they learned to take that crazy and focus it. You know what I'm saying? Then they gave us AOC. And it's like, what the, Fuck, this isn't the Bronx.
Starting point is 01:10:36 The Bronx is, I'm going to call the Bronx Riverdale. The Bronx is, I'm going to call the Bronx Westchester. I'm not even, and Bronx don't exist like it used to exist, bro. Meanwhile, Florida is still out here. Florida is still out here. Ignant is. And you got to love it. You got to respect it.
Starting point is 01:10:51 Low key. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You have to respect it. So put them kids to work. So here's my thing on Bill Gates. I think he knows people don't remember him for making anything. We see the sign, but we don't know what he made. How do you keep saying it?
Starting point is 01:11:04 This is the most brilliant. an idiot take we've had in months. Go, go. Everybody knows Bill Gates made things. But we don't know what they, what, we don't know what he made. Microsoft. Son, if I ask you to write down what it is, you would stare at the paper. It's the operating system for the PC. And then what? Your computer don't work without it.
Starting point is 01:11:23 It doesn't. So what is it? It's the heart. Is it the heart of the computer? I don't fucking know. I just know that when you turned the goddamn computer on. Nobody knows what Bill Gates did. As far as I'm concerned, he did nothing. No, that's not true. How you know computers even need an operating system? It has to.
Starting point is 01:11:43 How would it cut it on? Maybe it doesn't. Maybe this whole time he's been selling us nothing. No. When you cut, yeah, when you see? One of these buttons have the Microsoft shit on it, on the fucking keyboard. Yo, you know how easy it is to pick up your fucking iPhone and go, man, Steve Jobs made this? You know how easy it is to pick up your AirPods?
Starting point is 01:12:03 Be like, man, Steve Jobs made this. No. See, that's the thing. the thing, right? You're thinking about the tangible item that's in your hand. It's literally like saying that it doesn't matter. That's what we remember over time. The printing press. What was it? Gutenberg. Was it Gutenberg? Gutenberg made the fucking printer. You remember the things
Starting point is 01:12:20 you can hold? Bill Gates way more popular than goddamn Glutenberg. No, he's not. First of all, Glutenberg ain't been hot since he fucking was wrestling in the goddamn WCW. All right? He used to come out and motherfucking spear people and body slam him. When he got to the WU. he was whack.
Starting point is 01:12:37 I didn't even know he made the print and press. Wow. Made the print and press, bro. Think about other things, actual things that were invented, okay? Those brothers that made the airplane? Right brothers. Right brothers.
Starting point is 01:12:48 Boom. You know what they made a fucking airplane. They didn't make the operating system for the airplane. Nobody knows who the fuck made that. When they ask you in the future, what did Bill Gates make? You're going to say Microsoft. Hey, what did Elon Musk make?
Starting point is 01:12:59 Say it, bro. Tesla. Electric car. That should have been invented forever, but he made an, an electric car that we will all remember forever. He made the rocket that comes back to Earth. You're not going to remember what Bill Gates made, bro.
Starting point is 01:13:12 Nobody's going to ever forget Microsoft in Word Doc. You're a comedian. You write jokes on Word Doc. First of all, no, I don't. I write books in Word Doc. No, I don't. I do not write jokes on Word Doc. Okay?
Starting point is 01:13:26 I do not write, I don't not get my fucking Word Doc open and hit the return button a couple times and putting the end of the day. Bill Gates is the man. His logo is so recognizable. You see it. It's called Microsoft Word. You don't even know the name of it. That's how little you go remember Bill Gates.
Starting point is 01:13:41 Microsoft, baby. It's all Microsoft. You man fucking named an operating system for a PC after his dick. All right? Okay. And we're going to remember him forever. I don't think so, Doc. I don't believe in questioning.
Starting point is 01:13:56 I don't believe that logic of billionaires have to do something wrong either. I just think that some people. Tell me a billionaire who is completely clean. Just give me a completely clean. the thing. I don't know what they've done. I think I got one. I think I got one who's pretty clean. Oh. The guy who owns Starbucks. I think he's pretty clean, bro. Yeah, Howard Schultz. Your cousin? My cousin. Okay. You know, there's going to be people here who actually believe he's my cousin. I think we got to correct that.
Starting point is 01:14:24 And they always see you with Starbucks cups. He's like, you sneaky motherfucker. I knew this motherfucker. I knew this motherfucker. I knew he had a Starbucks money. He was old fucking thug. Howard Schultz has been funding. You know, Al just goes, Al goes, you're dressing their colors. You are dressing their colors. Howard Shultz has been funding Andrew Schocher's comedy career for the past two years. Let's go. Trust me. He hasn't.
Starting point is 01:14:45 But no, I don't know if he's clean either. Listen, I don't know. Here's the thing. We don't know any of these people. Somebody put that in the atmosphere one day that billionaires have to do foul shit in order to become billionaires. And now we just look at all the billionaire sideways. When the truth to the matter is, can we just admit we're jealous? Can we just admit we're envious?
Starting point is 01:15:05 Can we just admit it's kind of some hate, bro? I'm not jealous. I'm not jealous. I'm not either because I look at them and I say, what's going to be the idea that I create that changes the world and, you know, makes my family well off for a very, very long time. I think that I got a couple now. I think that I'm in the process of launching a couple.
Starting point is 01:15:25 We'll see. What you got? What's one of them? I wait until the press release comes out. And I wish that I didn't even have to put a press release out on it. But that comes up the territory when you are a person in my position. And when you're doing things with the people that I'm doing things with, press releases help the launch of things.
Starting point is 01:15:41 Got to get it, got to do it. Untuck it. Ever wonder why traditional buttonups look so long and baggy? That's because they were never meant to be worn that way. Untucked shirts were specifically designed to be worn untucked. Untuck it is the brand you've been looking for. It's the original untucked shirt. All right.
Starting point is 01:15:59 A modern solution to an old problem with no touch. tucking or tailoring required, no matter your size of shape. You hear that tailor? No matter your size of shape, their shirts are the perfect untucked length. All right? Now, you fuck with Untucket heavy, right? Shows. I love Untuck it, man.
Starting point is 01:16:13 If I need to have like a nice night out, but I don't want to look like a herb with my shirt tucked into my pants, I get that button down look. I look sophisticated. I get treated right. That's right if I'm actually going out to dinner, but this has changed. But I get treated right. My girls' parents respect me. and I'm still comfortable, untuck it, simple as that.
Starting point is 01:16:34 All right, don't just take showt's word for it, though. Try untuck it for yourself. Visit untucket.com and use code idiots for 20% off your first order. They even offer free shipping and returns on all orders in the U.S. That's un-t-U-C-K-I-T dot com and promo code idiots, 20% off your first order. Let's get back to the show. Okay, can we see your hairline? Nah.
Starting point is 01:16:57 You said you were going to show it to us this week, man. Come on. It's not as bad as I thought, though. Let me see it. Let me just see. The top of it. I want to see where the hair starts. Don't show us the part that's actually there.
Starting point is 01:17:09 Keep going back. Keep going back. God damn, bro. Keep going back. Bro. You look like black robocop. Keep going back. You still don't see anything?
Starting point is 01:17:23 No, keep going back. Is it in yet? Dude, keep going back. This is insane, dude. You still don't see nothing. Have you just shaved, bro? Keep going back. Keep going back.
Starting point is 01:17:36 Hold on. I already folded the hoodie down twice. Why you even wearing a hoodie? If you don't got no hair to cover at all, bro. You can wear a Yamaha. Jesus. Price. There's hair, right?
Starting point is 01:17:45 A little, maybe a little bit. Keep going back. A little grass on the infield. Bro, keep going back. Hey, dude. Microsoft is the brush you use. Bro, I don't know how to fuck Barber's not considered. essential working,
Starting point is 01:18:05 bro. Dude, I tried to get mine to come up from North Carolina, bro. I'm ready to risk it. Yeah, we got to, dude. We just got to risk it.
Starting point is 01:18:11 I'm ready to risk it. They already wear gloves and a fucking face thing. With the gloves on. Put the mask on. I'm ready to risk it, bro. Yeah. And they're cutting your hair
Starting point is 01:18:18 from behind you mostly, right? So it's not like they can breathe into your mouth. Let me check your temperature. We're good. Done. I think we got to bring it back. Keep conversation to a minimum.
Starting point is 01:18:27 Like, let's go. Ty, what's happening? That's it, man. That's my barber's name. Oh, okay. I thought you had someone calling in. Hold on. Let me, let's do some more things you won't care about next week.
Starting point is 01:18:37 Did we talk about, I think I mentioned this earlier. You said you thought they were lying. Wuhan in China has, I'll pull up my phone about the fucking guy. What they got? In China opens back up after three months lockdown. After what? After a three-month lockdown.
Starting point is 01:18:58 They've been locked down for three months. And now Wuhan has opened back up. but you say you don't believe China. I mean, do you believe China? Yes, and I'm going to tell you why. Why? Because there's a Chinese city that finally banned its citizens from eating dogs and cats.
Starting point is 01:19:17 It's the city of Shinsen. Okay. And it's in Wuhan. And they are banning the consumption of dog and cats beginning May 1st, calling it not only common practice and developed countries, but part of the demand and spirit of human civilization. Now, think about like chicken over here.
Starting point is 01:19:32 Yeah. what's the meat of steak a good steak. Yep. Imagine us really because something that we were doing over here caused the global pandemic. Because you know that's what they say. They say that they were experimenting on the animals in China, right?
Starting point is 01:19:51 And in Wuhan, they were experimenting on the animals and they didn't set the animals on fire. No, that's not what it was. That's what they're lying about. What they're doing is they have these wet markets. where they just sell any fucking animal. You can buy a jellyfish out of a bucket. You can buy a penguin.
Starting point is 01:20:08 You can just buy anything. This is where all the diseases start. Sorry, the video broke down a second at there. But basically, this is why all the viruses come out of China. It's because they're still dealing with animals, right? And there's this YouTuber named CGP Gray, and he puts out these great informational videos. But there's one, I think it's kind of about this.
Starting point is 01:20:28 And it's been something that's kind of curious, but nobody ever asked, right? It's like, you know when like white people came to America and they gave smallpox to the Native Americans, right? But nobody ever asks, why didn't the Native Americans give their diseases to the white people? Right. Technically, they both should have their unique diseases and then give it to each other and then wipe each other out, right? The issue, the reason why they didn't is because they didn't have any diseases. because Native Americans
Starting point is 01:21:01 weren't dealing with domesticated animals. They didn't domesticate any animals before white people came. Say again? Or maybe Native Americans weren't psychopathic, genocidal killers who wanted to wipe out. You got to be thinking about germ warfare. Well, no, they were psychopathic and genocidal to each other.
Starting point is 01:21:19 I mean, that's documented. But in terms of the small box shit, like why didn't just being around them give off the disease? The reason why white people have had so many diseases because they've been around animals for so long, right? So, like, if you look at, like, in England, I think the cholera outbreak happened because they're around pigs and shit like that.
Starting point is 01:21:35 Basically, it has any society start to develop, you start to have animals, you domesticate the animals, now you're kicking it with these animals. And when humans are kicking with animals, they're not supposed to be kicking with. Eventually, these viruses or diseases start popping up and then people end up dying.
Starting point is 01:21:48 China, they still do that shit. The rest of us are like... I mean, animals have parasites and, you know, viruses and shit that exist within them that are compatible with their immune system. but not ours. Not us. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:22:00 So now we get them shits from the animals, right? Because we're living in such close proximity, we're not supposed to be doing that. And China still does it when they have these wet markets. So if they want to shut down to wet markets, then we're not going to have these diseases pop up every few years like we have. But until they do that, we're still going to get a disease every few years out of China
Starting point is 01:22:17 because someone got to eat a bat or someone got to fucking wrestle a pig or someone got to eat a fucking, I don't know, whatever it is. That's why I salute the city in China. I salute the city in China because they stopped the consumption of dog and cats. There you go. That's big. Yeah, it is big.
Starting point is 01:22:31 It's part. That's like somebody over here stopping the consumption of meat because the meat isn't healthy as as vegans have been trying to tell us for years. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, but big. I don't think that they eat as much dog as we eat steak. I don't know if that's true or not. I don't think they do.
Starting point is 01:22:50 I mean, that's my son. If you have to put a law in place to stop the consumption of it, they eat some dog. They might be eating a lot of them. There's a dog filet out there somewhere, bro. And I'm not even... Hey, hey, hey, there's a McDonald's. They're the McDonald's. All right.
Starting point is 01:23:07 If they got to stop the consumption of it, they're eating a lot of that motherfucker, bro. They got to make a law to stop it. It's going down. Yo, you're right, man. I can't say you're wrong, bro. If you got to implement a law... Yes, man.
Starting point is 01:23:19 Like, you don't build a wall unless motherfuckers are trying to sneak in. That's what I'm saying. It's going down. Like China built a wall. China built a wall. John said the consumption. of dog and cat is done.
Starting point is 01:23:32 Should we, should we bring him in? Hit his drop one time, Taylor. Let's bring him in. I know he's dying. Can he, Chris, can he chime in? Chris, are you muted?
Starting point is 01:23:41 You got to unmute your shit. I'm on to ring you. Can you hear me? Now we can hear you. Go. chime in, Chris. I mean, I don't, I don't think they eat that much dog in China.
Starting point is 01:23:50 Obviously, they eat it more than in other places. Not in China. It's particular city. I can't remember the name of it. I had, we got it written down. I can't remember the name of it. It's a city in Wuhan.
Starting point is 01:23:59 Oh, Juan is a city. But that doesn't kind of prove the point because dogs and cats, whether you're eating or not, are already domesticated. You're already in contact with them. I think what you guys are talking about is other animals that we wouldn't normally be in contact with that they're catching in the wild, bringing them in and then eating them. Correct. Non-domesticated animals.
Starting point is 01:24:21 That's the issue. You can't be around non-domesticated animals, right? Like Native Americans didn't have horses until white people brought them over. They didn't have anything domesticated. So they just weren't around shit. Why they stopped the consumption of the dogs and the cats then? I think it's a PR move. They're like, man, they know that we eat dogs and cats and they make fun of us for it.
Starting point is 01:24:38 All right, cut that shit out. But you could still sell a turtle in the middle of the street in China. You didn't hear the city I named, Chris? I said the city in the beginning. The one that has the dog festival every year. There's a dog eating festival. No, let me get it. Hold on.
Starting point is 01:24:53 There is a city, and they did a, somebody did some like documentary on it, but there's like this big dog festival every single year. matter of fact, I should look up on my phone and maybe they shut it down there. But like you said, Chris, that's not the issue. The issue is you just can't be hanging around these fucking animals and then just having them out there in the open
Starting point is 01:25:11 or else eventually people are going to catch some weird shit from them. Yeah, I mean, I think the Native American point's a good point. But the other thing I would say to further that is the other advantage, the reason Native Americans didn't have diseases, they didn't travel much beyond their natural boundaries. The reason Europeans have been trading diseases and Asians is they travel all over the world for thousands of years. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:36 And when you travel- Shinsen, Shinsen, Chris. Shinsen? A Wuhan province. So when you travel around the world, that's a good point. And you're bringing these animals around the world that people aren't used to living with. That's when you're going to trade that disease. I mean, like the black plague, the bubonic plague. Like, that was started from rats from China.
Starting point is 01:25:55 Rats from China came along the Silk Road or whatever it was. because finally there was trade between Europe and China, and they also traded some of their lovely plagues with us. I'm going to tell you something, though, man. Y'all fronting, if we've ever had some of that rat on a stick, man, that shit be hitting. Yo, I'm not saying it's not. Some of them foreign animals be hitting, bro.
Starting point is 01:26:21 You would have to start me out with a squirrel, like something more aesthetically pleasing. Love squirrel. You've eaten squirrel? Hell, yeah. Bullshit. Squirrel in West Virginia. Sloop to the Buckwawah family.
Starting point is 01:26:31 I was thinking about them this week. That's so crazy. And Shane died. I think Shane died on April 1st. It's been April 8th. But yes, I don't know how long it's been since Shane's been dead. But yeah, we had squirrel dumpling. We had bear's shoulder.
Starting point is 01:26:45 I want to try bear, bro. That bear was hitting, bro. It was good. Duval didn't like none of it. I cleaned my plate. Yeah, but Duvall just eats appetizers and McDonald's. We had deer has squirrels, deer has squirreled dumpling and bear's shoulder. the fresh green beans that they grew.
Starting point is 01:27:01 Yo, Duvall said the funniest shit when he was on Rogan. Like, he said he only eats fast food, right? Be as fast food is good, right? And Rogan's like, yeah, but haven't you seen those studies where like they take a McDonald's hamburger and they just leave it there for 15 years and it looks exactly the same? And then Duvall looks at him. He goes, ain't that good? And Loki, he got a point.
Starting point is 01:27:26 Like, if the food doesn't go bad, man. Maybe it's not that bad. Listen, things you won't care about next week. Can you not hear me? What's going on? I missed it. The last thing I heard you say was, ain't that's good. No, yeah, I guess we broke up.
Starting point is 01:27:42 It's all good. Ellen DeGeneres. Oh, yeah. She was in her mansion, which I'm not mad at, you know, and she's quarantining with her wife. Yeah. And she said that she feels like she's in jail. Sometimes, I forgot what the exact quote was.
Starting point is 01:28:00 has it, but she says she feels like she's in jail, yada, yada, yada, which a lot of people are saying. No, no, she had, she had context for it. That was funny. What was the context, Taylor? I feel like I'm in jail because I can't go anywhere and everybody's gay. Yes. Play the clip, Taylor, if you got it. So it was a joke. This is like being in jail is what it is. It's mostly because I've been wearing the same clothes for 10 days and everyone in here is gay. Listen, comedian, a good joke, I guess. basic, but bad timing. The reason is bad timing is because
Starting point is 01:28:36 if you see what's happening in these prisons right now due to the coronavirus, it's not dope. It's not sexy at all, bro. What's happening? What's happening in those prisons? Well, you got, there's a prison in Ohio. Oh, can we stop right now? Yes. Takashi's free. We got to talk about this, bro. Yeah, let's put a button on this Ellen thing
Starting point is 01:28:58 real quick. But you look at what's happening in prison. You had this guy he called from this low security prison in Ohio. He was showing himself on the FaceTime and he was just showing prisoners around him sick. He's got a year left on his sentence for a non-violent drug offense.
Starting point is 01:29:14 He's like, I might die in here. You know, you saw the letter that Tax Stone put out a couple weeks ago about what's going on in Rikers. Taxstone said he feels like he's in a grave with his eyes wide open. You know, you see there was a brother in Louisiana. He had like a year left on his
Starting point is 01:29:30 sentence for a non-violent drug offense. He died. If you look at what happened in California, they let like 3,500 inmates free. Yeah. Right? Because they're just like, look, these guys got, they don't have to have a little bit of time left on their sentences. They're non-violent, you know, drug offenders. Let them go. Like, let them go. Yeah. So, you know, for Ellen to say that, it was just a little, little tone deaf, especially when you have people putting a lot of resources into the prisons right now. Like, you know, Jay-Z and Mick Milled them just sent a lot of PPE to Rikers Island, you know, when you see people who, you know, when you see people, releasing the prisoners because they don't want, they don't want them to die in jail,
Starting point is 01:30:03 but they know that's what potentially could happen. But it was just a little tone deaf, Ellen. And if I was Ellen, it's an easy way to clean this up, easy. Just bring Van Jones on your show. Let Van Jones bring light to what's happening in some of these prisons. You know what I'm saying? Bring some attention to it. So some of these other governors, some of these other, you know, state officials take heed
Starting point is 01:30:22 to what they did in California, what they're doing even in New York. Like, let some of these prisoners go. That's all. The nonviolent drug offenders Or Or you could prove how gay it is And drop that porn What?
Starting point is 01:30:39 What's wrong with you? Come on, son You don't want to see that Ellen porn You want to see her dance now? Show me that dance, girl. No, what are you talking about? Come on, bro. Absolutely not.
Starting point is 01:30:49 You wouldn't watch an Ellen porn. I thought you liked old woman porn. Now all of a sudden you don't. No, I want her to use her platform to help bring light to what's happening into these print. I want her to use her. platform for porn.
Starting point is 01:31:01 And I think she will, because a lot of people were tweeting her and stuff today. And all you got to do is bring Van Jones on, let Van Jones speak about it. Now, we can talk about 6'9. 6'9 is home. Talking about porn. Let's talk about 6'9.
Starting point is 01:31:13 We can talk about 6'9 because, like I said earlier, you have brilliant people, you have idiots. But are you going to do what you promised to do? No, because I won the bet. You said, if 69 gets out of jail, I'm a sucker to his ad dee, I said if 6-9 beats his case. Yes.
Starting point is 01:31:34 That's what I said. You said if he beat his case, you're sucking that dang a line of life. He didn't beat his case. He didn't beat his case? No. He didn't get out before he was supposed to get out? No. Six-nine sat in jail for a year.
Starting point is 01:31:50 He rated on everybody. He did rat. He rated on everybody. Went to court. And they told him he had another year. And then he went there for that year. then God bless him coronavirus happens. Let me tell you something.
Starting point is 01:32:04 He's one of the guys I'm talking about. I wouldn't let you suck his dick, bro. I wouldn't suck his dick. I wouldn't suck his dick. I wouldn't, I wouldn't bet. I wouldn't let you, though. Seriously. I'm not going to let him see the top of your head like this, bro. Listen, here's what kidney doesn't say.
Starting point is 01:32:18 Not until you get a haircut. Salomey won the bet. Say again? I won the bet. So he got to suck your dick? I said if he beats his case. He did not beat his case. So does he have to suck your dick?
Starting point is 01:32:29 I was just being I was I was being I don't know what the word is What's the word? Facetious No it wasn't facetious It was another word I used to use Hyperbole
Starting point is 01:32:39 Hyperbo Got you bro There you go bang I was gonna call it Hyperbo I'm like no that's not what it is Hyperbo is the next disease To come out of China Hyperbole
Starting point is 01:32:48 Okay hyperbole Hyperbole is what that was I was just letting people know That there's no way He's beating his fucking case All right And he didn't beat the case I was so confident that he wouldn't beat the case
Starting point is 01:33:01 that I offered to do that. You were willing to put your lips on the line. And not only did I do that, I provided entertainment for the internet forever. You really did. Now I will not let that shit die. Six-nine is out. We got to talk to him.
Starting point is 01:33:16 We got to have a conversation. Not interested. He should go on Ellen. You probably will end up on Ellen. And talk about what's really going on jail. I'm not interested. I thought what he did this week was corny. What do you do?
Starting point is 01:33:30 There was a post on the shade room and it was something about Oh yeah, that shit was funny as out. I meant that shit was funny, man. That shit ain't funny. Come on, bro. I'm going to tell you why that shit ain't funny because you ruined a bunch of people's lives
Starting point is 01:33:45 and you think that shit is a joke. Who? And when 6-9 did that, he showed me that he has not learned from the era of his ways at all because check it out. It's people like, there that will really kill you for that.
Starting point is 01:34:02 For snitching? Snitching. And you're going to come home and make a joke about it. Like, hey, six, nine to the rescue. Those kids and shit may laugh at you. Six nine, you have not escaped the raft of the screech. But here's the thing. It's like, once someone's going to kill you,
Starting point is 01:34:19 nothing you say is going to make them kill you more. Like he's already got the death penalty. So at this point of time, it's like there's no risk in trolling because I'm already going to get killed if they ever see me. I mean, I get what you're saying and you're absolutely right. But that's not the way to live life. That's not the way to live when you've gotten a second chance at life. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:38 Regardless of how you've gotten that second chance, regardless of it was because you snitched and not. That's no way to live that life, bro. Like, you'd be happy. Would you ever talk to him? Would you ever have an interview with him or have a conversation? I don't think so. Really? I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:34:53 I don't see the need. Because for me, it would just be a and I told you so. Because, you know, when I did the first interview with him, and everybody said I was trying to troll him. I wasn't trying to troll him at all. I was just telling him how this shit was going in. Bro. Should we try to touch our fingers together and you just go,
Starting point is 01:35:08 E.T. phone home. Ety phone home. Like, no, I really don't think. I really don't think I would interview six nine. He looks like E.T. with the hoodie on. I don't see any reason for me to want to interview six nine. But I think that you would obviously make an interesting. interview. You guys have that funny joke and banter, but there could also be a situation where you press
Starting point is 01:35:33 him on the shit that he did. I don't think it's Ruffet. That's fair. We know what he did. You know what I'm saying? Like, I don't get anything out of that. That's just me being, like, for what? Like, we know what he did. That's literally like praying. I've been thinking about this. Okay. You pray to God, right? And tell him what's going on. Yeah. Right? And tell him what you need help with. As if God doesn't already know. Right. We were talking about this last week, right? It's like, it's the stupidest logic in the world.
Starting point is 01:36:04 So I don't get anything out of telling 6-9 what the world already knows. 6-9 knows he read it. Yeah. 6-9 got to live with that every day of his life. Trust me, he don't feel good about that. You think he doesn't, you think he doesn't feel good? No. That tweet, that caption was him putting his toe in the water.
Starting point is 01:36:24 And I'm telling you, 6-9, don't come out. Really? Don't do it, bro. No, don't do it. Don't do it. Don't play with it. Don't play with it in that way. What do you think is going to happen to him?
Starting point is 01:36:33 Honestly, what do you see happening to him? I really don't know. I don't want to predict his future because I don't want to put any negative energy his weight. Right. But it's going to be very interesting because you really, you never could believe him to begin with, but you really can't believe him now. You definitely can't come out and start rapping about no gangster shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:53 You know what I'm saying? And if you rap about being a snitch, that would be a great angle. That would be something we'd be something we'd. never seen before, but that ain't going to fly. Right. You know what I'm saying? Like, I really don't know. I don't know where 6-9 goes from here. To be totally honest, I'm sure that it'll be plenty of people wanting to interview him. I'm sure there'll be plenty of documentaries made and all types of shit. I'm sure he will have no shortage of work opportunities, but I'm not interested. I wish
Starting point is 01:37:18 him the best. I don't wish bad on him. Can he make a living after this? Yeah, because he can still put out music? And can he stay safe? probably not. Depends, though. But I would say probably not. The only reason I say depends is because it just matters like, you know, the only, what world he chooses to be in,
Starting point is 01:37:40 but that don't even matter no more. If they want to come get you, they're going to come get you. And you just don't know, you just don't know who he's pissed off. It's not even about his direct enemies. I'm telling you, it's people that don't like rats. Ratting is not some hood shit. You know that shows.
Starting point is 01:37:55 That's mafia ball shit. That's fucking, nobody, nobody. likes to snitch on any level. They don't like white collar snitches. They don't like hood snitches. They don't like the snitches that snitched on the mafia. They don't like snitching. So I don't know.
Starting point is 01:38:07 I don't know. I don't know. I know those kids won't care. Those kids will still buy his music. They don't have those same values. Don't give a fuck about the street light. They give a fuck about his antics and him making people laugh. That's an interesting point that you brought up is that it's not just the people he snitched on. people in general don't like snitches.
Starting point is 01:38:32 So now he's going to get different treatment. He's not going to get protection when he goes to certain cities because you can't protect a rat. There's going to be a lot of complications. I never thought about it that way. That's really interesting. So when you snitch. Yeah, it's like when you snitch,
Starting point is 01:38:47 you remove yourself from the protection of the street code, if you will. Like you go to a certain city, there are guys in that city that you could hire to protect you. They're not professional, going to get the job done and they know everybody in the city and they call everybody in the city and go, hey, listen, don't touch him. He's hiring me. Everything's cool. Correct? Is that kind of how it goes? Pretty much, yeah. So now you can't call on those people. Now you got to get what, like a regular security company to like walk around you? Like, how does he leave his house?
Starting point is 01:39:18 Bro, nobody likes snitches. You think, why do you think nobody's, why you think nobody test fight against Donald Trump? Fear that he was the president? And that he was going to hold him accountable. You snitch, you think you're going to snitch on me? Yeah. You know, have a career, have a life, whatever. Like, no. You don't play that shit at all. And guess what?
Starting point is 01:39:41 The ones that didn't snitch, get protected. That's all. That's why I say you got to celebrate certain ones. That's why I'm like, damn. When I look at hip hop and I look at the laws, and I've said this before, when I look at the laws that hip hop has and champions and celebrates, by hip hop's law. Bobby Smurter should fucking come home to a million dollars.
Starting point is 01:40:05 And be a king. You should be. That is interesting. I think we were having a conversation. I think it was me, you and Van, right? And we were having a little group chat.
Starting point is 01:40:13 And I asked, why is it that he can't snitch? Like, if they friend his family or they did these types of things, et cetera, right? And it was, you or him said something interesting to me. You were like, what was it exactly?
Starting point is 01:40:30 something like it's there's a difference when you snitch on people that you do illegal stuff with there is a code because you're all agreeing to do something illegal so if you get caught you're all making that choice absolutely something like that right yeah yeah absolutely now if those people you're working with break that code not by going to the feds by by coming after you you still can't snitch i don't think so so it's one of those things where if you operate illegally you have to understand there is no protection from the police no matter what. You sign that agreement when you desired to operate illegally. Yeah, I think it's no honor amongst thieves, right? So when you're in a circle like that, why would you expect, you know, any type of loyalty, any type of nobility from any of
Starting point is 01:41:16 those people. Yes, those people may flip on you and kidnap you one day. Yes, those people may flip on you and kill you one day. Yes, if all of y'all get busted, one day one of y'all might snitch. Like, There's, it's, it's, it's a, it's a, it's a den of thieves. Yeah. They're criminals. You know what I'm saying? Like, like they, some of them might operate with different codes, but you clearly, he wasn't one of them.
Starting point is 01:41:39 And, you know, you kind of got to blame them for bringing him into the fold. But it's like, man, I don't even, I'm not even interested in the six-nine shit. Like, I'm about as interested in six-nine six-nine Drake's Tootsie Slot. Yo, that shit is bombing, huh? That's your what? That's bombing. Yeah, I think it's whack. I think it's whack and I think it's beneath Drake.
Starting point is 01:42:02 I think that when you're the biggest artist in the world, when you're the biggest rapper in the world, I don't like to see you chasing trends. You know what I'm saying? It's like, why be a surfer when you're a fucking wave? You know what I mean? I just didn't respect it. I'm like, and it don't matter.
Starting point is 01:42:17 The shit might still work, but it just don't seem organic. A lot of times with those dances, those TikTok dances, I see them. It's just organic. It's a song. like and then somebody does something to it and it goes. It was like, it felt too
Starting point is 01:42:29 forced. It felt too corporate, too industry. And I just feel like Drake has built himself up into such a way that he don't have to do that shit, man. It was the first time I seen him look thirsty. It was the first time I seen him hop on the wave instead of being the wave, like you said.
Starting point is 01:42:47 And it was too, it was like he sat in a room and he was like, okay, everybody's at home. They can't go outside. Why don't we tap into this? dance crazy shit that's on TikTok. I'm going to break TikTok with this song. And like you said, if it's not organic, it's not going to ride. People need to feel like they're doing something. They need to feel like they're part of the creative process. And he gave instructions how to do to dance in the dance. It should never be that way. And it reminded me like, you're familiar with Betty
Starting point is 01:43:17 Crocker, right? So Betty Crocker back in the day, right? They had the cookie mix back in the day. and they had everything done where you just add water, right? And nobody was buying it. And they were like, why the fuck is nobody buying it? And it turns out the people that were cooking it, the housewives, they didn't feel like they were actually baking. So what they did is they said, add an egg. Now if you get some cookies right now, some cookie mix,
Starting point is 01:43:43 they always say add an egg, right? Everything's in there, just add an egg, right? Yeah, and now you feel like they're doing it on their own. Now you feel like you're doing it. He didn't let you add the egg. He's like, I'm going to put the egg in. I'm gonna just do everything. All you gotta do is add water
Starting point is 01:43:57 and then it's done. And people do not like that. Let me add the fucking egg. Yeah, and I watched the fake, organic shit he tried to create around it. I watched academics post the video. I think the guy's name is actually Tootsie, who's a dancer.
Starting point is 01:44:12 I saw act posted video and they were dancing to Drake's song a couple weeks prior. Yeah. And I'm sure he reached out to act and asked Act to post that. And then I saw him leave a comment and he was like, yo,
Starting point is 01:44:23 I'm gonna put this. out since y'all turning up to it. And so then he put it out the next week with a whole video attached to it. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? And it just, I just didn't like that for Drake. It's literally like watching Jay-Z do a Snap record when Snap was hot. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:44:39 It's just like, yo, you're the biggest. I'm really, I really want to say this. I don't know if Drake knows he's Drake. I wonder, something about a lot of the moves Drake has made lately make me feel like he doesn't realize that he's Drake. Like, bro, I don't give a fuck. How much people clowns you? How much I've cloned you over the year? You are solidified. You are absolutely a legend. Like right now at this point, you're playing for legacy. If you want to make a dance record, cool. Fine. It's music. You put it out. You know, music is subjective. I think the shit is corny. But it almost feels like you're just trying to stay in tune with what's going on now. Yeah. I just want to tell you, bro, like, yo, why be a fucking surfer? When you could be the wave.
Starting point is 01:45:25 And he is the wave. It is weird. Maybe. I don't know. Maybe he put out a few songs that didn't really catch on. You know, he's put out a couple songs since the last album that didn't really, you know. That's who. Corona.
Starting point is 01:45:39 Got him. Got him. Let's go. They don't even say God bless you anymore. Did you say Corona? Corona. But yeah, maybe he put out a couple songs. They didn't really pop off.
Starting point is 01:45:49 And then he started to get a little nervous. And he's like, let me get a guaranteed hit. Let me just do this dance crazy shit. And then he tried a little. too hard. You know, he went a little over the top with it. I mean, it's possible. I don't know if it's a guaranteed hit. By the way, that's a record Drake could have gave to somebody. Yeah. Like, it's not, it's sonically not a bad record. It's just whack for him. Yeah. You know what I mean? Sonically, it's not a bad record at all. It's just like,
Starting point is 01:46:09 watching Drake do that is like, eh. Yeah. To a little kid in Canada, man. Get up to some little 15-year-old, 16-year-old kid. You know what I mean? Let him do that and you just pop up in the video dancing. Yeah. And people are like, oh, shit. You know, you know, Drake wrote that. Oh, wow. Yeah. I mean, like, I don't know. I just, I just didn't like it. I thought it was whack.
Starting point is 01:46:30 Maybe it'll work. Only people I really see doing the dance is other celebrities. And that's because there's really no artists. It's not too many artists who got as many celebrity groupies as Drake. Well, that's the thing. It's like you can tell when it doesn't resonate when the kids aren't doing it on TikTok. I didn't see it. It's not.
Starting point is 01:46:48 I'm not saying they're not. I haven't seen it. They're not. It's not really taken over. A few celebs tried to do it. If you like lower tier NBA players try to do it. Because it's Drake. Right, because they're huge fans of Drake, as they should be.
Starting point is 01:47:01 He's fucking incredible. Yes. But again, if you try too hard and you force it too much, people can tell. And maybe they didn't catch the act thing that was, you know, maybe orchestrated. A lot of people don't realize this. So much of this shit is PR. So much of this shit is orchestrated. Everything that you see is like organic or you think is like, oh, this just happened to go viral.
Starting point is 01:47:20 They're doing it on purpose. You know what I mean? Like. This one was definitely done on purpose. I mean, even, it's a little stuff. Like, I just see him doing things that I normally, um, wouldn't expect from him. It's weird.
Starting point is 01:47:31 You know what? You know what? I mean, everything, like the pictures of the sun, you know, popping up on, you know, people's Instagram lives, you know, uh, he putting out a lot of music, which is good, but, you know, the music ain't really like sticking, sticking. And then, you know, I saw him on live.
Starting point is 01:47:48 I didn't see it, but I heard about him on live one night previewing music. And it's just like, Drake. You're Drake. Yeah. You're Drake. Yeah. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:47:58 Like you are certified, King. Like, don't ever let nobody tell you different. You don't have to follow no trends. You don't have to surf no waves. You are the motherfucking wave. You're leaning into your executive producer bag. You're an EP of Top Boy. You're an EPA of Euphoria.
Starting point is 01:48:14 Like, bro, I just want you to know you are Drake. Yeah. That's it. That's it. I don't want, like, please. Just always. remember that. So what should he do now? What's the next move? If you were, if you were managing Drake or you are consulting Drake, what would you tell him? I mean, Drake should do whatever it is that he wants to do.
Starting point is 01:48:32 You know what would you tell him? I would tell him lean into his EP back. So lead music. I think Drake has put out enough music that I think Drake has put out enough music to last us for a long, long time. I would tell Drake that if you if you really feel like you want to make music, you always want to record cool. But if I was Drake at this point, man, I'd be giving away a lot of those hits. And the reason I would be giving away a lot of those hits is because, you know, Drake still hasn't necessarily broke a artist of his own. He's helped a lot of artists pop off, but he hasn't necessarily created another star. And I think the only way Drake will be able to really, really create another star is if he commits solely to that one artist. And he's not, he's not thinking about any music for himself whatsoever.
Starting point is 01:49:16 He's not an album bowl. He's not in nothing. And he's just in the studio working with this person, trying to make this artist the best arts that they could possibly. You know what I'm saying? I think that that's what I would be doing. If I was Drake by my soul focus right now would be, you know, let me empower as many people as possible.
Starting point is 01:49:34 Even though he's already done a lot of that. You know, it's just time to, it's just time to breed, breed the next generation of star. You know, you're a certified star. You've been in the game a decade. It's not going nowhere for you. It's not going nowhere for Jay Cole. not going nowhere for Kendrick Lamar.
Starting point is 01:49:49 That's why I love Kendrick so much because Kendrick really picks and chooses his spots, man. That's who I can't wait to hear from again. Kendrick Lamar has mastered the art of old celebrity. Yeah. What I mean by old celebrity is mysterious. Walk away, disappear. That's it. You hear from him when he wants you to hear from him.
Starting point is 01:50:14 And you hear from him through his art. Yeah. Nothing more, nothing less. They ain't no salacious headlines. It ain't no, we saw, you know, Kendrick at Starbucks. You don't get none of that. You see Kendrick when you see Kendrick. And every time he comes out, he shifts coach him.
Starting point is 01:50:32 And I think, you know, we also have to remember that this is a marathon. It's not a sprint. Yes. It's not about being the most relevant person at the moment. It's about being the person that's going to be hot forever. That is true. And I think Kendrick is really playing forever in a real way. That is true.
Starting point is 01:50:47 but at the same time, you can't be the number one rapper in the world if you're doing it the way Kendrick is doing it. You have to be doing what Drake is doing to be number one. And maybe Kendrick doesn't want to be number one, and maybe that's what we love about him so much. Maybe we love the fact that it's just the music that he cares about. But Drake definitely wants to be the number one rapper in the world
Starting point is 01:51:08 and he wants to hold that belt every single year. And that's fine. That's great. Yeah. Some people care about. constant relevancy. Some people care about ultimate legacy.
Starting point is 01:51:24 And I think, I think, I think, Drake has already solidified his ultimate legacy by the way he does things. Yeah. But you don't have to chase constant relevancy. Like, you don't have to be the person that's involved with every
Starting point is 01:51:36 conversation. You don't have to be the person that's on every trend. Sometimes it's cool just to sit back and observe and be a fan. Yeah. Like, to me, that's how I get inspired. You know, like for me, I'm most dangerous when I'm quiet. You know, even though you hear me every day,
Starting point is 01:51:53 but what I'm saying is when I'm just sitting back observing, watching everything that's going on and figuring out what's missing in the landscape, what value can I really add to the current climate of the culture? And if I don't feel like I can add any value to the current climate of the culture, I'm going to think about what's next. Where are we going?
Starting point is 01:52:15 Is, is Ken, is Ken, Is Kendrick like Nas if he could pick good beats? Nah, a little stronger than Nas. No, not in terms of like word play or ability. I mean, because Nas is phenomenal, but in terms of like the way he went about his career. Because I never thought Nas was thirsty to be in the limelight or in the spotlight. Kendrick is a way biggest start than Nas has been.
Starting point is 01:52:44 You think in Nas' peak, Yeah. You think Kendrick was bigger now than Nas was at Nas' peak? Yeah, and that's no no Noctin. I don't want nobody to take, because everybody loves to say, oh, shawl, maybe hating. That's no nocta Nas.
Starting point is 01:52:56 I'm just talking about in terms of stardom and celebrity. You compare Illmatic, which was critically acclaimed to Good Kid Madge City, which was critically acclaimed and commercially successful. What about Stillmatic? Critically acclaimed and commercially successful. Yeah, but that was like seven albums in. Let me see.
Starting point is 01:53:15 Stillmatic was, let me see. Illmatic. It was written. I am. Nostradamus. I think Stilmatic was the fifth album, right? Stilmatic was the fifth album. It was written.
Starting point is 01:53:26 It was written. No, Illmatic. Illmatic, it was written. I am. Nostradamus. Stilmatic or one more? I think it was still Maddoch. I think Stilmatic is the fifth one.
Starting point is 01:53:39 Okay. Somebody Googled that for me, but I think still Mad is the fifth one. Okay. Fifth album. Yeah. Hendricks only on his technically third. I mean, you can count Section 80,
Starting point is 01:53:48 that was a mixtape. But count a mixtape because rappers back in the day didn't do mixtapes like rappers do now. I count Good Kid Mads City as his first official project. So Good Kid Mads City, the pimple butterfly. Damn. These three albums. Okay.
Starting point is 01:54:05 Multiple Grammy winner. Fair enough. Platinum artist. Fair enough. Fucking, he won a, what did he win? The Pulitzer Prize. Kendrick is a superstar, bro. We just don't, we don't appreciate Kendrick
Starting point is 01:54:17 because he's not around like that. But Kendrick is a superstar in a real way. My mom knows Kendrick Lamar. Yo, you know what it might be? You know how like, I think we had this discussion. Like, when Jordan was in the league, nobody else ate. Like, nobody else got a ring. And I think there could be something to how Drake has tainted the perception of greatness
Starting point is 01:54:43 about the around the artists that were around him. because Drake, I think, has been so good that without Drake, maybe we look at Kendrick as that. Maybe Kendrick is... I just think it's a matter of we see Drake all the time. Drake don't take no breaks. Yeah. Drake does a lot of features.
Starting point is 01:55:03 Yeah. About albums every other year. Yeah. He's always around. And if he's not always around with his music, he's around in the news. Like, Drake is always around. That's the only difference, I believe.
Starting point is 01:55:13 Yeah, he's like the Kardashian of rap. Yeah. Yeah. Drake is a very traditional rap star. A very traditional music star. You know what I'm saying? You're going to see him sitting sideline at the games. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:55:29 You're going to see him dating the celebrity chicks. Like, he's going to have scandals and shit like that. But he also has great music. He's a wife. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. He's in the cut with his family. But Kendra Lamar got,
Starting point is 01:55:41 Kenrauma is a superstar with a lot of fucking money at his disposal. And I really love the way he. moves and I really love the way he does things. And I think that for me, he's always been the leader of the new school for this new generation. Like, you know, you look at them and you say the three-headed monster, the new three-headed monster is Kendrick Cole, Drake.
Starting point is 01:55:59 For me, for me, Kendrick is number one. Now, if I'm being objective and I got to put, you know, everything on the table in this totality, of course, you can argue for Drake to be number one. But when it comes to just that rap and, you know, being a music artist, I got to put Kendrick
Starting point is 01:56:15 at number one. Kendrick, Kendrick number one, I'll put Drake number two, then Cole number three. And then my other favorite rapper of the past decade is Rhapsody. That's just off straight talent, you know, and pure skill. Right. But Kendrick is, I can't wait to see what Kendrick does, man. I really, I'm really looking forward to Kendrick's next project. You know why?
Starting point is 01:56:35 Another reason for what you was talking about earlier, get older, got more experiences. He's married now. He got a child. He's seen a lot more life. You know, and plus just the way the world has been the past few years, like, and Kendrick is that type of person who absorbs all of that and puts it in this music.
Starting point is 01:56:55 I can't fucking wait for Kendrick Lamar's new shit, man. I really can't. I really can't. Yeah, someone's going to have to deliver an album during this quarantine that's going to serve us all of us, you know? Someone's going to have to do it. I don't know who it's going to be, but there is room right now. for someone to deliver music
Starting point is 01:57:18 that's going to kind of capture our feelings and we'll really gravitate towards that person, man. I wouldn't give it to it. If I was them, whoever the person is, I don't think I would put it out till next year. Oh, wait on it. Bro, you got a lot of good shit about that. First of all, we don't know how this shit about the end.
Starting point is 01:57:32 Yeah. That's number one. Yeah. We got the election in November, baby. You know what I'm saying? You're about to see a whole lot of shit that you ain't never seen before. Let me see.
Starting point is 01:57:43 It's going to be hard to keep smiling. And I can't remember the rest of the way. I would have to fuck Tupac said. All right, guys. We're going to take a break for a second. Pay some bills. Listen, how is it that most cleaning products make you feel so dirty?
Starting point is 01:57:57 That is the exact opposite of their intended purpose. Okay? They got these chemicals inside them. You're using these plastic bottles. Traditional cleaning products are surprisingly messy in their business practices. That's why there's clean cult. Okay? Clean cult makes natural cleaners that,
Starting point is 01:58:14 actually clean with ingredients that you can actually understand with packaging that's actually landfill free, all right? And they're off the plastics.

Starting point is 02:00:36 Give us some asking idiots. Stop stuff in your face. Four times since this podcast. I have a show. Taylor, we're going to do. three asking idiots, and get out of here because we got a long, there's a long episode already. Okay.
Starting point is 02:00:51 Well, y'all kind of already answered that. For T.J. Bottlepock, he wants to know who should give Kobe Hall famous speech. Ooh, good question. Who should give Kobe Bryant's Hall of Fame speech? I mean, obviously, you know, you're going to say Jordan, but I would actually really like Phil Jackson to do it.
Starting point is 02:01:14 I think that's it. Phil, right? That's it. We haven't seen Phil speak. We didn't see Phil speak at the memorial. The memorial. Oh, I think that's what you call it. What was it called?
Starting point is 02:01:24 The Memorial. I think the Memorial, yeah. Yeah, you didn't see Phil speak at the memorial. I haven't seen, I personally haven't seen a statement from Phil Jackson. I could be wrong. I haven't seen one since his death. We saw Shaq talk. We saw Kobe talk.
Starting point is 02:01:36 I don't think they should put Vanessa through that again. Plus, it's about basketball. You know what I'm saying? It's about basketball. It's about that legacy that he's about that he's about, he left on the court, I definitely think Phil Jackson would be, um, Phil. Phil would definitely be the best person. All right. What else, Tay?
Starting point is 02:01:54 Um, okay. From Island boy. You just don't know how to read? Huh? Nothing. Okay. Um, I don't, I can't really read this guy's name, but his name is ravishing, Roof before it becomes successful, do either of you have a backup?
Starting point is 02:02:13 or were you fully invested in making comedy radio workout? So what was the backup? Fully invested, no backup, but never believed in a backup plan. I feel like it hurts you in a lot of ways. I think that you can protect yourself when you're going through something, but I only have one thing that I wanted to be. And I just put everything in that. So yeah, I don't really believe in like a backup career.
Starting point is 02:02:35 I believe in backup having some money saved. I believe in backup, you know, having some investments. But I don't believe in backup. I'll just do this other thing. because you let that creep in there and then you can't be totally focused on the thing you want to do. Yeah, I'd never had a backup plan either, simply because I didn't go to college. You know what I'm saying? I graduated from Berkeley High School in Mounts Corner, South Carolina in night school.
Starting point is 02:02:57 And so when I finally did get into radio, you know, doing an internship, it was everything to me. You know, I didn't, I didn't know anything else. I didn't go to trade school. I didn't have any other skills set. I was like, this is what I loved to do. And I didn't even know that you could make. millions of dollars in radio until I started studying the craft more. So, yeah, I didn't have a backup plan easy.
Starting point is 02:03:23 For me, it was radio, all and nothing, baby. All right, last one, Taylor. All right, from Maddie Mars. What are three things you can't live without during the quarantine time, not including family or your significant other? Not including family or my significant other. Wi-Fi? Wi-Fi, the studio where I record the podcast out of,
Starting point is 02:03:52 and my electric bicycle that I call a motorcycle. Yeah, for me, it's therapy, exercise, and technology. Exercise, good call. Yeah, therapy, exercise, and technology. Those are the three things that I can't live without. Those are the three things that are keeping me sane. When I say technology, I mean all of this. The fact that, you know, I have the mixer here
Starting point is 02:04:17 and I can, you know, broadcast and do the breakfast club in the morning. The fact that we're able to tap in and, you know, do the podcast via Zoom, you know, social media, you know, just for the interaction with people and the interaction with, you know, folks on Instagram live and just watching what's going on in the world. That's amazing. Being able to scream TV shows. I haven't checked out Quibi yet.
Starting point is 02:04:40 I'm going to check out Quibi. And yeah, you know, therapy for me is not only talking to my sacred purpose coach and talking to my therapist via phone or FaceTime or whatever it is, you know, it's really just that self-care of just being still and meditating, you know, because I keep telling everybody, man, we keep praying, you know, asking God to hear us. And that's not what this moment is about. This moment is about us hearing God. So, yeah. That's it. That's it, baby. We did it, man.
Starting point is 02:05:15 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 listen to this podcast and you think we're just a couple of idiots
Starting point is 02:05:23 and don't know shit, you're right, too. It's the brilliant of this podcast. Thank you for listening.
