Yep, Charlamina God.
Andrew's show.
You're all the Brilliant Idiot podcast.
Back for another week of Brilliant Idiotness.
And this week's episode is bought to you by Squarespace.
Make it big Taylor.
My eyes is not just what they used.
Let's start this show.
Hezzy!
What's up, man?
You're looking really patriotic.
I'm feeling patriotic today, man.
You look real patriotic.
I'm feeling like America's about to enter its next golden age,
and I'm feeling very excited about it, and everybody should be.
I don't see why people wouldn't be.
I knew deep down.
Everything went to.
a plan, huh? Everyone went to our plan, Charlotte.
It was not a plan.
Remember when we decided
on brilliant names, we're like, yo, you'll fake
support Kamala and then cause all this, like,
distraction and, you know, what is it? You stir up the water to
catch fish. You'll do all that. And then Trump will land
a plan, and then boom, we did it. That's not
what happened. I supported Kamala Harris.
But it doesn't matter at the end of the day, because
the president of the United States of America,
the 47 president,
is Donald J. Trump.
And I said this on Breakfast Club this morning,
like, you got it accepted.
Are you an American?
Now, walking out.
I was just leaving a...
Are you an American?
Are you not an American?
Damn, right, am I an American?
Why would I wish for America to fail?
Why would I want America to fail?
I'm just asking a simple question.
Thank you.
Thank you.
That's not a simple question.
Like, I don't want America to fail.
I have a life here.
I have businesses here.
I have a family here.
That's why would I want America to fail?
That's why we were wondering why you were supporting Kamala.
That's why we didn't understand it.
We're like, why is this guy throwing so much support her way?
When I know that he's a patriot, when I know he's a great man, I know that he wants America to win.
Everybody votes for their interests.
I have interest in Kamala, but I'm not going to root again.
Why would I root against the president?
That's what I'm talking.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I hope Trump doesn't do anything he said he's going to do.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Well, I hope he, there's only three things I hope Trump does.
Talk to me.
Why do you seem to keep up in people?
Because it sounds like, you know, it sounds like your squad.
He says he wants to lower taxes.
Do your thing, bro.
Thank you.
Okay.
Bagga.
He said he wants to fix the economy, even though inflation is already down.
Right.
Hey, do your thing.
Bagga.
Okay.
If he wants to make things more secure, build the wall, border.
Order it up.
Do your thing.
Do your thing, Wodey.
But you're going to need the Democrats
to help you do that, though.
Of course you do this.
It's going to take bipartisan legislation.
It's going to take bipartisan legislation.
Oh, they got the Senate in the House.
But they don't have the house yet.
But it's looking like they're going to have it.
So they really don't need the Democrats to do shit.
Amen.
So they're about to fix America and the Dems about to get no credit for it.
Well, here the thing.
Damn.
To your point, right?
Damn.
That sucks, y'all.
To your point, right?
To your point, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Now is the time for everybody who voted for Trump,
and I would say the same thing of Kamala win.
Everybody who voted for Trump,
you have to push him to do everything he promised he was going to do.
You can't let democracy no end once the person you vote for
and get inside the White House.
Facts.
You all have to constantly push him to do the things that you want them to do.
Stop the foreign wars.
Deport the criminals.
I would like a pathway to citizenship for the people.
people who are here illegally, but have been working jobs and have families, and I think that we should
know, they're going to have to come back. He's going to kick them out in January, and they're going
have to come back another way. I don't, I don't love that. That's going to happen. I want you to
start with the criminals. Let's see how that goes. Because it's almost, and I, John Stewart made this
point. I thought it was a valid point. John Stewart was like, you really think he's going to go through
a whole list of people and say, this person is a criminal, this person, this person, this person. He's
like, no, you're undocumented. You've got to go.
And then those people got to come back around and figure it out later.
Clearly, an attempt to deport between 30 and 500 million people is going to be complicated.
So it's going to be important to know how carefully the former president would execute this plan.
A lot of the millions of people have had children here who are American citizens.
So yes, to mass deportation, even of women and children.
So we're going to look at it very closely.
The way you phrase it is exactly right.
put one wrong person onto a bus or onto an airplane,
then your radical left lunatics will try and make it sound like the worst thing that's ever
happened.
Because it's the worst thing that ever happened to them.
The American citizens, you mistakenly deport.
Yet Trump is like, and then makes me the bad guy.
And why is my wife interviewing me?
You are my wife, right?
I don't know.
This sounds awful, but as everyone knows,
you can never listen to what Trump's saying and hear it.
I think you're taking everything a little bit too literally.
Look, Trump speaks in hyperbole.
This is nothing new.
He's telling you what was in his heart.
You always want to go by what's come out of his mouth rather than look at what's in his heart.
You're right.
Why hold former presidents to what they say they're going to do from their mouth holes?
It's going to be a lot of kicking and screaming come January, but, yeah, okay?
If this is the truth, it doesn't matter.
They said bad deportations on day one.
Wow.
Day one.
Yeah, that's a tricky one for me.
I think that we've got to find a place in our hearts.
Now, if you're a fucking criminal, you're breaking the law, get the fuck out.
But if there's somebody's been working here legally, and we've all had people, I'm sure,
work for us that were illegal, they're upstanding Americans.
I see them as Americans, and they should be given an opportunity.
He said he wanted a death penalty for, uh, what is what is he?
the immigrants who commit murder, I think it was,
illegal immigrants that commit murder?
Which one was it?
I'm okay with that.
Yeah, he said he wanted a death penalty for him.
But then he said if they deport you,
if you come back again,
it's 20 years and then if you try a third time,
then it's death penalty.
Run it up.
Hey, man.
Run it up.
We gotta have, what are you going to do?
Just have an open door?
Like, there's orders for a reason.
I mean, what'd you say, Alex?
So they're going to take...
No, crazy.
Well, what?
Chris still real.
Chris, when he saw my outfit, he said,
Don't do it.
But it's America.
I am you not proud of this,
the greatest country of the world.
We're about to enter our next golden age.
How are you not excited?
Listen, I don't know.
I'm actually like you were excited by Kamala Harris.
Fuck out of here.
I don't know what's going to happen.
Who's excited?
Look at the polls.
Look at the numbers.
Nobody.
Not nan, nobody.
Y'all were too relaxed.
What y'all didn't do is be less relaxed and hit the polls.
Listen, I mean, listen, here's the thing.
A lot of people lie.
That's just the reality of the situation.
But numbers don't.
That's right.
A lot of people lie.
There's a lot of people that said they was going to vote for Kamala Harris.
There's a lot of people that got pulled, that got pulled,
and they said they was going to vote for Kamala Harris.
It did not reflect that.
Nothing.
That map looked like it had his period.
Puerto Rico.
First day period.
First day.
Heavy flow.
It just did.
Like, it was the truth to the matter.
Like, I don't think she won't think she won't think she went a swing state.
Nope.
He did.
Philadelphia.
No.
Philadelphia's a state.
Pennsylvania's a state.
That's why she lost.
That's because they don't know.
It's a damn shame.
Did you vote?
Did you vote?
She lost Pennsylvania, Taylor.
She lost Pennsylvania.
I don't think she won one, at least right now, as of now.
We're recording this on, what's the day, Wednesday.
Yep.
The day after the election.
She hasn't won a swing state as of now.
No, she hasn't won.
No, she hasn't won one battleground state.
Not one.
Listen, a lot of people lied.
A lot of people said the day was going to vote for Kamala,
and they went in the booth and did something totally different.
Or they just didn't show up at all.
And I think that was the biggest issue with Kamala
is that the numbers were just way down.
Now, part of that is from the Democrats,
obviously rigging the election the last time.
We know that for 100% fact now.
No, they did.
They didn't win it, actually.
Not on.
I'm teasing.
I'm teasing. I'm team.
Somebody called the radio station this morning,
and they was like, stop to steal.
I'm like, cut it out.
No, no, no, no.
It's like, it was a free, fair election.
They won fair and square.
They won the popular vote.
They won the electoral college.
It is what it is.
They won the Senate.
The democracy.
You can't respect democracy only when you're side wins.
A lot of people are trying to chalk this up to, like, Trump populism, but we're talking
about it on flagrant.
It's just like, this is a rejection of leftist policy.
It's a rejection of leftist ideology.
And it's a rejection of Democrats not speaking to the issues that the majority of Americans
have. They went on the campaign trail, and they just gaslit Americans, and they said, oh, the
border's not really a problem, and I'm not actually going to do anything different than Biden.
The different, big issue.
Huge.
Big issue.
It's like, I caught a lot of shit last year when, you know, when the immigrants, illegal immigrants started
coming in, and then the Republicans were taking the illegal immigrants, putting them on buses,
putting them on planes, sending them the sanctuary cities, and then Democrats were like,
Stop, stop, stop, stop, enough.
I'm like, yo, y'all are the ones that built these sanctuary cities,
y'all are the ones that told them to come here,
so Republican sent them.
I thought that was, it was evil genius.
I said it didn't.
I thought what Rhonda Sanders and Greg Abbott was doing was evil genius.
Little did we know how much that was going to come back
to bite them in the ass come election time a whole year and a half later.
Huge.
A whole year and a half later.
And guess what?
All it takes some time is just to simply be like, hey,
why don't you experience?
Fucked up.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, we fucked up.
But they couldn't say that on the campaign trail.
And they just weren't addressing the issues that the American people felt strongly about.
And she wouldn't distance herself from Biden.
Like, she needed to throw Biden under the bus, below the bus, dig a fucking hole in the ground and put it into it.
And she refused to do it.
And maybe that was out of loyalty.
Maybe that was at a strategy.
But she needed to be like, that motherfucker fucked up.
This is how I'm going to do it.
And she didn't do that.
The biggest thing that they said, I saw people saying on the, they said that clip from the view.
when she was on the view and they asked her,
what would she do different than Biden?
She said nothing that I can think of.
Yeah.
He spent so much money running that ad
over and over and over and over and over
and all these battleground states.
And here's the problem with Democrats.
Said it a million times.
They don't know how to message.
Did Biden and Harris do some good things
while they was in the White House?
Sure.
Yes, they did.
But they don't know how to message it.
They don't know how to tell people
the good things that they did.
Also, people don't want to be told the good things
while they're hurting.
When you're foot hurts,
Nobody wants to be like, but your hand is okay, right?
Motherfucker, we're not talking about my hand.
Talking about my foot.
Right.
And the American people were very specific about the issues that they had.
I've said this a million times.
When you're saying things like the economy is better, right?
And then you say, look at the stock market.
The people that are complaining about the economy not being good don't even have no fucking stops.
Don't even know what the fuck is going on.
I'm from a rural area in Monk County, South Carolina.
On the dirt road.
You understand what I'm saying?
Like, I'm not like the moment.
I know it well.
We were doing this podcast for him with 11 years.
Population hasn't changed in 11 years.
Ain't nobody fucking.
Nobody.
Roe v. Wade is alive and well in most Florida in Florida.
It's like 12.13 now.
Oh, wow.
God damn.
My point is those.
Migrants.
Those people, people like that in those rural areas,
they're not thinking about no stocks.
They think about how they put food on their table today.
How much is bread?
And listen, Trump spoke to people's grievances.
That's the thing.
And I think that, you know, I was having to be.
this conversation last night because we did the broadcast from the, from Howard University.
And it was me and Envy and Lauren LaRosa and the Native Land podcast, Andrew Gillum,
and LaRae, Tiffany Cross.
And Tiffany was just saying how, you know, people are just stupid, right?
She was like, this just shows how ignorant people are and people, you know, they're not intellectuals.
And I go, look, you don't have to be smart to know that you can't pay your rent.
You won't have to be smart to know that you can't afford these groceries.
And I will say something controversial that I,
disagreeing with Charlemagne about
him speaking to the poor and this is what people
care about. I'm going to say something
that people don't like to hear. What's that?
Most people in this country
are not intellectually
curious about a lot of things. And I
think Trump's rise to power
has coincided with the
dumbing down of the American electorate
and the confluence of things that led to that
if you ask most people, where are you
getting your information from? Most people
are not reading papers. Most people are not even
curious enough to read a website of
But it's fair. It's also fair.
It's the fact that he's saying immigrants are come and taking your jobs.
But you can look and see if that information is true or not.
Like, I read probably eight papers every day.
But there are things that I, when you read the article and then you see what's on television,
it is a snapshot of something.
Yeah, but people don't see that.
They'll see schools are closed because immigrants are staying in the school.
Hotels of immigrants and stay.
But you're missing one thing.
You don't have to be intelligent to know that you can't eat.
I agree with that.
Because in real life, I don't have had the time to do this
because you're trying to figure out, okay, bet.
So when all those people that voted for Barack Obama did it,
it was because they were smart and they were intellectuals.
And when the same people voted for Trump, this election,
is because they're stupid.
So they just got stupider over time.
Like, explain that.
Listen, man.
It's not like we got a new population.
Oh, you're right.
The same people that she's calling stupid were smart for voting for.
Maybe it's because Barack
ran a campaign
that spoke to, what's that?
Open change and spoke to
the things that people wanted. She didn't run that.
She ran a horrible campaign, bro.
She ran a great campaign. For what it is. You got to think it was a hundred.
It literally was a hundred day. For a hundred day
campaign to be thrust in that position
because you got a guy, she's
you got a guy who's running off
ego. You got a guy who
was clearly just being selfish.
You got a guy who was clearly just
power hungry. I know everybody wants to say Biden is a hero. I can't look at it like that.
The reason I can't look at it like that is because, yo, you won the election. The first thing
you should have said was like, look, I'm only here for four years. So y'all already, y'all,
y'all get ready. Okay? Get ready. Or 18 months ago when we were saying, this guy is not going
to make it until November. This guy is not going to win an election in November. He should
have told them way, way, way back when? Look, I'm not running again, yo.
So y'all figure this out. So y'all can do a primary, get the best candidate, whatever it is.
He didn't do that.
No amount of time would have changed it.
Because at the end of the day, she's still Kamala Harris.
No, no, I'm not saying even for her.
I'm just saying they could have did a primary and they could have picked the candidate.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That somebody would have wanted, you know what I'm saying?
Maybe she would have got it.
Maybe it would have been Markelly.
Maybe it would have been Josh Perry.
I don't know.
I'm just saying.
They didn't have a superstar.
She's not a superstar.
It's just what it is.
They tried to do their best to hide the fact.
You need a superstar to be Trump.
Exactly.
That's just because he's a superstar with you.
Like it or not, you might disagree with him.
He is an undeniable super star.
Why are you saying that, though?
Because he lost Biden.
Biden's not a superstar.
I keep telling you, because it was serious.
The only election that the Democrats have won in the last 20 years was Barack Obama or Barack Obama's VP.
People voted for Joe Biden because we were in love with Barack Obama.
Don't get interested how incredible Barack Obama was and how in love with Barack Obama we were.
Barack was, and I mean, you saw him on the campaign trail?
It was unbelievable watching.
He's a superstar.
I think, and I've said it on, I've said it a million times.
I think Joe Biden won in 2020 because of a series of unfortunate events.
Because of COVID, because of the George Floyd protest, all of these different things.
I think without those things, Joe Biden does not win in 2020.
I agree.
Mail in.
But so how does he win this time?
He said what?
How does he win this time?
Because people remember how they felt in 2020.
They just remember how they felt.
Because people are done with democratic policy.
Because it's not just Trump, right?
Like the DA and L.A.
got removed, Gaston, this guy,
who put in a lot of, like, Democrat policies
that people hold responsible for the city
not being what it used to be.
So people in general were rejecting
Democrat policies.
They were rejecting, rejecting left-wing ideology.
And that's why Trump won the popular vote,
and that's why they won the Senate.
That's why they're probably going to win the House.
It's not like this was a flood.
But they had a lot of white,
Senate Democratic candidates who outperformed
Kamala. White Senate?
They had a lot of white
Democrats who ran for the Senate who did outperform.
What does that be? I'm missing by them being white
is important. I don't know. They just was white.
I'm just saying that's what they're labeled at.
With a lot of them did outperforms common. And you had the governor,
the governor of North Carolina is a Democrat. He won.
Right?
Yep. Yeah, yeah.
So I mean, I, I don't think, I don't think none of your point.
which is wrong, but I just don't think it's one thing.
I think it's a bunch of
different things that caused
Democrats to be in a position that they're in now.
I also think, like, horrible strategy at the end of the
campaign. Like,
I thought at the end of the campaign,
the, the Comley campaign was very
specific at the last month. It was like,
we just want black people to come out.
And that's the only people they targeted.
It was the only podcast they did. It was the only media
they did. Oh, wow.
She was out there with Liz Cheney the most.
Let's chat with her favorite in the last month.
That was the worst.
decision the Democrats ever. Now that might be, now that I agree with. But that's a separate
argument. Like, because, and we were talking about this one player, but like, here's a perfect
example. People talk about, like, how Republican, uh, Trump is, right? Who's, uh, who's Trump
surrounded by? Does name, name me the names. Who are Trump's people? POSY Gabbard, RFK
Jr., RFK Jr., lifelong Democrat. Lerone Musk. Lifelong Democrat. Vevac, voted for
Obama. On and on and on, it's just Democrats surrounding them, homeless Democrats, Democrats, Democrats,
that used to be lifelong Democrats
and then the Democratic Party left them.
So now they find this other...
You got a breadth of the Republican Party
who just falls in line with them.
Exactly.
Now you have...
Who is the biggest surrogate,
like you said in the last month for Kamala?
Liz Cheney.
The worst possible name
that you could attach to a politician in history.
Sheaney.
I think they invested too much money
into trying to court white women.
Trying to court Republicans.
I don't think they...
I don't think they invested enough
money into their base. I don't think
they did enough to go
after their base. But the base still showed up, though.
Can't act like the base didn't show up. Black men
showed up and black women showed up. It was white men,
white women, and Latinos.
Latinos showed up for Trump. But also
she didn't do it. More than half. Yes, more than half of Latinos
voted for Trump. Yeah, of course.
So, but they're the ones who caused her to the election.
But they didn't speak to white people or Latinos the last month.
She only... No! No!
Listen, these are the...
She spoke to white women with the Caller Daddy podcast.
Oh, you're talking about this with the podcast.
Yeah.
Oh, no, I'm talking about the ground.
I'm talking about the ground game.
No, no, I'm talking about the media that she's done, right?
Gotcha, got you got it.
So she did The Color Daddy, that's White Women.
After that, she does Breakfast Club.
She does...
No, she did Brene Brown.
I don't know who that is.
Big, huge white woman.
Huge White Woman podcast.
I don't know.
Yes, Collar Daddy, Brunay Brown.
But she does...
The Smoke.
She did all the Smoke.
She did The View.
View is white women and black women.
She did Fox.
She did CNN.
She did a lot.
I think.
What are the other pods?
Oh, just pod?
Yeah.
Podge.
She did Alex Cooper,
Braynene Brown,
All the Smoke,
Club Shayshay.
Um,
that's it.
Maybe there's more.
Felt to me like a specific,
first of all,
it felt like there was no outreach
to young men at all.
Like,
especially non-black young men,
like zero.
And so I'm not exactly shocked
when I saw that
they did not come out for her at all.
She could have went
on the biggest platform
in the world
and the biggest platform for black people in the world,
which is the Joe Rogan podcast,
and she chose not to do it.
And I think that that was a very foolish, foolish, foolish.
Fun facts.
Yes.
You know, Deadline did an article,
and they, like, the biggest winners and losers
of the 2024 political media cycle, right?
Yeah.
And they had me as a big winner.
They had Rogan as a loser.
I totally disagree with that.
Rogan, those, the three he did,
the Trump, JD fans,
Elon Musk.
come on
like that's like
and I heard
I heard so many people
talking about the Elon.
I didn't listen to the Elon Muskman.
I heard so many people
talking about the Elon Musk but that week
I had people saying to me
yo
that Elon Muskman
he was saying some shit
like he was saying some real shit
he might like I might fuck with
Don't be fool
people were voting for Elon
even though Trump is the person
that they
what's it called wrote in on the bubble
they're voting for
fact that Elon's going to be involved in that administration.
Oh, I can see that.
100%.
Somebody told me one of my guys that was looking this week,
he can't vote because he's not from here, but he...
Damn, what if my guy doesn't get the poor of the January?
He's not from here.
But he was saying how, like, he like RFK.
You know what I'm saying?
So he might rock with Trump because of RFK.
He can't vote, but he was just saying,
I would like to see what the RFK does in that administration.
I also think there's another thing.
I think this is very important because we're talking about legacy media versus new media, right?
And you understand this because you've done radio.
And I think radio has always, radio has always done this.
Pull up that deadline on it.
This is a good, this is good.
I like this.
And here's the difference that I see.
I saw Kamala doing a lot more traditional media, legacy media, if you will.
Okay.
Now, Trump did it as well.
Don't get me wrong.
She definitely avoided doing the podcast run.
They avoided our podcast.
She avoided Rogan.
She avoided tons of big podcasts.
She went on, you know, a few shows.
But the value of sitting down with people for a long time is that you get to start to build a connection with these people, right?
She went on SNL.
They did a sketch.
It might be watched by more people than anywhere in the world.
Yeah, but sketch was great, though.
But here's the reality.
And there are comedians on SNL, right, that are hilarious comedians.
They might not be able to sell out a comedy club for a weekend.
And they're on the biggest comedy platform in the world because the reality is getting people to leave their house to support you is about connection.
As someone in radio for fucking 20 years, you understand that.
You've built connection with people.
Every day, daily.
Exactly.
Legacy media, these TV shows are not about building connection.
They're about selling pharmaceutical ads.
that is the goal of the show.
How can I sell your next depression pill?
How can I sell your next Restless Leg Syndrome pill, et cetera?
So you're in a situation where Trump is going on these pods for long amounts of time,
building connectivity with these people and talking to people who are really trusted with their audience.
That's going to make somebody leave the house,
just like it makes our supporters and fans leave the house when we do our comedy shows.
I think that is the difference between legacy media and new media.
New media is about connection with the fans.
Legacy media came from a time where simply being on TV or simply being famous was enough to get people to go see you.
And those days are done.
Yeah, it's interesting, right?
Because even when you talk about new media, I think that there's a difference between people who, you know, like there's a lot of these platforms.
They might get a lot of crazy, crazy numbers, but you've got to have actual influence, right?
And the way you get influences by engaging with people.
I think that there's another new, new level of media,
which I think is the stream was they do what radio does.
They're on there every day.
They're talking with people.
Yeah.
They're not just talking.
When we drop it, when we put out brilliant idiots, we're talking to them.
To them.
We're not talking with you.
We're not talking with them.
We're talking to them.
So people are watching this right now,
and they're enjoying watching me and Andrew talk.
They get in the comments and talk shit and hope we see it.
Right.
You know what I mean?
But they don't actually get to engage with radio.
in the stream with they get to engage.
That shit forms a different level.
Think about the bond.
And you see it.
Oh my God.
You see it when like you see there's that streamer speed.
You see him go around the world and people lose their fucking minds for this kid.
That's right.
So they're building that deep connectivity.
There are people that are on incredibly famous legacy media shows that can walk around New York City or any other city in the world and nobody will fucking recognize them, bother them, even care.
They know they're famous, but it doesn't move the needle.
J-Lo doesn't move the needle.
doesn't move the needle. The famous celebrities don't move the needle. We still see them as famous.
It's still exciting to see them, but they no longer have the same influence as someone who has a
deep connection to their audience. I thought about that too, because we were having a conversation
about do celebrities move the needle? At first I said no, but then I said, hmm, actually probably
yes, it's just that celebrity is different now. So.
Joe Rogan's a celebrity. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Aidan Ross is of the way.
world, the people, flagrant, the deal of, like, those are considered the celebrities now,
but they're also the influence, because that's why you used to go, people go to celebrities
for what? Influence.
Yep.
Now you have actual influences, yeah, yeah.
Influences.
So I think that those celebrities do still move to needle.
I just think that celebrity is different.
And I think that there's something, too, if your grievance is the economy, right?
If your grievance is, you know, it's not enough money in your pocket.
you don't want nobody
Rich telling you what to do
Now why they fall for the billionaire Elon Musk
I don't know
He's an anomaly
It's hope
You see what this guy's been able to accomplish
And you hope that he applies that same
Success to the government to the economy
So that you can be successful
Just like his business is he getting deported?
Definitely not
That motherfucker's safe
He's not going nowhere
Elon not getting to Portage, Joe.
Elon can do whatever he wants.
Scroll up, Taylor,
what show said made me think about something
because I was looking at, you know,
Dominique,
uh,
Dominique from Deadline did this article.
Hold on, scroll up, scroll up, scroll up, scroll up, scroll up, scroll up, scroll up, scroll up,
scroll up, scroll up.
No, okay.
Yeah, loser.
Broadcast networks, make that bigger.
He said, Dominique said,
the reach of the news divisions of ABC, NBC, and CBS is way, way,
way down and prestige.
last, what does that say?
And prestige last meant something in the Reagan area.
Oh, all of which means, for the most part,
the broadcast networks were side players
and the drama of this year's election.
Yes, ABC saw massive viewership numbers
out of its multi-outled simulcasted September
10th debate between the VP and the former POTUS,
yet none of that was seen on ABC
by the millions who subscribed to direct TV
as Disney was in a contract dispute
with the satellite provider at the time.
CBS has gotten more attention for Trump ranting
about revoking its license over edits made
to a 60 Minutes interview with Harris,
than anything in that interview
or anything else the network
has done this election.
Somewhere in the heavens,
Walter Cronkite is wiping away a tear.
So I look at this and I think two things.
If I'm running for president,
I don't think you leave any stone unturned.
You've got to do it all.
I think you got, I've said it a million times.
Back in the day, you build it, they would come.
Now, you got to meet people where they are, bro.
Everywhere.
Like, you got to.
to go everywhere.
Legacy media.
Yes.
There's also,
Mark had a good point about this.
It was like,
there's different demographics.
Older people still watch legacy media.
They're not watching a podcast.
Mark got that from me.
I said that on the pod.
I said that on the pod.
He got that from me.
My motherfucker got that from me.
My motherfuckerater, right?
I see in Trump's America what people do?
I'm just saying, you got that?
I said that here.
But yeah, you're right.
It's like, in, in Trump's America,
like, you basically can do whatever you want
and have all this success
that you dream of.
This is not Trump's America.
This is the people's America.
And the people voted for Trump.
But don't ever forget,
don't, we're not going,
don't get caught up in the code of personality.
Trump works for you.
You voted for him.
He works for you.
All right.
Tell Trump that.
But see, that's fucked up.
It shouldn't be that way.
Yo, you know what,
Charlemagne?
You better watch your tongue.
Man, y'all bet you.
Don't get caught up in the corner.
Watch your tongue.
Trump works for you.
y'all and you better push him.
Absolutely.
The next four years, hopefully it's just four.
I'm putting four in quotation marks.
That's what I'm saying. Right.
Right.
Hey, if it's going good.
See?
No, no, if it's going to be good.
What are you confused about that?
Because you're saying in 2020 is how it's
how it's in 2020, but people hated
how the country was.
Who hated how the country was?
That's when the pandemic started.
You wasn't in Florida.
You wasn't in Georgia.
He wasn't in South where these people was outside.
Living life.
And PPP loans was everywhere.
Flourishing.
Stimby checks.
Oh.
Stimby checks.
Everybody.
I could drive you through Mous Corner right now and point and say he bought that trailer with PPP.
Yep.
I'm not even joking.
I got family members that I tell all the time.
You're going to jail.
They're coming for you.
But why do people think?
They're coming.
We were in a pandemic.
Why people think that's about to be the same?
You're right.
That doesn't make sense to me.
You're absolutely right.
But that's what happens when people aren't informed.
They think in their mind...
They know that we're not in...
Like, there doesn't make it.
There are many other reasons.
They've seen their cities deteriorate.
Now, the cause of that deterioration
is what the single cause is unknown.
It might be many different causes.
It might be implementation of plans that were not Democrat.
It actually, Republican, it might.
Who knows?
But what they know is,
under democratic jurisdiction,
their cities have gotten worse
and they don't want it anymore.
Take that shit up with your local government.
They did.
That's why they replaced them.
Yeah, take that shit up with your local government.
But they did.
They got them out of there.
The DAs got flipped.
And Cali, right?
Yeah.
Go to the podcast part of this Taylor,
this deadline article.
Oh, this was good, too.
He said billionaire.
I found this very interesting.
But she just said every liberal person's a winner
and every Republican is a lot.
Oh, no.
Hell no.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no.
That's not true.
I thought that too.
When I read the article,
that's what I was thinking
in the beginning
when I first started reading it.
But no,
because another person I feel like
they said was a loser on here
that they shouldn't know
was John Stewart.
Because they said that,
go to the John Stewart part.
Elon's a loser.
They said TikTok's a loser.
Go back to the podcast.
No, he said TikTok's a winner.
Beyonce's the MVP.
What the fuck?
How the fuck is Beyonce
the MVP of this?
What the fuck does she?
She walks on stage for three minutes
doesn't do shit to sway the election or motivate voters.
And she's the MVP.
And I'm supposed to take this seriously in this article?
Yes, because I'm the fucking number one winner.
That's why.
All right.
I stopped reading after that.
It says the podcast.
Trump says his teenage son, Baron,
has been advising him on podcast to reach traditionally non-voting audiences.
If true, Barron is looking pretty smart in both campaigns.
From the laughing and mocking host of Flagrant to bust in with the boy,
What's busting with the boys?
It's two ex-football players.
Oh, Willempton and Taylor Wing?
Yeah.
Okay.
To the oddly touching back and forth with Theo Vaughn and, of course, Rogan,
Trump took the lead and found welcoming safe places
that had a much more direct and unmanicured route
to voters than 60 minutes are another debate.
As proven by the VP's appearance on Carr, Daddy, with Alex Cooper,
and club shay-shay with Shannon Sharp,
not to mention the radio purchase of Howard Stern and the Breakfast Club,
the power of podcasts are something on which both candidates agree to selection.
Now, winner is podcast.
Losers is late night.
John Stewart came back to work
to Monday shift on The Daily Show
after hosting waiting, Assam Minaj
was unfairly given the media equivalent
of a wedgy by the New Yorker.
But who really cares?
Certainly not Harris or Trump,
as neither of them showed up
on the Comedy Central show.
Show the VP was with Stephen Colbert
on October 8th and on SNL this past weekend,
but otherwise, late night was pretty much
a no upside of risk
for the tightly scripted Harris
in the whirlwind campaign.
As for Trump, forget about it.
Been there, done that.
the jokes. Now, I disagree
with that. I think John Stewart
came back and did fantastic
work, and I think he's been doing
fantastic work because
John Stewart is a lot like
podcasters, personalities.
He has an audience that he talks
directly to him. And they listen
to him and they believe him. You don't
have to sit down and interview a
candidate to have
that kind of impact. I think
Dominique, you got that one.
You didn't get that one right.
I need to read this Beyonce MVP.
Let me hear it.
Let me hear it.
I didn't read it.
Let me see.
MVP, winner Beyonce.
Taylor Swift delivered her endorsement of the VP as the September 10th debate when Trump ended,
but it was Queen Bee who has proved essential to the Harris campaign.
Beyonce's 2016 tune Freedom is the VP's walk-on music at those well-attended rallies.
32-time Grammy won a supposedly donated $4 million to Harris campaign in his first days this summer.
Beyonce never showed up at the DNC despite those absurd whispers.
She would be there on the closing night in Chicago, saving the best almost for last.
the Texas Holam singer showed up in her hometown of Houston on October 26
with her ex-Destiny's child bandmate Kelly Rowland
to introduce the VP, unlike Barack Obama's second inauguration.
Beyonce didn't sing at the rally,
co-starring Willie Nelson,
but her words of a new song for America to sing
was music to the Harris campaign.
That makes her the MVP.
Dominique, I love you because you wrote something
that was accurate about my boy,
because we both agree, he is the fucking man.
But Dominique, how the fuck is that making her the MVP?
I mean, come on.
Yeah, I don't.
She's, she's the MVP because she allowed her to use her song
as the walkout for her rallies.
You want to know the problem with this article?
What's that?
Kamala loss.
Yeah.
That is the problem.
That is the problem with this.
You're right.
Kamala wins.
You ain't arguing about Beyonce.
You're not talking about how Taylor Swift really don't got it like that.
Now we, now we're a country.
Now, now we're a country.
Now, now we.
We found unity.
We found unity.
Now we got it.
Okay, give me that shit, right.
Somebody gonna clip this one part.
I know.
Now we're a country.
Watch.
Magga at the top.
Okay.
But for real, Taylor Swift really don't got the,
she don't really got the juice like that.
She don't.
I mean, neither does Beyonce, but Taylor really don't.
Like, neither of them do.
That's crazy.
They got nothing.
Taylor's fans are like, yo, go, go and shut up and dance.
Teller friends are saying, shut up and strong.
By the way, Taylor didn't even really commit.
Yo, she didn't.
I think Beyonce props.
Didn't.
She did it.
She failed on the last one.
There was like one thing that she was in Pennsylvania.
You did a look at Instagram post.
She knew.
But you didn't show up, show up.
Taylor, I think she's.
Great, you got to her.
Somebody, I'm telling you, somebody said to her, look.
It's not her name, right?
Brittany Moehm.
Brittany Mahomes.
No, no, no, no, they ain't Britney.
Travis Kelsey.
Somebody around Taylor said, Taylor.
I'm going to show you this quote from Michael Jordan.
She was looking for this quote.
And this quote says, Republicans buy shoes too.
And somebody said to Taylor Taylor, we've done some analytics.
It ain't looking good, Shraddy.
I know you might think these people over here, you're like, base.
This is your base.
Cat ladies.
And she disappeared.
You didn't see nothing from Taylor.
Disappeared.
Disappeared.
Nothing.
Menopause.
Come on, yo.
Am I on you?
Support went on.
Beyonce showed up.
Beyonce did a speech.
Barely.
Hey, she showed up.
Ain't nobody paying to hear, Beyonce.
Taylor did nothing.
We need to hear you sing.
If Beyonce would have sang on that stage, bro.
Nah, she was singing the whole time.
She had freedom.
No, but if she sang on that stage,
I, it might, hey.
God damn, bro.
No, I'm Captain America, but.
God damn, bro.
Listen, Chris, grab the mic, Chris.
Chris, why haven't spoken at all?
You all Solomon.
Chris, grab the mic, Chris.
Come on, Chris.
You know why.
Come on, Chris.
We need you, Chris.
Who do you think can protect Taiwan from China?
Not Kamala.
Chris.
Donnie T.
What do you want me to say?
Let's be serious for a say.
Say you love that.
We want.
Do we not want to?
the best for America. Of course. That's why I'm upset today. Okay. You didn't believe in Kamala,
bro. Stop. I'm not talking about Kamala. Thank you, though. Thank you. I appreciate it.
No, okay. Kamala did the best she could with what she had. Salute to Kamala. She was the
option. But stop acting like she's the star. I'm not talking about Kamala. I'm talking about
Trump. Okay, okay. He's an existential threat to the country. He's a threat to democracy. We've had it
too good for too long. We forget.
what's really at stake how quickly we can lose a grip on this thing,
and we're about to find out.
And that's very scary to me.
Well, let's not wish for that.
And I certainly don't wish for that.
Yeah, I'm not, I don't want.
Hey, listen, everything you're talking about,
I'm not that far from Trump on immigration.
I'm not, all right, let's see, I can't do this.
Oh, Chris, what I mean?
Chris, you can't be that tricking.
Yes, I can.
Yes, I can.
You're asking this fucking barista from Bushwick
to ask questions on brilliant idiots,
the American podcast for America.
Like, what the fuck's going on it?
You got some Canadian lady sitting in a seat behind the camera asking him questions about
America on Brilliant Idiot's American Podcast for Americans.
He are here as Patriots.
So I talk about why America's great.
That's what we try to do over here.
You got a hairstylist from Hoboken talking about random-ass shit.
Chris, talk about brilliant idiots, the American podcast for America.
History will judge me as the patriot today.
I have no question about that.
I'm not mad at Chris.
All I'm simply saying is I'm just trying to be optimistic.
As I said earlier, I hope Donald Trump does nothing he said he's going to do.
No, no, no.
You want him to make America.
I'm talking about the wild shit.
Like, you know how people will say things like, oh, that's just him riling people up.
You want a great economy, though.
Of course.
You want to stop the senseless wars.
Of course.
You want to stop the anti-Semitism.
The census is all.
By the way, as soon as this war is not going to stop.
Oh, he's going to put a stop to that.
No.
He already said he told, he told, he told, he told, he told, he said, told Netanyahu,
Biden's holding you back.
He said, go get it done.
Oh!
So, he said it.
Did he not say that, Chris?
Woo!
It's not good.
What does that mean?
What does that mean, Chris?
But.
I don't know.
What does that mean?
He said, he's, he's.
I mean, look, I think a lot of people who, uh, I mean, look, my, my big takeaway from this election is
Congratulations to Mr. Putin.
I believe that a lot of this was about misinformation.
Get the shield.
Not the election, though, Chris.
They won the election fair in square.
Oh, I'm not questioning who voted for who.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm not saying the election.
Can you not fathom that the American people were tired of democratic rule and the democratic
policy?
I don't, I know for a fact they were.
Not a way.
Look, I talked to my father today.
Again, lifelong Republican, right?
I said, what happened?
The identity politics, it's happening too fast.
This is his take.
It's happening too fast.
People don't want it at the speed.
The trans issue is very.
They don't want to see, yeah, they don't want to see,
they don't want to meet up women for medals.
Right.
He said, I got two old women in my building, older than him.
He's in his 80s.
Yeah.
Their number one issue is the trans issue.
I get it.
It's a non-bucking issue.
It doesn't affect anybody.
It's just to deflect.
It affects an election.
Well, but that's my point.
Like, it's, it affects an election.
This is what coastal elites do.
I did it when I was younger.
Anything that doesn't affect us is a non-issue.
It doesn't affect.
And we speak about it like that.
And even the messaging now I'm seeing coming out with the left,
they're like, it's all like white people and uneducated people to vote for Trump.
It's like, yo.
You don't even, listen, by the way,
yo.
Hey, I'm uneducated.
I didn't go to college.
But guess what?
Even if you're uneducated, like I said earlier,
you know if your grocery bills to,
you guys. Thank you. You know if you evicted. To your point, Chris, I do think the trans
issue is really a non-issue, but it's effective in an election. Oh, I get it. That's not a
non-issue. It's effective. It's so minuscule compared to the more serious issues facing
this. That's because neither your kids are trans. No, no, no, no. If one of your kids-
commercial. What are you saying? You got so compassionate.
It's because none of your kids are trans.
He's talking about the commercial that Trump ran over and over that had me an envy in it.
Oh, yeah.
Where it said the thing about taxpayer dollars going to transgender inmates.
Yeah, we don't want that.
We don't want that.
That's my point.
Nobody was thinking about that.
Crime is a real issue.
We were thinking about the sports.
Immigration is a real issue.
The economy is real.
Friends and women's sports and the women's right?
It doesn't.
Well, no, no, we got to get to that.
anybody is what I'm saying.
Yeah, I don't know if trans and women's sports.
Explain me how it affects.
It's not a table issue.
Psychologists, the trans women's sports is a table issue.
Like, people talk about it.
We discussed it, but it's not really, it's not really impacting anything.
No, no.
Makes you feel.
Yeah.
It makes them look crazy.
Yes.
It makes you be able to say, look how ridiculous these mothers are.
You're right.
It's not a first issue.
You're right.
The first issue is economy.
The first issue is like safety.
The first issue.
Climate.
No, climate's not even close.
the first issue of those things
and then afterwards to justify
how crazy they are they're like
and they got women
they got men beating up women for gold medals
yes right so I think that is
but there are also issues
you know in a with with children
right now where I believe it was Megan Kelly
was talking about this and she basically said
that the
essentially what psychologists
and school psychologists are supposed to do
right now is when children have gender issues
is a firm so that is
what is considered
I don't want to call it the rule,
but there is a version for psychological care
where that is the protocol.
So the protocol is to affirm.
And the reality is that when kids are going through different times,
their emotions are a little tricky.
Obviously, you're going through puberty,
and you have a lot of things going through your system.
You're like, fuck, am I gay?
Am I depressed? Am I sad?
Do I have anxiety?
I'm not comfortable with the idea of a kid.
Look, I'm not experiencing my own family,
but I'm experiencing it in a family I know.
For sure.
So let me get it all out.
So the idea is,
a kid goes into their guidance counselor and then they essentially go like,
I think I'm trans, right?
Because now that's an option and that's something that's heavily rewarded
within schools.
And now that person right there who is administering the care has to affirm that.
They can't push back on that.
They go, yes, you are.
That's okay.
It's normal to have these feelings.
Now, I'm not saying you have to push back and say you definitely aren't.
But maybe there's a little wiggle room where you could explore these feelings that you're
having, right?
And I think it's normal for parents to look at that, especially parents with kids.
kids that are vulnerable to these things.
I don't want nobody in school talking to my kids about this shit.
Well, that's the other thing.
If my kids are going through that,
I want them to be coming to me with that conversation.
I don't want them talking to nobody else.
And if they do address that with somebody,
I want to teach you to stop right there and be like,
hey, I validate your feelings, but let's talk to your parents first.
And then what would you do if they told you, give him the D. Wade statue?
This guy.
This guy.
Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte.
Just get it out.
Cutting, you show you up.
But did you see the statue?
Do you know what he's saying in the statue?
Do you know what he's saying?
This guy, he's really, you know what he said?
Really, he's going like this.
He's going, he's really?
Maga!
That's the day?
Is that the day?
Oh, what's she saying?
I grew up a middle class.
Thank you all.
Thank you.
How would that how would do?
Is this happening right now or this already happened?
So let me say, and I love you back.
Tomlin did not terrible.
And I love you back.
So let me say, my heart is full today.
She's not a perfect candidate.
Nobody is.
My heart is full today.
Full of gratitude for the trust you have placed in me, full of love for our country, and full of resolve.
The outcome of this election is not what we wanted, not what we fought for, not what we voted for.
not what we voted for
but hear me when I say
hear me when I say
the light
of America's promise
will always burn bright
you gotta have it
you gotta have the light bro
the light of you've earned the promise
as long as we never give up
and as long as we keep
fighting
oh she's trying January 60th
No, people.
Daniel 6, bro.
Oh, I see you.
No.
I see you.
No.
But we're going to be there.
You have to fight to make sure that these politicians do what they say they're going to do.
Whoever you elected.
November, yesterday, whatever the day was, you have to fight to make sure that they're going to do what they're going to do.
You know what I was shocked about this election though?
And Taylor brought it up before.
I thought that the Roe v. Wade was going to play a much bigger...
I did too.
Because as a woman...
I'm gonna stop giving a fuck about shit
y'all don't give a fuck about.
Right, though?
Like, we all here giving the fuck about truth in the body.
I can't believe it.
It just doesn't make no sense to me.
Because it's literally her being a woman,
regardless, like, is something to see as a woman myself
and a black woman's stuff, like, going up against, you know,
being a president and everything.
So now...
I know what you're trying to say,
because I've heard a bunch of people say that
in the last 24 hours.
What Taylor is saying is when you watch a qualified black woman like this
lose to the executive producer of celebrity apprentice
And this is the second time we've seen this happen
Because we saw a super qualified woman like Hillary Clinton do it
And now you see it happen to Kamala
That she makes you feel away
Right Taylor?
No, that's not what she meant
What did she mean?
She didn't mean that
That's exactly what she meant
She just did
Taylor what did you want to see right there
You wanted to see
Aw
That's exactly
I don't think that's what she meant.
Yes, it is.
Taylor, what's wrong, yo?
Are you getting emotional about that?
Yes.
Women are emotional about this.
I told you that, especially black women.
They are upset about this.
Damn, bro.
Is there a song we want to play?
Shut up.
Go to the freaky ref, Taylor.
Go to the freaky ref.
What's the freaky ref?
Oh, wait for you see this shit.
You ain't see this shit yet?
No.
Oh, my God.
Hold on, why is, why can, I think we need to acknowledge that Taylor's feeling something right now.
And I think that we should be there for her.
I want to be there for you.
Oh, now I feel bad.
What?
I feel bad because Alex is such a dickhead.
He made Taylor cry.
What?
Seriously.
I'm trying to make Taylor cry.
I'll just decide.
Women are very tender about this.
Because once you, you got to think, Donald Trump literally did everything possible to lose this election.
Like, Huffton Post had the best headline.
Huffington Post said he ran a campaign.
He ran the most racist campaign in modern day history.
And smoked it.
Didn't just win.
Smoked it.
How was it racist?
Oh, cut it out.
What?
Smoked it.
How is it racist?
Nobody falling for that shit no more.
How is it not?
Haitians eating cats and dogs.
Hey, racist.
There's white Haitians.
Man, shut up.
Why do you guys immediately assume black
That's racist to y'all.
Here the thing.
You don't even have to do this anymore.
What you mean?
He won.
I mean, and smoked shit.
Okay?
He wanted.
All right.
Now, here's the thing, though.
And I want y'all to be remembered this.
Me too.
It's up to him to maintain that energy
because we know how fickle Americans are
getting that White House and don't do none of this shit you said you're going to do.
Upset.
They're going to flip on them.
He's not going to care.
He's in there already.
He doesn't got to run again.
We're not going to give a fuck.
We are going to make America have another golden age.
Well, I think this.
And I hope you guys all enjoy the prosperity.
Why would we?
Let's enjoy it together.
I hope that's the case.
But I think he's going to use this four years to get as rich as he motherfucking can
and to drop all charges against them.
And he wants to go.
No, no.
He said the charge,
he said within six minutes.
No, I know.
He's firing Jackson.
And then somebody.
He was CNN was like, well, and I know technically he can't do it because he's the president.
His attorney general got to do it.
But guess what?
His attorney general is going.
Yeah.
There's no charges.
I'm talking about charges.
The charges are done.
It's a wrap.
Cut it out.
He's just going to try to get as rich as he can in his next four years.
That was not wrong.
That's it.
That's all he's going to do.
Chris, give a fuck.
No, listen.
He showed that during the first four, he ain't do, hardly.
Anything he said he was going to do during the first four?
That's his entire career.
Do we just have some positivity?
I hope.
No, I hope what you're saying is true.
Why would you want to believe this?
I do.
I do.
I'm not, I want the realism.
Hey, I mean, listen, I've lived through eight years of Ronald Reagan.
Two Bush, you know, terms, another Bush term.
I can handle Republicans.
Yeah.
I voted Republican.
It's not the end of the world.
It's not what I agree with.
But I can handle it.
This is different.
This is different.
This is crazy.
I hope it's, I hope, I certainly do too.
I'm not saying you're wrong.
to be wrong. I want to be wrong. I want all of us to be wrong. No, what I'm saying.
There's nothing. This guy is 78 years old. There's nothing in his history that suggests he's going to do the right thing. Everything, all the evidence suggests he's going to ruin the fucking country. And then what about all the other people that were also elected as a referendum on liberal politics? What do you? Like, what about the DAs that were flipped? What about the senators?
I think some of them might do a good job.
My point is you can tell that the American people want something.
It's not just a Trump.
Sure.
Yeah.
So we hope that those people get what they want, right?
We hope that those politicians can deliver.
I think shows when you see it at the top, when you see it at the top and you're not
happy with that's the top, what is at the top, everybody that's that is going to get punished for it.
Yeah.
It's just really that simple.
Yeah.
You know?
And I really think that people got real basic issues, and I say it all the time.
People want to know how much money they can have in their pocket, and people want to be safe.
If they don't feel like they're getting that much money in their pocket and they don't feel like they're safe, it's going to be a backlash.
I think that's what we saw.
Now, and I don't think it's one thing.
I think it's all those things you're saying.
I think it's the things that I'm saying.
I think it's good old-fashioned racism and sexism and bigotry.
I think it's all that wrapped up into one.
And guess what?
That's what you need to do when you run in a campaign.
And you don't run a campaign on one thing.
You know what I'm saying?
You run a campaign on a multitude of things.
And you connect with people, and that's how you win election.
I just hope that for the sake of Democrats, because I'm a lifelong Democrat, right?
I am a registered Democrat.
Okay.
I'm nothing.
That's fair.
Impos.
I'm not ready.
No, he's independent.
Well, I mean, that's.
Yeah, I guess I hear what you're saying.
But, like, I hope that Democrats don't chalk this up to racism, bigotry, misogyny.
Because if they do...
They're not going to do no real soul search.
Exactly.
So what I hope is Democrats look at what happens and don't go, oh, it's just uneducated people.
Oh, it's just white guys.
I agree.
I hope what they do is some reflection.
And they go, where do we miss the American people?
Where are we not answering them?
Where do we lose our way?
And then maybe, just maybe, the Democratic Party will come back to that beautiful, glorious Democratic Party we have and we're younger that we were all proud of.
But I think Republicans need to come back to Senate, too.
Listen, I'm not saying they don't.
But the only thing that can bring them back to the Senate.
the center is that the Democrats are there.
If there's a Democratic option that meets our values, then the, then the Republicans have to.
But right now the Republicans are speaking to the things that Americans care about.
I think, yeah, I'm not, I agree with you.
I think Kamala, uh, I think Kamala is a moderate, but I think that, you know, the, the,
the problem is years and years and years of, of, of, of Democrats letting folks down and too
much far left from Democrats over the last seven, eight years.
Yes.
So by the time, Kamala comes around, because Biden's a moderate.
Like Biden's the mind.
So by the time they both come around, they're not even looked at as moderates no more.
Because the whole party is looked at as far left.
You got to just move away from the AOCs.
You got to move away from the fucking, what are the other ones that are just allowed and annoying?
You've got to go to like, you got to move away from Caitlin Jenna.
Yeah, you got, but you got to go to the Buttigiegs.
You got to go to the smart principal Democrats.
Normal gay guys.
Normal gays.
Yes.
I am supportive of normal gays.
How much more center and normal could you get than Joe Biden?
I don't think Joe Biden was too old, Chris.
Yeah, I mean, he can't.
He wasn't inspiring.
We noticed we noticed he had everything.
When it came to being a politician, he was a damn good politician.
He also did win.
He just, he won.
Why do you guys think that playbook's going to work?
Like, Trump has shown us the further away from being.
Only he can get away with that.
He lost to Joe Biden.
I think that was only because 2020, the divide of the country.
Like we had COVID, we have all the rioting.
People were just tired of that.
And they were like, yo, we don't want any more of that.
So we vote anybody else.
They could have ran a donkey and that donkey would have run over Trump.
But I think right now, the American people have shown we're tired of how politicians talk.
We like this radical guy who just talks like one of us.
And now every single politician that comes after is going to model themselves like Trump.
Listen, and they're going to lose.
Because here's the thing.
And not doing the reflecting thing.
This is where the mistakes are made.
If Barack Obama is Michael Jordan, then Donald Trump is Dennis Robin.
And there's only one of both of them.
Yeah.
But Obama's not Jordan anymore.
Oh, no, Obama's always true.
No, I mean, part of the reckoning is the Dums have to understand.
He went hard at the end.
Yeah, but Obama was Jordan in his time, Chris.
Yeah, he's joined with the wizards now.
Yeah.
But as the elder statesman, when he comes forward and says, this is the priority.
Because he did what Schultz is saying, and I guess what I'm saying, too.
And it didn't resonate with me.
Because he went out there waving his finger at people instead of talking to people.
Like, what's on your mind, brother?
What's the problem, brother?
Why aren't you supporting us, brother?
Like, what are your issues?
He was running the Trump's a bad guy campaign.
That doesn't work.
He's bringing up things that are known hoaxes.
Those aren't necessary.
That's not going to win election.
The American people are smarter than that.
And they've looked past that.
They understand the media spins narratives that are fake.
Okay, it happens all the fucking time with presidents.
Shit, it happens with us.
So they don't trust these mediators and he's out there, he's spouting it.
Now, is he incredibly engaging?
Is he a superstar?
Yes, but what he has to do is sell them the dream, sell them hope, sell them change,
and he wasn't doing that.
And that's what the Americans reacted to.
It's simple as that.
It's star power with no substance.
We need hope.
We need change.
I mean, I remember Obama.
Yeah.
Hope is the audacity.
of hope. What a great title for a book.
Yeah. Make us believe.
Kamala didn't inspire. I wasn't excited for Kamala's America.
Like there's nothing exciting about it. I was like, oh my God, this America is going to be
amazing. When I think of like Trump and Elon in America, the pipe dream is like, oh my God,
are they going to organize everything? Is Elon going to get involved with government, make it
more efficient? That sounds like a nightmare. Yeah, it might be a nightmare. But the idea
in someone's head of it going great, the idea of it being executed.
makes me very excited.
The idea of America being the tech capital of the world
and us starting a colony on Mars
and us being at the forefront of invention, creativity.
To me, I see that with Elon and Trump.
I don't see that with Kamala.
People are optimistic about possible change
or just settling for what?
For status quo.
So you think Kamala spent too much time
going at Trump as opposed to saying what it is
he wants to do?
We're over.
Like we're over anything bad.
you say about Trump are over. We've heard it for years
and he's still around. I agree with that.
I agree with that. It still has to be said.
Huh?
Still has to be said. I mean, you can say
it all you want, but if it doesn't work, you're wasting your breath.
Exactly. Chris, remember I was, and that's what I mean
by the trans commercial. The trans commercial
was effective. So it's
so it may not mean anything in the bigger scheme
of life, right? But it's effective in
a campaign. You got to find the things
that are effective in a campaign. Well, then there was a more
effective way to say it that they didn't
land on. I can see
it. Obviously, it doesn't resonate.
I can't tell you a resident.
Are, Chris, what happened.
Are, and this is another way I feel,
there just hasn't been an issue that stuck to Trump.
There hasn't been a thing.
There hasn't been one thing out of all the wild shit he said,
all the things he's done that has stuck to him.
What?
Not one thing.
You came in.
There's a multitude of things wild shit he said.
I think January 6 stuck with a lot of people.
Not enough.
I don't think it did.
Sadly, it didn't.
I think that's the biggest thing that hurt him.
If it wasn't for January 6, Trump would have won by a bigger landslide than he did right now.
Man, what did y'all see that?
No, no, no.
It would have been a bigger landslide, bigger landslide.
Until it would have been a bigger landslide.
Would that would have been 20?
I don't know.
That is, that is the main issue is like, yo, he's a threat to democracy.
Hey, I don't think that shit hurt him at all.
Now, I did see in the last couple of weeks,
a democracy, threat to democracy was actually like the number one and number two issue behind the,
number two issue behind the economy.
I don't think that shit had no effect on them at all.
I didn't see this.
I've said this before and I'll say it again.
I've never seen anything like Donald Trump in my life.
The man has a different level of privilege.
We've seen white powerful men get punished.
We've seen white powerful men have to deal with the consequences of their actions.
Nothing.
Nothing sticks to it.
His shit ain't Teflon.
What's some shit that just don't stick to you at all?
Come?
Come on a gold tooth.
I don't know if it's a bad tooth.
After they were to pod, man
Come on a go to be the fucking crazy
Pay some bills
Let me face the bill.
All right, guys, let's take a break first.
So, shit, somebody in the comments said,
somebody in the comment said,
Fend to be the most watched brilliant,
brilliant idiotious episode.
Get them, Drew.
Oh, Shal are going to have Faced All episode.
Loved all that.
Kindrick talk about how
black someone is only for it to bite him back.
Hope he liked that Drake beef.
This was the cause.
So somebody goes, bro, this Drake meat riding
that's got the end at some point.
God damn.
He said, how'd you manage to shoehorn
a three-month-old beef into this situation?
And then the do reply back to him,
don't get pulled over.
What?
You can pull over.
This shit is great.
This shit is great.
Oh, man.
Let's do some church announcements.
What you got, show,
let's see.
Last few shows of the tour.
Not this weekend, but the next weekend.
We're out there.
We got Reno.
We had a second show in Reno,
San Jose and Portland.
Thank you guys so much for selling out those shows.
And the final show to tour is going to be in Hawaii,
Honolulu, Hawaii.
So get the remaining tickets for that one as well.
And thank you so much, man.
I appreciate y'all so much.
The Life Tour.
We are filming the special over Thanksgiving weekend.
Hey.
Thank you guys so much for selling out those shows.
And I can't wait to get in there

Make sure you go get a copy of that.
Make sure you go get all the smokes book.
Their coffee table book is also out in stores,
all available via my book in print,
Black Privilege Publishing.
And this weekend, I'll see y'all in Nashville
for the Thriller Possibility Summit, man.
You know, the Thrill Possibility Summit
is an event that we do,
the Black Effect that we do every year,
where we fly in 50 HBCU students to Nashville,
and we just have a weekend of panels
and, you know, different events for them to attend.
You know, if you're a major in the steam field,
we have just different people who are in those spaces
pouring into these kids all weekend.
So I'll get to see you youngings this weekend in Nashville.
Now let's get back to the show.
Taylor, I hope you're okay.
Please don't have Roger come up here.
Roger from Rawaway is going to pull his range rover and rough you up
I didn't know they're affecting me that way until this moment
Yeah
Is Roger from Rawley a Republican?
No
He's not a real thing
Like I don't know
I thought y'all was real
What do you mean he's not a real thing?
My man's name is not Roger
Yes his name is Roger from Rawley
He's a Republican and got the range rover
You know what?
No, but a lot of women have been affected in that way.
I see, I saw it.
I saw it the past 24 hours.
My wife was affected by it.
Really?
Yeah.
I wanted to ask you about that.
How does she, like, what she, how does she feel about it?
She, I mean, I just asked what you want to ask.
Yeah, who she voted for?
She bought for Kamla.
I told her, because I didn't want to have to go do all the voting.
And I was like, the fuck we can do this far.
So I tried to pull the little Larry David.
So I was like, all right, who are you willing for it?
She's like, Kamala.
And I was like, all right, well, I'm going to vote for Trump.
So why don't we both just not go and then we'll be good?
And it will cancel each other out.
And she was like, all right.
And then halfway through the day, she's like, I just went and voted.
I said, this motherfucker.
Damn.
So I had to pull up.
Damn.
I had to pull up and throw down.
Damn.
Had to pull up and throw down.
You all argue about it in the house?
Not not at all.
She's like really, like, she's obviously heard, you know, she knows that I have certain reasons and she has certain reasons.
And like she's doing it obviously because of reproductive rights.
You know, we have a daughter.
And the way I'm...
Very good reasons.
The one of the reasons I voted.
But I also thought, like, my daughter got another four elections before she's going to have to use them reproductive, right?
So we're going to figure that out by the time.
We're going to figure that out before we get to that.
Man, Alex.
What about that?
That shit goes hard.
He liked that one.
He liked that one.
He liked that one, Taylor.
Yeah.
But what is...
I have a question, though.
Well, what is you guys going to have more kids, right?
Hopefully, that'd be awesome.
Okay.
Don't you get about your wife's rights or anything?
Well, no, we want to have them.
There's no rules.
But you don't think that besides even the abortion,
you don't think he's taking away other...
Like the right to have kids?
No.
Women's rights in general,
black people's rights.
I don't think these are going to affect black people's rights.
I think women got maybe a little too many rights.
It's not even just about the rights.
I'm talking about even like...
When it comes to like...
When it comes to like...
I don't tell you nothing.
Go on.
Go on the chicken.
Come on back.
Come on.
Because you're not like our safety, basically.
You don't care about it.
I care about your safety.
I absolutely care about your safety.
But that's in threat of us, though.
It is.
I will say it is.
I understand the frustration of women have it.
I understand why that motor.
But I don't understand the black thing to be completely honest with you.
I don't understand like how any legislation that you're taking away our history.
You're really America's history.
That's true.
That's true.
That's taking away your history?
Yeah, they don't want, uh,
anything taught in schools.
It's American history.
Why don't have a history?
Why you want to race arts kids?
When you say things, to me, that's the most snowflake thing.
That's one of the most snowflake things they do, right?
Because they say anything that makes a white person uncomfortable,
you shouldn't teach in school.
No, I don't agree with that.
Exactly.
But I also don't agree with that.
But I also don't agree that we need to teach critical race theory.
I think that we can have a consensus on like...
But critical race theory is just considered the history of America.
If you're teaching about slavery,
if you're teaching about Jim Crow segregation.
I learned about all those things in school
and I didn't have critical race theory.
But they didn't call it that.
Just don't call it that.
This is American history.
Just keep on teaching American history the way we all learned it.
We all learned about Jim Crow, right?
You guys learned about Jim Crow.
But they don't want to.
Honestly, I'm disappointed in Florida
because Florida are supposed to be more progressive.
Florida wants to get rid of that.
You haven't met to Florida.
I thought Florida was just wild wild west.
The fact that they won't legalize marijuana
and that shit, Florida?
They can't legalize the marijuana over there.
Meth is legal in Florida.
And look what happened.
They're too indulgent.
Florida, whatever they legalize,
they got to do it extra.
Amen.
Also, you need to be on your P's and Q's in Florida.
There's all over the place.
Like, you can't have them relaxed and, you know,
smoking weed getting gobbled up.
No, it's just because they're running the drug game down there.
And they're like, we don't need government stepping into it.
Ooh, that's actually a good thing, too.
That could be it.
Let's do some all memes necessary, man.
Because we got four years of this shit coming up.
So you don't need to.
They don't need to blow it all in one pod.
Rest of peace, Quincy Jones.
One of the greatest humans that ever walked the face of the earth.
Didn't know him personally.
I'm just speaking on a pure talent level.
I respect anybody who is able to have the type of longevity
Quincy Jones has had and who's able to reinvent themselves
through era after era after era after era.
You know, some people are lucky to get one, you know,
Sanford and the Sun theme song.
But did you get Sanford and Sun theme song.
He did a night theme song.
The color purple, the goddamn, the Austin Powers.
He did that in the 60s.
That shit used to be the theme song to the Judy Garland show.
Beast.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, he's just a different guy, man.
Thriller.
Frank Sinatra.
Thriller.
Off the wall.
What was the Frank Sinatra song he arranged?
And they played it on the moon.
Yeah, the one they played on the moon.
The moon joint.
Fly me to the moon.
Come on.
Let me sing.
amongst the star. Come on, man. Quincey Jones lived a great life. He lived to be 91 years old.
God bless him, man. That's a fantastic life. See, that's what I'd be talking about, right?
He lived a long life and he lived a long life.
I'm right. You know what I mean? Some of y'all just live a long life and don't live.
But he lived. He lived, man. Quincy Jones, man. I love watching him and Clarence Avon together,
rest of peace to the God, Clarence Avon. And yeah, man, he reunited now. And it's interesting, right?
Because imagine being 91 and all your peers are gone.
Like the people you've had some of your greatest moments with,
they're not even here.
Like, he could tell all these Franks' adoption stories.
Frank ain't here to talk with him.
He can tell all these Ray Charles stories.
Ray Charles not here to talk with him.
He could tell all these Michael Jackson stories.
Michael Jackson is not here to talk with him.
So you could put mad sauce on it if you know.
You know what I'm saying?
Because who's just going to dispute you?
Thank you.
You know what I'm saying?
Nobody around to say you was BS and you could post sauce all over.
Now you got to square up when you get to heaven.
But while you here?
Come on, man.
You're a god walking on water.
Play the ref is freaky thing.
I watched this video so much, yo.
Why would you watch this video?
I saw this shit.
Because I like to see how normal gay guys behave, yo.
This is a normal gay.
Look, look, look.
You like to step in a normal.
Yeah, why is this man not being investigated?
You having all of these conversations about Epstein lists and ditty tapes.
We got a tape right here of this perfectly okay center.
And look at the time.
One minute, 27 seconds left in the fourth quarter.
He gave him a little thrust and everything.
He'd been watching that thick-ass center bend over all games.
And he was like, man, fuck that.
Somebody said unsportsmanlike conduct on the referee for aggressive dittiness.
Because he didn't touch him.
It looked like he wanted to.
He pulled the side of his ass.
He just pulled the side of his ass.
Look at the coach.
That coach is furious.
What was the reason for this?
It's like he just swiped it, though.
really.
No, that's great.
So the commissioner,
that'll be having to do press conferences
because he got to explain this shit.
No, that's crazy.
Why did he do this?
Look at this shit.
Come here, thick, boy.
That's, that's, that's...
That's...
That's...
That's...
He over there bricked up the whole game.
Yeah, that's true.
Like, that shit was calling him.
He was like, ooh, God damn.
Freaky-ass ref.
He is a 69 God.
He is a 69 god.
Jesus Christ.
Damn, bro.
This is in Atlanta, I bet.
It is Atlanta.
Cowboys versus the foggots.
not surprised about that one.
Damn.
What else we got, Taylor?
What?
Oh, Freya, Thug!
Yeah.
We didn't even talk about that.
I'm home.
Thug is home.
Thug is home.
I mean, I didn't see it happening any other way.
I actually thought he probably would get a mistrial.
But he's home.
He's on probation for 20 plus years.
They dropped that shit.
They knew exactly what they were doing with that decision.
You released that the day before the election.
That was last week, right?
No.
Wasn't it last week?
No, it was on Monday or Tuesday.
Yeah, it was last week.
But still, you released that shit
and then it just gets swallowed up by the election.
Yeah, nobody.
I mean, that's two different worlds.
That's like, you know what I'm saying?
You still want to swallow up that story
because what a massive fuck-up.
I think it's the most expensive trial in history,
or Atlanta history?
I know one thing.
Fannie Fannie Fannie Willis just got reelected too.
Oh, really?
I know she on the list.
I know Trump got her on the list
to opt.
We're going to see her.
We're going to see her.
I got the list.
They sent me the list.
You got the list?
You got the list?
What's all on them?
I had to take a few names off.
Really?
Who was on the Fannie Willis?
Who else?
I took your name on?
Alvin Bragg.
I said, Charlotte is untouchable.
You can't touch Charlotte.
I'm divinely protected.
That's what I said.
He's divinely protected.
They know it.
I put Chris on there instead.
They said you need a sacrifice of white.
If we take Charlotte over there, you need a sacrifice of weight.
You know, they got a list of, they got a list of, like, extraterrestrial being.
They got a list.
list of like people like they know as God's like,
anointed ones.
They, what?
Yeah.
That they know is what?
Yeah.
What are you doing right now?
They got a list of people that they know is what?
Anointed.
Oh, Drake, play Drake.
Get over it, Taylor.
Is this him mean mugging DeMarrozen?
Shout out to Thug, man.
I wish for Thug the same thing I wish for Donald Trump.
I want Thug to do the right thing.
I want Thug to come home and I want Thug to
start pouring back into the community that he's from.
I want Thug to just stay on the righteous path.
I don't want to see him violate his probation.
And you know, the interesting thing about Thug,
everybody keeps saying, like,
I see all these memes and shit going around,
like, this type of music Thug will be making,
and it's like gospel music and all this and that.
To me, and I could be wrong,
those biggest records that slap ain't the hood shit.
It's parties shit.
It's shit like,
pick up the phone, baby,
and, um, uh, uh, what's the two bitches and, uh, a boy, he puts some other,
he got a bunch of shit.
Let me pull up my thug playlist for long.
Let's some of the gangsters shit slap, y'all.
Like, I mean, he got some cool gangster records.
See, he could still say it without saying.
He's gonna be.
What's the gangster records?
For him to get creative.
What's the gangster records thug got?
I got you.
I mean, he got some gangster shit.
But I'm talking about the fucking, um,
Hold on. I got a thug playlist.
Let me let you tear some of the shit on my thug playlist.
Where my thug playlist at?
Coming!
Grazie, I'm gonna'a. This shit goes crazy.
Pick up the phone, slaps.
Oh, no, they didn't pick up the phone, what's that?
Ah, it's up.
It's up?
Man, a lot of this stuff are just...
That's what I'm saying?
Oh, best friend.
That's my best friend. That's my best friend.
Two bitches.
the Floyd Mayweather record,
powers,
you're gonna go,
you're gonna be just fine.
Digits,
pick up the phone,
Hercules.
He's gonna be just fine.
All I thought I gotta do
is rap about women,
money.
That's it.
Being happy and being free.
Do you think him and Gunner connect?
I hope so.
I hope they do.
I mean,
he asked the judge.
He asked the judge.
He told the judge
he wants contact with Gunna.
His only two co-defendants
are his brother and Gunna.
So, I mean,
I would assume
that he wants to get with Gunner
to make music.
That would make sense.
as his artist, you know?
But once again, I want Thug to do the same thing.
I want Trump to do.
Just the right thing.
That's it.
One of them I believe in more than another.
Okay?
One of them, my belief, will do the right thing.
The other, I'm not so sure, but I'm optimistic.
Okay.
All right, let's do an ad and do some asking idiots.
What was the other one?
Pull up the Drake one, the Drake and DeMar de Rosa.
I want to know what you thought.
Oh, yeah.
Man, come on, Drake.
Drake, we all get, you know, in our feelings and shit.
We all get sensitive about stuff, but you know, you're the biggest hip-hop artist of all time.
Who cares? Let this shit go.
He did it knock it the fuck off.
Yeah, it's okay.
Just let it go, bro.
Here's the thing.
You can't keep showing how hurt you are.
Demar de Rosen did nothing to you.
Well, well, well.
Kendrick Lamar put him in a verse, and he put him in a video.
Well, he agreed to do the video, and I'm sure that they were friends, and he thought that they were close.
in the same place.
But that's the other thing.
Like there's different ties
that Kendrick might have
with him and he might have to pull up.
Simple as that.
I just think it's just like,
don't show you're this bothered.
Drake has not handled any of this well.
Yeah.
When you take a L, there's no need
to look bothered, okay?
You give your concession speech.
Move on.
And you move to fucking on.
Okay?
Drake has not done that.
Drake has done nothing but look more
and more bothered.
And I'm going to tell you something else.
He put out another record last week.
Didn't go up?
Wait, Drake put out a record last week?
Yes.
And the shit actually kind of slaps.
It does slap.
The no-face shit.
You ain't seen it with the video?
Pull up the Drake no-face video.
That's what I'm saying.
That's what I'm saying.
This is a scary time.
And I'm going to tell you,
February ain't going to be no better, Drake.
Because I told you,
you should have went and took a break.
You should have went and took a break after all of this happened.
Went away.
February.
Grammys.
Drake, Kendra going to win a Grammy for Euphoria and not like us.
Then Kendra going to turn right around and perform at the Super Bowl.
Yeah, but Drake could also just claim he didn't lose for the next four years.
It might work out for him.
Did he stop trying to steal Trump move, bro?
I'm just saying.
It worked with it.
Drake, not Trump.
Let's come on.
Let's be honest here.
He's talking about Trump is a very different situation.
I mean, here's the difference between Drake and Kendra.
I mean, Drake and Trump.
Trump actually had a comeback.
Okay.
And it's still early.
No.
He won it.
Drink ain't having, there's no comeback.
Oh, yeah, yeah, he got to walk away.
It's over.
Play it, play it.
Look at this shit.
Play it.
It's only one minute.
It's only one minute, 13 seconds song.
What?
What?
This is this shit that my daddy had raised me on niggas got lit off the features.
I skated on.
I got a note.
I got a know.
How you get lit off the nigga you hate it?
No.
This is the moment.
I know they've been praying on.
No.
Try now the boy off and fuck it.
I'm staying on.
Oh, keep on sending me.

showing no stress in my face what yeah no face no face no face no face no face
No face.
No face.
No face.
You ain't fucking with it, Alice?
No face.
It's good.
For some reason, I don't know.
That's what I'm telling you.
I did not get, I did not know.
I did not know.
It's good.
I like it.
I just think the chorus sucks.
The actual, the verse is fantastic.
Yeah.
But the no face, no face, no face.
The same is six days ago.
You didn't even know it came out.
I didn't know it came out.
Wow.
No, I don't even seen the, like, media reporting it either.
I'm trying to tell you.
Like he's saying like the cultural ones, like the shade room.
That's what I'm trying to tell.
No, I saw it on a couple, but that's my mom.
That's what I'm trying to tell you.
That's all I'm trying to tell you.
Oh, I'm trying to tell you.
Even in the verse, you could tell like he's still bothered.
Yeah.
I think that's what it is.
Like, yo, just give us a good song we can dance to.
And even the video is him and all his goons.
You know what I'm saying?
Like on some tough guys.
On some tough guys shit.
Like, stop.
Come on Drake.
Fun Drake is unbeatable.
If you try to.
be fun. If you're trying to have fun, you're being silly, you're being funny, you can't lose.
Unless he's going up against Trump right now, technically, because the whole election.
Can't be Trump. Can't be Trump. This was six days ago, Taylor. Usually, yeah, Drake would stop,
but the media, but. We got to stop acting like there's this intersectionality of media. Like, Drake
can drop a record and there can be an election. Not, not right now, no. I wasn't consuming.
You're right. Taylor's right. Really?
Outside of politics for the past three months. It's going to be like that. It's going to be like
that for another week, too.
Two weeks, probably.
No, longer than that.
Longer than that.
Here, here's the thing.
Here's the thing.
What are you talking about?
This is Donald J. Trump.
Mm-hmm.
You know, I remember
maybe a year ago on this podcast,
we all sat around and was like,
there's a part of us
that want to see the Donald Trump Revenge tour.
But now it is here, I don't want to.
I was, and I said it,
but I was like, I didn't think it would,
I didn't think it would be a part.
possibility. I didn't think there was no way in hell.
See what you did? Donald Trump would ever be back in the White House.
So you got this guy with the Senate, maybe the House, possibly putting too more judges on the Supreme Court, and presidential immunity.
Oh, my God.
My God. You ain't never seen somebody get a catalog like that.
When you get the catalog, what do you say?
Who?
What makes it? Give me the catalog. I'll show you how Daddy ball.
Who? Let me stop if I give Chris a goddamn heart attack.
We're going through it right now, man.
Let's pay some bills.
Wait, before that.
Hopefully he pulls in Obama.
What's pulling Obama?
Where he had the House and the Senate and didn't do nothing?
You don't know Trump.
I'm just hoping.
You know what he's just saying?
This guy is crazy.
Maybe.
No.
Let's take some bills.
Pace and bills.
I don't ask you a idiot, Taylor.
I got a fan.
I got a family, yo. I got a family. I got a family, yo.
God, damn. I got a family, yo.
I got a family, yo. She just fired one at you just to let you know she's back in office.
Yeah, but I got a family, yo.
Shout out the Kodak Black and Kassan. I haven't watched this scream yet I am. I need to watch it.
Kassan I don't know what the hell going on.
You said, you don't suck for me. I said, no, no.
You said, what is this called for him again? You said what kind of theme song it is?
This is

I guarantee
it's going to be
a hit single.
He said,
what's up
for me?
I said,
No,
no, no,
No.
He just was doing
a live performance
of it.
We don't understand it
now.
Wait till we hear

what it's done.
You give him so much
Craig.
Kodak hard.
Y'all
You don't go anywhere.
I love that dick.
I'm a hundred.
Yeah.
God's not

Guys are not

Come on, Taylor.
I have the cops not at Kodak.
Let's pay some bills to do some asking idiots.
I don't know.
Two of my favorite youngers to watch.
Watch.
Kodak, when that drop is going to be a hit song.
Watch.
I'm P.
I'll be right back.
He says the celibacy.
I think we need to be worried for Kodak.
I think we need to be worried for Kodak.
I can see that.
All the people around him, just let him do whatever he was.
He was spying the back saying that he wasn't.
He says he was on perks.
He saw, you know, he's on probate.
He just admitted to being on person and he's on probation.
I took one perk and y'all fucking tripp.
Like, that's crazy.
Yeah, you ain't wrong.
But we just laughing it.
This is like Kanye.
I'm not laughing.
He was in front of everybody and we all just kick in to him.
I want him to get the help he needs.
I want everybody to do right.
That is the theme of the podcast.
Yes, well, we shouldn't be laughing at this.
I didn't be concerned.
Yes, you were.
I like the song.
Yes, but we should be concerned.
That's a celibacy answer.
Get him help.
The man says, she want to suck it.
And I said, no, no, no, no, no.
You see you laugh.
You want this dick out there?
No, no, no, no.
Why y'all mad at that man for practicing celibacy, man?
Yeah, I want him to.
He's born to be out of his fiending for cock.
He said, no, no, no, no.
Shout out to yak.
Are you one of those media strategy people clicking through slides, scrolling spreadsheets?
Yes?
Good.
This is for you.
Because on Spotify, there's an audience that's different.
Locked in.
Loyal, invested.
They're called fans.
Fans don't just listen to music.
they feel seen by it like it belongs to them.
So when your brand shows up on Spotify, that's who you're talking to.
And you're right next to artists like me, Lizzo.
So, are you ready to talk to fans?
Spotify advertising.
You're among fans.
Asking idiots tailor gang so you can get home to Roger from Rawway who lives in a rowhouse
and drives a Range Rover and voted Republican.
He's coming to rough.
No, he did not.
He actually respects women's rights.
That's the only one you denied it, it's just a Republican.
I didn't, the first time I was talking about.
Roger from Rawaway.
I literally just said that's not his name.
Roger from Rawley.
Roger Rainer lives in a row house and he respects women's rights.
You, when is this book, can't ask you a question.
When is this book coming out?
Roger from Rawley.
No, this little kid that you're making.
That's what it's called.
Roger from Rawley.
Let's do some asking idiots, Taylor, gang.
Taylor got a boo.
Taylor really in love.
That's crazy.
Gray Day 19 says,
if you were gay for a day,
what would be the first thing you do?
What kind of gay?
Am I, normal gay guy?
Yeah, normal gay.
If I were gay for a day,
the first thing I would do
the same thing I do every day,
which is get on my knees to pray.
What?
What?
That is the first thing I do
when I wake up in the morning.
I get on my knees.
I needed to pray.
That wouldn't change because I'm...
I don't know.
I'd probably call some woman a bitch
and she can't say nothing about it
but be happy.
Wow.
It's progressive, yeah.
I thought the first thing you'd do
and left the F word for a lot.
Oh, wow, I didn't even think about that.
That's just, congratulations.
But gay guys could do that.
They don't call each other that, though.
They don't know.
Yes, they do. Yes, bitch.
That's the ones I know.
Yes, bitch.
You don't have any gay friends?
No, they say,
I do.
I don't know any of them that, like,
be like, hey, what's up?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right.
Yeah.
This is a, this is a wild question, Jakee Hobbs.
Jekihab says, who wins in the Civil War, East Coast or West Coast?
Jake E-Hops.
Who wins the Civil War, East Coast or West Coast?
Ooh.
I'm going to say East Coast.
Yeah, obviously.
The East Coast got the South.
East Coast got Pennsylvania.
East Coast got people that got the guns.
You know what I'm saying?
East Coast got people that really believe in the...
You also got the money.
They ain't got no money out there.
It's about the guns, though.
But they got the food.
Wait, but.
And food is important.
Texas is like mid, right?
Texas is like mid, right?
So who gets-Tex got to sit that shit out.
Texas is, Texas got to sit that shit out.
Texas, you got a chill, you're good.
Yeah, but the East Coast got Florida.
East Coast got South Carolina, North Carolina,
all of Georgia, Virginia, Alabama, Tennessee.
West Coast is California.
They don't really want to fuck.
Who in California wants to hit a butt?
Nah, bro.
West Coast is California.
Like, think about California,
Washington
Oregon
Now Arizona's down the West Coast
We're just talking about
Who's on the actual shore
Oh that's touching the coast
Got to touch the water
Oh okay
We're fucking them up
Oh yeah we got
We are fucking them up
If long as the East Coast got to south
East Coast
Even if they don't have the South
Nah
Come on y'all
Y'all ain't really a gun state
So who
Upstate maybe
Let me take you the parts of Manhattan
You never even fucking seen
Oh you know
It's much easier to get a gun now in New York
Yeah
It's been for like the last three years
I know
They sued New York for
I remember that
But it's still got the gun laws though
Yeah
You still get three and a half years
If you can call it an illegal gun
Illegal but I'm saying
Now it's much easier to get a legal one
Daniel scales one
If y'all had to pick one pro athlete
To represent this country
Who would y'all elect?
One pro athletes represent this country.
Who would we elect?
Who was the senator from the Falcons that got fondled by the referee?
DeKambe and Matamba.
He's no longer with us.
Oh.
And he's not from this country.
Oh, he's from the Hawks.
Uh.
If you had to pick one pro athlete to represent this country,
I mean, we do that, right?
The Olympics does that.
Probably LeBron.
Yeah.
I mean, like, are they active or retired?
Ooh, that's a good question.
If they were, I still would pick Braun.
My mind went to Brady for a second,
but I still would pick Braun
because basketball is a worldwide sport.
Yeah, I mean, I would pick Jordan, but yeah, I hear you.
Jordan's another one.
Who, damn, I want to talk.
Tom Brady got to be known around the world, right?
Yeah.
Gotta be, right?
Yeah.
Let's scroll up, Taylor.
What else we got?
Let's see what else we got.
I'll go to Jalen Brown.
You would do Jalen Brown right now?
Yeah.
He's like,
He's real progressive.
Stuff wouldn't be bad.
Scroll up some more, Taylor?
Scroll up some more, Taylor.
Justin Longlegs.
Ooh, this is a good one.
Yeah, let's do Korea.
It's a bunch of Trump stuff.
Okay.
Justin Long Legs,
what should we do if Trump does go buck wild as a country?
If Trump goes
buck wild as a country. What should we do if Trump does go buck wild as a country? What
should we do is what do you're saying? I mean if he's violating the Constitution, if he's
going against the rules of America, then we got to kick him out. Simple as that.
But there's no guard rails for it. He's got all the power.
January 6th. What you mean?
Yeah, January 6th.
Like, send somebody in there to go get him? You take him out? Like, pull him out to the White House?
No, not take him out. That's illegal. I mean like pull him out. Like, pull him out of the White
But like the club, yeah, bro, if you act
and rowdy in a club.
Yeah, you always have to protect
America. This is,
we're not living in tyranny here.
He's the president. He's the custodian, essentially, for
America for the next four years.
And then you need to make sure that he honors
the rules of America. Unless Americans
decide to change the rules. Simple as that. If we
decide to change the rules, then that's on us.
We've done that throughout history. There's been plenty of
things that we've changed. Yeah, I mean, we've kind of changed
the rules already, just not legally.
We changed the rules of what we're willing
to accept from politicians, or at least presidents.
That, you know, this is such an interesting question, Justin,
because this is what I was thinking about when I woke up this morning, man.
Regardless of who was to win the election,
we, the people, have to come together as a community.
Yes.
Because we have to learn how to be civil with each other.
Like, I'm not about to argue with people over who they voted for.
I'm not about to fight with people.
Like, I don't want to be walking down the street
and see somebody in a make America a great again hat
and be ice grilling them or they ice grilling me.
Like, we don't need that.
Like, nobody wants to, you don't want to walk outside
with your wife and your daughter.
Not at all right.
And somebody's starting to smoke with you
because you were Trump supporter.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, we don't need any of that.
And the only people that can control that is us.
So we, the people as humans,
regardless of what's going on in White House,
whatever, regardless of what's going on in the government,
we have to remain civil here.
There's a, I'm glad there was nothing that happened yesterday.
I'm glad no political violence popped off.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm happy that it was a free and fair election.
I'm happy that our democracy worked.
My person didn't win.
The person that I had an interest in didn't win,
but I'm still happy that everything went the way it was supposed to go.
So that's why you see me say,
I'm an American.
I want the best for America.
The only way we're going to get the best for America
is if we, the people, act like civil society.
individual. Even if these motherfuckers
is wilding. To me, this is a civilized
question from Justin Longley's. What should we do
if Trump does go buckwired as a country?
No, we hold them accountable. We hold them accountable the Constitution
and the laws of our country.
And it'd be hard. Because if he says he's acting as
in, what's it called? It's an official duty.
Yeah, official duty. Then.
What, I mean, I'm just answering the question.
You're creating scenarios where I can't answer it.
So it's like, I don't know what to tell you.
Like, now you're changing the question, too, what do we do if we do, but we can't do anything?
It's like, well, I'm just telling you what we should do if he stops honoring the Constitution and stops honoring the laws of this country.
And I think Americans, Americans at the end of the day, have the ability to share our feelings about the world and we're very passionate and we're very rebellious too.
Like, it's in our DNA.
Everybody who came here rebelled from something else, right?
You come here.
We're all sons of immigrants or sons of sons of sons of immigrants.
We've all left everything, right, to start something new.
So the idea of having a rebel spirit is built into our DNA.
Somebody trying to take that away from us or somebody trying to have some sort of tyrannical
control over us, he will reject.
And we will reject it unanimously.
So I am not in any way concerned of the American people's reaction to tyranny.
I can't.
How can you say that when he already tried it and he got reelected?
Fred what?
January 6th?
January 6th.
Oh, come on.
There's no, come on.
We still talking about that.
I'm answering the question.
I'm answering the question.
The answer is don't reelect him.
That's the answer.
Whoever your name is.
Hey, he didn't need January 6th.
You know, he needed November 5th.
Yeah, yeah.
He need November 5th.
He's right.
What's right?
He didn't need January 6.
He need November 5th.
I bet you Trump.
That's the answer is a question.
Don't reelect them.
How about that?
Yeah.
If you didn't fake the election last time,
you and your cohorts.
You know, so funny.
I bet you Trump went home last night
and Trump was like,
do you mean, I didn't even have to do that shit.
I didn't even have to,
I didn't even have to have a protest.
What?
What?
Come on now, Christopher.
Let's do one more.
Let's do one more, Taylor.
Let's go up, Taylor.
But yeah, let's just remember who we are, man.
Yes.
As a fucking community.
But I told, we told you all this last time.
After the election.
You still gonna have to go back and kick it with your people.
I got friends that are Republicans.
I got friends that are Democrats.
I got friends that are the Democrats. I got friends that are independent.
That's the thing.
Everybody got their own reasons for why they did what they did and voted for who they voted for.
We still people.
Like, you know what I'm saying?
I mean, not to be like serious and corny here,
but I do think that is one of the great things about this show.
That it just, it proves that that is incredibly possible.
Yeah.
And there's no, like, love, loss or animosity between us.
Obviously, we joke around about these things.
So we have these serious kind of discussions,
but you would hope that that is how people would treat politics.
I don't think that you're wrong for the reasons
that you have supported Kamala.
I believe that you believe that those are the best things for America.
There are things that I'm supporting Trump for
that I think are the best things for America.
It's just a difference of opinion.
Once we get into that tribalism ship
where it's like you're evil for what you believe
or I'm evil for what I believe.
That's when we lose our humanity.
That's it.
And we just sit around and wait for,
and this is what you do as boys, right?
You just sit around and wait to be right.
So you're sitting here gloating the whole time.
I'm going to keep in real with you.
I didn't know if we were going to wear this today.
I'm going to grill with you.
But you had it there just a day.
Hey, hey, first of all, I didn't buy it that hat for me,
but I'm just saying, I'm just saying, I didn't know.
I didn't know what was going to happen last.
That's not what I went to sleep.
I didn't know either.
That's interesting because I was pretty sure Trump was going to win.
Me too.
Well, it's your fault, Chris.
I was in here telling you that, you know, I thought Kamala had it,
and you was the one putting the bad juju on it, okay?
I wish I had that power.
You got what you wanted.
You asked for it.
You got what you asked for it.
I always tell my kids, what you want to happen in life, constantly talk about.
The things you don't want to happen, don't speak about at all.
Every week, Trump's going to win.
Trump's going to win.
Now look at you.
Moping.
Moping.
You know what you want it.
You got what you wanted.
You got what you asked.
who got what you prayed for.
Okay?
Inshallah.
Rub and boot his belly now.
Yeah.
How do I revert?
I knew Trump was going to win last week.
I went to a Yankees World Series game and there was multiple people with MAGA hats.
Yup.
The Yankee hat is the most iconic hat in history.
Nope.
People wore MAGA hats to a Yankee.
Yuck.
Wasn't that the same weekend of the rally?
And look at the garden?
It might have been.
But it wasn't the same day.
You study Yankee World Series game and you wearing a MAGA hat?
It's fun.
I knew Trump.
People are done with the Democrat politics.
I think there's a lot less, it's a lot less of support of Trump than it is, in my personal opinion, than it is a vote against Democrat policies.
I think it's a perfect thumb.
I think it's that.
I think it's the economy.
I think it's the immigration.
By the way, but all of that is considered Democrat policies right now.
That's, and that is the problem.
I mean, that's what motivated me.
It's not like I'm looking at one man.
I'm like, oh, my God, this man is about this.
No, no, it is that he seems to support or reject these Democrat policies that I, at,
this moment reject. Now, by rejecting them, could it get worse? Possibly. And then I go,
ah, I fucked up. The Democrat policies were actually better. But there's only one way to find
