Shult is out here, you know, making Sheiks laugh And Abu Dhabi Abu Dhabi and Abu Dhabi How was that? How was that? How was that? Is that a slur? I don't think so, is it? I don't know. I mean, it's just, you're pronouncing the word a little different. But, you know, I actually really love it out there.

I think it was awesome. Like, they're great comedy audience. They're not offended by shit. They don't have, like, the same, like, historical, cultural issues that we do in the West. Right? So, like, you could just make fun of whatever, and they're, like, down with it. Y'all made me, y'all gave me a perception of places like Dubai and Abu Dhabi that was not real. We did.

No, no, there's people in general. You know what I'm saying? And then you go there and you're like, y'all ain't nothing like they tried to make us believe in the West. They all get educated here and they get educated at like Eastern Tennessee University. Yeah. So like America, America. They're not going to fucking just Beverly Hills in like New York to get educated. So they're very familiar.

I would say they're more in tune with American cultural references than Europeans are. Oh, wow. Because Europeans don't have to as much because they're existing within their own films. their own music, their own TVs, whereas you're out there in a very small country like that you're going to want to explore these other cultures, especially when you're living there. So, yeah. Why are they going to schools like in Tennessee? Why not like the big schools here?

I mean, there's just not that many, all of them go get educated. Like, but there's not that many slots. Because that's the thing with like school. You can't just because you have money in them. That depends on. Then when you go over there, right? Does it make you feel like democracy is overrated? When you go over there?

Yeah. Nah, but it made me feel like I want to research kind of how they figured it out because Monarchy is usually or end up in tyranny or it's, I mean, this is kind of like the history of the world, it's kind of fucked up. And they have this like quite benevolent system that they've built there. And that takes some very impressive leadership. So I need to look into their history of how they manage to avoid those like, uh, I think because people's basic necessities are being met. I think, I think it's two things. I think it's necessities being met. No, no, no.

I think it's, I think it's necessity to be met, but I also think because there are tribal ties, like basically what the United Arab Emirates isn't just one country. It was like seven, we call them countries that were convinced to all come together because there's going to be strength and power together. So that's a daunting task already. Letting, asking someone who has their own thing

sacrifice some of that to be part of this bigger thing. That's tough. but I think because it's so tribal everybody has everybody kind of knows each other so it's hard to really fuck someone over like imagine you're the leader and you fuck over

you for example you're like I went to school with your dad how are you gonna fuck me over I think that I think that plays a part of it whereas sometimes you get these like Putin taking over in Russia it's like Putin doesn't know the fucking Russians

out there in Siberia it's easier for him to maybe fuck over the people because he doesn't. It's wild that we're over here trying to preserve democracy, but then you go over there someplace like that where there is no democracy and everybody's happy.

Oh, I don't think that if we had a monarchy, but I don't think that we would do it right. You got to get lucky. And the other thing is that... You got to have the right person in the position of the problem. And that's the problem is that this dude right now is doing an incredible job. You would hope that his lineage

continues that, but he might be an anomaly. He might be this amazing leader. We don't know if he's a good. there's going to be another one and another one another one. You don't want to be the person to fuck it up, though. When you got something as good as they got going on over there, you don't want somebody to come in and fuck it up. So you'll just carry on tradition.

I would hope. You would hope. Yeah. But the bigger country gets, the less people are connected to one another. You just hope. All they got to do is keep us up. Keep up, keep up. That's too late.

They got the West. Bro. Man. Like, I don't know if it's totally. But you know what, though? Those strict laws. the West is over there, but they don't fuck around. Don't fuck around with them.

They don't fuck around with them. They do not play no fucking games. They don't fuck around. There's no dissent. It's really interesting. Usually what happens in a lot of times is like, I just need to talk to somebody from there. But when you have an incredibly religious country, there's a religious power source, and then there's a political power source.

And if those are ever at odds, a lot of times the people side, but the religious one. Yeah. Or the religious one can usurp power. It looks as if, and I guess I don't know, I don't know who like the head imam is. I don't know if there is like a head imam there. I'm not sure.

But it seems like everybody's kind of on the same page. And I just need to sit down with someone who knows the history. And it's recent. We're talking about the last. In terms of like how it's turned into this. What is that? 50, 75 years? Yeah, I think it's just turned 50.

I remember when I was there when they were just celebrating some miles. So like, I would love to learn more about it. Shout out to everybody who's been going out there to get my new book, get on it for dialogue. Small Talk Sucks. Available everywhere you buy books now. If you like the sound of my voice,

I do my own stunts, so I read my audio book as well. So thank you for that. It has been very interesting being out here on this press tour. It's been very interesting. More importantly, man, than the press tour. I should have said this on Flagrant, but I didn't. I forgot about it. It just came back to me.

Going out here and talking to the media is one thing. We know what the media's agenda. Like different media outlets have different agendas. Everybody got an agenda. It is what it is. What makes sure. you realize the agenda doesn't matter is when you go out here and you talk to people. When you're having conversations

with people. And literally that's where I get all my information from. My information comes from the people. If you asked me a question like when Fox News asked me back in January, you know, do I think the border is going to be an issue in November? And I said yes. My answer was based off what

people have been telling me. People saying how they feel like their neighborhoods aren't safe are, you know, the activists in Chicago telling me that you know, these, the migrants are coming in and they get resources that we, that homeless people here and I get, and people on the south side not getting, like, so me just hearing that, whether or not those things that those individuals said are true, it's what they feel. It's what they feel.

And that's why it would be important to the election. Simple. Yeah, yeah. Simple is that. So when I said that in January, they were like, oh, Salomey's pushing maga messaging. No, that's the messaging of the people. But now, all these months later, everybody's like, well, yeah, the border is an issue. This person did feel, these activists in Chicago

do feel that way, and people in Boston do feel this way. So, it's always interesting when you go out here and you have conversations with people. Like, I was having conversations with people in these book signings. And this one woman in particular named Kim. I met Kim and Carl Gables Florida sister, had a broke leg. And she was like, I am so glad you did not

endorse anybody on the motherfucking view. She was like, both of those candidates are terrible. Yeah. Right? And by the way, You can bring in all Trump's criminal charges not. Everybody know that, but guess what? They're still on the ballot.

So that's not even a, that's really not even an issue with some people. What is stormy upset about? You got your money. It's like these women that do that, they make it harder for our daughters. Ooh, I like this. They make it harder for our daughters. My daughter would never be a prostitute, bro. Yeah, but your daughter could get the gold digger label from bitches like that.

God, damn. I know, I'm hitting it. He letting that shit fly. I'm letting it fly. I'm letting it fly. I'm letting it fly. You know, it's the hard bit. It ain't the C.A.

It's a hard bit. When you start with the bit, I put that on bitch. Dang. Honestly, I put that on bitch. The bitch. The bitch. Don't make me break out the blicky. God,

damn. I'll bust out the blicky on these bitch. That hard BIT is crazy. She got her money, bro. What's the problem? Like, I'm totally, what is she upset about? about in this whole situation. I think it wasn't it the fact that they're using,

they were using campaign funds? And it's not actually, it's not actually her pressing charges. But she broke the NBA. I mean, she broke the NBA. I mean, she broke the NBA. Because she won more money. Yesterday's price wasn't today's price.

That's why, that, Taylor. What is that? Who would do that? That's why Johnny Cochran told Michael Jackson don't never pay. Because they all going to come. They're going to keep, they're going to keep coming back. You're paying for life.

You're paying for money. I don't even know how the fuck we got here. Point is, Trumpito is in the Bronx and you... You bought our Sleepy Hollow. Yeah, no, no, no. The reason we got here is because you were talking about not endorsing and... Oh, yeah, yeah. And the woman Kim was telling me how she was happy I wasn't endorsing

because she don't know these candidates haven't done enough. Her two issues that she feel Biden having gone hard enough about was the fact that she said he didn't fight for voting rights and he didn't increase the minimum... He didn't fight enough to increase minimum wage. Okay. Those were her two issues. If American...

If you literally went out here and you talked to so many different Americans and just listen to them, you'll understand why people feel the way that they feel. And when you find out how people, when you find out why people feel the way that they feel, then you can properly game plan and you can properly message. Or you can come up with things to actually present people to where they are energized and want to go out here and stream your name and endorse you. You know who I see not afraid to endorse Joe Biden right now? People who got their student loans forgiven.

Let me ask you a question. You know what I'm saying? You grew up in a small place. Have you ever been to, or maybe it was even your town, a town that had like one restaurant in it? Yeah. Hell yeah, them small towns around Monk's Corner, like the St. Stevens and Utahvilles.

Yeah. How often you think that menu changes? Changes. It don't. Because it don't need to. Because where the fuck else you're going to eat? And that's the situation, I think, right now with the party system. And it's not just Democrats and black people.

It could be conservatives. It could be people who are like super anti-abortion. They always vote for conservatives, but the conservatives haven't done anything about it. It's not even the conservative party they think most people grew up on. So they're looking at the Marjorie, Taylor, Green, and everybody, they're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, this ain't nothing, bro. Think about it.

When we were young, the party that was silencing people, right? The party that was like, don't you say bad words and rap music is bad and all these things, was the conservative party. the liberal party was the party of free speech when we were younger and freedom of expression, right? Now it's the liberals police and speech and it's conservatives going, hey, you should be able to say whatever you feel, do whatever you want. So when people go, oh my God, I feel like you've changed parties, no, we've stayed probably pretty similar to where we were when we were younger, but the parties have drastically changed. So we're trying to deal with this new fuck-up. I don't think that we've changed that much as people.

I don't think so either. Or our core identities have changed. Yeah, I agree with that. I don't think the core identities of people haven't changed. I think people start to give less of a fuck about certain. But I think some of the things they gave a fuck about, they really realized, like, what's bullshit? Yeah, why do I give a fuck about this? But I do think people's core identity changes when you get older.

Because, like, when you're a young college student, you care about certain things, but when you're older with kids and you have real responsibilities, like, you're cool. I can't go out there and protest this, bro. I'm sorry. I'm sorry that what's happening around the world, but I can't do it. I got things to do. Wait, why aren't you at every single protest about what's happening around the world? I'm married with kids.

Oh, wait, wait, wait. I'm sorry, but there's people out there that are not married and have no kids. They would like you to know why you aren't doing. Wait, why don't you not go to your daughter's volleyball game and your daughter's gymnastics stuff? Why don't you do that? One of the funniest shit I ever saw, it wasn't funny because it's not funny. But I remember when, I can't even remember who a guy.

killed. Who had got killed? No, one of the funniest shit I can't remember who got killed. No, the killing ain't got nothing to do with it. But we all went to, we were all, we were at Wendy Williams show and Reverend Ishaughton was leading a march and he was blocking off the highways and stuff like that. Oh. And so they was like, yo, we was like, yo, it's right up the street.

Like, yo, let's go. Let's go. So Wendy was like, all right. Lundy was like, you know, you know Wendy don't get to fuck about that type of shit. Wendy was like, hey, y'all motherfuckers want to go, y'all go, whatever, whatever. So me, Treve, Hollywood, a bunch of us went out there.

Everybody holding hands, like, no justice, no peace. The New York police are so funny. They're just sitting there. No, justice, no peace. New York police go. I saw somebody look at, they watched it.

They said, all right. In about five minutes, we're going to start locking people up. It's a Friday. So you're going to be there until Monday. You're going to be there all weekend. So if you got some place to go, you might want to leave.

No justice, no peace. No justice, no peace. About two minutes later. Okay, this is our last warning. We're about to start locking people up. If you don't want to go to jail for the weekend, you might want to go. No justice, no peace.

All you start seeing, click, click, click, click, click. In about 35 seconds, 40 seconds, people start like, I didn't get back to work, man. I got to be kids, man. Like literally, I ain't had no kids yet at the time. Everybody just dispersed. Yes. The people who got locked up, like Reverend Ishaught and them got locked up,

but those are people who have dedicated to life. Yes. To that. Yes. And I think that level of activism. Anybody, like Ukrainians and Russians right now, they should be this passionate about it, right? I'm sure Jews and Palestinians and people from the surrounding areas, they also are this passionate about it.

What's happened, I think, in northern Nigeria today or yesterday. also you should be that passion. I think Boca Haram did a terror attack and I think they kidnapped like 100 girls or something like that. But whatever you're passionate about you're passionate about it. I'm saying especially if it's going to affect

your direct community. Yes. But I think that there has been this like messaging that has come out from these different things where it's like, wait a minute, if you aren't out there on the street, if you're not doing something, you are an evil person,

you want this to happen. This is what you desire to happen. It's like, no, no, no, no, no. I have a daughter and a wife and a career. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And responsibilities as well. And those are two completely separate things.

Absolutely. I'm saying all that. I was saying all that just said, these media motherfuckers are not going to make me go crazy. Because I know I'm not crazy because of the people. Because when you're out and about talking to people, you get to see what's really on people's minds. The problem is most people don't talk to people.

They don't talk to people. I know they don't. These media folks ain't talking to people, politicians, they're talking to people. The beauty about radio, man, is that every single morning you get to talk to that working class American. on in. When I'm on this book tour and I'm at these these book signers, I get to talk to regular, everyday working class American. Bro, that's the thing. Stand up too. It's like you're in front

of real human beings. It's not just these internet bot motherfuckers. That's right. It's, it says real human beings that have jobs and are out for a night. You get to see how they really react to shit. That's right. And it's an incredibly humanizing experience. It's refreshing when you see what real people are. The internet is a version of, version of humanity that is not consistent with reality. At all. Like, not even a little bit. Taylor,

go back to your any means necessary. You have some good stuff up there this week, man. We weren't here last week. Just one good question. So since you been on this book tour and talking with a lot of people, what do you say, what do you think is the biggest topic people care about for the this coming election? It's always about the money,

baby. I keep telling people that, like there's nothing everything is about money and security. People want to have some money in their pocket and they want to feel safe. It's not rocket science in no way shape or form. People want to know how they can keep some food on their table and a roof

over their head. Like it is not rocket science in any way shape, or form. And most of these shows I go on, the main thing you hear one of these talking heads say or one of these personalities say, oh, the economy was so much better under Trump. Or the economy was better under Biden. But moral story is, it's a

about that goddamn economy. That's literally what people care about. People vote with their wallets, bro. That's it. And most people don't know what the actual economy is. They just, if their pockets are tight, the economy's bad in their view. And they don't even realize there's like a lagging effect with the economy. So it could have been what the last administration had done, which has.

That's what happened with Trump? Yeah. Some people say it was, what, what you're doing? Did you just, did she just unplug the fucking camera? You're a while, you wild, Joe. You're a wild girl. Do we need to stop down or? We go.

We back up. We go. Sorry. Taylor, you wild, Joe. And the crazy part is inflation is down, but prices aren't. And you have these political pundits who'll say things, but inflation's coming down, but prices aren't. And then Charlemagne, why would the prices come down? Once people, once people are already consuming at a certain price, do you think that these retailers are going to drop the price back down?

No. Hell no. They're like, let's continue this profit. We're eating. And it's wild when you, and another thing about the economy that makes me laugh is when people say things like,

the stock market is up. Bro, the people I'm talking to don't got no goddamn stocks. The fuck is y'all talking about? It's like, yo, it's weird the way we talk about these hypothetical humans

that you've never spoken to. That's why I love being from where I'm from. I love being from a rural area in Monk's Corner. I love being from a dirt road in Monk's Corner, because you never stop talking to real people. And you never know how to, you never know, you never stop learning how to communicate with real people.

Yeah. Like, it's not easy. It's not hard, bro. I don't think, I think that's, I think that could be anywhere. Like, maybe it's a little different because we're from New York and it's like, you're just going to see all walks of life. But, okay, if you're in like a gated community in Bel Air or some shit, like, maybe you're not going to talk to anybody else. Yeah. But if you grow up in a city, like New York is in popular.

for you not to talk and interact with real people. It's impossible. How could you? God damn, Taylor. You are a fucking mess. Just a bull in a China. I mean, just, God damn. It's bad.

Why is where I'm at? Don't do that. I mean, just plug it in. You need a bigger space. Everything's blocked. You need a bigger workspace. Why would you trap yourself in that corner like that? So I can see the TV.

You look insane. Could you get that black box out of the way? Black Lives Matter? Why is there a big black squit? Thank you. All me if necessary. Kevin Hart on Kai Sinat. Did you watch?

I saw clips. I didn't watch. It was so pure. It was great. I didn't watch it all, but that's the beauty of Kai Sinat, man. The beauty of Kai Sinat, as I keep telling y'all,

Kai Sinat is like Soul Train. He's like Soul Train, 106 and Park. He's like a, this is like a variety show. Okay. You know what I'm saying? And it's just like the things that he does, the way he just makes people. Kevin Hart,

you can't do anything when you go the Kaisenai's not except act like this. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Straight up. It's just that young, infectious. Energy. Yeah.

Get all your money, Kaisenat. Okay? It was great. So, entertaining. Get all your money, Kaisenai's tonight. Like, Kev went on there and did exactly what Ked was supposed to do.

Which is. First of all, he was just himself. Yeah, but he's himself, but also he's like, hey, you know what? I'm in your world now. Like, I'm leaning in. I'm leaning in. As he should.

Yeah, but some people might go on and be like, you know, I'm a, be stuck, not stuck up, but like, I don't fuck with this young kid activities. But he leaned in and he leaned in. Because there's been certain people just like, I don't know how I feel about this. I don't see, I feel like I've seen them all. Who are you talking about? I don't call names and stuff.

Why? Like, Nikki, for example, there were certain. I thought Nikki was good on him. She was okay, but there was certain things she ain't want to fuck with. Oh. I mean, I get it. I can understand. But Keb's also a comedian.

Yeah, this is like right up his app. Right up his fucking aisle. But the fact that it broke records is amazing. It's also awesome to see like a legit movie star go on someone's stream in their house. It really shows you the power of streaming. Kevin is a little different though. I can't even though you're right. Kevin is a legitimate movie star.

He's a little different though because Kevin has always understood technology. Kevin was on Twitter way before any of us was on Twitter. He was walking around the comedy clubs, getting people's emails, sending out the newsletters, telling them the first. follow them on these social media platforms. So this is just the new level of it. I'm interested to see, you know, does somebody like Kev try to tap into the screen and start his own?

Wow. Or do you just leave it up to the stream gods, like the Kyes and, you know, the acts of the world? Like, what do you do? I think if I'm Kev, I'm just going and I'm going there periodically. Like, doing it every single day. Because the thing about these guys in stream, like they're doing it for hours and hours.

full-time job. They're not playing games. So I don't know if a guy like Kev has that much time in his schedule. The fact that he is a day in his schedule is crazy. Yeah, that's what I want to, I don't mind putting this out there because I want to see this happen. I think that when you look at the streaming, the next iteration of podcasts are going to be the live screen podcast. Like, for example, we're taping Burying Idius right now, but if we wanted to, we could go live. Yeah.

You know, we could let people watch it. Like literally we could say, hey, we tape every day, whatever day it is. I don't know. Sometimes we vary, but between Tuesday and Wednesday, we tape every day at whatever time, this one we're going to be on, on our YouTube page. So people could watch it then. And then you still put it out as RSS feed. 100%.

I think it's a great idea. We just got to be. Yeah, we got to be. Yeah, we just, I got to be. Yeah, I don't know if we're the safest pod to be. That's the tricky thing. You want to be able to shoot and go crazy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like, are we doing on Breakfast Club? We go live, we go live during... You're live every morning, I figure. We're live every morning on air, but what we tape like... Oh, the segments of those stuff. Yeah. So we tape the segments and didn't air them back. Right, right.

But we do go live while we're taping them. Yeah. You know? Yeah. Because it's two different audience. 100%. So like thousands, 100,000 people that might get on, YouTube aren't the same

million of the people that's listening. I like the idea of doing the potlots. I think that we could. Yeah, I might have to experiment with that. I think that's the next wave, yo. Okay. That's the next wave. Okay. I want to do a live podcast, fresh, which I'm late. You're old old auntie. He's been asking. Can we call you Auntie now?

How old are you? I've been to Auntie. Teller, how old are you? Really? Your Auntie status? Taylor? I'm 37. I'm not 37. She 37? 37. You're 37? Oh, you were an Auntie. Oh, you're Auntie.

Yeah. Auntie. I have nieces and nephews, okay. Auntie. But I enjoy Kevin and Kai. People say they want to see a Kevin and Kai movie. I mean, that could happen. It could.

Does Kai have aspirations of acting, Hollywood? I think Kai said, and I can do whatever he wants. Whatever he wants. Kai, Kai, he's, how old is Kai now 22? Just take advantage of it. Like I keep saying, Kai got $100 million on his schedule. Just keep doing what you're doing. Oh, yeah.

Because he's going to get old and be Jimmy Fallon. And when you become Jimmy Fallon, it don't look as cool. And I slew to Jimmy. I respect Jimmy because Jimmy's been doing, Jimmy's been Jimmy for a long time. Yeah. You know? Yeah. But I think Jimmy's stuck in being Jimmy.

Yeah. I want to sit down and have a conversation with Jimmy Fallon. Fallon or Kimball? Fallon. Okay. Fallon is more of the character. Shout out. Shout out Jimmy Kimmel.

Jimmy Kimmel, my best. Shout out my bestie, Jimmy Kimmel is himself. Shout out my bestie, bro. Jimmy Kimmel is itself. That's my bestie. I want you and Kimmel to connect. I love him. He just got upset at me about the Aaron Rogers shit.

I forgot what it was. What was? She didn't forget shit. Yeah, what was it? I promise you, I forgot it. And it's so funny because I just saw Jimmy a couple weeks ago and we talked and I forgot what it was about. I thought it was because he was crying about Aaron Rogers. joke about him?

Oh, that's because his family was, because his family was getting threats, though. His family was getting death threats, yeah. Yeah, his family was getting death threats. Yeah. That's what it was. Who did Kimmel, though? Yo, Al, that's not funny.

His family's getting death threats, you know, that's not funny, bro. Why are you laughing? Why are y'all are laughing? I don't know why. We're not laughing. I'm not laughing. Al's laughing.

It's a fucking dangerous thing, families are getting dead. Oh, yeah, Alex's laughing now, but if he saw Jimmy Kimmel in the street, he'd ask for a picture. Oh, shit. Yo, Jimmy, if a Puerto Rican with dreadlocks and glasses and a New York Yankee fitted and painted fingernails, ever ask you for your picture. It's really a death threat. Don't trust it. Do not trust it, Jimmy.

You know. What else we got to tell? What do you say about Kai's face? He has, like, a face of a taller person. Stop. Oh, my God. This girl right here. was just...

I didn't know he was at short. I thought he was taller. First of all, he's only 22. He's still growing. Okay. Leave him alone. Yeah. Well, I didn't say nothing but he...

I thought he was taller. He had like a... Yo, Kai overhead is nothing, too. That's the beauty of it. Kai don't probably ain't got no staff. Nothing. He's got an agent or manager. I know that.

I like... No, he's got to have people coordinating stuff because, like, even that prison one that he did. Yeah, fantastic. Yeah. So like that's take... Did he? That sounds like production.

And I think what he's done, at least for what I've seen preferably, is like he's added games into the stream. And I'm sure there are the people who've done this too. I'm not trying to say that you haven't. But what I've seen is on the biggest level, he's like gamified the stream. And that increases engagement like crazy. What was Kevin promoting? Yo, this is, when you say what is kept promoting, he was in there drinking his tequila.

Right now in these matching outfits, that's Fabelletics. Yeah. that he got to deal with. I think that might even be his own line with Fabelletics. It's like... And Kai's wearing it too. Kai's wearing it too. And it fits Kanye.

It's like, yo, Kev is a marketing genius, man. Keb is one of these people he just, he got it figured out. Nah, Kev's the man. No, he's the man. What else we got, Taylor? Suit to Kai's a night. Remember to always tell you, Kai. Stay away from these dirty-ass niggas.

Yo! He's hip-hop fucking old-school journalist who don't really want to see you succeed. You ain't never even claimed to be a journalist. That's why people get, I saw somebody. I said the same thing, you know. I gave me the exact same advice. This is crazy.

Somebody got mad in one of my group chats the other day because Kai didn't know the name of Jay Z's first album. The name of Jay's first album is older than Kai Sinai. Reasonable doubt is 26. Kai is 22. Like, I don't care that he don't know that. Why does he have to be a hip hop historian? Exactly.

I don't care that. He don't know that. Let the youth be young, man. He never claims to be that person. By the way, there's things you can ask me as a 45-year-old about the 80s. I don't know. AIDS? No, that's a good one.

Ask me who the first person to get AIDS? Who is the first person to get AIDS? Easy E. That I know of. Holy shit. Then Magic Johnson. Who was first? I think easy.

Okay. Now, how stupid do I sound? Don't I sound ignorant as fuck? But that would be my answer. But, man, who was the first person to get age? I don't know. Probably Eve. From where? When she ate that fucking apple?

Oh, like Adam and Eve. It was a 99 from a man. You said to Eve the Rap. Yeah, I was like, what's he? She's still alive. So we're mad people that got it. Alex, you fucking ignorant? Yeah, but not the old one.

The old version. The first version took you. out, though. Now, that early age is crazy. That early AIDS? It's almost like HIV first, though, so it's not like the first known case of HIV-1 infection in human blood was in 1959 from a man in what? Kennesaw, Democratic Republic of Congo, but it's

unknown if he ever developed any of these. Scientists used the sample to create a family tree of HIV transmission which suggests that the first transmission of what is that? Of SV to HIV and humans may have occurred around 1920 in the same area. However, there are many documented cases

before 1959 where death patterns suggest HIV is the cause but blood samples can't prove it. God damn. So why would you create anything? Why would you create a family tree, bro? If that was the first known case, why wouldn't you destroy that fucking,

destroy it? They created the family tree after. But why? to try to like, why didn't need a family? They didn't know. Like contact tracing. Oh, you mean to find out

way it came from? Yeah. And where it went, maybe it went, you know, with the other people. All right. I'm stupid.

Trump booed. Stop hating on Trump. Trump had the Bronx going crazy. Trump booed at convention. Stop it. This is the libertarian convention. Donald Trump. Here's the thing, man, that I, that I...

Let's hear it. Shout out to all the questions from prison. That'd be mad, random. Without even trying to be one, that's nice. D. Roy wrote, Donald J. Trump will address the Libertarian Party and its National Convention on Saturday. The Libertarian Party should nominate Trump

for President of the United States. That's nice. That's nice. Only if you want to. to win. Only if you want to win. Maybe you don't want to win. Maybe you don't want to win. Wrote an article yesterday in which he mentions just some of the things that make me a libertarian. Listen, man, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Oh, shoot. He went out there in front of the libertarian party to try to win some votes. It is what it is. Like, he got booed. Okay. He's going to

win some. I, like, this don't bother me. Like, I don't know why people are even running with this. Put it like this. This is not indicative of how a lot of Americans feel about Donald Trump. Well, what is? What do you think? What's going to happen? What's going to happen in November? Yeah. Or what happened in

2020 when 70 plus million people went out there voted for him? Or what happened in 2016 when he won? Like, we sit here and we tell us we tell ourselves these lies about Trump. Like, people don't fuck with him. Yeah. It's this not true, guys. It's this not true women. Is this not? And it is what it is.

And you're going to have to do more than just tell us how bad he is or show us videos of him getting booed. Because the thing about this booing, I like a good booing. But not the way he handled it. He kept going. What do you like? I like when they cower a little bit. I like when they voice start cracking. You know what I'm saying?

I like when they keep shooting, shooting when they try to go through with the next joke. You know what I mean? I like when they try to try to stay on the joke they were on that got them booed in the first place but they're gonna make this shit make sense before they leave this fucking stage. Y'all gonna know you may not like this joke

but it's well put together. That's what I like. He didn't do that. He just kept talking like, these booze ain't even for me. You know what I'm saying? That's kind of fire. He just kept talking like...

He knows how to handle it. He knows how to handle it, bro. Hey, felt different. Fucking Nikki Haley just wrote on one of the, Nikki Haley Wrights finished them. To whom? On a, on a missile going to Israel. What?

Top U.S. politician, Nikki Haley said the Israeli leaders, America stands by Israel. Israel is fighting the enemies of the USA today. Don't stop until you win. Nikki Haley writes, finish them. America loves Israel on Israeli rocket, headed for Gaza. Jesus, God. Wow. Oh, my God.

They like blood, boy. Wow. You got, listen, they like blood. That's kind of unnecessary. It is. Yeah. Because it seems personal. Yeah.

It shouldn't be personal, right? No. Yeah, I don't. Hmm. Are there people that... How would you have felt if somebody wrote that on a bomb? For America? After 9-11.

No, that, we should finish it. Yeah. That's our beef. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? They did that to us. So that's how they feel? But she's not from there.

She's not from Israel. She's an American policy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Even if she, I mean, I guess, large supporter of Israel. You can support other countries. We should support our allies and we should back up our allies, but I think there's definitely... Don't make it personal.

Also, like, what's the timing? It's like, are they going after this domestic hub with, like, tons of innocent civilians right there? Now maybe isn't the right time to go finish them. if they're going after a military outpost where they know that there's not going to be any innocent civilians okay run it up maybe like it's unnecessary antagonization but it's that type of antagonization that

causes people to do things in America yeah why people hate America the way that they do yeah now you even double so yeah yeah I don't know I just think it's unnecessary uh saucy Santana is a man what is that play that Taylor he said it he said it

saucy is a man let's hear it Who's so annoying? Why? Oh, I'm about to say, don't you? That was just like soft. Like headlines. So everybody read the headline, nobody got the message.

When it comes to me, it's I was giving him. I'm a boy. I'm a man. I'm a nigger. Whatever y'all want to feel like. Regardless to how much you see that, sheds and nails. You know what I really hate because girls don't got the strength as niggers. They don't.

I grew up around. I grew up around the other girls. I hate when girls be like, oh, I'm a dog. I'm a man. I act just like a nigga out here. No, y'all don't. No, y'all don't. It's just not.

It's y'all just soft. Y'all are females. It's the estrogen, baby. It's not happening. You cannot move like a nigga. You cannot think like a nigga. You cannot act like a man. It's just not happening.

And I want you to stop lying to yourself telling y'all yourself that y'all want these niggins to tell y'all the truth. No, y'all don't. Baby, nobody don't want to hear no motherfucking true. And then when a nigga do start telling y'all the truth, y'all start bugging the fuck out and losing it, which is why the reason,

which is why the nigger, first place. And what fucking nigga telling me the truth fun? Bitch, you're that bold. Bitch, you don't give a fuck about me that much. When I tell niggas the truth, I don't give a fuck about me. They like my little side niggas. I'm not that in best. So here's the truth. Take it to leave. My bitch that I love, like, I'm in the field.

Bitch, I'm not telling you. I'm Jody. You know what I really hate. Because when Sons goes to the barbers, he'd be like, yo, for my beard, I want the chin scrap. Yeah. Like his beard looks so perfect. Perfect. Yeah.

Like it don't even look like a, like it's so perfectly manicured, so perfectly lined up. It don't even look, it looks like I can take it and I'm a head of Velcro as I'm peeling it up. Like, that's how it looks. That's a compliment, by the way. Yeah. Killing it. So this is what he did another video. So basically the internet blew up about this.

They were very upset. And who was upset? I guess females because they're looking at it. But what the fuck would they know? See. So what is he? They're mad because. to be a guy?

No, but they're saying, like, for him to say something about it. It's kind of dumb. I've rather this video of what he said here, but... Okay. Let's see it. They were mad, but because he's a, basically, fan buoyant male. Yeah, he's just a...

He's still a man. Yeah, but we look at it, like, you're trying to be us, though. Like, you got the lashes, nails. So we look at... First of all, I'm going to be honest. It's reasonable. Not reasonable? No, that's reasonable.

No, no, it's not. I'm going to tell you why. Why? The people I'll be seeing, the women who I be seeing hating on Saucy Santana be looking raggedy. They don't be looking like saucy. Oh. Saucy's nails is always done. Uh, face is always beat.

Get it. It be those girls I'd be hating on her nails, right? The raggedy one. That's what I'm saying. Yes, it do. Wow. You're not hate from nothing. It do be.

It's the girls that's not as well kept as this. No. Fly girls, I don't know. Fly girls. You know, that's not true. That's not true. He did the ones that compliment me all day. It's the old girls, it's the aunties, all them is not worried up. That's what, it's the one that...

Auntie stay hating, bro. Yes. Something about the aunties. It's the ones that look like they work all day. All day. Tireler had a great idea earlier. What she said? You was like, people should make pit stops for showers?

Back. You did say that. You was like, y'all, you're going to go. You said, you were like, I'm about to go home. And I was like... To feed my son. Like, stop. Stop.

Who's your son? So how do we end up talking about showers and shit? You just came up with it. No, that's not what happened. Yes, you did. Taylor goes, yo, I'm going to go home before the pot. And he said, yeah, that's good, you know, because it's getting hot our here. I was like, go home, take a little shower, come back out, you know what I mean?

I'm like, that's a dope idea, Taylor. Because girls get the wolf. They get the fucking wolf, especially hardworking motherfuckers like Taylor. Working hard. Are you serious right now? Girls, do get the wolf. They do. You do get the wolf.

That's really extreme to do that. I do y'all check? Yeah, how do you check the smells of Europe of the Chinese? Oh. And then do what? Once they let it, free. Oh, it just walks up? That's not true either.

No, okay. You rub it and then smell like this. What the fuck? How do you get? I thought I was talking about my saucy sand an. Yeah, then Taylor want to compete. Do you? You know what I'm here?

And you can't. You know, you really get it. You can't compete with sauce. That sauce. You already got nothing on big sauce. I promise you know what trying to compete with sauce. You don't got balls. Because you can't.

All I heard was much that stink. I'm raggedy or stank. Oh, God. My damn, Taylor. Why would you say that? Oh, God.

Because you do get your nails done. I do get my nails done. I do get my nails done. Why would you say that about yourself? Shaw, you got to give us some more top of it. No. Yeah, for real. She can't even wash.

She can't even wash. Why he's doing that? How much you say? They literally was like, he got time to get his name. I didn't like, I don't have time. Like he don't got a career. You do, though. I don't have time.

Actually, you know what, you're right. If I make time for it, he clearly, that's more. I'm going to fucking walk out. This is great. Yo, let me start. Y'all, y'all want to sponsor the next podcast, though. It's going to be a hot summer. A long hot summer.

Right. But Sothy did say something in this. that's true. That's not true. What's that? This is an old school. This is an old school player thing. This is how I know is really a man. I lie to you because I love you. Oh, yeah. I tell these bitches the truth.

Oh, yeah. Or my side chicks to true. Oh, yeah. I lie to you because I love. That is such an old school man thing to say. Like that's what men you've been saying since the 70s, eight. I lie to you, baby, because I love you. I tell these hoes. The truth because I don't care nothing about them.

Shut the fuck up. That is not true. Okay, you shouldn't be lying. You shouldn't have to lie to nobody when you really are player. Oh, shit. The game is that tight. It don't matter. Good.

Taylor? What? I'm not in these streets no way. What are you? What are you doing? I'm just out here, chilling. Then you just have a birthday vacation where you was... Yeah, and I was chilling.

What were you doing? Mm-hmm. Did you make a be in a pillow princess? No, I did get my foot massage, though. I only get a foot massage somewhere. Did you pay for it? I'm a foot whore for real. Did you pay for it?

No, he offered it. It is what it is. Wait, do you say you're a foot whore? Did you have a pedicure? Yeah, like, I love. Like, I love. Did you have time to get a pedicure before you left? A guy, if a guy wants to give me a foot massage,

it doesn't matter where it is. And you just say yes. Yes. Did you have a, I'm always prepared? I'm always prepared. Did you have time to get a pedicure? Yeah. Okay.

So they were done, right? Yeah. I was out time for a predicate care. But you don't have time to wash your vagina area? I didn't say that. I didn't say that. I literally did not say that. I just need to ask the question to clarify.

Y'all putting two different things, two different conversations is the one. That's not what happened. All I'm saying is if you're out here smelling like hot dog water is some problems. And you got a guy rubbing your feet thinking about to get a pretzel. Why, vagina has a first name is OS, O-S-E-A-R. But it's okay, the guys that... I don't want to hear my tail out of your tailor. You have set it up.

Because you stop. Damn. I'm sorry, saucy that you can't just get a little bit of shine out here without girls hating on you all the time. Why do you think it's a jealousy thing? 100%. Oh, wow. Jalty of what?

The nails did, hair did everything. It could be. It would be men, though. Like, I mean, if he wants to be gay, he's gay. It's fine. But I'm saying the real men out here, We don't want them to be trying to be competing against us Tommy more prettier than us.

Bless you. But clearly it's natural for him. It ain't in him. But he's getting... It ain't on him. It's in him. And I think he... I wonder if he's a bottom or a top.

Now you just hate... I mean, if you got the BBL, you didn't get that shit to be a top. Right, right. Yeah. He might go both ways, though. He looks like he would. What is the...

Get all saucy. Go to something else, man. Why y'all... What does Sophie do to you? This ain't. I mean, wait. Why are you calling it hate? It is crazy.

It is crazy. This is hate. Why? It's just bad. Shout out saucy, y'all. I didn't say nothing mean. To look just softy, man. You're a real G out here.

I don't even fuck what haters like Taylor be told me. I'm not hating at all. Yep. As he said, I didn't even say I want the straight men. Y'all really not like that. Y'all really not. I really want the straight men, though,

to stop trying to compete against girls. He's not straight. I know. I'm just saying in general. So why you blaming him for the straight men? But if I just said, because he can't win. This guy.

It is what it is. What's straight men trying to compete against girls? Damn. No. Damn. No. Damn. Matt Fett, let's pay some bills.

Let's do some asking idiots because I got to go run and do some more book trapping, man. Where you got next? I'm going to, where am I going to? I'm going to Gutfeld tonight, actually. Oh, what time?

That's what I'm going after I leave here? Okay. But y'all'll be fine because I'm on flagrant this week. Yes, sir. You're getting your flagrant and your brilliant idiots. That was a great episode, man.

What do we got? Let's do some asking idiots tale. I'd rather do asking idiots anyway because you get to talk to the people, man. Yeah, let's connect. Let's see what we got. Oh, great question. Mr. underscore Aluka says,

what are the values you look for when choosing friends? Charlie. What? Oh, I said, Charlie, what do you think? Oh, I thought you were saying me. I thought you were saying me. I thought that was flattering.

That's what I was my heart. That touched my heart. That was warm. No, no. Didn't mean that at all. What are the values I look for when choosing friends? Man, that's such an interesting question. And the reason it's such an interesting question is because you don't really get to know a person's true values until y'all have been friends for a minute.

Because usually, you know, when you're meeting a person, you're meeting a person's representative. You know, you're meeting the mask that person may be wearing. And you really don't know that person. So for me, it's an energy. Like, I can't describe it, but it's like everybody who's a really good friend of mine, it was some type of energy that drew me towards them. And that's why you've got to be very conscious of your energy, right, especially when it comes to women.

And the reason I say that when it comes to women is because you'll feel something, right? As a man, you'd be like, damn, something I like about this person. And a lot of times men translate that into, oh, I want to get with that person or I want to sleep with that person. But no, the same feeling you get when you meet a guy, if you're not, if you're not gay, right? And it's a guy you meet and it's something about the guy you like, right? And you're like, yeah, what am I drawn to about this person? And then y'all end up connecting and y'all end up building and y'all becoming real good friends over the year. You got to apply that to everything, right?

Because like I said, a lot of times when you have that with a woman, you automatically think it's some type of romantic connection there. You don't feel like that with a man. So you should look at all people, you know, through that lens. What is this energy that's drawing me to this person? And then the values, man, you'll just see over time. Because some people's values don't align with yours but for so long. Yeah. So y'all might be cool for 10 years, 15 years, and might not be people like y'all used to be.

Yeah. I had a lot in that over the last couple of years. A lot of it. A lot of it. And some of it wasn't even my doing. A lot of it was just me like, like, you know how you got a certain friends that you got to walk on an egg shells for? Can't do it. Can't do it.

Can't do it. I can't walk on eggshells for you all the motherfucking time. I actually don't know what you're talking about because I don't have friends like that. Well, it's friends that will get upset. Like, you know, any little thing can set them off. I can't do it. And if you've been friends with a person for someone for something. so fucking long, right?

And they should know you by now. You've been there for them. They've been there for you. Y'all have held each other down. Even if something happens between y'all that you may not necessarily like, right? Like the person said something

that they weren't supposed to say, you know, called somebody. They weren't supposed to call. Something, anything like that. You should know that that person had no ill intention because that's your actual friend. So if it's so easy for you to cut that person off because of a

petty misunderstanding. Y'all know it was cool anyway. Yeah, I mean, that's a fantastic answer. I think values I look for when choosing friends. So values are different than like characteristics, but like integrity is really important to me. And I like loyalty and then also humor. It's very important.

Yeah, and I mean, we're speaking about this earlier, but also I think your book demonstrates the importance of, I don't want friends that I have to have a small talk with. I want to be able to be myself. That might be selfish, but I enjoy being myself. So I want to surround myself with people that I can do just that.

And so, yeah, making sure that they're honest people, they're loyal, because that's what I'm going to give them. Once I'm close with you, I got your back forever. So, but most important. Only you can fuck that up. Yeah, it's true. Great up.

Like, yeah, it is, and then some people manage to. How crazy is that? The easiest thing to not. Those are self-destructive people. They can't help me. They can't. I'm realizing that, too, the older I get. It's like, because I'm so hard on myself that the first thing I do is I self-analyzed

and I makes, okay, what did I do wrong? Yeah. And after I realized, this shit ain't got nothing to do with me and everything to do with them, and then I start looking at their other relationships. And I'm like, hey, you fell out with that person. You fell out with this person. Eventually, it was a little. going to be my turn because that person is just a self-destructive individual who's destined to be

alone. Yeah. Yeah, it's tricky. But I think those, just making sure that I can be myself around you is ultimately, the more I can be myself around you, the more honest I can be, and then the deeper, the connection we can build. You need that shit sometime, man. I want to be, I want to be able to tell you I had a panic attack this weekend. I had bousal depression. You replied, that's gay. Yep. We laugh. That's it. Now you feel better. Now I feel better. Now I feel. You need to be able to do that. See, that's how it works, Taylor. Come on. Straight up. Stinking up the seat.

God, damn. Taylor. Today you wanted to go home and take a shower. No, it's not. Stop saying that. I did not say that. Yo, you clearly I have the same clothes on. Like, stop.

You bought it up early and I was like, that would be a good suggestion. I did not spray it up. All I said was, I'm going to go home. Is it diet, right? Can I have a son? Is it diet? Can you relax? You got to stop drinking Mountain Dew.

I don't drink. No soda actually. I feel like you drink malice. I have no soda. You did say this earlier though. No, I didn't. Taylor, come on. Take your own advice from your book. Get honest.

Okay, what did you say? What did you say? I said, I got to go home. I have a son to feed. That's what you call me? Yeah. You are. You are so.

When you hit it with the Monastat, you got to hit it with the Monastat 7. I hate this little baby hungry? Hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum. What is it wrong with you? I got a sun to feed. I hate you. By the way, that's what we're going to say all summer.

Whenever we're around anybody, they got that not too fresh feeling like, man, somebody got a sun to feed. Somebody's sunny. That's right. I hate you. Go on. Yo, all brilliant Indian listening.

If you're around anybody this summer and they got that must or they got that not-so-fresh feeling, that is the slang. The sun-to-feed. Somebody got a sun-deafee. Somebody got a sun-to-feet. Hungry.

Hungry. Y'all is hungry. Y'all are horrible people. Devin Air says is the reason y'all don't have more guests on the show because y'all are roasted. I hope not. I just don't, I mean, I like.

They said that they don't like guests on the show, though. I like coming and me and Andrew just eating it having a good motherfucking time. Chopin it out. Every now and then a guest be wanting to come through. I mean, guests be wanting to come through all the time. It's just like, huh, you know. They also got to like,

Dinnell is a perfect example of someone who could just roll with the vibe. That's right. I think that whoever the guest is, they got to roll with the vibe and they can't feel like an interview. That's right. If we're all just chopping it up, then that makes sense. So it's got to be someone we have rapport with. But also, it's fun to just come here and talk shit. And just talk shit.

Like, we do, you do interviews on Flavor and I do them on breakfast, like that shit is like, uh. Yeah. I'm about to start doing like more one-on-ones too because people have been asking. That's a great idea. So it's like, you know. Yeah. It's like I don't want to do that here. And it got to be people that can roll with it.

Yeah, that's the thing. Let's do, let's do one more. Let's get another one. Taylor, come on. I have one, actually, though, for y'all. Because I was having, like, not argument, but I need y'all to tell me what are the benefits of being married. What are the benefits of being married? Yeah, for men, yeah.

For men, you're asking? I was having a conversation with my friend who says, like, he doesn't want to get married. He's been married before. Oh. So why are we listening to? Oh, he's been married before. Okay, I'm about to say, why am I listening to him?

He's never been married, but he's been married. But I think he's taking his past relationship into now and the future. Probably. But so, what's your reason, though? For what? Getting married. I love my wife. Yeah.

I love my. Is it mostly for the woman then? No, I love her. We've been together 26 years. Well, yeah. So the answer is, yeah. It's for the woman. You found your husband.

That's what I'm saying. No, no, no. We're together and holy mackerel. Oh, I thought you meant. Sorry. I'm saying for a man. For a man. When you said it's the reason for the woman, I thought what you're asking is because you love that woman so much that you want to be with a life.

But that's what it sounds like. It's for the woman, really. Like if it was up to you guys. But you guys keep saying because I love my wife. I want to be with my wife for the rest of my life. I don't care what the government knows. Like if the government knows or not means nothing to me, I think that's a little more important for women. but I care about the idea of marriage

in that we are building a life together and we are making this commitment and that whatever troubles come our way, we are committed to working it out. This is something that we are building together. Right, but you don't think you could do the same thing without that title. What I said is the government knowing,

meaning the title, is unimportant to me. Right. But the commitment is consistent. Okay. So if the title wasn't there, I'd be fine as long as the idea going into it is that commitment. I think what often happens is if you're not willing to go through that process, sometimes it's indicative. Sometimes, not all times, sometimes it might be indicative of a lack of maybe commitment.

Yeah. And I like the idea of you and another person becoming one. Yeah. Building something, truly building a life together. Like, I love, I love, like, that McKelby party is six. Like it's that we have a life like I promise you sometimes I look around the house and I tell my wife to him like you really got a life together because we've been like you got to think we've been together since we was kids literally so there was no children there was no marriage there was no house no living together like all of that developed over time and it is a beautiful thing to watch two individuals become one yeah like you know your habits your rituals your celebrations your customs oh oh your holidays, like how you curate your life with somebody. And then, I mean, you know, this is brand new for me,

but like bringing a child into it is just the greatest blessing of all. New memories. Like, that's the flyest shit. Like, we're creating our own family memories. Not just creating our own family memories. We're doing things that bring all our generations of family together. We're creating our own traditions, like family vacations in the summer or, like, all of that.

That shit is dope. Having a mate, having a wife. Having a family is dope. Don't let nobody tell you otherwise. Do it. Do it. I took my daughter swimming yesterday. And like I'm with my wife and our little baby and she's taking a swimming lesson and I'm there like working through a swim lesson. It's like the most proud moment I ever had my life.

And that's possible. I mean, you could have a kid outside of marriage for sure, but it's when you have one where you guys have decided that this is going to be the most important thing that you guys do on your time here. on this earth and then you commit to it and then do it and you get to see them yeah it's just awesome i think marriage and i think marriage and children oftentimes gets a bad rap because people are just trying to like vent because there are stressors about it that's right but maybe we should be sharing a little bit more like how unbelievably awesome it is it is maybe people need to know a little bit more about yeah i think people go into or they just hear people i know about it all the time and it's hard this shit is the hardest thing you'll ever do right like it is hard but you'll be you're

bit-ass homeboy. Yeah. Okay. Whose marriage didn't work out. Stop. Stop projecting that negativity on everybody else. He's not projecting. We were just having conversations.

He is projected. If you approach this situation and you say, yo, marriage sucks. No, no, no, no, no. That's not what he said, though. What do you say?

We could get into a deeper representation about it. But I'm just saying he doesn't feel like he needs to be married. He's trying to set your expectations. What? Oh, God. Oh, shit. Yeah.

He, yeah. It's okay. Don't worry. Oh, shit, yeah. My bad. You guys. Feed your son next time. He might have a different to him.

Can you stop? That's what it is. The son was hungry. Stop. That's not what it is. You guys. He was like, nah, bro. He was like, nah.

The son was hungry as shit. And then they got into the conversation. And he was like, nah. I can't do this forever. Nah. I can't do this forever. Nah, yo. Be the beast.

Damn. Okay. So the truth is, this is my very close friend. for over 20 years. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I hooked up in Hampton homecoming. We know this story. No, it's not him.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We get it, Taylor. Taylor, it's okay. It's totally fun. I hate you. Taylor, we got to. My God. For real, no, for real, no.

You just got it. That was pure. That was beautiful and pure. I hate y'all. As always, wash yourself. Wash yourself. You go home and wash yourself.
