And why do you have her in your phone is thick? Yeah, even with the E. The E kind of crazy, right? Because the E make it look like she.
Starting point is 00:00:30 She really. Oh, that's funny. You went the other angle. You were like your wife would be upset if you had that person in your phone. Yes. I was thinking it was gay to put his name in the phone. Oh, so you was thinking Robin was a fucking...
Starting point is 00:00:45 You got to be like Robin Singer. Oh, I was looking at just Robin as a girl. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm looking at him as who he is. But do you put his name in your phone? No, not. Yeah. I got to be like Robin.
Starting point is 00:01:00 Yeah. You can't get a you up text from Rob. Ah, Robin Thick, you know what I'm saying? God, damn. Because that thought is in your mind every time you see him. You'd be like, yo, Robin Thick, and then you got to look just to see. You know what I mean? Take a little peek just to make sure he's as thick as he says he is.
Starting point is 00:01:16 And happy. You know what I mean? You should. It's only right. It's only right, dude. If Batman was a bat, was Robin a bird? Yeah. Well, Robin is a bird.
Starting point is 00:01:31 What? Never thought about. that type of shit. You know what I'm saying? Hey, whatever he's saying, that's a good ass point. That's a good ass point, whatever the fuck he said. You never thought about that. You never thought about that.
Starting point is 00:01:44 How was your weekend, Heather Kaya Walker? It was good, man. We were out of Salt Lake City, man. Oh, what happened? Salt Lake City got the prettiest white women on the planet, I think. Really? I think they've actually, I think it is number one pound for pound. Really?
Starting point is 00:01:56 Yes, yes. Is it polygamy, like legal there has some shit? I think the Mormons had it back in the day, but they switched it up. They don't really do that. But everyone's pregnant. Okay. It's every woman there is pregnant. They're all fucking dimes.
Starting point is 00:02:06 It's crazy. What makes a white woman pretty? Tell me, like, give me an example of like a beautiful white woman. No, I'm just saying for him. I want to know. Well, what made them pretty to you? When they had bodies like black women. You've seen one back in the day.
Starting point is 00:02:22 Yeah, yeah. I was, I was trying to do the thing with just me and you know what. We're doing. I'm just telling you, asking me a question. Let me give you an answer. I can't talk about the back in the days. Nah. I can't talk about back in the days.
Starting point is 00:02:41 You can talk about old work. Back in the days. When I was young, I'm not a kid anymore. But sometimes I said I wish I was a kid. But you like, you like. But you always like thick. You never got with any slim? Thick is childish.
Starting point is 00:02:59 Like, Dick I get. Like, you do it in, you know, you do it when you're, Excuse me. No, no, he mean white girls. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're not talking about sisters. Oh, God. Yeah, yeah. No, thick is, when you're in your teens,
Starting point is 00:03:12 when you're in your 20s, maybe your early 30s, thick is fun. But like, when you get older, like, slim as- Yeah, nobody really care about that shit. First of all, the reality of the situation is, you gotta be a certain level of guy. No, listen to what I'm saying. You gotta be a certain level of guy to have all those options.
Starting point is 00:03:29 This guy. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, but when you're young, you're kind of just getting what you, Yeah, but your imagination is all the options. We go off our imagination. I never cared about the thickness. What's going on?
Starting point is 00:03:40 What is going on right now? We're having the premise of this conversation is you like them when they're saying, no, no, no, you asked me what did I see in a particular brand of women? Yes. White women, yeah. No, you said, what makes white women beautiful? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, I really meant that, though.
Starting point is 00:03:58 I don't think that there's, I don't think there's anything specific to white women. women, they just happen to be white because everyone in Utah is white. Gosh. Like when you see it, they got beautiful women. Because you said white women. That's why I... Well, if everybody's there's white, they're the beautiful white women. Like, when I look at the women in New York and I'm like,
Starting point is 00:04:15 New York got beautiful women. It's everybody. No. Yeah, that's not a diversity. Nah. It's Puerto Ricans, bro. Come on. Bro, you're going to see the baddest Asian chick you ever see in your life.
Starting point is 00:04:26 You're going to see the bad. It makes an Asian woman pretty. Like, give me an example. I watch you go now. Can we get an example? Why can't we have no examples, bro? No. Like, why can't we get examples?
Starting point is 00:04:38 What does make an Asian woman pretty to you, Chris? We got a connoisseur. We got the Somalié in the building. Maybe we're not seeing something that he understands. What is, Chris, what makes... I only know what makes one Asian lady pregnant. Oh, and they all look... I knew you were coming.
Starting point is 00:04:57 I knew you was coming. I was like, who's going to dunk it? It's right there. No one. You can't be out of whooping that shit like that, Chris. Come on. Come on, y'all. Don't be just throwing it up like that.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Listen. Yes, but no. So, yeah, like, I'm in New York. I don't think Asian women when I think New York. Are you kidding me? Think Puerto Ricans. No, honestly. I think Borikas.
Starting point is 00:05:23 I think a lot of Puerto Ricans must have moved out of New York. New York was more Puerto Rican when I was growing up. That's a fact. That is a fact, right? When I was growing up, New York. was super Puerto Rican. And I think they might have moved to like North Carolina. I told me this the other day that there's been a...
Starting point is 00:05:40 They went to Florida? Puerto Ricans and African Americans has been a pretty significant exodus from New York over the last 20 years. They're still in the Bronx. They're still in the Bronx. Yeah, but I'm not. The Puerto Ricans still in the Bronx.
Starting point is 00:05:53 But they might be up there. Back in the day, it was like LES was all Puerto Rican. Fuck. When I grew up downtown was all... Alphabet City was all Puerto Rican. That's what I mean. I said, I think. What I think of New York, well, I guess you're right.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Now, I never, you know what's so crazy. I didn't even think about it, yo. You gotta start paying attention in this fucking city, man. That story of that woman who fell in that manhole is fucking so sad. Why is it a manhole? You know what I mean? Like, why's it gotta be a manhole? Like, why is everything bad gotta be about men?
Starting point is 00:06:22 Are black. No, you're fucking right now I get it. You see what I'm saying? Now I get it. You see what I'm saying? Yeah, the black plague. Why isn't it called a manhole? The black plague.
Starting point is 00:06:30 You see what I'm saying? Why is it got to be black licorish? Black liquor is the worst taste in. Look that up, Taylor. Why is it called a manhole? That's a good question. I never thought about that. Why the fuck is it called a manhole?
Starting point is 00:06:41 We don't have way more holes. They do have way more holes, but a woman would never be working on one. Oh. How often, I mean... It's called a manhole because it provides a vertical access point large enough for a person to physically climb down. Why isn't they called a person hole? I don't know. A human hole.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Well, it's the same thing when they have like men working. It's also women working too, like when they have those signs. No, they're not. It's an art. Like women at work. Sometimes you do see a woman work in a construction site. I'm not talking about like walking by with a little short dress on. That's not what I'm talking about either.
Starting point is 00:07:14 $10 on a lunch break. I'm talking about fucking with a hard hat. You know, whenever you see the women working on the construction site, what is it you feel? I've never seen it. You've never seen them. Like sometimes they're holding a sign. They'll be like, stop. Like if they put them out there for traffic, they'll be like, stop.
Starting point is 00:07:31 And they got to hold the son and that's their job. I promise you. I'm not saying that they don't. I've just never seen a woman on a roof. I've never seen a woman on a roof. Historically, I don't know if a woman's ever been on a roof. Nope, not even Mrs. Claus. Not even fucking ride with her husband.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Why the fuck Mrs. Mrs. Claus ain't never with her husband on Christmas? That's a good. That's a good ass. Is she never there? He got to make, isn't she the CEO of their house? I don't know what the hell she does. CEO of their house.
Starting point is 00:07:56 It's not a business. It's a business. It's not a business. He's not making it. They got to make sure the elves are in check and everything. It's a charity. It's not a business. But there's elves working.
Starting point is 00:08:06 Your wife doesn't come with you to work. Exactly. That's true. That's true. That's true. That is a one day's work. It's a goddamn good point. Yeah, because our wives have children to look after.
Starting point is 00:08:15 Oh, my goodness. Elves look after the elves. It's crazy. It's crazy Santa trust all the elves with his wife, though. You already know what time. You know what I mean? Every Christmas Eve, she can't wait for Santa to leave, yo. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:08:28 Getting a train ran on her key. Keebla crunch, the whole plane. You know what I mean? I believe they call it the Polar Express. The Polar Express. Listen, that shit was sad, though.
Starting point is 00:08:43 I heard that story and I can't get that shit on my mind. Did she pass? Yeah, they said she pulled up. I guess the truck hit the manhole cover and like 12 minutes later she pulled up and a witness said it was like, yo, it was like she disappeared
Starting point is 00:08:56 like on some movies. As soon as these stuff that her car just vanished. And they said it was It's so hot down there. Oh, no. That's what. The steam, they said she went in the cardiac arrest.
Starting point is 00:09:05 I think she was alive when they pulled her out because they put the burn blankets on it, but then she died at the hospital. That shit, yo. Holy God. Damn. I were even starting to pod with it. Because it was on my mind, so I had to share that shit. I'm trying to get that shit off me, bro.
Starting point is 00:09:18 It's like what Chris said is, what's our thing? Now we all in hell. How are you not her name? Donique. Donique. Just rest in peace to her, man. That story is so fucking sad, yo. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:29 Monica. It's just sad. It's just sad. It's just sad. Chris was like, 8 million stories in New York City. I'm like, I ain't never heard that one. That's a new one, bro. What's that? What did you say, Taylor? You said, eight million stories? You said, eight million stories in the naked city? You said, eight million stories in the naked city. And what is that supposed to mean? Well, at the time, New York's population was 8 million. It's probably close to 20 right now. But it's, it's probably close to 20 right now. But it's, it's a million. It's probably close to 20 right now. But it's, it's a lot. It was a saying that's... New York City's population is 20 million people. I think it's got me closer to that. Ain't no fucking way to 15. I don't even think it's in the tens. Not, I think the 10s.
Starting point is 00:10:08 Definitely to hell. New York City? Hell yeah. Wow. It's like 14 million people. Let's see. Look it up. Two kids, man.
Starting point is 00:10:16 That's just sad, man. So sad. Rest and peace to her, man. All right. Any kids? I mean, how many, how? 8.5, man. That's it?
Starting point is 00:10:25 Yeah. Yeah. What are you guys making? Let people lie. Why can't? Why can't we lie, yo? When I say 20? Why can't we say 20 million people on the fucking island, man?
Starting point is 00:10:34 Actually, you know what? One time you trust Asians with numbers. You know what I'm saying? I'll just agree. That's why I agreed with him. I'm like, 20 million people in Taipei. That's all I know. So I figured.
Starting point is 00:10:45 For now. For now. You include the whole metropolis. 20 in greater New York. Yeah, but nobody's asking about greater New York. Oh, New York theater. Hey, but all the Burroughs is 20. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:56 Nah. No. Burroughs, Long Island, Jersey. All the. They're adding other states. That's how they can't. They can't get out of this. Jersey. Tri-state area shit.
Starting point is 00:11:04 Jersey is the whole other state. You definitely can't count it. What else we got to tell? Let's get to it, man. You know? Tell me what you thought about the triple albums. The boys back. You think I listened to them shit?
Starting point is 00:11:15 You don't listen to any of them? That looks nice, man. Yeah, that's only one. All the ones are. Now, I did hear a bop off another one, though. Where? What's the one? I don't remember.
Starting point is 00:11:23 It's like one of the Miami bass beats. You know me. I'm a little thought that. I'm, you know, I'm a little thought on. You know what I mean? So it's one of them do-hm. I can't remember the name of it. I can't remember the name of it.
Starting point is 00:11:34 I can't mention you at all. Fuck what do you mention me for? You're not talking the most. I am not the person talking to more. What's the name of that record, man? It's not on Iceman though. But Envy play that shit every morning. That's shit is the back.
Starting point is 00:11:47 He never went anywhere. Thank you. Thank you. I'm glad y'all are back. Man, get out of it. Let the meat riding begin. We've been literally, I mean, saying that for, years.
Starting point is 00:12:00 You're still Drake. All you did was lose a fucking rap battle, bro. Cut it out. I don't know if you said that, that's all I said. You lost a fucking rap battle. It's all good, man. Let it go.
Starting point is 00:12:11 We could all change our minds, don't I know. Change my mind about what? Yeah, we can all change our minds about shit to happen, man. He's all good. You're still fucking Drake. You lost the rap battle. Can we just talk about how music is the most powerful thing on the planet? It's the only thing that is more powerful than pedophilia
Starting point is 00:12:28 the accusations. Yeah. Is the only, any other profession, you get even the accusation, it's over for you. Not in rap. It's rap.
Starting point is 00:12:40 Music too, MJ. MJ's movie did 400 fucking million dollars. If you put out great music, it doesn't matter. You know how music is great? How? Y'all don't even talk
Starting point is 00:12:49 about the accusations Drake made to old Kendrick. What did he say? Exactly. Because the music was that fucking good. That's the whole time. You didn't even think about it.
Starting point is 00:12:58 the star for Mario, it's the invisibility cloaks. If you make great music, we can push everything aside. It's the most powerful medium on the planet. Once again, over the last two years, Drake, screaming numbers stayed through the roof. He's got this narrative where he talks like the radio
Starting point is 00:13:14 wasn't playing them. Not fucking true. He had Nokia, all of that shit was on the radio. What did I miss? All of that shit was on the radio. It's just like, cut it out. You lost the rap battle. And the people are like, oh, music is back. Music's been here. It hasn't gone nowhere.
Starting point is 00:13:27 Why you have a pen on Drake? Music is back. Music is back. Stop. Your music is back. Music was gone for a little bit. You're glazing heart. I'm not glazing.
Starting point is 00:13:36 I'm just saying. The thing is nice. Can we give credit where credit is due? That's what Maga stands for. What is that? Make America glaze again. That's all Drake wanted. All Drake wanted was y'all to be back on your motherfucking knees,
Starting point is 00:13:48 even though you never left. You spent two years glazing them because you tried to convince people that he won something he didn't win. now, even with this album, it's like, this changes nothing. No, he didn't win the battle. No. Nobody's saying he won the battle. Yes, they are.
Starting point is 00:14:04 Yes, they are. Yes. Yes. All Drake fans be like, no, no, he's still. Yes. He won the war. He's going to win the war. How?
Starting point is 00:14:13 What war was there to win? Well, I mean, there was not, there wasn't literally a battle either. We're speaking metaphors. So, what's the war? When it's all said and done, he will go down as a much bigger artist. Stop. Is that what people? Stop.
Starting point is 00:14:26 100%. Like, it's not even close, 100%. The numbers will show it. Numbers lie. And you know how you know numbers lie? When it's all said and done, LeBron James is going to have every single record there is to have. Is he better than Jordan?
Starting point is 00:14:43 How many number of rings does he have? Six. LeBron? I mean, Jordan, that's six rings. Yeah, but how many? Four. Okay, so that number is telling the truth. So Robert Ory is better than LeBron James.
Starting point is 00:14:55 At winning championships. Man, cut it out. He has a team around him. Is he not better at winning championships? Tony Romo statistically is the greatest Dallas Cowboy quarterback ever. You make it my point. We know that not to be true. You make it my point.
Starting point is 00:15:08 How many rings you got? What number of rings has he got? How many rings is Kendrick have? He doesn't play basketball or football. So how many rings is gray at? He's got old. No. Kendrick has more Grammys than Jake.
Starting point is 00:15:22 Oh, y'all really put up, you care about the white music award? You know, you're so crazy. That's crazy. That's crazy. All of a sudden, y'all glaze the Grammys when it's valuable. I'm just telling you. I'm just telling you. I mean, the Grammy's a sippy cup.
Starting point is 00:15:36 To me, I remember that guy. The Grammy's a sippy cup. His thing, I don't care about none of that shit. I'm trying to win a bathroom. I just know that what we saw two years ago, we've never seen before because we've never seen two of the two biggest rappers of a generation go at it. because they're big rappers, not just culturally, they're big on every metric you can imagine.
Starting point is 00:16:00 We've never seen two pop stars go out of it. That's even better. I think that's it. Like, we saw rappers go out of back before rap was pop music. Now it is. That's even better. Pop music. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:16:11 Go ahead. Go ahead. I was saying, do you listen to all three? Fuck. I listen to Ice, man. I got kids. You listen to All three. I got kids.
Starting point is 00:16:19 I listen to Ice, man. I listen to Ice, man. And then I went through, I didn't go through none of them I went through a little bit of the other ones made about her but I mean I just popped around I went through I listened to Iceman
Starting point is 00:16:30 Listen here the thing Iceman got some slapers on it He can rap I've been trying to tell you guys this I'll say this I've been trying to tell you guys this for a fucking years I will say this and I thought about this Drake is a mood
Starting point is 00:16:44 Yeah Not too many artists can be a mood He's an actual mood Like when I think of moods This is the type of glazed I love Listen, Shadei is a mood. Erica Badu is a mood too.
Starting point is 00:16:56 No? You can be in the mood for Kendrick. Drake is our actual mood. And it's a mood I've never been in. Okay? That is a fucking fact. I've never been. You've never been in the mood for-
Starting point is 00:17:09 I've never been in Drake mood. Yeah, yo, Drake. Yo, Drake, I said this a long time ago on Vlad TV. I said, you know, there's three different identities, gay straight and Drake, sexual identities. But really, it's, It's the type of person. It's an aesthetic.
Starting point is 00:17:24 Who is the type of person that likes Drake? OVO Eli. Oh, my goodness. And he got to meet him. Look at it. Remember when you put up that video that dream, when they had that Drake party where everybody looked like Drake,
Starting point is 00:17:35 there's a look. And I ain't talking about mulattoes. It's just, it's a look that people who like Drake have. Got it. No, that's a, it's an identity. Hmm. It's an identity. It's that, that's not a look.
Starting point is 00:17:51 likes, it's the energy they all got, bro. Look at them. Am I lying? Yeah, they got that. You see what I'm saying? Come on, bro. That's what winning looks like. I'm just saying, that's what winning looks like, man. Man, shall I bow to Eli. I'm really happy. But I will say this, Iceman is cool. He got some shit on there that I like. I really
Starting point is 00:18:12 like the intro. The intro, I feel like he really dug deep. But, man, I'm going to tell y'all something. Don't ever let nobody know they got to you like the way Drake lets people know Kendrick got to him. Fuck all that Now fuck all that Don't ever let a motherfucker know They got to you The way Kendrick got to Drake Tell me, what do you mean?
Starting point is 00:18:32 What you mean? It's two and a half years later Not only did he sue, like I said he was going to do Okay, he won't stop talking about it He never fell out with all his friends Just because they liked Kind of like Kendrick music You got a bronze tattoo covered up
Starting point is 00:18:47 You know what I'm saying? No, that's got a bronze tattoo covered up That's crazy. You know what I'm saying? He covered up the tattoo. Got a bra on tattoo covered up. Got a blonde tattooing weight. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:18:58 Callet. Finally. Callet's in a tricky situation. Caled might start eating again. Callet might start stress eating after that shit, bro. I have a way out for him. Tell me. You got to join Hamas.
Starting point is 00:19:11 Past the only way. That's the only way. Shut up. He is the only way, right? Am I wrong? I think Drake put himself in a bad situation with that. Ooh, because you think he wasn't vocal enough about it? No, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:24 But it ain't his fight. Whenever you make that kind of claim against somebody, now people are going to start questioning you and saying, well, what have you stood up for? What do you stand up for? Why have, if you believe that, why haven't you denounce the Israel? Mark said, Great.
Starting point is 00:19:40 Mark said, if, if Callad joins Hamas, they've got to make the tunnels bigger. Let me shut. No, fuck. Oh, man. You know Cala can't get on no fucking paraglider. I said that, I said that. You can know that bitch, man. That's fucked up.
Starting point is 00:20:02 Get the fuck out of here. That's fucked up, yo. Listen, it's just a tricky situation because I also think that was very low. It's a bird. No, it's a plane. No, no. It's a good year plane. And on the side of red ice, you know, poop.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Okay. All right. Listen, I don't, I just think it's a tricky situation when you do that because don't, don't weaponize shit like that for, just because you're trying to take a stab at somebody or, you know what I mean? What did Callet do beforehand though? Why he gave nothing. Nothing. Like, that's, what, what Drake does that is so. What's the context?
Starting point is 00:20:42 I don't understand what you got to talk about. The internet has been on DJ Khalid, wanting DJ Khalid to say something about Palestine because he's Palestinian. And he refuses to say anything. You know, he just says love to everybody. Why is it mad at Calais? That's what we're trying to figure out. We don't know. Oh, I think I saw academics say because
Starting point is 00:21:00 Khalid was quiet during the whole Drake getting his ass kicked to Kendrick. What was he supposed to do? He never said anything. And then when it was over, he started promoting the two songs again. Apparently, after the whole battle, first time Drake even sees this thing,
Starting point is 00:21:17 or hears from him, he pops up on line and say, I got two Drake tracks. Yo, Drake is like, yo, bumbo-clot. Ain't this thing I've been looking for for this whole time? Drake had no choice. Two tracks with who?
Starting point is 00:21:32 Two tracks with who? Hold on. Two tracks with who? Bro, it's not like Drake was looking for him to slide. The nigger went ghost. First time he see him pop up. The guy said, I got two Drake tracks. Yo, Drake, it finally hit Drake.
Starting point is 00:21:51 nigga he's an opportunist He was trying to be Switzerland during the whole shit, right? Yeah And like some, it's hard What do you want to do? He don't even rap Yeah, but don't remain neutral
Starting point is 00:22:00 When I'm at war And do what you want me to say If it's If you're at war We're at war bro Well he's cool with Kendrick too Nah That's what I'm saying
Starting point is 00:22:11 Like his style of music Is working with all the artists Yeah but you get caught up Being neutral Like the same thing With the Palestine thing Like his style Of being an entertainer
Starting point is 00:22:20 is like I get to entertain everybody, but your people are going to want to hear from you. So there's a cost to trying to be something for everybody. And, Callah, you know what I mean. The beef was fully live. You weren't halal and got on your dean. And your people are still waiting for a free pile of steam. But apparently everything isn't black and white and red and green.
Starting point is 00:22:39 Has Drake said something? I don't remember. That's my point. I just said he signed some letter back in the day, whatever. But it's not even just about this one issue. Now people are going to be looking for him to be super vocal. and what's going to happen when he's in an interview and if somebody asks him,
Starting point is 00:22:53 why do you want Palestine to be free? And you're Jewish, Drake, if you want Palestine to be free, why haven't you said anything about, you know, how the Israeli government is doing this to the people of God? He's going to say, I said a lot of Arabic words on the album. I guarantee he's going to say muchala. No, whatever that shit is, shaboying. What's that shit?
Starting point is 00:23:14 What's the shit? Abipti, Mushalah. Like, he's just going to say all the Arabic words. that the white people say now. You know, white people don't ruin. Insula, they don't, they don't ruin, they don't ruin all this. Yeah, Mirza Ali.
Starting point is 00:23:30 White people be like, Mercia Ali, you know what's the word that white people found that they ran into the ground? Woke. Definitely woke. They ran, y'all ran woke into the fucking ground. That's not even run into the ground. That's like co-opted in a different way. Yeah, but I still ran it into the ground.
Starting point is 00:23:46 What's a cool word? Y'all said woke so much. I wanted to wake up. Like, everybody wake the fuck. That shit is silly. I'm trying to think. Slay. Slay or like...
Starting point is 00:23:56 Nah, no, they didn't run Slay into the game. My kids, all they say is Slay. Really? Riz. Riz. They're saying it. But I thought Riz was white people. I never heard Riz.
Starting point is 00:24:05 Riz is white. Yeah, Riz is white stream. Oh, that was... Start with white. I'm saying Slay started like gay gays. Slay started with the gays. Anyway, there's terms that like white people have been like, oh, this is a thing and then we're going to run into the mud.
Starting point is 00:24:16 And they're doing that shit with all. All the Arabic words, man. I never heard it. Say again? I never heard a white person use them. You never heard a white person go, inshallah. We knew that. They'd be like, Mersh'A Ali.
Starting point is 00:24:28 I'll tell you this, man. Motherfucking. You broke it. Yes, he did. Me too. I didn't mean to. I swear I didn't mean. Give me it.
Starting point is 00:24:36 Listen. Give me it. What you mean? What you mean? I couldn't remember what direction I was been. Righty, tidy, lefty, looosey. Iceman is cool, but it's The same old, same old to me.
Starting point is 00:24:50 That's what I was going to say, too, though. I was a hate it. Drake is check for late. No, he didn't, though. So then you need to listen to Mada Bona, because Mada Bona has a lot of different type of music. I heard that, I heard that. That one is like,
Starting point is 00:25:00 now he heard on the album. I don't know. I don't know. Some of them. No, no, I haven't heard that. I heard that. It's the verse. Some of them I had to be known.
Starting point is 00:25:08 It's like summer songs. It's club songs. Like, that's if you just want to vibe out and have fun, yeah, there's no. If you want rapping bars, bars, you've got Iceman. Yeah. stuff you got I beefed it. Listen, I like when Drake raps, you know what I'm saying? But once
Starting point is 00:25:23 again, I'm just, I can listen to Drake one time and be cool with it. You know, I'm not revisited the music. They're trying to say, though, that he's still not suing Kendrick. It's the United. Ah, tomato, tomato. Okay, who gives a fuck? It's like Call it before
Starting point is 00:25:38 and after pictures look the same. Okay, nobody cares. All right? Like, get the fuck out of here. You know what I'm saying? Like, whatever. Okay, you shouldn't the suit at all. It was no reason. in the suit. And once again, man, y'all gonna, I will never let nobody know they got to me the way
Starting point is 00:25:54 Drake lets the world know Kendrick got to him. But he's sensitive, man. His whole, his whole vibe has been sensitive for the last fucking two decades. Can't be the ice man. It'll be sensitive. You gotta be cold for real. Okay? Your heart got to be cold for real. I like that. Okay?
Starting point is 00:26:11 If you're going to be the ice man, unless, of course, your inspiration is the Iceman superhero, Bobby Drake, because he's gay. Okay. Maybe that's what he's mentioning. No I'm saying. He's putting out.
Starting point is 00:26:22 He's gay. Okay. You know crack is back? What? Crack? Crack fucking cocaine. What happened? That shit is back.
Starting point is 00:26:33 I knew it was going to come back, though, because cocaine is back. No, that's an economy thing. You think so? Crack. I know. Like, what are you talking about? No, crack is back. Look it up.
Starting point is 00:26:43 Crack is back, yo. That shit is crazy. I'm just, yeah. What? Why? Huh? Huh? I don't know, man.
Starting point is 00:26:49 We just parding. Why the shit gotta make sense? No, I'm not. You know, I'm gonna follow you. This shit is crazy. Like, yo, why this shit have to fucking make sense? What made you think crack is back? Where'd you see a story that said that?
Starting point is 00:27:04 I don't know. We didn't. He just, I saw a video of two people smoking crack under a blanket on the subway. I saw that shit. Maybe that was it. No, I don't lie. I haven't made that up.
Starting point is 00:27:13 There was a moped law that was passed that people keep DMing me about. Did you get DMs about that? Yeah, man. My mayor's doing good work. out there. Yeah. So what was the law that was passed? Marsha Allah. Masha Allah. Yeah. They're gonna get upset at you why. They go and get tight. Usala, baby. All right. Now, Zoran doing good work.

But you should have a hard dick no matter who you're putting it in. And that dig is going to be hardest with Blue Chew.
Starting point is 00:33:16 Blue Chew, man, have they got your back? They got the Blue Chew gold. It's absolutely incredible. Under 15 minutes, your heart? Think about that. That's only 15 minutes of chit-chat before you get busy. So what I want you to do right now is I want you to go to bluechew.com and I want you to use that promo code idiots, okay?

And right now when you buy two months of bluechew gold, you're going to get your third for free with the promo code idiots. You know the other day, right? Because we always had this conversation about the face of the league and not be a foreigner. No, of course not. Can't do it.
Starting point is 00:33:56 Because everybody in this room knows that if Victor Wimbiana. Wemniana. Was from Detroit, Michigan. Yeah, he'd be five-seven. He'd be five-seven. Because he'd been eating on time-full vegetables his whole life. You need that French food, that poor shit. Where was Sean Bradley from?
Starting point is 00:34:15 The future. Whatever the fuck. All I'm saying is if he grew up in Detroit, Michigan. That was a country fat boy right there, Sean Brown. That's what I'm saying. He was like 7-6. But that's like Ohio or something. Well, whatever.
Starting point is 00:34:25 If Victor was from anywhere, in America. They were giving the league. Give it. His cultural cachet would be through the roof. We never seen no shit like that motherfucker. He's got the, right now he's got the perfect fucking thing, right? They call him the alien.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Yeah. They just put out the files two weeks ago. Yeah. Where are the commercials where people are spotting him like a UFO? You know what I mean? Where are the Crop Circle commercials? Guess what? They got him.
Starting point is 00:34:52 I had no idea. I was having this conversation this week with somebody and they was like, No, he got commercials. They showed me commercials from two years ago with these same angles and we don't even know about him. At least I never see him. You ever seen The Victim with me on a Cropster commercial
Starting point is 00:35:07 where they zoom out and it's like his logo in the field. No, no, I haven't seen it. They aired a commercial the other night during the first game and went to the conference finals. It was like alien sighted, alien sighted. Nobody's even talking about it.
Starting point is 00:35:22 Because they're not doing it right. You got to have him jumping over the border wall. That's the alien. that's the alien that actually would work, I think. If you had him jumping over the border wall, you don't think that that would go crazy viral? So what's so crazy? That's the reason it's not working because he's not from here.
Starting point is 00:35:39 So he's really an alien. He's just the legal one. Yeah, exactly. You know what I'm saying? So it's not resonating. It's not connecting. It's just something about not being from America that for, like shy and fucking victim, but especially victim, bro.
Starting point is 00:35:54 The league should be there. If Jokic too. If Jokic was from Kansas. Forget it. Man, get the Yellow Brick Road. Forget it. What? Forget it.
Starting point is 00:36:03 But that's my point. It's just, we've never seen anything like Winbiana. Do you remember Shaq when he first came into the league? Yeah. Hype City. LeBron James, when he first came into the league. Hype City. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:15 They transcended basketball. Now, anybody who watches basketball will tell you, no, you know, they're the best on the court. I'm talking about people that transcend basketball. Do you know what Victor Winbionna is, Taylor? No. No. But isn't it nice that it's not a racial thing
Starting point is 00:36:29 for once? It's never when it comes to basketball. Never. Never, never when it comes to basketball. Never. Never. Yeah, there was a little. There's always...
Starting point is 00:36:41 The fucking 70s. Race plays a part in everything, but what I'm saying is in this specific thing, regardless of their race, right? You got like the white guy, Yokish, you have black dude, shy, and then you have Wembeñana
Starting point is 00:36:52 who looks black, at least. Maybe he's mixing. Yeah, he's definitely black. But like... A French black. Whatever the fuck, I don't... It doesn't matter. They're not from here.
Starting point is 00:37:01 You know? And Ant would have the league. Ant would have the league. He would, but not like Victor. He would have the league if he got a... We've seen Ant before. If he got a mastectomy, he'd have the league. We've seen Ant before, though.
Starting point is 00:37:15 Like, Aunt can be compared to the Jordans. He would have to leave because he's an American as what I'm trying to say. His is incredibly charismatic personality. His game is unbelievable. But... It's got to be something we've never seen. before, though. Because think about it, when LeBron, LeBron was such a phenom, like,
Starting point is 00:37:30 LeBron was on Sports Illustrated when fucking middle school, high school type of shit. Like, you've never seen anything like that. Steph, we haven't seen anything like... Let me ask you a question then. Shouldn't Brunson be much bigger than he is? Because at this point, he's the best player in the Eastern Conference. He's in the biggest market.
Starting point is 00:37:46 There's two teams left. He's the best player in the Eastern Conference? Here's the thing with... Yonnes? As a Sixers fan, it pains me to say it. It pains me to say it. last two teams left? Yeah. Is that what you're trying to say? Like, he's the best player in the Eastern Conference.
Starting point is 00:38:01 Finals or the entire Eastern Conference? I love Jalen Brunson, but Donovan Mitchell and James Hardin are very comparable. Like, they're not James anymore. Hardin's done. You'll take Brunson over Mitchell, Donovan Mitchell? Yeah, sure. I mean, it's easy to say that now because he's winning. What I would say is this.
Starting point is 00:38:21 Jalen Brunson is the best player in the Eastern Conference? Sure. Wait a minute now. Hold on that. Because of the last two teams left. Jason Tatum, Jalen Brown. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:36 Yonnis. Okay, okay, okay. What are we talking about here? I got to be honest. You kind of have to put him in that combo. Okay. You can put him in, yes,
Starting point is 00:38:44 but not the best player. Okay, let's pull back. Let's pull back. He's going to be, in all likelihood, the best player on the team that comes out of the Houston Conference. Where goes? Okay, so let's pull back.
Starting point is 00:38:54 In the biggest media market. He's one of the, He's one of the best players here. Here's the one issue about Jalen. He's so fucking good. I don't even think when people watch, they get why he's good. Like his game is,
Starting point is 00:39:12 this is going to go super glaze right here. He's not fast, like at all. But he's so intelligent that he uses your body's movement against you He's so, he gets you moving in directions and he can make up for the fact that he doesn't have speed
Starting point is 00:39:31 by using his weight and getting ahead of you, leaning back on you. Like, he is... Now, be honest, though. Yeah. He's unethical. He throws himself into people a lot. He's a real foul baiter in that.
Starting point is 00:39:43 Let's not be gay. This is the Knicks now. We're talking about the Knicks right now. Okay, let's... I think he's a fantastic player. There were three plays last night where he absolutely threw himself backwards into people. Sure.
Starting point is 00:39:53 The point I'm trying to make is he is maximizing everything that he has. And that should be relatable because he has a game and a body. But that's not how people play. Fans could replicate. People don't want a relatable game. No, exactly. They want a game that is completely unrelated.
Starting point is 00:40:08 That's right. But they don't like bigs. Nobody's ever, like it's very hard to market a sneaker after a big. Like if you look at sneakers that do well, it's all guards, right? Maybe you get into like small forward territory. What about when you are big that can play like a guard? Like Victor Wimbiana? Well, Victor might have it, but like, for example,
Starting point is 00:40:28 none of us are going, damn, I want Victor Weniano's game. Because he's not American. No. Oh, and he's also 7-6. Exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's like, you want AI's game. You want a guy who's 5-11.
Starting point is 00:40:37 Yeah, yeah, you can really. You know what I mean? And then you're like, man, that's, you want Steph's game. This guy's 6-2, 6-4, whatever the fuck he is, but he's just bawling on everybody. That's the guy, Isaiah Thomas. You know what I mean? It feels attainable. It just, if you shoot from half court once and it goes in, you're like, whoa, I'm Steph.
Starting point is 00:40:54 Exactly. You know what I'm saying? But it's not only attainable. It's just like the type of game you would want. Whereas I think with Jalen, I think when people watch, they don't even realize what he's doing when he has the ball.
Starting point is 00:41:05 He's not just blowing by you. He's getting by you. He's holding you off. He's finding the tiniest little window to get a shot up. It's the angles. It's unbelievable. I'll be honest with you.
Starting point is 00:41:15 I prefer a Shaq's game, though. Just be so big and dominant. You just get around the rim and just dunk on people. But how many times you buy Shaq's sneakers? What? you were down that bad. No, man.
Starting point is 00:41:28 The one of them shacks was all right. The ones that had all the colors. Yeah, it was Reebok. He first had a reboc. The one that had the shack where he's hanging on it. It was like it was like the colors of the Orlando Magic, I believe. Yeah. Payless.
Starting point is 00:41:39 No, no, it was before. He had a Reebok deal, if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, yeah, Reebok deal. And then he went and did the pay list. Yeah, he had Reebok before. But I used to like that game. But I'm just saying if Victor was from fucking anywhere in America, bro. This is what the third year?
Starting point is 00:41:51 But then he wouldn't be Victor. Why not? because a lot of what makes him successful is his lifestyle, his approach. You know, he has a very European approach. He's Kevin Durant. He goes to bed at 10 o'clock every night. He's not on social media.
Starting point is 00:42:06 He has a special diet. Chris, you think that these players here don't have discipline? You think these guys didn't have special diet? I think there's a difference between a player. You think Kobe didn't have a spec? Kobe Bryant. Where did Kobe learn his skill set? Europe.
Starting point is 00:42:18 Philly. No, Europe. Stop it with that. Stop it with that. Stop. LeBron don't have discipline? Italy. You're going to tell me next
Starting point is 00:42:26 that Italians are good to making pizza LeBron don't have discipline, Chris? He has discipline, but I think as a rule, players who come up through the AAU system are cut from a different cloth than people who come to the European That's why we never get an NBA back. You never get it back, y'all.
Starting point is 00:42:42 Y'all just want to give every fucking piece of credit to foreigners. Why we can't build a wall around NBA? What a fuck? No, I kind of want to tap your point. There's somebody going to edit and play. Why we can't build a wall? Why we can't build a wall?
Starting point is 00:42:53 Come on, come on, come back, baby, come back. We open it up the strain of our moods. Come back. You go to the game last night. I didn't want to jinx it. I went to it. All right. So how?
Starting point is 00:43:06 I watched the whole game, and it was the most amazing game I've ever seen in my entire life. That was, it was a phenomenal game. I can't. I was a lot of game. Let me stop that, yo. You've seen a lot of games, bro. That wasn't the most amazing game. The most amazing game I ever seen in my time.
Starting point is 00:43:20 Stop. All of me. I watched it. It was great. was crazy. I've watched a lot of basketballs we all have. There's two games that I remember vividly. Willis Reed? No. What? This one. This will, I will never forget this game and that comeback. And then Andrew Shultz versus Jason Williams. Those two games are the greatest athletic performances that have ever existed. No, listen, you know, last night, all my, all my
Starting point is 00:43:47 Texas, all my group chats. You're Brunson on some Jordan shit right now. So what does that tell you? We've seen other games that were better. Okay, this was great, though. It was great. All right. How old are this group chat?
Starting point is 00:44:00 So all damn near 40, 45 plus. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I hate these youngans talking about Jordan. Nick's game was great. Spurs, Oklahoma was a better game. That shit was crazy. You have to understand, we're watching it as Nick's fans. Oh, sure, sure, sure.
Starting point is 00:44:14 So that adds a whole different. If that's your team, it's the greatest team. But as impartial observer, first is a little bit. Sure. I completely get someone who doesn't have an attachment to the Knicks. But when you're looking at this and the entire year, we're playing well and you're just waiting for the moment where the ball's going to drop, you're like, oh, we're going to fuck it at some point.
Starting point is 00:44:34 And then game one at home, you're like, we're down 420. We're like, here's the moment. Everything I thought that might happen, these horrible thoughts creeping into my head. It's true. and then they go on this comeback, and Jalen Brunson just devours James Harden. James Harden was a lockdown defender at one point of time. Do you remember James Hardin O. I've never seen that in my life.
Starting point is 00:44:57 James Hardin Ocase. James Hardin was a decent post-defendant. James Harden was a decent man. Remember he was coming off the bench for him? Nobody ever said James Hart. Lockdown. He couldn't play defense to save his life. You never know.
Starting point is 00:45:10 What are you talking about? Not basketball. James Hardin. Underrated post-defendant. You're not basketball. No. You're not basketball. James Hardin, being out here, raw dog, unprotected, bro.
Starting point is 00:45:19 You're not all in James Hart. You know. What ain't no fucking, it's James Hart in defense? James Hardin, bro? OKC, James Hardin, lock down defense. Nah, nah, no, no. Telling you. That never happened.
Starting point is 00:45:32 Y'all just don't know basketball. If you don't know basketball, that's fine. Let's just have that comment. So what happened? James Hardin happened. He got old. He got old. I don't, never remember this.
Starting point is 00:45:41 He's partied. He's at Magic City. The guy likes to go out. And we told the hose in New York, hey, drain them. I put out a fucking bat signal to the hose of New York. I said, listen, these guys are coming from a place that doesn't have parties. It doesn't have restaurants. It has nothing.
Starting point is 00:45:56 They're going to come to the city. They're going to want to indulge. We did. Let them indulge. We did. I definitely picked the Knicks to go to the finals. Remember last year we was like, Tyrese Halliburton is hurt. Fucking, I think Janus was injured at the beginning of the season.
Starting point is 00:46:10 Jason Tatum was out for the season. Even if they were there. The Knicks had a straight. path. That's why Brown should have went to Cleveland this shit. I mean, that would have been crazy. He should have, I mean, nobody's going to bypass 50Ms, even though I would think if you're a billionaire, you would. He got 50?
Starting point is 00:46:24 50ms from the Lakers. But if he would have bypassed that he could have opted out, signed in the fucking calves, boom. I think he does that this year, though. I think he goes back to Cleveland for his last year. Why? It's your swan song. It's literally the best scenario for him. No, you gave them a chip. You owe them nothing.
Starting point is 00:46:42 But that's home. It's for your last. You go back for you last year. Let's move out of Cleveland this now. Nah. And they're still going to be good next year. They got James Hardin. They got Donvin Mitchell. You go there, you compete.
Starting point is 00:46:54 You go to the Eastern Conference Finals next year. Hardin might have to retire, bro. Seeing what, I mean, Mike Brown even said it. I don't know if you guys saw the post game, but they're like, were you targeting James Hardin? Like, sometimes teams target Jalen Brunson. And he was like, yeah, that's exactly what we were trying to do. Like, they were creating screen switchoffs so that, Jalen would just consume James Harder and James couldn't do nothing about it.
Starting point is 00:47:18 That was like the last seven minutes of the game. That was when we made our 20 point. But that's my point. Like they was up 22. You can't say he did it. It was up 22 before that happened. Yeah, well, they should have that strategy early. He sold on offense too.
Starting point is 00:47:29 It wasn't just all the points. Yeah, he couldn't get a bucket. He was tired. I was texting with a Knicks fan when the Cavs were up 20. He's like, we've lost this one. I was like, trust me. I've seen the James Harder movie before. He will fall apart going down.
Starting point is 00:47:41 You won't know how superstitious I am? Yeah. We're down fucking 20-something. Okay, Charlotte? Mm-hmm. My wife comes in, we start getting to an argument about something. Right? I'm already pissed because the Knicks are fucking losing.
Starting point is 00:47:53 Now my wife is arguing me about some shit. All of a sudden, during this argument, we start coming back. Keep the argument going, baby. I stretched that motherfucker. Keep talking to go. We were arguing about shit for four years. See what I'm saying? I sacrificed my relationship.
Starting point is 00:48:10 You see what I'm saying? You see what I'm saying? That's why they're going to game. Game two, you got to start first quarter. You know what I'm saying? First quarter, it'd be like, in another thing. I was busting out all the shit. How many nannies do we need?
Starting point is 00:48:23 Damn. I mean, you're at home anyway. How many nannies we need? Damn. So how tough are the tickets? Well, we know how tough they're going to be, but how hot a ticket will it be if they make the finals? Listen.
Starting point is 00:48:39 Is that going to be the toughest ticket? What's the best matchup? Is it New York? York O'KC or New York? Oh, there are people who say, oh, gee, is a good matchup for Wembe. I kind of see what they're saying, so. Nobody's a good matchup for Wembe. Here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:48:52 Here's the thing. This is, can I give you the delusional Nix take or the irrational Nix take? Yes. Okay. Nobody's a good matchup for Wembe. We agree? Absolutely. The Knicks happen to have tall mobile guys.
Starting point is 00:49:06 So you can throw Mitchell Robinson at him. Mitchell Robinson is a guy who can defend a big, like, Wembe at the three-point line if he needs to. Cat is a lazy defender, but he is a guy who is like, he's capable if he wants. If he wants to, and I imagine he's going to have some ego going into that game.
Starting point is 00:49:22 Everybody's saying, this is the nicest guy. Fuck that. Let's go. So to me, I'm like, we have two guys that we can throw out Wemby.
Starting point is 00:49:30 You're not going to contain Wemby, but you can at least take a little pressure off. There's only one, I think the best way to defend Wemby is beat him up. Yep. Beat him up. He's got beat him up,
Starting point is 00:49:38 yo. You got to say two guys. Everybody beat this dude up. Yep. Beat him to, fuck up. That's the best thing you can do. I'm gonna tell you something that I saw in Victor the other night. Victor got some
Starting point is 00:49:48 killer in him, bro. He got some killer. He got that that three was scary. Yo, but he, it's the look in his eyes. Like, he was mad that shy got the MVP. But that's not a, that's not a, like have the French ever won a war? You got to take him into the
Starting point is 00:50:05 trenches is what I'm trying to say. We're about to see nah, this is it, but that's what I'm saying. We won't see, this is these next two series? You're going up against a Canadian kid. With all due respect, he's not going to throw an elbow in your chest. That's what they need, though. Come to New York City, it's going to be a very different type of game. That's what you got.
Starting point is 00:50:22 That's what we need. It's going to be a very different type of game. And it's going to be an elbow in New York resident, Nas Reitz. Chint the other day. Who did? Wimby. Whimby? Throw an elbow.
Starting point is 00:50:33 Yeah. It was an accident, though. Let's not act like he meant it. No, he meant to do. He's tall as shit. He just don't even know his body yet. He liked that shit in front of the fucking tax stores. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:50:42 He's still learning his fucking body. I'll tell you what, though. The reason I want the Spurs to win this series is because I need to see if the theory that a foreigner cannot be the face of the league stands true. Because if Wimby beats OKC comes to New York, national stage,
Starting point is 00:51:03 biggest media market, this alien, dominates like we know he can. But still, still they're not like, yo, that's the guy. That guy is leading the NBA. into the future, even though he is going to leave that man in future. But I'm talking about transcends basketball. If a Spurs, Nick's series can't make Wimby Transcend
Starting point is 00:51:20 basketball, I don't think nothing can. If it's Nick Spurs, I think it's Nixon five. Against the Spurs? I don't even think it will be difficult. Can you name another guy on the Spurs? Yes, Dylan Harper. Stefan Castle, who'd be a great matchup with Brunson. Ron. Ron Harper's son and Dillon Harbor.
Starting point is 00:51:46 Fucking Darren Fox. What you want on Brunson is you want Maxie. No, Maxie can't guard. It's not about guard. Make him work on the other end. Exactly. You want to make him work on the other end, right? And they'll switch you off.
Starting point is 00:51:59 They'll do art. But you want to make him work on the other end. And then you want a guy that's going to pick him up 94 feet. Right. Because the thing with Brunson is, and this is why I think what they'll do is have someone else bring up the ball. As nice as Brunson is in the half-court offense, He doesn't have the breakaway speed to bring up the ball 94 feet.
Starting point is 00:52:17 He can do it, but he's going to have to pivot four or five times. He's going to take six seconds off the fucking shot clock. And now you're in your offense late. And that's what Indiana did brilliantly. Remember what Indiana did? Where it's just like in the half court offense, you can't stop them. But they made him take eight seconds to get up the court. So then they just started letting Bridges bring it up or whoever bring it up.
Starting point is 00:52:35 But I think if you have a speedy guard that's just going to pester on defense and then against him, some who's just going to attack nonstop and drain them, there's a potential situation. They need to unblock Oakley, let Oakley back in the garden. Can he still block from the garden? The fuck is he going to do? I thought I saw him there the other day.
Starting point is 00:52:56 I'm pretty sure he's still blocked. That's fucked up, man, because they got a nice little Knicks roll where it'd be like, Ewing, Larry Johnson. Tickets or they're free? They who? When do you see, like, Ewing and Starks and Spreewell? I would hope they get comped.
Starting point is 00:53:08 I would hope so? No, no. How the fuck would you do? charge them Nick's Legends. Those are tickets that probably would go for what? Ten grand. They're comp. Yeah, but it's just something about seeing them in the building, man.
Starting point is 00:53:20 You know what I mean? Routing for the day. Like, it's just that gives the team a different energy. Everybody on the floor almost is, is comp. Oh, really? The Celebrity Row too? Definitely the celebrity row. But almost everybody.
Starting point is 00:53:30 I mean, there are a few seats that people will, like, pay for, but for them. If you perform at halftime, you get tickets. I know that. Oh, yeah. Like, Fab got tickets last night. Do you think the Knicks reserve more celebrity comp seats than a normal Olympia team? Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:53:42 Just because there's such probably LA. There's a whole restaurant up there. There's a place where you sit, you hang out, you can get food, you go there before the game, and you go there during halftime. And it's just everybody who's in celebrity row.
Starting point is 00:53:54 But is that also season ticket holders or just a celebrity? They don't sell, like, in my understanding, they might have like a handful of courtside season tickets that they sell. But then that's a guy who's the head of a hedge fund or something.
Starting point is 00:54:05 Or somebody who like knows Dolan or knows the name. for like decades. I don't think you're coming in and going, I want to get that seat because it's probably more valuable to them to just make sure that they can take care of all the celebrities and all the different people that are helping out in different various things. What does that matter anymore? What about Spike? You think Spike? Where do you pay someone's tickets? He might. Spike pays for a ticket. He might, but it's like they're allowing him to pay for it. And there might be some arrangement where it's like you can't sell them on the secondary market.
Starting point is 00:54:37 So if you're not going to do it, you let us buy it back for you and then we'll sell. also had those probably since the 90s. Exactly. When it wasn't as tough. Woody Allen, another example. Court side seats. Like, let's say he's in. Yeah, he's innocent.
Starting point is 00:54:50 That's crazy. Just like MJ, right? Michael Jackson is definitely innocent. What's going on with Trump then? Why is he not doing it? Why do you think? Just saying, it's ridiculous. Yeah, you're right.
Starting point is 00:55:02 It is ridiculous. Huh? I'm thinking why is it in Trump doing the same thing as Epstein? Wait, wait. What? I don't understand what you're saying, why isn't he arresting people? That too, or the other... He's the president of the United States. Yeah, but no one.
Starting point is 00:55:19 You can't arrest yourself. Massey has some theories on that. Oh, he does. What did Massey say? They got Matthew to fuck up out of here yesterday. They got about... What do you say? What do you say, Chris?
Starting point is 00:55:30 There's a group of businessmen who made it their business to make sure that Trump never less that information get out. Oh, I believe, of course. I believe that. Of course. He's one of the... He's one of them. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:55:42 It's not like this anonymous group. Well, Trump being part of that cabal of businessmen, but yes. Yeah. I mean, there's only one reason why he wouldn't want this shit out is because he's implicated. Well, do you think even if it was out, would it even matter? What do you mean? I don't think if we got all the files of Trump doing all the fetus stuff, I don't think it would make it different. Does he make music?
Starting point is 00:56:07 That's the only time that we can look another way is if he makes music. doesn't make you. But he's already been convicted of something and he still hasn't. I think people look away when you're a powerful person and they feel like there's nothing they can do anywhere. No matter how many times you tweet, you know what I'm saying? You can protest. You can nobody get like you can't, you can't do anything. Like right now one point. One congressman out there in Kentucky asking for a disclosure for the Epstein Files, 30 million dollars they spend against him and he's immediately kicked out. that's got to be, I mean, like, how do you not, how do you not get this heartening that? Like, what the fuck is going on?
Starting point is 00:56:45 That's been going on. That's nothing new. That's what they do. They did that to fucking Cory Bush. They did that to Jamal Bowman. That's what they do. You know what I'm saying? The craziest thing in the world to me right now
Starting point is 00:56:57 is the fact that $1.7 billion of taxpayer money is going to an anti-weaponization compensation fund for people who feel they were wrong by the Biden administration. So if you were a January 6th insurrectionist or if you were targeted by Russia collusion, Donald Trump, and we're saying you don't have nothing to do with it. Is it too late for me to say I was there? I mean, how can they prove you weren't there?
Starting point is 00:57:27 I don't know. 1.6 billion is a lot. That's better than COVID relief. But you know what that is. You know what that's. Listen to this shit, man. That's right into his pocket. Listen to this defense of this shit. Justice Department has this new fund that was announced today, $1.7 billion.
Starting point is 00:57:43 Why should taxpayers pay for the January? Well, it's been very well received, I have to tell you. I know very little about it. I wasn't involved in the whole creation of it and the negotiation. But this is reimbursing people that were horribly treated, horribly treated. It's anti-weaponization. They've been weaponized. They've been, in some cases, imprisoned wrongly.
Starting point is 00:58:07 paid legal fees that they didn't have. They've gone bankrupt. Their lives have been destroyed. And they turned out to be right. I mean, it was a terrible period of time in the history of our country. And they worked on it. I know the Justice Department, it's really been working on it very hard. There's been numerous other occasions over the years where things like this have been done. But these were people that were weaponized and really treated brutally by a system that was so corrupt with corrupt people running it. and they're getting reimbursed for their legal fees and the other things that they had to suffer. You know, you know, you know, so...
Starting point is 00:58:42 Can I add a little cherry to that? Please. The Justice Department on Tuesday expanded the just announced settlement of President Donald Trump's lawsuit over the leaking of his tax returns. They include a pledge that the IRS will no longer pursue any claims
Starting point is 00:58:55 it may have against Trump, his family members, and his companies over unpaid taxes. So, first of all, going back to this one, one of the unfortunate things about this one is because in inception this is not a bad idea when you think about past abuses that the government has rendered on the American public like you look at like a Quintel pro situation right you look at like the fucking Tuskegee was a syphilist experiment whatever like that slavery obviously slavery right like farmers
Starting point is 00:59:27 farmers far anywhere war on drugs no no but exactly so like there are people where where the government had been weaponized against them. They incurred huge costs, loss of their jobs, their livelihood, all these things. And they should deserve some sort of restitution for that, right? So, like, in inception, this is a good idea. But then we know exactly what this really is. It's just a slush fund for him and his buddies
Starting point is 00:59:50 who feel attacked by the administration that was there before. I think it's a slush fund, but I also think that, you know, January 6th rioters, some of them went to prison he pardoned him like he said he would right these people are extremely loyal to him on top of the pardon
Starting point is 01:00:10 now I put a little bit of money in your pocket a whole lot of money in your pocket might have to run that back so what happens when I need to call might have to run that back I'm going to give them the money though I don't know about that oh that's a hilarious take at a 1.7
Starting point is 01:00:24 you dumb motherfuckers think he's going to pay you you don't know motherfuckers think he's gonna pay you he'll find some a couple people make a big deal a bit. That's going to him and his boys. Anybody who can't see through this shit is an idiot. I'm sorry. I'm not saying that y'all are wrong.
Starting point is 01:00:39 Fucking idiots. I'm not saying that y'all wrong, but I can also see him paying those people for when he needs them again for the midterms. He might keep a little off to the side, right? Look, he's getting $100 million because part of the settlement is they audited him. They saw that he claimed the same losses
Starting point is 01:00:58 on two tax returns in a row. They hit him with a $100 million penalty. That's gone. On top of that, you can neither now or in the future audit anybody in his family or connected to any of his companies. No, you can't.
Starting point is 01:01:14 You cannot. Yeah, that's what he's saying. Yeah. So basically, these guys ain't paying fucking taxes. But ideally, the next administration could just say, nah, this is bullshit. What next administration? Yeah, okay, ideally.
Starting point is 01:01:27 Can I say ideally? Can I use the word ideally? Seriously, I need everybody to open their eyes. Okay, let's stop acting for a minute. Chris? Okay. Yeah. I need everybody to open their eyes.
Starting point is 01:01:41 Is anything that he's doing right now letting you know, yeah, I'm just going to walk away. I'm just going to walk away in the midterms. Yeah, we're just going to give all of this up in 2008. Come on, guys. Y'all about to see some shit in America. Y'all ain't never seen before. And to whatever point we was making earlier about ain't nobody going to do shit, ain't nobody going to do shit. I mean, after seeing these retards in Kentucky vote in this latest, I think it was a primary.
Starting point is 01:02:09 It was a primary. Congratulations, guys. Like, for a long time, I've hated it when people just like, especially at coastal elites, just like shit on, you know, southern states. And they say that they're like dumb and all this other stuff. I hate it. I think it's so stupid. You never even been to these places. is how dare you, like, throw these, you know, horrible things on these people.
Starting point is 01:02:29 And then an election like this comes up and they fucking fall for it. And it's just like, congrats, man. You guys lived up to every single stereotype. Did they fall for it? I'm almost wondering about the legitimacy of this election. It's so. Brother, brother, I think it actually. It's so fucking nuts.
Starting point is 01:02:46 I think it actually might be that easy. Remember, you're talking about people that are voting in like a primary election. So this isn't even the actual election. Right. It's not the full turnout. Exactly. How many mail-in votes? were involved in this.
Starting point is 01:02:57 But why do you all expect these red states to ever change? It's not about, it's not about, but this is a, not even purple. They don't even go, like these are these states have been a starically raised.
Starting point is 01:03:05 I'm not saying that this Republican backed by Trump somehow cheated a Democratic candidate. I'm talking, I think this, I think Massey was like seven-time elected Republican from the state. Like, they spent 30 million dollars.
Starting point is 01:03:17 They spent $32 million. Massey spent a lot too. Massey spent like 16 or something like that. But did you see the winners, uh, the party he had afterwards? The party he had afterwards? there were like 10 people there.
Starting point is 01:03:26 It doesn't even feel like a real campaign. That's what I'm saying. It's like, yeah. I think you're just dealing with like incredibly low IQ voters who are, you know, loyal to something. Are the cold and MAGA is just that strong? Say, well,
Starting point is 01:03:38 are the cold of MAGA is just that's wrong. When you spend $30 million and motherfuckers are watching AI ads that's saying that Massey's having an affair with AOC and it's like all this is made up and old people are just seeing it. And they're being like, well, I can't support this guy. But it's just like, guys, you got to open up your fucking eyes. This is what every late night show thinks you are, and you just prove them right.
Starting point is 01:04:00 Incredible. It's insane. I've never seen any shit like that. It's embarrassing. No, it is. Like, if you're from there, are you not embarrassed? I'll tell you one.
Starting point is 01:04:08 You're just the fucking interest groups from outside the state. We're not even talking about like interest groups within the state. It'd be one thing if there are interest groups within the state, right? Well, let's say who the interest group was. Oh, absolutely. APEC.
Starting point is 01:04:20 It was APEC. Also Trump and his cronies. Yeah, it was a coalition between. Mag and A-Pack. It's fucking crazy. Higgs, whatever the fuck is named. Higgs had. HECSeth campaigned in Kentucky for the opponent.
Starting point is 01:04:34 Think about how crazy that is. Yeah, why, yeah. I mean, Trump and Dawson. But no, this guy is the Secretary of Defense. Yeah, don't you have something to focus on? We're allegedly in a war right now. And this guy is campaigning in Kentucky? Did you see Trump say that we don't have time for Medicaid?
Starting point is 01:04:49 We don't have time. He said, we can't pay Medicaid. And it was something else. Medicaid and something like, because we're in a war. So they don't have, I think it was Medicaid and education or something. It's like, we don't have time to pay for that. We're in a war. We can't pay for both.
Starting point is 01:05:02 I didn't say that one. But then $1.78 billion. All of a sudden. To go to a bunch of insurrectionists. All of a sudden, there's money. Honestly, this is the thing that should have everybody out in the streets. I don't care what your race is. I don't care what your party is.
Starting point is 01:05:17 You should be outraged that $1.7 billion of your money is going to pay for a bunch of insurrectionists who stormed the capital on January 6th. Some of them, 33 of them, have been re-arrested, re-arrested and charged with other crimes and sent back to prison. Are they eligible for this shit as well? Come on, man. And on top of that, another billion dollars of our money going to a ballroom? So what are the Democrats going to do about it? This is the question, right? Because, like, obviously there's, you sit and yap, but the Democrats seem that they can't even figure out who they are. They're spending all this time trying to trash with Tom Piker. They're trying to all this time.
Starting point is 01:05:55 trash like the Bernie crats, the progressive movement. And at a certain point of time, you're going to need to come together if you want to win anything ever again. I don't know. This is the dilemma, right? Because you can say you look at Mondani, right, who won by saying, don't focus on Trump. Focus on what we should do. But you want in New York. That's an anomaly. True. But how do you not focus on this stuff? How do you not focus on it? How do you not talk? I mean, this is the most open corruption in the history of America. I agree. Without question. How do you not talk about this, but then to Andrew's point,
Starting point is 01:06:27 why are they so broken to so many frack? I mean, you know why? Did you see what Gavin Newsom said the other day? Gavin Newsom said, this is not something Democrats can be silent about. The fact he got to say that. The fact that you got to tweet,
Starting point is 01:06:44 let me read, we don't want to read y'all the exact tweet. Well, Democrats are talking about it. I think the Democrats, at least it seems like they're struggling to figure out their identity. And like the old school mainstream Democrats do not want to embrace the new school progressive Democrats,
Starting point is 01:06:57 but the new school progressive Democrats seem to have all the energy, they seem to have the excitement on the street, they seem to have the youth behind them. And it seems like the old school ones are like, hey, you guys are being a little too extreme for us, and we can't exactly go along with your ideas because all of our donors are the same billionaires
Starting point is 01:07:13 that donate to the Republicans, so we don't want to piss them off, and we don't want to ruffle apex feathers, and we don't want to do this on foreign policy. So it's like you have this constant struggle, which I think frustrated a lot of Americans, probably myself included, some of Bernie for multiple elections, I was like, why do they keep putting their finger on the scale against this guy
Starting point is 01:07:33 when the American people want them? What the fuck is going on? And the same thing has happened again. And in 2016, an extreme needed another extreme. And Bernie was the other extreme. Everybody acts like 2020. It didn't happen as well. It's like when all of them dropped out,
Starting point is 01:07:48 except Elizabeth Warren, so she could split the progressive vote with him. She stayed right up into the end. I think Bernie won Iowa or something like that. And then immediately everybody else dropped out except Elizabeth Warren. So like this is this and you could call it democratic strategy, whatever you fucking want. I don't care. But like there was clearly an agenda from the mainstream Democrats and they were going to maintain it.
Starting point is 01:08:11 And it's been what frustrated them, frustrated them with Biden and frustrated them with Kamala being foisted on us. And like it's going to continue to happen unless they embrace what the people want. And it doesn't seem like they're willing to embrace that. I agree. Gavin Newsom said Democrats need to be talking more about the gutting of the voting rights act. Maga is silencing voters and carving up black districts all across the south to hold onto power. This is Jim Crow 2.0. Silence is not an option. The fact that he even got to say that. Fuck that. But this gets back to the point I've been making, which is I don't think they're being silent. I think what they're saying isn't resonating. And maybe part of the reason. Because they're not willing to. They're not willing to embrace the address. Let's just call what it is.
Starting point is 01:08:50 They're not willing. Okay, even with the progressives, they had to tell Bernie to say something. Everybody was saying, Bernie, when you go say something about them gutting the voting rights act? You're the leader of the progressives. Why haven't you said anything? They had to, they had the pressure.
Starting point is 01:09:02 I don't know. I'm on Bernie's mailing list. I got an email from him almost every day. He's saying stuff straight to the point. I think it's the messaging. Even watching Massey last night, who I'm sure, I don't know his entire voter record. I'm sure there's a lot of stuff he's voted on
Starting point is 01:09:16 that I don't personally agree with. I reacted to his energy. because he felt like he was really even his line where he's like hey I tried to concede to my opponent but I couldn't find him in Tel Aviv right?
Starting point is 01:09:29 Like he's getting to it He's been to the heart of it I think Matthew's gonna have a great future I think he's gonna be fine and he's all by him right up a president he might actually be able to galvanize support around this this could be actually he looked like a guy who knew that better things are coming
Starting point is 01:09:45 he didn't look too stuff as he understands that like maybe not in this small fucking po don't congressional district is he going to win but he is tapping into the main because somebody like me is watching him and being like I don't know he seems to be speaking
Starting point is 01:10:00 in a way that's resonating and I guess But the only problem like they talk about him and Roe Conner right like even running together the ticket they just don't have the personality you still got to have some shabang you got to have some shabang you got to have shabang if you're going against you I think Massey has a little
Starting point is 01:10:14 little something look it depends who you're going against are you going against J.D. or Rubio, you've just got to have more shabang than them. Not hard. If you're going up against... That's not true. It's not true, guys.
Starting point is 01:10:27 Who has... Which of those two guys have that? Here's the thing that you all fail to realize about those guys. The marketing team around them. And that's exactly what it is. The social media aspect of it all. Like, the things that them guys do on social media run circles around the stuff that, you know, Democrats do.
Starting point is 01:10:45 Now, if you get them in a debate, it's probably a whole different story. But you don't have to be... that much, you don't have to do much when you have the machine that they got behind them. JD goes on, you know what JD does all the time that's so, that he goes on them Sunday morning shows all the time. And he takes them shots. He takes, that's all you got to do is be able to take the shots, you know, like social media to rest. None of you. You know, shots and lie without ever breaking. That too. But that's, you know, it's interesting is like, obviously the money in politics is like a stain on the American, history of the
Starting point is 01:11:19 staying in American experience. It's like a removal of our ability to have like an actual say and what happens in our government. It's horrible. What makes it one level even more horrible is when you're not even using that money to put out ads to defend the things that you care about. So for example, like if you're like the gun lobby, right, and you're going to dump millions of dollars in, let's just say, the ad should have to be about what you represent. Right. You want guns so they can be all pro guns. If you're spending $10 million in the ads
Starting point is 01:11:53 are about this guy cheats on his wife, that shouldn't be able to be spent in that way, right? Because now what you're doing is you're just target, and that's what happened with this Massey situation. Massey wasn't on board with certain foreign policy stuff, obviously supportive Israel, and APEC is going to spend $9 million to get him out of there. But if you're going to spend $9 million to get them out of that,
Starting point is 01:12:13 all those ads have to be about that exact thing, and then those people that are responding to those ads will at least be able to make a decision based on what you really want and care about. So listen, Schultz is right. You know what I'm saying? But if you're the opposition, if you're Democrats, do you do what you're supposed to do
Starting point is 01:12:32 and focus on the actual issues or do you got to focus on the shit that's going to get motherfuckers being like, nah, this motherfucker's a piece of shit? Well, it's the Michelle Obama thing, right? We go high. Guess what? It doesn't fucking work. Nope.
Starting point is 01:12:43 No, no, no. But, Momdani wasn't like, we go high. Mom Dani was like, I'm going to focus on the issues that people care about. I know, and I'm not talking about nothing else besides that. And I think the person that will win in the same way that Bernie would have won if they didn't put their thumb on the scale is because he was talking about the issues that people do care about. So once they can organize and go, hey, guys, do we agree on these are the issues?
Starting point is 01:13:05 Let's focus on them. Then it will happen. But right now, it seems like everybody's kind of grasping its straws about what the identity of the party is. You know what's so interesting note to show it to the point? You could still do that. Like, you could still go low by just telling the truth, Chris. That's true, too.
Starting point is 01:13:21 All you have to do is talk about these people support this and point to all of this shit from Epstein Files to the... You don't have to make anything out. You don't got to make nothing up. They handed you. They handed you your campaign on a silver platter. It's time for you to eat it. This is not hard.
Starting point is 01:13:39 But I'm on social media. I feel like the Iranian Lego. spots are better than anything the Democrats do both. Do both. Do both. Oh my God. The Iranian Lego. They made these like Lego meem things that were crazy. They went crazy. Nice. Oh, yeah. But I feel like even
Starting point is 01:13:55 with the bad record, they still were able to beat Massey. And that's what scary. So that's the thing. I'm discouraged. I don't even know what to do. But I mean, I wouldn't be discouraged because, I mean, the Democrats have been getting a lot of wins in a lot of places up until like last night. So it's like... But look at the Jerryman. Like, that's going to change the whole landscape of things.
Starting point is 01:14:13 You see all, these no king, these no king protests, everybody's speaking out and nothing's happening. I'm with you. Like, when I see stuff like this, like, I'm always wondering what's going to make people outrage, what's going to make people react, right? Like, you know, January 6 made people react because they thought an election
Starting point is 01:14:30 was being stolen. Um, watching George Floyd get killed, made people react. How? Lying about Biden being alive, made people react. Not really. Not, I'm not, I'm not, man. Let's just be honest with each other right now. People covering up Biden's mental health was massive. Massive. I don't know. I don't think so. It didn't make people react. I think you're
Starting point is 01:14:54 talking about like people going out into the street. Going into the street. Oh, oh. Yeah. I think it, I think it did impact people and I think that they felt gaslit and lied to it. Oh, okay. To that point, I think that the people who decided to stay home and not participate at all, I think that was that. I think when you look at this, two candidates and, I mean, there was polls that showed that Biden Trump was the rematch nobody wanted. Yes. So by the time Biden finally decided to step out after playing with everybody's, you know, emotions for two years and playing with everybody's reality, everybody was like, oh, man, I'm not, I'm not interested. You know what I'm, I don't fucking know. My point is this.
Starting point is 01:15:32 The other coup that happened in D.C.? I don't think that was a cool. That should have happened. That should have happened. You're right. It should have. I said that two years prior and everybody made me my ass. Much earlier so you could honor the Democratic process. Yes, I agree. That would have been nice, right? We live in a democracy?
Starting point is 01:15:49 I said that Christmas of 2023. You said earlier you got ripped apart. Ripped apart. Ripped, I mean, treating my asshole like a fucking... Never mind. But all I'm saying is this right here should motherfucking have people in these streets. Yes.
Starting point is 01:16:05 With the way the economy is right now and how financially fuck people are, 1.7 billion of your tax dollars is going to an anti-weaponization compensation fund for people who feel like they were wrong by the Biden administration. I feel like I was wrong by the Biden administration. Okay. Am I entitled? What does compensation look like?
Starting point is 01:16:25 Of course, all of this is is weaponization, though. I mean, that's the Trump strategy, right? Do something and then project it onto somebody else. Rejecting onto something else. Right. So what should we do? I personally feel like he paid his goons off. Y'all say y'all don't think they're getting none of this money.
Starting point is 01:16:38 I think he paid his goons off because every plan is on deck for the midterms, Chris. He's got a little set aside for that, sure. But you think he's going to give $1.7 billion to regular people. Get the fuck out of here. To me, this one isn't even that crazy compared to that you can never look into me or any of my family members or our friends tax.
Starting point is 01:16:57 They're both nuts. But to me, the idea that the government is handing out money to the idea that people in government are finding a way to like extract wealth from government is not a foreign idea to the American people. Unfortunately, it's very unfortunate, but it's not foreign. What is foreign is that there are certain people
Starting point is 01:17:17 that are going to be immune to the law. We would like to believe that that's foreign. And then passing some form of the legislation where you're not even allowed to look into it, to me, is almost like an admission of guilt. A president would never want to support that. If you said to your girl, hey, I want you to sign this paperwork right here that says you can never look into
Starting point is 01:17:33 my phone and pass a text message when I was in Las Vegas. What do you think she's going to Right? She's going to be like, well, what the fuck happened in Vegas? Right? And it's the same man who told y'all last week. He don't care about America's financial situation. He literally said that shit. I don't think about American financial situation.
Starting point is 01:17:53 I don't think about anybody. I think about one thing. You could not let Iran have a nuclear weapon. That's all. That's right. That's a perfect statement. I'd make it again. After telling y'all that he was going to fix the economy on day one and that he was going
Starting point is 01:18:06 going to win, that he won the war. election with one word groceries. He never told you that he didn't care if y'all could court some. So what's the message? What's the messaging for Democrats, you think, that will be successful? I'm going to be honest with you. I don't know. Well, how about we do this?
Starting point is 01:18:20 I don't know. To me, there seem to be two issues that are driving, creating the wedge that you're talking about in the Democratic Party, right? It's identity politics and Israel. What about identity politics? Well, the sense that the more towards the center you get, there seems to be a concession among Chris, that center should is dead.
Starting point is 01:18:40 No, no, I think there is a center. No, it's not. You don't think so? Get it out. What I was saying is I think there's an idea that identity politics is a losing policy for Democrats, right? The more they talk about pronouns,
Starting point is 01:18:55 trans, whatever it is. They all took their pronouns out their bio. They knew that shirt. Okay, so maybe that's not on the table. Then the other one is Israel, right? Because you have the far left who's very anti-Israel right now. And then to Andrew's point, you have a lot of politicians at the top of the party who are still very closely aligned with Israel.
Starting point is 01:19:13 Because they're not trying to get mass? Y'all are complicating this shit, man. Back to Andrew's point earlier, even though it's just New York, if you can convince people that you're putting more money in their pocket and you can keep them safe, you will galvanize folk. That's why I say there's no such thing as a center. We need, sadly, being on the extreme is simply saying, yes, man, motherfucker shit has affordable health care. Yes, people should have affordable housing. Yes, we need to increase the motherfucking minimum wage. So here's my question.
Starting point is 01:19:42 Trump sold that dream by keeping you safe from immigrants, right? Yep. How do the Democrats sell it? Keeping you safe from billionaires. Yeah. And that's happening right now. That should be the message. So the Democrats have to become the party that's anti-billionaire.
Starting point is 01:19:57 Right. Uh-oh. You can't do that. Who funds the party? Listen, one of your biggest advocates that people were saying, Oh, shit, running for president. What was he doing this week? Who?
Starting point is 01:20:08 Cuban? Yes, what was he doing? I mean, I got 3,000 at the White House. What I would say with that is that if you're aligned with someone on getting cheaper prescription drugs to the American people, I can understand why you would feel compelled to do that without supporting literally everything else that was happening. Donnie did it. Also, yeah, we don't.
Starting point is 01:20:28 Like that is? By the way, I don't care. I understand politics. You know what I'm saying? So I don't get mad when people. go and do these things. I'm just simply saying a billionaire
Starting point is 01:20:38 is going to always be a billionaire. That's all I'm saying. I'm not even talking about I'm talking about the Musks, the Bezos's. The guys on this level who are driving the AI. Did you hear what Bezos said?
Starting point is 01:20:50 What do you say? Oh, about the New York City schools? Yeah, I guess like with the teachers that's like you could. Oh, so even if you tax us? Yeah. That's true. I mean, no, he was talking about like
Starting point is 01:21:00 the cost of, like he's like if Amazon was run like the New York City school system, was. You still couldn't pay all the teachers or some shit like that? No, he said like your package would take six weeks to get there and it wouldn't even be the package that you ordered. Oh, shit. Like, that's what I thought?
Starting point is 01:21:15 Let me see. I saw the quote. It's right here. Let me see. Yeah, he said doubling his taxes would not help a teacher in Queens. Yeah. That's what it was. We'll talk about, you know, making the tax system more progressive. How about we start by having the nurse
Starting point is 01:21:31 in Queens not pay taxes? Why has somebody, all why is some why is a nurse in Queens who makes $75,000 a year paying more than a thousand dollars a month in taxes work that's a thousand dollars a month that could help with rent or groceries or anything and so and and by the way do you know what that all adds up to the the the bottom half of income earners in this country pay only three percent of the taxes it's only three percent we can find three percent so we don't have
Starting point is 01:22:05 It's a small amount of money for the government, you know, that. And really, the more I thought about it, to me, it's kind of absurd that we're doing this. You know, we shouldn't be asking this nurse in Queens to send money to Washington. They should be sending her to. So pay your fucking share taxes. Thank you. Exactly. You can do both.
Starting point is 01:22:25 Exactly. Yeah, pay your fucking fair share taxes. Pay your workers, you know, a livable wage. And so the nursing queens don't have to pay no fucking taxes. You can clearly tell he got something. And don't let us middle class people have to pay no taxes either, show. Don't you dare, so. Yeah, don't, don't let that.
Starting point is 01:22:40 No, don't go. Yo, yo, yo. I'm tired of thinking we're not middle class, we're middle class, yo. That's the wealthy right there. Why do us middle class people have to pay taxes? Are you serious right now? Yes.
Starting point is 01:22:53 Hey, so thank God someone made a billion after we made a million, huh? Thank God because they didn't, they behaved. Who said we made a million? You made $200. You made $200. All I'm simply saying is, all I'm simply saying is, can us middle class people get a break? I agree.
Starting point is 01:23:10 Middle class people. One time for the middle class. Because we want one break. Can we get a break? You know what it's funny, God damn. I think what he's advocating for, he's like, instead of complaining that I'm not paying taxes, no one should pay taxes. That's what it sounds like I'm saying. Man.
Starting point is 01:23:26 This is my issue always when they, when people talk about, or like politicians talk about tax and billionaires. if you want to talk about taxed billionaires, you've got to present a tax strategy that actually taxes billionaires. What they do is use billionaire as this term, this scapegoat, this, ooh, these are the boogeyman, right? Nobody makes a billion dollars a year at income.
Starting point is 01:23:50 These guys aren't making any money in income. What they're doing is a lot of them are taking loans out on their assets. Yep. And loans are tax-free. Yep. So not only they're not paying taxes, they get free money to fucking spend, right? And then these politicians who know this, by the way, that's why I find it disingenuous.
Starting point is 01:24:09 What they do is they go, we're going to tax a billionaires. They end up taxing doctors. They end up taxing lawyers. They end up taxing business owners. Comedians, radio personalities. And look, the middle class. The middle class. The middle class got a lot of money.
Starting point is 01:24:26 We'll pay it. I don't mind paying it. I've always said that I will pay over. I mean, that's why I like Bernie. I will pay it if I know where my money is going. I don't want to pay for no fucking anti-weaponization competition. I don't want to pay for no unjust wars. I don't want to pay for that.
Starting point is 01:24:39 And I don't want to pay for that. But even if I am down to pay more, if it alleviates any pressure and gives other people in our community. I'm with that. Across the country. I'm with that. Not only am I more than happy to do it, I have done it. I have done that.
Starting point is 01:24:54 I continue to do it. Right. So it's like, but the issue that I have with it is stop saying, we're going to tax the billionaires when you know damn right your tax structure and the things that you're putting in place don't even affect them if you actually want to find a way to do it tax them when they take out loans on their assets tax the loan they take out of their assets and all of a sudden you're going to find out that they're going to be making income out of nowhere you're going to see all this income to start popping in because they're going to need to find a way to have money
Starting point is 01:25:21 to spend that's right and the only thing better than income is pre-combe thank you that's the money you get before like the actual big check coming yeah you know what I'm saying yeah y'all wouldn't like a little pre-com I mean it's a little bit he wasn't pre-cum don't you have Al most income is this a little bit you know what I'm saying hey Al where do you want that income let's pay some bills man let's pay some bills brilliant fucking idiots man speaking of crazy world we live in speaking of income Taylor bring up the Chivaldi's clip will you he gonna try to keep getting that one off
Starting point is 01:26:01 I know like I mean he literally is gonna keep trying to shove that one down our throats he he he he he uh church announcements

It's World Mental Health Day, but you know, this is Mental Health Awareness Month right now. So we just wanted to announce it early.
Starting point is 01:27:53 Why not? The Mental Wealth Expo, this year is going to be different, though, because it is a day of mental health solutions and tools for change. I feel like when we have this conversation about mental health, like we're past the conversations about eradicating the stigma.
Starting point is 01:28:07 You know what I mean? We're past the conversations about, you know, just raising awareness. I just feel like everybody needs to focus on solutions and actual resources right now. So salute to my good sister,

Starting point is 01:28:30 October 10th at the Joe and Diane Bloom Wellness and Event Center in Newark, New Jersey. That is where it's going to be. And you can go to Mental Wealthexpo.com to RSVP. Okay, Mentalwealthexpo.com to RSVP. Now let's get back to the show. Hethy Kyle Walker. Yes, sir. You know what I want to salute, man.
Starting point is 01:28:52 I want to salute this young man named Curry Barker. Have you heard of Curry Barker? Yes, obsession. Obsession, man. Did the movie? Did you see the movie? No, I'm going tonight. My daughter loves horror movies.
Starting point is 01:29:06 I hate horror movies. I hate horror movies. I don't like paying people to scare me. But the reason I have to go is because I just want to see what this, what they're calling him a former YouTuber now, named Curry Barker. But he used to be on YouTube, I guess, doing like these short. Didn't you have a comedy backgrounds? I don't know. I think.
Starting point is 01:29:27 Did he? I don't know. I just know. I just know he used to be posting on YouTube, I guess posting horror stuff on YouTube that he used to write. And man, he did this film called Obsession, had a production budget of between $750,000
Starting point is 01:29:43 to $1 million. He ran through the festival circuit, sold the focus films for $16 million. And then this weekend at the box office, it made $23 million. It is the cheapest film to top the box office. office since 2009. If I'm not mistake, I think I've seen some, let me just make sure this.
Starting point is 01:30:05 One million dollar budget, yo. This is the game changing. This is the game changing. I've seen this guy's sketches, dude. That's what I'm saying. Alarious. YouTube was. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:18 hilarious. This is, okay, so there's a couple things I think are going to change, like TV and film. There's this movie that Markiplier put out. Markiplier put out. Iron lung. Iron lung. Iron Lung, made $50 million on a $3 to $4 million budget.
Starting point is 01:30:30 Three or $4 million budget. He was a YouTuber. He was a YouTuber. He built up an amazing community audience, and then they went out and supported it. And I think an important component to this. It's another one. Talk to me by Danny and Michael Falupu. The Philippo brothers.
Starting point is 01:30:46 These are, yeah, the Australian guys. They took in $92 million on a $4.5 million budget. Yeah. So a couple things going on. They've been trying to find a way for, like, making social media stars into, you know, you know, TV and film starts. That's right. And what they thought was they go like,
Starting point is 01:31:02 oh, we'll just put them in a TV or a movie or TV show and then people just go watch it. And I think what they're starting to learn is, and sometimes maybe that has worked, maybe other times it's not so well. But I think that they're starting to learn is that the communities that they build want to see the things they create.
Starting point is 01:31:22 Talk that talk. They don't necessarily just want to see them in something. They appreciate, their creative ideas, they appreciate the content that they curate. I like your energy. I'm in your world already. So if you take me to a movie and I know it's you, not just you in it, then I'm going to go support it. And I think that that's what's happening now is they're taking like very small chances, right?
Starting point is 01:31:48 They're going, hey, here's a million bucks to make a movie. For a movie studio, that's a nothing chance compared to a $100 million dollar budget or $150. And they go, hey, can you make a movie for a million bucks? Let's see what happens. And they're seeing certain examples. I mean, I think Markiplier put up his own money. But with this one, I think a, I forget which studio gave him the... Well, Focus Films bought it.
Starting point is 01:32:11 Well, but there was a studio that gave him money to make it. I don't know. Was it Broken Paul? No, not Broken Paul. Was it Blue Mouse? No, I thought it was like a... It wasn't Blue Mouse? Bigger one.
Starting point is 01:32:21 I don't know. Oh. Well, Blue Mouse big. Anyway, my point is that like, if you find a way to make a movie, movie for a million bucks, these studios can make a lot of money on that. What is hard to make money on is you make a move for $300 million, because that needs to be a billion dollar property. So what I think will start to happen is they'll be making a lot, they'll be taking a lot more shots on these creators that can go out and they can put stuff out. And you know what's even better?
Starting point is 01:32:46 Talk to me. You already got your own capital. Or you got private investors that you can raise the money yourself? If I was a private equity firm and I wanted to get a to entertainment, I would absolutely fund a development studio and give these people who actually have the ability to make shit. They probably have hours and hours and hours of them creating content and viewers consuming it. That's right. There is proof of concept to a certain extent. That's right. And now you're seeing people go to the theater to see their work. That's an easy bet for me. I don't even watch horror movies. I don't like paying people to scare me. I'm going tonight just because I want to see what he did with this million dollars. I just want to see it.
Starting point is 01:33:25 I want to see what it looks like. I'm literally just going for the production, but I probably have my eye closed through half of it. So let's say you're Drusky, right? So instead of taking the more traditional route would be like something, let's use Tyler the creator in Marty Supreme, right? Like here's a supporting role
Starting point is 01:33:42 and what's essentially a mainstream studio movie. You're saying someone like Drusky should just really come up with 1.5 himself. He can do both, Chris. Let me tell you what I would do if I was, was Drusky? If I wanted to do film. I don't think Drusky needs to do film.
Starting point is 01:34:01 He wants to do film. He said he wants to, I've heard him throw out a couple of films I did. I know he said he wanted to do a buddy comedy with Timothy Shalame. Yeah. I mean, look, look, again,
Starting point is 01:34:10 he might want to do acting actual scripted stuff. What I would do if I was Drusky's manager, I would say, Drusky, you are Borat. You are Sasha Baron Kohn. We have these characters that are all, already developed that people love.
Starting point is 01:34:30 You got the white Christian women, right Republican woman. You got these other ones that we already think the pastor or whatever. We could take one of them and make a movie about it, but not like a scripted, literally how Borat was. So you basically have a loose storyline, but it's really about creating these pranks throughout.
Starting point is 01:34:48 All you can do all of them. Honestly, that's a great fucking idea. It is. All you can do all of them. You could have the fucking redneck that he played at Love's Alabama, be in love with the fucking conservative You could mix them or you could just do or you could do like Drusky Pranks Japan
Starting point is 01:35:04 Do you remember when like Tom Greene went to Japan And you have all these different characters But then he's operating with these people abroad or whatever But the characters themselves already work You up the budget a little bit more His budget's already high And now you have a real movie property That's based on IP that the internet absolutely loves
Starting point is 01:35:22 They know Drusky That's why what you said Chris Drusky can do both because I would still if I was Drusky I would still make guest appearances in movies and shit like that as well
Starting point is 01:35:30 you're building up your brand so finally do do this film man now not only do you got your own audience you got all these other people who fuck with you telling me you wouldn't watch
Starting point is 01:35:41 Drusky as the white Republican woman goes to the Republican National Convention and that's the whole it's an hour and 30 minute hour 15 minute movie It's, you know, whatever and people, blah, blah, you have some storyline that exists with it.
Starting point is 01:35:58 You even throw some other guys into it. You got Kai running in there. You got Kevin Hart running in. Like, you have other things. But that would be incredibly disruptive, I think. It's almost, it's not the same. But like in the 70s and 80s, you had these franchises like smoking the bandit and stuff like that, which were like essentially just platforms for these various celebrities to come on. And, you know, the plot was like very secondary.
Starting point is 01:36:26 It was really just a chance for them to do their thing. The other question I had was, you know, when listening to that Drake clip, the Kevin Durant commercial, I can't see it from where I'm sitting. But just listening to it, I'm like, this guy has fantastic comedic timing. He has fantastic. Drake was an actor first. How would a Drake movie do? I thought Drake should have made that transition.
Starting point is 01:36:52 Yeah, I'm actually shocked that he hasn't, to be honest. I thought he should have made that transition. I think he wanted to show people that he was a rapper. He was great on Little Dickie. Fantastic. The one problem with the Drake movie is that Drake is bigger than any movie he's going to be in or put out. So if you just have him as a character in the movie, he's so famous that he has to be Drake. So if you're doing a Drake movie, what I would do is a sketch or whatever kind of in that regard where he gets to play himself.
Starting point is 01:37:23 Make it a comedy first? Well, remember Howard Stern, private parts? Not a great movie and I'm a big Stern fan. I thought that was fucking. Maybe it was young. Okay. I thought it was awesome. But like, I think Drake has to play himself in the movie, but you create a curfier
Starting point is 01:37:38 enthusiasm-esque framework for it where he can be this kind of like vulnerable, silly dude. But just having Drake play like a star of a rom-com is going to be hard for us to separate. I think Drake can do it. I think you do it. He convinced us that he was a cripple in a wheelchair. When he did S&L and all that shit, he was good. He can. What I'm trying to say is, like, there is a, like, do people want to see Drake be just a guy in a rom-com?
Starting point is 01:38:05 No, they want to see Drake be Drake. He would have to be like. They want to see Drusky be these characters. Which would be funny if he played, like, a satire of himself. That's what that was. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, like, you curb, you curb it a little bit. He's vulnerable in it.
Starting point is 01:38:19 You actually, I mean, there's like. Really crying. You know what I mean? Like all of the shit you think Drake does. You know what I mean? Like that could be, yeah, it could be funny. You know, whatever the storyline is, but he gets to be him in it. Because I think the disconnect is, and you brought up a great point with Tyler, the creator.
Starting point is 01:38:39 It's like, I'm sure some of Tyler's fans went to go see that movie because they love Tyler. He's this massive fan base and this loyal fan base. But at the end of the day, they want to see Tyler be Tyler. He didn't play Tyler in the movie? No, he played a character. I mean, he was set in the 30. Like the 30. Oh, got you got it.
Starting point is 01:38:54 So it's just like you're doing it because you just want to see your boy out there doing his thing. Right. Right. But it's like what you really want is you want to see Tyler be Tyler or Tyler be some of the characters that he's created. So that's the first iteration that I would do for a lot of this talent.
Starting point is 01:39:10 And then once they already see you in a movie, now start slotting you in other stories. But you know, it is interesting. It really depends on the story, right? Because if you think about back in the day when you used to see rappers in projects, These stories were just so good that these guys, these guys embodied the characters.
Starting point is 01:39:27 Like, Cube could be Doboy or Craig from Friday right now. Yeah, but I'll be honest with you, bro. Like rap wasn't as big. No, no, no, of course not. But I mean, it was, to the audience, though, to us, it was. So for Cube to be in a movie, it was still Ice Cube. But going to the movie, we forgot that was Cube. That was Dooboy.
Starting point is 01:39:45 And I think Drake has that type of acting ability to make you forget that that's Drake that you're watching on the screen. To me, I think one of the genius things about Friday was Ice Cube played somebody that could have been Ice Cube in his life. You know what I mean? Like, I'm watching it like, oh, is this Ice Cube before he became Ice Cube? Well, what about Doe Boy? Doe Boy is the same way and Boys in the Hood. That's what, oh.
Starting point is 01:40:08 Yeah, I'll say, I think you've got the movies mixed. No, no, no, no, no, no. What I'm saying is he's not killing people all at time. Taylor. But, no, but like, exactly. So in Dolbo, you're like, I could see him as this person, right? It's not like a big logical leap. If our first movie with,
Starting point is 01:40:22 if our first movie with Ice Cube was like him in like a, uh, some fucking Japanese like kung fu movie, maybe we'd be like, what's going on here? There'd also be a version where we're like this kind of fire maybe, I don't know, but like, what if Drake played a role like Tupac and Juice?
Starting point is 01:40:41 Might be something. I think that could be crazy. You know what I'm saying? Like he got the, he clearly got the actor. Drake is an action hero. What about that? But it's slightly tongue and cheek.
Starting point is 01:40:49 There's like a little wink. Action hero. I can see anything like that. Yeah, I don't know if I want to see acting. He can be like this. This is the problem with having a super, super big celebrity as like a side character in a movie is every time they enter, they are Drake. And it breaks the world. So like Ed Shearin, the goat, like unbelievable guy.
Starting point is 01:41:11 He was in an episode of Game of Thrones. And I think it was one of these things where it was like, hey, we got to get Ed in. He's a fan of the show. Like it would be sick to have. one of the most prolific musicians ever on the show. But it took you out of the... Not me personally, no, but there was a version where people were watching where, like,
Starting point is 01:41:28 when you watch Game Thrones, you were suspending disbelief, you're believing in dragons, you're doing all this shit. Fantasy. I was, like, finally. That was the greatest... The role that was made for him.
Starting point is 01:41:38 Like, yes. No, of course. Look, I'm being silly, obviously, but like, I think there is a version of that, you know, where, like, if Ed Shearin played a musician, in a movie where a musician was about to get signed to whatever.
Starting point is 01:41:54 And it doesn't exactly have to be his life, but all of a sudden you buy it now. I don't like those. I'm not mad at that, but I don't like those. I don't like those ones that are two on the nose, like, like eight mile. Well, but we bought eight mile and it was a fantastic movie. But I would rather see Eminem. I would rather see Eminem doing some shit that I wouldn't see Eminem do. What I would say is you would.
Starting point is 01:42:17 But that's only because of how his videos have been. Eight Mile was Howard Stern movie. Right. And it was Get Rich and Die Trying. And it was Get Rich and drive. They're biopics. We buy it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:42:28 And you just shift it a little, but we buy it. And then once we see you on the big screen. But you would much rather see 50 in a comedy, bro. I needed, I need. You know what I'm saying? 50 in a comedy, bro. 50s. You know what I'd be awesome.
Starting point is 01:42:44 I'm not saying rather, but that would be awesome. I just think you need to make that transition for people. What have you both seen in the movie Bad Trip with, L'Rell and I forgot the other guy's name. Oh, yeah. I want to see Drake something like that, like dressed up and then people don't recognize him. I think we're killing him. I know.
Starting point is 01:43:00 Superbad, get him to the Greek style movie. Like, that's my favorite tone of the movie. Get him to the Greek super bad. Like, I like that type of shit. I mean... He'd done that before when Jimmy Kimmel, he dressed up and was interviewing people about... Yes. That little Dickie shit was funny too, man.
Starting point is 01:43:14 By the way, slewled to Little Dickie. Little Dickie still got the... Little Dickie show was one of the best shows ever written. Yeah, I was watching it this movie. weekend. That shit is them three seasons. That is some of the best television ever, yo. Like, I don't even know what you call that. Is that a sitcom? What the fuck is a little dicky show called, Joe? Well, no, it's not a sitcom, but it's a comedy. That shit is hilarious. I have a question, though. Those type of shows, this more towards you, like for white people. Yeah. What is it about
Starting point is 01:43:42 dicks for y'all? What is it about dicks for you? What is it about dicks for you? I don't mean to come to your aid like this, but what is it about dicks for you? Well, You like Dix Taylor. I like one dick. Thank you very much. Okay. Second. No, but I'm just saying a lot of white humor is around
Starting point is 01:43:58 dicks and like gay stuff. So white people. I'm not white people. Nah, but we brought you in. We brought you in. What I would say is this. What I would say is this is like white people would just like maybe 10 years ahead when it comes to like gay jokes.
Starting point is 01:44:15 So we got comfortable with gays before anybody else did. And when you're comfortable with it, you could joke around about it and be silly because there's this like, there's this air of absurdity that goes along with it. So like now black people in the last like five years have gotten very comfortable with gay fun. Like young black people just, it's, it's a trail bleed. Say again. He's an early adopt. First of all, it's what we have to do. First of all, I've been on Dix, number one. Okay, number two, I'm upset that Taylor even asked you. I got jealous just now. I'm like, Why is she asking Andrew about things and not me?
Starting point is 01:44:51 She don't believe you, well. She don't believe you. She don't believe you, man. She don't believe it comes from your heart. She knows it comes from my heart. I'm like, why the fuck was she? I have another question, then. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:45:03 Is white culture the only culture that jokes about dicks or is black culture the only one that doesn't? Like, what's the... Who says we don't? We don't. Taylor just did. That's not true. What about South America? South American culture?
Starting point is 01:45:17 Yeah. Loves gay jokes. Okay. They love it. That's like, why they always got to be gay? Every joke is that. The 80s and the 90s, you can go watch Eddie Murphy Raw. There was gay jokes about this.
Starting point is 01:45:30 You can go watch Martin and them guys when Martin was dressing up like Sheney, there's always been gay humor and all of that stuff. In living color. No, you're right. But there's two different types of humor versus a super bad. Very different. It's very different. It's very different.
Starting point is 01:45:44 It's very different. You're laughing because there's a guy dressed up as a girl. we're laughing because it's funny that you put your balls on my shoulder. Right. You're not ready for that. You can't handle a guy at all. I don't see the reason.
Starting point is 01:45:57 There's no need for that. Exactly. You're not there here. But that's a little bit of, but why? You're not there's still pausing. You're still doing pause. Why? Put your balls on my shoulder.
Starting point is 01:46:07 Put your balls on my shoulder. Why is that? There's no reason that's funny. Like, why would you do that? It's not funny to have my balls on your shoulder? Well, what's the punchline? This is the punchline. You just go like this.
Starting point is 01:46:18 Jalphine. See, you're not there yet. That's why Taylor asked me. That's what Taylor asked me. You just hit a little luck, though. It's a journey. It's a journey. It's a journey. It's a journey.
Starting point is 01:46:30 You're just at the first level, man. Putting balls on the shoulder and turning the kiss. But even so, for instance, Unsuper Bay, he drew a lot of dicks for what? It's hilarious. This is how gay fun works with the boys is you just try to out gay one another. So if you put your balls there, I got to go try to kiss them. And if you break, you're gay. That's not gay.
Starting point is 01:46:50 It's not gay to what? That's not, that's something else. Putting balls on a shoulder. I don't even think gay people do that. Gay people do that. Gay, you don't put their balls on their shoulders? Like, why? He's like, no way, man.
Starting point is 01:47:02 You don't think, yeah, they don't have fun like that. They have straight fun. They'll put like a little pocket pussy on you. Ew. Get that. You wasn't a real fragel maggot. You a GMO fragget. You're a GMO fragget.
Starting point is 01:47:18 Jesus. Putting balls on the shoulder is crazy, giving it a little kiss. That feels like something like, like it's three more days of summer or some shit if that had. What do you think the Harlem Shake came from? Get the ball off my shoulder. Take this money. There's no way you can take it. So Diddy invented the remake?
Starting point is 01:47:38 Obviously. Do you think producer? Why do you think Black Rob says, whoa? That is how the Harlem shake came to be. Did he put it? his balls on somebody's shoulder after filming, get them to the Greek. That's good. And all that white boy fun with Jonah Hill and Russell Brand.
Starting point is 01:47:56 Who invented homosexuality? The Greeks. Wow. Why do you think we need to get them there? Why do you think we need to get them there, bro? Wow. Do the math. Wow.
Starting point is 01:48:09 Do the math. Wow. Let's face, let's do some masks. We got money about bills, Taylor? No. All right, let's do some asking idiots, right? Wait, though. There's so much more.
Starting point is 01:48:18 Like more. Okay, well, you have nothing against the Clarissa Shields. Shout out to Clarissa Seals. What does she do wrong? I'm confused when they'd be like, I don't condone violence. Isn't boxing, in a sense, violence? I know it's more like other stuff, but it's just still violent. I don't understand why women getting into a situation like this bothers people.
Starting point is 01:48:38 It isn't bother people. Male boxers and combat fighters, they see each other in the street, they talk shit, they push, they sometimes fight. It happens. I don't think Jake Paul should even be banning her from all in view. events after this. They was in each other face. Elisa told I'm going to fuck you up. Clarissa said, who are you going to fuck up? And Clarissa slapped them. Now we got a fight. Now we got a fight. Now what are we doing? This is a promotion for a fight. What's up? Clarissa, they get down to drop weight to fight to fight. Now we got a fight. What's the problem? This is great promotion, y'all.
Starting point is 01:49:10 I didn't understand why I say you don't condone violence. And kind of you do. Well, she means she don't condone violence outside of the ring. Okay, well, regardless, it's still violent. Okay, other than that, did y'all like, though, this new, oh, wait. Did you see the, you gave him dunk you the day, right? The grad students, they couldn't walk again. Oh, yeah, where they used AI, the school, what's the name of the school, Taylor? This school, I think it's Glendale.
Starting point is 01:49:42 And they got, they booed the person or whatever, yeah. They used AI to say the name. They used AI to say the name with a graduate. I mean, that's just lazy, bro. That's just lazy. And then... I mean, how diverse. One more, they did a new spin-off the Drake song.
Starting point is 01:49:59 I liked it, though. With their fresh friends. I thought that was clever. No? Listen up. It's about to be smoke. Ain't nothing but some shit I wrote. About a rich-ass nigger.
Starting point is 01:50:08 That's deep in the game. They call me Drizzie Drake, and I'm keeping a name. I swat Nike shoes. I got a mic to use to talk. about you, pussies. I don't like you fools. Got an Oakland show tonight, baby. My young boy's front of yonk going crazy.
Starting point is 01:50:22 No? Fire. He. No, you didn't like it. I thought it was clever. He's hating. You know what disgusts me? What?
Starting point is 01:50:30 When Will Smith did his freestyle. You all was keeping. No, y'all was skipping. When Will Smith did his freestyle, what was that freestyle? I am the son. No, the other one when he was like. Oh, yeah. He was sitting down around those stuff.
Starting point is 01:50:42 What's the one? Because Drake just stole his whole float. You know the one I'm talking about, man. I like girls or something? No, I do I, you know the shit I'm talking about, man. I am the mountains. I'm the grass. Oh, man, let me pull it up, yo.
Starting point is 01:50:56 Because Drake just goes his whole flow. Fire. What did you say? The lunch break freestyle. Oh, yeah. Come on, man. I got it right here. I feel like I'm just getting started.
Starting point is 01:51:10 They tried to finish me. I'm like the universe infinite. There's no end in me. Drake, don't know that? Not even close. Put on the fire one. This is what Drake stole. Put the fire one on.
Starting point is 01:51:24 I need that Will Smith right now. Put on the heat. With these mics, I feel like I'm custom model. Hundred rounds of life. Can you put on the fire one? Oh, here. No, here it is. Oh, here it goes.
Starting point is 01:51:36 And even though I'm an action star, sometimes I'm a act. When Will act bizarre, y'all don't like it. Drake it on a record and act bizarre. And y'all, it's heat, it's heat. The blaze is crazy. Stop disrespect. Make America glaze again, you. Put on, put on the fire Will Smith song.
Starting point is 01:51:57 That was it. No, the other one that we really fucking got. That was with Wish McAlley, right? Put that one on. Why can't y'all give Will credit when you just watch Drake Steel his whole flow? That whole action star, acting. bizarre line. He just did that over that Will Smith. I am a top. I am a bottom.
Starting point is 01:52:16 You know what? That's a pretty good. Do some laughing idiots. Come on. Lay that fucking Will Smith, give it. Put it in my name. I have no Will Smith, man. This is the one you want. Taylor.
Starting point is 01:52:28 Yes. Can we do some asking idiots, man? There's a lot more. You're going crazy, Taylor. There's so much more that y'all miss. What did we miss today? I just feel like on Wednesdays, that's when a lot of stuff comes out and then we miss it. That's pre-com. And then we did it for the comb.
Starting point is 01:52:44 We did a lot. We did a lot of pre-cum. We gave so much pre-crum. We hit the main topic. Yes, man. Alex is covered in semen. He looks like he's promoting nice now. There was a question about that.
Starting point is 01:52:55 What? Isn't that shit crazy? He does look crazy. All these guys covered themselves and come. Frozen semen and posted Ice Man came. That's disgusting, yo. Y'all are fucking. First, it was Ice Man coming.
Starting point is 01:53:09 Then when the album dropped, Everybody posting themselves frozen semen and said, Iceman came. Armando Munas says, would you rather listen to Only Drake's new albums for a year or be a frozen seaman ice man for a day? How did the semen get on me? Like, how did it happen?
Starting point is 01:53:31 No, it had to be applied by human beings. Like, actually, like me. They got to do that, yeah. You got to sit there and take it. You got to sit there and take it. Let me just to read this again. Rather listen to only. Drake's new albums for a year or be a frozen seaman ice man for a day.
Starting point is 01:53:48 What would you do, Alex? I'm going with the music. I'm listening to the music. What, the semen, his music theater is, frozen semen? You wouldn't do both? You want to do both, though? What would you rather do? Would you rather listen to only Drake's new albums for a year?
Starting point is 01:54:03 Yeah. Be a frozen semen ice man for a day. I'd rather listen to Drake's new house because I don't want the cement frozen. But if it's frozen, you can't get on it. It's like, it's really nothing to be frozen. That's the thing. It's frozen. It's like,
Starting point is 01:54:17 it's disgusting. What about you, Taylor? This has nothing to do with me. Oh, yeah, you don't know. How you got it to? It's nothing to do with me. Yeah, I'm a opt out, too. I don't really, I don't like either one of these options.
Starting point is 01:54:29 See, you guys aren't there. You're not there with the game. I just don't like either one of these options. I just don't like you. I just don't care for either one of these options in no way, shape, of form. Okay? You know what ICE stands for, right? But.
Starting point is 01:54:42 I come extra It's come everywhere You know You want us to grow up We're trying Every day we come in here And we try to grow to fuck up Okay
Starting point is 01:54:58 We leave here And go be responsible Adults to our wives We have children, man Isn't that crazy? Will you let children Will you let 240 something Just come in here
Starting point is 01:55:10 And make stupid gay dead You know, nobody's going to believe this in 30 years. Nobody. They're going to be telling stories about this in school. Yeah, there was a thing called podcasting where, like, friends would just talk about semen and balls on your shoulder. And they actually could do it for a living. It was a crazy way. Like, that's, will anybody believe this?
Starting point is 01:55:31 Man. Will anyone believe this 100 years from now? They're going to see it and think it's a eye. They got it. No, they're like, nah, it's the way that shit was real. No, they won't believe it. But then they're going to hear me say things like, yo, people were covered in frozen seamen. They're going to go on.
Starting point is 01:55:42 This shit, these old Instagram pages, like, yo, what is this? They were. Iceman came for real? Iceman came. All over them. Fabian Ruiz once says, is the age of being a romantic done with these young holes?
Starting point is 01:55:58 Fabian, I don't know why you asking us. What the hell do we know about young holes? You know what I'm saying? I don't know nothing about young folks, man. I will say this to you, young man. Romance is never done, okay? Romance only dies if you decide. to let it die.
Starting point is 01:56:14 That's a fact right there. That's the truth. Yeah. Speaking of a young host, there was a, um... Speak on them. There was an attorney or someone like that that was saying that there should be... Speak on these young hos, man. There should be...
Starting point is 01:56:27 Speak on them. They should make it legal for, like, 16-year-olds to get married and... Yo, chill out. No, I can show you on the video. Why they got to be, well, why do those 16-year-olds got to be young hosts? Because they're kids... But why they host? They don't think that the government should tell them to do with their kids.
Starting point is 01:56:42 Huh? That's what he said. Teller, Taylor. Look. Just read the title. Telling. Say what? Oklahoma State Representative Defense Keeping Child Marriage legal.
Starting point is 01:56:53 They want to take away the parents' right to give a 16-year-old permission to get married. The government shouldn't be telling us what to do with our kids. I didn't know that was a law. It was a law. You can let your kids get married at 16 years? Play this shit, Taylor. 18-year-old would be a kid. would be the only age you could get married at.
Starting point is 01:57:15 So they want to take away the parents' right to give a 16-year-old permission to get married. Whenever I hear, when I see a man in a cowboy hat talking like that, I don't need to hear about none of these archaic shit he got going on. Oh, this is a good one. Who's the most famous duck? Oh, go back to that.
Starting point is 01:57:32 Who's the more famous duck? Daffy or Donald? He very will. Donald. Donald by proximity. because Donald fuck with Mickey and Minnie and Goofy. He got the whole Disney World thing. Daffy's the black duck, right?
Starting point is 01:57:49 I always get them confused. I'm looking it up right now because I got Witchers' Wish. Yeah, Daffy's the Black Duck. But it's Donald. Like, Donald by proximity, Donald is Disney. You know, Daffy is Bugs Bunny them. I love Looney Tunes, but they never got to the level of Mickey and Minnie and Goofy and all of them. It's Donald by far.
Starting point is 01:58:07 I think Scrooge Mick. But he's nothing but an offshoot of Donald. He is? Yes. Donald and all of that shit is Donald is the OG or all of that shit. Dumptails, Scrooge. I think Daffy. All of that shit.
Starting point is 01:58:21 What about Darkwing? Duff. Duffy. Daffy wasn't space jam, though. They're all. Space Jam is a big deal. Exactly. But people, ain't nobody going to visit Daffy.
Starting point is 01:58:33 I don't know what Donald Duck looks like that ass. Yes, you do. Donald got the fucking sailor uniform on with the hat. I don't know Donald Duck. I know Darkwing. I know Donald. Donald, bro. I know the black one.
Starting point is 01:58:44 Yeah, I think the black one. That's Daffy, right? I think Daffy. Yeah, Daffy ain't fucking with it. I like Daffy. You would like some cracker-ass duck. Daffy ain't fucking with Donald, man. Some honky-ass duck.
Starting point is 01:58:54 I'm fucking with Daffy, dude. Scrooge Mick. Fire. They all fruit off Donald's tree. And he used to call up. Donald was the grimling that got wet and all them other ducks popped off. I don't know, man. Google who's the more famous duck, yo?
Starting point is 01:59:08 Who do they say it's the more, who? Daffy or Donald. Who's more famous? They're gonna say Donald. Oh, shit. Who came first? That's the good.
Starting point is 01:59:13 Who did come first? Paul. No. Donald came first? I think. Yeah, that's Disney. Oh, wait. Who's more famous?
Starting point is 01:59:21 Yeah, who's more famous? Daffy or Donald? What the fuck did you say? Not bad. Not bad. Who's more famous? Who's more? You got to go to all, not in a movie.
Starting point is 01:59:29 I think it's Daffy, man. Don't, yes. Yeah. Oh, wait a minute. Disney. Who talks like this? Donald. All right, Donald's more famous.
Starting point is 01:59:38 Yes. Because that's that sound It's like makes kids laugh. See, look at this. Donald Duck often considered Disney's most versatile character because they make so many other motherfuckers off of Donald.
Starting point is 01:59:49 Darkwing screws, the three little nephews, all fruit off Donald's tree, man. And then Daffy, what's Daffy? What is Daffy's the black one? Daffy's the black duck. But Daffy was funnier. Getting his beak shot off all the motherfucking.
Starting point is 02:00:04 Nah, bro. Oh, Daffy, the one that, Elma Fudge used to shoot his fucking beef off. That's Elber Fudd is beefing with them. Yes. Drake got a line about that. They just made a black duck for no reason to get shot at. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:00:17 They're mad racist. That's crazy. That's crazy. You know the white gloves got something to do a race too? What white gloves? Like all the cartoons you ever, like old cartoons they have white gloves. I read something where it had to do with some type of racism. Yeah, don't be laughing at Taylor, Alex.
Starting point is 02:00:33 It's true. You want me to look it up? And I'll show you, Alex. He's doing it. She's doing her best, man. She's going to hear of fun facts, and you fucking laugh. I know, why don't live in anyway. You don't want to get your nails done.
Starting point is 02:00:42 Damn. Damn. Damn, fraggle maggot. Yeah. When in doubt, just call them out. That's what you got to do. You and your back against the wall, just let a fragging macket fall. Okay, he'll get right above you.
Starting point is 02:00:56 I think Alex's faces against the wall. Let's do one more, Taylor, gang. What else we got, Taylor, gang? Give us one more, Taylor. It says it right here. The white gloves. What white gloves mean? It says it right.
Starting point is 02:01:12 Why is that so funny to you? It literally says to how. This phrase white gloves. It's connecting to black, please. Settled, systemic, or historical forms of racial bias in discussions about race and media, it commonly highlights the connection between classic animation styles and the racist history of minstrel shows. Okay. I didn't doubt you, Taylor.
Starting point is 02:01:29 It was this fraggle maggot over here. I was all with you. I just found it funny. It's interesting. All right, go. One more. Ooh, let's see. Just proposed.
Starting point is 02:01:46 Oh, now, now let's end with this. Let's end the way we started. Young underscore Mamba 96. Is Ice fan actually good, or Drake stands just sucking too hard? Honestly. You're a hate, like, you're really a hater. It's crazy.
Starting point is 02:02:04 Respect my consistency. Honestly, I do. Can nobody respect my consistent? Yeah, we will. We will. I'm consistent. You might not be objective, but you are consistent. I am very objective.
Starting point is 02:02:15 If the objective is to shit on Drake, then yes. I don't shit on Drake. You ain't never heard me shit on Drake. Gosh, you was. Nobody out there never heard me shit on Drake. That guy y'all had a conversation. What was he trying to tell you that he's actually a really good rapper and stuff? What are you talking about?
Starting point is 02:02:32 When the picture you have of y'all, like, laughing, holding the bottles. Drake is petty and you. evil just like I am. It was for the plot. Okay, we had a common enemy at the time. That's all. It's cool. It's fine.
Starting point is 02:02:47 It's fine. We had a common enemy at a radio station at the time. That's it. It's for the plot. For the plot. I like a person that understands the plot. All right. That's why I'm so upset the last two years.
Starting point is 02:03:04 Let it go. Let it go. You lost the plot and it's okay. On to the next. next thing. All right? But none of y'all want to answer the question because you got the fucking ice man glaze all over your motherfucking mouth. Huh? Is it really that good? Are you just sucking too hard? Alex? The album's good. Why are you saying it's, what makes it good though? The songs. Good songs. Songs on it, the sounds of the song. You don't think you've heard those
Starting point is 02:03:27 type of sounds or songs before? I'm just saying it reminds me of old school Drake, though, that's but that's why I say Drake is shit fillet. People enjoy, gives you what you want. People enjoy to see the mighty fall, but they also like to see the mighty comeback. He didn't fall. He just lost a rap battle. Yeah, but there's a little fall there. I'm glad that they, but no, no, let them continue saying that it was a fall, and now he's trying to come back.
Starting point is 02:03:51 Good for him. And they root for the comeback. So they enjoy seeing the fall. You want their comeback. You want that comeback all over your face. You want it frozen so you can post ice man. Hey! That's what it is.
Starting point is 02:04:04 You know some of that comeback, too, don't you want you, Alex? Alex, you want some of that comeback? All you Drake fans want some of that comeback? Huh? You want some of that comeback? Yo, white people, white people. White people, we got to stop teaching them gay jokes. We got to stop it right now.
Starting point is 02:04:20 They're taking it too far. Yeah, they're talking. We taught them basketball. They started dunking from the free throw line. This is what it looks like. Shout out to it's come everywhere, man. Okay. It's come everywhere, man.
Starting point is 02:04:31 It's a cool album. It's a cool album, all right? He's got some sticky songs on there. There's some songs that's going to stick for the summer. And the pot. As always, if you listen to this podcast, you think we're smart, you think we're intelligent, you think we're brilliant, you're absolutely right.
Starting point is 02:04:47 But if you listen to this podcast, I think we're just a couple idiots who don't know shit and you're right, too. It's a brilliant idiotous podcast. Thank you for listening.
