Yep, Salomey the guy. Andrew Shulke. We are the brilliant idiots podcast, back for another week of brilliant idiotness. How's the Kyle Walker? Hello, sir. How are you, man? Is the movie done? One more day.

I think I got one or two more days. Ooh, is like like pickups or? No, this is just like, it takes place in all these different track meets. It's like high school tracks. So you have to have a different location for each one. So you have to kind of work around the filming of that. Stressful? No, actually, like, the most easy chill.

My life is regular is busy and stressful. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So being able to, like, sit in a trailer all day. Hurry up and wait. Hurry up and wait. Going there when it's time and do your scenes. They're not wasting a dollar so everything is on super duper time. That's it.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. The harder thing I'm sure is being away from the family. That's the thing that's difficult. But, like, it made me think about it. It's like, look, if you can find a way to do things in the city where you live, your kids are just coming by set and hanging out. Like, that's the life. I mean, it's worth it.

I mean, look at this biggest superstar in Hollywood, Tom Holland, right? Biggest. The biggest. The biggest. And it's not even close. Tom said he's not even going to work for another three, four years. That's what he said. That's what he said.

He's taking a break. Tom, you did it, man. You're about to get 100 M's off Spider-Man. Tom, you did it. And bonuses. Forget Spider-Man success. Forget all that. You have somehow transcended Caucasian greatness in a way where Charlemagne is celebrated.

I think it's because you're British. I think if you were a white boy from America, he would have to push back, but you have done it. Maybe. I might be grading him on a little curve, you know what I'm saying, because he's from British, but. And he got black wife. But that's true, too.

Dea matters. She's half, though, right? Whoa, whoa, whoa. So that matters. Are we doing that? Are we doing that? Are we doing halves now? Listen, give people they credit.

There's African-Americans. But the father is black, I mean. Like, what's right? The father is black. The father's black, though. Oh, she's black. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Wait, the father's black, you're black?

The daddy's black, you get a little more than 50. You like... And the house black. Oh, I'm black. What's your wife? What's your mom? Puerto Rican. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

And his dad is black. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You there, you there. You're there. You're not a hundred, but you're like, you know, you're in the 80. Okay. No, but tell them what else. Tell them what else.

What? I'm still waiting for him to come home from the milk. Oh, that's crazy. Oh, you know, you know, I don't have a dad. You don't have a dad. I don't know you didn't know. I didn't know you didn't know you didn't know you didn't. I fuck around.

I don't. We have a good relationship. What percentage does they give him? Who, Alex? Yeah. He's a high, he's low 80s, high 90s. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But shout out to Tom, $100 million bonus because of Spider-Man brand new day. He got a hundred million dollar bonus. Yes, because that what the fucking, I guess, That's because of how much the movie's grossed and shit like that. Look it up. I just saw it a little while ago. Damn, Tom.

$100 million bonus, man. Half of Charlotte's paycheck. Yo, Spider-Man. Spider-Man. Yeah, but he got that off one fucking project. That's a few bunch of work. You know what I'm saying? I'm out here for the next 20 years.

Okay? I got a 20-year deal. He put 10 years in that franchise so he could make that. He's the new Robert Downey. He's the new Robert Downey for Marvel, yo. Wait a minute, wait a minute. No, come on. No, you might be.

Come on. He might be. No, it's not. No, it's not. If you don't see him in Doomsday, you're upset. If you don't see him in Dooms Day, you're upset. Word is born. Word is born.

If Doomsday only gives us one Spider-Man and it's Toby, it's a letdown. Whoa, whoa, whoa. It's a little letdown. No, you were going crazy with that. I did a deep dive on Spider-Man. I just won't let you know. I had a couple drinks on when we- Oh, you went to go see it.

Which one? Brand-new day. Yeah. Yes, what did you think? Oh, I didn't see it the last time we spoke? No, you was gone. You had to shoot the movie. That movie was good, man.

It was good. Tom. Mm-hmm. He's, Toby's still to go. Nah, you're not. You're fighting it. You're fighting it for no reason.

You're fighting it for no reason. You're being a contrarian for no reason. No, I'm not. You know it's not true. This is how much I wanted to test my theory. When I was flying out to L.A., I watched the one No Way Home. Fire.

Fire. What's your favorite part of No Way Home? If you're being honest with yourself. Of course it's when the reveal happens and when fucking Toby comes through the point. and fucking Andrew Garfield comes through the portal. So who did you mention first? Toby, because he came through first, didn't he?

No. But you remember it like he did. But you remember. He didn't come through first. I remember he didn't have an outfit on. And I was like, what the fuck, Toby? Who the fuck do you think you are? That's why he didn't announce he was Spider-Man,

we're false. Eh, eh. He's aging crazy, though. See, this is the hate this unnecessary. Don't you think so? I'm just starting to think that Toby might have smashed one of your girls back in the day. Don't you think? Because this is the type of energy you're given right now.

Yeah, that'd be fires, Spider-Man smash the girl, right? You don't think he webbed one- That's what I'm saying. You know what I'm saying? You mean, he'd be like, yo, she'd be like, yo, he squirted some white, sticky stuff on me. And you'd be like, are you sure it was cum?

You know, that's the metaphor, right? What? For Spider-Man. What? The whole thing about Spider-Man is just going through puberty. Huh? Like, the character is based on going through puberty. Oh, that kind of, you can see that in the new one,

the brand new day. That's what, you know what, that's why I understood why Soldier Boy said Superman. Spider-Man would have made way more sense. Superman is because you nut on her back and the sheets attached to it. Everybody's doing that. That is true. You know what I'm saying? It's way more Spider-Man. You're shooting sticky white stuff all over her. You know what I'm saying? You know what I mean? It can be organic. You know me? You ever seen the Spider-Man porno where the guy got the dildoes on his wrist? You're looking at Marvel porn?

It should just be on my algorithm, yo. This is dumb shit. No. You want to look that up. You're a nerd, bro. You should be on my algorithm. You know my favorite shit on my algorithm, yo? Magic and Gathering Pornow.

Somebody does these vertical dramas, these microdramas, and it's called Fruit Prison. Oh, God. Fruit Prison had me in a chokehold. What's straight prison, then? No. What makes it? I knew he was going to. I think something like that.

It's actual fruits in prison. Yeah. So it's like apple, banana, orange, watermelon. They're all locked up. Watermelon is the protagonist. He's like the big fucking diesel-ass villain. Apple is like a good guy, but he got locked up with some bullshit, so he's trying to get out.

The shit is actually really good. It's the thing. Apple won that fade, but I'm gonna get my lick back on my mama. I don't know what you've heard, Newby. but this my prison Yo, AI slot It might work out for people like this Listen, that's how I like my AI

Make me a nice little two-minute micro-drama That I'm just flipping through Like, oh, that's actually good Yo, if you go back to jail, are you gay? Depends what you go back for. Does you go back just for the cock? That's what I'm saying, like if you know what happened in jail And then you go back

What if you go to- That's gay? What if you go to jail, get some head from a guy, get out, try to go back the pussy. And you're like, nah. I can't. I got to steal. You know what I'm saying? I got to rob a gun.

Got ourselves and they're like, yo, get off the corner. They don't attach you. Oh, that'll be good, though. You know what pirates call treasure, right? Booty. You know why? You know how that happened? You know how that fucking happened.

You know, Somali, you're gay. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Somali pirates, y'all are gay. Y'all are so gay. Wanting booty, gay. Yeah, and booty. What we got, Taylor, gay?

You okay? We just here. We just potting. We just potting, man. That's saltwater booty. You know, they got a fucking delicacy called pirate booty. That is fact.

They sell it in stores. Popcorn in a bag. Can I ask you this question, though, about Marvel, Spider-Man, the whole universe? Yep. After watching the latest Spider-Man, did it make you want to go back

and watch some of the other Marvel films? No. Interesting. None of them. Interesting. Not one of them. I'm not even looking forward to Dooms Day like this.

That's crazy. They got me with the latest one. Oh, I'm watching. I'm not saying I'm not watching. I'm going to watch. I will be in theaters on December 18th or 19th to watch. I'm simply saying there's no anticipation.

There's been no buildup. Because the last Marvel phase wasn't that great. I feel like they completely... Go, go, go, finish it. It wasn't that great. Like, I've been saying it a million times on this pod, after end game, they should have came back with the mutant saga. Now we're on a whole other earth.

They could have gave us the fantastic full movie. We were on a whole other earth. They could have gave us to Spider-Man, the No Way Home, because that is also talking about the multiverse. They could have gave us Dr. Strange multiverse and madness. all the TV shows and all that shit, we ain't need none of that. I guess Loki, Loki, Loki,

we needed Loki, I guess, to be connective tissue. But that would have made even the homework you got to do to watch some of these movies easier because if they only gave us like, Wanda Vision and Loki, just those two shows. Marvel fans would have watched those,

so everybody would have been caught up. And then by now, we'd have been ready for, like, the multiverse and incursions and all of that shit like that. There's been no real buildup for this shit like that. My feeling is like, doomsday just erases all the shit that they put out that no one

gave them. Bang. But doomsday is too strong of a villain for them to just be fighting. You remember in the first phase they had nice warm-up fights it was Loki, right? Then it was Ultron. Then you got the motherfucking. Then it was each other. They had to fight each other. Right? In the Civil War, then

you got to Thanos and everybody, right? That's what you got to do before you get the doom. You don't just give me doom. Let me. Let me fuck up King first. Oh, but like Andrew said, it's a race from what we tried to do after endgame. And continuation. So now this is after Thanos. Yeah.

And that's the perfect. But what do you do with doom and fucking Galactus? You've introduced two of your strongest villains. And what do we do from here? What do we go from here? Fight him. Got to see. Doom and Galactus.

I guess Apocalypse. X-Men. Yeah, we got to see. How do you know it's actually doom? No, it definitely did. I don't. You're right? It's definitely doomed.

I don't know. Yo, and think about how ill it would have been. How do we don't know there's two dunes? Yo, think about how ill it would have been if we would have saw. Iron Man's coming back. Sorry to interrupt. But Iron Man. I think Iron Man.

Well, you could come. I think it. Doom ended up being, what was it, Ultimate Iron Man or Inventable Iron Man? I can't remember. But think about this. Imagine watching the Mutant Saga, watching the Fantastic Four movie, watching Spider-Man, No Way Home, watching Multiverse of Madness. And after the end of a couple of movies, just like how you saw a little bit of Thanos, you just saw Doom watching the whole thing.

And now it makes sense when Doom come back and like all of y'all been living lives that were motherfucking stolen. Yeah, but they didn't have the rights to the X-Men after Endgame. Yes, they did. No, they just got the rights back like two years ago. No, it's been longer than that. No, swear to God. No, no, it's not been longer than two. It's been longer than two.

It's been longer than two. Look it up. Yeah, it's been longer than two. It's definitely been longer than two. What else? Taylor, what we got, Taylor? What the fuck do we have? Huh? All right, well, just since we're talking about Marvel,

I saw something that was, they made all the cast of Black Panther whitewash. And I thought that was funny. AI helped whitewash Marvel's Black Panther and his comedy goal. Who's that the trance? Yeah. Oh, shit, I'm wrong. You're right. Yeah, it was a while ago. 2019.

Yeah. Oh, why haven't they? No. One legend was erased for history. Hold on. Not because she was weak. That is so... Because ever since Juno things got weird.

This is what a man looks like, ladies, and I'm a black panther from the waist down. Any time I see something of value from the EBT community. The boy, who's that? Tom Holland. I'm compelled to take it. I must have it. Like Zendaya. You're a race.

Thomas Kill Monster is hilarious. Real men watch the WNBA Monica. Don't make me slap the shit out of you. A beautiful name. Until now. Mommy, am I a real boy now? You can't make Mimau's potato salad without raisins and fresh raccoon meat, you idiot. What the fuck is this, man?

This is what they're building the data center for, bro? Driven by destiny. Yo, Philmore data centers, man. They're fucking the environment of this type of a shit. Has led to this moment. I'm a boy so I can technically have my shirt off whenever I want. This isn't the birth of a hero. It's the return of a legend.

I told my wife, I said, yo, you know that was Uno and Odyssey? She was like, duh. In a world of mayonnaise sand. That's pretty good. That's funny. Who's Lina Denham supposed to be? Now, look at Jerry with the bowl in his lips. That's insane, bro.

That is insane. That was good. That was good. What else we got, Taylor, gang? What else we got Taylor gang, gang? People were making fun of how ice cube dance for some reason. God damn, Taylor, I don't want, Taylor, here the thing. No?

I don't want anything that makes you laugh. Because you be high as shit. Okay. But just we're playing. We're potted. We're just potted. We can't even see this stuff. Yo, why they're so angry at Sophie Cunningham for trying to maintain job security? I thought we talked about this already, man. Somebody sent me, I didn't even know. Somebody sent me a lower third yesterday. It was Fox News and it said,

Shalameen to God, says trans tissue is dumb. I'm like, oh my God. Somebody just sent me this shit. What they said? I thought Shult was here when we was talking about it. It was Lauren. I swear me a show was talking about it. But I just had like one to bring this up with social media. See, Charlemagne Dumb for Dems to debate trans sports.

It is stupid. It's just a stupid culture war conversation that's a point. It's actually pointless because there's nothing there. What are we even debating? What are people arguing at this point about trans shit, yo? In the WNBA. I don't know. I don't know either.

Nobody fucking knows. You know why? Because soon as the conversation starts. People veer you often something that has nothing to do with the conversation? Like, what do they say? Do you think biological men should play in the WNBA if you were born a biological man and you're trans? Now should you play in the WMBA?

The floor is yours. The floor is yours. I mean, you already know my joke about it. I forgot. Brick a duh. I want women to know what white people went through when we let black people play sports. You mean, shut the fuck. Complete dominance.

Can they run faster and jump higher? Oh, no. Oh, the quality sucks, doesn't it? You create arbitrary rules that allow you to compete. By the way, that'll change everything. That'll change everything. This shit will change so motherfucking fast. People will stop this stupid shit.

Immediately. As soon as they see somebody come out there and average, 52 points, 27 rebounds, and no assist the game because they don't have no reason to pass the fucking ball. Yeah. They will have no reason to pass the ball. 100%.

I don't want that for nobody, man. I just think it's a stupid discussion. It's just dumb to get caught in a culture war at a time like this. The midterms are around the corner. Democrats should take back everything if they just shut the fuck up. But they can't.

Is that not crazy? Shut the fuck up, Charlotte. Is that not fucking crazy? How are you blowing layups? How do you blow fucking layups? This is not even something to discuss, right? You got Hakeem Jeffries on Meet the Press there, and he's not for Medicare for all. Just to be very clear, though, as a Democratic leader in the House,

would you vote for or against Medicare for all? I think, as you've indicated in your question to me, it's not legislation that I currently am co-sponsoring or that I support. Okay. Like, just shut the fuck up. Okay. Shut up, man. What do you want them to say?

About the transition. Nothing. There's nothing to be said about it. I thought Cocoa Gough had a good thing to say about it. That tennis player? Yeah. I saw it, but I didn't pay it no tennis. I thought it was very well articulate.

She did. I don't like that because I hear people talk and they're tiptoeing around landmines. No, she didn't say that. She was like, keep these mutants out of my game. She said that? Really? She said that?

You didn't hear that? No. Oh, I thought she called them mutants because they were X-Men. I was like, what the fuck was that? That's what I thought it was going. You want to go again? Let's hear it. Let's set it up again.

You know, let's set it up again. I thought Cocoa got something really good to say about it. What did she say? She said something like, keep these mutants off my tennis. Why did she call them mutants? Because they're ex-men? Yo! Let's hear what Coco had to say.

What did Coco say, yo? This kind of conversation is... No, we did it. We can keep that. That's a joke. That was fired. Listen, equality is equality. We can't joke.

Those are jokes. Come on, guys. Cut it out. Nothing with... Let's hear what she had to say, Taylor, Game. I think that this kind of conversation is created a lot of animosity towards the trans community, which I'm not really a big fan of, but I also understand the need to, I guess, the biological difference and the need to

protect that and preserve that. I guess kind of agree with trying to protect the fairness in women's sports, but I also do not like the attack that it is creating. I definitely support the trans community, but I also support the need of creating fairness. I do think that this kind of conversation... You know what's crazy. You know who I haven't heard in this conversation. Trans people? Yes. Who? Where are the...

Have you talked to any about it? No, but where are the trans people clamoring to be in the WNBA? I haven't even heard... Like, where... Why is this a discussion? It's so stupid. Every trans person that I've talked to, I've asked about the sports issue. I go, what do you think about the thing? And everyone has said the exact same thing, independently.

We have way bigger issues than sports. It's not even in our top 10. They're all like, we don't want to get killed and we go out on a date. We want to be able to rent an apartment from somebody without them finding out we're trans and not wanting to rent. This is like a huge distraction

from the real issues that we have in our life and actually makes our life harder. That's America. America does not know how to talk about macro issues. We focus on the fucking micros, the shit that don't even fucking matter. Once again, where are the trans people on this? I haven't spoken to any trans people about this.

No, have I seen any trans people speaking out about this? But the reality is it's not really even about it is about them, but it's not about them. No, it is a stupid culture war that people are getting folks caught up in a conversation just so they can continue to say, look, where the common sense party and they're still talking about motherfucking, you know. Exactly. They don't know the difference between men and women or women and men. Like, this is just dumb shit. Like, it's like, what are we talking about here, yo? Shut up.

No, it's people on the right one to be like, look how ridiculous. People on the left are. They'll defend anything and they're not locked in reality. That's right. But people on the left fall for it every single fucking time. Why?

As if there's not bigger things to talk about. You could say that there's a lot of animosity and hatred around this issue, which I don't like and I don't disagree with. But I also believe in maintaining the fairness in sports. And fortunately, that we have to do that by allowing, you know, people born that gender,

born that sex. All you can say I identify as a mute. Stopping the WMBA from saying that. Saying what? They had to have a meeting. They had to have a meeting about... They did. And they're like booing Sophie Cunningham

at every fucking stadium she goes to. It's like crazy, but it's also great for her. Salute to the WNBA. Did you see what Don Stanley said about the WMBA and racism? I thought that shit was great because she was absolutely positively right. They're post-racies?

No, she said it's a right of passage. Hold on. I'm going to get her exact quote. She said it's a right of passage and she said the same thing happened in the motherfucking NBA. and she said we'll be okay. Hold on. I agree with that.

Yes. Hold on. Let me see if I can find the exact quote. But you think there's racism that's existing now in the WMBA? And the WMBA? Like towards Katelyn Clark? I think it's racism, period. I think Caitlin, Sophie, I think it's racism towards the black women who people think for whatever reason are jealous and envious to Sophie. I think that these girls can't even go out there and play basketball without people making it a racist. issue because if you do a hard foul on a Sophie Cunningham or a hard foul on a Caitlin Clark

is racism even though you watch fucking Angel Reese and other players get body slammed to the fucking ground. I don't think that's the, I think the argument is like why is Caitlin Clark listed as like the 11th best guard in the league? Why was she left off the national team? Like I think those are the things. Who got left off the national team? Didn't, uh, didn't Caitlin get left off the year?

No, she's on the team this year. No, last time. Last year. That's not, that's not surprising. Put it like this. Olivia Miles isn't on there this year. and Olivia Miles is smoking shit. She's a rookie, and she's in WNBA

MVP conversations. Caitlin got left off, I think, her rookie year, if I'm not mistaken. That was the last time they had a national team, right? Am I making that up? I think because last year she was hurt. But Don Stanley said all the big pieces and all the things that are happening

from a racial standpoint, from an officiating standpoint, are great. They're great because the NBA went through it. The NBA went through all of it. So this is just badges of honor. Will we get through it? We will get through it. Yes.

Okay, listen to Don Staley. And Don, we motherfucking trust. All of this is great for the league. My problem is that the W&B don't know how to market this shit. It seems like they're doing a good job of it. Nah, that's social media. Like, they don't know how to lean into it.

Like, they're not leaning into any of this. So what would you do? The way that they should. I wouldn't cry about it. You know what I mean? I wouldn't, I would let it play out. And let the girls, the women, have honest conversation

going on in the WMBA. I remember phone calls with Isaiah Thomas and Isaiah Thomas would say shit like if Larry Bird was black he would just

A regular player A regular player Rodman said it too That was the big moment in the NBA They had to get past that Say that Which was ridiculous

How many rings Did Larry have? Three No he might have had No Larry got three Larry got three I keep track of white people How many rings

How many rings Isaiah? Two Back to back With the pistons Babe You don't get to talk No, no, no, no, no, cut you wally. You don't get to talk.

Nah, no, no. Only three for Larry. What you mean, only? Three is great. If you got less rings than the number one guy, if you're the number one guy in your team, and you got less rings than the number one guy in the other team, you really don't get to talk.

Nah, no, no, no. Tell me why I'm wrong. Zeke went back-to-back and he beat the Celtics. That was a different time, bro. I think it was a great, great, great player. Yeah, man. It was on a different level. Yeah.

For sure. But still, Zeeke won back-to-back titles in Detroit. You don't get to say that Burrubes. nobody would talk about if he was black. If he won three NBA championships as the best player in his team, he won every single level. He had won three.

He had won three yet. It was hate. Everybody knew it at the time. It was they were hating on him. He hated on Jordan too. What's that hate? He's just a hater. Was that hate our an observation guy?

Isaiah a hater, man. By the way, Larry Bird was good for the NBA. The Larry Bird Magic Johnson rivalry was good for the NBA. It was. Man, I saw a fucking an ad the other day when Magic Johnson and Larry Bird was back to back, cheek to cheek,

straight up. And I'm sitting there thinking to myself, God damn, this was the 80s. And think of all of the diversity that we had. I'm going to show you this shit. Talking about the Converse as? Yes. This shit checked off a lot of boxes. You got a black man? Let me show it to you, man. I can't believe you've never seen this ad. Hold on. God damn it, where is this shit at? He could have caught it. Nah, this is before Magic had it, man. What's wrong with you? You don't know when he got it.

No, this is before Magic had it. You don't know when he got it. What are you talking about, man? You don't know when he got it. You tried to find out. I figured. Why wouldn't I try to find out? Why do y'all sit with people and not ask the obvious questions?

I mean, that's the one we all want to know. Slupe to Cash App. Cash App does more than you think when it comes to having your back and making sure your money stays your money, okay?

Tell me this is not a suck. What the fuck, man? I just had it. Tell me this is not a diverse ad, yo. Is that not diversity? Why their cheeks? A black man and white man back to back. Yo, Larry kind of got more cheeks than magic, man.

I'm not going to lie. He do, he too. Larry Bill. I was thinking this was Photoshop, but I was like, they didn't have Photoshop back in the air. Somebody might have did this picture's Photoshop. I ain't no way they had it like that, Joe. That's why they postgame used to be so crazy, you.

They back you down with that shit. You got to play juvenile back that ass up while this shit playing, yo. Yo, Larry was back. for a white woman. Look at that thing. You see this shit, Taylor? Taylor started smiling when she saw fucking Larry. That's just they choose your weapon.

What are we talking about? Basketball are cheeks. And you know there was a photographer. It was like a little closer? I'm thinking of both. I'm thinking them both of them. You got that. They're tall.

I'm thinking in both of them. The crazy thing is, think about the diversity in this ad. White man, black man. They're cheek to cheek. So, you know, they're not homophobic in any way, shape, or form. You know what I'm saying? Which weapon would you choose? Why do I think they're sticking the butt out too, though?

They just built different. Yeah, what did the photographer tell them? You're not a photographer be telling you to too much. There you go. There you go. Like post each other up from the back. Yeah, put one cheek in between the other. Like you act like you posting them up, and then you act like you posting them up,

and just let your cheeks touch. That's crazy. Oil up your ankles, let your cheeks touch. How do you remember certain things? Huh? How can you forget this? You guys, see, y'all don't remember monoculture like I do, yo. This is all we had.

I was literally talking to the guys today about this. Like, I miss monoculture so bad. When everybody knew everything. No, well, yes, but it wasn't. It wasn't everybody knew everything. It's that we all only knew a few things. Even if you didn't know it, you knew the references. You knew you were aware of it.

I didn't even have to watch certain shit to know what people were referencing, yo. It's so funny when, like, the younger generations experience monoculture, how excited they get. Like, they'll say things. They'll be like, man, that World Cup was so much fun. And you'll just be like, that was every week. That was every fucking. There was a new, like, the OJ trial was monoculture. Oh, my God.

So it's like, I was telling out of this, it's like the whole idea, the romanticization of, like, the barbershop is just monoculture. Yeah. It's the ability to, it's the bar for some guy or like pub or whatever. or when you're in England or whatever. It's like the ability to walk into a place with people that you know or don't know immediately spark up a combo and everybody is aware of what's going on.

Yes. And these kids today don't have it. They don't have monoculture at all. Everything's way too fragmented, Joe. There's only a few things that might be monoculture. And it's got to be the biggest or the biggest, bro. I don't know. I don't know if that's the biggest or the biggest.

Drewski. Not the same. You don't think he's monoculture? I'll give you an example. Saturday Live at its peak. Yep. Buckwheat, when Buckwheat was assassinated, you guys are too young for this. No, we weren't.

But Buckwheat's assassinated? Oh, you know, no, to the point we're making, I remember the reference, I know that he got assassinated. I don't remember. That was Eddie Murphy. That Monday, that happened Saturday night. Yeah. That's all you could talk about at school for a week.

That's funny. I remember hearing that. I had no idea what the references from, but I remember. The rock. During his WWE. Monoculture. Even if you didn't even watch WWE. You don't think Druskiy monoculture?

No. And this is this is no disrespect to Druski He's existing at a time He's the closest He's he's He's skits can get there for sure What about certain sketches?

Was the white girl thing? Was the Charlie, the Erica Kirk Or the Republican woman sketch? Monoculture? I would say it wasn't monoculture I would say it was internet culture Meaning if you were at any part of the internet If you existed on the internet

It went there My parents don't know about it That's exactly that's what I said Monoculture is when your parents know When you got to stop you When you hear your mom or dad make the reference. And you're like, what the hell? You know what I'm saying? No, no, you're right. Monoculture is you could walk into a room having discussed nothing, not knowing those people.

Bring up. So what do you guys think about? And everybody knows what's going on. Yeah, I'm taking my talents to South Beach. Mono-monoculture. And the World Cup. And the World Cup. and the World Cup were the two close. Yo, the Knicks run. Knicks and five. Knicks and five is monoculture. Nix and five is monoculture. World Cup monoculture. Unfortunately, political shit. Iran. Not really? No, Iran is monoculture. Iran is. Like, you could stay straight of

Urmuz to people and they know what you're talking about now. A year ago, they would have no fucking clue. Taylor, you know the great of harm moves? What? You know the scraity of Hormuz? I don't understand what you're saying. Do you know the scrate of Hormuz? Where in the world? No. That's what I'm saying? That shit is not monoculture.

That's not. That's not you're trying to give me this off like, wait. It's not. But I knew, it's not. Like, nobody is not. You shouldn't pay tax. No, it's not. It's not. Like, that's too much good. Here's the thing. When it comes to politics, it's too much going on.

The only thing political and monoculture and politics. I think one of the presidential debates happens that reaches that level. Yeah. No. Donald Trump saying fake news. Like his little slogans, build the wall. Like those are monoculture slogans. You ready, monoculture?

This is monoculture. I don't know if this is tap and sailor, but this is monoculture. Trump's shitting his pants. I don't think that's monoculture. I don't think that's monoculture. I don't think that's monoculture. I don't think a lot of people understand that. Really?

No. Did you hear about that, Taylor? That he's shooting his pants out? Yeah. I didn't know who he's shooting it. I thought he farted. Do you know that we're at war with Iran? Do you know we're at war with Iran?

Yes. All right, so she knows. He knows where a war. I'm saying, as a story, Epstein F-Clein files or monoculture. Epstein was monoculture. Epstein is definitely monoculture. You can use the reference. anywhere, everybody gets it, everybody understands.

I would say when... Super Bowl, Monoculture. Super Bowl, half-sand-show, monoculture. 100%. Certain deaths. Michael Jackson. Yep. Yeah.

But that was the era of monoculture. It doesn't count if it exists within the era. Yeah, I'm talking about stuff that exists. Yeah, I was already starting to get fragmented. But... No. Britney Spears shaving her head was monoculture, yeah, yeah. Michael Jackson wasn't fragmented in the old...

What was that? Old... Yes. What year was that? O'9? The fragmentation has only happened in the last decade. maybe even the last six last five

yeah I think last five like the last monoculture we really had and it was a blip but COVID was pure monoculture because all of us

were experiencing there was much less shit out and all of us were experienced at the same time the last dance documentary remember then that when that shit hit monoculture

that was like water in the desert oh my God it was amazing and they bumped it up joy Floyd Floyd Floyd Floyd did they're swinging yep

We said that before. We said that, Taylor. I mean, that whole era was monoculture, though. The mask, the separation of six feet. You know what I'm saying? Like all, that whole, everything was monoculture. Because we were shut down. Versus?

Huh? Was versus? No. Approaching. Damn. Yeah. Not by everybody. Two segmented.

Two segmented. I know someone that's monoculture. Well, I don't know about any more. Who? But before Soja Boy. Yeah. But he was before the era. He was of the era.

of monoculture. We're trying to say right now. What's the era then? What's the year? Six years ago and before. Yeah. Would Drake and Kendrick be? Yes.

Yeah. A hundred percent monoculture. But that's because you're dealing with the two biggest rap stars of the last 15 years. Like both of them had already crossed over. So white people were fully aware of them. Latinos were fully aware of those two individuals. You know what I'm saying? Like Asians were fully aware.

of them. And if you were American, you were fully aware of them already. Yes, that was absolutely monoculture. But it does, it is, uh, it is kind of annoying because the fact that we're not invested in monoculture means you either talk to a specific tiny group of the internet and they get it and nobody else does. Or you speak to, and in order to talk to them, you have to speak to them in the most extreme way. Why are you holding a cock? Is that what a cop is being gay is monoculture? Is that what a cock looks like? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You're holding it. Like, why are you doing you,

and you're doing the basket weave to it, bro? God damn. How would you go from mono to culture in, like, in a span of two seconds? That was crazy, bro. I know, I did get a little while. Like, why? That was on me.

That was on me. Jesus Christ. It's that cheek to cheek, man. I can't. But, no, yeah, monoculture. I was thinking we were talking about last week about a different world and a different world coming back to Netflix.

Oh, yeah. And I don't think people would realize how big a different world was. different world was a hundred percent monoculture, bro. Why people didn't watch? Did you watch it? You, mind you, you don't have to watch it. You know about it.

We were aware of it. Very much. It was the number two, it was the number two most highest rated show in America. I think Martin was more monoculture than a different world. And live in color. And fresh prints. That's interesting because, you know,

and the reason it was interesting is because neither one of them did the numbers that different world did. That's interesting. A different world was a spinoff from the Cosby show, which was a high, The height of monoculture. Do you know how much, you know the highest rated episode of different world? No.

36 million views. That's big. Random Thursday night. 36 million. But it was only four channels. There's only four channels. Right. Can I ask a question that?

Because the criticism of monoculture, and I'm going back to like the 50s and 60s really at the height of it, was that it was oppressive. And there was a lack of ability for. individuality and you were all forced to kind of consume the same thing. And what I'm wondering now is, are we realizing like there was also like some comfort in that and there was actually a little stability in that. Yeah, but shit was good. Like, like, that great?

No, it was good. Like, what wasn't great? Friday night lineup in 1987 was probably trash most of the time. But like Miami Vice was monocle. I mean, you could go on and on, right? Like, you know, TGI's Friday's ABC was fire, bro. Perfect strangers. When you mean, shit was good.

Family matters, full house. What are we talking about? Some of it was good. But do you mean shit was good, like economically, or do you mean shit was good? It was good content-wise. It's the shit we still spoofing that. What was-yo, Golden Girls? You said NBC's...

I just made some shit around. That's what I'm saying? Golden Girls fire. This is the same thing as dating. Where it's like scarcity makes shit feel good. Nah, bro. There's a lot of trash. Let me get the argument out.

It's like, when you scroll Netflix for 40s, five minutes before you choose something. It's the, what is it? And that paralysis by analysis or whatever, that's saying is, right? So the same thing with dating now. It's like you have an infinite amount of women that are a swipe away on your phone. And you can't find nobody. Because there's

not the scarcity. When you grew up in a small town or amongst corner South Carolina with 8,000 people dirt roads, you had the girls that went to your school, the school in the next town, the school in the next town. You knew all the girls that were more or less in your age. Put it more for it, yeah. So it's like, you knew what

was available. So if you got to find one, you're like, oh, thank God, I got one. Everybody else was like, all right, what's left? But it always felt like it was mad, but right? I guess I don't understand your argument when it comes to the stuff back in the day, because what wasn't good? I mean, there's plenty of shows that weren't good.

I guess the point that... But the shit that's the test of time is what we watch. I think what point is Chris is trying to say is that, while things might not have been as good, the connectivity, the human instinct for connectivity, the thing that we all need at our core. Like, what are men complaining about right now all the time?

The male loneliness epidemic. It's like it's never been easier in the history of humanity to connect with people and men are feeling incredibly lonely. I imagine they felt lonely throughout history, but whatever. The point is we were all connected on certain things, whereas now you feel like you're in your own little bubble. And if you don't go along with what's in your bubble, you're super fucking lonely. You only talk to the people you play Fortnite with.

You might not even have a conversation with a human being. So I think what we're missing for monoculture, whereas. we might not have the diversity of thought, right? We might not have the democratization of information, meaning we don't know the true story of what happened during the Civil War, the true story about the Native Americans, or the true about what really happened.

What we gained was we all feel like we know what happens, and we're all connected in that feeling. I respect that. I think monoculture, to me, is the true test of what's good, though. And what I mean by that is when you're able to take the majority of Americans are a large swath of Americans,

It's black, white, no matter the race, no matter the agenda. And a bunch of people gather around to say, this is what we're watching every week. That's why those shows were classic and stood the test of time. That's why they had multiple seasons. That's why we remember them to this day. Yo, shit like saying elsewhere. There wasn't shit to watch, but it was good shit. But it's good compared to the four of the shows.

That wasn't good didn't last, bro. It's your mom's cooking, bro. It's good because it's what you've known. No. It's not good because it's good. Okay, let me ask you a question. Name, let's just, pick a year. Pick a year from that era. 1983.

Look it up. Look up the top rated shows for 1983. Mash. Mash was fire. Mash was fire. What are we talking about? Is Ash better than Sopranos? Different type of show.

Different type of show. Is match better than friends? Yes. Yes. Is Match better than the office? No. Oh, nah, no. It's match better than Seinfeld.

What's your name is? You gotta stop. You're naming other monoculture shows. Like, you're not, you're naming other classic monoculture show. Is mass better than- Oh my God, come on. Herve your enthusiasm. It's not. Monoculture, bro. Listen. Herve ain't monoculture anymore. Yo, Shult, come on, bro. Dallas. Dallas and-J-R. U.N. in the game. Come on, stop. Stop. Magnum P.I. was fire.

Dynasty, bro. The A-Team team, bro. Eighteen. Mid. Simon and Simon. Mid. Simon. I don't remember.

I don't remember Simon and Simon. I don't remember. Magnet, I was Simon. Magnet. Fire. Falcon Cress, fire. Don't know it. What?

Soap opera. Cain Nile. Reading Rainbow. Banger. Bangor. Oh, I know that. Yeah. The main master of the universe.

Bangor. Fire. Man, what was Caitlin and Ali? It was good, too. Really? Yep. With all the-Hagney and Lacey, all these classes. Tagney and Lacey, fire.

Fire. Stop. Fire, yo. These are all-time classic shows that in this era you can't find too much that's better than. Hill Street Blues isn't on that. Oh, my God. Hill Street Blues. I'm not saying shows can't be good back in the day.

You remember when Cool G. Rap did Ill Street Blues? Yes. I'm not saying shows can't be good back in the day. Hill Street Blues. But in the same way that, like, when you watch players dribble a basketball in the 80s versus players, ribble of basketball now, you see the things have...

Exactly. So what I'm trying to say is... That's not fair, guys. Okay, I understand certain technological advancements exist, and rules change. But curb was monoculture. Say again? Curb was monoculture.

Only in the beginning. And barely. Again. The new iteration of Curb was more this era. Here's a hot take. There's a hot take. Any HBO show? Not any, but almost every HBO show is Namo.

Very few people watch the wire. The wire was not monoculture. Imperatively speaking. People went back to watch the wire. Girls, girls, not monoculture. Supranos. People in L.A. watched it and people in New York watched it and they wrote about it. When New York and L.A. likes a show, we think it's the biggest show in the world.

In the middle of the country, they're watching Jack Reacher. They're not watching a shit. Game of Thrones monoculture. That was monoculture. Stranger Things Towards This End. Monoculture. I think for anything's was monoculture the whole way. through.

Only because it was so generational. Like, my daughter, my oldest daughter, and my wife love strangers. It was, I think, especially the last few seasons, it got crazy. But, like, again, this is the type of thing where, like, now I guess what I would say is because there's more, it's harder to cut through. Back in the day, there was less. So when something did cut through, everybody was on it. So, like, there's a show right now I'm watching on Apple called Widows Bay.

You guys heard of that show? No. Show is fire. I don't know. if this would be monoculture, but like it's almost impossible for a show like this to completely cut through, given the amount of competition in the space. You know the other difference

too? No appointment viewing. 100%. When you got appointment viewing, it's easier to make things monoculture when Thursday at 8 o'clock the Cosby show was on or 8.30 Martin or Sunday nights. Sunday nights, you got to be there. But wait for it. And why is that? Because you're having a communal experience

and you know when you come to school or work the next day, that's what people are going to want talk to talk about the water cooler or they're going to want to talk about on lunch. So if you miss it, you're left out of the communal experience. We're dying for this communal experience. We think we have it because we have social media following and people commenting on our pictures. But in the depths of our brain, we know we don't actually have it.

Yeah, people like to blame Elon Musk for, you know, Twitter going off the rails. And he definitely should get a lot of blame. But I also blame the lack of appointment television. The lack of appointment television is also what made. X go off the race. Do you remember when MTV Guy Code episodes would come out? Oh my God.

It was on fire. On fire. It was only on social media app. And TV shows back because it was still monoculture, so we were still watching such and such TV show. You can't tap into that with sports. Sports is the only thing. The next run.

That's the only, and I'm not even on Twitter, but sports is. Or debate, presidential debate. See, I don't like that. Like, those are the things I don't want. I want appointment television, things that make us escape, things that cause us to get us. online and just talk shit. It's so much fun. Yes, 100%. And like, you're right, the appointment viewing when we were all had to submit to watching something at the same time or experiencing

at the same time. And we want to share that experience with our friends at the same time. It's why, to be honest, going to the movie theater when a movie is good and seeing people cheer, seeing people get up, seeing people to be excited or get scared. It's a nice fucking feeling. Movie theater is a back, baby. In a real way. In a real way. You know what? I didn't, I didn't realize that Street Fighter was looked at as a staple in hip-hop. Interesting. Tell me how. I didn't know.

I know what that, because video games to me... Are you referring to the song that's being used in it? Oh, I haven't even heard the song. I haven't ever heard the song. The Pock remix? Oh, I didn't know that. Pock did a song for, it's, I'm a street fighter. You don't want to fuck with...

No, that's an ambitious. as a writer. Yeah, but it was remix for Mike Tyson. So they got the rights to the Mike Tyson remix and putting it in the movie. Oh, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. But, you know, of course, we know video games and hip-hop have been

synonymous with each other. But for whatever reason, people feel like Street Fighter had a lot of success because of the hip-hop community. Yeah. I mean, as a video game, you're saying?

I'm trying to think. I mean, Street Fighter was transformational in terms of, and I'm not just saying this got part of the movie. It was like the first fighting game. It was before Mortal Kombat? Yeah. Before all of them, before Tekken, before everything. It was the first.

Before Tekken? Yeah, you're at the arcade playing a street fighter. Yeah, no, I remember. You know, so it's so funny. Once again, monoculture, there was a girl that we used to tease in school, and I would call her Blanca. I would call her Blanca. She came to school in one bad head day,

and she had her shit back, and I was like, Blanca! And that shit stuck with her all through high school. That's fucking monoculture. You guys think that this crossed my mind this weekend, actually. No, it is, because when I say the reference, everybody laughed. Everybody knew. I thought you were saying, like, you make them, okay.

So did you want, oh, shit, Blanca! Everybody laughs. Could physical arcades with actual machines make a comeback? Yo, I'll be honest, bro. Yeah. At this point, no. Nothing surprised me anymore. Think about it.

You're getting people in the same space, which is what people want. It's a kind of commute. It's individual, but it's also a communal experience. Now, you've got to feed money to play a video game, which I think for kids who've grown up with this thing would feel very strange. But I'm like, video game I mean you want to talk about

Mono Miss Pac-Man Pac-Man They ran the fucking country in the 80s Chris I know colleges that have the movie theaters Right And the kids are going there

With their PlayStation And their Xbox And hook it up to the big ass movie theaters And they be in there All day playing fucking video game Yeah

So yes I don't know What about going and playing An action You're playing Centipia Now I think it would have to be Something structured Around systems

As opposed to like The big arcade games thing, right. Yeah, I'm doing that. I'm getting, for nostalgia purposes, because they're cheap. Those arcade games are not expensive. Not expensive.

I'm getting, I won a couple of those at the house. The most expensive thing is the, and it's not even expensive anymore because you can get shitty material, but it's the build of it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because now a video game is in a little carchards. That's right. That's right.

salute to a different world. We have all these conversations about a different world. You know, different world is coming back out on Netflix. I forgot the date of when different world starts on Netflix,

but I know it's in the fall. They just put out the trailer yesterday. But, man, I am proud to announce that my book in print, Black Privile, is publishing. is publishing the memoir of none other than Mrs. Jasmine Guy. Her book, A Different Girl, co-written with her daughter, Amani Guy Duckett,

will be out February 9th, but it is available for pre-order everywhere you buy books now. Man, Jasmine has such an incredible, incredible story, man, and she's always been, you know, such a private person. But some of my favorite Breakfast Club interviews are with Jasmine Guy. So it is a real privilege and honor, you know, to get her to sit down with her daughter, Amani and write a memoir. So go pre-order that now. February 9th, it'll be in bookstores everywhere, okay?

A different girl from Jasmine Guy. Now, what else we got, Shotty? Rest in peace to Hayden Penetare, and I say it right now? That's crazy. If you're going to say rest of peace to somebody, you should at least know their last name, Taylor. I mean, that was wild. I mean, that was quick. No, you're not talking.

But that's, I wouldn't have said it. I would, that was crazy. Why not? Because I don't know her last name. I didn't know if I was pronouncing it right. I knew it was like how it's, I'm being up. You gave up in the middle of it. No, I didn't.

Yes, you did. I said the whole thing. I said, no, I didn't. That's crazy. Regardless, it's not about this. Don't do that. What happened to her? She started.

They said it was an overdose? I don't. I think they're hesitant to review. Yeah, but their thing was like that. They said it on the 911 call. I mean, her memoir came out. and I remember watching her on Jay Shetty. Well, I saw the trailer for it on Jay Shetty.

And then it made me just, you know, go look and see what the memoir was about. The memoir was literally about her lifelong struggle with alcohol and opioid addiction. And she had a lot of mental health issues and a lot of trauma. So, I mean, she was open about that, you know? And then I think I saw something where she was telling a story about... Let her go from doing postpartum. Oh, yeah, postpartum. She talked about having postpartum.

But I also saw some... something. Look this up, Taylor. She told a story about she was about to out some famous A-less actor. Oh, yeah. On a yacht. And she was like young. How old was she like in her teenage years or something like that? I don't know. And she was about to tell on the person. I realized that I was in danger. But by the time I'd realized I was in danger, I was quite literally out to see. And, um, and it was, it was, it was. that moment, I mean, that moment shook me and was shocking. And I was quite literally put, walked it down. And I had been having a great time. There was no hints of anything like that

happening. So it took me, I was, I was shocked. It took me by surprise. And it was somebody led by somebody that I had grown to trust and see as a protector and somebody who had my back and to be walked down, you know, down the stairs. And it was, it was like a surprise, presented as though it was like a surprise. And it was this very small room and she physically put me in the bed next to this undressed man who was very famous. and had his hands like this.

Like this was just, you know, an average day for him. This is something that happens all the time. And I waited for her to leave. And I mean that line in me, that fire in me, that my hair stood on end, and I became ferocious. I was like, this is not happening. but I had nowhere to hide. And I bolted, and I hid wherever I could think of to hide on a boat.

On a boat. There was no jumping off and swimming away, and there was nobody who was going to, I realized that there was nobody who was going to be empathetic to my situation, that this was nothing new to them. What do you think? It wouldn't surprise me. What wouldn't surprise you?

This poor young girl was, you know, putting a compromising position on... Oh, no, no, I completely believe that. I'm just saying, you know, how the internet does, internet. Well, the internet's going to make it be like they kill their... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Which I don't know if that makes sense. But, like, I could totally see a young girl like her. It's like, I don't know if she was a childhood star, but, like, young and in entertainment

business being just, like, you know, put through the fucking ringer by monsters. It's that 36 years old, you pass away at 136 years old. you pass away at 36 years old. And you got a kid. Yeah. Oh, she had a kid? Oh, man. Vladimir Klitsko.

Somebody told me that yesterday. Yeah, they was like, Fox. He gave the kid a lawyer to let him have full custody. Really? God damn, man. Rest and peace to her, man.

What else we got, Taylor gang? Did y'all see the Ray J in Orlando fight? Orlando Brown. Who won? Ray J. Ray J. So is he okay?

Is he going to live? Yeah, he's nice. Yeah. I'm wondering about that. I was wondering about that, right? Because, you know, Clarissa Shields fought this weekend, and rightfully so, it felt like,

well, I think it's too, it felt like everybody was awesome, like, oh, shit. I think a lot of people who didn't know realize, like, you know, Clarissa's really a star. That's surprising. But she's a, because she's a sports star,

but people see her so much on social media. That they get, like, they think she's just, some influencer. You know what I mean? They don't think that she's as good as she is. She's a generational talent. It's not even close.

She's a, because Clarissa shills. She's saying they don't think that she's. I don't even think they knew she was a boxer, really. Oh. I really don't. I think a lot of people thought that she was just an influencer because they've been seeing her over the last couple of years. And a lot of times, Clarissa fights on off nights.

Like she fights on like a Sunday, right? this was the first time that I can remember in a long time where she fought on a Saturday night. What network was it on? It was on the zone. But she had DeRajé and Orlando on the undercard because it was like the zone and the Zeus network. And I think it was such a spectacle

because she did it in Atlanta. She usually fights in Detroit but she was in Atlanta. A lot of stars were there. Floyd Mayweather was there. Terrence Crawford was there. She called Stevenson was there. Rodway was there. Usher was there. You know what I mean? Like it was a lot of star Lido walked her out to the ring. There was a lot of star power in the building,

and she had, I think, a stoppage in the sixth round, I believe. Man, she caught this girl beautifully. Crazy. But I think, what the fuck was that? I think that for whatever reason on Saturday night, people realized, oh, she's really a star. Yeah. Like, you really have to do things.

Some people aren't famous just for being famous. If you're famous just for being famous, it doesn't last long. She's the first black. woman or first woman in general to sell out a stadium boxing student. Is that true? I don't know if that's true. Is that true?

As a boxer, that's me as a boxer. Is that true? I don't know if that's true or not. I don't know. Who else did it? Maybe. Did Lail Ali do it? I really have no idea.

And I saw something, she's the first of something. How do you feel about her being on this card where you have influences on it? I feel like it cheapens the boxing. Yeah. Well, that's kind of what I was getting at. Oh, okay. Listen, say what you want. about Jake Paul.

Jake Paul may be an influencer, but when it comes to boxing, Jake Paul promotes real fights. The whole card top to bottom is real fights. Women boxers fighting women boxers. Yeah, but wasn't Ray J. on this card? But that's my point. This ain't Jake Paul.

Oh, this is not. No, no. I'm giving Jake Paul props. Got you, gotcha. Those are the type of cards that Clarissa should be headlined. Ah, because Jake has Serrano, right? Jake got Serrano.

Listen, I like what Win Promotions is doing, but yeah, I do feel like the full card should be boxing. It shouldn't be spectacle. You know what I mean? Because you don't want Clarista Shields being lumped in with that. Yeah. Because like I said, there's a lot of people I feel like just are now realizing she's a legitimate boxing superstar. This is a two-time Olympic gold medalist. And you think by her being on the card, it makes her look like an influence.

wants her boxing. Well, for those who don't know, I'm a boxing fan, so I've been watching Larissa Shields forever. I know she's a 21-time world champion. Right. You understand what I'm saying? Like, I watched her documentary

a decade ago, T-Rex on Netflix. Yeah. She had a movie about her life guys that came out in theaters called A Fire Inside. Great movie, too, by the way. Like, she's a legitimate star. Yeah.

By every metric. Do you think she has to get off the internet then? She got, like, people love seeing her personality? Yeah. but she... That helps. I think it's helped tremendously.

In a way, though, because you just say people see her as influential. Yeah, but they're watching that fight because they want to see what it is that she does. But there's a lot of people who have been introduced to Clarissa the last couple of years on the internet, and they're like, man, who is this girl that has always got something to say, but also people are always talking about her.

You know what I mean? So they want to see what she's really about. And don't get it fucked up. It's the same thing with Floyd Mayweather. they're watching Clarissa hoping she lose too now oh really is she that polarizing i think so i think so i root for her all the time but there's some people that want to get in the they want to see her get in the ring and they they want to see everybody humbled it's corny it's the the unfortunate thing about boxing but also most sports but definitely boxing and fighting

is that it people don't watch just to see the best person do it they watch because there's connectivity to the fighter and they'll often pay much to watch a fighter who is maybe less skilled just because of how connected they feel to them. And so you've got to find a way to create that connectivity. And Clarissa's done it. She's done it through social media. She's absolutely positively done it. And I'm telling you, she's so confident.

I would never use the word cocky for Clarissa Shields. She's confident in her abilities. She's confident in her skill set. And you should be to where people are like, Nah, I want to see her lose, yo. I want to see somebody beat her, yo. You know, you have a point, though, because I watched this fight fully, and I was like, this is the first time I ever seen her fight.

See what I'm saying? I knew she was a boxer, though, but I'm just saying I never seen her really fight. Because it was on a Saturday night. Everybody was home, and there was no other sports on you watching the fight. Like, she usually fights on off night. Still fight on, like, a Sunday or something. I've seen a Curtis will fight during the week. It's like, nah, like Saturday night is fight night, baby.

That's when you want to see a good fight. Shout out to Clarissa. What else we got, Taylor again? Do they do the all-women boxing then? They don't put it on Saturday night? No, they don't put it on Fridays and Saturdays. I mean, like I said, Jake Paul has done a phenomenal job. Jake Paul had his fucking, he had Amanda Serrano fight on the undercarter Tyson Paul.

Like, come on. They threw the whole bathroom in there to stop that fight. Yeah. Did you see that? That's never talking about it. I've never seen that. Usually you wave a little towel. Clarissa's at the point now

I think she can do pay-per-view. For sure. But why? Just build it up on the publicly accessed fights. She 19 and no, she's a 21-time world champion. I'm not saying that she doesn't deserve it based on her skill. My point is, like, get in front of more people. Like, get in front of as many people as possible.

She's doing it now. That's great. You don't think, I mean, I think at this point, people will pay for her Clarissa Shields fight. Yeah, I'm sure they will, but, like, People always watch more shit for free than they will pay for. Oh, 100%. So it's like...

That's how you create a model coach. To your HBO point. I didn't think about it until you said it, but yeah, to your HBO point, it's like, you know, that's a paid cable subscription. People are paid, you know, people don't want to pay for good shit. They much rather be having it be on regular TV. What else we got, Taylor Kang Gang? I don't know.

Damn, she fucked her up, though. There's some gay stuff for you You know We're never upset of that Why Taylor Taylor why Dollar tree That she just dissolved in my ass like cotton candy

You know what Dollar tree Where the fuck the tissue go Huh? What's these long That shit all over my hand Telly, you gotta give context. You can't just be playing.

This guy wanted to talk about toilet. Why is this gay? It's dissolved in his ass. But like cotton candy, like, I never put that in my ass, man. I didn't know that that dissolved. Maybe he ate something that had a little acidic in it. And maybe that's what it was. Maybe that's what it was.

Maybe he ate something that had a little acidic acid in it. Toilet paper from Dollar Tree, that she just dissolved in my assholes it up. I don't know who is. I think his assholes it up. What the fuck the tissue go? Taylor just be high, man. What are you talking about? It is not highness.

It just me like, oh, this is something that they can make fun of with ass. Why does he think it dissolved? Because he can't find it. Let's do some asking idiots, Taylor. This is crazy. Wait, wait, wait, one more. Okay, what do we do. Someone, um, the police.

Miss took a man's hemorrhoids for a hidden contraband. Nah. That's a hamroid. That's a hell of a hallow. The man subsequently sued the police department and was awarded $1 million in damages. The incident started when the man, Contingham, was walking on the street with a bottle of alcohol. Someone called police and said he looked suspicious. Officers quickly found him and asked to search him.

At first, Cuntingham cooperated. But when the officer's hand got close to his backside, Cuntingham suddenly became nervous and tried to stop him. The officer believed that reaction meant he was hiding something illegal. Then the officer felt a hard object. Contingham started screaming and resisting, but the officer became even more sure he had found contraband. The more Contingham yelled, the harder the officer searched. For nearly three minutes, the officer kept digging at what he thought was hidden evidence. It was not contraband.

That's AI. I'm like, Taylor. Taylor. The way they got disneyed angles of the whole situation. Taylor. Teller. Teller. Teller, why are you wasting valuable, valuable part-time with shit like this?

Then you have me going. I'm sitting there thinking like, what the fuck, Taylor? Taylor, it can happen, okay? Two and five Canadians will hear the words, you have cancer.

All right, let's do some asking idiots, gang, gang. Hold on. One more thing. What you got to do? Do you like to answer to this? Salomey to God came with an AI article to try to shift the... Hold on now. Stop, stop. Hold on.

What does it say? Academic Sluat the Act, man. Sluat the big fucking act. It says, academic says nobody cares that Shalameen was using AI. using AI for? The news thing. I'm hearing. So nobody cares that Charlemagne the God came with an AI article to try to shift up the discussion and blatantly

lied and tried to just capture the, you know, the goodwill of the people by trying to say someone's crazy. Now he has nothing more to say on the topic. Now he's talking about what Ray Daniels said. Fuck what Ray Daniels said. Newmo Uno's back here again. What about

the fucking AI shit you brought up against me? Let's get to that interview. Let's get back to that. What AI shit is he talking about? What's the AI? I saw that he thought that you brought up like AI newspaper or not newspaper, sorry, news reports about him. AI news reports about him.

Oh, yeah, they'd be spamming the fuck out of me with that shit. He's talking about inverse wire.com. Like, act, you're smarter than that, my brother. Like inverse, inverse wire.com is a what do they call it? It's called an aggregator site. You know what aggregator site is? No. Yeah, yeah. Let me tell you guys. Now, see, I like, I like teachable moments. Mediite is another one, right? No, media is not. Mediaite does original stores. Aggregator site is a website that collects information, content, are product listings for many

different sources, and shows them all in one place. Instead of making its own original content, the site organizes data from other web pages so people can compare options easily and common types of aggregator sites are news and articles so there's platforms like i think it's called tech meme they collect and summarize news reports from various publishers so that's what the site inverse wire.com does and so the article that i was citing to academics was originally published on the age of And it was also published on the Sydney Morning Herald and those sites at least the age.com is for sure the age. com is behind the paywall. So I think inverse wire.com takes stories that are from behind paywalls and push them up. And I saw Axe saying how the how the site was taken down. That's probably why it was taking fucking down. You know what I'm saying?

If you're taking paid content, you know, from another site and putting it up on your site, then that's probably one of the reasons they would take it down. But is he trying to say to the article not real? Yeah. Well, that, well, what? That's what the claim. The claim is that I think Rock Nation made some fake article, and they're the ones that are pumping this whole situation.

It's on the Sydney Morning. Act knows this. I've sent Act these articles before. It's on the Sydney Morning Hairs. Harold, the rapper, the crypto billionaire, and the Instagram mystery, man. That was the Sydney Morning Herald. Theage.com. Hold on, the age.com.

You've seen that article. I see quite a few articles, actually. Now, hold on. Let me see. The age.com, because I'm not talking about this shit no more, man. I'm going to be honest with you. Like, hold on. The age.com, the headline for that article was, what the fuck?

The rapper, the crypto billionaire, and Instagram. It's the same story. The age.com and the Sydney Morning Herald both posted that story. And it's up on their sites right now. Matter of fact, put them in the, put them on the screen. Put them on the screen.

Yeah, man. Give back a hug, bro. That's my guy. Yeah, come on, guys. Be friends again. Everybody be friends. Who's not friends? We just, who's not friend?

We just sat down and had a three-hour conversation. Be friends. Everybody be friends. When I saw, when I saw, when I heard that just now, I thought that was AI. I didn't know that was that really talking. I didn't know. I didn't know that was act really talking. Like, that article I read the act is real.

It's on the Sydney morning here. Matter of fact, hold, I'm going to tell you, I do you one better. I'll tell you who wrote the article. I don't even think you need to do that. No, I want to. Kishore Napier dash Ramon. That's who wrote the article on the city. Morning Herald. I don't know anything else.

The Sydney Morning Herald and theAIDS.com. So that's where it was originally published, NverseWire.com took it from there and posted it. I don't, hey, I can't wait to see how you spend this one. I love it. I like hearing. Act is entertaining to me? You know what I'm saying?

I want to see, is he trying to say that the article's not real? It seems that way, but my thing is, He's just upset by how the discussion went, I think, because he's still trying to prove points from the discussion. Here's the thing. Just give him a hug, y'all. As I told act, as I told act, I don't know if these allegations in this article are true, but the article is real. It's on the Sydney Morning Herald and it's in the age.com. That's where it was originally published.

Once again, inverse wire is an aggregator site and they take articles from other places and republish it. So they just ripped it off, basically. Yeah, that's what they do. That's what they're an aggregator site. I don't know what you want to say. Asking idiots.

Let's do it. I got to run to do this ADR. What the fuck is that? It's like when you voiceover things that they didn't get clearly when you filmed. All right. I'm not going to knock out some asking idiots, my boy. Peace.

Peace. Bye, guys. Peace. Um, Anton R. the Jesus Coquoy. At the beginning of y'all's career, did you ever vision the major success you will have? I absolutely did, you know? I tell y'all that all the time.

If you've read any of my books, you know that my first book, Black Privileged Opportunity, comes to those who created. I talk about being in the studio in 1999 in Charleston, South Carolina, Z-93 jams. And that's like at the beginning of the internet. And I'm listening to radio personalities from all over the country. I'm listening to Big Tigger. I'm listening to Big Tigger and freaking Star go at it. I'm listening to Angie Martinez.

I'm listening to Howard Stern. Doug Banks was on in our market in the morning time. John Joyner was on. And all I remember saying to myself was, if I'm going to do this radio thing, I want to be like that. I want to do it at the highest level. I want to be a super jock. I said, I want to be a, that's what I used to call them, super jock.

I want to be a super jock. And you know, that vision has evolved. You didn't see yourself doing anything else? Huh? You didn't see yourself doing anything else? Nah, I mean, radio would end all be off me because I always thought that when radio you can do so many other things. Like I saw radio personalities doing albums.

I saw radio personalities writing books, you know, I just, yeah, and I did see myself doing it. I saw myself writing books. I saw myself writing movie scripts. That wasn't your full-on career, like being a teacher or something. No, radio was definitely my full-on career. 100%. That's all I ever wanted to do.

I started as an intern who I was 18, 19 years old. Oh, wait, no, you're lying. Why? Because you wanted to be a rapper. Bull Winkle, whatever your name was. What? Pizzy Van Winkle. His name wasn't a fucking Bull Winkle.

I was close. Yeah, yeah, actually, it wasn't that much. As a rapper. That much better. As a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, Yeah, they used to want to be a rapper. Listen, when you black and you growing up in a certain environment, the people that you see is successful are usually in rap or sports.

You know what I mean? I don't want my son to be like that. Well, he won't be because he got more options to look at now. Yeah. He got more options. He got more things to see. I mean, by the way, we had more things to see back then, but we weren't paying attention. Like, I grew up in a great era.

And the reason I see I grew up in a great era because I really grew up in the second generation. No, I grew up in the first generation. I'm lying. I grew up in the first generation renaissance of what has become a multi-billion dollar industry, which is called hip-hop. And because of hip-hop, I'm in the position that I'm in there. Because I do hip-hop and R&B radio. I would not be in this position if I wasn't a hip-hop and R&B radio personality.

So, yes, to answer your question, Anton R. DeJesus Coco, yes, I envisioned myself having this major success. Um, listen, the fitness wand says, what is stronger? Consistency are resilience. Ooh. It's kind of the same thing. Um, I don't know, Chris. Just look up the definitions is, well, yeah, I guess so in the sense. Let's look up the definitions.

I don't know if they're the same thing. What's the difference between consistency and resiliency? That's a good question. Yeah. How you spell resiliency? I got it. Consistency is the habit of doing things in a regular way over time. Resilience is the power to bounce back to heal when bad things happen.

I think resilience is more. Consistency keeps your daily routine steady while resilience helps you stand back up after a fail. Right, but the thing that gets in the way of consistency is what are perceived as the obstacle. Maybe they're not fails. Maybe they're smaller obstacles, but, you know, the ability to get past whatever size it is is what allows you to maintain the consistency. Yeah, I think, oh, that's strong. I think resiliency. Yeah.

I think resilience. Because it's about bouncing back. You got to be able to bounce back. It's all about that bounce back. Like, there are some people who have completely let their failure become their whole identity. I hate that. Don't let your failure become your whole identity. Like, you got to just keep it moving.

Like, something don't go right. Something don't go your way. You just got to keep it moving. Don't try to, like, you know, do any revisionist history or change the path. It is what it is. What's next? Like, I think resiliency. But once you're at a certain, you know, level, then it's consistency.

Right. So with Drake, is he resilient or he's consistent? Oh, that's a good one. He's consistent. I just wanted to do one podcast without talking about Drake. I'm sorry. We just do one podcast without talking about Drake. He's been consistent.

He has not had a bounce back. He has not had a failure. We mean he lost the... That's not a failure. He just lost a battle. That's a form of failure that he's bouncing back from. Listen. Like, if you lost something, that's...

He was competitive. Yeah, but it is still a loss. But you did, yeah. But what did he lose? He lost a battle when you guys are going for saying, hey, who's the best rapper right now and the two top guys are going at it? And you lost that.

So now people can say you're not the top guy. And now he's bouncing back from that. But being the top guy is subjective. Yeah, but. Being the top guy is subjective. He's not the top guy in my book. Never has been. He wasn't a lot of people.

I love when the Drake pages clip me saying it. hateful things about Drake. So let me give you one right now. I am a certified grade A, Drake Hater since day one. I should get a fucking medal, okay? I don't hate him, all right? I don't care. I don't give a fuck.

Like, I really don't. You know what I really do like to do? I love pissing off his fans. His fans clip me when I'm saying something good. Last week, I was in here talking about, how I think the whole shit with the 20V1 was overblown. And people were, you know, being a little too hard on them for no reason. And they still clipped it and made it seem like I said something fucked up.

I was like, God, I can't remember that page. What's that name of that page? Is it a rap dial-up or something shit? Saying that you... They took the clip of me saying, why are you barking for the golf girl? Why are you barking for the golf girl? And then they were like, but disused you, Shalerman. And then they showed me sniffing seats.

I don't see the correlation. Okay? The seat I sniffed was Jennifer Lopez. That golf girl is not Jennifer Lopez. That was my whole point, okay? Are you saying golf? What the fuck was it? Golf, whatever the fuck.

Okay? You bark for Jennifer Lopez. I don't give a fuck. I'm asking a simple question. Why? What about the golf girl made you bark? I'm just talking, I'm being pure superficial. That's it.

I'm not saying that she's, you know, if you end it at, you end of that. You know what I'm saying? But I'm just like, why you bark for her? If I saw him in J-Lo's last. barking, I'll be like, I get it. Okay? That's all I was saying. Click that! Drake Clippers!

Click clip Clippers! They exaggerated Jailo's body back in the day, though. That's not hating. They did, though. They made it seem like she had the craziest booty and she didn't. She had to rice and beans. You crazy. I know, you be hating.

No, no, Jay-Lo. Back in the day, J-Lo had it. And that was the- No, I love J-Lo. I'm not saying that. I'm saying, but her body wasn't at it. as volumptuous as making a team. I'm not...

I'm not... About J-Lo after she was already a movie star, where she, like, uh, conformed a little bit more towards the Hollywood standards, but early J-Lo, it was memorable. You were living there.

Very memorable. I'll say this. We don't, we don't appreciate the 90s, early 2000 bodies anymore because of all of this GMO, BBL, performance enhanced booties. You know what I mean? Like, we don't appreciate it. That was that, that was, that was the organic.

That was, great. Yeah, and organically, there was more girls that have lumpedish bodies. J-Lo had it. J-Lo had it. J-Lo was good money. Shout out to J-Lo. I'm not here to objectify in a woman on the podcast. Taylor, I can't believe you would do something like that. I'm not.

I'm just saying it was exaggerated. I don't care if that's later. That's fire. It's all late. By the way, that's monoculture. Jaillo's body is, is, I'm just saying, But I'm just saying I think it was exaggerated. That's all.

I appreciate it. I don't know to tell you to it again. Okay. Mr. Derek Jr. says, what's one thing you look forward to in the next five to ten years? Watching the kids grow, you know, watching the kids continue to grow. It's my favorite thing to do on this planet, man.

There's nothing like it. Shout out to everybody out there with a family. Shout out to everybody out there with kids. You know, there's nothing like watching your... Little ones grow up. It is the most incredible thing in the world. So that's what I'm looking forward to. I'm looking forward to continuing to age gracefully.

And I'm going to continue to watch, you know, my babies come into their own. Yeah, I say something. Taylor, who stops you from saying anything on this podcast? I can't even believe she just fucking has just now. I know, I know. Can I say something? What the fuck are you talking about? Because, anyways.

What? I went to apologize because I, I used to say, like, well, I've been a mom. I still say I've been a mom because I had a dog, but they are not the same. And I apologize for thinking that it was comparing.

Tell you something about women. You've been telling her. They don't listen, but they eventually come back around. Can you just say Charleston? Not as not the issue. I told you you don't give a fuck about that dog. No, that's not what I said.

I told you. I tell you all the time. How much you don't get a fuck about that dog? You don't give a fuck about that dog. I said they're not the thing. the same. You don't even care. You ready to get that dog away. You're ready to sell that dog for parks. Not ever. You're ready to sell that dog for parks. Yes, you are. First of all, first of all, my son, my son and my dog are like best friends. They are. They don't. They, no. My son,

no, he doesn't. My son pets him, kisses him, like. When that dog dies, Pee going to be trying to put batteries in it. Don't get it back. Stop. Stop talking about him like that. You don't care. You're out of control. You're going to bring that dog to the radio station, though. But for what? Exactly. God. Damn. Damn.

Damn. Damn. I'm like, for what though? You don't even try to get him a sitter no more, no nothing. You'd be leaving that dog in the house by itself. When did he have a sitter? That dog used to have a sitter. No, he didn't.

That dog wouldn't have a collar no more. Taylor'd be letting that dog run wild, hoping it run out in the street and get ran over by a fucking back truck. Don't ever say that would never. What else we got to bring him in? I'm going to bring him in this week. Drop off? I'll tell you afterwards. How often do you use?

Oh, okay. Markets 101 says how often do you use AI in daily life for what purpose in which AI? I use chat GPT. I've been, you know what I've been experimenting with on chat GPT? It's about the prompts. See, y'all are letting things like chat GPT do the thinking for you. when you should actually going to chat GPT

and use certain prompts I want to, should I get, I'll give you all a tip I give you all a tip I don't have no problem giving you all a tip I'm gonna tell y'all the kind of questions I ask chat GPT would you like to know yes this is how you get really

good prompts from stuff like I mean this is how you get really good information from chat GPT right okay don't ask chat GPT to be more human. Okay, use these prompts instead. Like, they have a prompt called human expert mode. You tell chat, GPT, you say, answer my question as a real expert with more than 10 years of hands-on experience in this field. Avoid textbook explanations and generic advice. Share real world lessons, common mistakes, practical nuances, insider insights, and examples from actual, actual experience. Then say, my question is. watch the difference

if you want an emotionally intelligent response say I want you to answer this as someone who deeply understands human emotions motivation struggles and personal circumstances speak naturally

explaining your reasoning and respond with empathy nuance and emotional intelligence then say my question no one of y'all ain't doing that y'all just asking this generic ass computer hey what such and such

and it's going to give you a generic ask answer. Have a real conversation with it. You want to do a real life experience simulation? Prompt, imagine you've personally, this is what you say to chat GPT. Imagine you've personally been through this situation. Learn from it and are now sharing your experience with me as a trusted friend who genuinely cares. Give me honest, practical, and human advice based on real world lessons, not robotic theory. Didn't say my question is. But you're, it's still giving robotic theory. Wait you get that. Can you send that? Yeah. But when you have conversations with GigiPT, talk to it like a human.

Yeah. Don't ask it to be more human. But it's still going to be robotic, though. It can get softer. It can get warmer. It can be. It's got too much of our data. My ex-GBT be trying to, like, hey, girl, what's up?

It's weird. See what I'm saying? Have you guys used it for financial advice? No, I do Claude for that. I did that on Claude last night and had me up until like 4 o'clock in the moon. I think Claudeeat. I think Claudeeatjibati. I put my everything I have into Claude and was like

Asked its analysis of my strategy and it was like you got a big problem on your hands And then I was like fuck oh But then I was so my wife was like all right but what was that based on like where they Get the information to say you know your strategy I basically was like I'm afraid that the financial markets are gonna crash sometime in the next three years and can you look at Everything I'm doing and tell me how I could better hedge against that possibility happening.

But you don't take it for a lot, though. You take that information and take it to the financial body. She's like, okay, but what is its analysis based on? I'm like, I'm assuming its analysis is based on like literally every financial article that's been written over the last 70 years. And this is like the aggregate of it. But I don't really know, but that's my assumption.

I saw Rashad from Earnier Leisure. Right. He had Chat GPT, like, design his house. and when he took it to the actual architect the architect was like, yo, this is incredible. I never seen anything like this. I did it for my studios. But you know what the, you're talking to it.

Yes. You actually have information. Same thing with you, Chris. You actually have information. There's people that get on here and just use this to think. I've seen them get on their podcast, type things in and just read it verbat.

I'm just like, yo, bro, that's just not even right. That's wrong. I'm going back and forth in my area prior to like hours. It's insane. Like, we're going to refine what I'm trying to get at. And it's like, it's a back and forth discussion. And I tell you what else has helped a lot with, like, proposals and stuff. Crazy.

I love it. Oh, my God. Like, when I got ideas for proposals, the way it can put it together so quick. I mean, but it's because I'm coming with the information already. It's just putting it together for me. I love it. I bet it's deck in like 10 minutes. They're probably researching you, too, though.

But then I'm also like, damn, this is it for graphic designers. Like, how do you make a living being a graphic designer when you can just go into Claude and be like, all right, on slide one, I wanted to, you know. Yeah. Hey, yep. I get it. And then that's what had me up at 4 o'clock in the morning because I'm like, they're going to be. I mean, my brother-in-law is a guy who's been involved in, you know, tech and building and selling companies for a long time. I trust his opinion.

He really thinks that AI is going to, if not wipe out the job market. Like, it can't wipe it up. It can't. It can't. It's like, he thinks that universal income thing is real. He thinks we're headed towards that. What to do about mass unemployment? This is going to be a massive social challenge. And I think ultimately we will have to have some kind of universal basic income. I don't think we're going to have a choice. There will be fewer and fewer jobs that a robot cannot do better. That's simply the, I don't want to be clear that these, these are not things that I think that I wish would happen. These are simply things that I think probably will happen.

And since if my assessment is correct and they probably will happen, then we need to say, what are we going to do about it? And I think some kind of a universal basic income is going to be necessary. Now, the output of goods and services will be extremely high. So with automation, they will come abundance. There will be, almost everything will get very cheap. Read techno feudalism, what killed capitalism. It talks about all of that in there.

I do think there's going to be a big portion of America that is going to stay home all day, not going to leave the house, you know, because all of this stuff, social media just makes your anxiety and depression even worse. So there's people that's going to stay in the house and they're going to rely off universal basic income. But then you're going to have a whole other group of people that's going to get ultra-filty rich off all this shit. And the textbook the book talks about that. It talks about how even the class. are going to change in the future.

Like, you could be a person with... I think the classes... I don't think there's a middle class anymore, really. Oh, and the middle class is wiped out. But the new middle class is going to be the people that got like five to $10 million. Because if you got $10 million, how are you going to compete in a world of billionaires?

Well, it's... Define competition. What I need to live a comfortable life compared to what a billionaire needs... Conversely, what I think I need and somebody who's making below minimum wages, two different things, too. It's all perspective. Sure, but capitalism is a cannibalistic system. Right.

It's already ate the middle class's ass, right? Yes. There's definitely eight all the porn and disenfranchised people's asses. Whose ass is left to eat? The billionaires. No. Who? It's going to start with the multimillionaires.

Right? The millionaires, multimillionaires, tens of millions. And then that's when you're going to start seeing those folks start complaining. They're like, wait a minute. I'm supposed to be living the American motherfucking dream. Oh, that's happening now. You see what I'm saying? I'm supposed to be living the American motherfucking dream.

But now I'm getting priced out of shit. Now, I don't have access to the things that I want to have access to. There's no security in being a millionaire. So if you're a hundred. So now you've got to be a hundred millionaire, right. Or a billionaire, which is so few and far between. Right. So the next people to get their ass eight is going to be the people that's making the,

the millions, the multi-millions, and the tens of millions. Guaranteed. We don't want to pay for everything now. Not we. I can't even talk about it because I'll sound like a completely entitled maniac. Those people. Yes. That's the bottom of all.

We get those people get taxed crazy already. Which, by the way, I don't mind if I know that those taxes are going to things that I actually care about. I'm just simply saying I'm watching this capitalist system and techno feudalism. techno feudalism is about to take shit to another level. Y'all thought seeing Elon as a trillionaire was one thing, but you're going to have the trillionaires, a bunch more billionaires,

the hundred millionaires, and then everybody fucking else. And then eventually everybody in this country is going to revolt. It's going to be on some eat the rich shit. What Tupac said when he said, if I know that in this hotel room they have food every day and I'm knocked on the door every day

to eat and they tell and they open the door, let me see the party, let me see like they're throwing saline. me all over the, I mean, just like throwing food around, where they're telling me there's no food in here. You know what I'm saying? Every day, I'm standing outside trying to sing my way in. You know what I'm saying? We are hungry, please let us in. We are hungry, please let it send. After about a week, that song is going to change the, we hungry, we need some food. After two, three weeks, it's like, you know, give me hungry food, and wrecking out of

door. After a year, then you're just like, you know what I'm saying, a pick in the lock coming through the door blasting, you know what I'm saying? It's like you hungry. You don't want anymore. We asked 10 years ago. We was asking with the Panthers. We was asking with them, you know, a civil rights movement. We was asking, you know, now those people that were asking, they're all dead and in jail. So now what do you think we're going to do?

And we shouldn't be angry? It's impossible. Unless social media just makes everybody so fucking docile. I think that's more likely. Damn. Everything you're saying is 100% true. I'm watching it in real time. Yeah.

Not even the government tax. I mean, I'm just going through with the whole college thing right now. Is it worth, you know? Yeah, it's worth it. It's worth it. $90,000 a year to send a kid to college? It's worth it.

It depends, right? Because college gives kids or, yeah. You know why it's worth it, Chris? The sense of community. I don't know. I could buy them some friends for $90,000. Yeah, but the thing is, but colleges have changed too now. It's not the same going to college how it was before.

Kids are still on their phone. and like it's nice. I don't see that as much anymore. I think there's a lot of, I think, I think that generation is really disconnected in a real way.

I think adults are more on their phones than them kids, y'all I'm watching it. Like, I'm watching it in real time. I'm watching these kids communicate. That's true. And be around each other. iPads and all that.

What do you mean? Not little kids, like college school kids. They're not using the phone as much. They're back to community, y'all. I'm seeing it. Like, they're back hanging out with each other, playing card games. You know, playing board games, playing video games.

Like, they're back having real life conversation with each other. I think that getting on your phone every day and constantly questioning if something is real is really turning off a lot of people. I really do. All right. 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.
