Starting point is 00:00:54 Herman. Herman. Herman in the flesh, young Herman. I tell you about my name, bro. Young Herman. Young Herman. He's been doing a lot of stuff like this lately. What are you talking about, man? And stuff out. Listen, that's not right. We got to stop doing this. They be making things. You know what it is?
Starting point is 00:01:07 People would be projecting things on folks that I don't even be thinking about. For example. I'm not even saying. It's not good to say, but you could say it. You can talk around it. What? He just says things and not realize who the person is. Huh?
Starting point is 00:01:20 I'll give you an example. Yeah, yeah. I'm confused. We at the TV studio the other day. A woman walks up the stairs. Ah, he's going to hit me. She's out of breath. Right?
Starting point is 00:01:31 Big woman. What do you think Wax says? I don't know. Yo, you need to start working out. You understand. No, no. I said, I say, let me stares get anybody. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:01:43 You all got to get it in. But I just didn't realize who you be talking to when you say things. Because I'm just like a wide range. I think everybody should get the same invite. Wow, why I got to be a wide range in regards to that. She's coming up to sit. But, no, that's the truth, though. I don't be meaning it either.
Starting point is 00:01:58 I just be talking. I got to be, and the way I mean it is not how other people are perceiving it. You know what I mean? That's why, man, I'd just be rather be quiet now. Every time I say something. It costs you.
Starting point is 00:02:10 They don't cause me. It just gets misconstrued. You know what it's almost like, like, oh, my guy, so looks, you look so good. How many months are you? Whoa. And she's not pregnant.
Starting point is 00:02:19 Yeah, that's a big one. That's just, that's insane. That's insane. That's a very, very, very good. I'm not pregnant. Yeah, that's the thing, you just don't say it. That's what you're saying. Yeah, you just don't say, especially with the pregnancy shit.
Starting point is 00:02:29 Like, that's happened to me on a couple shows where, like, I basically was like, yo, I'm going to ask you something and the show is going to go one or two ways after I ask you this question. Yeah. And it's, are you pregnant? And then, thank God the girls have been pregnant. But if not, how do you recover for that? You know the one that gives me a lot now, especially in New York, peace king. And then it's, peace king.
Starting point is 00:02:52 It would be a woman from Harlem. Oh, Lord have mercy. You said, what's good, brethren, to a woman? You can say that. I didn't know. I can't say the brethren. I'm not even great. You can't call a woman brethren.
Starting point is 00:03:08 You just got to be like, yo, what's up? They? Maybe. I think that's the more. That might be the new thing. I think day is just safe. But I don't even know if it's a sexuality, identity thing. It's just that, yo, sometimes the Tim's and the jeans and the hoodie and the hat low, you'd be like.
Starting point is 00:03:26 Oh, it's going down now. It's about to get cold. That's what I'm saying. You ain't going to know what's up. You don't even mean that in body. Like, yo, peace. You just, you know what? But, no, that's what they know what they're doing, right?
Starting point is 00:03:34 No, I don't think they do. If you put on a wetsuit, motherfuckers think you're going swimming. You know what I mean? You know, pee, swimmer? Yeah, like, it's not crazy. My swimmer, my swimmer. You just see it doing a wet suit.
Starting point is 00:03:47 You're assuming he's going in the water, right? I'm not assuming nothing no more. That's the problem. I like assuming, bro. I'm all about assuming. I enjoy assuming. You know what? Assuming.
Starting point is 00:03:58 You know what the best part about assuming when you know you're wrong? Because you don't want to be. Right. It happened to me last night. When this comes out, it'll be two nights ago. And picking up my daughter from cheerleading. It's nighttime. It's nine o'clock. It's a dude in the parking lot. I ain't never seen before.
Starting point is 00:04:12 You know what I'm saying? White dude looks a little capital riotish. Just a tad bit. You know what I mean? So I'm just paying attention. Let me see what's going on. And he's acting strange. Like, because it's nine o'clock at night.
Starting point is 00:04:28 The rest of us are sitting in the car. Why are you just out in the parking lot, bro? You're not smoking a cigarette, and he's kind of pacing and he's looking down in his phone. And then I see him go to his car. My window's tinted so I could eye the whole thing. So I'm watching him. He goes in the car, see him reaching.
Starting point is 00:04:42 I'm like, I ain't the fucking reaching for. You know what I mean? But he pulls out of water. He drinks the water, right? He puts it back. And my mind goes to three different things. Shooter. Taking kids.
Starting point is 00:04:55 Sex trafficker. Yeah. This is my mind went, right? And then I'm just like, just, a guy that, you know, maybe homeless, that just wandering lost his way, right? But he got a car. So I'm like, okay, he went in the car.
Starting point is 00:05:06 Can I ask a question? Yes. Is it that far out of the realm of possibility that he's just an active father? That's exactly what he was. That's exactly what he was. That's exactly what he was. You just couldn't believe.
Starting point is 00:05:22 That's exactly what he was. It wants to be there for their kids. And by the way, I might look suspicious to him. Yeah, yeah. I probably looks suspicious and shit. Especially being probably like one of the only black guys there. You know what I mean? Like, what are he doing here?
Starting point is 00:05:32 Yeah. And immediately his daughter was the first daughter that came out. And she opened the door, saw him, and it was like a commercial like, Dad! You know, he's like, oh, you know what I'm saying? Oh, you know what I'm saying? It's his visitation time. She was too happy to see her if she sees him all the time. You know what I'm like?
Starting point is 00:05:53 And the way he was, he was out the car waiting on her. Yeah, yeah. And I felt, but it was a sigh of relief. Yeah. And then it was immediate guilt. Because you judged that person. I judged that person. You do people how to do me.
Starting point is 00:06:08 All right. I'm assuming. That's racism. Yeah. You know what happened to that? Negative assumptions based on race. It's something to that. It's something to that. I don't know if, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:16 Yeah. It's got to be. I wouldn't call it racism. Some type of bigotry. Is it bigotry? I don't know if it's racism or bigotry. It's profiling. You profile us whites.
Starting point is 00:06:26 I profile us whites. You profile us whites. What was your neighbor? racist when I called the cops on me? Definitely. But then I don't know because then me and him had great conversation. I can understand him calling the cops on you. Well, you guys have a lot in common.
Starting point is 00:06:41 You guys see things and immediately assume that they're... No, I can understand. Even though I was mad at dude and he shouldn't have assumed like that, but he never seen something like wax in this neighborhood. Like wax ain't normal. You know what I mean? You see somebody like wax broad daylight,
Starting point is 00:06:57 like taking license plates off of Mercedes. 80s bins, might be past this. Is that what you were doing? Literally. It's changing my plate size. I just got it from the DMV. Yeah, you look crazy, doing it. You look very suspicious.
Starting point is 00:07:09 You look absolutely crazy doing that. Very suspicious, very suspicious. But what I didn't like was when the guy came, was when they put wax in handcuffs, when the guy came out the house, he was like, I knew it. What did he have? A gun, drugs. Yeah, he was like, and the cop was like, no.
Starting point is 00:07:25 It's a war. He's out of this place. Oh. But you know what you know was really crazy? The cop looked me out because I had herbs on me. He just grabbed it and just like crush it up. And I got like, damn, you had it crush it up. Just lay it there.
Starting point is 00:07:38 He was like, word. And I was like, take me. And he was out of house. You know what I mean? He was out about an hour. Yeah, right out. It was like, they let us right out. We made it to where we was going.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Yeah, we still had a venue to do with it. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But me and my neighbor had a cold wall for months. Really? Oh, staring at each other in the backyard. And my wife and the neighbor was cool and my daughter was cool and his daughter. But just you and him?
Starting point is 00:08:01 Nope. So then how'd you break that? Radio. Because somehow or another, he found out I was in radio and he was looking one day and he goes, hey, man, I just want to apologize, you know, for, you know, what happened, you know, a couple months ago, whatever, whatever. And he was like, do you know Jim Kerr? I was like, yeah, I know Jim Kerr.
Starting point is 00:08:21 See Jim Kerr? He said, man, I love Jim Kerr. Jim Kerr is a morning show guy on Q104. I literally see Jim Kerr every day of my life, but damn near the past 11 years. Yeah, you know? And he just was a big fan of Jim Kerr. And it was like, that's how we ended up. And that's good of you to accept his apology.
Starting point is 00:08:36 What I'm going to do? I'm the type of person. I have no problem apologizing. I have no problem accepting your apology. You know what I mean? Because I always, and I'm really much better at that now than I was. I try to see things from the other person's perspective. Because I don't think things are malicious sometimes.
Starting point is 00:08:51 I don't think he was being malicious by calling the cops on web. Yeah. But what he doesn't understand is that could have turned into a violent situation. Yeah. Just because of how cops react to black people. And I'm always dirty, especially when that time. Yeah. Definitely always dirty.
Starting point is 00:09:07 And I was dirty. Look me out. It's like, they're looking. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I mean, you were doing something that was absolutely crazy to do. Not really. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:15 His house. I get it, though. Who changes their own license plate of their friend's house? Hey, I'm coming over to do what? Change my license plate. I just came from the DMV. Doesn't matter where you came from. I had to get the paper tag off to my shit.
Starting point is 00:09:26 It looks crazy. Thank you, Anthony. Admit it looks crazy. Okay, if you did it, what have you changed was changing your license plate? I make everyone comfortable. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:36 Be honest. I walk in a room, everyone's comfortable. If I walk in a room. Until I start speaking. And that shit gets uncomfortable real quick. This motherfucker.
Starting point is 00:09:46 Yeah. One thing I noticed about wax, though, a lot of these guys is you want to feel on wax. Really? Yeah, yeah. Oh, you're big. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:09:52 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, what's you do to work out? Why can't we do that with women? I've seen it. I've cheated. Remember those times the cops stopped us in Hacken sack? They stopped us in Hagenstack. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:04 And they searched us. That whole week that was all fucked. That whole week. So when I got the bins out here. I brought the bins out and he kept getting locked up. Yeah, why is it okay to touch a dude and like compliment them? I seen the cop grab wax, peeled behind wax and reached around and was like, what's this? Yo.
Starting point is 00:10:18 And Wax was like, what you mean was that? You know what that he waxed. No, stop it. He went like this is my blade and he took it. Did he take it? Whoa. I don't know. Tell me how you get out to ticket.
Starting point is 00:10:29 You got it. Damn. Did he take it or you gave it to him? Did you take it how he gave it to him? Did he take it or you gave it to him? He took my shit and gave you yours back. What you mean? We both had something on this.
Starting point is 00:10:43 He gave you your shit back. He didn't give me mine back. He kept it. He kept yours? Yes. He was like, yo, he's a nice. No, no, no. He gave you mind back and said, you do.
Starting point is 00:10:49 That's right. Because he was like, why you got this knife? And Wax said, because. I said, look at me. Yeah, nobody's coming at me for a fair fight. That's right. And he said, no, waxed, waxed it. I can't carry a gun.
Starting point is 00:10:59 He's like, it's illegal in Jersey to carry a gun. So I got to have something because I know anybody going to try to fight me. I said, ain't nobody going to try to fight me. He said, you know what? I'm going to try to fight you either. He gave him the knife back. That's pretty cool. He kept him brass knife.
Starting point is 00:11:09 I mean, it's not illegal to have a knife, though, right? Or is it illegal? I don't know. I don't know. That's a good question. But he kept your knuckles. Because those are illegal. He definitely kept the neck.
Starting point is 00:11:19 They're using them shit. He put them on and everything. He's like, oh, yeah, this one is mine. The moral of the story is don't assume, guys. Okay, don't assume. Just like Nila. It's impossible not to, but you got to really check your, I don't even know if it's biases.
Starting point is 00:11:34 It's got to be biases, right? Is that what you call it? Hold on, you're about to roast Naila, and I was really looking forward to it. Oh, no, just because it was a concert in New York this week, and it was Jasmine Sullivan and Mary J. Blige, and Nila was like, yeah, and Ariefer Franklin. That's what she said.
Starting point is 00:11:50 No, she said Patty Bell first. She said Patty LeBelle. She was like, no, not Patty LeBletge. What's the other one? Arefa Franklin? She's a gospel artist. Why would she be there? What do you know about
Starting point is 00:12:02 the Reef of Franklin? Yeah, yeah. You know she's passed away, right? But you know she passed away, right? Oh, that's what she saw? Do you know RIP? Do you know she passed away? Aretha Franklin.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Nila had no idea and Riva Franklin passed away. Okay, fine. All right. All right. Okay, fine. Why do you always make fun of her outfits? Who, Nail?
Starting point is 00:12:28 Yeah. Nile would be clean. Come on, Nila. I think she's so stylish. Nile is so stylish. I think she's super stylish, dude. She's so stylish. She's doing that because she wants to blend in because the homeless people are crazy in New York.
Starting point is 00:12:39 Right. No, no, no, no, no, for real. No, for real. The homeless people are crazy in New York and, you know, they're trying to survive just like everybody else. And so Nile is blending in. Why you took the coat off? The coat is the whole thing. Big Nile!
Starting point is 00:12:54 Big Nile! Big Nile! N-Y-L-A. She made that scarf herself. Wow. You know what I'm saying? She made those jeans. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:13:05 She didn't make those jeans. She did make her own jeans. She made those jeans. You kill her. You got Malcolm X on your shirt. Malcolm X on your wrist. You know what I mean? Natural, big natural hair.
Starting point is 00:13:18 You know what I mean? Yo, you know what I was going to say? I, I need to come back to me. You don't know, and I still don't have them. You don't need comebacks. Nile, you good. We're complimenting. That's my niece.
Starting point is 00:13:31 Just giving my niece some shit. That's all. I think she is the best style. Niley is fly. Everybody loves Nila style. They love Nila style so much that they didn't want to give her no wardrobe at the gods on. I'm not making this up. Tye was like, why does Nile need wardrobe?
Starting point is 00:13:46 Nile would be fly. I think that was just a bunch of shit if you asked me. I think they just told you that to make you feel better about yourself. If I'm being honest, but you know, who am I to argue? You know what I mean? But I've been wearing my, I've been wearing my. I've been wearing my black, blessed, and highly favored shirt. What do people say about that when they see you with it on?
Starting point is 00:14:09 They assume a lot of things, bro. They assume I'm not black, blessing, highly favored. And it's fucked up, you know? Like, ally. Real time. They'd be like allies. Yo, is that Sean King? No, it's a great shirt to wear.
Starting point is 00:14:26 I was supposed to bring it to here to wear because I got the backpack. You sent the... Oh, you got it? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was good. Thank you, man. Let's do some positively brilliant, what a fucking idiot. What did you see this week that made you say positively brilliant?
Starting point is 00:14:39 What a fucking idiot, Shultz. We want to do what a fucking idiot? Or do we want to do positively? Whatever you want to do. What a fucking idiot? The Philadelphia 76ers. Ooh, talk to me. I like this.
Starting point is 00:14:50 They're destroying the trade value of their player. If you hate Ben Simmons, why? Smart. All you did say show videos of how amazing he is. But out statistics of how incredible his defense is. Show videos about how he's actually worked on his jump shot over the summer. He's going to be great. You're trying to move the player.
Starting point is 00:15:09 But you have the coach, the other players and the organization kind of condemning him. Who the fuck's going to want him now, you idiots? You're contractually obligated to this guy. So you lie about him. Build up his fucking trade value. Say what a great teammate he is. Say what a great guy he is. Say what a great person he is.
Starting point is 00:15:25 An ambassador for the city. Trade his ass. And then you never got to do with anything. They need to get a used car salesman. to get him right. Yes. That's all they do. All those cars fucking...
Starting point is 00:15:34 They sell garbage. Yes. But you guys sell it. Son, imagine you out there as you used cars saying, listen, this is a fucking bucket right here. This is... Nothing works.
Starting point is 00:15:44 The shit don't even drive. I don't know why anyone want. That's what they're doing. What the fuck is wrong with you? I agree with both of y'all, but I don't know anything about how the NBA does its trades and shit. So I wonder if that hinders teams
Starting point is 00:15:54 in the future, if they lie about... Yeah, they ain't fucking with him no more. What they'll do is, what they'll do is that if they want to trade somebody? Let's say it's like a bummer. team that wants to trade someone, they just give him mad minutes and let him take a bunch of shots. So they tell, yo, run a bunch of plays for him. Let him throw up fucking 20, 30 points. And then everybody goes, oh my God, we need this guy on a team. We have to. And then once you get him
Starting point is 00:16:13 out of here, now you're good to go. But you're locked to this motherfucker. I think he is four years, right? He's a max. Max rookie deal. Max, so it's a four-year deal, right? I think. I'm not sure. Anyway, I mean, to me, it's just like baffling to see it. Like, they're leaking pictures and images of him playing Yeah, I didn't understand that. I didn't understand that. I didn't understand that, especially when they leaked that picture, he had the phone in his pocket.
Starting point is 00:16:36 Then the very next day, they was like, he's distracted. And I'm like, why I released that Doc Rivers yelled at him? But I was also thinking maybe media was there. Was it open to the media? Probably. It could have been down. That's what I was thinking. But also, when I saw Joel Embed,
Starting point is 00:16:49 was like, I don't give a fuck, what do you do? Something to that effect. Yeah, Jewel's done. It's like, shit. But even, like, if you're the GM, you got to sit down with Joelle and go, you're trying to trade this guy. If you say he's garbage, we can't trade him for anybody good. Don't you want to win?
Starting point is 00:17:02 Only one other person you can trade him for. Kyrie. Kyrie. Right up the street in Brooklyn. That's the only person that they probably can move Bill Simmons with. They got the same rules with the vaccine? I don't know. Pennsylvania might.
Starting point is 00:17:16 The vaccine rules don't make no sense. New York is probably the strictest, I'm sure. No, because they were, yeah, they don't make, the rules don't make it. This is what I don't understand. Like, Bradley Beal, who plays for the Washington Bullets. the Washington Bullets? Wizards now. Yeah, I can't believe I call him the fucking bullet.
Starting point is 00:17:33 They used to be called the Bullets. They used to be called the Bullitt, bullet, bullet. So he came and played at the Guard, and he's not vexed. So you can travel and perform, but you can't go as, like, a regular person? It don't make no sense. Yeah, none of this shit about Kyrie makes sense. And once again, it's the same thing I said about the media in regards to Nikki Minaj, same thing I said in regards to LeBron James.
Starting point is 00:17:55 96% of the NBA is vaccinated. 96%. Do y'all motherfuckers want people to get the vaccine or not? Because if you want people to get the vaccine, who cares if Kyrie's not vaccinated? Steph Curry's vaccinated. Kauai Leonard, LeBron James, Yannis,
Starting point is 00:18:11 all of these superstars that are bigger stars than Kyrie. The point is what a lot of this, Kyrie brings attention to whatever your platform is. That's why you talk about Kyrie, because it's not just the vaccine. It's the flatter of shit. It's to stepping on the logo in Boston. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:18:28 It's the contentious relationship with LeBron James. It's all of these things that factor in the Kyrie. He is a media magnet. He brings attention to your platform. That's why they're talking about Kyrie Irving. Do you think that they lied to us about the flat and the curve thing? I remember when they were like, we just need to flatten the curve. Oh, yeah, they've been lied about that.
Starting point is 00:18:50 And it's like... They don't even talk about that shit no more. Yeah, it's like the curve is flattened. And there's 96% of the players are vaccinated. That means that the staff is. is probably around the same thing, if not more, because they don't have the leverage to push back.
Starting point is 00:19:02 So who the fuck is cut? I know it sounds crazy. I'm defending, Kyrie, but like, who is he infecting? If everybody else around is faxed, and he's not,
Starting point is 00:19:11 and the only thing I do is test negative. Now, you could then call himself as you're like, oh, so you let all these other people do it so you didn't have to, you're a selfish piece of shit, that's fine. You could say,
Starting point is 00:19:19 you could make that argument, but to try and act as if he's going to infect the entire league who's already vaccinated. It makes no sense. Yeah. Come on. It literally makes. no sense. And it just, I'm telling you,
Starting point is 00:19:29 it's all for media attention. And I salute to Stephen A. Smith, respect Stephen A. Smith. Oh, he used it. He got Stephen A. Smith teased it on live. He was like tuning in tomorrow. You know what I mean? But he got to sell, bro. He got to. And I'm not mad at him. The numbers are. But you know what's crazy, though, is like
Starting point is 00:19:45 when LeBron was speaking out and being an activist, they told him, shut up and dribble, the conservatives. Right? And the liberals came out and they were like, he's more than an athlete, he should be able to say whatever the fuck he wants. Right?
Starting point is 00:20:01 Kyrie is like, I don't want to get vaccinated. Liberals are like, shut up and dribble. Liberals say shut up and dribble. And the conservative... Shut up, get the shot and dribble. Boom, done. And the conservatives are like... Let him talk.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Freedom of speech. We need athletes to talk. It's bullshit, bro. So I'm looking at how the world works and I'm like, yo, nobody... Nobody's consistent. Nobody's consistent. All they are is consistently on their team. What if your team believes in, that's what you say?
Starting point is 00:20:29 That's right. And I love, because if you pay attention, there's always these things of duality, right? Like this morning on the radio, we were talking about Donald Trump. Yeah. And Trump's comments about Colin Powell. Legend. So I'm just waiting. I'm just waiting.
Starting point is 00:20:45 Let's read it. Here the thing. Let's read. Let's read. I'm just waiting. Let's pull it up. I'm waiting for the room to push back and be like, oh, Donald Trump is this. and Donald Trump is that.
Starting point is 00:20:58 And I'm like, Donald Trump, and I literally said Donald Trump is like majority of these rappers we know. Keep that same energy. Right? I've seen rappers, 50-cent, Boosey. If you was an op alive, you're an op when you die. You know? Fuck them forever.
Starting point is 00:21:17 So you can't report on Boosey and 50 and just laugh it off. But then when it comes to Trump, like, this is so distasteful and so disrespectful. And is that, no, you got to be consistent all across the board. The only thing Trump don't got is an album. It's the truth. Not yet. Not yet. Listen, this was wild.
Starting point is 00:21:37 He's a wild boy. But at the same time, it's like, you know, Colin Powell lied to Congress so that we could go to war in Iraq and search for weapons that we know we're not there. Trump, Trump's statement Tuesday. Where is it? Oh, I got you. I got you. I got you. Ready?
Starting point is 00:21:55 They got a video of it. They got a video of it. Wonderful to see Colin Powell. Wonderful to see Colin Powell who made big mistakes, big mistakes on Iraq. And famously so-called weapons of mass destruction be treated in death so beautifully by the fake news media. Hope that happens to me someday. He was a classic rhino. Rino means a Republican in name only.
Starting point is 00:22:18 So you basically cap like you're a Republican, but you're not. So you got a Dino then. So Joe Manchin and Crescent Cinema are Dino. Yeah. Got you. So if even that, always being the first to attack other Republicans, he made plenty of mistakes. But anyway, may he rest in peace. And don't forget that.
Starting point is 00:22:36 I hope this happens for me. Yeah. Because he said the media, you know, and which is true. Like the media wasn't the fondest of coal empire when he was alive, especially after the Iraq war thing. You know, in later years when he endorsed Barack Obama. He pushed back against Trump. But I don't remember. Remember that Iraq war stuff?
Starting point is 00:22:56 A lot of people died, B. Hell yeah, Bush. Hold him accountable. Hold him accountable. Hold all that motherfuckers accountable. It's like, that's a lot of unnecessary death, bro. That's a lot of unnecessary death. I just don't like reducing people to their worst moments when they passed away.
Starting point is 00:23:12 But I understand. I saw a lot of my Muslim friends on Instagram, too, going in on Colin Powell. You know what I'm? Oh, they was going in. Oh, man, they was going in. They was like, you know, how many people died in the Iraq war and yada, yada. So, I mean, it is what it is. That's part of the legacy.
Starting point is 00:23:27 It's one of those things where it's like, you know, someone's death shouldn't be celebrated, but it don't have to be sad. Well, I mean, not every death is sad. I'm sorry. But, but the reason you got to be careful with stuff like that is because we're not his family. We're not his friends.
Starting point is 00:23:45 Exactly. You know what I mean? It could be sad to them. Yeah, exactly. To them, they're going to mourn forever. But there's people that are rejoicing. I mean, I'm sure there's people who lost family members. Yeah, I'll never do that.
Starting point is 00:23:53 No, that's why. If that motherfucker kills your whole family? That's why people go to funeral. You're not going to be excited? Not, nah, not at the point I'm at my life right now. I'd feel bad. I'd be sending them healing energy. I really do.
Starting point is 00:24:06 I don't want to wish that on nobody. I'm not good. Whatever I say all the time, I hope you get whatever you deserve. So that's it. He got what he did. But no, no, he died because of complications of COVID. So that could be any of us. That could be any of our parents.
Starting point is 00:24:19 That could be a person that we all love. Like, that can happen to anybody. Look, I'll be honest, I don't know enough about the fucking... I only watch that movie, Vice. What? That's all the line, no. I don't know enough about the Iraq War and weapons of mass instruction. I don't know either.
Starting point is 00:24:35 That's why... That's right. That's right. But if you think that motherfucker is the reason why you and your family was getting bombed in the Middle East... Don't call him a mother-effley. He's dead. Maybe he fucked moms, bro. I was like...
Starting point is 00:24:47 Jesus Christ! I don't know if that's necessarily a bad thing. What's up with you in words all of a sudden? Words matter. You know, this got to say nothing. Say nothing, bro. That's fucking blues clues in. Word out of, man.
Starting point is 00:25:01 No, whatever. The only reason I say, no, I'm just looking at it from the perspective of, and this is the thing, right? We're not, we're all in a space. You might run into someone somebody in Colum Powell's family. Yeah. You understand what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:25:15 Like, you're not. Hey no? When I say this wrong? What I said? Telling you, man. Listen, I know. Listen, I know. what you're going through.
Starting point is 00:25:24 I know, because I go through all this time with Akosh on a podcast. Yes. Akash would be talking crazy about certain people. I'm like, oh,
Starting point is 00:25:30 you know, like I might have to do a movie because of course. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You are not here yet. It's just that simple. But I'm saying that with you too.
Starting point is 00:25:39 I feel bad with you. Word up. You might be talking to Colin's nephew next week. I don't know them. No, they might be fans of yours. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:45 They might be. I'm not even joking. Somebody in Colin Powell's family might be like nice. I fuck with Andrew. Well, I tell that motherfucker thank you.
Starting point is 00:25:51 Hey, hey, you got good taste, my dude. You got good taste, bro. You can't judge a son by the sins of the father. And I'm just, I am just respectful of how we speak on the dead. I am. That's just me, you know what I'm just respectful. How do you know he's dead? Hey, shut up.
Starting point is 00:26:11 Never did. Even after I die, I am not dead. But you might not be. Say what? You might not be. That's the thing. I say that all the time when people be like, yolo, you only live once. How do you know?
Starting point is 00:26:19 You only live once. I live twice. We don't know what we're doing. I tell them that. Well, you have to die in order to live a second time. But what if you just, what if it's just a continuation? Like, literally, what if you die, right? And you're looking at yourself like, oh, shoot.
Starting point is 00:26:32 The next time you wake up you somewhere else. Shoot. I'm dead. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Oh, oh, jinkies. Jeez Louise.
Starting point is 00:26:45 Jeez Louise. What a drink. Jesus. Louise. Jesus, Louise. who said that. Who said that? That was on the breakfast club.
Starting point is 00:26:56 I had a witch on breakfast club. Yeah, somebody. She told me I was here for a long time. Oh. But that's what I mean. I feel like, you know, souls, we don't know what souls do. We're just assuming. Like, we don't know what happens when you pass away.
Starting point is 00:27:08 I think physically you're not here, but I do think spiritually. I'm gonna tell you something. It's gonna sound real crazy. What makes you think physically we're not here? Like, how'd you come to that concluded? Like, that after, well, that's what I was getting at. You know what's so interesting about that? You know what's so interesting about that?
Starting point is 00:27:29 Charlotte and I come in to nothing. He goes, he goes, he goes, we might not be physically here after we die. I don't know for sure, but we might not. We might not be. It's a chance. We are. You might not be, man. But no, my sister, who I love Debbie Brown, she came here about a month ago.
Starting point is 00:27:44 She did like an energy cleansing on me. You know, she said some stuff I had to get off me. And she said, you're going to start this. see a lot of things, right? Like, you're going to start to see a lot of things, right? Because, you know, you already have, like, a lot of psychic intuition, so you're going to start to see a lot of things. And she's not lying.
Starting point is 00:28:01 I've been seeing spirits and feeling spirits. I'm telling. By the way, I've always saw this kind of stuff, but it's really intense now to the point where, like, if somebody's talking about somebody dead, I almost can feel the person in the room. And, like, and I've said things about, huh? You're taking my gummies? No.
Starting point is 00:28:19 I've said things about, I've said, I've said, I've, said things about people that identify as dead and they've been like, You know, listen, we're talking about how people identify. Let us be progressive. Y'all stay over there. Y'all ain't, y'all not woke as though. So I was talking to people that were identify as dead and like, I'll say something about them. You've never heard that?
Starting point is 00:28:42 I.D. Yeah, go, go, go, go, go. I say something about them and hear them be like, no. That's not what happened. They'll say that in the world. Yes. Really? Yes.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Like, for example, who, who? Who? Who were you talking about? I was talking, I actually was talking about my mother's father like two weeks ago. Your mother's father. And then they were in the room. No, no, my mother's, my daddy's mother. I'm bugging.
Starting point is 00:29:06 My daddy's mother. Your grandma. My grandma. Your grandma. My dad, one of my grandmas. I was actually talking about her and I saw her vividly. Nope, that was not true. And you believe this and you believe this from Dev and like you 100%?
Starting point is 00:29:20 Yes. And you don't believe scientists with the vaccine? Who says I don't believe the scientists with the vaccine? Like you don't trust the vaccine, but you trust. I've never said that. It's not that I don't trust the vaccine. I don't trust this government. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:29:35 But it's like I don't trust the medical system when it comes to how we treat black people. But I've never been an anti-vaccine. But this vaccine's going to the whites too. I know. Do you think they have a different version for the blacks? No, but that's why I said maybe. But that's why I said I'm not an answer.
Starting point is 00:29:50 anti-vaccine. That's the main thing. I always tell, I tell people, if you're afraid of the vaccine, go get it in a white neighborhood. Yeah, that's a great idea. I went and got mine in a black neighborhood. Really? Yeah. Those are the only ones available. Really? Because they have so many. There were so many. Literally, this is what people were doing. As they were just going to black neighborhoods to get it. I'm not anti-vax at all. You know, I was even having a conversation with some OGs in my family. And they was like, we had polio vaccines and mumps and measles and everything else, you know what I mean? Those vaccines worked.
Starting point is 00:30:22 And by the way, they was getting those vaccines when they was really trying to take black people out in a real way. Yeah. You know what I mean? But at least they show that they work. We're seeing people who get cured off. Yeah, you mean get a polio vaccine and then still got some polio. And still got the shit.
Starting point is 00:30:36 Yeah. And still could be able to pass it along and do all that. Like, I wish that they called this shit something different. I wish they didn't call the vaccine. I wish they were like. Preventive measure. Yeah. Like something like that.
Starting point is 00:30:45 Like here's a shield or here's a whatever. Yeah. Because if you could still get it. even though you have the vaccine, now it's going to make me question all vaccines. Yeah. Right? Because I thought.
Starting point is 00:30:56 I mean, they say all vaccines aren't 100% effective, but this one feels. It's a lot of breakthrough. Word is, more. That commercial, man. It's a lot of breakthrough. Man, I hate that commercial. What, with the little boy?
Starting point is 00:31:08 Yeah, I'm talking about, I'll tell all my friends that. Why are you doing that fake commercial when you're talking about some real people out of really dying? Give me a real motherfucker. I guess I know you younger than me. Why, why? I grew up on the guy with the microphone and the hole in his throat.
Starting point is 00:31:20 That's real, though. The smoker. Oh, you think that that's fake? What do you mean? Smoker, motherfucker like, ah, gang, gang, ang. Wow. Wow. No, you know what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:31:29 Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. I'm not fucking. Wow. I hope that. You might as well say, I'm going to buy you a drink now.
Starting point is 00:31:36 You might as well keep going. You know, listen. Is that person fake? Keep going. Yeah, that's fake. No way. It's fake. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:43 No, that's not fake. I'll be pissed off with that's fake. What was that? Was that a smoking commercial? The cigarettes. Cigarette commercial, right? I thought it was for, like, microphones or some shit. No, I thought it was like, I thought that's what it was.
Starting point is 00:31:58 I thought that she was for Bose. Media is going to do comedy, guys. You know, never got to worry about a comedian not doing comedy. Andrew Schultz is a comedian, ladies and gentlemen. Yeah, you're going to get it. All right. If one person going to do comedy, it's Andrew motherfucking Schultz. But no, but that's why I grew up on that era.
Starting point is 00:32:18 I grew up in the era of that guy in the cigarette commercial. Therefore, just like that. I had one of them at a show once. No. Yeah. Yeah, the worst show I ever did. There was only four people there. And two of the four were a guy who was laughing like this.
Starting point is 00:32:33 Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. And then his nurse. I'm not laughing at this. Yeah. That shit ain't funny. I'm not laughing, you know. I don't laugh at nobody. You never know what?
Starting point is 00:32:45 You never felt like. you kill him before you see a dude just go, nah, nah, yeah. That's different level of killing. I don't know why I'm having more kids. That's different level about this shit. So your boy was out here. But no, that's the choice.
Starting point is 00:32:58 That guy was smoking cigarettes, right? Yeah, he was smoking cigarettes. Yeah. I haven't, you know what's so crazy? I haven't seen that since those commercials back in the day. He'd be throwing me off too because he takes a little longer for him to get the laugh out. So I'd start the next joke, but I'd still be hearing, nah, yeah, yeah, I'm not laughing at this shit.
Starting point is 00:33:14 I'm not laughing at this shit. I'm not laughing at me. Why? What? What? What? He thought about this type of shit. Listen.
Starting point is 00:33:25 He thought it was funny too. God, no. No, I was saying, if he was laughing, did you clown on the machine? What? Did I clown on the machine? Oh, oh, oh. I thought you were calling him a machine. No.
Starting point is 00:33:37 Did you make jokes about it? No, did I talk about the situation? Yeah. What did you ask you? Say what? What do you say? I just did my whole set with my mic right here. I didn't understand.
Starting point is 00:33:48 You ain't asking what happened? We speak in the same language. You ain't asking what happened? You don't think that he understood it perfectly like that? Jesus, that's right. Try it right now. How long you guys been together? You said that?
Starting point is 00:34:02 No, no. No, try it right now. Have we seen that, though? What do you call that? It's a name for it. What? When you smoke that many cigarettes that that happens to you? Long something.
Starting point is 00:34:11 It's like your throat goes. Is it a cancer? Is it a form of cancer? All right. Let me put you for the goddamn bill. Relax is great. He goes, he goes, lung something. We ain't even talking about no fucking lungs.
Starting point is 00:34:27 It is your lungs. It's your lungs, fuck the other. It's here. I think it's like esophical cancer. No, it's a trache. Trache. Yeah, you're trachea. So.
Starting point is 00:34:35 When people get shot, you got to have to tricke it and put it in their throat so they can breathe. So they can breathe. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right. That's right. So, yeah, he basically has a hole right here. Damn. Yeah. And it's like...
Starting point is 00:34:46 God bless him. Because the rest of this, you can't even use. You got to eat through here. Everything got to go through here, bro. Yeah. The rest of this right here is just done. Yeah, you just... You don't even...
Starting point is 00:34:54 I'm telling you, I have not seen anybody with that since those commercials. You think that stopped that? I'm not saying they stopped. I just haven't seen it. Like, maybe, maybe now people aren't smoking as many cigarettes or more like aware of their health or something shit. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:35:06 Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. I don't know. Let's pay some bills and then come back and talk about a conversation. couple of things. Just God, man. Yeah, what's up, man? What do you think he did for a lemon?

Starting point is 00:45:05 But next week, I was talking about it on Colbert last night. We're doing a cowardly donkey episode. Yeah, how is the Colbert? That's cool. I love doing Colbert. I love the Ed Sullivan Theta, man. Yeah, that's really good. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:45:17 El Sullivan Theater is like, to me, it's like, that's quintessential New York to me. You know what I mean? I have no idea who Ed Sullivan was. Me neither. And it just dawned on me yesterday that this was not Ed McMahon. You know what I mean? But Ed Sullivan, I just love the theater. I love the energy in that theater.
Starting point is 00:45:32 I love Colbert's audience because Colbert's audience is so smart. And Colbert does something before every show that I just realized he did yesterday. And I don't want to say what it is, but it is a very good technique if you host a late night show. Because it's a good gauge of a crowd. Can you tell? No, I want to say it just gives you a good gauge of a crowd. And you probably do the same thing in comedy. You probably watch opening acts.
Starting point is 00:45:57 And you can tell by. what the crowd is responding to, what type of crowd this is. Might be a crowd that's a little too uptight, a little too woke. You know what I mean? This is a crowd where you, that's smart, so you can get some of that smart shit off
Starting point is 00:46:11 or a crowd that just laughs and want that raw shit. You can tell, I think, by your opening act. Same thing with DJs. When DJs have opening DJs, they know, okay, I know where to take this party. You know what I mean, Naila? You know what I mean, right? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:28 So it's the same thing, because Nail is a DJ. So it's just like, yeah, he just has this technique that I think is cool that I will be stealing for the gods. It's true. It was cool, though. I like it. It makes sense. You know? But yes, we got the cowardly
Starting point is 00:46:40 donkey episode where we just address why the Democrats are cowards. Yeah, yeah, because they're not just cowards because they're cowards. They're cowards because of politics. But we'll talk about it next Friday at 10 p.m. On Comedy Central. I'm tuning in. I'm tuning in. If you're shitting on Democrats,
Starting point is 00:47:00 Hey, man, I'm an American citizen. I hold whoever's in the White House accountable. I think just hold them all. They're all scumbags. It's easy to just call them all scumbags, politicians. And I'm sure there's politicians that get them for great reasons, and they want to help and all this stuff. I can't tell.
Starting point is 00:47:17 Yeah, I think probably they get corrupted by the process. I can't tell. I am skeptical of people that want power, though. It's a weird thing to want power. You know, there are many different ways you can help. It depends what you're using your power for. Yeah, but just the wanting of powers. Yeah, that's just, that's not cool.
Starting point is 00:47:34 Weird. And then by the way, Hillary's like one of the only ones speaking truth to power right now. Hillary, who? Hillary, God damn, Rodham, Clinton, Clinton. Get out of here. Yes, man. What's she saying? Hillary said a couple weeks ago, she was like, don't trust women.
Starting point is 00:47:47 No, she said you got to, she said, she said, she said, you have to get rid of the filibuster, right? Because she was like, we're not even able to govern if you don't get rid of the filibuster because she was like, you know, the GOP is not, they're lawless. They're not following no rules. Can you explain what the filibuster is to those us idiots that don't know? The filibuster is, if they got rid of the filibuster right now, they could literally pass any type of legislation they wanted because they have the House and because they have the Senate,
Starting point is 00:48:12 and even if it was a tie vote, the tiebreaker would go to Kamala Harris. So literally any legislation that they wanted to pass. But what does a filibuster mean? Philibuster is when you just talk for that long to prevent shit from happening to sum it up in layman's terms. Chris, am I getting that right? negotiator. Chris not even there.
Starting point is 00:48:31 Chris why the squid game. Yeah, you got it. You got it. What do you say? I didn't hear that. Chris trying that squid game. He made his own squid game. Chris crying like a Chris ate squid game.
Starting point is 00:48:47 No, that is wild, though. That show is wild, bro. Chris, am I getting this right, Chris? Yeah, you got it. It's a very elaborate and confusing and long playing stall game, basically. It's a way for parties that aren't in power to jam up the mechanisms of power so that the other party can't get something through.
Starting point is 00:49:06 Longest filibuster in history. How long has it been? 25 hours. It got to be two women, right? Guess who it? Shut up, man. I'm just saying, because, listen, I can talk for a long time.
Starting point is 00:49:18 Y'all massaginistic motherfuckings. There's so crazy. There ain't no men talking for that long. Yes, it actually was a man. It was. Strong motherfucking term. In of South Carolina spoke for 25 hours to keep these nils.
Starting point is 00:49:29 from being able to have any goddamn civil rights. Really? Yes, 25 hours, man. Was he talking to a woman? No, he's talking to America. He's talking to the world, the country. But wait, I guess what I understand is, like, why after that amount of time does the law not get past? Probably people exhausted.
Starting point is 00:49:44 Like, man, let's go to home, man. Oh, that's it. Yeah, that's it. God damn. Y'all can drink out of separate waterfront for a little while. I can't listen to this motherfucker over. Jesus Christ, man. That's probably what it was.
Starting point is 00:49:56 I'm telling you, you probably get sick of hearing this motherfucker and talk, 25 hours? But is that what it is? I'm just trying to understand. Yes, that's what it is. It's a stall game and they will stall you to fuck out. Until what? I don't know until what.
Starting point is 00:50:10 I just know that they can get rid of it if they wanted to. And if they did right now, they literally could pass any legislation they wanted. Hey, Chris? Yeah. So what happens if they just weighed out the stall? I guess that's what I'm missing. I think each bill or measure that's introduced has to be voted.
Starting point is 00:50:29 voted on in a set amount of time in order for it to pass and the idea is that they, they, you know, so like a famous technique is people used to read the phone book, you know, like somebody would get up with a phone book and just read it and it would take 48 hours or something outrageous like that. And then the time has expired. And basically both, both parties, when they're not in power, say this is anti-democracy, this is terrible. We should get rid of it. But neither of them really want to get rid of it because when you're, when power shifts back the other way, this is the only thing you have to jam stuff up.
Starting point is 00:51:03 So the end result is things are constantly jammed up. That's right. And Hillary's like, you got to get rid of the filibuster in order to govern because if you don't, we're on our way to minority rule. And that's literally what it looks like right now. And it's just so crazy.
Starting point is 00:51:15 When we say it's two wings on the same bird, like it really got to be two wings on the same bird. Because there's no way any politician who actually cares about America, actually cares about democracy, is cool with the way things. going right now. Like, there's literally four things the Biden administration has to do to protect democracy and they're not doing it. And it's so basic. Protect voting rights. Right. Get rid of the
Starting point is 00:51:39 filibus in so they can govern. Pack the motherfucking Supreme Court. Whoa, whoa, whoa. You want to pack the court? Yes. They got a conservative six-street majority in the Supreme Court. Whenever you see the Supreme Court upholding handmade tales laws for abortion in Texas, come on, man. You don't think that's undemocratic to what? To pack the Supreme Court? court? No, not when you got a 6-3 conservative majority. It got to be balanced. And look at the stuff that they're upholding. Does it have to be balanced? Yes, man. That's not the rule. You're right, but still, you can't have, they're supposed to be objective. That's the court that's supposed to be objective. That's the court that's not supposed to be playing any party. They're
Starting point is 00:52:17 supposed to be doing what's right and it's supposed to be based on the Constitution. And so, I mean, we know from the way that they ruled that usually people rule according to their party, but if they are objective and these people are objective, then what does it matter? what their politics are. They're not objective, though. But they think objectively that's the right answer to the problem. But it's not.
Starting point is 00:52:34 And we know it's not. Handmaid tale, abortion laws in Texas, upholding, you know, voter suppression in Arizona. No. But by the way, everybody said that was going to happen. That's what the crazy part is. They were telling Biden or whoever you're going to have to put more seats
Starting point is 00:52:49 in the Supreme Court. This shit is going to be super lopsided. But then what happens? Like, we just keep on adding seats to, you know, to even it out every time this new president. And maybe, like, Lifetime appointments, it shouldn't be lifetime appointments. That's the other thing.
Starting point is 00:53:02 Maybe the Supreme Court should have to change every eight years instead of lifetime appointments? You're talking about filibuster. People that identify his dad are still on the Supreme Court. Yeah, I don't know. That's weird. I don't know. The pack in the courts thing is a little bit peculiar to me. That's the one that gets the most pushback.
Starting point is 00:53:21 But in the fourth one is you simply got to prosecute the motherfuckers who did an attempted coup in this country on January 6th. You got to make an example. You should. That's as simple as that. You got to make an example. People get killed for that in other countries. Literally.
Starting point is 00:53:34 Here in America, there's like, one of those guys is taking this shit so not serious. He's representing himself in court. Like, what kind of shit is that, man? For a federal offense. Like, you had thousands of people screaming to hang the vice president of the United States of America. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:49 Is that not a federal offense? You can just say that shit now? That's all I'm saying. But they're not moving on any of that. So it's a free fall in America at this point. But outside of that, the temperature seems pretty low in America politically. What do you mean? Like, there's no real issues.
Starting point is 00:54:06 Like, nobody's really complaining. Like, we make a big deal about the vaccine thing. But, like, the majority of people are vaccinated. Oh, no. It's a bunch of real issues. That's the point. Like, they don't, like, Joe Biden will get out there and other people will say, this is the worst, this is the worst threat to our democracy since the Civil War.
Starting point is 00:54:21 Well, act like it, motherfucker's. But what is? Like, what are people really upset about it? Voter suppression, the fact that voting rights are being taken away? Who's voting? What do you mean? Like where the vote? What's the vote for?
Starting point is 00:54:31 What do you mean? Like, is there a big vote coming up? Like, I'm trying to- Come on, you're not being, you're not being for real. I'm like- So why do you do pre-orders? Pre-orders for what? Just shows.
Starting point is 00:54:40 Why you put pre-orders to sell or Radio City? Oh, you're saying like, why, I didn't do pre-orders, but I understand what you're saying. Yes. They prepare for the, to steal the election next time. Yes, I'm not going to wait for a week before.
Starting point is 00:54:53 Right. I'm putting these borders of pressure laws in place now. Midterms next year, baby. But who can do that if they can't get anything through Congress? Local governments. So that's not something that that's not something that the president has to. You can pass something on the federal level to protect voting rights. Got you.
Starting point is 00:55:11 Got you. But shouldn't we be putting pressure on our local politicians to not do these laws? They are. But it's like nobody's talking about it. I think it's what? 28 voters suppression laws in 18 states. And no, I take that back. I'm not going to say nobody.
Starting point is 00:55:27 Nobody's not talking about it, because you got Latasha Brown and Black, Black Votters Matter, you got Tamika Mallory and them and Untaughtn'telf Freedom, they're literally protesting. They're going to Capitol Hill. They're getting arrested. But to your point, nobody cares. I think what happens is, like, when you have a Biden-esque president, you can kind of lull the people to sleep. Oh, you're right? What happens is usually the president is a lightning rod.
Starting point is 00:55:52 We're talking this on Flaynard, too, but, like, is a lightning rod because the president of your country. is supposed to be the ideal citizen in your eyes. Now, if you're someone who didn't vote for that president, that's the wrong example of an American. So you're upset at almost everything that they do and they believe it. Yeah, yeah. Like you were talking about earlier, like you've picked the side. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:56:12 So, like, even though that president is the president of America and that guy will say, I want to be president for all presidents, we don't look at it like that. Exactly. So now everything that he takes a stand on, half the people are tight on. The reason why presidents are so popular during war usually is because usually the whole country can at least agree, well, let's fuck some people up there trying to fuck us up. So that's why they're positive. Why after 9-11, everybody was so.
Starting point is 00:56:32 Hey, George Bush, you threw a strike. Bravo. Everybody loves him, right? So, but what happens with Biden is he's so non-existent. Like, Trump was so accessible. Everything that he said became news and then divided the country on that issue, no matter what he fucking said. So it seemed like the temperature was so high.
Starting point is 00:56:50 It seemed like everybody was about to fight in the streets. And now it feels like we're lulled to sleep. Like, I literally, I don't watch the news because I feel like. nothing's newsworthy. I feel like nothing's even going on. Everything y'all think news. I didn't even know about this voter suppression. Yes. Everything y'all thought Trump was doing in the White House is still happening. Oh, nothing changes no matter who's president. The only thing changed right now is the temperature. And that's just by not exposing Biden to anything. Don't make him make a stand
Starting point is 00:57:12 on anything. And then people won't be upset and use him to push back. And that's why they're trying to create these different enemies. Biden, not even the president. Joe Manson's the president. Who's that? Joe Minster, Senator from West Virginia. He's calling all the shots. Really? Hell yeah. Blocking everything. Like, he's the man. He's the man. He's really the man and his Christian Cinema and all of that, but it's just like... And who's Christian Cinema? She's from she's the Senate of from Arizona.
Starting point is 00:57:34 But, I mean, like you said, Dino, she's a Dino. She's a Democrat. What was that word? A Dino. A Dino? Yeah, Democrat in name. Name only. That's, that's definitely them. And what's going to be crazy next year, this is my prediction. They lose the House in the Senate. They're going to impeach Joe Biden.
Starting point is 00:57:51 On what cause? Probably Afghanistan. Right? Not Afghanistan. Yeah, what happened in Afghanistan? Can you impeach him on that? Hell yeah. What did he do? It was illegal? What the fuck was it?
Starting point is 00:58:03 What was it, Chris? He pulled it. He pulled the troops out of playing. It was controversy around the withdrawal. And they said he, he bangled it or, you know, bumble it and, you know, put U.S. troops at risk. And a lot of U.S. troops died in the bombing of the airport and Kabul. It's BS. I mean, it's basically you guys tried to impeach Trump.
Starting point is 00:58:24 So now it's our turn. And we're 100%. Tit for tat. Tit for tat. Yeah. It's bullshit. Tit for tat. And they're going to do that.
Starting point is 00:58:30 And I think they get control of the White House. And I think, you know, we all got to ask ourselves some real questions. You know, do you want to live in a state that has minority rule? Do you want to live in a country that has minority rule? So I think everybody better be nice to Drake because candidly it might be the move. Really? Maybe. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:58:49 Why is it? Why is it? Don't do that. Don't do that fucking, like, runaway shit. You always heard all those, like, celebs said that. If Trump's president, I'm moving to Canada. I don't know. I don't know if there's Trump president,
Starting point is 00:59:00 but I don't think nobody wants to live in a country and the minority rule. I think that we have to accept that the minority does rule America. And that minority is... Because of the way the system is set up. Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:59:10 And the people that rule America are the billionaires, the corporations. Not only that, even with votes. Even with votes. I mean, sure. But like, you can manipulate people to vote in whatever way if you have enough money.
Starting point is 00:59:24 Yeah, but like right now, These votes are weighted in such a way that, you know, a white man in Oklahoma vote means way more than a million liberals here in New York City. Gotcha. You know what I mean? And that's why Democrats will never truly do anything for black people. They don't have a reason to. Yeah, there's no reason.
Starting point is 00:59:48 There's really no reason to. I can't cater to y'all too much because if I cater to y'all too much than that white man in Oklahoma, it's going to be like, I don't fuck with him. He's a nigger-lover. You know what I mean? Or something to that effect, you know? Yeah. So that's all.
Starting point is 01:00:00 I'm just, I'm, like, I'm fascinated hearing you talk about this because it feels as if you're still in like a Trump-era, anxious state about the politics that's happening right now. It's actually worse. And for me, I am in a state where I'm like, does anybody care about anything anymore? Like, I literally will ask people at shows, I'll be like, yeah, what's going on? Like, what is touching you? But that's my state, though. Say again?
Starting point is 01:00:24 I'm right. I'm right there with you. Yeah. Like, I'm there with you. Like, none of y'all see what the fuck is going on. Oh, so that's what you're anxious about. You're anxious about the lack of reaction. Yes.
Starting point is 01:00:34 That's why I was happy what Hillary said a couple weeks ago. I'm like, okay, well, at least somebody's seeing this shit. Like, you know what I mean? At least somebody with some power, some cashier. Because Hillary's a centrist fucking Democrat. Like, she's not a radical ringing the alarm. She's like, yo, y'all tripping. She's part of the system.
Starting point is 01:00:52 She's super part of the system. So if she's saying the system is broken and that, Democrats need to motherfucking have some balls about them, right? And stand up on their two feet and fucking get rid of the filibuster so they can govern. And we're going to be under the threat of minority rule. If she's saying that, man, somebody might need to listen. But this, I don't know, like, what does she want to stand up against? Like, this is like a, she's as apolitical as possible, right?
Starting point is 01:01:15 I don't know what that means. She's just, she's not really a Democrat, right? She's not really conservative. Like, she's still a war hawk. She's a centrist. She's a centrist. She's a centrist. So if she's a centrist, then, like,
Starting point is 01:01:26 What is it that she actually is looking out for? I think she is just trying to uphold democracy as we know it. Is she? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because one thing about Democrats, and I could be wrong, it looks like they play by the
Starting point is 01:01:39 rules. And they play by the rules a little too much. I don't think so. I think they both manipulate the rules as much as they can. The fact that Democrats have super delegates is already undemocratic. Republicans don't have that. You talk about one person in Oklahoma having a thousand votes compared to one person in New York. But if you look at a super delicate, literally that's what it is.
Starting point is 01:01:58 It's one person just because they held some political office gets to have a million votes in Michigan. That's not fair. Why should one man be more valuable than another? Or look, think about how they would not allow the president of the United States to name somebody to the Supreme Court after Merrick Garland. What, America? Merri Gowling died. He died? No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 01:02:21 Before Ruth Bader, when Obama was in office. Chris. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Garland was the nominee and the Republicans blocked it. They called and they blocked it. Yeah, they both do it. Both sides are corrupt and both sides are a piece of shit.
Starting point is 01:02:36 Republicans weigh more gangster though. I think Republicans are just smarter. They weigh more gangs. If Republicans were in the situation they was in right now where they had the White House and control of the House and control of the Senate and all they had to do is get rid of the filibuster the past, whatever the fuck they want. They figured out. Done.
Starting point is 01:02:52 And wouldn't be no Joe Manchin of Christian cinema. Donald Trump would have had a man. million names for them motherfuck standing in a goddamn way blocking me. We don't even know who they are. I didn't know Joe Manson was. Kristen Sinema, okay, I don't know what the fuck she is. That's all I'm saying. There's just a news flash that literally just came out like three minutes ago that says
Starting point is 01:03:09 Manchin is now saying he's going to leave the Democratic Party and go Republicans. No. Yeah. See what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? Whether it happens or not. Beano. Beano.
Starting point is 01:03:20 Billion idiots. What's an N-O-stampful? Name only. Brilliant. idiot and name only. We're fucking brilliant. You hear me? All right. Let's pay some bills, man. All right, guys. We need to take a break for a second because I got to make sure that you guys

Let's jump into some shit you won't care about next week, which is actually some of this stuff that we had in Politically Brilliant. What a fucking idiot. I think what they're doing, Vanessa Bryan in L.A. is just despicable. What's going on?
Starting point is 01:05:45 They want her to submit to a psychiatric exam. Why? Because she has a lawsuit against, who is it, is it the LAPD or some law enforcement in L.A. for the crash photos because somebody took pictures of the crash photos and they want her to take a psychiatric exam to prove that she was really emotionally described behind the pictures. What's wrong with humans, Joe?
Starting point is 01:06:08 Like, seriously, what's wrong with us as humans? Filibusters. That's what it is. They're about to stall her ass out. That's what it is. Oh, shit. They are filibuster and her. That's what it is.
Starting point is 01:06:20 But it's like this woman lost her 13-year-old daughter. Yeah. Her husband and partner of 20-plus years. You should want to give it to you. And I got to prove to you why I'm emotionally distraught over you taking pictures of their bodies. How much money is? Was the issue taking pictures because you probably have to do that? No, they weren't supposed to.
Starting point is 01:06:42 They were leaking them. They were showing them that they people. That's beyond groupy shit, by them. by the way. I don't even know what you call that. Whoa. Like, that's beyond groupy shit. Yo, guess what? Y'all, I was there to recover the bodies.
Starting point is 01:06:55 But who wouldn't take the pictures of that, though? What do you mean? Who wouldn't take the pictures of they seen that? I would never do that. You wouldn't do it, but I think that what we're actually saying is like, we film everything. We see two women fighting in the street. We take out our phones. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:07:09 The man is talking about some of my affiliates now reaping the girl on the thing. Oh, on the septus. But the difference between, the difference, I get what you're saying, but the difference between those people on the train, those were just people riding the train. These are actual officials that are supposed to be there doing official business. Wasn't like it was some randoms walking by. You really are random. You just got a job.
Starting point is 01:07:28 Just a person. Yeah. I guess what I'm saying, I think what we're actually saying is kind of like a natural human impulse at this time. And like if they're selling those pictures to fucking TMZ, that kind of stuff is really fucked up. That's wild. But like to take a picture of something unbelievable and then share it with your friends is kind of like, unfortunately, a pretty normal human thing now. And not when you're supposed to be doing a service, man. Like, we was talking about colonoscopies last week.
Starting point is 01:07:52 Yeah. So imagine you went to go get a colonoscopy and the doctor took a picture, you bent over. You know what I mean? And it was like, yo, this show's sad. You know what I mean? With no context. You know, you know what I'm saying? With no context.
Starting point is 01:08:06 People wanted to know why show's bent over and why this dude got the picture. And what you're going to say after that? There ain't nothing you can say. Got him. Show's going to say pop that bussy baby. Yeah, I will for a goon. I just think that's fucked up. And by the way, you're causing her more emotional distress
Starting point is 01:08:28 by making her take a goddamn psychiatric exam to prove she got emotional distress. Like, get the fuck out of here. How much she asked? Yeah, how much? I don't know. Because she's asking for 50 million in emotional distress. I need some evidence.
Starting point is 01:08:39 I need that evidence. I need to know you're 50 million upset. by me sharing the pictures. And also, how do you discern whether you're upset at the sharing of the pictures or the death of your child and husband? Probably both, though. But, like, how do you prove?
Starting point is 01:08:54 How do you go? I wasn't actually really upset at this thing, and then this other thing happened, then I became really upset. Well, I think in this era of social media, you know, we know there's some pictures like that went out online. Everybody would be sharing them for eternity.
Starting point is 01:09:09 Yeah. You know what I mean? I always think about, like, people who have to watch their family members get killed online. Like that shit lives for eternity. George Floyd, how many family that really see it? Come on, man.
Starting point is 01:09:23 Come on, man. Come on, man. That's all. That's all. That's all the white people in my neighborhood. Every time they see me, the thing that happens with George Floyd is all messed up. Every time they see me.
Starting point is 01:09:32 They say that? Every time. They want to let you know. It can happen to you. That's not like a warning to me. That's a warning. That's not like to me. All the time.
Starting point is 01:09:41 But you see what they're doing. And they just want to let me know that they're not racist. I'd be like, yo, they want to let you know, yo, that shit that happened to George Floyd. That's fucked up, ain't it? George Floyd is amazing, though, because that situation is amazing. I didn't realize so many white people did not understand what was going on in this country in regards to racism. Like, that was a lot of people's eye opening. Wake up, Korea.
Starting point is 01:10:00 Like, what the fuck? Yeah, it's been happening. Who knew? What else happened this week? What else did? Salute the young thug to a man. Young Thug came to the Breakfast Club for the first. first time. Oh, really? How was that? It was a very, I thought it was a very interesting
Starting point is 01:10:15 interview. I think Young Thug is a very interesting individual. But I mean, we knew that. I'm a fan of his. Yeah, we knew that from just like watching him over the years. But he has a very, he's very self-aware. And he has a, he has a unique intuition. I would say like a clariviance about him. And, you know, it's not an eye-opener for me, but it's just something I've realized over the years, like, words really do matter. And we'd be hurting people feelings. You know what I mean? Oh, did he bring it up?
Starting point is 01:10:50 Of course. We talked. And by the way, I couldn't even, and that's the other crap. I can't even remember what I was critical about. Yeah. Because I've always liked this music. It never was the music. It was, you know, it was.
Starting point is 01:11:00 Antiques. Yeah. You can't even call it antics because I've seen that before, too. I've seen the guys wearing the dresses or whatever. Like, that's not new in hip-hop. Yeah. You know what I mean? And, yeah, but what was interesting is him explaining to me
Starting point is 01:11:15 because he's only 30. And I mean, he was 18, 19. When I was 30. And he's like, I'm just a young kid out the ghetto. And, you know, just one of the big voices in our coach is gutting for me. Like, shit. You felt bad. You got to.
Starting point is 01:11:31 How do you not? How do you not? Especially when you know that these kids, it might be like, I remember when Poo Shaito was on breakfast come, who Shih Tuzzi was like, man, my mama love you, man. My mama, my mama the reason I even know who you are. So imagine if your mama or your parents or your aunts or uncles like somebody, but this person is being critical of you.
Starting point is 01:11:49 That's why I'm not critiquing these kids, man. I'm not doing, like, you got to let kids be kids. You got to let people grow and evolve. Still guide them. I mean, guide them. I'm going to call you out if you're doing some reckless shit that's getting people hurt. I'm going to call you out of some reckless shit if, you know, people are getting this violence behind it, stuff like that.
Starting point is 01:12:07 But I don't care what you wear. Yeah, yeah. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah. I could care less. Like, and so whatever critique I was having to him, like, he was not happy about it. And no way, shape, or form. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:12:19 Like, he really, really was bothering him. And I understand exactly why he felt that way. Because you're just a young kid, fresh out the ghetto, fresh out the hood. And he was saying, I didn't understand blogs and radio personalities and all that stuff back then. Like, I'm like, why is he talking about me like that? Yeah. So I get it.
Starting point is 01:12:34 I totally understand. Saying it was Birdman, when Birdman was there, Birdman said, I heard him say this on Big Facts podcast. Progress. Birdman was like, it didn't bother him the stuff I was saying until his daughter bought it to him. You know what I mean? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:48 That's different. Yeah. I got his doing your daughter. I'm like, I can't, I can understand that as a man. That's all. You think it would be hard for you to do your job though? No. You know, because you were, I thought, I mean, you would be hyperbolic and sarcastic, but at the same
Starting point is 01:13:08 time you were critical in a very funny way. Yeah, but it was, I can see where it could have been. No, there's no question. Like, I think you say the same thing for a lot of people that have been in your position, but that harshness is probably why people tuned in. Like if Simon Dowell was like, I'm going to go do America's Got Talent or X Factor, whatever it is, but he's like, I'm just not going to criticize any of the people that come on the show.
Starting point is 01:13:32 I'm sure a lot of people would be maybe concerned with that. I think critical of music, critical of music. critical of art is fine. But when you start being critical of like them, physical appearance, what they're wearing, whatever, background, that's different. Do you think that they're more sensitive
Starting point is 01:13:49 if you're critical over the art though? Like, for me, like, I would be way more sensitive if you were... I can deal with that, though. You can personally. I can deal with that. Because you feel like you're being honest and truthful. And it's this about music. It's not anything personal. Like, if I'm clowning you, I'm cloning you, how you look
Starting point is 01:14:05 and clowning what you're wearing and that, that could be taking as personal. That to me, so, I mean, I'm just saying, like, for me, that's just so frivolous because I'm like, I don't go fuck about this outfit. Like, people make fun of seeing my ankles every single week on the thing. Like, who cares? You cared for a moment.
Starting point is 01:14:19 You had that one moment. Now, when they hit my Jordans, when I hit my head, I had that two pack, when I had that two pack of Jordans and they came from me, that really hurt. I was saying, you had a moment. I just thought it was really, I thought it was funny. It got me, but I thought it was funny. But, like, the vulnerability of putting out something, you put out books, you know, you put out TV shows.
Starting point is 01:14:36 It was like you put something out there in the world for the world to judge. Like, it's vulnerable, man. That's why I'm so fucking tending now. When I was not dealing with emotions. Yeah. Like literally just like, you used to say that. You're a fucking sociopath. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:50 That's because I used to make myself not feel on purpose. You know what I mean? But it's like when you do share a lot of your life and you put certain things out there and then you start, you know, showing up in the world as Leonard and not the character, It's Charlemagne, right? Because the character can protect you from a lot of different things. But when you presenting as yourself,
Starting point is 01:15:13 it's like, ain't nothing to protect you. It's just you versus this. That shit different. Like, I'll be having anxiety when I go on these talk shows and I never used to feel that way. I'm not gonna just go in there bullshit. They can't come out of Charlemagne. That's it.
Starting point is 01:15:27 Might be going somewhere as my name instead of Wax. Hermes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's a safety behind the character. Yes, man. That's why I hate going to court because I hear my fucking name. That's right. I'm more mad at my name being called than the fucking charge.
Starting point is 01:15:42 Really? Hell yeah. They what the fuck you don't know me like that? The fuck you say in my name for like that? Herman. Herman. Herman. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:15:50 And then you feel like you can try him. Herman? Yeah, exactly. There's some punk-ass motherfucker that shit on the, uh, thing they wrote under my comment. It said, chill out, Herman. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.
Starting point is 01:16:03 Whoa. Whoa. You realize you just opened that door now. Everybody's calling you Herman in a comment. Now you Herman, Doodoo Man. Doodoo Man, Herm. Doodoo Herm. What you do?
Starting point is 01:16:15 What you do? What you do? Good job. Doodoo Herm. Doodoo Herm is going to be the name now. You know what's so funny. We literally just not talking about how Shaw is going to be more sensitive and not be critical. And I'm not going to hurt nobody.
Starting point is 01:16:32 It doesn't. Don't do your friends, do it? It doesn't to your friends? Why not? Why not? Why not? Oh, man. We're not human.
Starting point is 01:16:41 That's like to exercise the muscle every now and it. I do it to Naila all the time. What do you say? All types of shit. Like? I can, I don't even remember. What I'd be saying, Nile? I don't know nothing.
Starting point is 01:16:52 Good. Thank you, Dolly. She's smartening up now. Before she knew everything. Oh, what else we got, man? What can you do? Oh What happened with the white face mask?
Starting point is 01:17:08 You're cool, man. I don't care about Kanye. Yeah, me neither. I really do. I mean, Kanye is kind. There's nothing Kanye can do that shocks me. It's nothing. Like, he's Kanye.
Starting point is 01:17:19 Kanye West lives up to expectations. It's okay. That could be Kanye right there. It's okay. It's fine. Can I ask you guys about the Island Boy single? What are you talking about? What is this song?
Starting point is 01:17:32 You know, I'm an island boy. I'm an island boy. What song is that? You haven't seen it? No. An island boy is so fired, dog. What is he talking about? You never seen it?
Starting point is 01:17:43 Little John East Side Boys? No. They got something like that. No, they don't. Yes, they do. I'm an island boy. What song is this, man? I'm an island boy.
Starting point is 01:17:54 Fly soldier? That's a name? No, no, no, let me get it up. Let me get. Marky's remix. Yo, get on Instagram. Go to Axe's on Instagram. Is that it right there?
Starting point is 01:18:03 I think that's it right there. I'm an island boy. Yo, Alex, you got the weirdest people you're following. I'm an island boy. Keep going down. Is that it right there? Who I got on this podcast? Who's that he talking to?

Starting point is 01:20:50 Yeah. Facebook is probably 10% for a brand. Yeah, it don't matter. It's still Facebook. You're not, like, you're not getting away. I salute to Tristan Harris and Cowell Newport. Oh, yeah, Tristan was on your show. Yeah, man.
Starting point is 01:21:02 I had them on the God's Honest Truth last week. I mean, I'm always been a, you know, big fan of social dilemma, and I read Kyle's book Digital Minimalism a couple years ago. But, yeah, social media is exactly what we think it is. It just is when you hear, and I, you know, I'm saying, do we think social media is the devil? When you hear Tristan say, yes, the CEO of LinkedIn said that every social media app prays on one of the seven deadly sins.
Starting point is 01:21:27 Because it's already in you. You know what I mean? So they know how to bring out your vanity. They know how to bring out your envy. You know what I mean? They know how to bring out your wrath. Like, they know how to do this. Like, it's literally fueled off negative emotion.
Starting point is 01:21:40 And it's like, damn, you think these are people who are really just as angry and just this mad or upset or outrage? No, it's an algorithm. And that's where we're all at right now. I'm telling you we're emotionless, empathyless algorithms in the form of humans. So porn do that to us in one way. What do you mean?
Starting point is 01:21:59 It's just bring out like the horny in you. And he used to bring out like four or five different things. 100%. There's nothing on social media that you're going to open up the day that's not going to spark outrage. Like literally every day it's a story that sparks outrage. Yeah, when I heard that showy shit, I was pissed the fuck off. But that's a prime example of what social media has done to us.
Starting point is 01:22:18 You're talking about the shit in Philly, right? Yeah, the girl on the train. When we're getting raped on the train and everybody's just pulling out their phones recording the shit. Nobody's trying to help, no nothing. This is, I was pissed the fuck off. Because they, we don't have empathy anymore. We have, we're emotionless.
Starting point is 01:22:32 We're seeing everything through the lens of this motherfucker right here. Yeah. That shit is sad, man. Like, that's what we're at right now. We're all just fucking algorithms. That's all we care about. The fact that your mind, the first thing you think about is, oh, shit, I got to get this on camera.
Starting point is 01:22:47 Like, huh? Yeah. Yeah. Disconnect with that shit to reconnect with yourself, man. I'm scared to grab the phone. Fuck that. What else we got, Taylor? Let's do some asking idiots, man.
Starting point is 01:22:58 Let's go back. Birth control for men. Went first. Whoa. How does it work? Birth control for men's condoms, right? I mean, the birth control for men thing is cool. My wife wants me to get snipped.
Starting point is 01:23:12 Are you going to do it? Um, probably. Yeah, I'll tell you my boyfriend. boy just did it and um you can reverse it you can per clip you for the reverse it you can't get it for the for the fit you want to get it for the fit you want to get it not yeah no yeah no i don't want to buy fuck with my balls though shit them cops do it all the time i'm a um i'm gonna probably get snip i mean i probably will if she really really won't me too i don't know if that shit works i don't even know what it does like what happens when you get snipped
Starting point is 01:23:42 They just cut the Vaz deference. So it's basically where your balls connect to your penis. She got the whole pamphlet. She got the whole run down for me that I refuse to read. You don't need to read shit. But where did the nut go, though? That's a great question. I think, oh yeah, you get nut, but you just don't get sperm.
Starting point is 01:24:01 What if that shit fuck with the way the nut feels? Like what it feels super watery? Like it's nut light. You know, when you drink a diet soda, that shit don't hit like that. Diet Coke is fire, but I understand what you stand. Lemonade with no fucking shit. You think Diet Coke fire is regular Coke? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:24:15 So you can have like gluten-free nut. I don't drink. I don't want that. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I do it if it take the way that tired of it. Every time I'm not, I ready to go to sleep.
Starting point is 01:24:24 So if it keeps that extra sleepiness in me because it keeps the kids in me, you know what I'm saying? It keeps the kids, right? Because the kids don't go out. That's true. No, I don't know. Where did the kids go? Like, in your stomach?
Starting point is 01:24:38 No, I think they just stay in your balls. Really? Fuck. You got to be careful with that. You might nut, and then them kids, like, just start backing up in you. And then when you fought, you start hearing, Daddy. You where the fucking kids go for real, though, man, damn. I have no idea.
Starting point is 01:24:54 They just sitting in your fucking balls this whole time. They miss their ride. They miss their butts to school. Yeah, actually, I do not know. I really don't know what happens. Like, they miss their butt. And that first time that you nut again, if you get it put back together, are the sperm, like, super old? I have no.
Starting point is 01:25:11 They're old as hell going to school. Big. Right? Like, yo. Because all you're doing is cutting a lot. All you doing is cutting the pathway. You're cutting the pathway. There's got to be a detour somewhere.
Starting point is 01:25:20 Where do you think? You start nothing out of your ass. Ooh, that'd be wild, bro. Yo, that'd be fucked up. You jerking off. You just like, ugh. And then your shit just starts squirt out your ass, right? Yo, that is super wild.

Starting point is 01:26:09 a neurological condition that causes an uncontrollable urge to move the legs. people who have RLS constantly feel the need to walk run a stretch, but people with restless anal syndrome might feel a constant bowel movement. I thought that shit was called diarrhea. Yeah. Yeah, that's what I said?
Starting point is 01:26:23 I had that shit a couple of weeks ago. You look concerned, Jones. I might have RAS. I might have RAS. You do shit a lot, yo. I knew Andrew was a different type of person when I saw him. Andrew sat in the gas station toilet, Joe. I said, this motherfucker different.

Starting point is 01:28:41 Oh, let's do some asking idiots. Yeah, where they at? Where they at? Oh, my God. I'm an island boy. Let's do three Askinson idiots and get out of here, man. Mr. Manky sales, was there ever a time in your career that you happened to meet the right person at the right time, which then steered you onto the path to success you are on now,
Starting point is 01:29:06 do you keep up with them, or were you able to thank them? Hmm. I have a lot of those. Go. I mean, it's a bunch. I mean, I can go all the way back to Charleston, South Carolina with my man Ron White, who first person to put me on radio. I can go back before that to my man, Hodji Jenkins, who hired me in the promotions
Starting point is 01:29:26 department that got me in the radio. I can talk about Big George, George Cook. You know, my guy, one of my mentors, he's in Dallas at K-104. First person in radio to give me a full-time gig. My man, Mike Love, he was at the big DM in Columbia, South Carolina, put me on in California. Columbia. Chris Conners put me on a Hot 1039. Alroy Smith in Philadelphia. Wendy and Kevin, of course. Cadillac Jack G. Spin. Chris McCarthy with television, Paul Richie, you know. Colbert coming on as an EP. I got so many of those. I guess it's just, I got, I got a million
Starting point is 01:30:04 of those. Yeah. A million. Yeah. I think the more success that you have in your career, the more gratitude you have for people like that. A hundred percent. People like you. Duval because, you know, there were different times we create these entities, you know what I mean, that help us all. Like, you've been doing brilliant needs for eight years. Yeah. Oh, wow. Nine years.
Starting point is 01:30:27 It's having a figure business now. It's crazy. It's really crazy. Yeah. You know what I mean? It's like, I don't fucking know. Like I guess a million. I never, I never take any of that for granted.
Starting point is 01:30:37 I feel like you meet people, even people that you meet that give you words, like when they See, like Will Smith was on Breakfast Club last year, and he's, Woolsmith said, y'all read your book. He said, I see the real you poking through. He said, I see Leonard fighting through the Shaliman. He's like, I want you to know that Leonard is enough. You're enough. You don't need that character to protect you anymore.
Starting point is 01:30:58 Like little things like that. Like those words like, oh shit, how are you seeing through me like that? You know what I mean? It's uncomfortable. But what are you doing when you're uncomfortable? You're growing. So I got, man, I got so many people like that that is, it's un I know I probably even forgot people
Starting point is 01:31:13 because I don't forget nothing Tessa Spencer you know like people that just told you things like Tessa just told me I was dope in radio when I was a young motivation that's it young guy on the radio
Starting point is 01:31:27 and Charlottesockeland just told me yo you're really good like little stuff like that so it's a man I mean I got a million people like that it is crazy man you gotta have those no so many but like I can remember even like the
Starting point is 01:31:38 it'll just be like a person at a show we'll say something after a show. Right up. And it could be like the lowest point in my career. You don't even know it. And then that person could just be like, I really thought that you were great tonight. And I'm so happy.
Starting point is 01:31:59 You said only four people, right? This guy, man. This guy, really. He's really Travis Porter, you know. Bring it back. Bring it back. Wasn't that Travis Port? Bring it back.
Starting point is 01:32:16 All right. Good, God's here throwaway. Says, is fidelity the floor or the ceiling for mutually committed monogamy relationships are humans instinctively are as culture designed for monogamous relationships, necular families? True or false, demanding praise diminishes the accomplishment? I feel like two different things.
Starting point is 01:32:40 Is fidelity to floor and the ceiling from mutually committed monogamy relationships. I don't know if there has to be a floor ceiling. I think it's really just kind of like what you and your partner value inside, right? Because there are people who have relationships and they have multiple wives, right? They're like people who are in relationships and they're swingers. They also hook up with other people. So I think you set the value system for your relationship and then based on that value system,
Starting point is 01:33:07 you try to uphold those values. But I don't think floor ceiling. is decided all around. You know, this is an interesting conversation because I don't even think it's about monogamy. I think it's about being in a healthy relationship to where your partner is happy. So your point about, you know,
Starting point is 01:33:26 how some people have different arrangements, you know what I mean? If you're with a woman and that woman likes other women and she wants to sleep with other women and y'all sleep with other women together, that's what's the best thing for your relationship. That keeps your relationship happy. Vice versa with dudes, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:33:41 If a dude that likes dudes and your woman knows you likes dudes and y'all like sleeping with dudes together, that's on y'all. I think happiness is the key. So if monogamy is what makes your woman happy, like if you know going out to cheat on your woman is hurting your woman,
Starting point is 01:33:57 then by default, you're hurting your relationship and you're hurting yourself. It ain't worth it. So just do what is best for your relationship and you and your woman. It's just that simple. Yeah. You know?
Starting point is 01:34:13 I don't cheat because I don't want to hurt my wife. I don't want to hurt my family. Simple as that, you know? And I don't want to hurt myself. I feel like I get more done. I'm more productive when I'm, you know, zoned in on my wife, which I have. The only one energy is really so. It's amazing.
Starting point is 01:34:32 It's amazing. By the way, that's the, I don't know if you call it a test, but that's the thing, right? like being able to constantly find new ways to make you and your partner happy. Yeah. You know what I mean? Anybody can go get that quick dopamine hit when they go sleep with another woman.
Starting point is 01:34:50 But when you can keep things spicy with this one person over and over and always find new things for y'all to do and she finds new things for y'all to do. Like, that's growing with somebody is the illest thing. Yeah. And having friends around, I'm going to need different things that y'all doing.
Starting point is 01:35:06 I need to know what the fuck y'all doing because I'm running out of shit. Right. I just dinner dinner at the house and stuff like that when you got her face on it. I'm trying different things, but like, I'm going to run the fuck out. Like, what do y'all still? How do
Starting point is 01:35:19 y'all keep it going? Ah, I see. Yeah, I mean, that's the tricky part, but you got to do it. That masseuse, bro. The big diesel masseuse is this? No, okay, that's cut off. And then now, see, we less one. Stargazing 616. This is a good one to end on.
Starting point is 01:35:37 Charlotte, who do you think has more belief themselves, Andrew are wax. That's like Thanos versus Galactus, bro. That's that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, I don't know. I've never met two people who absolutely feel like they can do anything the way Andrew Shots and Herman, do do herm feel about themselves. That's not true. Have you met you? Huh? Have you met you? I'm the most insecure person.
Starting point is 01:36:06 Well, you're not doing a good job at it. Yeah. I always downplayed myself, so I don't see how they, I don't see how that is. I mean, I'm confident in what I'm confident in and when I'm not confident, I'll tell you. But Andrew could do everything. No, that's not true. I have tons of things that I'm insecure about and that I don't think I can do. You met yourself?
Starting point is 01:36:26 I can't, I can't not do heart surgery. And I can't lose. Exactly. You can not win a fight against somebody. It's just what it is. No, of course. I think you have to have delusional confidence because, like, if that's an advantage over somebody else
Starting point is 01:36:46 who's being realistic, then I'm going to have that. Yes. You know, like, I'm not going to go into these things being realistic. I'm always going to dream. Yes. Because if I get to 80% of my dream, that's probably 50% farther than a motherfucker who's being realistic. All day long.
Starting point is 01:36:58 Yeah, I think we, and I think in the entertainment business, we tend to sell ourselves short because it's like, what do we really do, guys? You know what I mean? Don't think too much. You think too much, then you'd be like, what's the point? Don't think too much. I told my boys the other day, I said, yo, I really love being dumb because if I was smart,
Starting point is 01:37:15 I know all the things, the reason why I shouldn't do it. I only know the reasons why I should do it. All the reasons, I'm so dumb about it. I just go straight forward and it just happened laying on my feet. God bless. Yeah. Everything I did, I took a chance at it.
Starting point is 01:37:27 It was really the first time I ever did it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I never did nothing before. So you're like, I don't want to overthink these things, because if I overthink them, then I probably never did it. I'm not that smart to fucking overthink. I just like, oh, yeah,
Starting point is 01:37:38 That way. That's a good way to be. The know it all knows nothing. You know what I mean? Like I always say, I'm not an expert at anything. I just got some experiences, that's all. Yeah, yeah. And I share my experiences, and I'm always willing to learn.
Starting point is 01:37:49 I'm a sponge. I'm curious. I always think somebody's, I always think somebody's doper than me, or doing something doper than me. The difference between me and a lot of other people, I don't get jealous and envious to that person. Yeah. I listen to that person.
Starting point is 01:38:04 Yeah. And I want to learn from that person. You know what I mean? And that person may want to learn from. for me. You know what I mean? And that'd be the ill shit, but it's just like, now, I'm dope. Yeah. I mean, that's why a lot of my other relationships is working here. You're good enough, Lenard. Good, you're good enough, Leonard. Let's go, Lenard. Radio, radio, yay.
Starting point is 01:38:27 Yeah, I mean, that's why. Make America Great. Wait, what was the song? I know he's going to do it. What was the song? I don't know I thought you've seen your therapist, man. You got to do this. You got to do this. A while, but you think therapy would fuck you up on tour right now?
Starting point is 01:38:43 No, actually, I think therapy's always helpful for me. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I love therapy. Not at first. Not at first. He's going to hit you up at first and then you finally realize that.
Starting point is 01:38:53 Healing hurts, guys. Yeah, but I've gone to therapy. Like, the first time I ever saw therapists was in third grade. Wow. So, like, there's never been a stigma to therapy. Now, some teacher was like, I think he's upset or troubled or something like that.
Starting point is 01:39:06 And so my parents were like, okay, they both see therapists. Oh, shit. That's dope. I think they might have brought them people to my class before. I definitely had those. But they used to do it different with me. It was, and they probably used to do the same thing with you wax. They make you take a test.
Starting point is 01:39:19 God is counselor. And then they'll ask you, like, do you hear voices? Oh, wow. You know what I mean? No, for real. They do all that. Do you hear voices? They thought we were crazy.
Starting point is 01:39:27 Y'all just needed therapy. Word up. Does this make you angry? Yes. Anger management classes. I went to scare street. I went through a bunch of programs on this side. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:39:35 And they're like, this is where he's going to go anyway. And that should have just been met the house. They didn't pay attention to us. It just been therapy. No, for real. I love the therapy stuff. I love it. I think it's great.
Starting point is 01:39:45 I think if I did go to therapy, I probably would have been a little bit better. I mean, you're going now, though. It's never too late. We got to stop acting like that. I'm glad that you're in therapy now. It's never too late. Like, you, it's the only difference is now you're unpacking 30-plus years of baggage.
Starting point is 01:39:56 I get it, but she didn't even make me cry. Yeah, just get through that initial part, man. You never make me cry. Brough, you'd be to go to therapy without your girl. explain things that you feel in a way that you can't articulate. No, it's lately been by myself. That's better. But me and her got couples there, but go by yourself and then get the ammo.
Starting point is 01:40:15 I'd get great ammunition from my therapist. When I back, you know, old girlfriends and shit like that, they'd give me all these, like, words and shit to, like, trick them up in arguments. Yeah. And it was just amazing. Like, oh, it was unbelievable. Like, because they've heard about all these arguments a thousand times. To manipulate people?
Starting point is 01:40:30 You fucking cycle back. Why you think you go to win, dog? I'm trying to win. That's all is about. Like, we either. The winners are losers in these arguments. Give me the tools. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:40:38 Yes. I don't want to win. I just want to be happy. That's winning. That's winning. Like, we are going to lose anyway, so just give us a little bit. You ever see the losers at the Super Bowl? I just want to be happy.
Starting point is 01:40:52 I don't think you got to win or lose in a relationship. Like, I just want you to hear me and I want to hear you. I hear you. Why are you doing this? Yes, of course. It sounds so good. No, no, no, no. You got to be on the same team.
Starting point is 01:41:06 Of course. That's right. I think there's a lot of guys who just bend over because their girl's upset about something and they just want to avoid the conflict. And I think, and a lot of times, that's not respecting that girl. Like, if the girl is doing something
Starting point is 01:41:17 that you think is wrong or disrespectful to you, you owe it to her if you respect to her to say that. You should tell her. Absolutely. Don't just go, okay, you're upset. I bend over. And if you do some fucked up shit and she calls you on it,
Starting point is 01:41:28 you've got to be accountable for your fucked up shit. Keep it real. But, yeah, I just don't believe with the, I don't think it's a healthy relationship if you can't ever call your partner out on anything. No, I think you should be able to call your partner on stuff,
Starting point is 01:41:39 but I just don't, I don't have to win in argument. Yeah. When you're arguing, it's just like, what do you even arguing about? That's the other thing. Sometimes take a step back and be like, what the fuck we even arguing about? Don't even know. You know what I mean? You arguing because you got lie with me.
Starting point is 01:41:53 Yeah. But therapy is great. My girl hits me with that one. That was fucking genius, bro. She'd be like, when we started doing it, like, in the middle, she's just cut it off and be like, don't be rude. And it's like, now we're arguing over being rude or not. We're not even arguing over to be over to talk.
Starting point is 01:42:07 other shit that we were saying. Yeah. Like, oh, it's fucking great. That's great. Therapy is great, man. Everybody should go to therapy. That's everybody's entry point to healing I'm seeing. And I want to, I want to end this by saying,
Starting point is 01:42:20 happy heavenly born day to Jasmine Waters. Hey, yo. Jazz fly. Because, you know, we put this podcast out on. Thursday, right? Today, Wednesday. Yeah, so it'll be the 21st. Jazz would have been 41 today.

And she said, why she's still wearing your clothes like a hug? Yo, Jazz, I just want to say on behalf of all of us, you got so many cooler things to do in heaven than just hang out looking at us. Like, you got so much cool. Like, Charlam is so arrogant.
Starting point is 01:43:22 He thinks that you're spending your time watching him and fucking Bushwick, Brooklyn, when you could be anywhere. She is laughing. I'm laughing. I'm dead. I'm not joking. No, I believe it. Do Jazz, can you buy me some new clothes?
Starting point is 01:43:34 Just bring them to me or something? Just go get them somewhere and bring them to me. She knows my size better than me. She said, stay fly. She said, keep the faith and stay fly. That's what I've been doing. That's all I know how to do is. Stay dumb.
Starting point is 01:43:44 That's what's what. But look at his hat says. What does his hat say? What does his hat say? It says, keep the face and stay fly. That's beautiful. Now, jazz. Jazz, yes, jazz.
