Now let's start the show. Hezzy is here. Welcome back, bro. Man, needed that. Needed that eight days of vacation. How long does it take you to settle into relaxation? Immediately. My wife said that shit all the time.

My wife says as soon as you get on vacation, get the way you going, everything stops. And that's a fact. I looked at my call. Look at my call log. This is my call log. I hadn't even paid it's no attention to this morning. This is my call log. All miss calls.

All right. I don't fuck with my phone. No, nothing. Like, literally. Like, I'm just, I'm done, especially when I, and I haven't been to Anguilla in two and a half years off. Oh, that's right. Because of COVID. Last time I was in Anguilla, Duval was with me.

That's in December of 2019 going into 2020. Yeah. Yeah. So right before COVID was the last time I've been in Anguilla. I didn't even realize I hadn't been there in two and a half years. And I was just like, oh, my God. Oh. Like, I really love Anguilla.

Like, I'm going to die in Anguilola. Really? Yes. When I'm, when I'm like 90-something years old, it's just going to be whatever social media platform is out at the time or whatever it is, probably just be holograms that pop up. It's going to be just a hologram that pop up that says radio personality, multimedia personality, Charlamagne de God dies at 90 years old.

I might say civil rights activists based off the show. show Bust Down on NBC. You've seen a show Bust down on NBC PC? Yeah, they said, they said, history might remember me as a civil rights leader.

But it was a joke. Oh, okay. That's how fucked up the world is, man. Ah, I was like, did I miss something? Maybe mental rights, but I should insert that. Insert that clip.

Hey, look, all I'm saying is, if I'm being honest, we're fuck. Well, fuck. You know, at this point, history is going to remember a show the man

that God as a civil race leader. It's tragic, really. I mean, come on, people. Read a book. But yeah, they said that it might remember me. But whatever it is, I'm going to die in Anguilla at 90-something years old. I already see it. And what is it about Anguilla?

Man, you can really feel God there, yo. Okay. I'm not even joking when I say that. Like, I feel God there, yo. And I can breathe under the water. Oh, God. Here we go. It's like you start with some shit that's believable and, like, relatable.

And then you go into your, like, werewolf thing. I can breathe underwater in the air. I'm not saying everybody can. I just realized this week that I can't. Yeah. I can breathe underwater. Is this why they think black people can't swim is because you guys are trying to bleed underwater?

Like, are you just trying to spread the stereotype? There's going to be so many black people that are going to Anguilah. Like, now you just start breathing. I didn't say it for everybody. It's just something I realized. Yeah, yeah. How did you realize it? Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Break that down for you, please. I'm in the water, right? Like, I go in the water early in the morning and I love to be in the water and looking up at the sun, right? I like to be looking up with the sun. I feel like when I pray from the water to the sun, it's like a direct connection to God. Okay. And I believe in like grounding when you take your shoes off and like you're walking around the yard, you're grounding. There's no better grounding than having your feet at the bottom of the ocean and looking up at the sun and praying. And so it was just one of those things where I had like three or four rum punches and I was like, why do people

come up for air? So I just went down there. Okay. And I literally was just sitting there for a while. And then I was just like, oh shit, I can't breathe hunting this motherfucker, yo. You don't realize how many black people are going to die because of this stuff. You don't realize it. It's going to happen and it's going to be your fault. And they're going to have tweets like, yo, I'm going to try that show all the shit. So Aquaman ain't never killed no white people? Aquaman's white, bro.

I don't know. I didn't say white people could not breathe underwater. Maybe he's Hawaiian, you know, whatever it is. Shout to Jason Mawa. But I'm just saying this is not good. This is not good. It's not for everybody. I'm just telling you that I can breathe underwater.

Tell her just said, how long do you think you can breathe underwater for? I was down there for like 35 minutes. Oh. Oh. Yeah. Shut. What?

I had my watch on. I know. I had my fucking, have my underwater watch on. I was down there for 35 minutes, yo. You're underwater watching. I was done there for 35 minutes cooling, like, like, Like, it was a thing.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Really, people were going by snorkeling and they was just like waving. Yeah, yeah, that's what's up, bro. Just letting you know. That's fire. Are you selling any glasses that are unbreakable? I can see underwater, too. Well, yeah, yeah, yeah.

A lot of people are scared to do that because they think the salt water burns their eyes. Salt water don't burn my eyes. Interesting. Salt water doesn't burn my eyes. I can breathe underwater. I can stay under the water for a long time and my skin don't get wrinkly. Oh, wow. Maybe that's where you're supposed to be.

I might be some type of amphibian. Amphibian, Merman. Yeah. I might be Kinden to Namor. I don't know. Kinda Namor. Namor. What is that?

Oh, man, Namor the submarine. You don't know Namor? No. Oh, you're not a comic book guy. You know Namor, right, Alex? A little bit. Everybody will know Namar after Black Panther 2 comes out. He's the antagonist and Black Panther, too.

But how was your week? Wait, antagonist. Antagonus and Black Panther is the water? The only thing that's a body of water is a body of water taller than six feet Oh Oh

Oh man Marble don't give a fuck Marble is wilding, bro. Marvel did I give all the fuck. God damn. They've been hitting that name all, though. They've been hitting at them since. Oh, shit.

Well, actually, since. What's the new antagonist in Shang Chi? Is it driving a car street? Is that the new antagonist? Is that the new antagonist? Oh, my God. Oh, man. You got to check out that new Captain Marvel movie.

What's the antagonist of Captain Marvel? Letting it go. Have you? Have you? Did you see that one? All you got to do is get into an argument with Captain Marvel. Why don't we talk about what you did a thousand years ago? Oh, my God.

That's how you distracted. Hey, why I'm talking about what you did in three galaxies away a thousand years ago? Oh, my God. Yeah, bro. See, that's Namor right there. He got the Ho Chi Daddy shorts on. That shit is crazy. No, that's Namor.

Nymour got the Hoochie Daddy shorts on. We got to go into the water and fight him. I ain't going on in the water. The Submariner. You know what's so funny? You know what's so fucking funny about this and I never thought about it? In end game, there's a scene. Remember when everybody's up as a hologram?

And the guy says that she goes, there was an earthquake. There was an earthquake underwater off the coast of Wakanda or whatever. And the young lady from the Dora Mollage, they asked her what she going to do about it. And she goes, nothing. It's an earthquake underwater. We leave it alone. She didn't want no parts of it.

She knew. But that was an Easter egg for Namor. Yeah, that was East Egg for Namor. And I think it was Iron Man 2. An Iron Man 2, Iron Man is looking at a map of like different superheroes across the country. And you see like a dot in the middle of the middle of. the ocean. So that was supposed to be Atlantis because you know, that's where

Namor. He's the king of Atlantis. You never heard of underwater world Atlantis? Yeah, Hab, what's the deal with that? Like, where was Atlantis? I'm hearing all these different, like, there's something under there, bro. You truly believe that now it's covered by water? It makes no sense for the earth to be 75% water

and something's not going on down there, bro. Oh, you think it's still there? I think it's, I believe in mermaids. I believe in mermaids. I believe in Atlanta's, I believe in all of that shit. You might be a mermaid, dude. I think so. I'm telling you, after what I witnessed this week,

me breathing underwater? I mean, that is mermaid behavior, for sure. That is definitely mermaid. Right? I identify as a mermaid. You do. Yes. And you should be able to.

That's right. You don't even have to identify as it. Like, you can breathe underwater. You're a mermaid. That's right. And I came to the conclusion this week that my... Can I call you a mermaggot? Mermaggot.

I can't think of... Merv. maggot is wild. Merm maggot. Listen, I came to the conclusion this week that my pronoun, we all should have pronouns, bro. Damn, bro, you ain't gonna, you ain't gonna even chew that fish? You're just gonna swallow it old mermaggot.

Yeah. You know the wildest thing is a glizzy, bro. Why did they call hot dogs glizzy, bro? I don't know where that started, yo. Me neither. When I was a kid, we didn't call them glitz. Hell no. That shit sounds disgusting.

Like, glizzy gobbler? Like that shit is brats you should be a slur, bro. Like, you should be able to just to be out here telling people they're putting glizzies in their mouth, bro. That's wild. Y'all don't think that's wild? It is wild. It is wild. I don't know when it started.

It's like Snoop saying gay, like back in the day, like gizzle. Like, you know what I'm saying? Gizzle was gay? No, but that's how Snoop would have said it back in the day. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It'd have been like, you glizzle? You glizzle? You glizzle?

I can't even. But, dude, a glizzy gobbler is crazy. Wow. Yeah, that's crazy. You're a different kind of glizzy. If you, you're a glizzy gobler? Like, why? You can't even eat a hot dog in peace without somebody saying.

What you're doing, putting that glizzy in your mouth? There's a video. It looks like they were feeding glizzies to this special needs, dude, in Coney Island. Did you see the side talk video when they were out in Coney Island? Bro, in my head. One in each hand. And they just feeding him a glissy at the same. That's wild, man.

It was crazy. I seen the video where the dude had the hot dog and like the hot dog was so long it was hanging out the bun. Yeah. He goes, and right before he bites and you hear somebody go, hey, yo! And he stops and he gets so fucking mad. You might as well just called him a slur because he got so mad. He was like, yo, you're going to put that whole glizzy in your mouth. The dude was like, oh, the fuck, I can't just eat it.

The other pussy and beef. My favorite one is dude sneaks up on his boy who's about to eat it and he just goes, hey, yo, and dude just goes

fucking throws that. Yo! Hey, yo! This man, you got the guizzy. You glizzy got one? He just,

he chucks that shit, buddy. Glyzy, glizzy is wild. And for nobody in New York to be pausing that, Jesus. No,

that's a super pause. How would you eat the whole? I just want to know how your week was, man. No hot dogs. I didn't take any hot dogs down. No, my meat, my meat. My meat was good. My meat was good.

Had a good meat. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, y'all are crazy, bro. You all are fucking crazy. Where the glizzy gobblers at, bro? What a glizzy goblers at, Joe. The zeman gobbler's bro. The semen demon.

This girl called herself a semen demon, bro. What? No. Man, this girl was crazy, bro. But she liked to drink semen? I guess. Yeah, yeah. That's what glizzy goblin sounds like.

Yeah. Glizzy goblin sounds like somebody who likes to drink semen, bro. That's the girl who slurped up the suns, the Phoenix Sun. Do you remember that girl? She kind of went viral for that shit. But she called herself the seaman demon. Like, how did somebody find out you sucked off a whole team? I think she said it.

Really? Yeah. No, but she said it. She was like, yeah, yeah, yeah. But what if she didn't really suck off the whole team? What if she sucked off like four or five of them? But then it's a whole bitch. That's like, we didn't get nothing, no head.

And now they're getting in trouble at home. I thought you said, bitch. A whole bench. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I had the fact is bad. Yeah, yeah. Listen, did you see, there's so much shit that happened over the week, man, that I was thinking about. And I was like, did you see the woman who was pregnant in Texas?

She's 34 weeks. This is fire. This is fire. I love this. I love it, too. 34 weeks. The brain is fully developed. The baby's in there chilling.

You know what I'm saying? The glissies growing. You know what I mean? And she got pulled over by the police because she was in the Hoveling. Now, mind you, I didn't know what Hovelings were until I moved to New York. And when I moved in New York in 2006, I thought Jay Z had his all goddamn length. I'm not going to lie.

I was like, yo, this guy is really the king in New York. And at first I thought that, then I thought this meant where he must have got HOV from, but no, it was short for Jay Hogher. But this woman got pulled over by the police. Is that the woman? Yes, 34 weeks break. I'm not, I'm a piece, bro.

I mean, come on, she got her club shot up. Of course. She got a club shot? She got her club shot up. And she says, she says her unborn baby should count as the second person. If you know anything about Hovelings, it got to be you and another person in the car for you to get through a Hoveling. What did she do wrong?

Yo, because she got a ticket. She got cited for this. He starts peeking around. He's like, is it just you? And I said, no, there's two of us. And he's like, well, where's the other person? And I went right here. I said, well, not trying to throw a political mix here, but with everything going on, this counts as a baby.

I really don't feel like it's right. because one law is saying it one way, but then another law is saying it another way. This is what I love. Okay. I love this like mental gymnastics that people are going to play now where it's just like if it's a baby. Yes.

Then that counts as another person. Yes. And you should be able to drive in the HOV lane. I agree. Simple is that. Simple. Don't tell me that that doesn't count. That's right.

When you're in, when you're on the highway, but it counts everywhere else in life. That's right. I think she needs to, I think not only should, she not pay a ticket. She needs an apology from the city if the city is mandating that rule. I think Texas is one of the states is trying to...

One of the biggest. Okay. And the officer told her that, no, this rule means that the person has to be out of your body in the seat. I know that's not in the fine print. That's not in the fine print. Show me where it says the person has to be out of your body. Why should it make a difference? It shouldn't make a fucking difference.

What do we say when a woman is pregnant? She's with child. She's with child. So if you're with a child, boom, you get to drive in the fucking home. Yeah, I don't get that at all. What is the difference if the baby's in the seat next door or if it's in your belly? I have no idea. We say it all we say.

And if you kill a pregnant woman, you get double homicide. I don't know if that's true. I don't know if it's true either, but I've heard it enough to repeat it. I've heard it enough. I'm assuming these people know what they talk about when they say this. You should, bro. Look that up, Taylor. Can you look that up?

Double homicide. Yeah. Even the way you say that shit is glizzy goblin, bro. Too glissies, okay? Yeah, now, I love that she did this shit. And it's true. If life begins an inception, and if I'm a girl. Taylor's wild, bro.

What does she do? No. What did she even try to Google? I got to know what she tried to do. She googled double homicide. No. Which, it's the unlawful killing to more people. If you kill a woman that's pregnant, does it count as double homicide?

Yes. If you kill a woman that's pregnant. Because I heard it did. And I heard it enough to, that I believe it because that sounds fair. Yo. Right?

If it's a life, Phil, decide. If it's a life, then you killed two people. They say life starts our justation. What is justation? Justin people's new album that's coming up.

I don't know. Isn't it just station? Stop. Stop it now. You're going to ball now. What is justification? You just said it, bro. You just said it.

You just said it, bro. Stop acting like you're underwater, bro. You're not underwater anymore. You're just with us regular people now. You stop acting crazy right now, okay? Oh, say this shit. Gestation? That's what you're saying, gestation.

Isn't it? Now Taylor's reading legal documents. Taylor, unborn victims of violence. Taylor, just go back on TikTok. Taylor, then when we need you, we're going to let you know and then we'll bring you back into the podcast. Just go back on TikTok, okay? I don't even know what to tell Taylor at this point.

It's okay. It's okay. It's one of the things that you move on. It's when we move on. Well, if it's true, if it's true that, you know, when you kill a pregnant woman, you get charged with double homicide, then that woman who's pregnant

should be able to drive through the whole lane. If you're saying a baby is a life, yes. And a woman is carrying a baby. And that baby is completely independent from her. That's what the argument is. I agree. Hey, don't punish the baby.

Yes. It's a baby. It has nothing to do with the mother. Those are separate lives. That's right. Every woman is pregnant should be able to drive in the HOV lane and even if you're not pregnant,

that's right. Driving that shit anyway and just say you are if they pull you over and then what they're going to do, they're going to give you a pregnancy test right there? And what kind of dickhead is, she's 34 weeks. She can see she's showing.

The brain is fully developed in a baby at 34 weeks. Absolutely. Baby's dream at 34 weeks. And the bosoms was full, too. I'm sure they were. And what kind of dickhead are you as a police officer to give that woman a ticket? Right? She's pregnant.

Just let her go. And you got to give her an e-for-effing. Like, you know what? That was good. That's fire. That was good. No, that was good. Go ahead.

Somebody else might not be so nice to you. No, that was good. I've fucked with that. And I'm going to tell another double-stander thing that happened. And it happened in Jacksonville, Florida. I want you to add this to a tailor. Because this, I truly believe this guy is being unjustly punished. This is this dude named Jeremy Nix.

Jeremy Nix. I don't know if you've seen this video, but Jeremy Nix got charged with animal cruelty. Oh, yeah, yeah, this is interesting. Because his neighbor's rooster, his neighbor's cock attacked him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so he hit the cock in the head and accidentally killed the cock. Now his neck, flares up.

And he's doing his thing, and he's trying to jump up at me. So I pick up a stick in the yard, and I try to hit it, but the chicken's jumping up at me, and I accidentally knocked it in the head. I didn't know how to give it a 21-gun salute, CPR, mouth-to-mouth, you know, or call the chicken ambulance. You know, I was feared for my safety, and the chicken died. The chickens are dying everyday people at churches, Popeye's, and Kentucky Fried Chicken. Really?

This thing is, like, number one, then fucking cock was attacking me. Yeah. Number two, chickens die every day, B. Every day. Pop-I's, KFC, fucking churches. So my thing is, if you're not going to punish, and forget the, we don't even got to go to the restaurants.

Have you ever seen a chicken factory, bro? Have you ever seen when they farm these chickens on these factories, the cruel and unusual punishment? Bro, we used to chase Cox. I used to chase Cox with my grandma, bro. And we used to chase after these roosters. And when we would catch these cocks, we would grab them by their necks and how Petey probably used to do that shit. Yeah, yeah.

That's what we used to do with the chicken, break the chicken's neck. All in the name of food. We never got charged in animal cruelty. Yeah. These fucking farms and these factories that are killing billions of chickens a fucking year don't get charged with animal cruelty. So why is this guy? Hmm. I think you make a good argument right there.

Is there something about like it's that person's property and you've destroyed that person's property? well watch your fucking cock And wait Was that cock On the neighbor's property? Yes he said he was being attacked by the cock He said the cock got big And the cock like

Just looked ferocious So he got scared He grabbed his stick and hit the cock I mean if your cock is on my lawn I gotta defend myself I'm gonna beat it down You should Yeah

And he hit it right on the head I mean I'm gonna hit at the head I'm gonna grab the body I'm gonna do anything I can Do what you gotta do Take that cock down Eat the fuck down eat the fucking cock.

And by the way, when you kill the cock, what you do with the meat? I mean, you have to devour it. That's the only thing to do with the meat in your mouth. Yeah.

Like, what else you don't do with the cock? I agree with you, dude. You don't want to put you on it to waste, right? I'm just tired of hypocrisy in this world. Yeah, me too, dude. There's no consistency.

Yeah, we be consistent. Everything is a fucking contradiction. If I kill billions of cocks a year for food, How can I charge this man with animal cruelty? And I'm going to go to Wendy's lady and get a spicy chicken sandwich. Honestly, the animal was being cruel. The animal's guilty of cruelty. Not the person.

Yeah, you're right. I mean, it's in Florida, right? He's standing his ground. If that was a pit bull that was attacking him and then he hit it, nobody would care. True. True. It seems to be an innocent cock, but not all cocks are innocent. Not all cocks are innocent.

Not all cocks of you. Like you said, some cocks are ferocious. Right. Some cocks are fucking delicious, too. Yeah, they are. Most of them. All of them. Most of the cocks I've had. Fucking tastes good, bro. Cocks are amazing. No, they are. Every, yo, if you've ever eaten a spicy chicken sandwich from Wendy's,

you've ever eaten chick filet, bow jangles, pop-eyes, you've eaten the cock. Can I ask you? Have you ever been about to order something? You're at Chick-fil-A, and they're like, you get the tenders. And they're like, you want three? And you're like, no. I want more cocks, bro. Like, get me motherfucking six. Yeah, like, I need six cars. I'm like twice the amount of cocks if it's possible.

Yes, man. So, yeah, no, that's crazy. I scared to shit out my six-year-old, too, because we was in Anguilla. And we was at this beat shack called Blanchets. And, you know, chickens were roaming around, right? Yeah. Chickens and their little kids. And I go, those chickens want to talk to you because they want to know why you keep eating

their family members. And she looked so concerned. She was like, I'm never eating chicken again. It was like it dawned on her like, this is what we're eating? Yeah. These cute little things that are walking around. My 14, yo, she's like, I say, yo. Pull up then.

That's right. My 14 yo was like, yes. I'm still hungry. I'm still hungry. Exactly. That's funny as hell. Chickens die every day. Chickens die every day.

It's the truth. It does remind me of like the marijuana laws, though, though. What you mean? Because it's like they're making marijuana. legal throughout the country, whether it's medicinal or recreational, but then they still got people in jail for marijuana. And in some places, they're still giving you charges for marijuana. It just seems stupid. Okay, so that, I feel two ways about this. One, I'm like, this is the worst thing possible that the same politicians that are putting or enacting laws and putting

people behind bars are now profiting off of, yes. By profit, I mean, like, these, these marijuana companies are paying them. Yes. Not paying them, but like campaign donations or however the fuck you like bribe politicians. On the other hand, you're in jail because you did something illegal. It was illegal at the time. And I guess you think if the laws change over time, it just makes more, if you give somebody life. Yeah. With something that was illegal.

That's crazy. And then you make it legal during their life. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Comitition should be like, yeah, they serve their time. So once the law changes. I would think. Now, does it work the other way? When something becomes illegal, all the people that we've known have done in the past, do we then punish them?

What has been happening to us for the past five years? Go. Because of my speech. What do you mean? What do you mean? They've been doing that to us for how long? Okay, now let me do another one. They make abortion illegal.

Do they come collect? They got the names. Did they start knocking on the door? Yeah. Yo, you remember in 2000? They would have been 22 right now. Whoa. Right.

It's so tricky, right? It is. It is. I think it's discussing you can make something legal and then make money. Literally, the state is charging taxes. Let's say the state was like, we don't want any money from this because we've put people in prison for this. So we're not going to take any money.

We're going to look the other way. You guys do your thing. That'd be one thing. That'd be incredible. But if the state is profiting, I agree. And you got people in jail for it, that's crazy. I agree. I agree.

I agree wholeheartedly. And I don't like it the other way around, by the way. Yeah, you want to be punished for all this shit? That's the analogy I use about speeding tickets. Like, if you're driving on a highway, that was 55, right? It was 55, or no, it was 85, 20 years ago. So you're doing 85. And then 20 years later, it gets reduced to 55.

If you started getting speeding tickets in the mail from 20 years ago, You'd be like, what the fuck is going on? No, this was fine back then. That's my point. I don't like it the other way. But if you're already in jail for something and they make it fucking legal, you got to let them out. Yes.

Every state that's legalized marijuana, y'all give people 20, 30 years for weed, you've got to let them out. Yeah. Come on. I think so. Come on. Even though they did break a rule and you do get punished for breaking rules. But if that rule also changes, you're basically saying,

hey, that shouldn't have been a punishable rule back the day. It's like you're correcting your shit. Yeah. You know? Like, if someone. somebody was in jail for, like, there was, like, racist laws. And let's say somebody broke one of those laws that were racist. Once that racist law goes away, you've got to let all those people out of prison

because they were punished for an immoral law. I would think so. I mean, it's all weird. Like, even the animal cruelty charge, I think that's going to get dropped. The HOV ticket, I think that's going to get dropped. But it's crazy that people even have to go to court for these things. Yeah. You know what I'm saying?

Yeah, that's the biggest. I just want, all I want across the board is concerned. I want it from everybody. I want the media to be consistent. You're going to be miserable, my friend, hoping you get that. Because I'm watching Hunter Biden snorting boldness. And nobody's talking about it. Go.

I fuck with him. Go. That makes the whole Biden family relatable. Go. Why does he hate his dad so much? That's what we need to figure out. Pressure. Pressure.

I thought about this. I thought about this on a plane ride home yesterday as I was reading up on it. Because that is how to, like, the only reason you would record that interaction is on some like subconscious level you want to get caught and you know, I know, I know. I'm saying it's like you know getting caught hurts the people in your family, specifically your father. Yeah. Right. Like this is a, it's not a cry for help. It's a cry for fuck you, dad. Yeah, I read some excerpts out of his, the daughter's book. I forgot the daughter's name. It's the one that they caught in his email. He caught her the, the, the, the, the, the, the

word that rhymes with pun. But she said, Who called her that? Hunter called his sister that. And you don't say that word? No, I don't say it. I'm practicing bad habits. And she said in the book that basically he kind of like jocated about politics more than them. Yeah. So everything was about appearances. You know what I mean? So I guess Hunter's like, I ain't no motherfucking politician. I like this fucking these drugs and I like these hoars. And this is what I want to do in my life. Basically, I want to live out loud the way y'all do in Washington on the low.

You know what I mean? So I just think, I think it's rebellion against that. I really think it's just rebellion against that type of pressure, having to live up to being. I mean, come on. Say what you want, Joe Biden. I mean, I don't know how you measure success as a politician, but he's got to be one of the most successful politicians of all time, right? I mean, he became president. There's only 46 of them.

Damn, I forgot about that. I was thinking about everything up. Yeah, that's it. That's it. The president thing. It's hard. Is it really that hard to do? Yes, bro.

Yes. Yes, bro. That shit is fucking hard. He's ran three times. It's not hard. It's not hard for the winners. I was watching Obama doc on HBO. Seemed easy.

Obama got it the first time out the gate. Yeah, it was. Obama knocked it out the park. First time out the gate. Yeah, he was nice with it, though. And didn't have a lot of experience. Yeah, but he was nice. Hillary, think about all experience Hillary had, all experience your Biden had.

She's awful, though. She's just an awful person. That's my point. And so unlikable. There's nothing you can do about that. Like some people are just so unlikable. Like you look at her and you're like, ugh. No, you got, if you watch the Obama doc, you're like, wow.

If you watch the Obama doc, it's really like night and day. Yeah. Because even though Obama is a politician, like he's a politician true and true, he knew how to not be one. Yeah. Yeah. Like there was one scene where like he's riding in the back of the car and it seems so stereotypical now. But the guy that the guy goes, yeah, you know, a lot of people say you're not black enough. And he goes, well, you know, when I'm walking through, you know, these neighborhoods, like in the south side of Chicago, first buzzword.

Oh, south side of Chicago. He's like, and I go into barbershops. Oh. And, you know, and I'm out just playing basketball. I'm like, that shit sounds so stereotypical. But in the moment, it sounded like just human and real. Yeah, exactly. Whether it was or not, I don't know.

I'm sure it was. Because they actually cut to a scene of his barber the very next, you know, whatever the fuck. call it in TV television world. And the barber was like, yeah, the guy asked me, is Brocko, does Brocko, do I cut his hair to look like a white man? And I got offended. He's like, what the fuck does that mean? That's what the barber said.

So it's like when you see that compared to like Hillary at the time, just being robotic, politician, talking about the issue. Lizard, yeah. It's like, people don't, people don't care about it. Hillary don't got it. She don't got it. I love Hillary, though.

I like Hillary. Fair, but she doesn't have the intangible thing that Obama has that Bill Clinton has. Say what you want about Bill Clinton, but that motherfucker is charismatic and charming. Everything is a story. Playing the saxophone on goddamn Arsenio. You know what to do? And they said Bill never forgets the name. Oh, yeah.

Never forgets the name. And I mean, even watch him on like, you can watch him on like Jimmy Kimmel or any of these like late night shows. He's incredible on the late night shows. Because every question, he ties a story into it. funny quips. He's like witty, et cetera. It's like Hillary's just, like you said, so planned, so robotic, I need power. How can I get power? And crazy part

is Hillary's not like that when you just catch her cooling. Right. You know? And Bill is always on. Yeah. It's about that life. I saw Bill. I remember seeing Bill at Tyler Perry Studios, man. He was shaking my wife's hand a little too long. I said to Bill.

I said, you're shaking my wife's hand a little too long. Bill goes, well, you know, Sean. man, you'd have had something to worry about 30 years ago. No, he didn't. No, he goes, I'm harmless now. No, he didn't. No, he did. No, he did.

Listen, it was a joke, but it was hilarious. You laughed your ass off at that. How do you not laugh at that? No, he's the best. You know what I'm saying? He's the best. And don't twist that to anything crazy. It's just, how do you not laugh at that?

No, I mean, this is the most hilarious thing. What? The fact that he just said it. Oh, and he did like he wiped his mouth. He smelled his hand. He looked at a lot. He's not. He's not.

He said, he goes, I'm in the move for glizzies. He said, back in the day, your wife would have got this glissy. I'm just saying, bro. You know, you know it's crazy? My grandfather said that to my father after meeting my mom. What? He was like, he goes, Larry, literally. He goes, Larry, you know, if I was 30 years younger, you wouldn't have a chance with this one.

That's what I'm saying. That's an OG joke. What's an old comic joke? It's a compliment. Yeah, but what's a old street joke? Yes, that's an old street joke. Like, older people will say, are you had 30 years ago? Yeah, they do that.

That's your way of saying, hey, your wife is beautiful. That's all they're simply saying. That's all. She can get this glizzy. What? What? What? What, Taylor?

Come on. Can't imagine. Bill Clinton wrapped in a bun. No, now I'll tell the thing about the glizzy. She's like, damn, I can't even eat a hot dog no more. She was like, I can never order a hot dog off the street anymore ever. Again. Should we do this now?

To pay a bill for us. Let's pay a bill. Let's pay a bill and come back and talk about Miss Macy Gray. Hennessy, man, Hennessy, man. Salute to Hennessy, man. Got nothing but love for Hennessy.

Hey, man. Big church announcement. This is the thing I've been waiting to talk to you guys about.

But obviously the special is coming out this Sunday. Infamous. I am selling it through my website. There's a two-week window where you can buy it. But this Sunday I want everybody to watch it. First Comedy, pay-per-view event. Go get it. And you will be able to have it forever.

We're going to send everybody who buys it a link. So you'll be able to have your copy of it forever. But yeah, infamous. This has been a bit. a big deal, big deal for me. I know this took a while to get out, but there was, basically what happened was, it was with a streamer and the streamer wanted to edit jokes and, uh, I was, I'm done with the editing jokes, man. I made it here because I never had notes on my stand-up. So I'm not going to change that now. You know, I put my stand-up on YouTube and Instagram and all these places and

the people really appreciate it. I think they appreciated it was authentic. I think they would appreciate it was real. And I'm not going to start watering it down now that I have this moment. So I was a fortunate enough where I could buy back my special. And now I'm selling it directly to people. First of all, you know, I've always had tremendous respect for you. But I, that to me is like the most gangster shit you've ever done. Thank you. Career-wise.

Thank you. Because it takes a lot to drop your nuts on any of these platforms. You know what I'm saying? Like, whatever the screaming platform was for you to be like, you know what? I don't give a fuck because number one it says a lot about it says it shows your ego

is number one because a lot of people do shit like that for ego I need to be attached to the streamer validates me this person NAP pro whoever it is Netflix, Amazon

whatever the fuck it is I got to be attached to this in order to be seen as somebody you know what I mean for you to have the respect for your fan base that you got to know that your fan base

shows up for you and you say no I'm gonna give this to my fans the way I wanted to give it to my fans and the thing that also makes it not eagle list is because you're not doing it for money. Of course, like, it's a purpose behind it. Like, I want to get you back some money. You want to make back your money, but that's not just purpose.

Your purpose is I want y'all to get this shit raw and uncut. We worked our asses on it. You know what I mean? Like Alex directed it. Like we, you know, I mean, Mark produced it as well. And the Shifty was editing it. Mark was editing as well. And, you know, Doves produced.

This is the whole team. and we work for months on this to make this the project that we want to be. And then I didn't want to, I don't want to do that. I didn't want to edit the fucking jokes. I'm sick of the fucking censorship. Like some dude in an office doesn't know what people want and what people appreciate and what people laugh at more than me, right? Because you're out there every night. And like they make the edits on the jokes.

The people make the edits on the jokes. No Connick wants a bomb. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If I'm out there and a joke is bombing over and over again, I'm going to tweak the joke. Oh, my point isn't coming across. Oh, this punchline isn't funny enough. But if we get it and it's funny and if you come to one of my shows, you see my shows.

You see every different group of people in there. That's right. And I'm not talking about political party, raised gender, all that shit. So it's like if all these people are coming together and laughing at the same thing, that is my litmus test. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

That's my research. I think, I think these people in these offices that are trying to make offense free everything. Like everything got to be free of a fence. Yeah. That's like trying to make a fucking vegan red velvet cheese. Yeah, yeah. Like, you can't do it, bro.

Red velvet is red velvet. Red velvet. You either going to eat this shit with all the calories, with all the sugar or nothing at all. Like, cut it the fuck out. So I just, I saw that shit this week. And I just, I was like, this is, this is like dropping your nuts.

Yeah. In a real way. Like, fuck y'all. I'm putting this shit out. Something like that, you got to support. Like, that's the kind of thing that if you're an Andrew Shultz fan, you got to support. And even if you're not an Andrew Shows fan,

that abortion joke alone. Thank you, man. I got to see what else this crazy motherfucker is talking about. And the abortion shit is not really a joke. It's actually a lot of truth to it. I just want to let y'all know right now, ladies. I am with you.

I think it's your body, your choice. I agree with you on that. I agree with you. When you say to mention, I have no saying the decisions you make with your bodies. Those are your decisions to make and yours alone. And I feel that way because at the end of the day, when we all go up to heaven

and God's like, why are we all killing babies? We're going to be like, y'all. I think they're very clear whose decision this was, God. Looks like you need to pay for your sins, babe. Even though I pay for your sins. Come on, y'all. Shibor he ain't dead to that baby, as you know the rules.

That's a religious joke. It's on you. The whole piece is on YouTube. That's right. It's like, a seven-met piece. So go check it out. I wonder how that works for real, though. You get to heaven.

And you're like, ain't no y'all got. Yeah. Her body. You guys were adamant about this, right? Remember when y'all said, don't make decisions? You told us not to make the decisions. But no, that shit is gangster. And what did go buy that?

And theandrussells.com. Just go get through my website and partner up with this company called Moment House. So they're going to be handling all the live events that's going on. And it'll be really cool. And we got new fashion merch. That's out as well. You can buy all that stuff through the website or just go to fashion. nut shop and then we're going to do like a live hangout after the after we watch the

thing together all the flagrant boys are going to be in the studio we're going to go live with everybody you can get that on the website as well and um dope yeah man it's just it's just fucking awesome and the support and seeing people come out and do it is and just support me is it's just great so uh that would be awesome if you guys want to support that that would be fucking amazing i would really appreciate that and uh yeah just i don't know it felt like it felt like it felt like right thing to do. Obviously, like, financially, it was, it was terrifying. But at the same time, it just, it felt like the right thing to do. And I've always, I don't know, you said something interesting to me, like, early on that's been very impactful. You were like, you could be a man

of the people or a man of the industry. And I don't think that you were black and white about it because I don't have any animosity towards streamers, right? Like, I have a fucking movie coming out on Netflix. I have a project, another movie coming out on Hulu. I have another project with Amazon. Like, I will work with you. That's fine. Absolutely. And I have empathy for the fucking executives.

Like, these people might not be passionate about stand-up like I am. They're passionate about like building a business and running a company. They're trying to protect their jobs. Exactly. They have kids in fucking school. They have a mortgage. Like, I get it. They don't want to take the heat for what you say.

Exactly. And it's like they don't want to do it because they're like, oh, that's not my passion necessarily, the executive board. And it's like, for me, that is my passion. so I'm going to fight for that. But I can understand where someone's coming from. You know, what I got to do is prove that there is a market for this and that people love this and it's okay. And then what happens in the future, it's like other comics, see, this is an opportunity if they don't want to sense of their jokes.

And once more comics realize they can make more money doing this than they can do in traditional specials, now the networks got to change their standards. Now the network's got to go, you know what, the people actually like this way more. maybe we should loosen our restrictions a little bit. Yeah, especially when you're already saying Chappelle can do what he wants to do because Chappelle is Chappelle and Chappelle's doing numbers. So if you're going to let Chappelle, you know, do it and you're going to take the heat for Chappelle

and just take the heat for everybody. Like, what's the difference at this point? I mean, if it's working. If it's working, it's working, man. You know, so Deirdre Shost.com, check that out. It's Sunday. We're all watching that shit together.

Order that up. And just thank you guys, everybody who's already bought it and reached out and spread the words. It's like so many people, people just writing articles and people just like tweeting it and people post on Instagram and like. Because it's ballsy. I saw a bunch of the articles. Nobody, first of all, to have the money to buy back your special. Very lucky. Very fortunate. Great, but clearly good money management. You know what I'm saying? Like, it's clearly good money management for you to have the money tuck the way to do it. But also, it's just like nobody would do that. People want to have their name attached to these screamers. They think it makes them. bigger. That's what I don't know. That's why I always go back to the thing you said. It's like to me,

I'm validated by the people. Like to me, like the live show means so much to me. And I want it to be the best show that you've seen because you guys made my career. Whereas I think there are a lot of people like, as long as I'm in this movie with this company or as long that I'm doing this, like that stuff is cool and it's fun. But it doesn't validate me like the people validate me. Like I don't need to be an industry darling. I don't care about it. I don't care about it. I don't need to go to the fucking parties. I don't, that, that doesn't validate me as much as just walking down the street. The dude is fucking throwing out the trash.

It's like, Sheltzzy, what up? That's right. That's right. Exactly. Like, am I with the people? Because it's impact. It's impact over reach. Because you might be on one of these streamers and you might reach more people.

So you might, let's just say, let's just say eyeball-wise, a million people see it. All right, cool. But, man, when you impact 100,000, when you impact 100,000, when you impact 200,000, 300,000 when you impact how much 300,000 people in? Yo, who are like... Like, real impact. Like that fuck with you, not...

Oh, I know him. I saw him, I know. No, they fuck with you. That's the scary thing about this to a lot of people. A lot of people don't want to know what they're worth. I'm gonna find out. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

That's scary to people. Man, you know, it's something from that Barack Obama special. I heard it twice on the special. David Axelrod said it to Barack. And Barack said it to somebody else, too. he was like, I'm not afraid you're going to lose. I'm afraid you're going to win.

Ah! You know what I'm saying? He was like, I'm not afraid you're going to lose. Yeah, yeah. What happens afterwards? Yeah. Like, that's when it's like, whoa. Yeah.

You're going to win. You probably already won. You probably already made your money back. We're doing good. We're doing good. But there's, you know, there's more work. Like Kobe said, job's not done. Job's not done.

In order to change the game, it's got to be, it's got to be different levels to this. Yeah. And I want to reach. those different levels. And to what you were saying about, like, people seeing it, like, what I already experienced what, I think, transformed comedy a lot is the effect of, like, YouTube and Instagram. It's like, YouTube and Instagram is where people watch comedy. It ain't Netflix.

Like, it ain't, it ain't Amazon. It ain't any of these streamers. Like, if you look at the numbers, I bet you all those streamers get more views on their YouTube and Instagram clips than they do in their own content on their platforms. And it's just because the algorithm is pushing it to everybody. So it's like the eyeballs ain't with the streamers. and if you can't say what you want, so you can't say what you want

and you're not getting the eyeballs, the only thing they got is money. Yeah. And if the money ain't there, it's like, yo, you might as well bet on your fucking self and see what happens.

Screamers are probably only good for like, I don't even want to say up and coming people, but like people who don't have like in a super established fan base shit. I think the opposite. I think you build a fan base by putting in a place

where the algorithm can push it into other people who like it. I think that the streamers are great when you're in a Dave Chappelle type situation where it's like, you're ubiquitous, everybody knows who you are, and you're so popular, they're not going to tell you really that much what to say.

So it's like... He's winning so much. It's like they'll take the heat. Exactly. So I, you know what I mean? I watched two comedy specials this week. I watched the old Bill Burr. I watched Bill Burr.

Oh, Bill got a special coming out, man. You also check it out. It's on the 12th. Oh, we got that WMBA. Really? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I watched the old one I watch... What's the name was Tiger Paws?

No, what was this shit called? Oh, what's the Bill Burr special? Oh, uh, Paper Tiger. Paper Tiger. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I watched that. My wife, my wife loves Bill Burr is fucking hilarious. I watched her and I watched the- He's fucking great.

I wouldn't call it a Chappelle thing, a special. That was- The Talk at his school. Yeah, what's in the name? I watched that this weekend. Speaking of live events, Black Effect Podcast Festival, the first ever Black Effect podcast festival

So make sure you go get your tickets at black effect.com slash podcast festival. Now let's get back to the show. I have one more thing that I want to say. And this is the cool thing. You always heard like the expression. Like if you build it, you know, they will come like. Yes. And like Chris Rock had that fucking great joke about like people always help the person who's

moving the car. That's right. And like it is crazy to see that happen like in real life. Not only like the support, but, you know, Jamil, who does our partnership and stuff like that, he was talking to some companies. There was a company bet online, right? One of the biggest gambling websites.

They heard about it, and I'm sure they saw a synergy of, you know, bet it on yourself, whatever. But like, they basically, they were basically talking and basically bet online. They're flying 10 people out to New York City to watch the special. But this is the crazy.

I was like, yo, that's crazy. This is the craziest thing. Okay. So the special is $15, right? Bet Online, what BetOline is doing is, is giving everybody who buys the special a $15 bet on Bet Online. Really?

So you could make money on the special. Based off what? Like how many people watch it? No, just if you got an email, you're buying the special, you put your email in. That email you sign up on Betonline or you have an existing account. Wow.

You don't even have to deposit nothing. They're just like, we will match that you buying the special $50. and give you a bet on online. So I'm just like, hold on. So you basically giving people the special for essentially free and they could potentially win money on it. Wow.

Anyway, so I thought that was fired. I got a shout out of line on that. So go get that right now. Anybody pre-orders that right now. You will get that. It's crazy that companies like that don't just sponsorship like that. But that's awesome. That is a sponsor.

Yeah, it's sponsorship. I mean, yeah. Because, yes, you're talking about them a lot. Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. But I don't know, for me, like, that's all the value. I'm just like, that, I thought that was just, that was the perfect thing. Like, I love it. I had this conversation when I was in canned lions, um, about advertisers.

And I was talking about how, like, they were asking, like, what's the benefit of advertising on, like, podcast, things like that? And I, I, this applies to more than just podcast, but I was just like, yo, if there's millions of people tuned into something, right? And I always use horrible decisions as an example, right? because people, people love horrible decisions, but advertisers are scared of horrible decisions. The reason is because I just think it's two black women talking about sex,

because every other... Explicit content. Yeah, every other... Very profitable when you see the white girl. That's what I'm saying. So it's like, it's just strange when that happens. But it's like, if there's millions of people watching something, millions of people into something,

why does it fucking matter what your brand thinks of it? Are people in your office think of it? You just want to be what the people are. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? So if there's millions of people tuned into something. Yeah. Clearly these millions of people cannot be wrong.

Bro. I would even go so far to say is that, like, a podcast are the most devout supporters. Yes. Right? Because, like, if you're on a show that just happens to be on TV, somebody might be scrolling. They're going to bump into it.

You're not scrolling and bumping into a two-hour podcast. At all. At all. Like, these are people you actually fuck. with, you know, intimate details of your life. So it's like, loki, you got to pay, you should be paying a premium to access. That's right.

The most devout supporters. That's right. So like, hell yeah, any brand, they'd be stupid to not want to be part of this. And when they say stuff like, well, it's, it's too edgy. For who? Millions of people are tuning into this every week. And they're going to learn the hard way.

You know how they learn? It's always the bottom dollar. It's their competitor takes that. Like, if I'm horrible decisions, I'm going after the competitor of the big brands. I'm going after the number two. Word. I'm going after the number three company.

And then I'm blowing them up past the number one. And now the number one is like, fuck, we messed up. We were playing pre-vent defense. We were pussy. And then we lost out all that money. That's right. 100%. And that's all right.

I mean, that's the moral of the story. Stop being afraid. Stop having these focus blogs to see if your brand spits with this and that. Nobody gives this shit, bro. You either going to be where the people are or not. This is the same shit with the execs. That's right. It's like they're trying to make the best decision, but they're not with the people.

It's very easy. You can see. That's why I don't know. That phrase, I don't know how that phrase holds up in 2022. If you build it, they will come. Like, no, you got to build it and you better meet people where the fuck they are. That's what you're doing. Oh, I see.

You got to build it, but you also got to put it in a place they can access it. You better meet them where they are. Yes. You better go to them if you have to. And if they're on social media, you got to put it in front of them on social media. That's right. That's what I realize about people is like, if you give them the opportunity to enjoy the content and it like impacts them, you know, they have a fucking tough day and then you just make them laugh. They appreciate that shit and they'll come back for more.

That's right. But you got to at least put it in front of them. It's like if you open up a restaurant on an island, deserted island, middle of nowhere, you can't be mad if motherfuckers don't come. Who know the food fire? That's it. Who know? Yeah. If you got through fire glitzies, you got to let motherfuckers.

you got to let motherfuckers know you got the fire glizzies. Sometimes you might have to give some glizzies away. And people will gobble them, bro. And people will gobble them. Now, what did Macy Gray say? Oh, Big Macy Gray. Macy Gray. Macy was on, I don't mean, you know what I mean by saying big.

Like big. Like size. No, man. Big dog status. Macy's great. And I will say this and everybody's going to hate me. But as a woman, just because you go change your plots, doesn't make you a woman. Right.

Sorry. You feel that. I know that for a fact. What do you think of Macy Gray's statement? You know, we had a trans woman on the show. The name is Daisy Taylor, trans porn star. And she just really just, yeah, she just really convinced me, man. Like, I think that I understand where she's coming from,

and she's defined herself with body parts and with that biology. that makes sense. But there's 7 billion people on the planet. All sorts of weird shit happens. Okay? Like obviously the design for most people

is for... The design. It is a making model. No, there is a making model. It's like, dude, chick. They fuck. They make more dudes and chicks who also fuck we continue the population. That was the idea. Right? Sometimes

a person's born missing something. Sometimes a person's born with a little bit more. There's seven billion versions of it. There's going to be some things that are twisting and turning. And I think that there are people who have some things that are twists and turns and they were born in the wrong body. Ooh, that's a good, that's a good discussion. So is it mental or physical? Well, obviously, the body is physical.

Now, what I all, and then obviously I think that the feeling is mental. But what I also think happens is we are human beings that are drawn to trends. and I think that things become trendy and then we often do them. We've seen it happen with face tattoos and then people regret it. I think we've seen it happen with clothing. And I think we're seeing it happen

with maybe a gender identity where people are maybe over- It's more on the menu. Exactly, but maybe there's an over-correction because we were so rigid before. Yeah. Right? So now there's this, oh, there's a hundred different genders

because before it was like there was only two. And I think that there are people that are trans and they are born in the wrong body and that is something that they struggle with. And the best way that they know how to handle it is by getting a reassignment surgery. That's the best option they have so far. And even then it's probably still very difficult. And then I think there are also like young kids who think that it's cool or there's like social points if they identify as that. And then in school and they're kind of going through that process. I just think it feels wild to tell somebody.

And listen, I'm sure it's more than this. But to tell somebody, I am you because I feel like you. Well, she's not, she not, she not, they're not saying I am you. They're saying I'm me. And I think that's the distinction. A lot of people don't get. But they're saying they're women. Yeah, but like, yeah, I'm me, which is a woman, not I'm, I'm you.

Why can't they just say that they're trans women? Why can't trans women just be its own category? That makes more sense to me. When I see trans women or trans women. And then there's women that were born women. You know what I mean? Like, to me, that's got to be two totally different things. I could never know what a woman's experience is on this planet, bro.

Yo, and a trans woman's experience is going to be totally different. And I could never know what a trans woman's experience. That's right. And a black woman's experience is going to be totally different from white women's experience and so on so forth. What I'm saying is with seven billion. people. We're talking about billions, bro. We're not talking about millions. Billions. I think it's possible that there are some wires that get switched up and people are born with certain things that weren't part of the original model or design. Well, how do those billions and billions of people find a way

to all go to McDonald's? McDonnells has served every single one of them. How did McDonald's found a way to serve every single one of those people? What does McDonald's at? It's the greatest restaurant of history. Everybody can agree on. It's the greatest restaurant of history, bro. It's just what it is. It's like every culture, like every single group of people on the planet fucking McDonald's, bro.

Regardless of what you identify as, you identify as a quarter pound of love. You love that quarter pounder, bro. Jim fries, bro. That's nice. It's crazy, but it's true, bro. It's crazy, but it's true. I just, I'm listening. I listen to women.

And if a woman tells me that, you know, that's to me it shouldn't have been back last it should have been a discussion right you know what I'm saying like I have the conversation instead of being so quick to stick a glizzy in somebody's mouth and choke them out uh you know what I'm saying like actually have the conversation but yeah I'm not about to argue with no well I think I think I think maybe she should just talk to more trans people like just to have a conversation like for me for me that's what was transformative Yeah. I transition.

It meets the eye. Yeah. No, but for me, it just was like, I don't know. I mean, Al, you were there too. Like, did you have that same feeling? Yeah. Like, I didn't get it before having that discussion with it. I believe in trans women.

I believe that they believe exactly what it is they say. I believe they feel the way they feel. I'm just simply saying that I think that there's a trans woman experience. And then there's a bio. psychologically-worn woman experience. And I don't think they would disagree with that. Yeah, I don't think those experiences are the same at all. And I think that's why like, it can't be the same.

Well, I think that's why the conversation, all right, here's the tricky thing about this. There's so few people who are out as trans that the average straight person, male or female, hasn't even had a conversation with one. Okay? That's true. And it's very similar. So we don't even know what they're saying and what they feel. and a lot of times

the only people that we hear from are like the most extreme versions of the group because those are the people that get the media attention. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like if you,

the average trans person, I've spoken to a few trans people like when they talk about like the sports thing, like the women in sports, they're like, they literally are like, you know how bad this is

for trans rights? Because now everybody hates us because this one girl wants to swim. That's right. Girl, there's a bigger issue here. That's right. Like the trans community, from what I hear from them, they're worried about getting, like, beaten up or they're worried about getting killed.

They're not worried about swimming. Yeah, actual civil rights issues. Exactly. So they're like, you're putting negative attention on us and, like, giving people a way of, like, shutting us up or silencing us when you're doing this. So they, and then you hear one of them say that. And then you're like, oh, okay, so we kind of agree on all the same things. And they're like, yeah, you know, this is just how I feel. That's why one time Dee Way was talking about his daughter.

Yeah. And D-Way was talking about how, you know, he was talking about how transgender rights are being scripted away, but he was using the women. I think somebody banned women, I mean, trans people from playing women sports. I forgot what state it was. And I was like, yo, you're conflating. Ohio, maybe. But I'm like, you're conflating two issues. Like, yes, we want all people to have rights.

You know what I mean? Like, we don't want to see people being hurt for who they are, discriminated against for who they are. We don't want that. But the women's, the trans women playing women's sports is a total different issue. Different issue. And then when you muddy them, it just makes everything more difficult. Because is that what you call trans, right? And people who don't know, like, is that what they call it trans rights?

And it's so much harder for the average person to believe and support that. The average person is going to see the competitive advantage that a dude that transition into a woman has over women. And they're going to be like, yo, I got daughter. Like, you got daughters. You want your daughters to be able to compete on a level playing field. not against someone who has genetic advantages. Absolutely.

So if that's the discussion, then the trans community doesn't get heard, really, because they're going to have to fight for that girl. And then the community is so tight, they're like, well, I can't speak out against this girl because they're fighting for, I guess, all rights, but at the same time, you fucking everything up. You know, and again, I could be,

I'm paraphrasing what these women I've spoken to said, so my bad, I don't know exactly what you're saying, but I'm doing my best. My point is like, there's so few trans people and so few straight people have trans friends that they don't even know exactly how they feel and they're getting the most exaggerated version

of how they feel and then arguing with that. It's very similar to like back in the day when white people and black people were not friends, right? Or the friend groups weren't as mixed. And you even see it now. Like they're just kids who don't have white friends and don't have black friends. And the things they say about one another

can be like borderline races even if they're not intending to be because they don't know what's considered offensive or not. You know what I'm saying? Like a white lady that doesn't even realize

it's wrong to ask if she can touch your hair. Right? Like it's not like she has malice and hate in her heart. She's just walking up and going, oh, that looks really beautiful. Let me do it.

She doesn't understand the sensitivity. Right? So, but a white girl that grew up with you and went to school with you is like never going to do that because you probably, she'd probably seen it happen to you and then saw you get offended or something like that.

And then she's like, oh, that's a line that you don't cross and you have to learn that. So I think what will probably happen in the future is there'll be more straight people that have friends that are trans, and then they'll know, one, how most trans people feel about things, and then two, what line is crossed or not. Absolutely. That's what I think.

But, look, Macy's right in terms of the experience is not the same. It's not the same, and I think that's all Macy is saying. But then trans person would disagree with that. Like, why? It's like an honest statement. Like, but it's an obvious statement. I don't know. I didn't, I don't pay attention to the backlash.

I just heard people got upset. And then I know they got mad at our, uh, our homie flame. Because, you know, Flame spoke out and supported Mason grave. But Flame has always said, I'm not a woman. He's like, I emulate a woman. Yeah. He was like, I went and got breast and everything else. You know, I wear dresses sometime.

But he was like, I would never disrespect my mother or my aunt by saying, you know, you know, what did I am. a woman like let flame play flame comments and so good evening everyone my name is comedian flame monroe i am a transgender woman or person however you describe it and this message is directly for macy gray macy gray i want to tell you of the words of my mouth from my portion of the lgb qia plus community that i wholeheartedly support you and thank you for seeing the real world for what it is I do not believe that you are transphobic or homophobic or any other kind of phobic. I believe that you know science and biology because here are the three things. Gender is a fact.

Identity is how you feel and sexuality is your desire. And you are absolutely right because until you have a heart and mind of a woman, I don't believe that you could ever possibly be a biological woman. Transwomen are trans women. Trans men are trans men. Women are women and men are men. It is as simple as that. There shouldn't be any argument about this.

I'm going to tell you something, man. Flame breaks it down so clear and so concise for everybody to understand. Because that's all it really boils down to. And I think that's where people push back because it feels like in a lot of ways they're trying to play with people's reality. Are there just trying to make people believe things that we know not to be true? You know what I'm saying? I don't think trans people are ever saying

I am a biological woman. Yeah. And if they are, then they're inaccurate. Yeah. I think what they're saying is that they are a woman in terms of how they feel. I don't like what you were saying, how trans women,

they have nerve to get upset when we're saying they're not really women. Like, you don't know how I feel. You don't know my body parts or anything else like that. Yeah. Getting stuff does not mean you're a woman. I really agree with. It's Bacy Gray, and I don't know why people had to add you with it.

Got you. How do you know that they don't feel the same? They, how, you, what does that even mean, though? Like, did anyone ever ask them, what does that mean to feel like a woman? Because to me, no offense. Valid question. I had to cut it out. But I feel like, it's this dress up.

You do not know how I feel as a woman. Women like to dress, huh? But you're saying it's more than that. Yes, it's a more part. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a valid question. That's not a question I'm here to defend. I'm not a woman.

Frankly, I don't know. Y'all can figure that shit out yourself. That's how I feel. I'm like, listen, I, I, I, I agree what, Flame said, what did she say? Flame said, gender is a fact. Identity is what you feel and sexuality is your desire. I think that is so profound. Let's pay some bills.

salute to everybody in Charleston, South Carolina, man, you know, my birthplace, my hometown is Monk's Corner. I will be down there this Thursday, you know, this weekend they're having the Denmark BC bicentenary, and it is celebrating the 200-year anniversary of Denmark VC's planned slave revolt. He didn't actually get a chance to revolt because he got ratted out by one of the other slaves. But it's going to be

July 14th through the 16th at the Gildyard Center. And I'll be there Thursday doing a panel discussion at 7.30 p.m. called truth be told. Okay, with you know, Kamal Bell and Dr. Tanya Matthews and some other great

historians on the legacy of Denmark V.C. If you've ever read my first book, Black Privilege, and you know how much the story of Denmark VC influenced me coming from Charleston, South Carolina, amongst corner South Carolina. So join us this weekend. Little Duvall.

The goat. Duvall keeps posting this video. He's been posting it for years. I don't know why all of a sudden this morning it became a thing. But he's been posting this video of him twerking that ass at a high school talent show in 1994.

This is Duvall. You've seen this video, right? No. You've never seen this video. This is Little Duval at a high school talent show in 1994. And what Duval was trying to say is every Florida boy danced like this in high school. That is a fact. Go watch old 69 boys videos.

Go watch old Uncle Luke men used to wear bikers shorts. You fuck a hoochie daddy short. Niggas was out here in bikers, B. Okay? That's... Wait. You were doing this? I never, I never did that.

Where is Duval? That's Duval right there. In the middle? Yeah, in the middle. He's going to look back. I'm going to tell you when you're going to know it's Duval. Just keep watching. Watch him.

That's due. Pop, pop, pop. Hey. Now watch Duke. This is how you're going to know it's Duval. Forever to Showman. Just watch it at the end of the video. Watch at the end of the video.

Watch him. Watch him. Oh, yeah, he's popping. Let's get a point. Ooh, watch this point. Ooh, ooh. Ooh. That's how you know it's dovie.

The Duval, Duval, that point at the end. You see that point at the end. By the way, he's not twerking, though. He's more fucking. Like, that's stroke. Y'all didn't grow up in the 1900. You think he was throwing it back? Not me?

That was the night. We do be twirking when you're fucking. I'm on my back, bro. No, you're talking when you're fucking. I'm on my back. You ain't sliding, bro. You're up and thrust. Nah, bro.

I'm on my back and I hit him with the popcorn. Ain't no way, bro. Ain't no way. No. On your back is even crazy. On the back and then just popcorn? Pop, pop, pop, pop. Yeah.

You're going to hit him with popcorn a little, On your black is real. On my black. I'm on my black, bro. I get on my black and I hit them with a little popcorn. On your back, because you got your ass to the sheets. So that means that you like, your ass is rubbing the sheets at the same time. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Talk about you don't like the glory hole. I don't like the glory hole. I like, I do like my glory hole. But this is regular. Yo, in the 1900s, this is how so many of us you know. to dance, bro.

When Uncle Luke said, put your hands up. That's wild, bitch. You say that in the 1900? That is the 1900. God. You know how long ago 1900 was? 1984?

No. You know how long ago that was? Brough. When Uncle Luke said put your hands up high, your back down low, that hydraulic to the floor. Boom. Boom.

Boom. No, hydraulic. No, no, Taylor. That's Megan. hydraulic mean up and down. You got to have him knees. First of all,

don't tell me about twerking, bro. I honestly think you might hurt yourself if you try to do that. Exactly. Exactly. I honestly think you might hurt yourself. She'd be mad jealous to me because I got ass. I know. That's a thing.

Yeah. I got more ass than you and my knees sturdy or relax. Yeah, that's facts. Relax. That is facts. That is facts. That is facts. Tailor, gang.

Taylor, you got chill out. Okay? You think just because you was born as a woman, you're the only person out here that got ass and can twerk and got strong knees. Okay? Video of making. The one you were making. I just like this point.

That pointed thing is wild. The point is super doo ball, bro. The one where you wore so much, much with, like when Megan was twirking, remember that video? Yeah. That's what he's doing. I know. You ain't got to tell me.

The only thing that makes this glizzy is the choreography. The fact that they playing this. All three of them are doing the same dance together. Yeah, they got the same outfits on. Watch this. Watch this. Glizzy gobb. You see you did glizzy gob.

You know what I'm saying? Shout out to Duval, though, man. Doing the kids how we did it in the 1900s. Ain't nothing y'all got new, bro. Yeah, that's facts, bro. Nothing, nothing y'all do is new. Nothing changes, dude. Everything is the fucking same, man.

Y'all just remixing shit. Did we talk about Kevin Duran? What do you do? Regie is just playing. He's changing his name to Trump. I mean, no, Kevin Doreen just wanting to trade. Oh, he's officially said it? Oh, yeah.

You didn't know that? He said that like two weeks ago He said he officially wants to trade If I'm not, if I'm Brooklyn, I'm not trading If I'm Brooklyn, I'm not trading him Orrery Irving Yeah, play it out Y'all gonna play it out

We have done nothing wrong to y'all This is where y'all said y'all wanted to be Y'all picked the coach and everything else Yeah Kyrie, you could have got vaccinated last year You chose not to and I respect Kyrie Irving's choice He didn't help at all He was playing in a playoffs

He made a choice He made a choice And then when he played in the playoff, they got swept by the Celtics. Listen, he made a choice. People make choices every day. You got to live with the consequences of your choices. I'm the Brooklyn. First of all, you're not going to get nothing for Kevin Durant.

Why like that? Because he demands too much. Whatever you give up for Kevin Durant, you're fucking gutting your team. You know what I mean? You're going to give up all of these first round draft picks. You're going to give up to – they said they want two all-stars and a bunch of first-round draft picks. Who can they going to play with if he's going to?

goes. I thought the sons. The sons had a good package. But at one point, they said they wanted Devin Booker. You're not giving up Devin Booker. Also, Kevin Durant don't want to play with Chris Paul. You don't think so? Nobody wants to play with Chris Paul. Really? I think Chris Paul is a perfect thing for somebody like Kevin Durant. He's a leader. Nah, but Chris Paul going to yell at you. That's the leader. Yeah, but Kevin Durant's at a point in his career. Like, he don't need all that. What he wants. Carrey needs to get yelled at. Carrey need to get yelled at, but he won't be yelled at. So then he's going to have a problem. You know what I mean?

Like that's at a point where he's not going to be yelled at. I mean, it was too much even just playing with LeBron. So it's like, I think Kevin Durant wants to be back in Gold Estate, where it's like, yeah, we're going to run the offense through you, have fun, be dominant. We don't have any over-the-top coaches. We don't have any over-the-top personalities on the team outside of Draymond. But Draymond's not even the best player in the team,

so he can't really tell you what to do. And Steve. He's a leader, though. Say what? He's a leader. Who? Dremond Green. I think he'd rather.

deal with Dremont and Chris Paul. Chris Paul, people hate playing with him, bro. Dremont's a beast, though. You'll listen to Dremont more. You got four rings. He got the rings. You got the ring. You got to pay attention.

God knows what he's doing. Golden State has so many great leaders. Seth Curry is a great leader. Dremont Green is a great leader. Steve Kerr is a great leader. You know what I'm saying? Andre Dekwadal is a great leader. You know what I'm saying?

Clay Thompson is a great leader. Like, they have so many great leaders. That's why Jordan Poole can come there and have success. Andrew Wiggins can come there and have success. James Wiseman is going to have mass success next year. They can take that young core and grow them up the right way because of the people that they have in position. That's your name for everybody, man. And it's a very eagoless team they have.

Yeah, that's the beauty of it. And that's trickle down. It's like, if Steph's going to have no ego, you can't have any ego because you're not better than stuff. I know if you can't say the word, ego. Shameless plug. Let's go, Ryan. This is my favorite book, I think. I've read this book so much.

That's why it looks like this. I even had it on vacation with me because I constantly read it so much. And what I read the most is the success chapter. Because I want to read y'all one thing from the success chapter because it's so real, man. Success. This is just how it starts off. Here we are at the top of a mountain. We worked hard to climb.

Or at least the summit is in sight. Now we face new temptations and problems. We breathe thinner air in an unforgiving environment. Why is success so ephemeral? ego shortens it. Did I hit that word right? Nope. What is it?

Ephemoral. Ephemeral. Really? How many times you read this? I'll be fucking that word up every single time, bro. Affirmal. Affirmal. That sounds like an identity.

It doesn't it sound like an identity. What are you? Avermal. Ego shortens it. Whether a collapse is dramatic or a slow erosion is always possible and often unnecessary. We stop learning. We stop listening. And we lose our grasp on what.

matters. We become victims of ourselves in the competition. Sobriety, open-mindedness, organization, and purpose. These are the great stabilizers. They balance out the ego and pride that comes with achievement and recognition. I read this book so much because you have to constantly keep reminding yourself.

And when I read it this week, there was a part in the success chapter that talks about the more you accomplish, the less you should know. Think about that. The more you accomplished, the more success you get, the more money you get, the more you accomplish, the less you should know because it's always new territory. You're always, like, for example,

you're putting out this special. You don't know what could happen with this special. You just know that you're at a point that where you're successful enough to turn down, putting your special out on this screamer, buy it back, and sell it yourself. You don't know what the outcome of that is going to be. That's true. You have no idea what the outcome of that is going to be. So you're in uncharted territories right now. You are completely clueless.

You just simply don't know. And that's how we always have to be because that's always, that's how we remain students. Right now you're a student. Yeah. And also like once you make an accomplishment, you probably are going to try to set a new goal. Now you're completely uncharted territory, right? That's right. So now you know nothing.

think about that new thing that you want to accomplish. So yeah, that makes a lot of sense. We always got to stay students, man. Always. Bro, if you said something earlier in the podcast, they're kind of like, I don't know, I got me thinking a little bit. You were like, I feel closer to God

when I'm in Quilla. Yes, in Anguilla, yep. And, yeah, I think there's something about, like, natural beauty. Like, I felt this when I was in Italy, too. Mm-hmm. Whereas, like, I would see things and I would go, I completely understand

why people believe in God. Because there's no way man could have made something like this. I mean, you just watch a sunset on a fucking cliff and you're just like,

this is God. This, I'm looking at God. Bro, I told my wife put the time lapse on. Let me see. I told I put the time lapse on

just to just to, just to watch that beautiful sunset, bro. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, literally, me and my wife sat outside, and we do this all the time, but we sat outside and, like, we just watch falling stars. And, like, I'm in the car, my three-year-old yesterday, and she's like, I want to see a falling star just randomly. And I go, yo, we saw a bunch of them this week, you know? And so my six-year-old goes, to see falling stars, you have to stay up real late, like past 9.30.

But it's the truth. Like, you see nature? It's like, well, because it's, because it's humbling, right? Like, yeah. I think it's very easy to get caught up in the city, like, especially, you know, with the algorithms on our phones and internet, like you get caught in your own bubble in your own world, and you can be the champion or the victor in your own world, right?

But when you're, you can tell yourself a story, and you can tell yourself a story. And that's really valuable. Like, don't get me wrong. Like, it's important to create those stories for yourself to motivate yourself, whether you're losing 150 pounds. Like, that's the story. Like, go fucking get it every single day.

but there's something about being around nature. And I think this is why, like, wealthy people who value life tend to put themselves in these environments. It's not just the natural beauty. Like, yeah, of course, you want to see beautiful things. But, like, the wealthy people that are, like, trying to get the most out of life, not the ones who are like,

I need to buy this really fancy thing because then other people will go, look how fancy that guy is. I'm talking about the people who are, like, getting an estate in Montana. It's expensive. But there's something else happening in Montana. You're doing it to get closer to nature?

Yes, and why? Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Anguilla, fucking Italy. There's places all around the world. And I really think... The Hamptons.

The Hamptons is very beachy. It's beechy, but it's a little scenic. But I hear what you're saying. I never bet on the Hamptons. I don't even know why I said that. You're not as much. But there's something about the humility that nature provides. You might think you're this big fucking shot.

And then you go in front of this amazing ranch in Montana. You go to Anguilla and you watch the fucking sunset. You're on the coast of a mallfish. and you're watching the sunrise. It's like, you see these things. You're like, this shit is so much bigger than me. And this is a refreshing feeling that there's something else out there.

And I think that as people get more and more successful, I imagine these like even these billionaire motherfuckers, they need that reset. They need to know. Yeah. I mean, listen, go to Kabul and just watch the whales jump out the water. I bet you'll sit your stupid ass down somewhere.

You know what I'm saying? And just watch, bro. And when you see boats in the water and the whales jump by the boats, but don't knock the boats over or nothing. You're like, the only reason we are even, the only reason things are going well for us in this water because that whale is allowing us to.

Bro, you know what? No, it's facts, bro. You're little. You're little. Well, you know what? I agree with you wholeheartedly. But it also can make you feel big. And I'll tell you why.

You're like, damn, God created all of this, and he created me. Well. And you know, when you really, Really feel it at? Go in the ocean and pee, bro. I'm dead serious. Like, peeing in the ocean is one of the most natural things.

It's like, when you pee in the toilet, you can feel it kind of. When you pee in the ocean, it's just like a release of water. And it's like I'm sharing with the water like here. It's not like you need more. Yeah. But here. I don't know what you're talking about. I'm wasting.

What? I'm dead serious. Just try it. You know, this is one thing I think New York is missing. and it's not peeing in the water. But like, the buildings in the way that it's made is a miracle. But at the same time, like, unless you live on the water, you don't get that sunrise, sunset, man. Like, that's like a real luxury in New York.

And that was your biological clock. Yeah. Like, for millions of years as we live as human beings, bro. It's like, oh, the sun is coming up. Ooh, it's time to get up, time to do my shit. Oh, the sun's going down. It's time to go down to it. And, like, I do think that that.

That is a very unnatural thing. And I think it's a really nice thing for us when we get out of the city. I know there's people listening to this that just watch it every single day on their fucking porch or whatever. And they're like, these guys are ridiculous. But that is not something that we get to see. And seeing it is just... Listen, I grew up in the country, Monk's Corner South Carolina, so all I knew was nature. Like, playing outside was a thing.

That's why black people think outside is a smell. Because it is. And you know what I'm saying? You only know that if you go outside a lot. You know what I mean? We used to run through cornfields, run through the woods, walk barefoot in the grass. We'd play with, you know, insects, all types of shit. Like, I love nature.

Nature is all I know. Nature is the most amazing thing for my mental health. I promise you, when I'm on these islands, just walking around the woods somewhere on a nature hike or something. It's like, I don't have any anxiety. It's so wild. Really? It's like, I can't even describe it. And I'm always just trying to figure out ways to just be like,

psychologically, mentally, sound, stable, healthy. Nothing does it for me like nature, brother. Yeah, it's true. It's the ultimate, I'm not using the word right, like, because it's not human. Epidermal? What's the word? Yeah, epidermis.

It's the ultimate, yeah, yeah. It's it. How do you say the ultimate humbler? The ultimate humbler. Is that it? I don't know. I think so. It's just, it's hard to sit there and see this and be like,

oh, wow, those trees have been growing for hundreds. of years. These rock formations have been here for millions of years. Like, you're just seeing all this and you're going, wow, we're here for a very short amount of time. And there's two ways to go with that. You can go dark with that. Like, we're insignificant. And then you can go the way you went with it. We're like, how fucking lucky am I that I get to be here now? And then I'm able to do these things now. And 90 to 100 is a long time. I mean, listen, we're not going to be here as long as trees. But I mean, yo, if you live to be 80, 90, you lived a good life. You know what I mean? And I honestly, Ryan, Ryan Holiday's Lutheran.

Ryan gave me a coin one time. And the coin literally was like, you're going to die one day. And I'm like, bro, how did you give me this? You know what I mean? Motivation, bro. Don't waste it. That's right.

It makes you appreciate life. And I saw this thing with a Neil degrassi Tyson. He was talking to Larry King. And he asked Larry King, would he want to live forever? Would he want to live to some? I forgot what the, it was a long time frame. Yeah.

And Neil was like, if we had that much time, what would be the point? Like what would be the point of getting out of bed every day knowing that we got tomorrow? Death is the motivator. Death is the motherfucking motivator, man. Let's do some asking idiots, Taylor. I mean, get up out of here.

Taylor gang. Ooh, this is a good one. L.J. Hablichick says, what is the best 19, what is the best movie from the 1900s? He said best 90s movie, but that's the 1900s. What's the best 90s movie?

I'm confused on timing of movies now. Like, is Ghostbusters the 90s or is that the 80s? That might have been 1980s. 1980s. I'm sure there was some sequels in the 90s, though it had to be because Bobby Brown was in one. The Matrix. Is that 90s, yo? I think it was 99.

So I was talking my girl about some shit by the same. No, the Matrix is it? I think it was 99. Google it. What's the Matrix? When the Matrix came out? I mean, the Matrix was crazy. If that's 90s, forget it.

Was that the 90s? When did the first Matrix movie come up? First Matrix movie. Oh, 99? Wow. I don't count that. Yeah, that's... No, that's...

What's the best 90s movie? I mean, it's a lot to me. Y'all put Pulpiction up there. I keep... Yeah, I'm thinking, like, the epics, like, when we were kids, like, we're not stand by me or whatever, that fucking movie with? Yeah. Stand by me, is that the...

Stand by me is the White Boys in the Hood. Yeah. White Boys in the Woods. Boy's in the Woods. Yeah. The Boys in the Hood. it's kind of sinned, not to send it, but it starts off with them fine

and you want to go see a dead body? Yeah. That was staring by me. Yeah. Wasn't they going to see a dead body by the tracks if I'm not mistaken? Yes, I think so. Yeah.

And then what was the Goonies? Like another one like that. Remember that was the 80s. That was 80s. But like I'm trying to think of those movies. Like, Farris Bueller's day off. That's the 80s. That's definitely the 80s.

That's definitely the 80s. You just put black movies in the 90s? Fridays? Friday's one. Oh, Friday's legendary. By the way, all of these is classic. Friday, Boys in the Hood, Menace in Society.

Yo, bad boys, one. Bad boys won. Crazy. Love Jones. That's my wife's favorite movie. People sleep on Set it off. Set it off is so fucking good. Set it off.

White men can't jump. What happens when you Google white movies in the 90s? Yeah, put white 90s. He's just kind of curious. Tell them just put best black movies. Yeah, yeah. Best white movies.

Put best white movies of the 90s. Matter of fact, Time out, time out. You don't even have to put white. Just put best movies of the 90s. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just put best movies of the 90s. Best movies of the 90s.

Okay, let's hear we go. Oh, good fellas. Come to fuck on. Oh, yeah. Good fellas. Yeah, I didn't know good fellas was the 90s. Oh, this is good. Not Lewis was fire.

Rush hour. Oh, rush hour, crazy. They got a minute society up there. Keep going. Oh, casino. Friday. Unbelievable. Casino.

He probably was out too. That was amazing. Pride baby was good, Johnny Depp. American Pie? Wow. Yeah. We had bangers in the 90s, man. Keep going, keep going. What else?

What we got here? Oh, Adam Sandler had a run in the 90s. Holy shit. Oh, Adam Sandler. Yeah, he owned that. I mean, Titanic. Oh, forget it. Titanic sucked.

What? I would have just breathed on the water. That's right. That's right. I wouldn't just breathe underwater and I wouldn't die. Or none of them even tried. I don't feel cold. They didn't even try.

They just, it just, it was like, fuck it. They didn't even test their powers. I hope your wife sends me the video of you trying to breathe underwater and you just could.

Oh, the Blair Witch Project. Blair Witch was fired. Especially when I thought it was real. You just called Titanic Trash and you said Blamich. Come on, bro. Blair Witch was fighting first, Blair Witch,

especially when I thought it was real. Titanic was trash. I believe everything, bro. Titanic? I just didn't like it. She shared the board. What happened? At the end, Rose should have shared.

There was enough for two of them to be on the board. She was selfish and let what should call it die. Really? Yes. Yeah, he's broke. Fuck she's going to do with his ass when they get back home. That's just a nice little fling for the boat ride. Oh, she was fucking him.

Yeah. I forgot about all that. the movie? No. He digged that down in a Model T. Model T smashed. Fogged up the windows. They had Model T's on the boat? Why did they have cars on the boat? Because they had to get the cars from London to America, bro. Should have drove one off that motherfucker.

Facts though. Like, there's got to be something that could float in there, right? Like, no, they didn't plan that very well, but still, she also had the jewelry, kept that shit. For no reason. Gold digging ass. Let's go to Syracian. Did they ever just recover all those bodies from the Titanic? No. They're just down there, frozen.

Because they didn't try to breathe, bro. They didn't try to breathe. That's why they died. Big Mickey says if the world was the end tomorrow and you had one last thing to say from radio our stage. If the world was end in the tomorrow, what the fuck would make you think I'd be on the radio? The fuck?

You're like, that's why I want to spend my last day on this planet. What are you doing? Oh, in Anguilu, my family. We all can breathe underwater. That's what the fuck going to happen. Why would this hell? First of all, if the world was the end tomorrow, it'd be chaos if everybody knew the world was in the in tomorrow.

Like, there would be nobody, they might be listening to the radio. I doubt they would be coming to a show, though. Do you think? Yeah, no. Okay. Okay. I mean, I don't know. Does that show to have something?

Do you have something? What if you're already on the radio and then you find out? And I'm already at a show and then you find out. No, no, that would be fine. Everybody's listening. I've been waiting for that. I know for a fact that Orson Wells War the World's moment is coming. I think it's probably going to happen on social media, right?

But Orson Wells got on the radio and told everybody, UFOs was coming. The aliens. You know what I'm saying? Yep. So, and people were wild. He was playing, but people were wilding. People lost their money. lost their minds.

I don't know if I would want that responsibility to say that the world is going to end tomorrow. Plus, I'm not going to believe. You don't really think any of us would believe that shit? What? They told us the world was ending tomorrow. We don't believe anything. No, we would not believe.

Debbie, just like, don't look up. We'd be like, man, what the fuck, man? Get a glizzy and enjoy your day, yo. Okay. Let's do one more. Oh, this is a good one. Jordan Coe v says Biden again or Trump again. Whoa.

That's a tricky one, huh? Trump, people start tearing themselves apart again. The country is just the fucking animosity and the anger and the vitro all people have. That's just fucking exhausting to live in, to be honest with you. It's going to be there whether it's Trump or not, though. Say what? It's going to be there whether it's Trump or not. But the temperature is much cooler with Biden.

Is it? He's just dead. But if he was, but like, but the cool, it's a cooler temperature in my opinion. Yeah. You don't feel that? No. Oh, wow. I feel like it's much cooler.

No. You're lying. Put it like this. If that's the case, then Trump's not, Trump has never been the issue. The whole country was on fire for like a year. Because the country's on fire. Like, we got to stop acting like who's ever in the fucking White House really dictated. The country, the country was on fire doing Obama.

The country was on fire doing the Clintons. Nah, me. Yeah, yeah, I promise you, I'm watching this Obama documentary yesterday. The things they were saying in the doc is like they were saying yesterday. Well, that's the thing. The country's going into a recession and, you know. Nothing changed. Nothing changed.

It's on repeat, bro. That's why you got to live your life. Do what Duvold does, man. Just live your life. Once you realize it doesn't change. It's all a game. I agree. Unplug.

I agree. Get it in. Like, I promise. Go home. Everybody out there, watch the Obama doc is on HBO. It's three parts. Watch that doc and listen to the rhetoric from the 90s when Clinton was in office. Listen to the rhetoric when Obama was in office.

Bush, whatever. It all sounds exactly like it sounds now. Fighting for voting rights. What the fuck did I just say? Fighting for voting rights. We're headed into a recession. It's to say Roe v. Wade needs to be codified. All of the same exact shit. All in the same exact shit. Nothing has changed. So it's like Biden again or Trump again. Let's see. Let's go autopilot for a while. We ain't try that yet. We ain't try that yet. Like, let's go autopilot for a while. I think... We kind of auto pilot.

Yeah, I think we are an autopilot. The president really is just a figurehead, but that's fine. You need somebody for us to be angry at. You need somebody for us to blame. We are kind of on autopilot. I promise you, Joe Biden or Donald Trump is not the blame. This country had all of it... Every president in the last, however, 20 years,

has dealt with circumstances beyond their control. Yeah. America created a system. the system I believe is not working for everybody the way that it should But that's the point of the president

A lot of people don't realize it The point of the president is for us To point the finger at And be like this is your fault Even though this system has been put in place Right? And the ship keeps moving No matter what, right? So it's you get four years to be blamed

Or eight years to be blamed Yes What you want? And one thing Obama kept saying in this documentary He was like, I hope none of y'all expect But he kept saying this. I hope. Nobody believes that

I'm going to change America in four years or eight years. Like he kept saying that. But what he had was hope. And one reason I'm not even mad at Obama after watching that doc is like, that's really all he sold. Yeah.

Hope is a drug, bro. He called it the audacity of hope. That's literally all it was. I'm going to provide you hope. It's the motherfuckers that say, I'm going to do this and I'm going to do that and I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen.

Those are the ones we get mad at because now he's like, why the fuck you lie to me, bro? I'm going to make you hope it will happen. But he also ran on the slogan of change. Yeah. So he said, he said, change we can believe in. He didn't say I was going to actually make change.

He said, this is change that I'm offering. I'm offering another way. But there was this guy on the doctor. I can't remember his name. He said, man. man, I forgot how he worded it, but he was like, the level of delusion you have to have. To believe you could change America. No, not to change America to believe that white supremacy won't always be white supremacy.

Because, you know, Barack spent a lot of his time not addressing white supremacy, not addressing racism until he got caught up with the Reverend Jeremiah Wright thing. And then he gave this whole speech on race. But it was interesting because they played a speech, but they got guys like Cornell Weston. talking about the speech in real time. And he was lying right there. You know what I'm saying? He shouldn't have said it like this because that's not true. And I just found that so interesting,

but it was like, yo, Barack, because of his experiences, growing up with a white mother, white grandmother, like being half white. Yeah. His experience with whiteness was different. Absolutely. So he saw white people in a totally different way than probably every other minority.

And you can't be mad at him. Not at him. That's his experience. He experienced love from a white woman. Yeah. He experienced love from, I imagine, his white grandmother. It's probably hard to hate a group of people that are loving. He also grew up in Hawaii, and I think this is really important for people to understand.

White people are not the majority in Hawaii, and white people are, how do I say this? Like, kind of look down, their second tier in Hawaii. So, and in Hawaii, Barack passes as Hawaiian. So he grew up in a place where when people saw him, they didn't see a black guy. They're like, oh, that's that skinny Samoan guy or that's that skinny Hawaiian guy. So he grew up as the majority and the accepted group. Even though his mother who raised him was white, they call white people like Howley's over there. Right.

So it's like he had a very unique situation. He wasn't the black guy that's walking in around the white neighborhood being looked at all the time. and feeling like second-class citizen. He's the black and white guy that's passing us Hawaiian, walking around Hawaii, like, oh, yeah, I'm normal, everybody accepts me, this is my people, and they're treating you as if you are one of them.

And growing up in Indonesia. He said in Indonesia, he was just American. Well, that's probably the first time that he was like, oh, I'm an outsider, outsider. Yeah, but either way, he was still getting treated like an outsider. Yeah. Because he was American.

Yeah. But his experiences are totally different, but long story short, it don't matter who's in the White House. America has been having the same old problems for a long mother. And we will continue. And we will continue to have these same fucking problems. That's why I can't wait to see who does win in 2024.

Because then people are probably really noticing like, shit, they're still talking about the same shit. V. Wade? Like, nothing is going to change.
