Starting point is 00:01:07 What is wrong with you? Why are you doing that? It's a big Knicks. It's a big Knicks win Thursday, bro. It is. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on.
Starting point is 00:01:15 Hang on. I was charging the iPad. Sorry. Sorry. Oh, my gosh. Ebrow. Go, Knicks. Go, Nick.
Starting point is 00:01:24 Let's go. Oh, Laura. You didn't even watch the game last time. It doesn't matter. Go do your go. Go do your go. Okay. Laura went to sleep.
Starting point is 00:01:35 Nah, listen, man. Got it done. Listen, you got to split at home. Now you go to San Antonio. Saturday night. They're obviously going to be very ready there. It is kind of hard to imagine. San Antonio loses all three games in San Antonio.
Starting point is 00:01:54 That's tough to imagine, but you also have to go ahead and glass half full and say, Knicks took two days. So take another one. Take another one. And let's wrap this thing up. But if not, they'll come back next week and try to get it done in game six. But either way, they did what needed to be done. The Trump mojo, or lack thereof, has been cleared from the building.
Starting point is 00:02:13 Thanks to real-life cast for, you know, burning the sage, Kazin. The sage has been burned appropriately and the Knicks are back in biz. Listen, if you're one of those Knicks fans, it's like, yo, I need them to go ahead and just bring it back to New York and get the win in New York and wrap this up. No. Get the win where you need.
Starting point is 00:02:33 I don't give a damn. No, no, no. Yeah, don't worry. You can party in New York just fine if they're in San Antonio. Matter of fact, we've been partying in New York just fine with them winning in San Antonio. So we don't need, and the way they've been acting around the garden, we're not even going to be able to have fun around the garden. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:02:47 And by the way, when I say we, I mean you, because I won't be there. But you feel what I'm saying? Correct. I'm with you 100%. Do not mess around. Get this thing done. Yeah. Wrap it up if you can.
Starting point is 00:02:57 Because here's the thing about these series that feel over it at 2-0 or 3-1 or even 3-0. All of a sudden, San Antonio wins on Saturday. Saturday and they get it to 3-2. Then when you get to game 6 back in New York, it's a must win. If you find yourself down early, the fans start sitting on their hands and getting nervous because they're like, if we lose,
Starting point is 00:03:19 it's 3-3 with only one game left back in San Antonio. Oh, my gosh. So it's, it's, these series are very hard. You don't want to go back to San Antonio game seven. You don't, that, we're not even discussing that. We got to wrap this up. Yeah, and you, and the thing is, I'm glad they bowed up last night.
Starting point is 00:03:34 Obviously, the way that. you know brunson was getting shoved around a couple of games ago by wemby about time they manned up didn't let that happen so shout out to your well and the thing that they did the best and this is what i always like about basket go ahead is i know you're going to do well no they put the ball in the thing more than the other team did and it resulted in more points that's right and they won the game big sports weekend though world cup world cup u.s plays friday night nine o'clock um and then how's the u.s team You pay attention pretty close. I mean, not close enough.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Okay. I feel like in the past. Close enough to know they suck. Got it. Not close enough to know like what the likelihood is that they will be decent. I think it's. And there's, wait, they suck or I thought they were like okay. No, no.
Starting point is 00:04:24 They're okay. But what I mean is they suck in that they always suck. Got it. But that's what I mean. I love them. I, it is the only thing I'm truly patriotic about. I truly care about U.S. soccer games. Well, you go hard for the women.
Starting point is 00:04:38 No, harder for the men. You go harder for the men. Yes, because the women win. It's so rare that America is an underdog. And like in the soccer. And the women always win. The women are awesome. And I, like the hockey team, you know,
Starting point is 00:04:52 A, they're not nearly as big an underdog, even though they were an underdog against Canada. They're not a huge underdog. And also just like, from a, how do I say this, ethos standpoint, I like the soccer community of America. Okay. Does that make sense? Ethos-wise, I like the kind of people that are into the soccer thing in America.
Starting point is 00:05:12 Lord, take note. Take note of ethos-wise. Let's see how much. We've got to hear that now. Okay, that's the word of the day. Because I don't want to make it political. Every time he says it, we go like word of the day. It's a drinking game.
Starting point is 00:05:22 Every time Roseburg says it. Because I don't want to say make it political, but I'll just say ethos-wise. I like the way the soccer community operates. So I get very into U.S. soccer. They're always an underdog. Let's see. I'm just curious if I look at the the actual team
Starting point is 00:05:37 how familiar am I familiar? You know anybody on the team. I don't think I know anybody. Hold on. Are they still charging like 100 bucks to get there on the Penn Station? Yeah. It's a very high price to get in the game. It's so lame.
Starting point is 00:05:52 You know Raina, who's Claudio Raina's kid. You don't remember Claudia Raina from the 94 team? I know the name, but I don't remember. I can't put a face to it. Claudia Raina was one of the faces of the 94 team, which was the first. you know, that World Cup in the U.S. in 94 really was big for soccer in America.
Starting point is 00:06:09 Somehow we still suck, but it was really big. And Claudio Raina was on that team. His son is on this team. Is there any other name? Oh, no. The reason we still suck in America as a football, you know, soccer situation is because our best athletes don't play soccer.
Starting point is 00:06:30 Yeah, that's generally it. which is interesting. Bottom line. It's just interesting. There's no money. In America. In America for it. And you've got to be the best ever to try to make it as an international star.
Starting point is 00:06:43 And then to be international as a star, you have to get into academies at like 11 years old. And it happens, but it's hard. It's rare. Not for what American kids. They're American kids who do it and they play in Europe. It happens. But again, it's rare. I don't know who on this team.
Starting point is 00:06:59 Well, I'll know it by the time we play a few games. but there are kids no question on this U.S. team who also play internationally. Yes, it happens. And there are best players. But are they the stars internationally? Right. Are they the, no, they're not the Brazilian players who are playing on their European teams. Speaking of which, I want to watch.
Starting point is 00:07:16 And shout to the African teams. You know, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Ghana. I feel like Congo made it. South Africa. Morocco. The reason why is because a lot of those guys who end up playing on the big European teams and being stars, right?
Starting point is 00:07:39 Because that's how they make their money, have gone home to play for their native teams. Which is pretty cool. Which is good for those teams to make it into the World Cup. So I think this year, correct me if I'm wrong, Lou, please. This year is the most African countries made it into the World Cup.
Starting point is 00:07:55 Oh, that's fired. Was the headline that I saw? Well, let's get back to the World Cup because a story that is not Nix related at all, but sounded like it was initially. And we didn't get to it yesterday is the Carmelo Anthony story. We should get to that too. Which is the kid down in Texas. Yeah. Who stabbed the football player who was bullying him.
Starting point is 00:08:15 That's what the story is. It depends who you ask. The prosecution says there was no bullying. The defense said he was bullied. So you mean to tell me a smaller kid was bullying? two twin football playing brothers who are bigger than him. That's what I'm supposed to believe. I don't know if you're supposed to believe it's bullying.
Starting point is 00:08:38 I really don't know. I don't know. I mean, listen, they're saying that. Check this out. On a rainy morning, Anthony, a student at Sentinel High School sat underneath the team tent belonging to Metcalfe School. Austin Metcalf is the kid who was killed. Multiple student witnesses testified that several athletes told
Starting point is 00:08:59 Anthony he needed to leave the tent. And he was there because it was raining and he didn't want to be in the rain. Yeah. Got it. When they told Anthony he needed to move, Anthony grabbed his backpack, reached inside, and warned, touch me and see what happens. Multiple witnesses
Starting point is 00:09:15 noted that Metcalf started saying, you don't have anything in that backpack. It's Frisco. And then it's what? It's Friscoe. I don't know what that means. Metcalfe then pushed and grabbed Anthony. To get him to move out of the tent, that's when Anthony reacted by pulling a pocket knife from his bag and stabbed him once in the chest before running away.
Starting point is 00:09:39 And then Metcalf tragically died. So here's my just quick thought on this. None of this sounds like what you want, right? This behavior overall does not sound good. It sounds like kids being a-holes. And then one kid pulled out a knife and stabbed a kid in the chest. to me what's most upsetting from a justice standpoint is not that Carmelo Anthony got 35 years.
Starting point is 00:10:06 So I imagine... To life, no? No, but it was... He was facing life. He was facing five to life. They gave him 35. I didn't hear without parole, though, right? So I assume eligible for parole half that time.
Starting point is 00:10:18 And I'm sure they're going to appeal. And they're going to appeal. So there's a world in which he does, you know, 12, 14. whatever um it sounds like a really horrible situation right um i'm i i can't imagine what would have happened that a kid who seemingly was a good kid otherwise in his life would go right to grabbing a knife and plunging it into someone's chest it's like such a dramatic thing to do i wonder what happened to me the more upsetting part is is just that we don't get and also factor in the kid uh carmello anthony who is now facing 35 years wasn't he also an athlete for the other
Starting point is 00:10:56 team? Yeah, it was a track meet. It was a track meet. So he was there. That's why I find the whole thing so odd in general. But he was in like the opposite. No, I understand that he was in the opposite key team's tent because it was raining fine. But you're there with your school, right? Because it was a track me. I would presume, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:14 And there's other kids there. Right. Right. Who are also there for the track me. Yes. So that's why it seems like there's more to the story of what prompted Carmelo to feel like I got to pull my, I got to protect myself here.
Starting point is 00:11:30 Yeah. I believe that that's what he was claiming that the twins were like way bigger than him. Right. And they try to grab him to get him out. And then that's when he turned around and grabbed his backpack. But in the obligatory let's hate Rosenberg, the white man who's not going to fall in line
Starting point is 00:11:46 with exactly maybe the emotion we're feeling at this time. I'm still trying to understand how even if these were a whole bigger kids picking on you or bullying you in some way or threatening you at a track meet under a thing. I'm still trying to understand how that would get life or death. I'm stabbing someone. I'm trying to understand that.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Well, the only thing I go to is that I live in Frisco, Texas. Can you tell me where that's near? What's that near on a map? And I live in America and I'm a black man, black kid, and white kids maybe are picking on me frequently because that's an atmosphere. That is an atmosphere in the United States of America. I don't know if you know this, but there's a history there. I hear you.
Starting point is 00:12:32 So that would be the only reason I feel like I got a, this is a life or death scenario. But you wouldn't you agree it would still feel unusual that that would feel like a life or death scenario? At a high school track. Yeah. Under the thing with other kids around. It's just hard. That's my overall point. But we're talking about kids.
Starting point is 00:12:49 And there's a heightened sensitivity where kids, you know, they're, you know, we're asking kids. to manage their emotions in ways in hostile environment sometimes. So sometimes that happens. I guess what I'm not interested in is trying to make it sound and figure out a way that it was normal that he plunged a knife into a kid's chest and the kid died. I doubt he planned to kill the kid.
Starting point is 00:13:08 It's horrible that the kid passed away. And I'm sure that wasn't his intention. I'm not saying the guy's a murderer, but he did something terrible. And there are repercussions for that. My issue is not that someone gets punished when that happens. My issue is that when it happens, it seems if the shoe is on the other foot
Starting point is 00:13:27 and you reverse the races is that the person wouldn't get time. That to me is the bigger issue. Well, because you're on the heels of the store owner Chow in South Carolina who chased a black kid down and shot him in the back. And is not going to face repercussions. And it's not going to face any repercussions.
Starting point is 00:13:41 That to me. So I think we get overly caught up. Over a bottle of water. Over a bottle of water. Well, and they're claiming, of course, in that case that he, the kid pulled out of gun. But he still running away. Make it make sense.
Starting point is 00:13:50 Why are you shooting at a 14-year-old who's running away? 130 yards. by the way. That's how far that's the distance. Yeah. Yeah. So explain that. So he he had a gun, but he dropped it. He never pulled it and pointed at at them. They're saying as he was running, the gun fell and then that's what he said. But the only witnesses are the Chow family that own the store. It's not on. Are you saying they're unreliable witnesses? Well, based on the guy who owns the store, Mr. Chow, yes, because he's been abusing people in that community. There's a history of it.
Starting point is 00:14:23 And they weren't able to use any of his past. Why not? I was what the South Carolina court decided. Yeah. So all I was trying to say is for people in the chat who I know who are already coming after me, it's not that I'm picking any sort of side in the Carmelo Anthony case. It's the problem is the constant injustice and how things are tried. I think you're saying the same thing everyone else is saying.
Starting point is 00:14:47 I don't think there are people who are saying that he should have been able to stab someone. that person died and there's no repercussions. I don't think that's what people are saying. Right. Okay. I think they're saying what you're saying, which is the repercussions for self-defense. They're not, they gave it, they gave him.
Starting point is 00:15:05 No benefit of the doubt. No benefit of the doubt. Right. And Chow gets complete benefit of the doubt. So this kid made him believe by two bigger twins. That guy was chasing a child. But the triggering part is it, both instances, it's black kids.
Starting point is 00:15:20 Right. Which there's a history in this. nation of black kids, specifically boys and young men being targeted and mistreated and abused by this system. And being treated like they're older than they are and getting no benefit of the doubt ever. That's right. And the Carmelo Anthony kid was tried as an adult. Of course you were. So. So that's, I think yours, I don't think anybody's removing you plunged a knife into someone's chest and there's going to be accountability for that. I don't, I haven't seen that. Okay. I'm only seeing that I see videos of people
Starting point is 00:15:54 at getting super emotional, which makes sense. So I haven't seen, in my world, my Algo, I haven't seen people being like, he should have got off. You're just saying more of a, of course it's. Of course it went this way. And they didn't even factor in self-defense. They went and listened to the prosecution. They didn't.
Starting point is 00:16:12 I mean, you had two twin boys who the description of them versus the Kate Carmelo Anthony is that they were physically larger than him and they're hovering over them. and they go to assault him. Right? So they go to physically remove someone, right? And obviously I immediately go to the failure of where, where is the high school thing, where the adults, what's going on here?
Starting point is 00:16:36 Yeah, yeah. The brain immediately goes to that. Right. But maybe it happened so fast. You know, kids are always getting in and stuff. But still, there's a history tied to this and that's what people are feeling. People are feeling. And then, yes, the South Carolina kid.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Yeah. And then there's chatter listen of like, a white jury. They're saying that the twins family had ties to somebody. I don't know if it was the judge, but it's all hearsay, though. It's all hearsay. Can we see the CNN clip?
Starting point is 00:17:04 I believe the journalist is Laura Coates, is her name. If you haven't been following the Carmelo Anthony murder trial out of Texas, you've got to pull up a chair because this case is heartbreaking and needs to be explored. So rewind back to April 2025, where we are at a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas. You got two 17-year-old student athletes, Carmelo Anthony and Austin Metcalf, and there was a sudden confrontation
Starting point is 00:17:29 under one of the team's tense. Minutes later, Austin is fatally stabbed in the chest. Now, the trial is officially underway, and both sides, they are telling completely different stories. The prosecution says that Carmelho basically taunted Austin into a fight and then plunged a knife into his chest, calling it totally unprovoked and senseless.
Starting point is 00:17:51 Now, the defense, defense, they are screaming self-defense. They argued that Austin and his twin brother were way bigger than Carmelo and that Austin actually shoved Carmelow first after telling him to get out of their school's tent. And they're saying that it was a split second reaction born out of pure fear. Now, Carmelo, he's being tried as an adult and faces up to life in prison, but not the death penalty. You got surveillance. Ellen's video that was just played in court, but it didn't clearly capture the actual stabbing. So witness testimony, that's going to be extremely crucial in this case. And in the end, the jury is going to have to decide, was it a case of unprovoked first-degree murder or a tragic split-second act of self-defense? Well, and that was obviously before the outcome. They decided.
Starting point is 00:18:45 So we know the outcome. Right. Yeah. Well, and that's the part, too, is that you know what the jury is going to decide. that's the problem it's a white jury a white kid who was tragically killed you know they are going to in frisco texas in texas they are going to see it only one way it's sad well and also the process i mean so so he just so a track athlete at a high school at a high school event just decided today i was going to go and antagonize two two brothers and i'm going to kill one today right that's an
Starting point is 00:19:20 And so murder one, it seems insane that murders on the table. But also, again, I keep going back to you, but how did you even, if you've lived your life as a normal kid, even if you've dealt with annoying white boy football players in Texas before and like, I've had my, I'm still trying to understand. You're 17, your whole life's in front of you. You went for the knife to the, like, it's such a, it's a bizarre circumstance. Like they didn't get into a fist fight. You went right to the, it's just all so weird to me.
Starting point is 00:19:50 And even in the best of scenarios Where there wasn't any racial component to this whatsoever I would still think for the fact that even And even if the kid the Metcalf kids did bully him and started I would still think on account of going for the weapon and stabbing You're still looking at several years in prison No, no, no, there's no way around you killed someone You killed and he died and again it was one stabbing and the kid died
Starting point is 00:20:14 You killed someone you're going to jail there's jail time I had a friend who I had a friend who got into a fist fight and he was being approached they the kids were drinking they were pushing on him talking crazy to him and one dude swung on him he dodged and he punched a dude and the dude fell hit his head and died yeah he went to jail i've heard of these scenarios he did like seven years or something like that well and and never forget in terms of how these different things are seen differently depending on what the jury looks like and what the kid looks like like when my brother-in-law was killed in that car accident in 2011 with two other kids three
Starting point is 00:20:56 18-year-olds or two 18-year-olds and one 19-year-old were killed in a car crash by one of their friends from high school who was wasted speeding and ran after he crashed the car he ran and the girl spencer's friend the girl haley who died absolutely could have been saved oh Oh my God. But he ran, so the police had to find it. She was medevac. She died. Left his friends to die.
Starting point is 00:21:28 That trial was like whatever, a year and a half later. Bro, they gave him like, three kids died. And again, I understand he didn't mean to, but you still were completely reckless and negligent. And you ran and didn't help them when it happened. I think he ended up serving like a year and a half, two, two and a half tops. They gave him time served for the year and a half of the trial. They gave him time served even though during the time served when he was on house arrest, he failed drug test. Still gave him the time served.
Starting point is 00:22:02 Oh my God. They put him in court. And this is Maryland. And this is Maryland. Suburban Maryland. Put him in court, put a huge suit on him. The suit like dwarfed him in size, gave him glasses which he'd never worn previously, like made him look. And by the way, I want to be clear.
Starting point is 00:22:17 I'm not a vengeful person. I feel I feel bad for him as a person also He was not doing well when it happened He clearly was not doing well after he probably won't do well for the rest And he probably won't ever this forever So I wish nothing ill on the person who did this is even as horrible as it was But my point is we sat there even though it was three white kids that were killed Still seeing the way a white kid gets treated by a white judge and a white jury and the level of sympathy that you just don't see for people of color
Starting point is 00:22:46 Even in that even in that CNN report started again Rassad. This is the beat of 250 and we're celebrating Black Music Month, a celebration of the legacy, creativity, and global influence of black music. Today we celebrate Big Mama Thornton, a powerhouse whose voice helped shape blues, rhythm and blues, and rock and roll. Before a rock became a global sound, its roots lived in black music traditions, born from struggle, survival, and spirit.
Starting point is 00:23:15 Big Mama Thornton stood at the center of the center of the world. of that evolution. In 1952, she recorded the original Hound Dog years before Elvis specially made it famous. Her version was raw, fearless, commanding, and full of attitude. Big Mama Thornton didn't just sing the blues, she lived them. Her influence can still be heard through generations of artists from Little Richard and Tina Turner to Prince and Lenny Kravitz. Today during Black Music Month, we honor one of music's true pioneers and architects of American music. Black Music Month Amplified Voices is sponsored by AARP.

If you haven't been following the Carmelo Anthony murder trifle, out of Texas, you got to pull up a chair because this case is heartbreaking and needs to be explored. So rewind back to April 2025 where we are at a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas. You got two 17-year-old student athletes, Carmelo Anthony and Austin Metcalfe. Pause. Look at the pictures.
Starting point is 00:24:32 Yeah, the handsome football photo. Yeah. And like the mugshot. And by the way, Carmelo's a he was an athlete. Yeah, there's no picture of him as an athlete. Yeah. And that's being done on CNN, where they're, in theory, trying to do just an honest story about it. And even the pictures they chose to use are of one where Carmelo Anthony looks like he's in a mugshot.
Starting point is 00:24:57 Yeah. Looks desperate and not well. And I saw other pictures of Carmelo Anthony. I've seen him smiling with his family. I've seen him doing normal things. And Austin Metcalfe, it's the photo they use is this all-American photo of him with his like helmet off, you know? So it's so that's the thing It's just all built into the it's in there
Starting point is 00:25:16 It's Ragoo It's Ragoo it's in the sauce This is America baby It happens all the time It's a super sad story And I want to reiterate I believe the way we're seeing The algorithm right now about
Starting point is 00:25:28 This story is Not that people feel like Carmelo Anthony should have Not been held accountable That's not what I believe we're saying I'm seeing people who are triggered by The History of this nation As it should be
Starting point is 00:25:42 triggered by what just took place a week ago in South Carolina. And obviously understanding based on that history that this kid Carmelo wasn't, he didn't get any grace. None. In the scenario. And the whole thing, let's be honest, we suck. Why is the solution to all of these things? How badly can we punish the teenager who did it? I understand the feeling of anger and pain that the family would have.
Starting point is 00:26:09 I don't understand why we govern our law. based on that though like it's obviously an overall tragedy and obviously punishment should take place but like why is the Metcalf family gonna be better off because Carmelo Anthony gets the book thrown at him why they decide he's a murderer what I think people do feel like that some people feel like finally yes they're gonna just to serve and at least that's a form of closure for them let me tell you know the kid that got killed has a twin brother yeah a twin No, I feel that part's very sad.
Starting point is 00:26:46 It's not going to make it better that this happens. But I have seen families who articulate, not in this case. I don't know what the Metcalf family who lost their son had to say. I haven't seen any clips of them. I haven't seen anything. And I can't personally pass judgment on how they want it to be. Yeah. But I have seen families who have attempted to articulate what you're saying.
Starting point is 00:27:08 Right. There were kids. Yeah. Things got out of hand. like I don't want this child who I lost my child. I can't imagine this other family's going to lose their child also. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:21 Right? Like, yes, they'll be able to go visit him, but he's in jail looking at 35 years. Like, he's gone. You're talking about if he were to serve the 35 years. He's coming out at 52 years old. You've lost your child. Yeah, that's it. I had a friend who was tied to a case because she, it was like her cousin, but removed a couple
Starting point is 00:27:40 times. Basically, it was a sad story of two teenage girls were out partying, drunk, and she basically lost control of the vehicle and killed her best friend. Killed her best friend. And in court, the parents were like, we don't want to lose two daughters. That's how they viewed it. They were like, you know that she didn't do this on purpose. It was a horrible mistake. But they were trying to advocate for the young lady who was behind the wheel. But they knew, but in that case, they were best friends. That's why. Yeah, yeah. They obviously knew there's no harm intended, just stupid, stupid behavior.
Starting point is 00:28:14 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I've seen cases like that, too, but, you know, it's just horrible, man. It's horrible. Listen, ELR, we are here. Please subscribe. Hit the hype button. Laura, you got some things in the rundown. You had that.
Starting point is 00:28:31 Carmel, Anthony, we decided to do that outside the rundown. You got other things you want to get to in the rundown? Yeah, man, there's a viral photo of Rick Ross that's causing a lot of conversation. I'll let you know why in the rundown. Let's get to it. Let's do it. Oh, now? Right now.
Starting point is 00:28:45 Let's go. Crazy. Going crazy on a Thursday. All right. So this was moving around yesterday, so we didn't get to it. But there's his photo, Rassan, if you could hook me up with a photo of Rick Ross. And I believe he's at an airport. And he's totally incognito.
Starting point is 00:29:04 He has his hoodie up. Uh-oh. He has glasses. Why are you hiding, Rose? He's definitely not trying. to be recognized. Why are you hiding, Rose? Hey. And, you know, people are trained to they're teasing him and they're talking,
Starting point is 00:29:18 because they were like, what happened to your private plane? But maybe it's in the shop. But you got buttoning you to boss. Why, you didn't get another charter? Maybe he didn't want to spend $50,000 when if he's going from Atlanta to Miami. Oh, you worried about spending $50,000? Wait, hold on. Ron Baskin. What's going on? Sir, you're not communicating. You don't have it? You looking for a photo?
Starting point is 00:29:39 Oh, is there, yeah. Oh, you never sent it over? Hold on, hold that. Oh, man. Oh, man. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Congratulations. Have you ever considered the fact that maybe?
Starting point is 00:29:47 I sent it to the wrong check. Sorry, that was my bad. Maybe Ross is having second thoughts about the private jet, and he's considering the environmental implications. Well, now, but remember, he's got the OVO hose on his tail. So OVO's going to run with this because Drake got a plane. Oh, 747. You're not seeing Drake on a, on a commercial.
Starting point is 00:30:07 No, he took Stunner Sandy out to Tarks and Kikos on. that jet you know what I'm saying Rose hey you have they saw your name plastered on the side of a plane where's the plane you should we should not see you in Jen pop so is it because he yeah because he's such a shit talker that's all it's it because to me I'm just like who cares you sure you're smart with your money just like T-Pain remember when T-Pay was like I will be on that commercial flight no Ross is not T-Pane yeah T-Pane is much more responsible well no no you guys are looking at it through the wrong lens once you talk all that shit yeah and you flaunt money and you the boss and all that,
Starting point is 00:30:43 when they catch you just chilling. Yeah, you could, you could literally be like, yo, I was just working out. Yo, we saw Ross.
Starting point is 00:30:50 He was mad, ashy and sweaty. Yo, what happened? You're supposed to be the boss. Why you got a regular t-shirt on? Right. That's what the internet does.
Starting point is 00:30:57 Well, you set the bar. You set the bar. It's fair. I, I've, Ross, I guess he never reached out about doing our show as part of the, the promo.
Starting point is 00:31:07 This show? Yeah. But we do. It would absolutely come on. We didn't reach out. What promo for what? He's been doing a pro promo run. Look, you see him?
Starting point is 00:31:18 Bose. There's another one where you could actually see his face. That gate is nasty. Where is he? That's why he's hiding. That gate is, oh. Now look, now look. PUTrid.
Starting point is 00:31:27 We could do all of the, you know, maybe he's saving money, maybe the plane's in the shop. That plane that has his name on the side of it or has his name on the side of it. It could be a scenario. Where are you going? And that plane, because there are, that plane was so big.
Starting point is 00:31:42 It can't fly. There's certain airports you can't even land that. By the way, do you see what that air? That wasn't JFK. That airport. Let me see that picture again? Small airport. It looks like a small, raggedy.
Starting point is 00:31:55 Look at the floor. What was last time you saw that floor in an airport? I mean, I mean, you got some of those in New York City, bro. I mean, yeah. No, they don't. Not going to talk. What? They do.
Starting point is 00:32:04 You ain't not the new LaGuardia. That ain't. All right. But to your point, bro, there are some smaller airports who cannot. handle it right are you seen right there in the corner crowd that's a crowded gate you know that is that what you're looking at right there is why when I travel alone because when you're with the baby you got to do everything in the slow way but when I'm on my own that is why I time my I will sooner risk
Starting point is 00:32:30 missing the flight then stand around in a frigging gate I I'll go I wouldn't even stand right I wouldn't sit right there I'd be sitting somewhere or standing I just like I go sit and then I'll walk up when it's my time right I'm waiting spending you but that but that airport might be that small I don't know where we don't know where in some people but anyway let's focus on the main thing the reason it's it was trending was because you flaunt excess and now they caught you being regular lacking me anyway um in other news that's how I go my guy Rose A he's coming here this summer by the way I think uh you just
Starting point is 00:33:05 hit him he'll come on the show all right like it's not that he's done so much weird. Do you reach out to people to come on the show? I do. I haven't reached out to Rick Ross in a long time. Ross is still Rick Ross. He's still ready for the jokes. I want to call Laura out.
Starting point is 00:33:20 Okay, always when we ask him to. What was the last time we had Ross? Whenever we asked, yeah. Because I didn't ask, did you ask? No. I haven't asked nothing. Matter of fact, they reached out to me to come. He put out a book recently.
Starting point is 00:33:33 They asked me to come, like, host his book sign like a couple of weeks ago. I couldn't do it. Well, but he's definitely like. And oh, by the way, when I saw him at the verses was like, yo, love what y'all are doing, love the pivot. Like, he's, all right, good. We should get him. Because he did.
Starting point is 00:33:49 My point I was trying to make was actually less about us. And more that you haven't seen the wacky clips. He's been, he did every viral thing there is to do. I haven't seen it. I don't know what your algorithm. You didn't see any of the stuff. I didn't see the wacky clips either. Louis, am I, am I, miss?
Starting point is 00:34:04 You saw it, right? He didn't see the wacky clips either. Y'all haven't seen that Ross did every single. thing there is to do. He ate bagels on the street. Okay. He did right wing podcast. He did everything. I haven't seen none of it. Everything. He's done 25 things. And this was for the book? Was this for the book? I can't even tell. I think this might have been for the book. album was over the last three weeks. There's no new album yet. There's a new single. There was a couple of things. So that it's for the book, I guess, in the single. But he's been outside quite a bit over
Starting point is 00:34:33 the last few weeks. All right. Doing wacky stuff. Well, guess what? Not here. He better get back on that plane and they're going to keep coming for him. Let's see. He's got an album out July 17th. It's called Set in Stone. And the only song has been released is that joint I love with French Montana and Max B where they use the, what is it, sitting on Chrome.
Starting point is 00:34:53 Yeah, yeah. That was fire. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love that. In other news, this is reported by the BBC. This woman, Jennifer N, is suing Kanye over sexual assault that happened in a music video. in 2010. Check this out.
Starting point is 00:35:09 I didn't know what was going to happen. I was given no direction. I was just told to sit in this chair. A model has accused Kanye West of sexually assaulting her by choking her and forcing his fingers into her mouth on the set of a music video in 2010. Now, Kanye's lawyers don't deny that this happened, but they say it was part of an artistic performance and that the model Jennifer Arne did not object to it while it was happening. In an exclusive interview with the Fame Under Fire podcast, Jen told me that she wasn't aware that West was going to be on set that day. Then when he arrived, he picked her out for a one-on-one scene. It started where he went up to my face, and he was, like, smearing my makeup on my face. I didn't see any tears, I'm sorry. Okay, did you need a minute?
Starting point is 00:35:56 Yeah, sorry. It's okay. Smearing the makeup all over my face in a way that just felt wrong. He started sticking his fingers in my mouth. and I feel like he was like trying to touch as much as he could and I was actively my tongue was like like hiding from him and he just like found everything now Jen told me that Kanye didn't speak to her before during or after the interaction but that when he was done he shouted this is our iron Picasso and then abruptly left
Starting point is 00:36:35 and we contacted Kanye for his comment of course and we haven't heard back but in one of his legal filings his lawyers wrote yay staged and intense and provocative the actual performance, which paralleled scenes in American Psycho, including acts to emulate forced oral sex. They added that the plaintiff, Jen, may have experienced some difficulty breathing. Now, Jen filed her lawsuit under the Gender Motivated Violence Act in New York, which temporarily extends the statute of limitations for sexual assault survivors. It's now up to a judge to decide if this case will proceed to trial. And then, like, the first comment on BBC is a woman named Grace Woodward. And she says, I was the stylish,
Starting point is 00:37:13 the main artist on the video the video was pulled because of it believe women this happened in 2010 no no no i i know and she wants and she this is criminal or this is uh civil or well it said it said it said it said the statute now extends that would make me think you could still be criminal yeah so you walk up so i'm i'm just trying to understand like this is bonkers to me it was a video filming Kanye walks on the set without any convoy assaults this person she clearly did not know
Starting point is 00:37:57 what she was about to be a part of yeah he yells at heart he goes it's art on Picasso and and leaves that's what was and his team's response was yes it did happen right but it was all
Starting point is 00:38:13 part of the plan. So they're basically saying that she knew that this was going to happen. And somewhere in there... They said she couldn't breathe. That part, that part was the weirdest part. I'm like, wait, you're saying she may have struggled to breathe? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:26 So they planned it to happen. I guess that's what my brain is going. They're not acting like this didn't happen. No. She is 1,000% like, oh my God, what the fuck? Excuse my language. What just happened? Somewhere in there...
Starting point is 00:38:40 Well, so not what just happened 16 years ago. Or in the moment that it did happen, right? I guess what I'm trying to understand is like she didn't know that this is what she's basically saying. That's what she's saying. And they're saying, no, that's what we plan to do. Right. And the video, but the person who shot the video. They obviously didn't like it or thought something of it because they didn't put it out.
Starting point is 00:39:03 Exactly. Right. But there's a lot of reason things don't come out though. But no, but you just said. So this is the first comment on this BBC video on IG is this woman who says she's Grace Woodward. A verified account, she said, I was the stylist for the main artist on the video. The video was pulled because of it, believe women. So I'm assuming it's because of this.
Starting point is 00:39:22 It should be listen. I just think so. You can't just say believe. I don't want to focus on that. It's an important piece of it. Well, no. Because they're not even saying it didn't happen. There's nothing to not believe.
Starting point is 00:39:32 They're not denying it. No, no, but there is one piece here, right? And I'm sorry, I don't want to say that callously. Of course you, I just think that phrase is a complicated thing to discuss. But that specific thing is the believe piece is, Is she really saying she had no idea? And he blindly assaulted her? Or is she lying?
Starting point is 00:39:50 And 15 years later, Kanye's a mess. And she goes, I can get an easy $5 million. That could possibly be true, what you're saying. However, they're still not denying it didn't happen. But so what? That's not what the argument is. Right. So, but for a judge to proceed,
Starting point is 00:40:07 somewhere along the line, someone would have to say, hey, no, we told so-and-so we were going to do this. They hired someone. Yeah. We walked in the room, did the thing we planned to do, and left. So it wouldn't even be on, I guess Kanye, if in his mind, he was like, y'all, I need a girl because I'm going to walk in and I'm going to do X, Y, Z, and then we're going to leave. Because they're, once again, not denying that it happened.
Starting point is 00:40:31 They planned to do this. Yeah, because if that was a scenario, you would think your producer or someone would be like, hey, he's going to walk in. So, two minutes, it's going to happen. It sounds terrible, and this girl is mortified and rightfully so based on what we're seeing. Somebody dropped the ball on communicating to her. And according to his lawyers, all I'm saying is according to his lawyers, because they're not denied it, it didn't happen. Right. They plan to do this.
Starting point is 00:40:55 The reason I'm sounding a little more, I'm questioning a bit more than I normally would when I hear a story like this. And I think, oh, my God, I'm appalled. This is awful. is because like when you hear a sexual assault story someone on a date something really happened something horrible happened they claim they say they were raped and years later that's like this really deep emotional thing and they buried it and all the reasons different things this to me is odd in that this wasn't some private situation it was very public everyone saw it you're saying this very terrible thing happened to you at a work environment and and you walked away from it and 15 years later you're now like on second thought that was bad It wasn't bad then? Or maybe it was and she just was traumatized and she didn't have the ends to find help to tell her story. But in the moment, the people who hired you just happened in front of them. Yeah, but how many times have you heard of these weird scenarios happen in music videos, especially when it comes to Kanye?
Starting point is 00:41:53 Or video girls being assaulted in other things and them not feeling like. But this feels the video girls assaulted is even more complex because they're framing it as a party and now people are actually partying and drinking and what if it's art and what if it's just gross. But this seems like it was the focal point of the video As we're gonna do this weird thing. What I'm focused on is she may not have known that. That's what I'm saying, because I think I agree with Ebro. It's the miscommunication. Nobody said, hey, this is gonna happen.
Starting point is 00:42:20 The scene is coming up. He's gonna reenact you getting deep throated with his hands. Yes. And we're gonna film it. Are you okay with that? You gotta prepare people. I just, I'm trying to understand a world in which that could happen.
Starting point is 00:42:32 And you wouldn't immediately, if you weren't prepared for it, like practically gag. and say what the fuck is going on here. I'm just trying to understand it. But I think what happens is, or maybe she looked that way, and that's why they didn't want to use it
Starting point is 00:42:45 because she looked so appalled. Maybe she freaked out afterwards, and they're like, all right, we're not going to use that scene. And also, people want jobs. And there's people who are, like, afraid to... Well, the power dynamic is such that they... The power of, like, so the production company doesn't want to lose...
Starting point is 00:43:04 16 years. How many years ago? 16 years ago, 16 years ago, yeah. 16 years ago production company I was one of those business with Kanye West. 16 years ago, a young person who's trying to get there up and come up and send the game doesn't want to like, I was hired to do a job and now the job went bad. I'm never going to get hired again.
Starting point is 00:43:23 Like these are real scenarios that people are absolutely dealing with. So, you know, yeah, 16 years ago, people didn't feel as empowered as they do right now. And even now, you have, for. For sure. The way we're carrying this discussion, which is that people are going to go. This is why people, because look, you're questioning her. And that goes back to my issue with the phrase, believe women. Because even though we're having this moment of reckoning that has been happening and is well-deserved and needs to continue to happen, that doesn't mean the only way to discuss these things are, well, that's it.
Starting point is 00:43:59 She said it. Believe her, it's over. Move on. And she now needs to pay or go to jail. There has to continue to be a conversation. For this particular combo, that's why. That's why immediately my brain was like going haywire because it was like, well, the lawyers aren't even saying. It didn't have that. To me, it's more on his team.
Starting point is 00:44:16 This is whoever hired this person is really at fault. But you know, Kanye could have also left his team in the dark because he's a lunatic. But once again, his lawyers are still. We didn't know you were going to go stick your hand in this woman's mouth. But the lawyers are saying, hey, yeah. She could have had some breathing issues with. the way we had planned to do this thing. So the real question, and I guess the nuts and bolts would be,
Starting point is 00:44:40 what did she sign prior to doing it? And what did she agree? What did she think this was going to be? Yeah, we don't know any of that. Because think about the fact that pornography is made every day, right? And within the making of pornography, there have to be moments that happen in those scenes. And someone's like, oh, this isn't my favorite thing.
Starting point is 00:44:56 Right? Like, but at the same time, there's probably not recourse for doing much about it because it's all within the confines of what you agreed to do. Well, I've never been involved in porn. But you did. I mentioned snuff films earlier this week, but I have watched. I have watched. I can ask my friend also.
Starting point is 00:45:11 Yeah, I, I, but no, they agree. They, they know what's going to happen. For the most part, yeah. There are things that are absolutely not happening. Yes, I know. Yeah. What I'm saying is I'm sure within, you know, if it's a wild orgy scene, there could be a moment that you found in the second. Like, ooh, this is not exactly what I wanted.
Starting point is 00:45:30 Now, maybe you have the person stop doing it or whatever. But what I'm saying is, and they're like, you'll chill, yeah. Sure. But it may. also be that when you sign the paperwork, there are certain things happening. That you wave all your rights so you can do whatever you want.
Starting point is 00:45:43 But within the parameters of what you're doing, weird stuff can happen. You know what I mean? I don't know. I have no clue. It just all, it all sounds bizarre, but Kanye is bizarre. How many bizarre stories have we heard?
Starting point is 00:45:53 But I look at his team because I was like, I feel like they should have prepared her. But I also look at the lawyer's statement in response to this news story, which is not denial. But again, how could they deny it when they know the physical thing happened?
Starting point is 00:46:06 The whole piece is, whether or not it was talked about before or not. Right. That's the whole thing. That's the whole thing. And I'm saying that that would be there out, which is like, basically, we asked for this, and we showed up and assumed everybody was on the page. We didn't handle the production. We hired a company to do the production. I think we can all agree on one thing. Kanye is not Picasso.
Starting point is 00:46:28 Congratulations. You played yourself. And that wasn't Picasso. This is a beat of 250, and we're celebrating Black Music Month, a celebration of the legacy, creativity, and global influence of black music. Today we honor Frankie Knuckles, the legendary godfather of house music. Frankie Knuckles helped transform black rhythm into a worldwide movement. At Chicago's iconic warehouse club, during the late 1970s and early 1980s, Frankie blended disco, soul, gospel, R&B, and electronic sounds into something entirely new.
Starting point is 00:46:57 That sound became house music, joyful, spiritual, emotional, and free. House music was created by black, Latino, and LGBTQ communities who turned the dance floor into a space for expression, connection, and liberation. What began in Chicago quickly traveled around the world, influencing club culture, pop music, dance music, and what we know is EDM. Frankie Knuckles was more than a DJ. He was a visionary who changed music forever. During Black Music Month, we proudly celebrate its groundbreaking sound, influence, and lasting
Starting point is 00:47:26 cultural legacy around the globe today. Black Music Month Amplified Voices is sponsored by AARP. Game is faster they could. It's been too long, cowboy. from Disney and Pixar. So that's Lily Pat. Where are you? Some sort of old man toy?

Starting point is 00:48:31 He's basically ripping off the scene from a movie in his video and then just yelling, I'm Picasso. It's like, no, you're an asshole, bro. Yeah. You're just an asshole. You can use that in a bar. That's a bar.
Starting point is 00:48:45 What? You're not Picasso, you're just an asshole. Yeah. That goes. And the whole believe women thing, I think it's believe women enough to investigate. Well, that's a great phrase. I agree. And I, and I, and I hear you when you say you listen to women.
Starting point is 00:48:59 I prefer that. Because it is, because there just have been ones like we brought up. Yeah. Guys, I want to be clear. I am, I couldn't be any further on the side of, men are disgusting and cause all the worst things in the world. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But there are, you do have to be mindful of the specific situations as we brought up this
Starting point is 00:49:16 week with Aziz, where the whole believe women as a statement you did. Everyone at first, like, well, we have to just believe her. She'd say, and then you got into it, you're like, yeah, I believe you had a shitty date with a guy who I wouldn't want to go out with again. Right. But I don't believe it's a situation where a guy's career should now be, I mean, he has basically an asterisk next to him for the next seven years. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:37 So, like, I just found the term believe women. It's saying you don't like the phrase makes you sound horrible. But if we're having a nuanced conversation, which we have the privilege of doing on the ELR show every day. Well, not until this might clip up that last portion. Oh, God. He hates believe. He doesn't believe women. Oh, you're done.
Starting point is 00:49:54 I know. I believe women when it's true. I think listen to women or to Laura's point, believe them enough. Are you mansplaining? Are you mansplaining to that community, how they should be? That community, the women? Yeah. to that community, how they should articulate their feelings.
Starting point is 00:50:10 No, and the fact of the matter. It sounds like that's what you're doing. And what Laura just said is that she agrees. And by the way, I've had mad women say that same thing to me. Because they read the story sometimes. I'm like, this doesn't sound like. Hopefully they show up on the internet in these comments. I got so many things to be roasted for already in this one episode.
Starting point is 00:50:26 Oh, roast? You bringing up a roast now? Look at you. You went too far. Oh, God. Oh, God. Are you doing with the rundown? Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:34 Done. What about that weird ass Drake story I said, you guys? I didn't, I opened it. It's weird. I thought it was weird. You want to hit lowdown? You know how you said, you know how you send links in IG? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:50 And then when you click on the link, it might not actually take you to the thing. And then you have to care enough to do it again and quit the app. So I clicked on the link and all I saw was something that looked like a woman in like blue satin with some crazy makeup on. Was that the thing? Yep. So I thought it was the wrong thing. And I immediately closed it because I was like, this looks crazy.
Starting point is 00:51:09 It was the right thing. Oh, and so what was? Oh, we have it. Oh, you guys put it in. You got to go back and pause. So the quick thing is that the girls, obviously is nice for what's playing. And it says when Drake DMs you and says like he's going to buy you a car. And then she posts the DM, which I was trying to get him to pause.
Starting point is 00:51:30 So you can read it. Pause. Champagne Popper. What's up, love? No way. this can't be real high oh my god yeah i've seen you on my feet and i had a proposition for you i'm deaf Esther said but it's better if you text my number a phone number okay and you didn't believe it then he bought you a call get ready to pause again last gun
Starting point is 00:51:54 pause okay you'll see that lame ass con we buy your real car very dead ass yeah i'm not even bullshitting you can go right now Please, I would love you forever and ever, so you don't love me now, huh? I didn't say all that. When you come in and get me, I'll be on my way soon. Don't have me waiting this time, love. This time. Oh, don't me be waiting this time.
Starting point is 00:52:21 So that implies there's, oh. And now she's in a Corvette, and there's the Corvette in the parking line. And then I went and looked at some of her other stuff, and she's talking about being homeless, and the content's mad weird. She has this, okay, there is this. By the way, those DMs could be 1,000% fake. It could all be fake, right?
Starting point is 00:52:42 It could all be fake. 100%. But she's one of those girls who plays into like a certain type of fetish. It's like this weird because when you look at her videos, she has a small waist and a big ass butt and big ass thighs. And she wears like the fish net. She dresses sexy for that type of, I'm going to label it wrong so don't come at me. But it's like anime.
Starting point is 00:53:03 You know what I mean? Feeling like. Like, anime porn? No, because that's actual anime that's porn. No, it's like a... No, but the body type is exaggerated. Yes, and the way you dress, and there's a term for it. I just don't know the term.
Starting point is 00:53:18 You don't know about the lifestyle, but there's a whole fetish community around it. Okay. But it could all be fake. I guess the point is it could all be fake, right? Well, also because that Corvette, what Corvette is that? It's not the new one. one. That Corvette is like a 10-year-old Corvette.
Starting point is 00:53:40 It's not the new one. So Drake bought you a used Corvette. Is that what I'm supposed to believe? It doesn't feel right, right? Yeah, if I was Drake, I would have my team come out. If that was fake, I'll have my team come after all those people. Boy, I just want to hit you. Well, you played the Algo.
Starting point is 00:53:55 That's your beloved Algo. That's not my Algo. You want to see what's on Ebro's Algo. It ain't that. I don't know. Which I'm glad I didn't open that up because you know, you know, when you open up the wrong Yeah, then you're gonna get started. Now it sends you down the...
Starting point is 00:54:08 Oh, man. You want Ebroz, I'll go. Go to clip 24 for me, Rassan. There we go. Taking a look. Okay. Oh, my God. This is so good.
Starting point is 00:54:17 I didn't see this. A viral joke on social media to turn Trump's White House U.S. Fightsy fight into the gayest pride party in U.S. history is becoming real as hundreds of gay men are actually buying tickets and planning to show up, shirtless, glittered up, and very flim white.
Starting point is 00:54:31 This is amazing. But the problem is... What? It sounds very fine. and I love it, except they're gonna, if it actually happens, they're then gonna be running into the crowd that's actually going there.
Starting point is 00:54:44 Oh, the hateful, homophobic. Let me tell you some. Let me tell you something. I don't think they care. They would just- What are you saying gay men can't fight? Is that what you're asserting? You're asserting they're gonna run into a crowd
Starting point is 00:54:57 that's gonna wanna knuckle up with a bunch of gay dudes at a UFC fight? Good luck. I wanna see it. I don't. I just wanna say I don't wanna see it, but I hear what you're saying. saying also. No, no, no, that's not a good idea.
Starting point is 00:55:07 Don't assume because somebody's gay, they can't throw hands. I'm saying the crowd that I've seen at MMA events before, the muscle bound affliction shirt guys, there are some that really do get into this. And you're assuming they're straight, by the way. No, they're just not flamboyant glitter. They're wearing affliction shirts. You're right? They're just quietly on Grindr.
Starting point is 00:55:25 Yeah, I don't know if they're on privately on Grindr. Maybe they'll be into it. Oh, this thing is got lit. Because not only is the fight, but now it's all. I don't know. We can all tussle. Oh, I love. We can.
Starting point is 00:55:35 That is a great bit though. Did you see that there's a lawsuit? No. There's a lawsuit. These two guys filed a lawsuit in Virginia stating that the concept of the White House fight is illegal because it's going to be profiting for specific. It's going to be taking public funds in a public space. I like it. And profiting for private people's margins.
Starting point is 00:56:01 And Trump himself is now an investor. in UFC. Yeah, no, this is all corruption. So he'll be winning. He'll be making money. Brands will be making money on the people's dime. That's right.
Starting point is 00:56:12 That's illegal. But by the way, welcome to America. The last, I mean, there's obviously corruption that's been in the government for the longest. I mean, that's part of the nation's in there.
Starting point is 00:56:22 It's like ragu. Right. But this level of overt corruption that we're seeing under this administration, this, you know, one of these things is going to, you know, knock over the house of cars.
Starting point is 00:56:34 So they're going to be at the White House. till one in the morning on the lawn with that big thing. I think so. Which means Trump is going to be sleepy time. Bobos. He's going to be out. I mean, he's going to be out.
Starting point is 00:56:48 Yo, I didn't know Trump and Jazz had this and come. Just going to sleep in the middle of the event. Oh, and they're both from Queens. Yeah, your girl's going to get you when she uses. She's not going to like that. You may never recover from that.
Starting point is 00:57:01 That's what I'm saying. And Natalie. Natalie's from Queens too. Yeah, you may, well, She's stuck. Jazz. Well, listen, she should be mad at you. You're the one who came on here the other day and revealed that on Monday night, the holiest of nights, that incredible game.
Starting point is 00:57:15 You're the one who said, she said, I'm going to bed. Yeah, but I didn't compare her to Trump. I didn't put her in the same sentence. You might be finished. You might want to text her to apologize. Oh, God. Damn, but I'll text her later. But I like in comment.
Starting point is 00:57:28 Oh, speaking of. Oh, what do you got? It's time. Uh-oh. Watch, Father's Day? The handoff. is official. That's right.

Starting point is 00:58:10 She was like, I'm handing it down. So Kenza wore it. And then afterwards, I was like, I got to hand this down. So I handed it over to Salasi. Salasi walked it. By the way, we saw the photos. They came out, the video. Adorable.
Starting point is 00:58:22 And now it's time. Now, the handoff is official. Wow, this is a very... We are putting the Gucci raincoat into the Rosenberg household. Do you think this will fit her now? Yeah, maybe. But Salasi had a very...
Starting point is 00:58:35 before it actually fit fit. Yeah. Wow. But has she outgrown this? Yeah, it's a struggle. These sleeves. These strings are struggling. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:43 This is so cute. Because it's so cute. It's so ridiculous. And it's like, what can you do? I'm not going to keep it there forever. No, I'm going to pass it down. Wow. This is fire, guys.
Starting point is 00:58:53 This is going to be a very, I mean, listen, Jazz may be finished with me, but her and Natalie's are still good. That's right. And Natalie's going to be so excited by this. So I would imagine that in the coming weeks, there may be a picture that pops up. Oh, it's definitely gonna be a photo shoot. Yeah, there's gonna be a photo shoot.
Starting point is 00:59:08 Well, and there's a rainy day or two. It might be a little hot, but there's a rainy day or two. That's the problem is the nice rainy, the rain coat on a hot rainy day. It's not good. Yeah, but it's light though. It is like, and Natalie does have a jacket. Here you want, though.

Starting point is 00:59:53 Yeah. It was going to get lost to the stuff. It also shows that Ebro's really been, you know, him and jazz are really focused on the getting things out of the house. Yeah. That's what it says to me. No. Like, no,
Starting point is 01:00:01 like it's time to keep it. It could still be better. It could still be better. Well, you just went crazy at the Nike store. Well, that's what I mean? So what's coming out? A lot. I'm in trouble over at the crib.
Starting point is 01:00:13 Yeah, because once you do a trip like that, a sale. I'll tell you how in trouble I am. I found a sale Nike, so I don't know if you guys have noticed. I've been having like Nike drive fit on different hats. It's on the couch. Folded, the new stuff for like a week now. Because you've got to empty the drawers? Because I didn't want to take it into the clot.
Starting point is 01:00:32 Well, because remember, I don't have drawers. Oh, you just have a closet. I get dressed on the other side of the house. Right. I don't have. No. So in my bedroom, I have to walk across the house.
Starting point is 01:00:43 So if we have company, I have to put on clothes, walk across the house, bring the clothes I'm going to wear back from the closet that's actually in Salasi's room. And then take a shower and get dressed in the room. Right. Otherwise, I could take a shower and walk across the house in my drawers, but I still got to walk across the house and get dressed in the other side. Right. So things have to come. out before you can actually settle this stuff down. That's right. Yeah, I've been that too.
Starting point is 01:01:07 Because we bought a few things recently too and I'm like, hey, babe, it means we do have to get rid of stuff. That's how it goes. Well, and I'm terrible at the whole like it's summer. I'm going to pack up all this winter shit, put it in storage and make room. It's a great move, but it's hard to do. I do it. I do it. Of course you do. You're very disappointed. Yeah, I do it. I'm just, because I don't want to go back.
