I am E, bro. That is Laura, and that is Rosenberg. Good morning, Rosenberg. We got your feet locked in. I think that we're working. Do I sound better than last week? Yeah, I think so. We got to get our on-the-road gear better. Now that we're in the stew. The new stew, our on-the-road presentation needs work. Yeah, yeah.

Well, this one in particular is my bad. I'm in a place called Atlantic City. It is a miracle that you were able to hear me at all, but I'll do better. There you go. That's all you could do. Did you have, what did you, you had a family maneuver you had to make? Was it, is the baby snow, small apartment, you on the road starting to eat away at the, at the, at Paradise? Yeah, I would say Paradise closed up shop a little while ago.

Oh, God. And I won't say that Paradise reopened here in Atlantic City, but I will say we had a little, we had a nice time in Maryland doing my family stuff, and then we've been with Natalie's brother and family in here in Atlantic City. So, yeah, we just needed a little, needed to take advantage of the three-day weekend, just a bit. There you go. Hopefully everybody else got a little three-day weekend.

If you did not, I mean, maybe you're running around the roads here in the Tri State. the snow is trying to melt. The temperatures may get up to like mid-40s, they're saying today. If the sun cracks through these clouds, they're saying we can see 50 degrees outside. 50 degrees. Come on. Whoa. That's what they're saying.

Come on. Yes. We have to deal with something, a memoriam, a rest in peace to start the program. A legend has passed. How old was Jesse Jackson? 84 years old? 84 years old, man. A full life, a legendary life, an iconic life lived,

civil rights activists, ran for president twice. The first black man to run for president in 1984. It came in third. I wonder if the Democrats look at 1988 and wonder why they went with Michael Dukakis. Do the Democrats look back at that and go, yeah, no, we botched that. Well, it didn't go great, so I did not go great. go great but based on how Obama went and where we're at where we're at right now maybe

the Democrats knew something because in 88 the United States wasn't in a better place were they you don't say facts they would not have gone well but now let's let's create some some space for this classic Jesse Jackson clip as we say rest in peace to the late great Reverend Jesse Jackson maybe poor let's kill we protect that we stand together what time is that There it is. No more just to both. What time is it?

There it is. Wow. Classic clip. Yeah. Reverend Jesse Jackson went on, obviously, to form the push movement and the Rainbow Coalition, which combined later on. He continued to work. Even he had a neuro, a degenerative neuro disorder or something like that.

I believe so. She was a part of his health issues that he was living with. Also, you know, Reverend Jesse Jackson was there when Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was shot in Memphis. So, I was. Yeah, he was an icon, man, and a phenomenal orator and a great leader, and he continued to work up until he couldn't really move anymore. I mean, there's pictures of him still working after he got his diagnosis, 2019, 2020. Yeah. Still outside.

He would have been 80 years old at the time. So, and living to, or excuse me, 82. I mean, 84 years old is a life. Yeah. You know what I mean? God bless his family, sending them so much love. I think sometimes. He, Jesse, I'm sorry, Laura.

I was going to say that Jesse had a great career and a great, like, I feel like over time, Ebro, he only got respected more and more. Like the Jesse Jackson evolution aged incredibly well. He kept doing things like permanently, the Rainbow Coalition, was such a thing like when we were kids. In addition to the running for president twice, as you mentioned, being side by side with Dr. King, the SCLC, he was just, he was a fixture. There was a time when I know a lot of people thought that his son, Jesse Jr.,

was really going to be like the next, the next huge black politician, and he didn't end up continuing to pursue it. But now he was a great man. And it seemed like this day was coming soon, but when it hits you, it's still a shot. It's heavy, and it's also a realization, like, I found myself thinking, you know, how me at 50 years old, right, and where we are today in the United States, how much there is information, evidence of corruption, evidence of the white supremacy and racism that runs rampant through our institutions. It's on full display, right? and it feels like more people are informed and awake. However, it feels also like we're in the worst situation we've been in since the 80s.

Yep. Yeah. Yes. Right? Since the crack epidemic. Yeah. Since, you know, the Reagan era. 9-11 and the Bush thing was tough, but it wasn't this divide.

Obviously, it brought us together in some ways. what we're seeing right now what we feel right now is very divisive and he had to die Dr. Jesse Jackson had to die not knowing if the democracy is essentially going to make it

like he definitely passed away thinking oh my God are we going to go back to a time that I remember and was even worse than I remember that had to be there the democracy yes but also just civil rights

period civil rights has slid back Everything he fought for has been... Backwards. Has been returned to the B.S. Yeah. Backwards. And for all of that...

It's sad. Yourself. Yeah, big one. Congratulations. You plagued yourself. A big one for all of us. As we sit and we remember the Reverend Jesse Jackson. Rest in peace.

Now, it was a busy weekend. You know, also passed away this weekend. I think Robert Duvall. Yeah, 95. Saw that. 94, 94. Yeah, 95. Apocalypse now, the Godfather. Godfather, too, of course.

Network. He was in the natural Robert Duvall. Legend. Bro. The consignly air. Once you hear you don't even remember me. It's like you, you made it, bro. I mean, I don't know, guys.

I don't know. Like, 90s is like how. That's a whole. guys. But ever, but the thing is every 90s, every 90s is different Laura. Like there are 90s. I was talking to a friend this weekend whose mom is 98. And she's still she's mentally talking about talking is there. God bless so like it so but it sounds like when you hear someone dies in their 90s you're you act like as if people are just kind of like I piece but I mean if you were good it's still really sad like you're out here chilling one day. You're right.

You know, it's hard. It's crazy. The only people that are going to live to my 90s, I'm going to tell you all right now is Issa, Salasi, and Jazz. Because the rest of y'all, y'all, y'all going to be sick of me if I'm 90-something. Y'all going to do all the interviews. I've told you, I'm doing all the interviews. I'm telling all the interviews.

I'm telling all the talking. Y'all going to be sick of me. And we already don't listen. It's going to be a lot. Listen, the best thing you can hope for is that I just don't have a memory. Because right now I remember too much. You're going to be so loose. Oh, man.

to being old because you've been dreaming of being old your entire life. Oh, I love it. I'm excited to be here. You're just going to be just saying people's business. Oh, man. Oh, I'm telling it all. Not true business, by the way. What did you say, Rosa Burke?

It won't always be true business. See, he's already trying to look. He's already trying to create the narrative already. So that way, when I start telling my stories, because y'all still think Quincy Jones was lying in that article. You didn't want to believe it. I don't think he was lying. You didn't want to believe it.

about who was in the hot tub and who was playing with it whose booty you guys didn't want to believe it i believed all of it now that the epstein files are out i don't know why y'all not believing all this stuff that people are saying oh my god i don't know why people are not believing it it's all possible and plausible at that it's true uh do you have the fat joe jaded kiss podcast clip with moni love i want you guys to watch this and we're going to discuss see bro, O'R Rosenberg, make sure you subscribe. Hit the like button so the algorithm gets popping for us. That's how we move around out here.

Yeah, Hot 97 is the grandfather of this shit, and they want it. And we got to be a little bit loyal to them because they did put us in the game. They played Flojo first. So we got to be like that. But they were also telling me, Power 105 is owned by a company that owns 40 other radio stations. So if you try to front on Power 105, they will not play. your shi in America. So now what do you want? You want to keep it real way hot 97? Meanwhile you got, call it what it is. You got dictators like Ebro on fucking high 97 like,

like, you don't come here, we run the show. He, you've seen that interview when the man so cold that black was the hottest guy in the world. You're going to get out of you if you want. What they didn't realize is that that station came with 40 other stations. So it was like, do you want to be the hottest on high 97, which we all know and loved, or you want to get played in 40 other stations? So that clip was sent to me, and they was like, yo, why is your man Fat Joe talking issue about you? I was like, he's not talking issue about me. I was on that type of time.

We was up against a behemoth. And we was always there first for artists. And we was always there. We always are there. when times get tough. And the eye heart to the world ain't putting you in rotation. Flex is always there for you.

So what was our other mode to be? We was just going to fold up, roll up, and act like it was cool for y'all to run down the street and kiss ass to them and not do nothing for us. That's what I was supposed to do. It was a competitive time. I was supposed to just roll up, and I enjoyed it. I like the competition.

I mean, the word dictator is what made it a little. I know. The word dictator is tough. I mean, hey, listen, I was, I definitely was on my BS for 1,000 percent. Had to be. Had to protect my team. I had to ride for my team. You guys thought we were just going to glad hand, be happy to be here while y'all just run around up with these corporate behemists.

A lot of people don't even know how 97 is really an independent small flagship. They don't have, it's one station. There's no partners all across the globe Two. But the other BLS doesn't play the same music. So it's not like you can leverage one station against the other in that way. Right, right, right, right. So we had to.

You know, look, same way people hate Flex. When Flex is like, yeah, if you don't get me the record first, I'm not playing it. What else we got to go with? We got to use what leverage we got. It's competitive, man. But this is my problem. I love Fat Joe. But this is the problem with the storytelling on podcast.

Even like the timeline, he went from talking about one era to jump in all the way to Ebro and Kodak Black. I'm like, this is okay, but that wasn't indicating of anything else. It's called click farming, sir. He's doing a damn good job. And he said he told Kodak, like if you don't like to get out of here. I'm like, we don't really think it went that way. It didn't go like that. It didn't really go that way.

But I'm not going to sit around and watch Kodak Black curse it. Laura Stavs. Oh. That ain't happening. Or dictate the interview. Speaking of dictator, I'm not doing that. I'm not sitting here,

sitting back and letting you dictate to me. People love, like going back to that interview and just making up their own version of it. Instead of actually watching what happened. They loved just to make it up. I've heard all the crazy stuff. Like, that didn't happen.

You watch the interview. And they've also made it seem like, like Ebro did something bad. Right. Ebro literally was calling attention. The man had an open sexual assault case. And all we did, since it was made clear,

we couldn't go into detail, just going to be clear. By the way, it was made clear by who nobody made clear to me nothing. With someone who committed sexual assault potentially. Now, what we've learned since is a lot of y'all are really good, glad handing with people who have sexual assault cases.

That's what I've learned. but just because it had to be brought up and also couldn't you stop acting people like we missed out on some great interview did you watch the rest of it ERO did us all a favor Wait wait wait wait It wasn't great

I'm sorry Nobody told me not to bring anything up Nobody told me not to bring anything up with Kodak That's part one Part two I didn't bring it up because it was an open case So I just figured he couldn't talk about it Like he wasn't going to talk about

But you said it And I said, I know you can't talk about it, and we take sexual assault serious. I was actually trying to give him out of you. I thought he was smart enough to see, like, yo, we take sexual assault serious, and I know you do too. Hello. Right? Like, this isn't something you want. And when it gets resolved, you could come back.

That's it. Bro got attitude. Start cursing that Laura Stiles. I beat it. Get the fr-r-git. Get out. I think we were trying to change this stuff. He was just so mad.

So whatever. I think Rosenberg, what was your next question after that? You asked him about quasars or something? No, he had said he didn't believe in the moon landing or something. So I had that on my list and it was getting really awkward. So I'm like, hey, we could just talk about the moon landing.

He was like, what? What's you talking about? I was like, all right, bro. No one understands what you're saying anyway. Let's wrap this up. Anyway. Well, shout to Joe and Jada doing big numbers on their podcast.

I saw Joe at the Super Bowl, actually. And I really like Jade on that new Ryan Witherspoon record, too. Shout to Ryan Wittlespoon on here. Yes, yes, yes. Moving around. Now, I think since we're in the hip-hop space, do we care about Kanye and Travis Scott working on a collab album? Wow.

I could see it happen because at first people were like, I don't believe it. I could see it as his way back in. What happened to the other album we were just supposed to begin? I don't know. wasn't didn't they just announce an album now we skipped over that we're to a collab album i see now he's bullied you go away then he's having a concert in mexico then planning another one somewhere else i don't i don't congratulate he's you play he's he's doing something there's some sort of planning to get back to touring in the u.s he's clearly trying to rebuild and and get there like

there's a there's a reason why the apology happened it's all lining up i will just see where a I would be interested in hearing that album, though. I'm not going to lie to you. I would be interested in hearing. Jay Cole announced a world tour. We're looking at 54 dates across 15 countries. Laura, um, Jay Cole was just moving around New York City as well. Yes, I was going to cover it in the rundown, but let's get into it right now.

So, oh, you go hold it? You want to hold it? Yeah, yeah, let's hold it. It's coming up. It's coming up. Ain't know. Yeah, I know you guys don't care about this, but maybe Rosenberg. Roseberg, you know what I saw this weekend?

I saw the documentary for America's Next Top Model. I saw two episodes. Oh my God. I was it. I, April doesn't care about this, but I, it's good. Because it does not paint Tyra Banks in the most positive light. And it really shows you how foul the show was.

But isn't modeling being a model like that whole industry foul anyway? Is the show supposed to be less foul? Yes, Ibrahim. But, you know, it's not. in the early 2000s, and they just had these girls do things that you're just like, oh my God, why is this the thing?

Like there was this one where they eat, all the girls had to change their race. I'm like, oh, this is something that makes sense. Race and ethnicity, right? And the photos are like, oh. Then there's like other versions where they made these girls like, dude, one of the girls, her mom was like a victim of domestic violence

and was like shot and was paralyzed. that was her story. And then they made her do a photo shoot where she's like, oh, highlighting gun violence where she's just like on the floor splattered with like a bullet hole in her chest. Oh my God. It was just stuff frozen in the year like,

why is it happening? And they did it under the premise of we know this is a trigger for you so we're going to make you do this thing or it was just that inconsiderate? That inconsiderate. Got it. Because she was saying it like,

they knew this. I told my story and they still had me do things like that. I mean, people had to get it. I wonder if there, I wonder if there was a, producer trying to trigger these girls to get some sort of outrage or outburst. It's reality TV. Yeah, to try to, you know, look, if y'all think people was rage baiting nowadays, imagine

what the reality show situation was like. It's bad. So I don't know. I'm on like, I'm like on episode two. I almost finished it, but it's good, Rosenberg. It was good. I thought you were going to say, speaking of hip-hop and go to the LaRussell conversation. I thought about doing that.

I thought about doing that, but I was going to bounce around a little bit. hold that but let's get to the La Russell combo do we have a La Russell on a podcast talking about little Wayne I think is where we should start I had a moment in my journey where I had grew a disdain for Wayne just because I start listening to everything like I start maturing as a human and I'm like damn this nigga wasn't talking about nothing for a long time I think that's I think that's why you know like as a as someone who like grow up in these communities and grew up with with homies who I seen want to be bloods because they follow him and want to be gangster.

I want to shoot all the gun bars. Right. Like I've seen the negative that he contributed to the community. And I had to look like, man, what are the songs where he really talked about something and gave? And out of a thousand song catalog, you know, it's minute on this end. It's like Georgia Bush. And I do, and I do bother me, tie my hands.

That's what I was going to say. Time my hands. the only one I think of it. And that's the thing. It's like, if I hug you once, but I slap the shit out of you a thousand times, you know, your affinity for me is going, you're probably going to remember me for this. Now, a lot of people have problems with that, what LaRussell said there. And I get it because people are fans of Little Wayne.

And Little Wayne is one of the goats, one of the icons. But I also don't think it's that problematic. I've watched that like three times now. And I'm like, what are people actually so upset about? It's his personal opinion. Because Ibro, anytime someone has something to say other than the, the, whatever the norm is, quote unquote norm, everyone takes it as, hey, you already know this. They're like, and they'll clip it because they'll be like, ooh, someone hating on Wayne, this will go viral. Yeah.

But the funny thing is I, we're going to get to the other piece of it as well. But like, the shortened version I saw of it was actually not as bad as the longer version. The longer version, he really goes into detail. When I say bad, I don't actually mean bad. I mean bad if you're a Wayne Stam and can't hear the truth that while Wayne is one of the great rappers of all time, he rarely stood for anything. That is a fact. That is an undeniable fact. You can rewrite history all you want.

He was awesome. Not everyone is Chuck to your KRS one. Then there's this. Off the mic, he really stood for nothing. Yeah. In an interview about Black Lives Matter or Mike Brown, I mean, if you want to get let down by one of your legends, just ask little Wayne a question about something important in society. Like, it'll be like, come on, bro.

Didn't he say he said he never experienced racism? Bro, I saw, I just looked yesterday. I was like, he was asked about Black Lives Matter, and he was basically like, my life matters. as long as my bitches say my life matter. Excuse me. Yeah. No, it was, bro, that was in the throes. That was in the throes of protest and the height of Black Lives Matter.

He completely punted on it altogether. If Wayne cared half as much about Black Lives and about issues that matter as he did about not playing the Super Bowl, he'd be really brave. But he's never spoke about anything unrelated to himself. Well, and I wonder what people are saying in the chat, because I was watching, Rassan and shout to Joe who's in the building right now. I was looking at their physical response to what I just said about asking him a question in an interview and how he's responded.

And they literally put their hands over their faces. And I'm not sure if that's because I wasn't supposed to point that out or they're embarrassed for low, like, I'm not sure if people don't want to tell the truth about Little Wayne. I love Little Wayne, man. He's a great artist. He's made great music. I had zero expectation that he was going to get out on records and, like, take a political stand. Like, that wasn't something I looked at Little Wayne for.

He's great. But I also hear what LaRussell is saying. I hear what he's saying. And if you watch the clip, he's saying, I love Little Wayne. But as I matured, I realized that he wasn't really talking about nothing. I saw the damage that was done to people who were standing him and trying to be like him. You know what I'm saying? And he even gave Lil Wayne credit.

for saying some things on some songs because there are songs in Little Wayne's catalog that are about mental health, about his drug addiction, about what happened to him as a child, about what's gone on in New Orleans, about the, about the Hurricane Katrina. Like, he's definitely spoke on things in songs. It's just his stuff that is about nothing or debauchery outweighs that piece of his catalog. And I think that people want to grade them on a curve because they're fans. Agreed. And for La Russell, I think what La Russell is saying now that he's an artist, he wants to be different.

I think that's really where this comes from. It's him saying, wow, somebody I looked up to, the reason I rap and I looked up to this person, I realized this person wasn't saying a lot. Yeah. And I want to say something. And I want to handle this moment the right way. Right, right, right. Now, LaRussle jumped back on the internet.

We got his second piece. And the industry is two forms of marketing that's used heavily. It's seeding and it's clipping. These two things have been monumental and beneficial to artists like myself as well because whenever I have a viral moment, I'm able to mass distribute the moment to the world. On the flip side of that, most of these plays. don't have no integrity. Yesterday, probably like 20-30 platforms across

Instagram and Twitter all posted the same clip of me at the same time with the same narrative and the title says, LeRussell says this about Lil Wayne after signing to Jay-Z. What the fuck that guy's doing anything? That's somebody with a budget in content and the narrative saying, hey, go run this. I love Wayne, I love Wayne, Now, I wouldn't be the rap I am today without. He inspired me to do so much. He inspired me to have bars. But he also inspired me to smoke weeds, cintling,

shoot guns, all those things. And I turned out great. Now, it's very interesting to jump back on. And, you know, I'm a proponent, an advocate for this type of talk, especially when it comes to marketing budgets and narratives on the internet, because I've been bought it for years. I've been boughted from the Takashi 6-9s. I've been boughted by the Barbes.

I've been bought it by OVO. I've been, you know, the academics machine loves to get, get, they start the engine on me. And all of these blogs simultaneously, like he's saying, run with something where you'll be like, yo, all of y'all posted that's the same time. Which I, you know, for me, I like the marketing. But I think La Russell kicked the hornets nest.

He got the trifecta. Because you talked about Lil Wayne. So you're going to get the OVOs on you. You're going to get the Barbes on you. You sign the Jay-Z, Rock Nation. Oh, the Hove hate? Oh, man. The buggy man.

That's the trifecta. So you got the hove haters. You got the Barbes and the OVOs. They're coming for you. The owls, the barbs. I will say he did say something that was very interesting that I saw moving around, on how certain outlets all kind of, moving concert.

Right. And I was really trying to look for this last night because there was, I don't know if it was Isaac Hayes the third or I don't remember who was it, who made a video where he basically was showing everyone who owns what. And I think that's very important because a lot of people really think

that a lot of these outlets, well, some people think they're black owned. That's right. Which is not true. Some people think that they're actually ran by like real journalist. Not true. Or maybe at one point they were, but then they got sold.

That's another thing that's happening. But it's really important to see how a lot of these outlets, like who owns them, who's pushing the narrative? Because I'm not the only one. We've seen a lot of these outlets like rap. There's one is at rap. And then you see them start pushing like right wing content. And you're like, hmm, where is this coming from? And that's happening with a lot of outlets.

That's something to pay attention to. Well, listen, I agree with all of this. I'm interested in all of it. I do think that his, La Russell's response was a little bit, I don't want to say he was disingenuous, but it's also he spoke about, La Russell's been gaining popularity, and he spoke an interesting point about one of the most popular

and talked about an interesting artist that there is. And it was a very compelling point, and we live in a time when he's right, everyone does everything for clicks. I don't know if there was some organized, plan to create backlash against L Russell, much as we just know how these places operate, and he gave them very easy clickbait. And he's right.

These places have no morals. If they see an opportunity, they are cutting the clip and they are running with it. Well, I think what he did. He didn't walk it back a tad. Right. But what he pointed out wasn't the blowback. It was the headline. Mm-hmm.

It was they were saying because basically he signed to Rock Nation. Now he's got something negative to say about Little Wayne. Oh, yeah, that part's nonsense. That part straight nonsense. But I think that when you look at it through that lens of like, wait a minute, I was just talking about Little Wayne. The larger narrative is, oh, I got a hate on Little Wayne now that I'm signed to Rock Nation because Jay Z doesn't like Lil Wayne because Jay Z didn't let him play at the Super Bowl.

That's what he's pointing out. I agree with that part. That is someone trying to. to shape a narrative. If it would have just been like La Russell gets backlash because of his comments on Little Wayne or La Russell thinks

it's Little Wayne's fault that he started drinking lean. Whatever the headline would have been, that's clean. That's what he said. No, no, no. They said La Russell signed a Rock Nation. And now he's hating on Little Wayne. Yeah, I guess I guess I sort of ignored that part because it was so absurd

but you're absolutely right. I'm sure that is the worst part of it. And let's be honest. It continued all weekend because people seem to take it face value. DJ Vlad going full-blown tin hat ridiculous conspiracy theory. It's a busy weekend. About Rock Nation. Oh, man. I think some people fell far too.

No, no, no, no, wait. The truth is coming out. Hang on one second. Rosenberg, fix your mic. Your setting changed on your mic, so your mic ain't right. Fix that. And then absolutely people, people jumped in on. believe in Vlad. No, they were like, finally somebody has the heart to come out and say it.

People were celebrating like the truth is finally here. Because people want that to be the truth. Oh my God. Do we have Vlad's tweet, Rassan? We don't have that. We don't have that set aside. Let me see. We got to Google that.

But yeah, it was crazy. The amount of people who were really like, oh, my God, the truth is here. Yo, listen. Make sure you subscribe right here. Make sure you Subscribe to the Ebro Laura Rosenberg show Right here on YouTube You got it, Laura Stousel.

Okay, two days ago, D.J. Blad said, I have a confession. Rock Nation has been paying me to support Megan. They also paid off all of the jury members to convictory. And they bribed the judge too. Jay-Z did a verse for his grandson's new album. They paid off Megan's doctor to lie about the bullet fragments.

She was never shot. The L.A. police are all on Jay's payroll. It doesn't stop with L.A., but you're not ready to hear that part. The Mexican guy who stabbed Tory, who do you think paid him to do that? You already know the answer to that. The three Supreme Court judges who denied Tory's appeal, all paid off by the Rock Mafia. Jay also paid Trump not to pardon Tory. Even if it's a state case, Trump can only pardon federal cases, but knowing Trump likes to bend the rules, Jay wasn't taking any chances. I can't keep these lies a secret anymore.

If this is my last tweet, you know who's silenced to me. Hilarious. Bro. Now, your man, Vlad went ham. Just for him to jump up and say it was satire and jumped on with academics. I can't. Now, which one do y'all want to believe, chat?

Y'all want to believe that that's what Vlad really, really feels? Or do y'all want to believe it was satire? y'all want to believe there's truth in vlad's tweet because that's where it's at now on the internet people are like of course hove put the pressure on him to change his tune yes there was a bianci posted a picture of her at the super bowl right sitting down with like a burger in the and the bordeurican flag everyone's like oh my god celebrating i saw it and then you see the comments

then you're like oh but she's in the epstein files no her husband's in the epstein bro no no and it's like you know people don't read. They do not. They go with whatever rumor they hear. Yep, yep. They said Lill, they said J.Z paid off Donald

Trump to help Megan the Stahlia. Right. Are you really believing? You really think there's a world in which the man was paying off Donald Trump? I don't even understand what they're suggesting this is about. Why would Meg the Stallion

be worth JZ risking absolutely everything. Can you explain this? Even before you go that far, Rosenberg, the Morgan, the Tory Lane's case wasn't a Megan the Stallion trial. It was an L.A. County trial against Tory Lane's,

who's not a citizen of the United States, and who had a gun. Yes. That had been recently fired that he didn't have a license for. Megan had to testify. Well, and then there's the part of it where Tori didn't decide to testify,

whatever legal advice he had gotten. And now everybody's coming out saying, what was the, Megan's friend, what was her name? Kelsey. Kelsey's the one that actually did it. Well, if that's the case and you wanted to stay out of jail. And now the bodyguard, now the bodyguard's talking. After he heard a conversation, get out of here.

Get out of here. I just love the hilarity. We're supposed to think it's interesting that DJ Vlad, who is a snitch. The man literally does interviews where he sits and gets people to tell on themselves. That's his entire career. He's generally not even a camera.

Well, that's not fair. He's a DJ too. He played, I mean, at some point he played music. I don't know when. No, no, back in the day, he was a real mixtape DJ. There you go. The version that people know, the version that people know is this guy

and he's like, hold on everybody. I'm going to blow the whistle. You don't say, you're a professional snitch. That's not new. And then you're going to make it up. It's a complete fabrication that is insane. I'm not saying Jay-Z is perfect or infallible or the rock is perfect or infallible. I don't, I'm not rock nation or I'm not slickly low-key rock nation.

I am not. But to make up this thing that they're the most evil empire, Jay-Z's paying off judges and the president. Are y'all, y'all been reading the Epstein. Y'all been too deep in the Epstein file algorithm, DJ Vlad. chill out. Well, no, but he said it was satire. He said his tweet was satire. He jumped on with academics and said it wasn't,

he was joking, basically. And people still be like, no, no, no. And people still be like, no, and then people switched up again. It was like, oh, Jay-Z put pressure on you. They got to him. They got to you. No. No, he admitted that he was, he was click farming,

and it was, and he was just out here rage baiting. He admitted it was satire. He was playing around. Academics didn't want to believe him. The internet was then frying it for that. But you can't do satire when your entire career is satire. Well, that's a problem. You are satire, DJ, glad.

Congratulations, you plagued yourself. You can't now pretend like you're just being a goof when you're giving out this ridiculous information. This is what your entire platform is. But that's why it seemed like you be telling the truth. We're taking this entirely too serious, if you be honest. Because if everything you're saying you believe about DJ Vlad Rosenberg, we're sitting here talking about it. He's still in the algorithm.

He's still going to be talked about. People are still going to click on his things, and he's still going to get paid, which is his end game. So while everybody's mad about somebody posting this thing and saying this thing or whatever, if you're still doing the behavior that gets them paid, they won.

And you get this. Congratulations. You played yourself. You know what I'm saying? Nicky Minaj put up. some tweet too, didn't she this weekend? I tried to ignore you. Oh, yeah. Her president.

Where she was saying that all these people stabbed her in the back and listed Drake, Lil Wayne. Oh, that one. Epstein was on it. Barack Obama, all these people did her wrong. They're on her list. Was that a real thing or was that AI? I don't know.

And again, or are you trying to be, is it parody? But you don't realize, Nikki, you have become parity. Your entire brand is parody because the next day you're putting up a happy President's Day meme with you and a fake picture of Donald Trump. You can't make jokes when you are a joke. Let's check out the picture. There you go. Now, the best part was when people zoomed in on the glass behind Donald Trump. And they was like, yo, Donald Trump is a black man and his reflection.

His reflection was a black man. I thought we were going to talk about how she was tweeting at her barbs to vote for the SAVE Act. Well, do people know what the SAVE Act is, Laura Stavs? Where they're trying to push this act where it's like there, it's mandatory identification when you register when you go to vote. Yeah. But it's a little bit more complicated than that. So if you're a married woman who changed your name and your birth certificate doesn't match your current name, it'll cause problems for you. because everything has to align.

Not everybody has a passport. That's another thing. Half of 50% of Americans don't have a passport. So that's another issue. So it's a form of voter suppression that people have been talking about forever, but they're trying to simplify it. Like Nikki was pushing the narrative that illegal immigrants are voting. You guys, illegal immigrants can't vote, man.

You already have to be a citizen to vote. and the instances of non-citizens voting is like super duper rare so rare so it's just all bro it's such a mess sometimes I'm like look at where we're at as a society well I mean they're put this save act thing is making a lot of noise because people think that illegal immigrants are out here voting yeah and time and time again if you tell them you can't vote if you're an illegal they people just seemingly don't believe it and if And if you have to go as far as getting a passport to be able to vote, you know how long it's going to take you to get a passport or an original birth certificate? Original birth certificate?

Like, people don't know where their original birth certificate is. Bro, I'm dealing with it. I'm dealing with my original birth certificate right now because I'm trying to get my EU citizenship so I can get out of this place at some point. Yo, getting your, it's a thing. Getting the original law and form birth certificate is a thing. And this is what they want to eventually do. They want to make it just impossible for, in their eyes, Democrats to vote.

That's the plan. But I'm going to bring this up again, especially for married women who take their husband's last name. It's going to be very hard. You know, when you dig deep in Project 2025 or whatever the new one is, they don't want women voting, bro. They do not want women to vote. In their dream world, one vote per household. And who is the head of the household?

Usually the man. That's what they want. So I just think that people should really, really also just that should make you be like, wait, this isn't, this isn't right. This isn't right because it's going to be very difficult for married women to cast their votes. And that's what they want. Well, and they definitely want less and less black and brown people voting. Yep. And there are some elections that are supposed to that are really important happening in March in Texas, right?

And they want to fast track this Save Act through in February and they've made written the bill. So as soon as it signed, oh, you have the clip of the woman talking about it in the session the other day. This is, who is this woman, the SAVAC committee hearing? Does your driver's license tell us where you were born? It does not. You cannot use this ID to register to vote under your bill. Is that correct? Chairman Stiles, do you have a passport.

I personally do have a passport. I'm a part of the roughly 50% of Americans. You're roughly 50% of Americans. You're roughly 50% of Americans have a passport. About 50% of Americans don't travel internationally. They don't have that money. 21.3 million American citizens of voting age don't have ready access to citizenship documents.

You have changed the enactment date of this bill to go and back as soon as it is signed into law. And if that happens, by rushing this into law, you are going to prevent. So many people from being able to register to vote. That's the point. And that's unacceptable. When you say how many immigrants or too many voting, I would ask, I'd flip the question

and ask you, how many eligible citizens are you worried about being turned away because you are rushing something like this into law? Do you care? No, they don't. The answer is no. No, of course not. They don't care. It's intentional.

That's why. That's the plan. Can we hear from my spirit animal? Pearl Mania, I think, 5,000 on Instagram. You know, the redhead dude that screams at the camera? Oh, you love this guy. No, it's my guy right here. I want to force everybody use a passport inside their own country because that way the only valid passports will end up being owned by Republicans.

The end game here is to make sure that when you go to go vote, that you have to go hand them a passport, and they'll take that passport and they'll scan it. And then suddenly it's going to come up that your passport was stolen. Your passport's invalid. We have questions about your passport. And then I'll look at that. Suddenly on election day because we're only,

going to allow people to vote in person at election day at those exact polling places for voter safety bullshit suddenly suddenly suddenly suddenly all these people are going to get turned away from the polls suddenly suddenly all these people aren't going to be able to go vote and their voices heard and actually be able to choose a legitimate government because all these people are going to be declared individually themselves as illegitimate what's the precedent for this oh i don't know the story of black people in the south from 1865 to 1965 how do you not know that everything they're trying to do is an exact thing that they did to black people for 100 years in front of every everybody's goddamn eyes.

To the point we had to send the military down there to actually make sure that some votes got counted. And that shit still getting cooked. That shit still getting rock. But the same exact Supreme Court that's been installed by the same exact illegitimate government. Over and over and over again, we've got to sit through this bull. Time and time again to learn the same exact lessons that y'all wouldn't have to relive if you would just read one fucking book. One book. Maybe two.

Might be three, but at least one. What are you saying based on facts? Super facts. Super facts. And the part that we're going through right now is a nation that everybody's having this awakening. Everybody's like, what's happening? This isn't the America that I know it is. It is the America that you believed in. It is the America that you thought was so great. It is. It always has been. And black people try to tell you. Black, Black people been telling y'all, y'all didn't want to listen. You didn't want to listen when we talked about the corruption going on

and black kids coming up missing and Oregon farming. You guys, nobody wanted to listen to that because you know the communities they pick on first when they're abducting children and organ farming is the poor ones, the ones that have the narrative built against them, that they're the problem. Because nobody's going to listen to poor black and brown people. And poor white people for that, man.

Ibrough, I can't help but think about as sad as the Savannah Guthrie's mom story is. It's you realized the amount of black and brown children that disappear and don't even get a mention in the news. Yes. And a famous person's old mother and it's still very sad has gone missing. And it's dominating every newspaper, every new cycle, everything. Black and brown children disappear, not even a story. No, as soon as, I think a couple years ago, I remember there was like a, they found a body somewhere of like a woman. But if it's a black woman, though, possible sex worker, they just dismiss.

Absolutely. No, but by the way, but by the way, if you are black or brown in this America, this is generational. This isn't just right now. These stories have been moving around, but they were conspiracy theories. Oh, you're wearing your tin hat. Oh, that could never happen in the U.S. We're never going back. Congratulations.

You plagued yourself. Feels like we headed it right in that direction. Matter of fact, they're writing country songs about waking up. Let me hear. Where's my country song? You heard this song? It hung by the door on a rusty old nail. A symbol of pride in a song.

small town tail I wore it through fields through rallies and rain but now it just carries a shadow of shame so I'm burning my red head watching it glow I was happy listening and then heard

I'm burning my red hive you're just right now right now you're like waiting one the reason I play it right now is because you know how y'all got here? Why you're claiming this shame and you got to burn a red hat? Because you don't listen to black people. That's how you got here, bro. Because you're not listening to the most disenfranchised abused group other than Native Americans that has been vocal about this BS for generations, man. You're not listening. And you have to ask yourself, why aren't you listening?

That's racist. It could have listened to so many. people about Trump. It's beyond that. It's more than they just weren't listening. It's they liked the things it was saying about black people. There you go. Why they picked up the red hat in the first place. That's racist. Now listen, I'm all, I'm all for you burning it. I'm all for you having the moment of reckoning. That's great. But it's also that button right over there. Congratulations. You plagued yourself. I know, uh, I know we're running low on time. I don't want to forget. We got mad people in the super chat. Super chat. Let's go. Chef. Chef Daniel Brown always coming through,

wants to show love RIP, Jesse Jackson, a man among men. Vicky came through and said, watching from bit today, I'm a teacher off of work this week, been a fought for years, loving the new stew and the new plans. Love for you.

Yo, question, chat. Should we bring back some of our classic games? Sack or box was a good game. That's not a classic. That's not a good. It's not a good one. No, no. Rosenberg's sack or Laura's box.

We're going to have prizes, though. I'm working on prizes. I'm working on Cardi B tickets. You know what I'm saying? We're working on a, yo, we're working on a, what did we call it,

the family summer fest? You know what I'm saying? We might have an event pop in this summer. People have been asking for in-person event, so we're working on it. Man. All right.

Well, can we get into a rundown, please? It's run-down time? Yes, let's go. Hang on, let me find it. It's beyond run-bath. Turn that up Screen's on glow When she pulled up

Headlines heavy But we still cut up Life still flashing we don't slow up All right Jake Cole announced the fall off world Tour 50 cities 15 countries

So it kicks off July 11th in Charlotte And then it's scheduled to wrap up December 12 in Johannesburg So and he's coming to the Garden Madison Square Garden on August 4th So tickets are available for the general public.

They go on sale Friday, February 20th. So, you know, Jay Cole made a lot of surprise appearances over the weekend in Queens. You know, he's doing his trunk sale tour, 26, where he's driving his car, selling, you know, albums from the trunk of his car, letting people hop in and listen to them. So he hit up a deli in Queens, the 179 deli,

and he also hit up St. John's University. But he also stopped by, which I thought was super special. So I haven't really talked about this on the show, a friend of mine by the name of Chenay Curry, who was, my connection to her is through Envision. And the Envision Foundation and Envision Fest, somebody I loved. So I was leaving a lot of the times,

I was leaving a show to go to the hospital because she was battling cancer, breast cancer. And sadly, Sheney lost her life. Rest and peace, Sheney. I saw a lot of people talking about Sheney life. Oh, my God. She was a beautiful soul, a beautiful soul. So I was having a hard time last week.

you know, just dealing with that, you know, having to say goodbye to somebody. But I'm just super thankful that I was able to see her while she was still with us. But yeah, J. Cole stopped by her celebration of life, which I thought was super special. You told me Mom Donnie gave her a call, too. Yes, because when she, you know, when he was campaigning, she was going hard for him. So there was these beautiful pictures. And I guess I was trying to figure out like, how can we get him to, like, know what's happening? because there's a beautiful picture, a video that went viral of him, you know, thanking Sheney for all her work.

And it was super cool to see. And, yeah, towards the end, he ended up giving her a call and thanked her. And she was awake and she received the message. So I was very happy about that. But yeah, that was super special. When I saw that, guys, you know, I choked up. You know what I mean? It's been difficult for me and for a lot of people who loved her.

And the message is still here. You know, I've talked about it for years on the show. early detection will save your life. And then unfortunately, hers was just like, this was her second time getting cancer. Damn. So the second time took her, but. And I know it's very hard for you, Laura,

because you've had a lot of people close to you fight that battle. So it's triggering in many ways. Yeah, I lost one of my best friends two years ago to cancer. It's horrible. So sometimes I'm just tired of losing amazing people to this horrible disease, you know.

But and more positive, I'm trying not to cry. Don't worry about it. Work through it. Work through it. Take your time. Don't feel like you got to pivot. You know what I mean?

It's a very tough thing. And the other part of it is it's, um, there's people, I'm sure, tuned in right now, who also are often triggered, right? Whether it's a commercial that plays or, you know, a fundraiser they see or, you know, I saw some people talking about these, these new cures. Yeah. And even new cures trigger. people because it's like, why didn't you have that with my loved one need?

Right, right, right. And sometimes it's money. Yeah. They're so expensive at not being able to have the money that could possibly save your loved one is heartbreaking. Yeah. You know, but it just made me so happy because I know if she was still here, she would have been, like, beyond, you know what I mean? To be able to have Jake Cole stopped by her party.

Because originally the party was scheduled to be a fundraiser to help her family. Because guys, like, not only do you have to deal with the pain of losing your loved one, but the bills that are attached to it. You know what I mean? So her whole GoFundMe is still up. And if you can't support Shenei Curry. She was an incredible human being. And we're just so lucky.

I'm so lucky to be able to work with her. And there is a video that we put out with these two other beautiful young ladies that, you know, experience cancer at a very young age. Because remember, cancer doesn't discriminate. That's right. It doesn't discriminate. But yes. So, yeah, I was very happy to see J. Cole come and show love.

Well, and can we just give a moment to the, Jay Cole for just being amazing. I mean, I love seeing him pull up in the beat-up Honda and, you know, and just fans happy to see him. And you know, it's interesting, I found myself thinking about the whole little Wayne LaRustle

thing. And we have so many great hip-hop icons right now that actually are saying something and standing for something and own their narrative, own their business. own the content they're creating. Like it's a great, as much as we can critique

where a lot of BS happens in hip hop on social media, there's a lot of beauty taking place in hip hop, and I don't think gets a lot of coverage. But you know what I mean? It's, it's, um, Jay Cole's a special dude, man. I'm glad this album. I got the vinyl last night.

And I was, I was showing, I put it on my stories. When I got the vinyl, Salasi has a little trolls desk. when she was sitting there doodling on her little, I don't know, like this little doodle pad where they can draw and then erase it. I don't know what's more. Not quite.

It's kind of, we call it etchice sketch, but it ain't really a sketch. It's something different. But anyway, and on the cover of the Jay Cole album, you know, is his old desk where he was making his first beats. Yeah. So I was like, yo, look, Jay Cole had a little desk just like you.

Nah, but it's cool, man. And, you know, it's just cool to have kids like, Issa loves the Jay Co. I love that. And I don't have a problem with her listening to that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, that makes me happy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You know, so it's dope, man. And salute to J-Cole and salute to your friend and rest of peace to you, to Chenet. And anybody out there that's dealing with a family member and a love one going through a health crisis and dealing with cancer, you know, we extend love to you, wherever you are. Absolutely. In other petty news, Cardi B. Is it lowdown time? Well, we could take it there. I mean,

for the low die, Laura style. Well, Cardi B, you know, she's on tour right now. Yeah. I just saw this video of Kaylani backstage with Cardi, and she's telling Cardi, it's just so much ass. It was really funny.

It was really funny. But Cardi B, you know, when she's on stage, she's going through all her songs. And of course, she's performing pretty and petty, which where she takes shots at Bia. So Bia, you know, decided to tweet something. She wrote,

can you name someone with more BMs than receiving yards? Oh, man. I can. And I know what? Never mind, never mind. Oh, man. So this is Cardi after it came out. Look, there's a tweet.

See, now, Behan, you didn't have to do this, which means you wanted to smoke. I hope you got a song about to drop this week today tomorrow. Something. Let's make this a moment then. So this is Cardi at her show. basically, I guess, responding to her. I think they're working together.

That was too. Bia gave Cardi Bia a layup right there. You think so? Absolutely. That's tour promo for Cardi B. Music promo for Bia. They're in cahoots. Oh, my God.

They're in cahoots. I'm like, Bea, just give us some more songs. Give us some more records. All right. So this one, Ebro, listen. I'm putting my, I'm putting my tin hat on with you because I saw this moving around. And I've heard Luke talk about this before, right? But this particular video, I want to pull it up.

It's from an interview on Series XM. I think it was 2016. Now watch this. It was like, hey, man, I got a pageant down here. I'm hosting these women at the house. Okay, up in Palm Beach, they share some cars to pick us up. We get in the cars. We drive up there.

Me, Mike, Eddie Murphy, we all. in our own individual cars, car service drove us up there. We got there, he showed us around the house. And before you know it, the rooms and everything start popping. It wasn't no DJ. Hey, get in where you fit in there. Whatever room you're going to go in, you go into that room. When I started looking at some of the girls' faces,

I was like, man, these girls don't look like they're old or no. Was there sex? Was there? I guess that's a stupid question now to ask it. I wasn't clear whether or not there were adults. And I want to clear whether or not, you know, whether I wanted to be in that kind of environment where some of these other things that were going on in. Bro. So if you don't, it didn't understand what Luke was saying.

He said, when I started looking at some of these girls' faces, I was like, man, these girls don't look like they're old enough. I can't be up in here. I got to go. If I'm going to jail, then somebody's going to extort me or something for being here. So you got a bunch of these women running around. Some women look too young. I mean, listen, and that was 10 years ago. He's talking about Mar-a-Lago.

Yeah. Invited to a party at Mar-a-Lago. That's right. Going room to room. Listen, I think right now what you're watching is you have individuals that are relentless with talking about Trump and these Epstein files or the Epstein files in general, which I applaud you. But I think there's a lot of other people who don't know what to do next and are waiting for someone to, at the federal level or some sort of law enforcement agency to take this to the next phase,

whatever that's going to be. So it feels like from now until that happens, and there are people who are going to, this is their life's mission. And I love you for it, making sure that everyone mentioned in these files that had something to do with the rape, traffic, murder of people in these files. is held accountable. Yes. This is some dark stuff.

And I need to reiterate it. Donald Trump is in the files over a million times. There are people mentioned in the files and you're like, okay, they're mentioned they were at a party. Maybe they were in a photo. Not good. Not what you want. Also a congratulations. You plagued yourself.

But then there's people who have thousands, hundreds of thousands of correspondence. between themselves and Epstein where they plan to go to events, begging to go to his events, talking about what happened at the events. That's more than just, oh, somebody called a tip line and hearsay. That is you corresponding with someone else via email about this world, about this sex trafficking ring, about this criminal enterprise. and then there's the political,

socio-political ramifications of Epstein and Bannon talking about what they were doing to divide and use and spend money to create narratives that divided the public or helped out with Brexit. All of that is in the Epstein Fowles.

His connection to the Mossad, his connection to Israel. It's all power. It's all power. His connection, do we have the photo of the guy that was the CEO of Dubai that had to step down, who was mentioned in the file some...

What's this guy's name? I saw this. Dubai CEO resigns. thanking him for a torture video. That's different than being mentioned in the Epstein files. That's another level. There's levels to these files. What are you having your hand, Laura Stow?

Oh, sorry. Are you ready for the guru? Yes, yes, yes. All right, we'll get to the guru's in. I'm not done ranting about the Epstein fact. Because it's insane. It's insane. All of it is crazy. But the question is,

Ebro, who's going to jail? That's what everybody's waiting for. There's actually a trigger warning. You know what? I'll air this tomorrow because we're running out of time. Her name is Dr. Leslie Dobson. I started following her. She's a lawyer and a doctor, I believe.

And she has made it her life's mission to bring down and to bring down the people in the files and highlight what's going on in the files. But we'll get into that tomorrow. Thanks for the rundown there and the lowdown. Sure. Hold on to your speakers.

And for the lowdown with Laura Stey. Do we need like lowdown graphics? Like when I hit that music, should something like pop up on the screen or something? Or like when we get into the rundown. Do we need like take this, take this show to another level? Like when we mention something, graphics pop up and it's visual and it's audio. Chat, do you guys want that level of production, like TV production?

Let's get to the gurus. See right there, we could have had, it's time for the gurus. That I do like. I think we need some. You know what I'm saying? You could have had some. All right. What you got?

Let me zen, zend, d'n, breathe out. All right, let's do this. Wait, we lost Rosenberg's feed, huh? I think we did, yeah. Raggedy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. Dear gurus, first I want to say I love, love, love, love, love, love you guys.

Longtime listener and Fott, thank you for always keeping us a part of the plans and never missing a beat. Mornings wouldn't be the same without you. Oh, thanks, thanks. All right, so let me get into it. I'm a single mom of a 15-year-old student athlete. I have to emphasize this because ball is literally life. My schedule's tight.

You guys know how this is. I've been single since my son was three years old. And now that I'm getting older, I can finally say I'm ready to put myself out there again. I'm 35 years old and not really into the online dating thing. How do I start putting myself out there again? How is it that in the 12 years of being single, I've only been able to find taken men or people just looking for a come up? Obviously, I've had my little rendezvous throughout the years, but no one ever worthy of locking it down. Where do you find people looking for genuine connections these days?

P.S. His dad has always been around, so it's not like I'm looking for a father for my son. Just someone to share my life with, which obviously includes my son. But do I need to make time for a hobby? Yes. Did I just not find the right app? And then sidebars. Can we get the Kensa drop back?

I think we got it. Which one? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, well, that's a good one too. Healthy skill kids. And, yeah. She misses Shawnee and Casta one. Oh, they're doing good.

I hear Cass One over there. He's getting some mic time. Yes. Sonny's mic time's been clipped a little bit I hear, but he's got a new show. Yes, yes. That's good. What is it? I don't know.

It's like worldwide something. Oh, he didn't go with a worldwide update? Yeah, it's new music Saturday morning. Saturday mornings, worldwide update, new music with Shani Culture. So they're working. Support them. They're good. They're good.

Go support him. 35. years old and what she said her kid is out? 13. Her kid is 15. 15. Yeah. 15 years old. She doesn't want to do the apps. Don't want to do the apps. Ma'am, I got news for you. Something's got to give.

You have to make time for a hobby. Yes. Well, no. Well, she's already said in the top of her email, she prioritized her kids basketball. But at the end, she says, do I need to make time for a hobby? If you can, but it feels like you're wrapped up with your work life and basketball. And so where is this person that you want to lock down with supposed to fit in? I know. I think you need to get focused and you need to find somebody that really know how to lay that hammer down. That lay them down, smack them, yak them, you know what I'm saying?

Dip out. You know, you got a 15-year-old son. Honey, I'll be back 1, 2 o'clock in the morning and go get you a hotel, have you a nice little dinner once a week. Boom, boom, boom. She's had the rendezvous, she said. I think she's really trying to find, like, a genuine person. Nah, you got to just hold out for like three years to your son's out the house, man. I don't know.

I do think, listen, I have a different point of view. I do think you need to make time for a hobby. I think you need to make time for yourself. If you're not on gaps, that's the only way you're going to meet people. I don't disagree with you, Laura. I'm just saying she ain't going to make time. Something's got to give. Yeah, it's up to you.

This one is up to you because either can you make the time? So when I was 15 and my mom was trying to date, by the way, at 15 years old, I'm six feet tall, 190 pounds. So dudes would call the house and I'd be like, hello? That don't really rock that long. I'm going to keep it 100 with you. Now, now that everybody got their own phones, a woman doesn't have to deal with that, right?

You're calling your phone. Your son ain't answering the phone. Being like, Ma, some dude on the phone. Or not, she's not here. She's here. But when people come over your house and you got your big brawling,

look, your son playing basketball. I'm assuming he got some height on him. You know what I mean? That's another grown man in the house. And I'm sure he got a little attitude with the new dudes that pop up. So that's a challenge. It's a challenge. And it'll hopefully get easier when he goes off to college or whatever. But right now it's tough. And you just got to, you know, stick with the

rendezvous. Maybe something will click. Get a hobby. You know what I mean? Yeah, I'm with you. Just get the hobby. And then maybe you'll just, and then you might just meet some cool people. You know what I mean? Just step in with an open mind. But you said that your schedule is super tight. So hopefully, if you can, start trying to see where you can fit in a hobby in time for yourself. And your son's going to need a scholarship. You know what? Maybe. one of these coaches is looking right to you. You know what I'm saying? Set that join up a little nepotism.

Throw the show. You know what I'm saying? No, no, no. Throw the show for the basketball show. Get you some of them scholarships. No. Find a hobby. Meet new people.

That's it. So say Laura the guru. Get a scholarship. Thank you, man. Thank you for rocking with us. We love y'all. Good time. Hit like, please.

Hit like. Hit like. do all the things that you're supposed to do to make sure the algorithm is popping for us so more people can find us. We got to figure out a marketing plan. The amount of people that walk up and are like, walk up to us and they're like,

yo, where y'all at now? We miss y'all. Then I was telling people, everyone thinks everyone is on social media and a lot of people are. But their algorithm, they don't see it, they're not on there enough. Things come and go very fast.

People have their regular everyday lives. So we're going to have to, maybe we're going to have to pay to, like, take over a subway station or something. You know what I mean? Do one big Times Square billboards when our money get right. Yeah, we got to figure it out. You know what are those posters on the... The wheat paste. Yeah, we need some of those posters on construction sites.

And we need all that, man. So, Ebro-Laure Rosenberg is the show. Subscribe. We appreciate y'all. We'll see y'all tomorrow. Just don't call in a podcast.
