Just don't call in a podcast.
The Ebro-Lora Rosenberg show.
That one.
You know what is?
Either way, it's, you know.
What is?
A button.
Yo, man, Friday vibes.
Made it to the weekend.
You know it's Family Friday.
Fought Friday.
A little freedom on Friday.
We love freedom.
You know what I mean?
You can say what you want to say.
Feel how you want to feel.
You can do it in a voice note.
You can do it in an email.
Where do we want to go first, gang?
We got a lot of emails.
We didn't do any last week.
All right.
Now, Griff's gave, we have how many?
That's a lot.
Does Griff think we're getting to all of these today?
Is that what he thinks when he prints all these out?
I think he wants to give you all the options.
Got it.
All right.
I got news for you.
Anything that goes back to February.
I'm still in February.
Here we go. March.
Anything marching forward?
I'm going to read today.
All right.
All of March today.
Only March.
If you emailed in February, we apologize.
We're not getting to it.
Oh, my God.
All right.
Well, there goes the one about Ebro being a guru from February 28th.
I'll be all right.
I don't need your validation.
I'm not even sure.
I like being in the gurus.
It was more fun being on outside.
Got to be more reckless.
Now I feel some level of responsibility with this guru thing.
So you don't want to kick off with a voice note?
No, we only have a couple of voice notes.
I say we hit a few emails, then a voice notes.
And it's Ebro-Laura Rosenberg at gmail.com.
If you would like to email and get involved in Fott Friday, Freedom Friday, Family Friday.
And we'll get the family matters coming up.
That's right.
Go ahead, Rosenberg.
All right, well, you want to start off with the one that made me hot at the gate when I was sitting here?
Yes.
Sure.
That's where you want to start.
Yonis wrote on March 5th.
Yonis.
All right.
And he said,
uh,
he said,
is Rosenberg really an ally?
All right.
Rosenberg's constant complaints of anti-Semitism are tone deaf and make the show hard to listen to sometimes.
Jewish people as a whole are some of the wealthiest and most powerful people in the world.
And all the cries of victimhood feel like manipulation.
There are people.
the world who really are oppressed and Jews are nowhere near the top of the list. I am literally
a day one fought. I remember Rosenberg's first show in 08 with Seif and I stopped listening to Hot 97
when you left. But my eyes have been opened. Since October 7th, I sometimes question if Rosenberg's
really an ally or just pretending. Yonis, I would firmly, I just want to say to you, I mean this respectfully,
suck my d. Oh my God. And take it all down. And fifth. And fifth.
finish me off good. And you know what? Give me some eye contact while you're at it.
Yo! Why'd you go so hard? That is an insane, because for me, in the three years since October 7th,
to speak about this issue the way I have, where by far in a way the lion's share is talking about
the evil that's been done to the Palestinian people. You don't even understand the risk I take
as a Jewish person doing that on this platform. And because I sometimes mention the fact that there is a
legitimate spike in anti-Semitism, which has happened in many ways and it oftentimes
because of the work of the Israeli government.
Right.
But because I speak about that real thing that affects at least my life, I don't know how many,
you know, offensive racial attacks you get every day on your social media.
I personally get shut up Jew about a hundred times a day.
So me expressing that.
Well, shut up Jew.
Is that really anti-Semitic?
Yes, it is.
Let me clarify for you.
Yes, it is 100%.
So for me to explain, you are now questioning whether or not I can you, am I missing something guys?
No, no, no, no.
I just want you to go off.
This is a crazy take.
This is like crazy, crazy.
How does that make me less of an ally?
Because I mention sometimes that the group I'm a part of also catches it.
By the way, do you not remember my mother was born in a displaced person's camp?
This isn't way far away from me.
My great aunt and great uncle, that's my mom's aunt and uncle, were slaughtered in the Holocaust.
My parents, my grandparents had to run around Europe.
My mom was then born in Germany.
It's not that far away.
Now, are Jews in a powerful position oftentimes in American society, given the small percentage we are of the population?
Absolutely.
Would I compare the black American struggle, let's say, or the Latino American struggle to that,
of Jews in America. No, I wouldn't compare it. I think they're vastly different. But for me to
mention anti-Semitism occasionally, even though I constantly speak about the ills of Israel and you
to question whether I'm an ally or not, as I said earlier, suck my d. So when you speak of danger
that you face because of your opinion, what are you talking about? I didn't say, oh, oh, meaning
it's not in the business that I'm in, which is entertainment, which is one of the areas in which
Jewish people are very powerful and which a lot of people, not all, certainly, but many powerful
people are very, very pro-Israel. To be a Jewish person who is outwardly choosing for no benefit
except saying the truth. To be outspoken against what Israel is doing is a personal risk.
I am doing that to advocate for other people. I am doing that to advocate for the Palestinian people
of course.
Who deserve to have that.
And I believe that's something
that Jewish folks should do.
And I'm something I believe
all people should do.
But that means,
but if I then ever mention the fact,
like guys,
how often do I get on here
and complain about anti-Semitism?
Well,
because I talked about Tucker Carlson
and Candace Owens being bigots.
What,
you don't like that?
It's confusing you
because your algorithm
is showing you videos
and you don't want me to remind you
of the stuff from the past.
And maybe that is what Yonis is going through.
Maybe he is confused.
Well,
now he's got to go through
in his face.
Oh my God.
Both of all, but these are all problems.
But I guess the reason I ask about the danger is, right?
We spent, you know, my lifetime anyway, it was like, you know, talking openly about the danger
of being critical of Israel or critical of some elite Jews or Jews in general was always
pawned off as anti-Santis.
Semitic. You weren't supposed to say that. Well, being critical of Jews in general should be pawned off as anti-Semitic.
Well, and so to so now we're in a place where we are fighting vehemently against the idea that being critical of a government that happens to be in whatever country is not necessarily being critical of the population of that or the ethnicity of that entity. Right. So everybody's kind of getting that. But when it comes to what you're talking about, you're
own personal danger. I think there are people who are, yes, dealing with confusion. Like,
they are really being inundated with information where they are really confused.
About what part? About, about, is Israel representative of all Jews? Do all Jews align with Israel?
If I'm critical of Israel, is that a bad thing? If I'm critical of a person who happens to
be Jewish, is that a bad thing? Like, you know what I mean? Like, it's not easy. And I'm not,
This is nothing to do with the emailer, by the way.
This is more to do with just a general discussion around what you're talking about.
No, I guess it's not easy, but at the same time,
there are concepts to us that are pretty easy.
I mean, not judging a person by the entire group or the nation that they're from.
That's right.
It's kind of what we ask of everybody to do, right?
Is to treat each person individually and not say, well, I've seen so many stories, though, about this thing.
And that makes me think that all people are that way.
Like if we're being honest, like, are you dumb?
In the words of Remy, are you dumb?
Like, come on.
No, it might be.
But what you're saying might be true, right?
But this is a person who, according to what they wrote, has been somebody who's been following you the whole time.
So why?
And something has happened to that person.
Yes.
The only thing that's happened since October 7th is that I have now had, I get hate from Jewish people every day.
And not Jewish people.
That's too broad.
pro-Israel Jewish people come after me every single day.
Why do I also need to get someone on the other side saying,
you mention anti-Semitism too much.
You care too much about your own people.
When do you advocate for other people?
When does Jonas advocate for other people?
I spend most of my time advocating for other people.
Most of my time is not advocating for Jewish people.
For a good reason, obviously.
Jewish people for the most part are doing well.
think we are in a very precarious time for Jewish people. I am legitimately worried that in my daughter's
lifetime, the confluence of all the things happening in the world will lead to a very bad time for
Jewish people again. That legitimately worries me. And by the way, I think people in America are
legitimately worried about the entire nation. As you should be. And black people are worried about
being black. And Latinos are worried about being Latino. But I speak about the worries of all the
No, no, no, but I'm saying it's all connected.
Correct, for sure.
That's really the point.
Right.
Is it's all connected.
And we spend a lot of time on this show,
speaking about the worries and concerns of all those groups.
I want to know why it bothers him so much that I'd occasionally mention the one that is about the group that I'm from.
Well, no, finally.
That's the interesting piece about this email.
He finally.
Something happened now.
After October 7th.
After 1,200 Jews were murdered in Israel, even though I think the Israeli government let it happen or maybe even facilitated it.
Either way, it doesn't change the tragedy of the deaths, correct?
That moment has led to a genocide by the Israeli government and has led to an increase in anti-Semitism because of the actions of the Israeli government.
And now we're in Iran.
And now we're in Iran because of Israel, with Israel, however it is.
And because I mention, I also do worry, though, about what people have to say about Jewish people.
Sometimes I'm like, do you really listen?
I question people like this.
Listen, I just wanted to examine it because it was interesting to me that it was,
because he said, I've been there since your first show with Seif.
Why would this talk?
And now after.
This has been my bravest run.
Right, but I don't, but this is what I'm getting at.
I don't think this is about you.
It's about the whole thing that he's been feeling.
It's about what he's experiencing in his algorithm and you're the closest person to him
that he spends time with that he could reach out to.
and say how he feels.
That's the interesting piece to me, right?
It's something happened.
And that's what I want us all to examine.
It's something's happening to all of us at the same time.
It's not just Israel.
It's not just immigrants.
It's not just black people.
It's not just the democracy.
It's all connected is what I'm saying.
He's going.
Go ahead.
You know what I'm saying?
And that's the dangerous part.
We're all very unsafe.
And you like you said, in my daughter's lifetime, right?
In my daughter's lifetime.
In her daughter's lifetime.
So it's something's happened to Jonas.
Something's happened to his algorithm.
Something happened to him, right?
Because of all of this noise.
But it's, this is profound.
I totally agree.
And it's, I guess it's like crazy, though, that the algorithm has affected him so much
that even in here and what I believe is a really balanced conversation amongst us every day.
That's right.
Three friends who care for each other's experiences who look different, who have different.
He still was like, but you.
You.
Yeah.
You.
But I guess the reason is striking me is because I feel like that's kind of a human nature thing,
where you lash out at the people you care about the most.
It's kind of like babies, right?
The reason babies act up most with their moms is because they have,
a serious connection with mom so they let their guard down like there's a thing in there i don't know
i'm sure there's some psychologist or some professional out here who could articulate it better than
what i'm saying i doubt it but yonis and you yon lockstep even deeper now because he's sucking you
you know what i'm saying do we have apology music if you ask grip for apology music i don't have
apology music because i need to apologize you know what i'm saying no i feel you something because that was
ill when he's because it stuck with me he was like i was there with your
first show what you went. No, listen. Hold on. Listen, in that era, Laura, I was talking crazy. And the
whole branding that Ebro came up with was, you're the Jew. Yeah. And I was out there like,
making crazy jokes. Black people like to blah, blah, blah, Jew. I was saying loose stuff for
years, being very, very provocative. He was down. But since October 7, when I believe I have taken
my biggest risks as an ally, when I say as an ally, I mean, for everybody to say,
hey, the things I learned about Israel, I'm learning were a lot of propaganda and what's being
perpetrated is evil. I consider that to be a pretty bold take to make publicly that most people
don't do. And this is the time when he's like, nah, I don't like it. That's crazy.
So let me ask you something. When you say since October, this is not about Jonas now.
Since October 7th, I've made my boldest move. Have you and your dad, because your dad has been doing
this and been very bold, bolder than you, right? My dad doesn't have anything to look.
anymore. No, but when he did. But when he did, he was still very bold, right? And talking about
Palestinian things before this time. Way before this time. Have there ever been a conversation
where it's like, hey, we as Jewish people who know what's happening and knows that there are
evil billionaires who also happen to be Jewish and or just pro-Israel in some psychotic biblical way,
We need to make sure that people know we are not them and they are not us.
Because you as a Jewish person saying I'm in danger, I'm putting myself in danger,
my professional career for telling what I believe to be the truth about a government,
not about a belief system, not about it, but just about a government.
It's very telling.
Because if you're not Jewish, what are you feeling when you want to tell the truth?
Yeah, I hear you
A whole other level of danger
It's different
Sometimes I go back and forth
On which I think is more dangerous
Really?
Yeah, because being a sellout
To a group
Being a perceived sellout
It can be different
But they can't just label you
Antisemitic
And get you out of a job
True, that's a protection layer
That's a they can't just go
He's anti-
You'd be like, what
Are you even talking about
Right, right
How is that even humanly possible?
That's true
That's a big protection
Right
And because of the way
the laws are written in America, the hate crime, I don't know, hate crime, but a termination law.
No, they, that would be true.
If you're labeled anti-Semitic, wrap it up.
Right.
But if you have no recourse.
But if you do that to a member of that group, that's going to be a tough legal argument.
Yes.
Right?
That is, that is compelling.
No, I hear you.
I hear you.
It's a crazy time, man.
It freaks me out.
Well, we should be freaked out.
And you should be freaked out, and you shouldn't stop talking about it.
And the old thing, but the old thing was, I'm freaked out by it, but ultimately, I'm in America.
Yeah.
And like even- That doesn't even fly, really.
And now that doesn't, now that really doesn't fly.
That's it.
Now that really doesn't fly.
I'm in America.
I saw a video the other day of Trump getting loved on by some pro-Israel nut being like,
you're the first Jewish president.
I'm like, see, there they go.
Pretending like because he's being pro-Israel by being pro-war, he's somehow,
Jewish in some way because of that.
There you go.
Intentionally blurring the line.
But that's the part that makes you go all this time that people were angry and yes,
anti-Semitic, blindly angry and anti-Semitic because of whatever they had seen,
experienced or knew, that their judgment of all Jewish people was clouded by individuals
who would do shit like that.
Mm-hmm.
And they thought that those people spoke on behalf of the entire group.
But the rest of the group was so like, listen, Israel's important, that they weren't willing to be like, no, stop it, knock it off.
No, they couldn't.
You didn't feel the position to be able to do that.
But that's why we're here now is because for generations, things that were not okay were allowed to fly under the guise of, but it's good for the whole group.
of Israel's the goal.
And how do you further the group of people who were
outwardly saying, that's not all of us.
Some of us, some of our Judaism is not based remotely
in Israel. The Seth Rogans of the world, the Larry Davis of the world,
the people who are like, nah, bro, that's not me.
I'm good. I don't know. I don't know how we further that
message because it will empower all of us more and give us more power.
Because now you see other people and you're like,
hey guys, we gotta say something.
Right. We're not, we're not like
the Sid Rosenbergs
and the Michael Rapoport's who,
their entire
identity as Jews
is just being loud
about Israel. It like,
my dad was talking about yesterday. My dad
dropped a gem on me the other day, actually. I'm sorry,
we'll go back to these messages. It's fought Friday for God's
sake. But my dad said to me the other day
he went, you know, because there's a lot
that's made of the Jewish brain, right?
The Jewish brain is like,
Like, you know, great doctors, great lawyers, great creators.
And hell, Einstein.
Writers.
But I got news for y'all.
I know some Jews that they weren't in the right line when they were having.
They weren't all in the same line when they were giving out the gifts.
When they said brains, they thought they said trains and took one to Minneapolis.
All right.
So, but there is a thing about the Jewish mind.
And not just about like, oh, we're so smart, but also like generous and thoughtful and giving and caring about society.
Like that is an idea that exists.
There are these writers, people who have always been forward thinking.
At some point in the post sort of Israel existence thing, my dad was saying he feels like a lot of people's minds were sort of corrupted by nationalism instead.
And rather going with like this sort of thought process that a lot of Jewish people used to have.
The thought that Jews were so different, like the Jewish exceptionalism that's existed, it actually became nationalism.
And the irony is that makes you the same as everybody else.
Everybody else who has their dumb nationalistic.
My country is the best.
Israel has now become that for a lot of Jews.
I got news for all my Jewish friends.
You're human like everyone else.
Every group has exceptional individuals and every group has dumb individuals.
Correct.
And because you're human like everyone else, you're victim to pack mentality.
Which means that when the dominant pack is moving in a certain way, if you're not brave enough, if you don't have braveness,
courage. You're going to go the way
all humans go. You're not any different. America, same for
you. There is no exceptionalism. There is no such. There are
exceptional people, but it doesn't. But it does, there's not like an exceptional
ethnic group. No. The whole thing is a completely made up
construct. You know, it's like when people talk about Kenyans in the marathon, I got news for you.
There's Kenyans who can't run a marathon. Right. And there are people
all over the world who can run marathon. That's right. And
They're not Kenyan.
Correct.
So it's knock it off.
So.
But that's all.
We've all done these things in our groups to make us believe certain things.
Listen, black people are the best dancers.
That's just.
Well, that knows.
Some things could be true.
That's just facts.
The soul is different.
That's just facts.
But no.
Beyond that, all jokes is odd.
Beyond that, we're all just humans, man.
No, but like, my point that I was trying to make is not that the actual Jewish brain is different or better.
But it's that we focused on certain things that were not about dumb bullshit.
Like that wasn't a driven home point because the Jews didn't really have a home.
They were all over the place.
So whatever the thing you're into, you focused on.
But at some point now, these people have become obsessed with this Jewish nationalism, which is Israel.
So you have yo-yo's like a Mike Rappaport when they get introduced to it.
You know, these people aren't real Jews.
This guy put to Phelanon for the first time after October 7th.
That's the thing you wrap around your arm for Jewish prayer.
He got all into it.
He's doing it on.
Bro, you didn't even know how to do that.
You weren't celebrating Shabbas.
But, you know, that's the same.
They're all pretending now.
But there's all part of this whole thing.
But there's all pretenders.
You know, when there's like activists who one moment, you're, you know, doing one thing and the trend goes another way.
Now you're doing it.
That's it.
You're frauds.
You're frauds.
And I think.
Well, I think you're looking for something to believe in.
Like, I don't know why I'm on this page on a Friday of this kind of like trying to understand the psyche of people.
Let's just.
You're tired of me.
Oh, no, no.
You're doing good stuff.
But no, I'm trying to like, there's something in some human beings that they're looking for a place.
place to belong. They don't have a place to belong.
Yeah. And they're looking for something to
believe in and they're looking for something authentic.
And Israel gives some Jewish people
strength. Yes. Because they're strong.
Best military. That's perceived
as strong. Best military.
Bomb the ish out of you.
That's always been the thing, the Israel military,
you don't want to mess with. The best Air Force in the world.
The IDF is this, to all these different things.
Iran didn't get the memo. No,
they apparently not. But
so I think some people take to it as a strength
thing because rather than being like,
nerdy or part of society where you feel like maybe I'm not that strong. You can look to that
as something that's strong. It was something to grab onto to be a tough guy when it's not tough. That's not
Jewish toughness does not come from the Israeli military. That's not how our toughness is defined.
Our toughness is defined by surviving over and over again and finding ways to innovate and be
ingenious and doing great things, not freaking military. Yonis, this is all your fault. Thanks, Yonis.

I've been

for a minute
but I'll be
busy
and be
forgetting
congratulations
much love
on
leaving the
plantation
and going independent.
I definitely think there was a smart move and the way to go.
I got kicked out.
I do believe you guys are leaving some of the algorithm hustle on the table.
Uh-oh.
I haven't heard you.
I mentioned encouraging the viewers to hit the hype button.
I don't know if you know what that is.
So I apologize if this comes off as condescending.
No, we don't.
But, you know, all the stuff liking, commenting, sharing.
That's all great.
But that's available to everybody, whether you got 50,000 viewers or, you know, 50 million.
And everybody has those tools.
There's a hype button that's only available to small creators.
Once you get over 500,000 subs, that button goes away.
You guys should definitely be encouraging people in your videos to hit that button.
Loot, we got a hype button?
There's a separate ranking, like a leaderboard.
You can get to number one hyped video on YouTube.
And that super boosts your videos to hit more people.
The caveat to it is it is not available while you're live.
So it's after the live session ends and the videos there in your library, people can go back and hit that button.
So for the 3,000 or so people that watch live every day, they won't be able to hit it right away.
But, you know, your videos are getting 20, 25,000 views a day.
All those other people, you know, they have the opportunity to hit that button as they're watching.
Really?
You guys should definitely do that.
The clipping, the smaller videos and smaller segments is great.
You know, Louis Baskin, whoever's doing that griff, great job.
but you guys should also,
you guys should mention
hyping video,
hit the hype button
multiple times throughout an episode
so that there's a mention
of the hype in every clip segment
that there is.
That way all those videos
can get hyped and boost it too.
And that's how you're going to get to 100K before July.
That's how you get to a million
six years from now
so that Rosenberg,
you know,
doesn't want to quit and stop doing it
because it's taking too long.
Rosenberg was going to quit in six months.
Yeah, much love, much success.
Wish you have the best.
Aw, thank you.
Where is this hype?
Anybody in here
heard of a hype button?
I've
Okay, I've never heard of a hype button.
Lou, you never told us?
So thanks for putting me on.
All right.
Lou's shrugging it off like it's nothing.
Okay, no.
Gryph says the YouTube hype button
is located directly below the video player,
often in the button row alongside like and share,
specifically in the mobile app.
It is available for videos uploaded within the last seven days
from eligible smaller creators,
typically under 500,000
subs. That's what Edwin
you said. All right. Dope.
But I don't see. Our arrogant
King, Lou, King of all things,
claims it's no big deal.
Oh, there it is. Hype.
Cool. No, I appreciate all
of the point. Lou, why would you claim
it's no big deal if it could do that?
Have we been hyping?
Congratulations. You plagued yourself.
I don't know why. Why do we act like we got
all the answers? Why are we so arrogant?
You ain't got the answers, Lou.
why are we shrugging this off like this is not helpful
I didn't say you you're looking right at the guy you're giving him a pass you see him
over there like he got everything figured out leaning back with his feet kicked up
and we got and we got a friend of the show giving us details on how to get subs Lou you
should feel embarrassed no we're hyping and hyping and hyping so we
now I see it so it's not on like the videos the one that like if we if you just
did one it's not there but like the next day the hype button's there and that you can
up a score. I don't know how effective it is.
Maybe Lou knows it's not actually that effective.
I don't know. So you believe Lou over
Edward? I'm not saying that.
I'm putting out what he could be thinking.
I want people to try to hype it. Let's try to hype it.
All right, all right, all right. Let's get to an email.
All right, what's you got, Laura South? This is from
Hallie. First of all, I'm
absolutely obsessed with the show.
My question is for Laura.
I started listening in mid-2020
so maybe this is a topic you've covered
before, but the other day you mentioned that you're not
speaking Spanish or teaching your
daughter Spanish. That's not true. I don't remember that. I 100% respect your parenting decision,
but I am genuinely curious to why. For context, I'm a Guatemalan adoptee. I can never say that
word right. You're adopted from Guatemala. I was discussing what you said with another Guatemalan
who was also adopted, and we were both surprised to hear it, wondering if your decision was rooted in
current political climate. We were on a call and wanted to discuss how people can provide resources
to people who are adopted, just to know the rights.
I spent a good chunk of my adulthood trying to learn Spanish.
For me, it was always embarrassing to look like I should be able to speak Spanish,
but actually not being able to.
I was raised with white parents, as many people who are adopted.
Language is one of the ways that I feel connected to the culture,
which I was separated from.
Now, as a parent of a two-year-old, I've been trying to teach him Spanish while still learning myself.
She goes on and on and on and on, saying,
I would truly love your thoughts and perspective.
I want to learn more.
I love all three of you.
I love the show.
And your commitment to every day to your audience is giving genuine content.
I love you.
Okay.
So I never said that.
And I don't know where you got that from.
The only thing I did say is that while I'm at home, Ricardo and I don't really speak Spanish to each other.
Right.
But I speak Spanish to my daughter.
And I'm always trying to teach her.
And her daughter.
And her nanny is basically only speaks Spanish for the right.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
My nanny only speaks Spanish.
and I've actually put her in like Spanish classes since she was like six months.
Like, you know, the little learning labs all in Spanish.
You know, as she got every year, I put her in something that was in Spanish.
So no, I think it's super important.
Listen, I got so many opportunities because I'm bilingual, so I would never not encourage that.
My guess is she is basing this on the story about bullying in which you said that the friend spoke Spanish fluently.
and was using slang that she wouldn't know.
Yes.
Well, the part of this email that Laura skipped over is she said,
I found that being bilingual has many benefits,
but I also recognize my privilege to be able to blend into white culture.
So maybe I'm truly just blind to the negatives of learning and speaking Spanish.
But that's her.
Yeah, that's her leaning into like, you know, thinking that I'm against teaching my daughter.
That's right.
No.
No, no, no.
So I'm sorry, you're wrong.
I believe there's tons of benefits of being bilingual,
and I am constantly trying to teach my daughter how to speak Spanish.
It is a little harder for me because I don't speak it at home with my partner,
but I do speak it with other people.
So there you go.
There you go, Laura.
I want to shout out Ivory from Staten Island.
Loves and supports the new show, loves family matters,
able to connect with you all.
She even has a Patreon, Ivory.
We love you and Anthony down there in Trinidad.
Been listening since 2016.
Loved what we're doing.
thinks we sound freer, delve deeper into topics that affect people's lives.
Ebro, take your flowers, man.
I'm saying that because you've been listening to past year.
I read through the lines and realized you wanted to improve the standard of the show's brand
beyond what the plantation was doing and you've been doing it.
Thanks, man.
Thanks for that.
Yeah, we're working hard up here, man.
I give us all a hard time, including myself, because I want to do a great job.
And I do think that there's some, you know, we sat on our hands for years as the station
that we used to work for went through financial troubles.
We watched it get sold.
There was the pandemic.
There was a lot of things that we just...
A lot happened.
Things weren't happening.
Studios falling apart.
And it was frustrating for a long time, but I think we were...
Well, I'll speak for myself.
We were loyal to the brand.
You know what I mean?
Even though we always thought that our digital exposure
and marketing was trashed.
We thought that people weren't really getting the gist of our show.
If you weren't actually tuned in each day,
day. And so there was a lot of
material just left on the table. So yeah, we're
happy to be here and be able to do this.
Rosenberg, should we go voice note or
back to you? Up to you.
Fatt Friday. This is Yams.
Yo, happy Friday, Freedom, yo.
Love and appreciate y'all, as always. I'm an avid
listener. My name is Yams.
I've been listening to y'all forever, so it's
a pleasure to even
be able to have discourse with y'all
once a week. It's great.
I'm going to keep this one.
short and sweet because it feels like when I go a little bit deeper I got my third eye open now
whenever I go a little bit deeper it seems like my my my recordings don't get played whoa
I talk about God my record don't get played oh no but now I got a questions on the since
Jay Cole is you know on this whole album run and tour and all that stuff I want to know where
is he rank and I know Rosenberg you're a big rancor and in comparison guys what do y'all think he
ranks in terms of
greatest storytelling rappers.
Like obviously there are
every great rapper in a sense
is a great storyteller from big
to... Not every. I know
the OGs always say Slick, Slick Rick
or Ice Cube or
Nas of course, Eminem,
right? There's a whole list of them, but
I don't think anybody dedicated their
entire career the way Jay Cole has
and committed his
essentially career to storytelling
raps. And I think, honestly,
if you throughout his whole career from the very first album
or for the very first mixtape,
it's all been storytelling.
And I'm just curious,
does this album kind of put him in that conversation
of best storytellers of all time?
And if so, is he the best?
I want to know y'all thoughts.
Thank you.
The best?
That's a tough put for Jay Cole.
In the convo, I'm down.
Yeah, he's a good.
I haven't spent recent time thinking about
that specific metric metric of storytelling rapper but i do i do love it and i do rank it highly
in my when i'm rating rappers that i love i rank storytelling as a high thing because it's hard to do
yeah i i i just can't jump in and and i hate to be boring also but i've never considered
is he like among the greatest storytellers i think it's an interesting thing to ponder how good he is
a storyteller he's definitely up there in the in the recent crop
Like of the current generation?
Would you put it, let me ask you this.
In storytelling specifically, would you put him above Kendrick?
Yes, probably.
Drake?
Yes, probably.
Okay.
And that's the preeminent three right now.
So of the recent greats, he's number one in that metric, Jay Cole.
I have to like rethink.
Kendrick's storytelling is different.
Right.
Jay Cole's more traditional when he storytells.
You know what I mean?
All right.
But that's kind of what you're looking for, right?
Like, I don't know.
Can you follow his story and he takes you on a journey that you can follow?
Yeah.
I think he may be the best of current times.
So that's something for sure.
Okay.
But then when you're going big, Eminem, Nas, Slick Rick.
I mean, listen, now we're.
Jay.
Now it gets complicated.
There's a lot of, yeah, people who could really do this quite well.
Three stacks.
Three stacks stories are good.
Great.
Hell, Ice Cube has a few.
Ice, man, listen, he mess up.
It's on time of the projects, yo.
Facts.
That too.
That's beyond the triple double,
which I'm calling Capuln.
He's talking about it was a good day.
He never believes that Ice Cube
Fed around and got a triple double.
Who keeps their stats in a pickup game?
Here's my 10th to rebound.
Oh, triple double for me.
Well, it's tough.
You could keep points, but keeping assists
and another metric and a pickup game is tough.
No, all of them.
You're a triple double.
Got another one.
People are like, what?
You're a loser, dude.
What are you doing?
Yeah.
Rosenberg, you got an email?
Yeah, here we go.
Jake writes us and says,
Hey, guys, loyal podcast listener.
And when I heard y'all talk about Kenza being all over Maya,
I had to go check the YouTube replay just to see it.
I've been dealing with the same thing with my four-year-old niece.
I have a six-month-old.
Ever since she was born, my niece is all over her all the time.
She gets told to leave her alone, and she comes right back.
Over and over and over.
It's past cute.
and just too much all in our personal space,
hugging her, trying to kiss on her,
and just always being in her face.
If we're playing or trying to interact with the baby,
my niece fills the urge to get right in the mix,
and it distracts her.
She keeps her awake when she's trying to nap
and bothers her while she's nursing.
I'm hoping when my daughter grows up,
she'll tell her to leave her alone
because I feel like if I say anything
that I'm the bad guy,
because my wife also doesn't want to make it seem
like she's favoring our daughter over her niece,
who used to always have her time and attention.
can't you talk to the parents
you're her sibling or whoever
but you just got to keep you got to stay on it
it's not to set it and forget it
dealing with children or
or are they alone with the niece
like the niece spends a lot of time at their house
and they care for the niece almost like another child
if that's the case
if that's the case then I think you should feel
even more comfortable sitting her down and explaining
how old is the niece did she
four tough and the baby's
She's a six-month-old.
Four-year-old. Tough.
I mean, we're trying to explain to Kens.
At Kansas 5.
But Kenz is learning.
She's learning.
She'll give a little space and come right back.
She came right back.
But even at you're like at Salasi's birthday.
Like she started.
But like Salasi's too, right?
Salasi will tell you no and push you.
Me this morning.
Yeah.
Right.
Well, and by the way, Maya's starting to be that way too.
She's starting to like duck.
Right.
And she doesn't want to hug for me.
She's like, eh.
And I'm like, okay, sorry.
So.
you're six-month-old will start by one probably to start.
I think that's probably what he's looking for.
It's like around one, one and a half.
Maybe, yeah.
But is it the worst thing in the world to say to the parents or the niece?
Hey, let's work on boundaries a little bit.
Well, he said he is.
Yeah.
He said he is telling the niece like chill.
Yeah, he said, I've been dealing with the same.
I don't know that he's actually dealing with it.
It's okay to say we need some space.
That's fine.
Hey, you got to relax for a minute.
I feel like if I say anything, then I'm the bad guy.
Then I'm the bad guy.
No.
You're kids, bro.
And you love your niece.
Yes.
So saying, honey, your cousin loves you, but you got to let her have space.
She doesn't want you in her face all the time.
Not right now.
Yeah.
And you're going to have to say multiple times because she's four.
Multiple times a day every day.
Right.
That's okay.
Don't feel bad.
For the next year.
So just buckle up and get used to it.
Right.
Yeah.
You'd be all good.
You know, that was good.
And with that, Laura,
you want to do another email or does that dovetail right into family matters.
Oh, man, that's a good one because this one is kind of serious.
All right, go.
But I like it.
But I like it.
This is a good one.
All right.
This is from Ronald.
Okay.
He said, hi, folks.
I'm a big fan of the show, everyday listener.
I would like to add to what Laura said about the Cuban doctors.
There used to be this fantastic program in Brazil called more doctors,
mice medicals.
Basically, Brazil had contracts with doctors from Cuba who would come to work in the very
poor areas that none of the rich Brazilian doctors wanted to do their
resident season. So they were very much needed. However, there was a huge backlash from the wealthy
white Brazilian doctors. There was a ton of racism. These Cuban doctors would arrive at the airport and be
met by dozens of white doctors shouting racist stuff at them. I actually did some coverage on that
situation myself back then. Our laws about racism became stronger in 2023, even though the
Constitution from 88 says this is a crime. I'm a journalist. I do documentaries and I've worked all over
the world covering sports, immigration in America,
malicious in Mexico, and I also did coverage from Gaza in 2014.
Oh, you're looking for a job?
So thank you very much, Lord, for bringing attention to the program that Cuba does.
Cuba goes through a lot of ish, but they were always very careful with health care.
That's a very important lesson for the world.
Congratulations on the show.
Whenever you want to talk to a Brazilian dude, I'm here.
Well, we have one here.
That's right.
Who?
Plato.
Just kidding.
You guys really make my day.
I'm trans-Brazilian, bro.
I was going to say he just made the Jewish guy Brazilian.
Earlier he was saying they made a white dude Jewish.
Well, you could be Brazilian and Jewish.
All right.
Well, thanks, Ibro, for talking about the racist woman that is going to jail in Brazil,
where, again, racism is a crime.
You go to jail.
You don't just lose your job.
That's another thing America could use as an example.
Keep up the great work, Rosenberg.
You are not a self-hating Jew.
I met a group of young Israeli kids that fight the genocidal occupation.
in Tel Aviv. Zionism got nothing to do with the beautiful teachings of Judaism.
Thank you. Zionism is Christian B.S. rooted in old school, American, and European colonial.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, we'll get to it. Talk to him. Jewish culture rocks. You do a lot for the cause.
That's quite the counter to the message earlier. Right? To Yoni? Yonis. Oh, no, no, no, it's not
counter to that because he's saying, I'm a good Jew, this guy. Yes. And Yonis was saying, I'm too much of a Jew.
No, he wasn't even saying that.
He was just questioned whether you're an ally.
Because I bring up anti-Semitism.
Yeah, but he wasn't saying you're too much of a Jew.
And this guy's saying I'm a good Jew, not because I bring up anti-Semitism,
because I speak out about what Israel is.
Right, because you are an ally.
There you go.
But what kind of ally was the other guy suggesting I'm not?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Of the other?
I don't know.
Yeah, whoever you're not an ally of.
You can't use just ally loose.
I mean, I know we tend to do that.
You got to be specific.
Yeah, I mean, I assume usually it means specifically an ally to,
The black folks in America, I assume that's...
They have allies for feminism, allies for...
But that's what I'm saying.
There's allies everywhere.
There's allies for all type of things.
You've got to specify your ally.
Listen.
I just did that to see if I get a pop out of you.
Oh, clean.
He didn't work.
He didn't fall for it, gang.
He's maturing this week since the Patreon.
It's a rare condition this day and age
to read any good news on the newspaper page
and love and tradition of the grand design.
Some people say it's even harder to find.
Well, then there must be some magic clue inside these gentle wall.
Because all I see is a towel of dreams.
Now, Laura, you was outside with Kenza.
I saw you guys with purses.
It was a silly video because I have a purse that has like a little mini purse.
Okay.
So it started because I was like looking at it in the mirror.
And then Kenza grabbed it.
And she's like, me too, you know.
Oh, I thought you guys were doing some sort of purse challenge.
No, it was a challenge.
And then Ricardo was like, here, let me just shoot a video.
So we just did it.
Because you tagged the company.
I thought it was a promo for Kansas Clause.
No.
I thought it was a promo for mischief that company.
Yes, my friend works there and she gave me, they gifted me a purse.
So I showed them some love.
But it wasn't about that either.
Yeah, it was just a.
Do we have it?
That was cute.
Let's look at the video.
Hey girl.
Hey girl.
She's funny.
She's good at it.
Fashion is the theme this week.
So Laura gifted or I don't know how,
gifted a coat to Salasi that's like now a,
I don't know, like almost like a family heirloom amongst us all.
That's a multi-generational.
Airloom.
It was handed down to me from Kansas cousin waffle.
A waffle.
Yes. So Kenza wore the jacket, but it's a really nice
coat, excuse me, not a jacket, it's a coat.
Oh, is there a difference in jacket?
It's a raincoat. It's a raincoat.
So it's expensive.
So I was like, yes, I'm going to save this for Salasi.
So I gave it to, I was like, jazz, this is for you.
I know you don't want extra stuff.
But she wanted this.
This is a good one.
Yeah.
Let's have a look at the vid.
So she wore it the other day.
She's had it for now, what, a year?
Yeah.
Look, lady.
How is that jacket?
How is that jacket?
It's nice.
Yeah
And what else?
Is it comfortable?
Oh
I like your shirt
Very nice shirt
Very nice pants
You got the coordinate
Hey no
So cute
You know her mom be putting her in fits
You know the trendy big pants
Is crazy
Salasi's got a batch of trendy clothes
I love her turn again
I love her turns
One more time
Ooh
Sighting
Yeah
Okay
Good seeing you
Bye bye
Bye
Bye
She's so cute
I die
Bye bye
So yeah I'm looking forward to my wearing that coat
Yeah we got handed off
In about a year's time
We got handed off pretty soon
I told jazz
I wish she grows out of me
We pass it down to Maya
She said no but you gotta get some good out
Did she wear that out?
Yeah we went to a restaurant
That was on our way out
To a restaurant
I don't like you don't want to wear it too much too
Because then it's kids
So you're gonna get it dirty
Then you're gonna have to dry clean it
Then you hand it down
You don't want to do that either
But you don't want to overwear it
It's so funny
You gotta wear it
But having, even wearing an item like that, even though it's like been given to you.
No, it's almost a toddler, Gucci raincoat.
It's like sort of.
It's ridiculous.
It's sort of embarrassing.
But we're doing what you're supposed to do.
No, 100% everyone's doing the right thing.
Wait, who had it first?
Waffle.
Shout to Waffle wherever you are.
Which I think it was gifted to her too.
By the way, it probably was.
You know Kerwin's a darling of the fashion industry.
He was probably gifted it.
Now it's been passed down through generations.
But still if someone were to see it, they're like, did these assholes?
by her kid, a $1,000 raincoat.
No, by the way, no, we didn't.
No.
No, no, no.
It was given.
But anyway, that's what's going on with the fan band.
How was Maya's week of running?
You told her that she was running.
No, she's up and about.
She's moving around a lot.
We have a new tooth that's come in.
Okay.
But you have now four on the top.
Okay.
Did they start to even out?
You had complained that they was coming in and one, two, skip with you.
No, it wasn't that they, yeah, no, she still has a bit of a gap.
There's still gaps between all.
You want that.
You want that.
There's gaps between all of them.
Yeah.
I feel like.
She looks like a psycho.
But she's chewing pretty good.
All right.
She's eating pretty good.
Yesterday she was annoying.
My wife made beans.
And she was really into them at first.
But then when I came home to feed her dinner, she didn't want to eat them off the spoon.
The only way I was getting any luck with them was putting them on her tray and her picking up black beans and eating them one by one.
Which, as you can imagine, led to beans all over her face.
Of course.
All over her hands.
And some good farts later on.
Yeah, probably.
We put her to bed, so that's between her and the nannet.
So earlier this week, I think this was on the Patreon.
We do a lot of shows.
I don't remember where things happen.
You were talking about the massage, the piano man.
Oh, yeah.
Where was that?
When did we do that?
That's for Patreon, which dropped yesterday.
Yeah.
Or two days ago.
Two days ago.
And so I, in that episode, said to jazz,
or I said that, y'all, I've been slipping
because I know Jazz likes massage
when I give her massages, and I've been
slipping, I need to do it. So anyway, I told
her I said that. Okay.
Her response, now,
tell me if this is a trap
or take it at face value.
Okay. All right?
Her response was,
oh, babe,
I can't really enjoy your massages
because I get concerned
that you're working too hard.
And so, oh, and that's what was my other one.
I forgot out.
She don't like my massages.
So she doesn't like my massage.
Okay.
She's lying and she's basically like trying to say like, you know,
oh, I don't want you working hard.
You work a hard day.
I don't want you to come home and give me massages.
Or I should take it at face value that she's really concerned about me working too hard
and she would rather go get a massage.
Which one is it, guys?
Knowing jazz, she's just, she's very,
caring and she thinks about other people a lot.
So I think.
Taking that face value.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Why you got it?
I took it at face value,
you Lord.
I just wanted to ask the crew, man.
Yeah, man.
See, Roseberg's with me.
That's why he's still thinking about it.
He's not sure.
I don't know.
That does sound like a reach.
I mean, jazz is really nice,
but that's like exceptional.
That's crazy.
I can't even accept a massage.
I can't enjoy the massage from you, babe,
because I get concerned.
that you're working too hard.
You know, you know what?
I'm sorry.
It's bullish.
It's bullish.
It's got to be bullish.
It has to be.
Because that's incredible,
if she's being honest.
And it's also like...
Really, bro?
Like, it's a little derange almost.
Ebro, no, hold on.
Ebro works hard as a radio executive
and host.
He's not laying bricks during the day.
Okay?
Like, he's tired,
but he can muster up the strength for a massage.
I think she's...
I don't know.
know, bro. Maybe the massages are whack.
Now, we will hear, we will hear back from her
on this. Why? Well, she's going to hear
this. She's going to, she's listening right now.
But she's going to double down
and be like, no, babe, no.
I don't know. We'll see. You think
she might come to her. I'll tell you the truth.
Your massages are whack. I'd rather not even waste my
time. Or she's going to come for you.
This might be beef. How could it
be that she, I mean, she's that
not, don't get me on, she's super nice.
She's worried, you can't, like
it's too much? No, she can't. She can't,
She can't enjoy it because she's thinking about me.
That's why I'm going to call her friend Natalie then.
I think she's lying.
I think she enjoys it.
But she could also feel for Iber being like, damn, man, my man works really hard and he's
giving me a massage.
I probably just went through her head.
That's all.
I think she thinks of is I walk out of the house at 7 a.m.
and I don't come back in house talking.
That's all she's.
Well, that part's real.
Yeah.
And I'm bouncing from place to place all day.
I appreciate the idea of that sentiment.
It's not one I can relate to.
That's not what's going on over there, piano, man.
It cannot.
Yo, piano man.
The piano man.
Walks out of the house at 7 a.m.
I come back.
Walks back in at 12 for 90.
Helps with the baby and then bounces till 6 p.m.
7.
7.30.
Then comes back in the house as piano.
And then gets the baby when I come back.
And then gets the baby when you come up.
Well, so not always, but for the most part finishes up.
Come on, piano man.
And then piano man's got to tickle these ivories.
Yeah.
So I don't know.
Maybe she's telling the truth.
Or maybe your massages are.
I, but she'd rather just...
They're not really John Blaze.
No, and she'd rather just go...
Or maybe what she's really saying is,
I can tell you're tired because your massages are trapped.
Right.
It's not...
No, because sometimes Natalie will be like, I...
You know?
I'm good.
Because you're not even...
And then I'm offended.
And then I'm like, oh, really?
It's not good enough?
Wow.
That will happen.
A woman will tell you.
All right, cool, cool, cool.
It's not great.
You're not bringing it today.
Oh, my God.
Wait, I did something really mean yesterday.
Oh.
So.
To your partner?
There we go.
DeKenza.
Here we go.
We went to a dentist.
Everything's great.
But the doctor's been telling me like, yo, we got a floss.
Kenza has the gaps in her teeth, but except in the back, right?
The molars are tight in the back.
The molars are tight.
So I'm like, we got a floss.
So I've been teaching her how to floss.
So I got in there and it was tight.
I couldn't get it out.
So she started freaking out.
I had a laugh attack.
I was sitting there crying, crying.
Laughing at your own child panic.
And she's like going like.
this to me like, mom.
Oh, traumatized Kenza.
And I couldn't, I was crying.
Because you couldn't get the floss out?
Why didn't you just slide it to the side?
I was trying to, but she was just, and then I was like, okay, let's both breathe.
I was like, Kenza.
I said, you pull it out.
She's like, you know, I just pull it out.
And she goes, oh.
Right, because it's floss.
On one side, it's coming right out.
But Pete, I was laughing so hard.
I don't know why.
I was laughing at her.
Because you're a piece of.
Laughing at her.
She's like, now y'all know why we've been.
calling Laura a piece of is stowis for so long.
I get it, though. That is pretty funny.
Because you're panicking.
And then she had a shot wasn't, you framed this wrong.
You framed this as you being a piece of ish.
This sounds like a fun laugh with your daughter.
But it was mean at the beginning because I'm like doing it with her and I'm like, okay,
and it was stuck because I kept trying to like pull it.
Well, I see it, trying to get in there.
And then she's like, hold out, wait.
Then she started panicking and then I just started laughing.
I'm more impressed that she's flossing.
That's good.
That's great.
With a five-year-old getting in their flosser?
I mean, that's better than what happened.
to me the other night because we've been cutting a pineapple.
Remember I told you guys about the pineapple?
So when I cut up the pineapple, I hand pieces of pineapple out.
I gave a piece of Salasi.
She's walking around eating it.
Oh, she got one of those things stuck?
No, she got it stuck in her throat and her mom.
So I had to hit her on the back and get the chunk out.
Oh, God.
And my back was turned while I was shopping up the pineapple.
You didn't notice?
Well, her mom was right.
I didn't see it.
So Jazz noticed it.
Jazz caught it because Salasi was like kind of gagged.
And the mom was like, bow.
And it came out?
Yeah, and we have one of those, you know, jazz is on it.
She has one of those little face mask pump things
We keep it out she don't have one
No
Yeah get one for choking the choking hazard kit
Chokey I think it's called the choky
Or something like that
I don't know what it's called
And what is it for?
If your child starts a choke
You put the mask on their face
It's got the pump on it for you to pump
And get whatever's lodged in there out
What do you mean there's a pump on it?
Like a it's like a little thing that you press
That provides like air pressure
To get the whatever's in their throat out
It sucks out of their mouth
Yes
Yeah I don't know
Ricardo just dug his finger in there and pulled it out
you're not supposed to do that.
You're not supposed to that because you can push it farther.
Well, he did.
I know I did that once before and I got yelled out by Natalie because I could have.
No, you got to lean them forward.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, that I know.
And when they're really little, I know you like hold them upside down and bow.
Yeah.
But once they get bigger, that's harder to do.
Well, yeah, you still got a manhandle them.
You got to do it.
Get it up on your, you're still going that way.
Yeah.
You're saying this thing.
You know, the bottom of the pineapple piece.
There goes right there.
Grips got it.
What's it called?
Life back.
Life back.
That's the one we got.
and it comes with the adult face piece and the kid face piece.
So I don't understand.
So you put one thing on their face.
Yeah, like an oxygen mask.
And then what else do you do?
And you pull the plunge.
And you plunge their mouth.
Yes.
Yeah, basically.
But that requires them laying on their back.
Yes.
You just do it quickly.
Because they're babies.
You know what I mean?
But if you lay them on their back, isn't it more likely to fall back?
Well, not with the plunge.
The plunge is supposed to yank it.
But you got to do it fast.
Lay down.
Boom.
That's what the professionals say to get, man.
Call them professionals.
Make sure you have one at home.
And everybody at home, make sure you get one.
I'm so paranoid about choking.
So is jazz.
I still cut Kansas Greeps.
She's five years old.
Cut it half.
I play no games.
Jazz is on it.
She's on it with that.
I need to get this right now.
Life vac.
We've one at home, two in the cars.
Well, y'all got two in the car.
Oh, you're not playing.
There goes the picture right there.
Look.
Life vac for the babies.
I didn't know about this till today.
This is big.
Yeah.
Griff has two in the car.
What are you eating in the car?
Filet mignon. No kids.
Kids are snacking. They're eating
puffs, crackers. It would be
anything, bro. Because you're counting on them
to take small bites or
to fully chew. What if they don't? What if they
go to swallow something that they didn't fully chew?
And they just slip in the kids.
But I have a...
I'm just curious about Griff's car.
A double choke simultaneously.
I mean, one of each car.
Oh, one of each car.
I thought he's got two in the car.
Both kids, same time.
Oh, my God. What was that movie?
doing right this. You know, just a quick like this.
No!
No! What's happening?
What are y'all talking about?
Yo, my man.
Yo.
It's Friday, bro.
No, it's out of control, bro.
Friday vibe.
Friday.
And then also, and I need y'all in the chat on this,
Jazz told me, while
driving, Salasi was able to open the car door.
Yes.
How is that possible on a modern car
when the door's locked once you start
driving. You need the child safety lot going.
Oh my God. Because that happened
to be in an Uber one time.
Kensel was just like what? And I was like, oh my
God. I caught it quickly.
But because they don't, if you're in an Uber,
they don't usually lock the door. Right. No, but
her car has the auto locks on it.
That's crazy and she's driving.
No, no, no, no. I would have.
She freaked out. Of course.
You know, the door opening, that's freak out
to the territory right there. Yeah, because
Silos is at that age now where she just can reach
over and be like, bach.
I guess I also didn't mention that last week when coming home from my niece's birthday
We
Maya had the most birthday cake she's ever had
Now birthday cake that my that her grandmother makes is not like birthday cake birthday cake
It's it's homemade
Angel food yeah yeah um one layer of homemade icing and strawberries in the middle okay
So it's not a big birthday cake but it's it's cake yeah right it's got sugar
And she was into it and it's and Natalie's like guys she's like might finish this whole piece
Like she really is enjoying this and she gives her you know cake and then immediately I we had to go almost like five minutes after the cake we had to go
So we go in the car drive all the way back to the city get to the east side and as we're pulling to the city
That is like she's throwing up and then I could hear her like two more times like nah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Strawberry the whole thing the whole too much for our system and then the drive
Hit me with the button, bro.
And she's still riding backwards.
I mean, oops.
Congratulations.
You played yourself.
And then you got to go clean that seat.
I'm never going to get the, I'm never going to get the Nuna cover back on the thing.
Forget it.
You know, they have.
On the car seat?
Yeah.
Oh, I haven't even tried yet, but I know what I'm looking.
The amount of snaps and, oh, my God.
No, you can do it.
You can do it.
By the way, my, my Duna was so messed up from the throw-up.
I had it professionally clean.
There's people who do that.
Car seats because, you know, you can't use, like, flammable things to clean it.
You can't just unsnap it off the thing and throw it in a wash?
No, with the entire thing.
It got in the nooks and crannies.
Of the actual plastic, too.
Yeah, man, it was gross.
So I had to, yeah, there's people who, like, there's actually, it's pretty cool.
I'm going to have to look it up, but there's stay-at-home moms who do this as, like, a little side hustle.
Right.
They have all, like, the green solutions to clean it properly.
Yes, no, that's, that's useful to know.
I used a few different things.
I think we're good.
but man, that vomit
You know, look, I'll be honest, guys
your kids sleep through piss
and do-do, you know what I mean?
If there's some old remnants of some vomit
on their car seat, they're going to be a right.
Rassan got four joints. I know y'all ain't
clean all the cars. Oh, don't worry. No, they did more
than that. They got rid of them all. Hit the button.
Congratulations.
You played yourself. Every single item
gone and then had another baby.
No, that's crazy. No, we never seen anything like this before.
And y'all ready to get to
the guru? Oh, we're hitting a guru today?
You don't see this every day.
We missed one this week.
We're due.
It's time for the guru.
Hey, yo, it's time for the gurus.
Rosenberg.
All right.
You know, you are a beautiful queen.
Ebro, don't ever play yourself.
You're not a guru.
Now, real talk, we last week really, really did a bad job with the interviews and everything,
getting to the guru.
This week, we missed Monday.
And so sometimes we don't get to it on Fridays.
So I wanted to make sure we.
We got to it, man.
Managed the time.
Pretty good.
It's a good call by you.
We did 40 minutes of fought emails to start the damn show today.
But it was a damn good talk.
All right.
What do you got there?
The original gurus at gmail.com.
That's where you email us.
We need more.
So send them over.
All right.
Let's get straight to it.
Who's writing to us, Rosenberg?
So many people are in need, Laura.
The original gurus at gmail.com.
The original gurus at gmail.com.
Longtime podcast, listeners, 10 plus years at least.
Need some advice.
48-year-old male.
Wife is the same age,
married 15 years,
together 20.
Three adult children,
life is great.
Both of us have successful careers.
Kids are thriving.
She and I are best friends
and enjoy being with each other.
So what's wrong, you ask?
One word.
Farts.
Oh.
She had some serious gastrointestinal issues
of years back that required
some major surgeries.
Oh.
Luckily, she's healthy now.
But one of the lingering side effects is the girl farts.
A lot.
Now, I'm not one of those guys who thinks a man should never hear his woman fart.
Man, who doesn't laugh at an occasional rip here or there.
But this is way past occasional.
Oh, dang.
I'm talking five or six times an hour.
An hour?
Maybe more, depending on what she ate for lunch.
What makes it worse is that because it's such a common occurrence, there's zero attempt to be discreet.
she's not lifting her leg and blasting away.
Oh, she's just lifting her leg and blasting away.
Not even joking.
Oh, wow.
We're at, we're damn near at Pull My Finger and my mouth was open and everything
fart game levels.
I know she has little to no control over it, but I'm not, and I'm not holding it against
her, but it started to affect my attraction and intimacy.
Of course.
I'll be in bed, ready for the lay him down, smack him, yak him.
And all of a sudden, it sounded like we got bullfrogs under the bed.
Kills the mood.
She can be very sensitive about issues that involve our intimacy,
so I don't know how to bring it up.
I love my wife.
She's hot.
I'm still crazy attracted to her and want to keep it spicy.
But these days, the hottest thing going on,
our relationship comes from her ass every 20 minutes.
Oh, my God.
Yeah, that's the hottest thing going.
That hot air, baby.
Damn, five to be a big.
Yo.
Please help gurus.
sincerely, flatulence
killing the freakiness.
This is a hard one because, oh, man.
Just give you bro a minute.
Just give you a bro a second here.
And an occasional, and then a...
Go ahead. You got it out of your system yet?
Well, no, you got to let it linger.
You know, because you know,
I'm like, are you finished?
Do you have to let it linger?
She doesn't.
I got to tell you, I don't have the...
I don't...
Because it's a medical condition.
Nah, bro, no, no, no, no, no.
Bro said sometimes it's worse because of what she eats.
So.
No beans, no brussels sprouts.
Well, no, whatever it is, diet-wise, like, we got to have this combo.
I wouldn't be able to do it.
I ain't going to hold you.
I would not be able to do it.
I know.
All right, let me rephrase that.
I would not be able to not have the convo.
Oh.
And what about the other, would you be able to, when you're about
to lay him down smack.
No.
And I would have,
but that's the combo I would have.
Hey, check this out.
That ain't sexy.
And we got to figure this out,
which means that,
no,
she can because I think she can eat better.
Yeah,
maybe she can eat better.
Okay,
let's just say if she corrected it
by eating better,
but I just feel like,
this is more than that.
Any medicines that could help with that?
That's what I'm saying.
Can she?
No gas.
But there's no.
You're telling me that with people
who have surgeries,
this and stomach issues. They don't have prescription level gas X kind of stuff.
Yeah, like there has to be half something. Maybe she can't take it because hard on her
stomach. She may have some other issues. Write us back and let us know, but I'll be honest,
the only solution is to have the combo. You love her, she loves you. If you can't have a
convoy about her or you're worried about her sensitivity, she ain't worried about just
sensitivity. My nose is sensitive. And so it's my dear. So when you fart, he don't want
to put in no work. Griff, sent us a link to a medicine called Beano. Yeah, I've heard of
Yeah, I think she needs something more than Bino.
Prescriptions.
Before the first bite of complex carbohydrates, you got different flavors of it.
There has to be some sort of product that could help a little bit.
Have you guys explored all?
Like, does she know it's important enough?
Because it's one thing like-
She'll know because he said she's sensitive about their sex.
So has she tried it all, though?
Has she done all the work?
No, no, meaning for him to say, hey, this is messing up my sex life.
This is messing me up.
But that's not, she has to.
that's not a crazy thing.
She won't be surprised if he's like, hey, babe, you know, I support you and I'm going to be with you no matter what.
But if we're going to try to keep the sexy a little bit.
Let's just try to try to do things together.
Right, because there's also this.
If she changes her eating habits or improves her eating habits, however you want to frame it, they could also not smell as bad.
Are they smelling bad also or are they just loud?
He didn't, he didn't say smell.
He didn't mention smell, did he?
Because to me, when I hear five to six times an hour, Ebro, that's...
Well, not only that, but if she's an experience.
Fartor, this is the other thing that's really upset me.
As an experience farder myself.
Talk about experience now.
Yeah.
I know how to manage my sphincter in a way that can quell the noise.
I may not be able to beat the smell.
Well, the question is, do you bring the noise and bring the funk, or do you just bring one or the other?
Well, no, but in this case, sometimes, so I risk the funk.
But you quell the noise.
I don't bring the noise.
Right.
I risk the funk, and I'll wait and be like, oh.
Nobody got that one?
All right.
What about the plane game?
Are you a question?
You like the plane game?
You know when you're on the plane.
What's that?
Well, you know when you're on the plane.
Okay.
And it's loud on the plane.
And you're basically free.
But you're taking a risk.
Because if you bring the funk, then you're sitting there.
No, no, no.
You know, Ebro's in first class.
Just blowing.
What are you going to do?
Look at your neighbor to see if there's a reaction?
No, you do look for a reaction.
Oh, my God.
But my point is, is if you improve the eating habits,
you can improve the smell.
That's a real thing.
Oh, the smell thing for sure.
So even if she can, now, if she can manage your sphincter,
then she can manage the noise.
Right.
And now we're in a good space.
Because if you help the smell with the diet and then you can control the sounds.
She only even, all this lifting your leg and carrying on.
Take chill on that, bro.
But by the way, there are tricks you can pull, by the way, besides like lifting your leg.
Like if you're laying down, for example, she could just do a very subtle reach back,
grab the butt sheet, create a little more space.
Oh, yeah, creeping up.
Shhh.
Facts.
You know what I'm saying?
When you open up the pathways, there's less friction, less noise.
Well, work on all these things, man.
And hopefully some of it helps.
No, that's a crazy way to end the week, bro.
This one was crazy.
You know why?
Because it's Fart Friday.
I mean, Fatt Friday.
Goodbye.
Good.
Bye.
This is crazy.
Yeah.
Happy Fart Friday, everybody.
Oh, make sure you hype up.
Make sure you hype us up.
No, King Lou said it didn't matter.
Don't say it.
King Lou, you know, and his infinite wisdom said,
don't worry about it.
King Lou's in World Baseball Classic mode, man.
He's in his PR outfit.
Jordan Jersey-owned, his PR hat.
You know what?
He got time for this.
Matching kicks.
Yeah, but hit that like button,
subscribe all the good stuff.
And hype us up.
No, no, hype nothing.
Don't do nothing.
Do nothing to the hype button.
Happy Fart Friday, everyone.
Prove Lou right.
He needs this victory.
Don't call it a podcast.
