Starting point is 00:00:00 This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human. Another podcast from some SNL, late-night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer, Streeter Seidel, help an a cappella band with their between songs banter.
Starting point is 00:00:23 Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and friends on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal, but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year.
Starting point is 00:00:52 Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, this is Robert from the Stuff to Blow Your Mind podcast. Joe and I are both lifelong Star Wars fans, so we're celebrating May the 4th with a brand new week of fun, thought-provoking Star Wars-related episodes. Join us as we tackle science and culture topics from a galaxy far, far away, such as the biology of tauntons and wampas on the ice planet hot, or the practicality and corporate business sense of the Sith ruling. of two. Listen to Stuff to Bo Your Mind on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever
Starting point is 00:01:33 you get your podcasts. What up, guys? Your boy's back. I got to be honest. I've been a little peeved, right? Especially with the news that one, award has been put off for Nate Diaz, and also the guy's trying to sue him. You know, you try to walk a fine line in regards to these things and not really go too far left or go too far right. So I'm speaking in general terms. Where in the world do you take a guy that's known for being dangerous and you choose that guy as the guy you have an altercation with, especially when a guy in Neide-Dez has a history
Starting point is 00:02:19 of defending himself, whether it be on the streets and an MMA fight in a boxing match, which he's going to have with Jake Paul down the line, or in any situation. Michael Bisbing told the story once about being in New Orleans. And this is the irony in this is that the Nadea situation happened in New Orleans. Michael Bisbing is on Bourbon Street with his family. Some thug hits him, punches him upside the head. Michael Bisbing is a wow boy. But that was Michael Bisbing back in the day.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Michael Bisbing today is a commentator. He's a father. He's a husband. He's all these things that have really almost tamed him. So when the guy hit him, Michael Bisbin can process, I've got my kids with me. I've got my wife with me. This isn't worth it in case it escalates to something bigger.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Neidias ain't there. Nate Diaz is not there yet. Nate Diaz doesn't say to him, himself, I can't do this right now due to the fact that it might escalate. Neadeez wants it to escalate. I almost sneeze. That's why you guys saw me make that weird face. He almost embraces de-escalating.
Starting point is 00:03:42 That's why I had to fight. You saw him throw the bottle or whatever he threw at the guy that kind of started this ruckus inside. All these creators, everybody's creating content. As I am creating content now, everybody's creating content. Everybody wants to be famous. But I don't know of being famous while challenging someone as dangerous is the way to get it done. Because what do you expect to happen?
Starting point is 00:04:10 I've seen so many great fighters become domesticated. The kids, the house, the wife. It all slows you down and you almost become domesticated. Nate ain't there yet. So when you pick a fight with Nate Diaz, he's going to fight you wherever you are. you pick a fight with game bread, Jorge Mazzvedal, he will fight you wherever you are.
Starting point is 00:04:29 There are a lot of guys in this game that will fight you. So when you play the game, you get some pretty shitty prizes. And so the kid gets choked out. Reality is, it could have been much worse. Nate choking him. I was almost doing him a favor
Starting point is 00:04:43 because you don't even feel that. You literally just go to sleep. It could have been much worse for that kid. So now I see a warrant for his arrest. My buddy Brian told me the kid had his hands up and somebody pushed him towards Nate.
Starting point is 00:04:59 But when you go, when you go at a man and you're in that posture where you're big and you're threatening, when can you expect that man to defend himself? I think that's the problem
Starting point is 00:05:10 with the world today. First, everybody's trying to capture moments to become famous. Two, there is no, there is no punishment for stepping out of line unless you step up. up out of line with the wrong person.
Starting point is 00:05:25 Now, am I saying what Nate did is right? I, at what point does he get to say, I got to put this dude in his place before something happens to me. You know, I don't know. I don't, I would never get into a fist fight
Starting point is 00:05:43 on the street, but I'm domesticated. I don't want to do that. Some guys aren't. So you mess with these types of people and you get choked out or you get hit or you get into a fight. It's just things like that happen with certain people. So to hear that all this now is leading to him being in all this trouble, to me it seems a bit unfair.
Starting point is 00:06:13 Now, I don't know who started it. I hear things happen inside the fight, outside the fight. Somebody pushed him all that. It seems a bit unfair. Because once again, at what point does a man get to defend himself? At what point does a man's career not allow for him to always have to take the high road? Nate ain't there. Nate is not at a place in his life right now where he's always going to turn away from the fight.
Starting point is 00:06:39 Hey, Michael Bisping, that wild boy is, I am. So many people are not willing to risk everything in order to get what a person deserves or give what a person deserves right now. Neide Diaz is that guy that's like I'll make this kid pay and now obviously it seems like he's going to have to deal with it. I don't know what comes to this but I can't sit here with 100% certainty
Starting point is 00:07:05 to say he's 100% in the wrong or 100% right because I can see both sides to the coin. Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged. It's the enhanced games Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all,
Starting point is 00:07:27 embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the IHard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what you're saying. Yep, that's me.

Starting point is 00:09:08 Including a recent episode with Mark Lamont Hill, waxing all about crack in the 80s. To be clear, 84 is big to me, not just because. of crack. I'm down to talk about crack all day, but just so y'all know. I mean, at this point, this is the second episode where we've discussed crack.
Starting point is 00:09:23 So I'm starting to see there's a through line. We also have AIDS on the table right now. Thank you finishing that sentence. Yes. I don't think there's a more important year for black people.
Starting point is 00:09:35 Really? Yeah. For me, it's one of the most important years for black people in American history. Listen to look back at it on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your

Starting point is 00:10:48 Use the promo code DCTV for $20 off of your first purchase. Nate Diaz gets himself into trouble here by fighting a guy that would seem to be threatening to him. But that's not where the news stops in terms of boxing and fighting. Nate's got a boxing fight down the line. Last week we saw Ryan Garcia take on Tank Davis. it was a massive, massive event, and it shows you at its best, boxing is second to none.
Starting point is 00:11:24 Francis Ngano has seen this from the outside. Francis Ngano now has that opportunity to pursue that. Just last week, I feel Francis got some great news in a time where it doesn't seem like Francis has been getting much great news because everything's moving a lot slower than he probably anticipated it being when he left the UFC. You saw in Tank Davis's corner
Starting point is 00:11:54 when he's about to get introduced, Floyd Mayweather, Floyd has taken a big role in Davis's career. And now he has gone on record to say not only does he want to work and help Francis in that regard, but he wants to help him in the boxing room. I want to work with Francis. I would like to help Francis.
Starting point is 00:12:17 I would like to promote Francis. To me, a win. One of the biggest wins that I feel, team in Ghana who has gotten since he decided that he was going to leave the UFC. The UFC has moved on. It has been ideal for John Jones to come and win the heavyweight championship because it still feels real.
Starting point is 00:12:39 Because if Cyril Gahn won, people could have pointed back to, well, Francis beat him. We never know what would have happened if Francis Faw Jones. This is great news for Team Ingonum. Get with Floyd Mayweather. Use your name power, your punching ability, your ferocity in that visual that you are that strikes fearing people and put it with the greatest boxer of all time.
Starting point is 00:13:06 Let him promote you. Let him try to use the same game plan that he has used to make what he has made and use it with you. Because guess what? Floyd Mayweather, for as great as he was, could never change the fact that he was 147 pound fighter. He's a welterweight. While he made a ton of money,
Starting point is 00:13:27 while he was the biggest darn boxing, he made a fraction of what he would have made if he was a heavyweight. Now, I'm not saying Francis can do what Floyd did or Francis can make what Floyd made. But boy, I feel like if there is anyone, that can help him capitalize on his name value, on his being recognizable, on his abilities, it's Floyd Money Mayweather.
Starting point is 00:13:52 So at a time where it seems like the news is slope of Team Francis, this is a win, my guy. Take it. Jump on it. Make a deal with him and come out and make some money. Because I, for one, am tired of not seeing Francis in Ghana who compete. I'm ready to see one of the scariest men I have ever seen inside of an octagon or in a combat arena, lace up some 10-ounce gloves, and knock somebody's head off. Good news for Team Francis.
Starting point is 00:14:26 Great weekend for boxing, too. It was just a good fight weekend overall. Hey, the world is turning and the sports world is as good as it gets right now. And I'm lucky to have the ability to sit out here and give my thoughts to you. guys Nate Diaz like I touched on is what it is
Starting point is 00:14:45 he messed with fighters sometimes you end up on the wrong end of it Francis and Ghana got some good news at a time when he needs it let's get Francis back in some sort of combat arena
Starting point is 00:14:55 till next time guys like subscribe check out the game time out and tell your friend to tell a friend that DC's got a YouTube channel and he's dropping some fire
