Welcome to Jenkins and Jones on the Volume Podcast Network. It is Thursday, October 12th, and we've got a great episode filled with nonsense and Tom Foolery. But, fruit rankings this week. I'm sorry is what it is. As always, Jenkins and Jones, hosted by my good
Starting point is 00:01:14 friends, straight from Action City, Legereto Jankens, aka John. What's that, Bubbles? And I don't think nobody calls it that, but that is a fire-ass name. A lot of shit be going down. A lot of shit be going down. That still is an interesting place. Dragonfly Jones, aka Tyler. Hey, everybody. How's it again? I'm Gardy B. aka Mike. And as I mentioned, it's a fun episode. and definitely, well, I guess I shouldn't tease next week's interview to the end of the show.
Starting point is 00:01:42 But let's start with Draymond Green. Steve Kerr teased us yesterday that he'd be making an announcement about Draymond Green at the end of the game, which I thought was very odd. That boy gave us a cliffhanger to let us know they wasn't going to do shit. Hey, God damn it, Steve. I stayed up late for that. I mean, I was staying up late anyway, but still.
Starting point is 00:02:00 He said, tune in, tune in after the game to find out the fate of Draymond Green. The fate of Draymond. But yeah, I mean, I wasn't surprised that they didn't do anything Because I felt like they had to not do anything You know what I mean? Because they said they were handling it You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:02:16 They said he'd been fine before we got the video If they had to like, you know, tax some more punishment on some more fines Some suspension on that That would like raise suspicion like, you know, What else are they sweeping under the rug over there? You know what I mean? So I didn't expect anything to happen to trade on my mind Except maybe getting traded, maybe
Starting point is 00:02:31 But I thought that would have been in the works Even without that video hitting the street. I think that trading is, who, that's that, that would have been a dozy. A doozy. A doozy indeed. Go ahead. But I just, go ahead. What are you saying?
Starting point is 00:02:44 I was going to say once Kurt said he was going to tell us after the game, I knew he wasn't going to get traded. He went to broke, you know, Draymond's on the market. Oh, for sure. For sure. You know what I mean? The coach isn't breaking your trade. Right.
Starting point is 00:02:54 Woj and Schatz would have fucked him up. Right. Exactly. Exactly. Exactly. So, but yeah, I mean, I thought it'd be a little bit more than what it was. You know what I mean, I understand what they said. prior they were going to do and then how that would have made them us think they're sweeping
Starting point is 00:03:08 shit on the rug but that video was egregious dog i i thought they do something more and i i mean john you know i hate to disagree with tyler but um hate it but we have for the third time in the history of jenkins and jones disagree tyler um but i think video often changes things you know and obviously a lot of people talked about, and it was a much more horrific situation, but a lot of people talked about, you know, the Ray Rice situation in the NFL, that it was like, people knew he did something horrible, and so there was ex-suspension, but seeing the video of something happening just changed it to where, you know, he basically is kicked out of the league at that point. And I didn't think, Draymond, you know, certainly obviously what he did was
Starting point is 00:03:56 not what Ray Rice did. But I did think the video coming out was going. to change things. I was surprised that they didn't do anything else. He did contextualize that decision a lot around Jordan Poole's feelings and thoughts and willingness to kind of put it behind them, which given the media storm, like I'm sure Jordan Poole is eager to have this shit behind him too. You know what I mean? So from that perspective, I think it makes sense that I'm sure they really did go to him and say, like, how fast, you know, if he's suspended, they're going to ask you about this shit. They're going to ask me about this shit every day until he's not suspended. If we say, hey, these guys made up, we're moving on, they're still going to ask us about it,
Starting point is 00:04:35 but it's not going to be the topic of the day the way that I think it would be if he was suspended. So I don't know. That was my thoughts on, but I was surprised. Well, I was under the assumption that they had seen the video, you know, when they came public and told us, you know, that, you know, he was going to be fine and no, whatever, whatever, whatever. But who knows? That's interesting. They seem genuinely blindsided.
Starting point is 00:04:58 Like the fury about the fact that the video was leaked seems to. to me, like they were really genuinely surprised that it came out. But maybe you're right that that was just like a pre-damage control rollout or some shit. I don't know. Yeah, I don't, I didn't think they had seen the, I mean, yeah, I don't, I didn't think they had seen the video. You know what I mean? I thought, I would think that they would see it like in the moment.
Starting point is 00:05:21 They didn't need to go to video. You know what I mean? I think the person that was taking the video since it put it out because we would want it. Not because, like, there were any discussions about the video prior. You know what I'm saying? It didn't look like camera phone video, though. It looked like straight up camera footage.
Starting point is 00:05:39 Like film. I'm saying, but I don't, yeah, but I don't know if, like, Steve Kerr or anybody that was in the moment will go, like, hey, you know, let's check the cameras. You know what I'm saying? No, no, no. I think they'd seen the video. I don't think they knew it was going to get out is what I'm saying. And I think the it getting out is what I expected to change things just because obviously it went from a, like, Oh, something weird happened at an NBA training camp to TMZ.
Starting point is 00:06:04 You know, like TMZ, we mentioned the people who don't follow basketball who are not on Twitter hitting us up about it. But TMZ to me is the dividing line. Like if it's on TMZ, it's a different kind of a story. It's not a sports story anymore. I mean, this is what, I mean, Dremont said he watched the video 15 times and it looked worse than what he thought. You feel me?
Starting point is 00:06:23 So like that makes me think that they didn't have, nobody was looking at the video. They were talking about the situation itself. You know what I mean? if the motherfucker that did this shit, maybe he got kicked out and shook and didn't have access to the facilities in the way that everybody else did. But I thought him saying that meant
Starting point is 00:06:39 that they didn't have, you know, they weren't looking at the video. They were talking about the situation. And then the video dropped because somebody just grabbed it like, oh, there's video, let me use this and get this bag off this shit. Fuck these niggas. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:06:53 You know, you feel me? I need my money. And I thought that's how they moved. But yeah, like, I just like, You were saying, like when they dropped the video, I was thinking you can't just give, you can't not do anything now. That's what I was thinking. And they didn't do anything.
Starting point is 00:07:08 So, yeah, I mean, they showed you. Tyler was right again. All right. Let's talk about Devante Adams. Receiver for the Raiders, one of the best receivers in the league, frustrated with his team. a very stupid-looking loss on Monday night football to the Chiefs. Walking off camera or walking off field, camera operator walks in front of him. Two-hand shoves a dude to the ground.
Starting point is 00:07:41 And Tyler, I know you're very proud of this cameraman for the smoothness of his, of the release of the extortion, basically. That man, that boy is season the day. Carpe d'em like a motherfucker. He filed the police report. He is reporting injuries. He's doing everything to build his civil case for when he takes this man to court. And I don't blame him.
Starting point is 00:08:04 I do not blame him. For one, you know, you can't be fucking pushing dude who's just trying to do his job. He wasn't even being a dickhead. He was being a cameraman. You know what I mean? So, yeah, I ain't mad at him at all, bro. Like, you know, Devante got about 30 of them M's, you know, he can come up about $250,000 for homie. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:08:18 You know, that ain't no big deal. He'd be a right. You know what I'm saying? That's a cheap push for him, you know what I mean? But no, for real, like, I just, bro, like, I hate that this is not me, that I hope this gets to him. You could get to the dude if you really wanted to apologize. That's what I'm thinking.
Starting point is 00:08:31 And also, like, I get how to dudes like, I don't give a fuck about that. Apology. Give me my bread. You know what I mean? Like, you push the shit out of me for no fucking reason. Shit ain't sweet, bro. I don't know you, nigger. I'm just recording you.
Starting point is 00:08:44 I'm going to get my cash. We ain't homies, you feel me? Just like, you push me. I'm going to get mine too. You got your issue. Let me get mine. I get it. that the dude pressed charges
Starting point is 00:08:53 and Devante Adams has now been charged with misdemeanor assault, which I'm sure is going to be dropped as it is settled out of court. It's just going to be civil. It's a civil issue, but that's just to make sure he gets his brain. You feel me? That's the only thing.
Starting point is 00:09:09 No, no, no, no. Yeah, I mean, he's not right. They're not going to bring the charges to court or something. It's just so that, like Tyler said, like you said, like you said, like you press charges so that when you go to court, it's like, oh, there's the legal documentation when you're suing the guy that I had a concussion. I think he said he had a whiplash, a concussion. He did push the shit out of that dude though. Like, homie ain't even sell the flop. Like, that was a legit tumble from a push that homie took. You know what I'm saying? With that heavy ass camera on too, bro. Like,
Starting point is 00:09:35 he was tripping. Like, and like, that's how hard he pushed him where this is a lot of shit he's probably adding on there. But it's plausible being how hard he was pushed. You feel I'm saying? Yeah, there is like, it's in my neck, my back, my neck and my back moment for show, you know what I mean? Like, there ain't no confusion, but it's plausible. Yeah, there is this thing that, like, I don't like American liability culture, which is this like, oh, someone fucked up, like, you know what I mean? And then, like, here it goes, like, we already know what's happening.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Because someone tweeted, and I do feel this to an extent, it is basically just extortion. You know what I mean? It's like, you got shoved and you're like, hey, you're way richer than me. So you've got to come up off X amount of money or I really will press charges. You know, whatever. And I'm not saying I wouldn't do the same thing in his place. I'm not saying I don't sympathize with the photographer, obviously. It is just like what we decided to build the country on.
Starting point is 00:10:35 It's this fucking system of liability that is also the reason they don't let kids play basketball on elementary school campuses after school anymore. You know what I mean? Like it is all the same snake eating its own tail of like a lawsuit culture to an extent. Bro, all I know is I would have tweeted out a smiley face with the money eyes, nigga. That would have been my next tweet after the Muppel because I saw me get pushed. All right. I understand liability culture is an issue and all of that.

This is from the Atlanta Journal Constitution. Shout out to Danny Robbins, which is a great investigative reporter name, Danny Robbins. Did you guys read about the ballad of... I want to make sure I get his name... His name correct.
Starting point is 00:13:02 Arthur Lee Coafield Jr., a 31-year-old Georgia inmate who successfully stole $11 million from a billionaire's Charles Schwab account by using a burner phone to call Charles Schwab successfully impersonate the man and wire $11 million into an account he had just created, then had his daughter used that money to buy an untraceable gold that is now sitting somewhere. He's been charged with wire fraud and all that, but he had already bought a house with the money, and the feds have said they do not know where most of those millions of dollars are. Got them. Well, I'm not going to be playing any violins for Charles Schwab billionaires here.
Starting point is 00:13:54 I mean, I guess this is a motherfucking Robin Hood ass episode. So I'm, I'm, hey, shouts to that man. Bro, he's a genius. Okay. And also, I think he'd have done multiple things with a brain like that and a name like that. He could have either been this nigger or he could have been the fucking president with Arthur Lee, was it, Coffield Jr? You know what I mean? That's a hell of a damn name, bro.
Starting point is 00:14:20 What's crazy to me, I mean, this is one of those rare stories where the story, the headline's crazy and the story's crazier. The deeper you get into the story, the crazier it is. He was in the special management unit in the Georgia Department of Corrections,
Starting point is 00:14:35 which is apparently a special maximum security facility that's designed to, like, keep people from getting hundreds. I mean, he said he had hundreds of burner phones. come through there. The feds clearly think that he was bribing correctionals officers to get the shit in there.
Starting point is 00:14:54 That house he bought cost $4.4 million. I was just paid for it in gold. That motherfucker got a tongue on him, bro. Dude, to do all of that? Bro, that's crazy. It's taken them two years to fully sift through all the shit that this dude did.
Starting point is 00:15:13 But they said, the feds said they suspect that he probably did this with several other billionaires as well. And they just don't have the evidence of it. That he talked into, oh, wait, wait, wait. He probably got their ass for money for money. He was calling their banks and impersonating the people, which first of all, let's consider how crazy this is. This man's name is Cofield Jr.
Starting point is 00:15:36 And he is in a Georgia maximum security facility impersonating an 80-year-old billionaire who spends his money financing films. Bro's, bro's white man voice must be top notch, bro. Is he black? He's black? Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:51 I thought he was white to be able to perth. Wow, that is a top. Like I said, he must have called it, man. The government couldn't utilize them for some covert shit. He could have been a voice actor or some shit. But he's a talented motherfucker who just made
Starting point is 00:16:03 some bad decisions, it looks like. To use it for evil. Yeah, he used his talents for evil. And he's stealing from billionaires. Actually, that's not evil. You know what I'm saying? But it's interesting. He's in a maximum security prison because of his brain.
Starting point is 00:16:19 Not because of his like physical actions that he did anybody. What's crazy is. He's just brilliant. So they have to watch him at all times. He was in jail from like the dumbest crime you could commit. As a 16 year old, he, he had an armed bank robbery where the die packs exploded on him like before he got to the car. So he's been like since 16?
Starting point is 00:16:41 Yes. So he has learned this wasn't even. real world knowledge that he implemented behind bars he learned how to do all this shit in prison it honestly seems like and look we are none of us in favor of prisons obviously but it seems like he went to jail and really flourished he started a gang called young and paid he goes by yapp lavish and that gang apparently was extensive enough that yeah he had a whole network of getting burner phones in he had several girlfriends outside of the jail one of them apparently he had an arrangement where she would FaceTime him while having sex so that he could watch her having sex.
Starting point is 00:17:20 Apparently someone had sex with her that he didn't want to have sex with her and he successfully ordered a hit on this dude. God damn. And got the and got the woman to tell him where the guy was so that he could put the hit out on him. He did all this shit while being in jail from when he was 16, bro. It's the crazy. I'm telling you, the deeper you get into the story, the more you're like, what though? Did you send a link to that story? No, because I wanted to get your guys
Starting point is 00:17:45 An honest opinion about the shit Okay, excuse me, the billionaire he stole from It was 94 years old And he successfully impersonated that man to his banker He ain't gonna need all that money, baby Share the wealth Incredible Anyway, shout out to Kobe
Starting point is 00:18:05 He could have been a blues I think this motherfucker could have been anything I think he's like he could have been a blues singer You know what I mean? Man, like he could have done it. He could have done anything. You know what I mean? With that name, Arthur Lee Colfield, he probably would have went crazy.
Starting point is 00:18:20 Been a country singer hit Nashville. Dog, I just, I need, send a story, gee. I want to read that. I will. I will send it to you. But I do want to emphasize, they don't know where most of this money is. They're going to be all. He's going to hit.
Starting point is 00:18:33 He might never get out, though. I mean, if they, did they, uh, convict him for that, that hit? He's being charged. This is how, this is what's crazy. is that like this story, he actually did this two years ago, and it's only now just getting out because they've just charged him with wire fraud. So it, like, but it took him two years to build the case
Starting point is 00:18:52 because of how carefully he covered his tracks and all this other shit. All right. Well, he learned from what got him in jail. He moved, he's moving smooth now. He's moving a lot smoother now. All right, can we discuss, John, you sent a couple days ago,
Starting point is 00:19:09 you sent this conversation that Rick Ross was having. about almond milk. And it's like one of my favorite videos you ever put in the group chat and I would like to discuss it. Bro, first off, I have no answers. What I do love about the video is at the end. Can you describe the video for people
Starting point is 00:19:30 who are not in the group chat? Well, okay, Rick Ross is scared of trying almond milk. He said he just finally, you know, he just tasted pears six years ago. So now he's a 2% milk. he just realized that was a thing, which that is not, that's fatty milk, right? It's not healthy, right?
Starting point is 00:19:48 No, 2% I think is like, uh, it's 2% and then it's skim. Skim is the whole. It's after whole. Okay, cool. So, all right, all right. And so like, I just got the 2%. And D.C. Khal is like, yo, try almond milk. Try almond milk.
Starting point is 00:20:02 And he's like, where's the milk coming from? Are they squeezing it from the peanuts, which is not an almond? He said, and this is the question. Is it from the almond of the walnut? Right, right, which is not, makes no sense. But also, at the end, DJ Kalin says, I don't have the answer and I usually have all the answers. He never has the answers.
Starting point is 00:20:26 I love conversations like this where people arguing, are arguing seriously over the dumbest shit and his absolute nonsense in every way possible. It's hilarious. But also, where the fuck does almond milk come from. Where's the milk of the almond? I don't know. I do drink almond milk, though. Are they
Starting point is 00:20:48 squeezing it out of the peanut? I think it's a mixture of almond of the walnut. It's probably a mixture of almond water other shit. You know what I mean? Soybean oil, I'm sure it's probably. Yeah, yeah, a bunch of shit, you know what I mean? But almond milk is like terrible for the environment, though. It doesn't
Starting point is 00:21:03 take like 40 gallons to make like one gallon of that shit or something. 40 gallons of water to make one gallon of that shit. I think it's one of those things like whenever people don't like something they talk about how much power it takes to make it, though. You know what I mean? Like, I think if you look at how much water it takes to grow an orange, it's probably a crazy number two or like, you know, they do that with cows.
Starting point is 00:21:22 Like it takes X amount of resources to raise a cow up. Also, the gas in cows is like hurting the ozone layer or some shit, yeah. But I know in California, Tyler, yeah, there's a, there's a whole lobby of people who wants us to kick almond farms out of California because it takes such an amount of water to grow the almonds. You know what I mean? but I don't drink almonds milk up my niggins milk or oat milk. And it's actually, it's actually for the, like when I'm eating cereal is the only time I'll eat milk,
Starting point is 00:21:53 but I do eat 2% cow milk when I'm doing that for the exact same reason that Rick Ross does. The first time people started telling me about almond milk and I didn't say anything to him because I don't want to sound like an idiot. But I was like, where is the milk coming from? I don't understand. Are they squeezing it out of the peanut? I trust the people. There sometimes are like,
Starting point is 00:22:19 I don't need to know the answers, right? I trust the people who are giving me this information and they do certain research. You know what I mean? And maybe that may lead me astray sometimes, but often, for the most part, it doesn't. You know what I mean? So I've never actually, I've thought it.
Starting point is 00:22:34 I've never asked. I was like, all right, I tasted it. It tasted good. I was cool with it. I know I'm lactose intolerant. and can't drink straight up milk. So that's my option. You feel me?
Starting point is 00:22:45 Skim milk was always trash to me anyway, so it wasn't hard kind of shaking the whole thing. You feel me? But, yeah, so I drink almond milk. I drink old milk, too. So the Googles say almonds require more water than any other dairy alternative, consuming 130 pints of water
Starting point is 00:23:01 to produce a single glass. God damn. That's wild. I mean, I know anyone who's an almond milk enthusiast doesn't give a fuck you know, it's about their abs and all that shit and not the environment. So I'm not even trying to guilt motherfuckers, but I do remember hearing that it's terrible for the environment.
Starting point is 00:23:18 Do you drink a milk substitute, Tyler? Nah, I drink milk. I don't even drink milk like that, but when I do, I just do make regular milk. Like, I'll eat, like, I have a box of cereal that will last me like a whole fucking six months. You know what I'm saying? I'll just eat it every now and then. But I'm not a everyday milk, you know, whatever, motherfucker. I say I drink almond milk, bro,
Starting point is 00:23:40 but I haven't probably drank milk all year. You know what I mean? But when I do drink milk, it's almond milk. You know what I'm saying? But like back when I was like eating cereal and shit all the time, for sure. You know what I mean? I was using that. But that was probably eight years ago.
Starting point is 00:23:55 You know, I remember the last time I really had cereal, honestly. I like keep it a secret that my kids drink milk. Like, are you embarrassed? They drink actual cow milk? In the suburbs, bro, it's like, you know, People think it's like child abuse or some shit. If you're not buying the $9 almond milk or whatever, but these motherfuckers eat a lot of cereal.
Starting point is 00:24:14 You know what I mean? And I do still have my grandparents mentality in my brain of like, they have to have a certain amount of red meat and milk if they're going to grow up big and strong. Amma milk isn't that expensive. I don't think it's, I don't think it's like that whole foods type. You know what I mean? Like you could go to Turner Jones and get it for the Loski. Like, yeah, I don't think it's that much more.
Starting point is 00:24:34 I don't, I wouldn't buy it if it was dumb and expensive either. You feel? me like, I'm fucking with that. All right. Okay. All right. Let's talk about while we're on the subject of food, can we discuss Babe Ruth's diet? That's always been such. All right. Babe Ruth's diet was, for breakfast, a pint of whiskey mixed with ginger ale,
Starting point is 00:24:59 then steak, four eggs, fried potatoes, and a pot of coffee. For an afternoon snack, it was four hot dogs, each with a bottle of. of cola, Coca-Cola, and then an early supper and a late supper, which were both the same, two Porterhouse steaks, two heads of lettuce drenched with blue cheese dressing, two platefuls of cottage-fried potatoes, and then two apple pies, and between the suppers, he would often have four more hot dogs and four more bottles of Coca-Cola. What's the weirdest part of this? This was his regular diet. This was not a big day. This was Tuesday, Wednesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
Starting point is 00:25:38 Bro. Eating four heads of lettuce a day is the weirdest part of this shit in me. I have never in my whole life eating a whole head of lettuce. I buy whole heads of lettuce all the time and I have never finished a whole head of lettuce ever in my life, bro. And this motherfucker was eating four of them a day. That's wild as hell. Drinched in blue cheese on top of that.
Starting point is 00:25:59 Like, God, it's not even lettuce anymore after that. It's just, it's just chewable fat. It's at that point, dog. That's all it is. What's wild to me is that he ate like that and played, he pitched as well, but he played outfield. Like those are the fucking athletes. What were the other motherfuckers who he was way better and more athletic than eating? If this is the god of back then eating hot dogs for fucking lunch, four of them, auto steaks, heads of lettuce with blue cheese.
Starting point is 00:26:30 You know what I mean? What were the bums eating? You know what I'm saying? Or the average baseball players eating back then. It was crazy. It's difficult to wrap my head around. I'm going to agree with Tyler that the lettuce is the weirdest part because when you're eating a good steak, I think I've had the thought like I wish I had the ability to do this for another hour. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:26:52 Like I wish I could eat. Like there's days I wish I could eat four Porterhouse steaks or whatever. But never in my life have I wanted to eat even one head of lettuce, much less several of them. This motherfucker was a fucking Clydesdale. Like you feed a fucking guy. A Clydesdale four heads of lettuce a day. Like, what the fuck? A Clydesdale eats some shit like apples.
Starting point is 00:27:16 You know what I'm saying? This motherfucker's eating them. Four heads of lettuce a day? God damn. What's funny is he probably thought that shit was healthy. Like, you know what motherfuckers said, like, I'm eating the salad, but they drenching in their fucking lettuce.
Starting point is 00:27:28 I'm just going to eat a whole, I mean, dribble in fucking dressing. I'm eat a whole head of lettuce. And lettuce has like the, the nutritional value of water. Like, it has no nutrients. You know? what I'm saying? That's how they was living back then.
Starting point is 00:27:43 He probably for sure, though, a lot of this shit was healthy because, like, the whole fucking starting your day with alcohol, the starting your day with alcohol, that was very early 20th century shit. You know what I'm saying? Like gin and tonic is a common cocktail, and that shit was supposed to be something that like pepped you up and made you alert and all that shit. But, yeah. Steak, too.
Starting point is 00:28:00 Steak was like, I mean, that's, I just mentioned it about my grandpa with the steak and milk. But, like, people from the fucking Otts and the Tens and the. the 20s, they thought steak was like the epitome of health food. Like the more steak you ate, yeah, but he definitely thought that. The thing that was craziest to me is how long do you think it would take you to eat all of the food that I just mentioned? That would be at least like eight hours of sitting down for eight days, bro.
Starting point is 00:28:26 Three fucking days to eat all that shit. The fuck, there's no way. You know, yeah. The foreheads and lettuce would take at least 18 hours. Like, what the fuck? Come on, man. Ain't no way. salute to Babe Ruth, I guess.
Starting point is 00:28:44 Honestly, I don't know how you wouldn't adjust. How did anyone live to 40 years old back then, bro? That's insane. 6-2-215, bro. He was, that motherfucker was a Clydesdell for back then. The average height was probably 5-5 back, you know what I mean? This motherfucker was a giant dog. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:29:05 I guess he didn't live. I mean, I guess he did die when he was fucking 53 years old. And that's old for back then? who fuck you mean what was the average lifespan probably was like 60 years old you know what and he's what smoked all the time drinking all that shit bro i know he was 112 a couple times and both times it was because there was a friendly judge here who let him pay off his like public drunkenness citations for cheap or something that he had gotten in when he was in la um all right let's talk about uh the house of dragons episode on sunday john did you watch it
Starting point is 00:29:41 Yep. I thought the scene of Vesaris dragging his fucking old ass to the throne was like one of the most moving things I have seen in a TV show or movie. I was like
Starting point is 00:29:55 wrapped. I was just like so moved by that shit. It was insane. Berseris won me over, man. At first, you know, I was like, oh, this motherfucker week as hell. But, you know, it's the old adage,
Starting point is 00:30:07 you can't be a good man and a good king. And he was for sure a good man. You know? So, you know, he finally checked out. I'm like, goddamn, it's about time. You know, you out here looking like Jerry Jones out this motherfucker. But he finally checked out. He was like a zombie, dog.
Starting point is 00:30:23 Yeah, he finally checked out. And like I said, you know, I grew to love him. And he's going to be missed because he tried to keep shit together. Like, I don't know if he didn't know that Renera's kids weren't, you know, Valerian or what have you. Or if he just decided to look past it. Like, it's their family regardless. But either way, like, you know. He knew.
Starting point is 00:30:41 I think he knew. Yeah. Yeah. He definitely knew. Because he wasn't stupid. He was a good man, but he wasn't stupid for sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Bro, when they took the fucking mask off and showed his face,
Starting point is 00:30:54 your eye isn't shut and missing. You have a fuck. It was Canaveras. You had a fucking cave. You know what I mean? There was nothing left that connected the eye. And I'm like, nigger, how are you still? existing. At that time point, you have like bacteria or whatever the funger, whatever the
Starting point is 00:31:16 fuck it is eating at your face. My nigger, it's time to go. And he dragged his ass down there for his daughter. You know what I mean? Who, bro? I was a fan of her initially. Seeing how much this man has loved her and taken up for her. You know what I mean? And I get like even how even how she, you know, got rid of her husband in the episode before that, she shows, she's very loving. loving her children, you know what I'm saying, loving to the man that, you know, that she was forced to marry basically. And I guess like in a kind way, you know,
Starting point is 00:31:51 having him fake dies so he could do his own thing and she could do hers as well. When they could have went to left, because this is, this is game of throes. It could have went left. But like, dog, it's just, like to see this man how much he loved his daughter and dragging his half face ass,
Starting point is 00:32:06 no muscle having ass down there and lifting himself up to the, and also the moment when his brother helped him out to the throne too was kind of was beautiful too but yeah that was that hell of an episode gee that was a hell of an episode bro Damon is another one
Starting point is 00:32:21 who won me over you know what I'm saying like with which is why I do not think he said that air for a day shit like I told y'all that that was my theory I do not because family means everything to him he did not say that shit fucking auto you know manipulated some shit to make that happen to get Allison as as Versaeris's queen
Starting point is 00:32:37 but yeah man when he chopped that motherfucker's head off for talking crazy Bro, did y'all peep That he cut his head off right at where he didn't touch his tongue Yeah Yeah, we said he can keep his tongue Yep Yeah
Starting point is 00:32:50 Right at the He gets his bottom jaw on his tongue was left Yeah They ain't even a bad motherfucker And I knew it was coming though I knew it was coming After he said Uh-huh
Starting point is 00:32:59 I said something for the happen You don't get away with that You might not get away with that In 2022 Let alone in that time In that fucking world You feel me So dog yeah
Starting point is 00:33:10 Yeah I knew something was happening. And I'm also loving how much I'm hating Aiman right now. Because we need a good villain. Allison. A eyepatch boy who toasted to them being strong, pulling that dickhead move. I was like, we finally got a villain at this motherfucker because Allison wasn't it. You know, Allison was annoying as fuck.
Starting point is 00:33:29 You know what I'm saying? But Aiman, this motherfucker looks pure evil. Like, I think he's going to be fun as out. Who's Allison? The Queen. The Queen. The Queen's helper. That motherfucker, he kind of, that one.
Starting point is 00:33:40 one of that nigga that killed. Yeah, yeah. He's a bitch. He's too much of a bitch to be the villain. He's too much of a bitch to be the villain. But a bitch will get you to fuck up out of here. Bitches, we get real niggers every day, bro.
Starting point is 00:33:51 You're talking about Laris? So, like, homie who killed this old family for her? Or you're talking about. No, no, no. Homie that, he's talking about Sir Cole. Homie that killed the father of Renaris's kids. Yeah, yeah, Laris.
Starting point is 00:34:04 So Sir Col. Oh, no, that is Laris. Yeah, yeah. Oh, okay. I thought you talked about the night. I thought you were talking about the night. No, no, fuck him. He barely be in the shit anymore
Starting point is 00:34:12 We see him maybe four minutes But what trip me out I mean we see him like four minutes episode But anyway like what trip me out was like How the kids are weak My nigger Did you see the dude that was their dad? The math ain't mathed
Starting point is 00:34:23 That was a fucking monster You know what I'm saying And you got And the we've You know God rest of all He was a good man The king
Starting point is 00:34:30 You feel I mean He was pussy compared To Reneerich his father The dude that she was sleeping with So how is old boy With this car a fucking, like he looks like he's 28 at 17 and those kids that had a gargantuan father
Starting point is 00:34:46 looked like they're eight years younger than that man or, you know, or 10 years younger than that man. I think they answered that question in this episode which is, I patch kid is just training. Like, he got embarrassed and so he's foot and a half taller. No, no, no, I hear you on. I hear you on that, for sure. But like, but they showed what they're both doing like in their households.
Starting point is 00:35:09 Those kids, the white hair kids are training. That's what they're doing because they know they got embarrassed. And their mom understands they're going to be in a civil war. And Reneira, maybe because she doesn't, I mean, she seems like she genuinely understands the situation, but she also maybe was overly optimistic she could step out of it, like with the way she made the toast. In her house, her kid is learning Valerian. Like, he's learning languages. He's learning the traditions.
Starting point is 00:35:34 You know what I mean? He's in his brain. Right. Yeah. But that was Allison. Like she was slapping that kid when he still had two eyes in the face. Like this is going to happen to you whether you wanted to or not. But you have to get ready for this shit.
Starting point is 00:35:46 The other one don't seem like he's training. He out here wilding. He's a, he's an asshole. You know what I'm saying? Like that's a, that dude is out here being silly, but he still is big and strong and slamming old boys, head up against the table.
Starting point is 00:35:58 Like, bro, you don't do shit but sit around and jerk off in windows. My nigga, how are you that nigga? But that's not true. But I think there's five hours a day in the fucking courtyard. We've never seen it. We've never seen. But that's what they showed in this episode, though. We saw the fuckers are down there.
Starting point is 00:36:13 We saw the nigga with one eye training, you feel me? We saw him. We ain't seen another one do shit but dumb shit. You know what I'm saying? That's all we've seen him do. But like, yeah, I get what you're saying, but I don't know, bro. Their father was a dog. And we saw him beat the shit out of the old boy.
Starting point is 00:36:30 You know what I'm saying? And it took three people to pull him up off that man. You feel what I'm saying? So I don't know. But I think it's, I think it's. interesting because I think her uncle husband and one eye
Starting point is 00:36:43 homie that might be a battle. I think that we saw some foreshadowing when he stepped in front of him a little bit. We might see them go at it at some point. And that might be interesting. Yeah. How spoiled are you by like what happened in the books, Tyler? Have you been able to avoid that? I've been avoiding
Starting point is 00:37:01 it. I don't even like tweeting about it because motherfuckers go like, well in the books the day. Right, right. Same. Same. Yeah. Yeah. This The podcast is the only public place I'm discussing it. It's just talking with Shar and my friends about it otherwise. One thing I'm curious about is I saw on Twitter that they're talking about a four-season story arc, where this season is the setup, the next two seasons are the Civil War, and the fourth season is the aftermath.
Starting point is 00:37:28 And I'm curious with, and this was always my question about Game of Thrones, and the first show did it so well, at the rate with which they kill people, are they going to be able to introduce enough new characters that you're not waiting two years for the payoff? Like John mentioned the fight, you know, there's probably coming between one eyed dude and Damon. Like, can they introduce enough siblings of, you know, like Corliss's brother or whatever?
Starting point is 00:37:52 To where like there's enough going on. You know what I mean? So far they have. But shit, this episode and last episode, by far my favorite two episodes, with all due respect to the dragons, it's cool to see the dragons. But this courtroom shit is by far my favorite part of this.
Starting point is 00:38:05 show. Yes, absolutely. But yeah, you know, it's, it's not some season eight shit. We have the source material fully fleshed out. So, you know, it's all about HBO executing it now. So, and, and if we're going off this season, I trust them again. I'm back in the trust in the love nest. Corliss's brother was basically just interviewed, just introduced to us to get his head chopped off. Right. I never thought about him. I don't even know. Was he in earlier episodes? I think he was in episodes like, yeah, but I don't. Yeah. Yeah. He, he, he, he, he, he, He gave the eulogy where he, and then he said that shit about Valerian blood runs thick and then looked over at the strong boys. In the episode before, right?
Starting point is 00:38:43 Yeah, yeah. And then Damon Chucker like, boy, I'm going to kill your ass one day. Right, right. Yeah, so. Yeah, so the episode before he was in a juice to get his head chopped off in this episode. So I think they're interviewed, they might introduce some more people just to get killed, but keep some of the main characters. I don't know, but we had that. I'm wondering how it's going to end.
Starting point is 00:39:05 being that we had that big mumble with Ned in episode 9 or 10 of the first season where they chopped his head off and we were all like it basically showed us what we were how far they're not for like bro we made us fall in love with that man and actually chopped his head off in the first season of the fucking series so I wonder that we'll have that moment in the next episode of the one before that we're like because I mean the king dying I thought he was going to die four episodes ago honestly bro you know what I mean like I'm surprised he made it to zombie level fucking 86 or whatever the fuck he was on
Starting point is 00:39:40 at this point. But yeah, so we'll see. I have to say the dude who played the king, I thought, acted his fucking ass off in that episode. Sharr showed me a picture of this dude, like a GQ picture. He just looks like a British guy, like a regular looking British guy. This is a little bit personal, but like my grandpa had a stroke and then was around for a while before he passed away. And I have never been emotionally affected by an.
Starting point is 00:40:04 actor's performance that, like, captured that period of time in the way I was by this. But the way he had his face in that, like, half grimace was just his new resting face. And just even the noises that he would make of, like, he's not all the way there, but what's there is in this enormous amount of pain. Like, he nailed the fucking shit out of that, bro. I mean, really, like, and that is, I don't know what, you're not watching film of that. Like, I don't know how you get into that spot as an actor, like, in your head. but I was just blown away by him.
Starting point is 00:40:36 It still blows me away that this is, like this is TV. We watch movies every, like, even like, like, the, uh, reservation, um, reservation, um, reservation dogs watching, yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Like, that feels like movie. Right. Where we, I feel like a movie more than the television. But yeah, I mean, yeah, he had,
Starting point is 00:40:55 everybody in here is phenomenal, though. There's nobody in here. I feel like, this motherfucker week as fuck. You know what I mean? Get him out of here. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:41:02 Everybody. body's doing their part. All right. That's all the time we got for Jenkins and Jones. We will be back on Monday. Hope the rest of your week and your weekend is good. And you definitely want to check out Monday's episode. We're going to be joined by Jonathan Abrams,
