Starting point is 00:05:06 Just start fucking saying, welcome to Jenkins and Jones. Hey, dude, add that. Keep that in there. Let's it, show. Let's go. Let's go. Welcome to Jenkins and Jones on the Volume Podcast Network. It's Monday, January 17th, and we've got a bunch of shit to talk about today,
Starting point is 00:05:29 including Future Academy Award winner for Best picture the Velocopaster. I'm excited to preview this movie. But as always, Jenkins & Jones hosted by my good friends Legetro Jenkins, aka John. What's that, Bubba's? Dragonfly Jones, aka Tyler. Hey, everybody.
Starting point is 00:05:46 I'm Garvey, A.K.A. Mike. And John and I can attest the sweetest six words in the English language are a text from Tyler that read, the meat is in the air. The meat are coming.
Starting point is 00:06:02 Bro, when I saw that fucking FedEx package outside of my shit, I, like I was, that's the real Christmas for all niggas, you know what I mean? That's exactly what I said to me. That's exactly. I saw it rather that. I said, this feels like the actual Christmas. So it's, you know, by coastal friendship, as you learn, this is like a grown-up problem. It's like an interesting challenge of being friends on the internet and in a group chat.
Starting point is 00:06:28 But the way that Tyler reaches out and touches people, the way he shows. love is by cooking. And, you know, once a year, twice a year, he'll just let us know that there's a little package coming our way. Spicey so boing boings are in the mail. We got the motherfucking lamb chops, you know. Shout out the summer. We appreciate you.
Starting point is 00:06:50 You're a real one. It's been kind of a new year tradition for me to, you know, start the year off grilling out for the homies and shit. So, you know, I threw some motherfucking pork shoulder, of course, some goddamn sauce. some tenderloins, some wings, and the motherfucking lamb chops with the baby triceratops rub, you know, from the dinosaur cookoff that we had. You know? So I had to get those out to my boys.
Starting point is 00:07:14 Rather looked at me when I pulled the motherfuckers out, like, that shit smells so good. I mean, like, dog, like, she has never eaten red meat in her entire life. You know what I mean? She said, that would destroy my body. And she wanted to taste the shit. You know what I mean? Like, bro, I'm eating that motherfucker like I text you. I don't see that motherfucker.
Starting point is 00:07:32 Dick hard as hell. Hell excited, bro. I was horny eating these fucking lapchamps. You know what I'm saying? Incredible. Every single piece of meat that came out that shit, I don't care how sust this sounds, was so soft and delicious.
Starting point is 00:07:47 The meats were so delicious. I love the meats. Bro, bra, bra, bra, bra, bra, bra, bra, bra. Bro, it was, man, Tyler, you really special. I was thinking the whole time like, damn, they really set me up. I can't, I just learned how to barbecue last year. They had me trying to talk about barbecue with this motherfucker here on the podcast.
Starting point is 00:08:05 They threw me to the wolves, nigga. This shit is a profession with a capital P round of this motherfucker. That shit was perfect. That is literally like, I think only my dad makes barbecue even close to that. You know what I mean? How like, bro, you sent that through a box in the mail. I put it in a microwave and that shit still melted in my motherfucking mom. I could taste the smoke on it through FedEx, bro.
Starting point is 00:08:28 How does that shit make sense? I don't fuck type of shit. I inhaled the two spicy shiboying boings yesterday. Bro, on the way out. It was like a lung dart. Like a cartoon character eating corn on the cob, bro. Unreal. Only thing left is a little bit of that, the pork shoulder.
Starting point is 00:08:47 I kill all that shit in one sitting, bro. Actually, I saved. We're sitting around watching football today. I saved it that Vinnie and I are going to go crazy. I'm excited. But anyway, thank you, Tyler. For sure, man. No vegetables or nothing, bro.
Starting point is 00:09:02 Just straight meat. That's all I have for dinner, bro. You came man died. Like we were supposed to eat. You know what I mean? I also wanted to say the reason John thanked Summer is because Tyler's wife does not let him make the baby triceratops rub for other people because that is their special thing. And we really appreciate her sharing you with us. Yeah, I grill out all the time.
Starting point is 00:09:25 I grill out all the time for Summer's family, right? And one time I grilled some lamb and she was like, oh, my God, this is just. delicious. She was like, I don't want you sharing this with my family. She's like, I just want you to do this for me. You know what I'm saying? And I get it, right? Like, she's like, you know, I don't want you loving on my family the way you love on me.
Starting point is 00:09:42 And I get that. I respect that. So, you know, I got her permission to share it with y'all. She thinks very highly of y'all as you can see. Can we read the text? Because y'all, I am really, go ahead and read it, Tyler. I am really a fan of y'all. Like, I'm like, you know, Beyonce and JCP, damn.
Starting point is 00:09:58 This is my king and queen right here. We stand. We stand. I'm like, yo, this is, this is love. This is,
Starting point is 00:10:05 you know, this is marriage. You know what I mean? Yeah, let me pull that shit up. You, you, you,
Starting point is 00:10:10 you, uh, you screen captain and put it, put it, put it, sent it to the, uh, the group chat. That shit was,
Starting point is 00:10:14 I'm like, I'm reading this shit cheesy. Look at them. Look at them being them. You know? All right. So, so this was Tuesday,
Starting point is 00:10:21 December 21st, 12. 9 p.m. I said this too while she was at work. I said, good morning. after careful consideration and much thought, I have decided to share the lamb that I exclusively cook for you with Mike and John.
Starting point is 00:10:33 I kindly ask that you respect my family's privacy at this time. Thank you. All right. And then she responds, baby, please don't do this to us. Please, no, stop, don't. And I texted back, we'll get through this, and we'll only make us stronger. She texted, do you feel an ounce of guilt? And I texted, uh, I think I'm supposed to say yes here.
Starting point is 00:10:56 So yes. We have fun, man. We like each other, bro. I can tell. I can tell and it's so beautiful. I love that for you, my dude. I appreciate it. There's a, it's a special certainty and comfort you get in life when you marry the right person.
Starting point is 00:11:13 I just say that. For sure. For sure. It's just a different, different experience. And I would add, by the way, that Jackson could have had. I would have shared some of this with him, but he did not want to bake me a sourdough brand. So he's missing out on the point show. hold the phone.
Starting point is 00:11:28 I said maybe. Hold the phone. You said maybe. Maybe ain't enough. I said maybe. Come on. In 2022, maybe to know. We know what a maybe is.
Starting point is 00:11:37 Well, the meat will be gone, bro. So yeah, next time. All right. For sure. Okay. Let's talk about the news just broke right before we started recording. KD left last night's game with what looked like a knee injury. And unfortunately, the news confirmed.
Starting point is 00:11:55 day, a sprain MCL out four to six weeks. Fuck. I don't know what else to say about it, but fuck. They still ain't turned the injuries off yet, nigga? Like, dog, you know what I mean? Like, I just feel like, I feel like Kyrie just coming back. And with the Lakers not being, with Lakers stinking it up, basically, they stink. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:12:20 I'll become like a Nets and a Grizzlies fan. I love watching them play. You know what I mean? And I was hoping the Nets have a chance to win the chip. And I think they still will, but it won't be fun. And they just came off a great win whooping the fucking, the bulls
Starting point is 00:12:33 were the top of the fucking pack right now in the east by like 40. You know what I'm saying? And then this happened. So, ah, it sucks, like you were saying, Tyler. You know, I don't know what your boy, Steve Nash is going to do without KD because, you know, he can't coach himself
Starting point is 00:12:51 out of a fucking paper bag, my boy. You know what I mean? Like that man. Let Katie do Katie do KD things. What are you going to do now that KD can't play? Yeah, yeah. It's, you know, shit, just last week, you know, this was a contact injury. Someone fell on KD's shit.
Starting point is 00:13:06 But just last week, you know, a reporter brought up to KD like, yo, you're playing a lot of minutes. So you're okay with that. And of course, KD's a fucking hooper. Of course he's going to say, I love that shit. I would play 48 minutes if I could. I want to die out there. That's what I mean. I think that's exactly what he said, which is true.
Starting point is 00:13:18 Yeah. Yeah. So it's like, you know, a good coach knows how to win the minutes without his star players, star players. and Steve Nash is like, what if there are no minutes without my star player, right? Like, that's how he kind of approaches this shit. So, you know, we'll see, we'll see.
Starting point is 00:13:33 I hope when he comes back from this, you know, Nash is a little lighter on the fucking pedal with the minutes with Katie. The human brain is endlessly adaptable and as such it can form itself into any circumstances you need. If you grow up and someone just hands you a crutch when you're two years old,
Starting point is 00:13:52 your brain will just learn to walk with a crutch. And Steve Nash is like a two-year-old that is instead of learning to operate without the security blanket is like, what if I made the entire world out of my security blanket? He's lying. He's carrying that motherfucker to bed with him. You know what I mean? Like all through the day, him and Katie holding hands. He needs Katie everywhere now. So what do you do without Katie?
Starting point is 00:14:16 What if I turn the security blanket into a three-piece suit and wear it to work? Like, right. All right, let's talk about the latest round of All-Star voting is out. We could go through front court and guards what one through ten we have for the East and West. But I'll start with the starters right now in the West would be Steph, Jha, Braun, Andrew Wiggins, and Yokic. In the east, it would be Trey, Demar, K.D., Yannis, and M. Bid. First of all, the picture of Wiggins that ESPN picked was the fucking
Starting point is 00:14:59 funniest shit ever. That was the most I-Aid, man. I'm just happy to be here, dog. I don't know how I got here either. Right. I'm not going to be the boring guy who takes the All-Star Game 2 serious. Of course, you know, the fans vote for the starters
Starting point is 00:15:13 and give the fans what they want. But do any fans besides Golden State fans really want Wiggins in that starter light up? You know? I mean, he's had a great fucking season. think it's interesting that he is getting the type of love that he, I don't want to say deserves to be a starter, but is getting this level of love. I thought, you know, people wouldn't vote for him in the way they have. So, yeah, I was wondering if he even even make it,
Starting point is 00:15:36 you know what I'm saying? But look at who's behind him in the voting in the front court and tell me who anyone would put over him. Paul George, fair, but hurt. Anthony Davis is at five in the front court, which tells you a lot about what the front court looks like in the fucking West right now. Draymond is number six and Mello's number seven. Cat is number eight, which is tough. I mean, he's said he should be much higher than that. But he's probably the person you'd really look at.
Starting point is 00:16:05 But it's just, as we discussed, Bron goes west. Everyone else goes east, bro. I probably, I mean, shit, they got two fucking point guards in the start line up with John stuff. I'd probably go Levine, you know what I'm saying, for a Wiggin's spot there. And, you know, put another wing out there. But, you know, like I said, I really don't give a shit. Levin's in the East now.
Starting point is 00:16:23 Levees in the East now. Oh, yeah, that's right. What the fuck am I talking about? So, yeah. You talk about it some Sunday morning shit is what you're talking about. Yeah. But I think what's interesting, like people talk about, like, Yokic is hated and all this shit. Yokic is, like, fifth in all-star voting or disrespected.
Starting point is 00:16:43 Yeah. Fifth and all-star voting behind Brian, who I think is fourth. You know what I mean? Or something like that, which is, that's, is this the first year you guys? Steph and Braun are one two. It's, it's, no, it's,
Starting point is 00:16:55 one two in the West. I'm talking about. No, no, no. Overall total votes, looking at the raw vote count, it's Steph with 4.4 million. Braun has 4.3 million.
Starting point is 00:17:03 KD. has 4 million flat. And then, and then Yokic after that, Yokic is fourth. Oh, maybe I'm looking at. I saw Janus and Katie
Starting point is 00:17:12 had more votes than Bronn. Janus, Katie, and Steph in the one that I looked at. But, but yeah, that's, but anyway,
Starting point is 00:17:21 Yokich is not, disrespect it, bro. Everybody knows this motherfucker can ball. You know, I don't know why people are saying shit like that, bro. People fuck with Yokic. You know what I'm always impressed by when you get to the All-Star voting? Because when I remember when I was young
Starting point is 00:17:36 and I was first sort of understanding what the concept of fan voting was, I kind of thought it was stupid because I was like, well, who would bother voting for Michael Jordan? Like, I'm a Michael Jordan fan, but it's like, well, obviously Michael Jordan. You know what I mean? It's just like someone else is going to do that. I don't need to do it. And still four million people or one million people four times or one person four million times took the time out to say, I want to make sure people know that LeBron James and Steph Curry are good basketball players.
Starting point is 00:18:07 I think you just vote by position, right? So you like, I mean, when you go to, I think the website, I know I know there's Twitter voting and stuff like that, but you just, I mean, I'm not looking at that position of putting anybody over Bron and Steph. You know what I mean? in the voting. So I mean, it kind of makes it. All right. That's the all-star voting. I love seeing John there, though.
Starting point is 00:18:30 I love seeing John there. I love seeing him getting the love that he deserves. You know, people say he the best point guard in the league at this very moment. Hey, I'm not here to argue that. I'm not here to argue that. I mean, it's slumping like he is. You know, I wouldn't argue that. Of course, he's not the best point guard in the league, period.
Starting point is 00:18:46 Yeah, we ain't saying that. But we're saying at the moment, you know what I'm saying? Who's doing what Jaws doing from that fucking position? Nobody. Our guy, Nate Jones made the comment that Jha is a couple hundred thousand votes ahead of Luca. We discussed on the show. I think we all know that because of Lucas Hugh, the NBA would love for him to be one of the top players, which obviously he's an incredible player.
Starting point is 00:19:14 But I thought that was interesting because Jha, you certainly, I don't feel like, has had the same kind of marketing point. push behind him until I think the last couple weeks it's been very obvious that it's like people love this dude you need to find a way to get him out in front of everything I think it might be Luca fatigue because remember every fucking thing for like the last few years Luca Luca Luca Luca Luca Luca because the numbers were so good now it's like bro you know what I'm saying I would never get to the point where he hasn't won in the playoffs with this start thinking he's very early he's coming back fat and surly at the beginning of the season he's talking that shit like who the fuck are you
Starting point is 00:19:50 which I actually love. You know what I'm saying? Because who the fuck is, you know, is it, Franz Wagner or whatever? But, yeah, like, so I think it may be a little bit of Luca fatigue, but also I really just think it's just Jive's that fucking nigger, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:20:04 Yeah, it's, I think it's for sure some Luca fatigue because the last two pre-season, he was the MVP favorite, and he hasn't been in either of these races. You know what I mean? None. So, yeah, it's for sure some Luca fatigue. We've all had bad days at work.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Happens to the best of us. us. Some of us have had a bad month, a bad six months. In Russell Westbrook's case, a bad, you know, three, four months. At least we did not have Magic Johnson tweeting about us when we had a bad fucking day at work. Magic tweeted last night after the Lakers lost to the Nuggets, after being blown out by the Nuggets, 133 to 96, we as at Lakers fans can accept being outplayed, but we deserve more than a lack of effort and no sense of urgency. Owner, Jeannie Bus, you deserve better. That was a shot at Rob.
Starting point is 00:20:59 I don't give a fuck what anyone says. You don't bring the owner up, you know what I'm saying? To say you deserve better when you're talking about players. You bring the owner up and say you deserve better when you're talking about, you know, the suits in that front office, bro. He was shooting at Rob on that shit. I promise you, man. I mean, they did put a bad,
Starting point is 00:21:16 product together. You know what I'm saying? Rob did. I mean, I think, I think Brian was probably pushing for Westbrook on some let's get the homie on the team. If I'm keeping it a stack, I would hate, I hate to say that, but that's probably GM Brian's fault. But regardless, you know what I'm saying, you know, Rob had to sign that shit off. So I think that's, that's some classic, like, R&B dirty Mac in that, that magic hit. He's like, he's like, girl, I just don't get it. Do you enjoy being hurt? Like, that's a Mario shit. That's a Joe shit, right? So Mario let me love you shit, bro. Let me love you.
Starting point is 00:21:48 What a fuck, nigga. Out there with braids dancing and fucking all shoulders talking about let me love you. Bitch, let me slap the fire out so weak ass, bitch. I wish a dick to pull up like that, they're waiting to beat your ass in these streets. Bitch-ass, dick.
Starting point is 00:22:05 Sheesh. Let me love. We really, we really let these things get, you know what I'm saying? There was so much dirty macking going on back then. Yes. You know what I mean? That was almost.
Starting point is 00:22:16 Not a back then. At least there weren't DMs back then, bro. Right. That was almost the craze, though. Like, you know, let's what, you know, we wanted the Dirty Macon song. You know what I mean? It seemed like R&B was living off a Dirty Macon. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:22:28 Dirty Macon. And apologizing when you fucked up. Like, that was every R&B song in the 90s, bro. Donnell Jones made a living off of that shit. Like, you know, like off of that apologizing shit. But that dirty Mac and shit, like, damn, we really. But that was R&B in the 90s and his Instagram in the 2020s. We all know women that are good,
Starting point is 00:22:46 or professionally good looking on Instagram and if they post something about anything went wrong with their with their see no doubt but but all someone has to do is say you know like dinner was cold today or something
Starting point is 00:23:00 they'll think they throw up screenshots of a thousand people being like I would never let the dinner get cold right you can take a picture in a motherfucking you know what I mean hell no dude that's yeah But I mean, I just think that's wild back then how we grew up.
Starting point is 00:23:21 That shit was cool. You know what I mean? I don't know. Now it's fucked up. Competitive markets are competitive markets, bro. Shit is what it is. Have y'all ever been dirty Matt? Not successfully.
Starting point is 00:23:37 I don't think. You know? Right, right, right. I have had, you know, girls out of dealing with come back to me and tell me motherfuckers was hating, but never, no one ever, like, snatched my dick from me. I would fuck up my own good thing. Thank you very much. I don't need your help here.
Starting point is 00:23:52 I was too good at that. I told you I've been really good and ruining shit my entire life. I didn't need a nigga too. Tyler's waving off the screen calling for the ISO. Let me destroy this. Let me get this with my commitment issue.
Starting point is 00:24:10 I don't need your help here. Catch you on the rebound, you know what I mean? Mouse in the house. No, but yeah, like, I, I, I've been attempted, but it hasn't been, you know, I guess like you said, like you said, like you don't know if it was successful or not, but. Many have tried at this address.
Starting point is 00:24:33 None have succeeded. Shara and I've been together since we're 18. I was with someone who is both better looking and more intelligent than me, uh, who, you know, I mean,
Starting point is 00:24:43 obviously people tried, but I think so it went. I was like, I know you a fuck nigger for this shit too. You know what I mean? Like you can't look at somebody dirty mac and and actually think they're solid. I think the, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:24:57 It's a couple, yeah. Anyway, we don't need to get into all that on the park. Right. But it's a couple. Mike's going to get mad. He's about to turn red on this motherfucker. He's like, I still want to beat that ass. Still want to put these Italian balls on that nip.
Starting point is 00:25:13 Them shoulders starting to twitching this shit. So going back to Magic's tweet. I tell you. Pauls. These Italian pause. Going back to Magic's tweet, it is, so Tyler said he thinks it's a criticism of Polinka. I thought it might have been a criticism of Braun based on what John said.
Starting point is 00:25:36 And I did see that Braun did not come out for a postgame comment last night after this tweet went out. Russ did. And I, you know, it's kind of getting fed to the wolves over his comment. I don't know what you could say to that and not get fed to the wolves. but his comment was Magic Johnson possibly the greatest Laker ever one of the greatest basketball players in history
Starting point is 00:26:00 he said Magic Johnson is quote entitled to his opinion You know that's the nicest thing Russ could say because you know Russ would have told somebody else to shut the fuck up like if that was motherfucker like if that was Kurt Rabin's talking out records Russ would have let that shit fly you know Russ is trying to be as respectful as he can
Starting point is 00:26:17 because it's magic I'm gonna be honest with you though Russ can't let it fly like he used to he can't you know what i mean in this situation where he's in and like what we're looking at the product that we see on the court if kurt rambis would have said that russ might have had to say it that way too because you can't really talk too much shit when you know the product that we're seeing is you know they're paying what 44 42 million for is looking the way it is i mean he's been not as many turnovers as of late which is good it's making more money than brine
Starting point is 00:26:47 you said what he's making more money than brine more money than brine more money than brine You know what I mean? His other comment was that magic's not around the team on a daily basis to see what's really going on. I hate when people say this. I hate it in high school. I hate it in college. I hate it in the pros. It's about the games.
Starting point is 00:27:04 Right. It's not about what anyway. We do see the games. We see y'all being trash on the world stage. What the fuck we need to see the behind and see shit for? I don't need a documentary about what happened in the lead-up to the Nuggets blow out. What do you think is happening in the nuts? And the nuts.
Starting point is 00:27:23 In the nuts. Golly is early. What is happening in the fucking nets. You know what I'm saying? Locker room with fucking Kyrie and all that shit. And they still find a ways to make... Bro, it's happening everywhere. You know what?
Starting point is 00:27:39 I don't... You know what's going on the locker room? It's in the... Bro, it's a bunch of grown men in a locker room that think differently. There's going to be shit going on, bro. You know what I mean? Like, it's just, you know, you're not good enough
Starting point is 00:27:48 to play and win games against other people. That's all it is, bro. Y'all are not good, gee. You know, I mean, dude, and I think the, the, the, the, uh, Nuggets, all they have is Jokic. You feel what I'm saying? Like, and, and they, well, they beat them by like 30 points, blew their ass out.
Starting point is 00:28:05 They couldn't stop shit. It's, it's, bro, Nick, like, there's no, there's no, there's no reason to get whooped by a team. That's, that's, that's, what the, the fifth team in the fucking West right now. We're seven. Down by 30 after three quarters. Down by 30 to the fifth team in the, come on, gee. And this was the third,
Starting point is 00:28:21 third straight loss is it not? NBA, Alzheimer's not the only ones checking in with feedback for Russ. TikTok user Birdwood Day. Also, screen recorded a freestyle that
Starting point is 00:28:35 he left in Russ's Instagram DMs. Let's take a list. You know, Russ, I'm not too big of a fan in rapper Tiger, but I loved his verse on Loyal. He was like, at 500. Bron, at Center. Lakers can't win because they ain't got no defenders,
Starting point is 00:28:49 no defense. Sad, y'all can't fucking win a guy. game. We got you, but man, I really want it dame. LBJ, he in the post with it. 35 points doing the most with it. Okay, let's talk about these shots and why you taking them all these bricks, man. You can fucking build
Starting point is 00:29:03 a states with them. What's up with your shot? Man, they all backboard, so bold, yeah, can't switch no net. You selling for a check. You ain't too good when you shoot that ball. I prefer you didn't shoot at all. No. Come on, come on, rush. Show me some. Two for 12, ain't nothing. If wrong was open.
Starting point is 00:29:19 Four corner three, I bet a dollar that you throw it to the nosebleeds. Come on, come on, rush. Show me something. Two for 12 ain't nothing. We just spend our bread on you. And it's all for enough. Like, all I'm asking is for you to just play better, dog.
Starting point is 00:29:35 Like, come on, son. Please, like this. This shit ain't cool, man. Just please play better. That was a catchy little ditty. I ain't going to lie to you. Hey, bro. He had that pleading part at the end, too.
Starting point is 00:29:44 You know what I mean? Hey, put that motherfucker on Apple. I'll play it. That shit, bro. $2.40. know. Hard time, hard time for the, for the Rustan. And all facts. All facts. You know what I'm saying? Like two for 12 ain't nothing. We've seen the stat line. There's been some two for 12s on that motherfucker. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:30:07 It's been more than one. When your fucking stat line looks like a pizza deal, you know. Little Caesar's too. You ain't even getting pizza on, dick. It's a little Caesar's pizza deal, nigga. Two for 12. God damn. You know what I'm saying? What's wild to me, though, is like if somebody,
Starting point is 00:30:30 I would rather just be called a dickhead. You know what I'm saying? Just call me. You make the song, it's meaner, but it's not disrespectful and it's funny. Dog, that's harder to deal with to me.
Starting point is 00:30:43 You know what I mean? Because nobody's going to be like, yeah, he's wrong for saying the dickhead. Now, I'm over here laughing at your ass, you know, being called a bum rather than like siding with you. I feel bad for Westbrook, dog. How do you deal with that?
Starting point is 00:30:57 You know what I'm saying? What do you do at this point? It's a special torture to have what he's... 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 00:31:16 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 which I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:31:37 Yep, that's me, Cliver Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football, or my career in sports media. Well, somewhere along the way, this platform became bigger than I ever imagined. And now I'm bringing all of that excitement to my brand new podcast, The Clifford Show. This is a place for raw,
Starting point is 00:31:56 unfiltered conversations with some of your favorite athletes, creators, and voices that not only deserve to be heard, but celebrated.

Starting point is 00:32:52 Each episode, we pick it here, unpack what went down, and try to make sense of how we survived it. 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, Mark, this is the second episode where we've discussed crack. So I'm starting to see that there's a through line.
Starting point is 00:33:14 We also have AIDS on the table right now. Thank you for finishing that sentence. I don't think there's a more important year for black people. Really? Yeah.

I'm talking. Trip Fontaine, Ryan Clark. Sometimes when we're in the pursuit of the thing, we get so wrapped up in the chase that we don't realize that we are in possession of the thing.
Starting point is 00:34:00 And we're still chasing it. And we don't know when we've done enough. Because people scoreboard watch. Life becomes about wins and losses. Steve Burns, Dustin Ross, because you find it important to be a good person while you hear on earth? Or are you a good person because you're afraid? Because that's two different
Starting point is 00:34:16 intentions, bro. Absolutely. And that's two different levels of trust. I want you to just really be a good person.

Starting point is 00:34:36 Going through in his career right now happen on one of two things. For a team like the Lakers, it has a gazillion fans that are creative enough to screen record their DM freestyles to you about that went that he went kind of crazy on or to be on a team with brawn where all of basketball media and all basketball fans are paying attention to you because you're automatically part of the story line he is doing both of those things at once that is falling apart for him on the biggest stage in both ways like it's just you can see it wearing on him it suck i hate it i was a crib at the crib like bro i want i would hit the man like
Starting point is 00:35:14 oh yo just call me a dickhead So just be mean to me, like outright. Don't, like, don't, like, write a song about me. Like, you know what I'm saying? Man sat down with a pin in a pad. Right. And caught the beat. And caught the, right, right.
Starting point is 00:35:28 Roll that motherfucker. You know what I'm saying? Like, he rode the hell out of that beat, Jim. Like, Russ over here and forget that he get clowning and bobbing his head. Like, this kind of go crazy. And it, oh, shit, you know what I mean? It is the most Laker fan shit ever. I say that.
Starting point is 00:35:45 You know what I mean? in New York, someone calls into talk radio or Philly, someone calls into talk radio to yell about you. In L.A., someone's going to find a way to try and self-promote off talking shit about you. And, you know, more power to them. That's very creative. Very creative to record the DM.
Starting point is 00:36:00 Magic lied of it, too, saying that, you know, we okay with losing. You know what I'm saying? Like, nah, ain't no. Lakers ain't okay. Not okay with losing. Even if they tried their hardest and got their ass, nobody gives a fuck that, you know, Lakers won't wins. You know what I mean? And this is like the place,
Starting point is 00:36:15 ain't the place to be having a season like he's having right now. It's the fact that it's at the crib. You know what I mean?

Let's talk about an even more awkward and listless gathering of celebrities than the Lakers. We were among the people who were really blown away by the video clip of Yay, Julia Fox, Madonna, Antonio Brown, and fucking Floyd. I don't want to call it partying, but hanging out in the same room. Tyler, who was the first thing that popped into your head when you saw that video?
Starting point is 00:40:10 clip. That famous people look boring as fuck. You can't, famous people only look fun when they're around non-famous people because they know how to move
Starting point is 00:40:19 in those situations when everyone is like enamored with them. When you put a bunch of famous motherfuckers together, you're going to get boring-ass shit like that. That shit looked like hell.
Starting point is 00:40:27 Like Metro Adler, one of my favorite tweeters. She tweeted everyone in this video needs to go home to their families. Yes. And that was the most perfect analysis I've seen of that shit. not a laugh was had in that room that not a real one you know i mean like that should look i'd
Starting point is 00:40:47 never seen fame looks so i mean fame seems trash in general but it looked way more trashed than there and these aren't just like fame always looks trashed fame look boring there you know right right right you know exactly but these aren't just normal famous people like you know what i'm saying these are like the famous amongst famous people. And it just, you know, like, and it looked boring as fuck, bro. Like, zero out of,
Starting point is 00:41:15 zero out of ten. Zero out of one, no part of that. Not even, not even two for 12, nigga. The only person is, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:41:23 Over. You feel, me fuck that shit. The only person to look like they were having fun was Madonna, um, which by Madonna is probably always having fun. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:41:32 Yeah. Madonna would be the same person at home by her. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, and nobody, you know. Feeling up on her cat, you know what I mean? Like, just whatever. All right, Mike. Not what I meant.
Starting point is 00:41:50 Reel it in, Bubba. This is a family pod. Not what I meant. Feeling up with her cat. Let's talk about a film that, had a looks much more interesting to us which is the velocopaster i can't wait to watch this today i cannot fucking wait we're doing normally we do book club movie club all that type of stuff we'd normally do that during the off season but sharr sent me this last night that this was a movie
Starting point is 00:42:27 someone made for 35 000 dollars it's a movie about a pastor who has the who i think goes to china and gains the ability to turn into a velocity a raptor to fight crime. Did you see this still from the movie? Yes. With that fucking mighty morphine parloranger looking ass, sign me up for this shit. I cannot wait for this bullshit.
Starting point is 00:42:51 I know it's going to be good and terrible. So we're going to watch this today. We'll actually talk about the movie on the next podcast. But John, what were you about to say? Four and a half stars. And I don't think just because it's good. I think it's because it does exactly what it's supposed to do. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:43:08 We're not signing up for Goodwood Velas a pastor. You know what I mean? Like we're signing up for fun and I think it's going to be fun as fuck, bro. It got four and a half stars because it gets the people going. Right. That's what it's supposed to do. Several people, after I tweeted that out, responded that people are being haters because it's a five-star movie. You know, for sure, there was some serious film critics bringing that fucking rating down.
Starting point is 00:43:32 You know, everyone who watched it, who signed up for exactly what they do it was, gave that bitch five stars. You know that. sure. And there's some people like, this isn't Shark Nato. This is bad, bad, good movieing. Shut the fuck up. The group said that Velasapaster was reverse engineered. They came up with the title. You know what I mean? And then made the movie. And I, bro, if you have a title like Velasapaster, you have to make the movie for that. You know what I'm saying? And if you had an idea like that and you felt like you had to make the movie, $35,000 is about what you could put on four or five
Starting point is 00:44:06 credit cards to make the movie. Bro, this is going to be great. This is going to be great. I'm excited. All right. Everyone check out Velasapaster. It's on Amazon Prime. I think if you have Prime, you don't have to pay for it, but the rent is like $4 otherwise.
Starting point is 00:44:21 But we're for sure. I'm watching that tonight. I cannot wait. Make it $10, bro. Take my money, please. I want to support causes that really mean something to me. Like shitty movies and monkeys involved in dinosaurs. Fun is better than good, bro.
Starting point is 00:44:34 I want fun and I know vola. Asa pastor, it will be fun. That's all that matters. All right, that's all the time we have for today on Jenkins and Jones. Hope everyone has a good Monday. And we'll catch you guys on Thursday when we're back. Bye. Bye.
