Well, the day is funny, though. Yeah, they is funny. Because we're not going to probably attribute. Of course not. It's they. Because one person is always they. Yeah. And then it just travels.

Even though I've seen people share a similar sentiment to it, but this person just worded it. What do you say? Something to the effect of. It's, uh... The Joe Button podcast is the Wendy Williams for, 40 old dudes. Joe Button

Podcast is the Wendy Williams 40 old dude. I like to think that we're do other things too. But I think Wendy Williams being, when he was so dope to me I don't take that as a day. Yeah, we're. Agreed. That's the thing. That's a legend. That's a legend. Yeah. Wendy Williams is Wendy Williams. So I think TV Wendy Williams. When they say that, are they trying to dis us? Yes. Yeah.

Oh, see, I'm slow. Wendy Williams is an all-time great to I'd be like, nah, they hit that on the head. They're feeling us. And he said, for 30-year-old, 30-plus. His tweet says, Joe Button podcast is just Wendy Williams show for 30-plus niggas. I would say 40-plus, but you 30-plus niggas ain't slick. Yo, oddly enough, you sleep on our 18-35 demo.

Oddly enough, you do sleep on it. A lot of people, there's a lot of kids. Yeah, it is. College kids, younger kids, my girl kids, my kids, my kids, friends. Same. My kids, friends, like, don't sleep on the young heads to listen to us, but I do understand the point. I get it.

And it's not wholly offensive. Yeah, I don't, I'm not mad at it. I like it. Even if it was trying to be offensive. You need to offend better. If you were trying to, y'all, I slapped the shit out of you, you came here with all our energy said we had a classic last episode now you did staring off into the fucking bitch.

You came in here with all the energy, hype me up, you put it all out of the energy, you put in my back, he stepped the is. You said we had a classic, and you staring off into the fucking abyss. I was daydreaming me slapping him and him kicking me into the table. You still, you still-swain-off. If I slap the nigga, if I play slap him, would he have still kicked me?

I was thinking how far can I go and attempting to slap him? I daydream like, damn, but I fall in there what I got to do. I swear. Glass is going to be in my ass, paws. What up, nigga? That was our HR fight we was having. Yes. Because the rule here is normally if you break the table,

And audience, it's three topics. So. Yeah. And one of them is very Wendy Williams for you. You know. The HR rule here, normally if you break the table, you're fired. Yes. Flip step to Ish and said, I'm going to smack the shit out of you.

And then Ish said, well, if you do, then you're going to be on the floor and that table is going to be broken. And you're going to be fired. That's what Ish did say. I'm gonna get fired I'm the only one No I said that too I didn't understand Why you don't think both of y'all get fired

But then it's explained it And y'all know I'd be on his side But he was right He was minding his business At work Somebody came in his airspace And assaulted him He does have the right to defend himself

And in that if something breaks Then what I'm gonna do Yeah But just buy another fucking table And that's gonna take Eight months for them tables to go What I'm gonna have to go in there You don't want that

Then I'm going to go in there, yo, can I buy the display? You gotta have that bullshit talk about buying a display. So you no longer changing the set? Didn't you have an old set? You don't want the table anyway. Who don't want that table? You don't.

Shit, I'll bring that table to my house. I love these things. No, they don't. And I think they just go with mad shit. Anything. Yeah. So yeah, no, I want the table. As long as you got the circular aesthetic.

Yeah, yeah, I want the tables, for sure. You were planning on changing the set. They got bought three of them motherfuckers. That ain't one table. You just copied the book. You just stole the book idea. You just stole the book idea. You know what? Look.

I said that you were planning on changing the set. Is that plan still in effect? Nah. Change your mind? I like the set. Okay. Trying to maximize the set. No, that's trying to be humble, nigga.

Get the most I can get out of the set. Nah. What do you think I'm doing? I'm just saying like, nigga, don't save no money, nigga. Nigger's been. Get a new set like you said. I couldn't wait to see. I couldn't wait to see all the tricks you had up your sleeve, bro.

Because every time you up it, I know when you up it because something new come. When something happened, something new come, bro. So I can't wait to see what's new. Can't wait to see what's new. A new call, a new watch. At this point, it's not about earning more. It's about preserving.

You ain't put the numbers up? You ain't put the numbers up, boy? Airborne. They still say that? Let me add, Joseph. Do you all think we could have a classic without being an adversarial? No.

Of course. No. That's good. It's a key ingredient. Let's be real. Right. Exactly. I disagree.

That's a shame. I disagree. You know what to try. You might be right, but I want to hear it. Ish might talk me back, back off the ledge. The day you wasn't here, that last episode, when you wasn't here? Everything he says is a shout to me.

No, I wasn't. When you didn't, Tom, you weren't here? With Joe off, I think we can. No, I'm not trying to be, no, I ain't trying to be a dick. That was a really good episode that day. That was a really good episode. I wasn't trying to be a dick. And it wasn't adversarial.

It was just super silly. You know what? I'm going to smack the shit at this day. bro I wasn't trying to be funny I'm dead ass I wasn't I'm for real for it all right just know my antennas is up on you put him down bro I don't want no problem now what if he throws you into the table

I can see bad classic episodes that would be a classic it wouldn't come out though meme it would oh it wouldn't come out we tucked that why would we talk that if he threw you through that table that shit would not be assaulting him in any situation where you go to the table

I'm not assaulting anybody just so we clear I'm not assaulting verbally. There will be no, yeah, I don't. He felt unsafe. I don't physically abuse y'all. That's true. Yeah, I don't physically abuse y'all.

I'm not with that. Thrown into the table. But if he threw you into the table, that shit would be on his Instagram and like, before we finish the episode. No, I wouldn't. I don't want to come off that way, especially not going into 46.

That's true. He put on paper view. I don't want to represent myself that way. $90? $90? Oh, man. $100. What?

Oh man. All right. You gonna need it. No. Definitely going to need it. Before we start, I know the Meg shit is going to be our first topic. I got some beautiful music you up too. How are you all approaching this?

Shout to my lovely wife. Happy birthday, shout to all you guys for coming. But then she said, as we're going to bed, as the son's coming up, all I really want for my birthday is for you to go to brunch with me. Wow. Drunk brunch.

Wow. They're all drunk brunch. brunch dudes aren't supposed to go to brunch I have decided unless there's football on relationship dudes okay if you're looking for pussy

there's pussy at the brunch for sure a lot of if you're looking for pussy pussy everywhere I mean open your eyes but brunch gets them

all in a centralized location dancing and drunk early in the day yeah brunch is weird you can fuck them by 5 p.m. yeah it's true but

For the most part, it feels like, you know, like, I grew up with sisters. We all have lots of women friends. But you know when you accidentally, like, hear a conversation and you inquire. And then you find out about someone's penis or vagina information that you did not need to know whatsoever. Yeah. That's what the entire brunch experience felt like for me. Wow. It was absolutely horrible.

That's right of your own. That's right of a little. Wendy Williams. Yo, this guy is crazy. Will you only do there? There was other men there, but I think they were all kind of in my shoes. But in my party, I was the only dude there. Oh, wow.

And it was... There's only four of us. Oh, that's tough. You had to listen to that shit. I had to listen to that shit. But that wasn't even really... Bottomless anything, men, we shouldn't be there. Wait.

Yeah, I don't want... No. I don't want to be... Unlimited mimosa's and sangrias. Don't top off my drink. Parks, what the hell are you? I don't know. I'm trying to pick up what he putting down.

I can't pick it up. It's a horrible experience. I'm hung over at fucking 5 p.m. It's a miserable experience. No, that's great. Drunk, unlimited. Five o'clock,

I can go to sleep this off. It's because of his Saturday. Yeah, you're right. It sounds like it's because of his Saturday because if he's just isolating what he did on Sunday, we would sound like you have at a time.

I'm with that. I get to hear about people's poor privates, leachies and bottomless mimosas going around endless. in hopes that she's going to be bottomless in a couple hours. And women around. Sounds like funny me. But yeah, the Saturday into the Sunday. It was a lot.

It was a lot. It was a lot. My Monday was sleep. And then I woke up at 5 a.m. today. So it's, you know, it's been a long couple days. Been a long couple days. You're going to sleep tonight? Are you like the dude that just crashes after all this?

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, let me tell you, I had an absolute blast at Rim's birthday party. As did I. As did I. Whether was not what we were. wanted it to be. We had an elaborate outdoor

LEDs, projection screen, speakers, heaters, tents. But it was pouring the entire day, so we had to stay inside the whole time. And shit was still lit, though. Oh, it was super lit. It was just 30 of us in the fucking room half the size. Fokin'oka. It was crazy. I looked at that rain.

Looked at my girl. Said, we're out of here. You know how you look at it? Normally when it's raining, like bad like it was raining, and you look at your girl that normally means it's a dog. It's over.

And they're going to understand. Not for Remming Parks. I've seen that rain and was like, I didn't give a fuck. What are you wearing, baby? I'm wearing the same color. It's time to get head ass. For sure. And we showed up to parks.

A few things I like about the function at your man's wife's birthday party. One, whatever couple was not there, I assume you're fighting. Oh, for sure. Same. It was a few people.

It was a few people I expected to see. I didn't see y'all. I heard. Mark. Joe's such an asshole. Mark LeMont. I spoke to Jordan more than I couldn't make it because I didn't have childcare. My wife wasn't coming anyway.

No, no, I was rolling solo. Make it sound fancy. I didn't have child care. No, I was looking forward to because I was rolling solo. My wife was already... Oh, that's even more of a fight. But I couldn't get the babies that couldn't do it.

That's my same excuse. I'm used to that. It works. It's a great excuse, but it really happened to be this one I wanted to go to. I was looking forward to this one. So Rimm has a whole lot of Patterson friends.

Right? And Rimmie Parks is one of my favorite couples. So I got to, you know, just work with me. Rimm had a lot of Patterson friends. Has a lot of Patson. I sleep on RIM's friend group. So it was mad Patterson Spanish's. around, right?

And some dude who apparently is famous in Patterson for his nutcrackers. Again, remember the theme is a 2016, a 2016 vibe, which to Rim's friends was really exciting. Yes. To me, it was last week. That's just my drawer.

To me and Parks and my girl. I'm like, I'm looking around like, yo, we are, we old. We old. We old. But anyway, long story. less long. Nutcrackers for everybody.

Big, the shit so you get the you're the big ones. The tea from the Chinese store? Yes. Chinese restaurant? That big shit. For everybody. For everybody.

So apparently it's a thing for REM to hand the microphone to people randomly at the function of during her birthday to give speeches. You know, she's drunk. About her. Yeah, about her.

Yes. I'm drunk. I want to hear about me. Just big me up. So everybody just randomly start. to get in the microphone and the music had to come down

and it was time to give speeches for REM to honor him. Ice, you're not leaving me alone. Tell you a story. I should not leaving me alone. Tell your story. I'm all the edge. I'm all the edge.

But I got you. Jump in there. All 55 people gave speeches at this birthday party. If you were the husband, the best friend, or someone who just popped up this week. Yeah.

He said, go ahead. He said, go ahead. It's a safe space. He'll edit it out. Yeah. You start crying? No, no, no. No, no.

No, no. I got this thing that kicked. I got this thing in me. Like, in real life, I'm a good friend. So I got this thing in me. If my man. man's wife is around, then old school rules is in effect. I'm sorry.

Are you protective of? Yeah, I'm sorry, buddy. Hey, my man's wife is around. That's our wife. Sorry that that's how it's this goes. And maybe some of them there didn't know that. But the speeches were going fine until her guy best friend grabs the mic. Oh, hell no.

Whoever the fuck this nigger is. Like Joe Cook, please. Whoever this nigger was, he'd come up to you. He grabbed him. We don't heard 10 speeches, so we know how it's supposed to go. Hey, you're the greatest. I love you. We have so much fun together.

You got to be drunk. I made a bunch of questionable decisions when I'm with you. That's how it's supposed to go. Fifteen people just came up there and did that. Here come this nigger. Standing all extra close. Arm around. Nobody didn't unhad physical touch during these speeches.

You know, he's not lying. This nigga, all right, before he start, forehead kiss. Question. Is he gay? No. Okay, proceed. Go ahead. He started to speech off with her real name or something, like, her remi, like, with some different, with some different fucking pronunciation of her name.

Oh, first one. Nobody else called her this. Ramelda. Remed. Remed. This. Like, what did this? What did that?

What? And he gave her a foyer kiss and me and my girl and ice and his girls on the same couch. So, y'all looked at his shirt. He started talking. Yo, you've always meant everything to me. Since day one. I know when you longer than all of them. Oh, shit's throwing shots.

And, you know, back then. he's saying some shit that to me sound like something that he may be not saying but in my head all I'm hearing is no go to Starbucks man just a safe space

all I'm here he's seen fun all I'm here is yo when I was trying to smash when I was trying to crack back 15 years ago But it didn't just, I mean so now we just the best. And I know you better than all of these people

that's everybody here, no one exempt. He said that? No. That's how it sounded, though. No. No. Then he stopped to do another forehead kiss. I just want to tell you your future is bright.

I love everything about da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da then it was another four head kid. All right, dog. Three head, four head yes. Yes. Where was box? It's niggick. Parks was, yo, Parks is the coolest nigga in the world, man.

Parks was chilling somewhere. Parks was away. He didn't care about none of this. He was on the other side. He's not tripping. No, no, no. Which made us tripping more. Yes, I'm tripping.

Parks wasn't tripping? We tripping. Parks came up and gave a speech four speeches later. And I was staring money down, too. Yeah, nigga. Oh, no, no. Yeah, nigga.

Parks is just in the room and said, yeah, let me, let me. Yeah, male best. Let me let y'all know. Yeah, that's a husband talking. Male bestie, childhood, far-beddy. That's a husband talking, nigga. Get the fuck out of it.

Now, when he was giving his speech, he'd giving it right in front of the couch the four of us is on, so I'm grilling. But sometimes he catch eye contact with me, so I turn my grill to a smile. But as soon as he stopped looking, I start grilling and gillin and getting him. I'm grilling and grilling his shit out of that, man.

Get the fuck out of here. So anyway, so he was cool. He was cool. Yeah, that was funny. Oh, and another young lady, I guess another one of Rem's real good, real good friends. She grabbed the mic. This is the only time Parks popped up because Parks was cooking and DJing and in the yard. And this young lady grabbed the mic and said, oh, if you know anything about Remy, you know there are three things in this world that she loves.

Patterson, Huka. and whatever the third one. What was the third one? I think it was Parks? Fetty. Oh, yeah, because Fettie Wobble's on. Patterson, Huka, and Fetty. That boy, Parks, Rose from...

Time of my absolute time of my life. I'm glad you came. And your lovely ladies, of course. Oh, yeah, no, that was really showing up for y'all. Yeah, man. Answer the guys, your man. You rocked with the guy. Yeah, hell yeah.

All right. That's my dog. I got to come down. Then another one of her friends during the speech was like, oh, all the, all the sleepovers we've had, all the girl's sleepovers. I looked at free. Sleepovers. Though, because she said other shit in there. She was like, all the drunk nights.

Yeah, yeah. She started. All the questionable decisions. That was the one. All of the sleepovers. The way we looked at. Hey. A sleepover to the list.

Of shit, my wife ain't getting off. So I'm sitting there hype. I'm like, ooh, in my birthday party, but why did I do that in the moment, feeling good? Now my girl's like, yeah, try it. Try to hand the bank around at your party and give a speech. I mean, no, the dudes. She cleaned it up quick.

We want to hear the bitches give a speech, a girl got to mute up. My girl got to mute up, nigga. Anyway. Talk about sleepovers. Oh, that would be bad. Questionable decisions for drunk life. I know him better than anybody in here.

At our age, at our age, we can't invite girls that we've slept with to our birthday. Absolutely not. Is that the rule? At least not within the past 15 years. It should be a time. Okay, I'm about to say, you've got to be a more. Yeah, like someone's more. More.

Torreous. Look at Playboy Max. You sit a max if I'm playing way back It's cool, bro Anyway, and that's why we don't joke with ish Is it women ain't allowed that she know you had sex with Or just you can't even have it on the low Because you're worried to come out

That's a dangerous game There's nobody that should be at my birthday party That my girl knows I slept with Oh, I'd rather she know I would rather she know too I would rather she know too But I wouldn't want that girl at my birthday party So you wouldn't invite her.

So you're not inviting the one that she know you slept with. But I'm saying, do you invite the one that y'all slept together 20 years ago or 15 years ago? And she don't know. And she don't know. And she doesn't know. And she'd be. I don't know. I don't know.

My ex recently. But she was the ex from 25 years ago. Yeah, my girl, I asked. But she's aware that that was my ex. She's not tripping. She's not tripping. My girl, I asked. You hit that girl?

I think I'm. For real. She based that over your carry. Wait. But what does she base the question off her? Like just the person. She looked on. Awkward-ass introductions.

She can know him all day, but seeing a woman like... It might be how the girl look. It might be... You know what I'm saying? You got a type. The interaction. She saw the white toenail polish.

You can tell by the interaction when people have slept with each other. Like, that tension is palatable. And be like, you hit that? I guess maybe it's tight. He has a certain type. He do. Either way, I think it's better.

It's better. that it's known so it's not like that awkward shit can just be out the fucking way you'll love that shit coming out i agree that part too right i mean some for some people once it's known they ain't coming they're not allowed to come yeah really yeah not that's not my situation but i know people who got that situation where like if you say oh yeah me or her messed around i think 20 years ago i think girls a little more secure in that than niggas yeah i think girls be a little more secure like if you know somebody popped your work you like yeah I don't know about staying.

Stay in my head. They can't come up here, dog. Is y'all like that? If your girl used to mess with a dude and they're cool now, they just straight cool, no party invite? No party invite if you cool with somebody that my girl used to fuck.

You got to fucking tight shit. It's not. No, I'm trying to. I called my girl two years ago talking about some happy birthday. happy birthday Craig under some fucking comment So I know

Craig is flying with Such and such I You couldn't say speak to Craig No you can't speak to No you can't speak to Craig You're just going to fucking mind That's too much

Are you all crazy You are nuts Right y'all ain't going to have a real talk then Let's what you can't Three things on the board Mike Okay Craig just no Mike

Stop. Stop. Let's have a real, let's have a real dude to talk. All right. Let's do it. Me and you. Let's turn. Yeah, let's flip it on the other side.

I think it's that me and you. No, I'm about to say, me and you, or you are you on ICE, been friends for Madlong. So if, if, if a girl says happy birthday to ice that used to mess with you, you think that's inappropriate for her dude? You can just confuse me. He confused me as well. He's just switching the genders. Part. Yeah, yeah.

Like, yo, if Parks is seeing a girl, you don't know. Parks. None of us know Parks. Right? But Parks' girl used to mess with you. She don't fuck with you, but she say, happy birthday, ICE. Parks can be mad at that? Sorry, buddy. Sorry, buddy. That's crazy. That's crazy.

That's crazy to me, B. You cannot, some nigger that you was in a real relationship with three years, four years and up. And that's his man. And his man, his man his man that be the tie

see I think that the that's crazy I think it's all goes out the window after a certain time with your girl too if you met with your girl for like five plus years all that little shit to me is pointless yeah if y'all shit is real like the stuff don't matter if you're a year in then yeah that might be look like that's crazy

happy birthday Craig sorry sorry she had to delete it oh no I don't know I ain't I ain't really riff about I didn't really beef about it but I brought it up as a counterpoint but it was noteworthy something But I did. You kept that in your back.

Price, you're not. But that's what? Ice is, you ain't said a word this whole pile. No, I just, I just hit a word. Say something. Now, listen, listen. Parks. Yeah.

If, if. No. Why are you covering your mouth? Because I don't want to, you know what I mean? These things is different. If, if, if, or, B, or B, you said happy birthday, ice, you think that's incorrect. You don't have to repeat it.

Duh. Oh, sorry. If they got a new man, the relationship that ICE had with those girls, and if they said Happy Birthday Ice, but they used to deal with you, you, have you, they man, you'll be mad at that? Yeah. You are insane. That's crazy.

That's crazy. No, no, no, I'm crazy. Oh, we know? No, as long as you know. Don't beat me down with, oh, that's my fucking ex-ist friend and we still fly 25 years later. Who the fuck do you think you think? I'm cool with my ex-ist friend. Who the fuck me?

You did it. You did the ex-friend that's trying to smash. or wanted to smash? No, I think that the ex-friend is the ex. It's the plug. The ex-friend is the ex. The ex-friend is the ex. The ex-friend is the ex.

That's a stretch, though. Especially if you're serious with your girl. That's that part. To me again, all the rules is out the window. You know, I'm going to get the too long to worry about that. You know, trust is the fact. See, and that's why you can't have this talk. Because now y'all keep trying to paint it as if I'm worried about it.

I don't think you worry about it. I don't think you worry. But that's just, no, you're not getting that off. I think you're just doing it because that's what you're supposed to do it. Are you allowed to do it? Are you allowed to be cool with your ex-girlfriend's friends? How much money I got. I mean, I'm not saying, it's not that I'm not, it's not allowed or not allowed.

That don't happen with me. You don't say, send well wishes in general to. Okay. There's no. I don't have an ex's friend, like an ex that had a best friend, right-hand man or woman that I still communicate with. Why would I be doing it? No, yeah, yeah, I'm not.

You're not going to develop your own. That's all. You can't relate the two things. You might not communicate with them like on a consistent level. That's interesting. But if you're seeing it was their birthday and you just said,

happy birthday. I wouldn't give a fuck about hey birthday. Enough to go to to the text and send a happy birthday. I don't send you on happy birthday. Maybe not a text, but on social. I'm not.

I'm not, you know, you're not unfollowing them. No, don't. Yeah, I know. Yeah, I got it. Y'all got it. Y'all got it. How about you, I know you have certain traditional things around that?

No, no, I'm crazy. It's not a sound crazy. We go. O.G, you got it. Yeah, there you go. How about you, are you on the same time? I think I am. That's what...

Freeze. I don't know if I'm cool with that, y'all. That's crazy to me. Happy birthday. I don't know who cool with that. Especially, I've been... I've been... I'm shocked with you, because you've been the dudes

that have real relationships with these girls on some straight platonic brotherhood shit. You know what I'm saying? So if they said Happy Birthday to Ice, I don't see how you would feel

a type of way. Like that's crazy to me. Like you might not go out your way to communicate with them or keep in contact with them but if you came up happy birthday then. But if you came across your timeline

where you just saw it. Like yo you're famous so they might say you know happy birthday ice. Once you end the relationship you're in the relationship with everybody's connected. Would you still be cool?

I don't. Would you still be cool? You're not. So a person that's still cool with family. Well, ICE is cool with the brother. Yeah. But that's a contradiction. I don't get it.

Stop, stop. Stop. Would you still be cool with your ex-s parent if you had a relationship with them? If you had a relationship with your ex-parent and y'all were real close, even though you broke up, would you still check on her? Yeah, I don't feel like what I'm saying applies to parents. Okay. Or siblings? Cousins, family in general?

I can't think of too many instances where that's happened. For me, when am I tight enough with the girl cousin with 20 years late? talk to this person. See, I keep that related. I still talk to my ex-s and brothers and cousins and... I'll clown me up here for... I told you how close I am with my ex-brother. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I'll be clown because it was funny, but I get it. You're going to call me? I spoke to my ass. Oh, no, I'm phony. Because I got an ex who, when I see her sister out, I'm fly with her. I'm phony. That's not true. I'm wrong.

Duh. But Craig, no habit. I didn't want to call you out. You're my man. Oh, shit. You know what you? You knew it? But sister got ass.

Yo! Right? And sometimes you got to make it. She does. And she ain't as young as you was back in there. She's all. Easy. Little lucky?

I'm just saying, when the oldest sister 27 and then the younger sister's 23 back then it's like a big deal. It's a very big deal. In your 40s, she 39. She's 41, yeah. Oh, we told me to talk about. We do have shit to talk about. The big news of the week.

The big news of the week. Unfortunately. Come on, Mark. No. An announcement came across my timeline and it was... It shook the world. Meg the Stallion and Clay Thompson are no more. Damn, Gina.

I was... Fuck on. Meg came to her first. She went to her IG. Naturally. Of course. The stories, not the post. Oh, no, on the black screen.

And wrote, cheating. Had me around your whole family playing house. For what? Got cold feet. Holding you down through all your horrible mood swings and treatment toward me during your basketball season. Now you don't know if you can be monogamous, five question marks. bitch, I need a real break after this one by y'all.

And so we saw that, not exactly a blind item, right? It was pretty clear where she was talking about, for sure. But then she made a formal statement to the media, specifically TMZ. Thank God. Clear it up, man. Because, you know, there was a lot of speculation. Yeah, true. We didn't know.

We didn't know what was happening. So she went to TMZ and cleared it all up. She said, I've made the decision to end my relationship with Clay. Trust, fidelity, and respect are non-negotiable for me in a relationship. And when those values are compromised, there's no real path forward. I'm taking this time to prioritize myself and move ahead with peace and clarity. Okay. And then there's just one more little piece of information.

Y'all want to know she was on Broadway. Doing Moulin Rouge. Oh, okay. First gendered woman person to play this character, history making. She left early. Saturday, she got a stand ovation on Broadway, and it's announced that she's leaving her stint on Broadway early. Friday is the last day.

Yeah, it's assumed that Friday, May 1st is the last day because of all the drama. So it's a lot going on. I didn't know she was doing it. Yeah. I can't believe she would throw that away because of a little heartbreak. And I heard she's killing. It was a hard focus. Big heartbreak barks.

Because they're playing house. She's in New York. City. What you thinking? Oh, nothing. I'm just saying she could find another house. Well, let me say, as y'all are

queuing up your remarks, I was sad for the girl. I'm a Meg fan. And I always support her. And I remember a couple months ago when I was like, yo, they're doing a lot fast

and some of y'all was getting on me and then all the Meg the Stallion fans was attacking me, and I'm a Meg the Stallion fan, but they were attacking me. Why are you hating on that relationship? All I said, it was moving kind of fast. Maybe you don't name a boat after somebody.

Maybe y'all don't do everything, all the videos, all that shit. Not because I don't want y'all to win, but because most celebrity relationships just don't last. That's true. What's the name of Meg first album, Mark? I don't remember. She made an album? What's the name of Meg's second project, Mark?

She made a second project? She raps. That's the one that isch like, I think. Exactly. Which one? This thing will just be getting up here getting shit off. What I'm a Mac fan? What are you a fan of?

The first album I actually liked, I just thought it sounded like one long, I like the tracks that I liked, but it just sounded like one long strip club. Like what's some of your favorite songs for me? Savage is going to be my main one. I mean, I also liked her on Wop. I liked her on... The deep cuts. I'm 47 years old.

What do you want me to be doing? I'm not a hiding. My daughter. So for context... No, Mark, you know you don't have to do this. This is the truth. For context, in high school, in high school, my daughter was a huge Megistyle fan.

Why is that funny? It just says, Mark, don't worry. Come on, come on, come on. I'm with you. My daughter was a big fan. So she put Meg on kind of my radar. She was, like, obsessed with Meg when she was in high school. Right, right, right, right.

So when she would play Meg, I'll listen to it. You know what I mean? And then when all this shit happened with Tori, I became a supporter of her, the fan of her is less because of the music and more because of everything that happened to us. Of course. So I'm always rooting for her because of that. Not because I'm putting the big playlist

So you're not a fan of her at all. I am a fan of her. But she got shot. And you're just a supporter. And you're supporting. And a horrible injustice is done. If y'all make a distinction between fan and supporter, when she makes music, I like it. I didn't like the last project as much as the first project, but I like her music.

But you like more since she got shot. Since she got shot. Yeah. Yeah. I like Nipsy more after his tragic passing, too. A lot of times I come to people when something happens. As an older person, like, I don't, I'm not in the mix as much. So, yeah, like, I learn more about Nipsey after he passed.

I learned more about Megan after she got shot. I learn more about artists when things happened. I learned. I heard more Tori after he got locked up. You know what I mean? So sometimes you just find out late. No, I totally understand. We got you.

I see what he's coming from. I'm picking up what you putting down. So listen, so Meg and Clay broke up. This was like over the weekend or some shit. Yeah. Yeah. And I immediately got a bunch of texts to my phone saying, go easy.

I got a text to my phone from people I ain't speak. in ages. Like, yo, I know you saw the news. I know how you feel. Don't you go in there and go crazy. Oh, we're not being the allegation. So,

so I, on the weekend, I'm off, I'm off work. I ain't thinking nothing about these hip-hop motherfuckers. I was taking it back. I was like, yo, what do you motherfuckers think of me that I'm that invested in this girl's relationship

to come in? People cheat every day. NBA players Stars Stars People break up every day And while I am on record

For saying that I don't All the way Fuck with the girl For me that doesn't mean Actively Routing against somebody Or celebrating when Something goes wrong in their life

I thought that was a little weird Until I opened up the internet And I saw Go ahead, finish cooking court I opened up the internet and saw men were on the timeline, like, throwing parties, balloons, that's the shit I'm talking about. Confetti, uh, think pieces, uh, yeah, that's right.

Go for Clay. Like, he wanted to chip again. And it was like, yeah, I must have really, really misrepresented myself somewhere throughout the course of my career. Whatever you guys think about me, I've probably given you enough reason to think it. But you, this is off. I'm not celebrating this lady's breakup

There's nothing Why don't, why do I care? Why don't you be that invested? Yeah, why do I care to this lady? Why is anybody that invested? Outside of them to. That's all I'm saying.

People feel strong about her. So they have strong reactions, but whatever you think about good or bad, like to me to be rooting for a breakup. I mean, people were making infographics about all the dudes she's dating and she's slept with.

It's weird. It's weird. Like, that's all I'm saying. I happen to like her. But like, even if I didn't, there are people who I don't like when they have a breakup, I'm not out here like run down their car fax

Yeah, that's just weird. Yeah, and if you know me for real, I'm more of a fan of love than I am a not fan of Meg. I'm a sad a little bit. You know what I think it was? I was happy for, I was talking. So talking, nigga. Hey, I'm on you, nigga, I ain't forget.

I ain't forget. I don't forget. That Ox tail you, you think it's like you think it's over, nigga? No, I was the family photos and Clay having her around the family warrants my heart because she doesn't have family. True. So when the breakup shit was announced, that's the first thing I thought like,

oh, damn it, that one hurts because I thought they was, you know, you know, I thought they was doing the thing. I didn't. That's the shit that bothered me. Because remember when it was happening, I was like, this is moving too fast. And so, I mean, people up here was even like, chill, like let her live.

Well, it was moving too fast. And I'm on the record. Put me on the record. I don't believe anything that comes from a Megastowne. I don't take, I take it all with a grain of salt. So why it moved so fast, I don't know. Why you announced the breakup, I don't know. For me, with her, it's never as clear as it seems. He was in it too, though.

So that's why I, and I don't assume. It's where you're about to get shaky. No, I'm not. I'm not. What is he was in it too means? What does that mean? It's not like... He was a willful participant?

Yeah, like, sometimes you see videos where the dude is just kind of there in the video because he kind of has to be because the girl is videotaping. I got it. But he was starting to, like, pull her in on the red carpets. He was starting to say stuff. I'm just saying, like, what I think is they both fell in love. They both nose was open and they both went to the media because people do some time when they're in love. And then he may have just lost interest faster than she did.

And now are you out there? That's what it looked. That's what it looked like to me from the outside. Maybe he didn't lose interest. Maybe he was just, maybe he slipped and fell. Fair enough. It happens to the best of him. Dog.

Fair. Yeah, come on. Come on, H, please. No, I'm not going to use me to beat them off. No, we'll do it together. We'll do it together. It's a few things. I think that, I think I could address all the points.

I think it's whack when men are sitting on the internet rooting for somebody's demise. I think that's goofy. Trash. I think what happened. was women started killing this nigger. And men kind of came to his defense a little bit. And then doing that, they started killing Meg. Why were the women killing him?

Because she put it out there like, yo, he was cheating on me. He had me around his family. Not just that, though. It's back to our other pick-aside conversation. There was a lot of people that was on the other side when the whole trial thing went and they are forever against her. So any bad news that, So a breakup?

No, I'm not even talking about that. I'm talking about why people were reacting a certain way on social media. There's people that she's public enemy number one. So when anything negative news attached to her comes out, they're ready to celebrate. See, I never want to be that. No, no, no. It's very insolish. It's a more, yeah, yeah.

It's very insolish. I wasn't even on, I'm just talking about people started killing Clay. Like, people started killing Clay. And so I think men started coming to his rescue a little bit. And you could come to his rescue a little bit. And you could come to his. rescue without dissing meg. You get what I'm saying?

Like the two things don't have to be true. Like as men, we can speak from membrane and say, yo dog, it ran its course. Like, yo dog, and this is going to sound horrible, really horrible. Ladies, I want y'all to know when a dude brings you all around his family, that don't mean he love you? That don't mean nothing. That don't mean he's going to say. Yo, it's aunts and mothers that know six and seven and eight and nine and ten chicks. But it depends on a dude.

It is. It does depend on it. Because if I bring you around my family, it means. It doesn't mean nothing, but it doesn't necessarily mean everything. It don't mean you get married. There's some guys that use the family card to get what they want. Like a lot of dudes bring them all home. A lot of dudes bring them all home.

It's true. It depends on the girl too sometimes. That's what I'm saying. It just depends on it. Yeah. I've seen both. So they like, yo, why would you bring her around his family? Like he named the boat after, yo, dog, it might have been going good.

He might have gotten some intel. He might have gotten some information that's pushed him the other way. Made him pivot. It's a lot of things that go on in relationships It don't necessarily got to be You know, this dude had these bad intentions When he met this girl Do I'm sorry I don't think his information

I think that once you start If you're dealing with somebody You start staying together and you start seeing more of them You realize that I don't want to marry this person Dog they had a whole bunch of pictures Or maybe he doesn't know that happened He just fucked up somewhere You think it's live more likely that he got information

to her than just spend She said you got cold feet Could be a combination of both We could have just got court sheet and when she come from her about it, he hit her with her, yo, I don't know if I could be monogamous. Yeah, it could be just be very simple. Whereas, yo, I am a hundred ex, I'm a handsome, filthy, filthy rich man. And we've only been dating for a year or something.

Maybe not even. I might not want to settle down right now. I might not be on that. All that's on the table. But it was interesting to see on the internet that initial response. Like Flip just says, like it was almost like people were making, adding pieces to the store. that weren't there to make her the bad person. Now, again, those things could are possible.

Because I don't assume that the first person that says something is telling the truth. She could be absolutely not telling the whole thing. But what I'm saying is it was like, well, she said he cheated. And some people immediately went to, well, she must have done this, this, this, this, this isn't this? We don't know that. We don't know the story. That's why I don't want to jump on any.

They started showing clips. They showed a few clips where she was like drunk and she was being loud and she was being boisterous. And he was just sitting there with the face like. I'm not giving a reason why I'm just saying to the people that are saying maybe she was too much for him He's not the only dude that gets a little annoyed When they're

They're saying they're obsessed They took old clips and made a narrative A lot of times you see something that you want And when you finally get it Nick you don't want it no more life Yo I wanted that Nick it's in the beginning It's fire

I don't after it ran this course Naga sometimes that happens quickly And that's cool But let's assume for just one second That she's telling the truth about what happened right? Then it's running his course is still different than cheating, right?

It's not about the running his course and saying I don't want to do this anymore is getting caught cheating. But we're talking about what led him to cheat. Nothing. Sometimes it don't have to be anything. Sometimes he would just want more different. Or he might not want,

there's so much shit we don't know. This could be the fourth time she caught him. We don't know anything. This could be him. She ain't leaving him for cheating once. That's what I'm saying. It could be. It could really just be dude

not even wanting to leave her. Right. I just had something. over here that I did, I ain't want you to find out you found out in your reacting this way. This is the part. We don't know shit. This is the part I don't like. We're now speculating

from both sides. Why? Because she brought us into her relationship in a way that I don't think she would have done if she'd had two days to think about it. Part of the reason why it's interesting to me is because my daughter was such a big Meg fan. And so girls, her

age, looked to girls like Meg as models and examples of how to do shit. Right. So I don't That's why it's really not a laughing matter for me and we are going to laugh but why this is a microcosm of a more serious thing to me is because

of what you're saying. Yeah. So many people look up to Meg right? And what I've seen from Meg now is a pattern of not knowing how to read men

respond to men. communicate to men or understand men. That's before Clay. I'm going to bring this full circle for just one brief moment. That's why the male best friend is not a threat or worry to me because sometimes they can give some insight to your girl about how men think. My girl's man that we were talking about since we back there is some NBA player nigger that I had on fantasy one time.

And no, you can't keep talking to his best friend for... No, no, no, I'm not talking about the friend's best friend. I'm talking about... No, I'm back now. I thought they talk about it. Happy birthday, Craig. Nick of birthday, Craig. And the bulls.

Oh, shit. No. That's what the good. Craig Gelo? Craig Hill? Craig Hodges. No, for real. So now, so now here we are again.

Men, men, men in man world. Yeah, I'm gonna just, just mute up I'm chilling, bro. You don't even have to tell me to mute up. In man world, I'm gonna try my best. In man world, going public too soon, that's a, okay, we're checking that. You in bliss, you confetti, you partying,

you, oh my God, I need the world to know. But the man, we're gonna check that. Like Ish said, you're gonna meet my family. You don't have family. you kind of a lot of women that the dude's life now is there becomes their identity a lot of women do that so yes when that happens you're going to meet some cousins you're going to meet my parents if you can cook you may even cook for them they're going to clear the plate it's going to look like they enjoyed it again in man world that ain't saying nothing to the woman is saying a whole lot the whole we're going to put our hands together and do a heart and i'm going to put your name on the boat for me i'm Only speaking to me, Mark, would have said, I'm not serious about none of this that we're doing. The boat thing would have been the giveaway.

Some dudes love bomb great. One. Some dudes situation ship game is the meanness. Some dudes are going to make you feel like the queen of the castle, but it's a short stay. and women think that all cheaters belong in the same box. I don't. I don't.

Got no kind of cheetahs. So when she comes out public and says he cheated, women will interpret that a certain way. I said, oh, that's a reasonable expectation. That's what I said. What's the reasonable expectation? The cheating? That he would cheat.

or he would want more or he would desire more. His past says that. His track record. His track record says it. The girls before said it. He scored 60 and 11 dribbles says it. He scored 40 points in one quarter. He has four championships. It says it.

He's half of a Splash brother that says it. He plays. He also plays. He likes, we know you do. That's why it's it. Men are talking now. As a man, I see it different because... Tell me why.

This is the part I see. I think it's reasonable to expect him. There's nothing wrong with him saying this ran his course. This is the best four months of my life. I'm out. I ain't got no issue with that. Shit, I've been that guy. Okay.

You know what I mean? But I think if you make a commitment to somebody, it's okay to bounce and say, I don't want to do this no more. But I don't think it's fair to say if somebody cheats on you to say, well, you should have reasonably expected him to cheat because he's the second-grade shooter of all time. Like, or third. Like, to me, I think it's okay.

She has a right to be pissed that somebody cheated on her if that's what happened. That's all I'm saying. Again, if could you see the, again, I'm just going to use the daughter example. If my daughter came to me and said, yo, dad, I'm dating somebody. He's in the NBA.

He's a big star, and he's, let me meet his mama. Yeah, I'd be like, prepare yourself for the end. Right? I would say all of that. Okay. But if he cheated on her, I was still, I was still honor her feeling of feeling pissed off. But my issue with,

with it isn't... Part of the prepare yourself for the end wouldn't be letting her know that there is a possibility that there will be some other ones? Probably. Yes. I would say there's a great likelihood.

He's fucking somebody right now is what I would tell her. He still support his daughter. But she's still got a right to feel away about it. My issue with her isn't that. My issue is the way... Again, people are right to do how they want to deal with heartbreak.

It's just the way she's managing. I wouldn't say go to social media right away because it affects your career. It's affecting your life. It also puts a spotlight. I mean, it just does a lot of, of things that I don't think you want to do. And I think now in this era of social media.

Or you want to do it. Or it's a... Because I want to do it because I'm back into the... Victim back. Let me ask you a question. And I'm not saying that because I don't know. Me either. She could have been really head over heels.

I think she was. I think she was. And either she's not trying to go over her victim back. It's a good story for whatever she may have coming, potentially. She knows the game, yo. See, I think it's far simpler than that. I think you did something to piss me off. I'm going to embarrass you about it.

I'm going to put you in front. Street for the shit you did, because one of the things being the good, nice, handsome, tall, light-skinned guy is you have a reputation. And I'm going to fucking-in-up. This is the social media version of key in your car. Mark, I want to rewind a little bit because back to reasonable, back to reasonable expectation. You wouldn't say that it would almost be naive to think that this man with all the things that we just said would be now committed in six months.

This is what I think. Let him answer me, please. I think it's reasonable to expect that somebody will keep their word, especially if it's the nice guy. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect somebody to honor their word. That's not what I asked. That's not what he asked. That's not what I asked at all.

You said, you're not having a reasonable expectation. You said, is it naive to have that as the reasonable expectation? No, I said, would it be naive to think that that man that we just described is committed in less than six months? To monogamy? Yes. No, I don't think it's naive. It is very much.

It's very nice. And factor in that same person's history. Then that means that you can always blame the person who gets cheated on. No, I'm not doing that at all. I'm not doing that at all. Any one of us, right? I don't have anywhere near $100 million. I'm not even.

I don't believe you, but. Right. When you meet a person, and we've grown, bro. See, a lot of this shit is people not in high school. When you meet a man, when you meet a woman that's popping, specifically a man, because I know women that could sit at home and be totally celibate for long periods of time. When you meet a man that's handsome

worth $100 million and that is popular, he got girls. Cool. Along the lines of getting to like you, he still got girls. When he starts to really like you, he then starts to taper off with

those girls and start pushing them to the side. Yeah. Because he's spending more time with you. He's starting to like you. All of these other things. My nigga, a nigga don't clear him out they covered in six months. And anybody that thinks else, I mean, think something else is naive. So let me ask you a question. At the moment that you committed to your girl, did you clear out your cupboard?

My girl now that I have currently? Yeah. It took me a time to commit to my girl in the process of me starting to like my girl. My cover starts. No, my question, once you committed, was your cupboard clear? Damn near. If it wasn't clear, it was almost there. I don't, again, I'm telling you, though, I don't have $100 million.

dollars. I don't travel from state to state to state and got me. He got way more options than I had. So hold on let me finish. So I'm talking about fuck him. I'm talking about to Joe's point, the reasonable expectation of a grown woman that has been outside and I don't want to blame the

women. I'm saying anybody, the real expectation is that somebody that is outside that has been moving around for a period of time has some significant people in his life that he now has to rid himself of. And in that process, I don't know when they committed. Nobody even said they committed.

We assuming they committed because she was posting pictures in. I mean, he kind of said, he suggested as much as well. He did. He kind of, he kind of leaned on. What was the suggestion? That they was together because we see pictures of them. What's the, where did he suggest? When he's, when he's publicly at events, when he's at the dinners,

what do you're saying no to? Mark, you're being naive again. I'm not being naive again. That's a good point. Celebrities. Let me just say it before you tell me, I'm naive about it. Let me just finish the thought point. What I'm saying is in public, he has claimed her as his woman.

I think that could they behind the scenes have a... Has he said publicly, this is my woman? Yes. Okay, because I haven't heard that. That's what I'm trying to say. Now, what they have behind the scenes, he could have said, this is my woman, it's still behind the scenes.

They could be polyamorous. I don't know their situation. But I don't think it's... But they certainly were in a relationship. And he's very specifically said that. I just think you should have, I think you should have more info than most when it comes to celebrities

and the games that celebrities play, especially when it comes to relationships. So who cares that he said something, publicly. They was playing the PR game. They was being seen at events. They was being seen. They was doing the thing. The premise of this part of the conversation is. I didn't, I, as an outsider,

looked at that and said, and doubled down in my, okay, he's not serious. He's not serious. And I don't know if he publicly ever said it. They're saying that they made their relationship public in July of 2025 with Thompson confirming it by posting the photo of them together and attending

her foundation gala. See, and that's my point. But do you remember the interview we gave at the foundation gala? I don't. So this is what I'm saying. He talked about how pride he was to be with this woman. And he didn't mean in this room at this moment. He was very clearly.

With her. Yeah, it would be a stretch to say that he wasn't claiming. And if he did that in July of 2025. Yeah. See, this is what we've got to stop being politically correct. If a nigger met a girl in July. But he didn't meet her in July. That's a huge.

If they start dating in July. No. That's what I'm, that's what I'm saying. The claiming, I'm saying, if they claimed each other in July, they could have been dating. since January and in July is by the time he cleared the cupboard. That's all I'm saying. I don't assume that the moment that he, if he claimed in July, then yes, it's naive to think that his coverage clear. But in July, when we start talking about them dating and being an item,

the first thing everybody said was they were dating for a while before they went public, that they had a private relationship and now they've decided to go public. By the time I go public with somebody. And that's why you can't say that it's crass that people online are bringing up the timeline of her relationships because that's what refutes that. unless they both were seeing other people and then they finally locked it down together in July which I think is reasonable for young people to show the pattern before we get to the pattern

because I think that's a great point. All I'm saying is it's reasonable to assume the NBA players or famous people, anybody who's popping, is going to have other people. It's reasonable to assume that men are going to cheat. It's reasonable to assume that rich and powerful people

are really likely to cheat. I'm not saying it would be naive to not think that that's possible. But at the same time, because that's not what's in dispute for me, what I'm saying is at the same time, it's not unreasonable to assume that the person you decided to make a commitment to, who's made a commitment to you, can keep their word. It's going to keep their word. That's all I'm saying. And so, yes, it's just like if you were to walk through three in the morning with jewelry on in a bad neighborhood, yeah, that's some dumb ass shit to do and you're likely going to get robbed,

but you also shouldn't rob people, right? Both things can be true at the same time. I'm saying, yeah, she might have been naive if she thought this NBA player was going to be pristine. Because he's the good guy. I'm just saying, no, she still has a right to be pissed about it. Oh, I'm not trying to take that away. I agree with all that. What I think happened, and this is just my personal opinion, I think she was dating a bunch of bad boys.

Mm-hmm. And I think Clay Thompson might have been her. Son of Michael Thompson. Son of Michael Thompson. Like, it's not just... Yeah, yeah, no, no, no, no. Son of Michael Thompson from the Hollywood Fast Breakers Showtime Lakers. This niggas has been rich his entire life.

this nigga has been handsome his entire life If you're that handsome you keep saying it He loves him he is handsome He's a handsome guy bro I'll give a nigga credit with his doing So when you start saying I'm 6, 7 I'm handsome and I'm filthy fucking rich And I've been rich my entire life I think because he's not in the media as much

As some of the other niggas that she dated She thought she found herself a nerd Yeah Cool until he proves to you that I'm not a nerd And now you go online publicly and you castrate this nigger, cool. Now we're going to go to the pattern

because I was being quiet. And then you get a nigga like partisan Fontaine that supposedly from everybody that I know calls him a great man and a great guy and you made him look like shit in the public. So some of them niggas that's dissing her online

saying what's good for the goose is good for the gander, they kind of got a point. Now that's a different point. I'm not disagreeing with that point. Because I dissed the niggas that's rooting for and I was being quiet. I dissed the niggas that was rooting

for her demise, that shit is corny. I don't think it's, cute, I don't think it's cool. But niggas do got a point. Because now you, because now the women are killing this nigga. Partisan Fontaine stood by you during your trial. When you lied to this nigga and told him you didn't fuck Torrey Lanes. And then it came out that you fuck Torrey Lanes.

This nigga's shaking hands with the nigger that you was fucking looking like a fucking goof. I agree with all of that. But Clay don't get a free pussy card because she should have done partisan. I'm not saying. I'm not saying. But I'm talking about the people that are dissing him and acting as if he's, he's is just this monster if he cheated. I don't know if he cheated. I don't know why they broke up. I don't know why they broke up.

I'm with you. I'm saying the same thing you say about the difference that I'm saying is I agree with if you say she shit it on party so then that's why niggas is mad at Clay. Wait I'm sorry I'm saying that backwards. Mad at her. My point is saying what he's saying with karma and you're not. And I'm saying karma is something that you tell her but that doesn't then mean that we shouldn't be mad at Clay if Clay did something fucked up

because what I'm saying is the fans are mad at Clay right and the other fans are saying well you shouldn't be mad at Clay because she did this shit to all these other niggies I'm saying those are two separate issues and when you say fans are mad at Clay I just think Meg fans are mad at that's it. That's what we're talking about nobody else is looking at Clay

everybody else is like done and that was the point of the post to get the Meg fans mad at Clay and they're going crazy they're in death threats they whaling the fuck out Yeah, which I think it's, which again, to me, that's not how that should have been handled. I agree. But I'm saying if you're mad at Clay for doing something fucked up, I'm saying, let's assume Meg has been the worst girlfriend in the history of women ever. Cool.

Get her for that. But that can't be, that can be a deflection from the Clay shit right now. She could be the worst ever and still got shit on in this situation if what she's saying is true. I'm just saying let's deal with both of them. Do you feel like because you took a stance to stand with Meg that you sort of convolut everything together and you don't want to seem like you're criticizing her even though there. there's obviously a pattern of her behavior. Like you wouldn't, because you're saying that even if there is a pattern,

you're saying that let's watch Clay, but you're not addressing the pattern of what this woman is doing and who she has heard. I literally just said the opposite. I'm saying if there's a pattern, go at it for the pattern. Okay. And even in this instance, it's an incident, I said, look, I don't like the way she's handled it.

I don't like going public about that. I'm saying all of that. All I'm saying is that that can't then be a license to say, well, forgive Clay. You know, fuck, if Clay, let's assume, again, let's just, this is all premise of her, on her story being accurate, right? If what she's saying is true, then yes,

Clay did something fucked up. And I don't want to say, well, we shouldn't, some men are saying it's not fucked up because you should expect it because he's rich. Some people are saying it's not fucked up because she fucked over these other dudes. I don't think, but, oh, God, I was trying to be mature today, but.

Why? Don't start nothing new. I don't think it's fucked up on, on Clay's part. And that's the part I'm disagree. If you give you a word for somebody, you should follow through with your work. Because cheetah should be noble. No. Men and people should be noble.

I get his point. Mark's point is ideal as opposed to being real, like it's an idealism situation as opposed to real. If we're being ideal, then I agree with everything Mark's saying. I don't think it's idealistic to say, you're your partner shouldn't cheat on you. It's idealistic to say, my partner's not going to cheat on. Mark, Mark, Mark, it's not your partner. That's not your partner. Your girlfriend, whatever you want to work.

That's not your man. That's not none of those things. If that's not a man, and that's why my advice to Meg is just to take care of yourself, love on yourself, get with some, just get with a circle of people. Yeah, I feel, I feel bad for it. The advice is like for her.

Even with the being around your family, let's just say you meet a girl. You feeling her. We've been there before. Y'all on that honeymoon, Like, yo, I can't wait to speak to you on the phone things. And Thanksgiving's coming up. If you, any type of nigger with this much decency,

the girl that you're feeling that has lost her family and that has been through some tumultuous shit over the last two years gets an invite to your family dinner. Of course. Now, whether she is viewing that as... No, see, I would say no. No. If you feeling this girl, I'm inviting.

I've done that before. I would. I would definitely. Of course you would. Right? You're better people than me. Cool. So now when this girl comes to things...

Do they live together and shit too? I don't know. Yes, that's what I'm saying. This idea is not his girl. Y'all hit... But if they lived together, see, y'all move to goal pose a little bit. I don't know that. Because when I...

I don't know what is wrong. This whole exchange was premised on if what she's saying is true. And then when I say, well, that's her dude. You're like, that's not her dude. It's like, well, that's what she's saying. Well, if what she's saying is true, then I'm changing everything. But he also said that... Because then I would have to believe when she said, he said,

y'all I'm not sure I could do this monogamous thing. After getting caught cheating. Who cares? We don't know when he said that. I'm saying, again, if what she's saying is true. I'm not saying it is, it's not gospel, but I'm saying the whole premise here is, if her version of events is accurate, then she's saying, yes, I caught you cheating. You know, that fidelity, virtue, trust, all that shit of value. And now after playing a house with me, now all of a sudden you don't know if you want to be monogamous.

It's calm, yo. That's it. That's fine. But all I'm saying is that if that's not. If that's what happened, that's not cool. That's it. He's right. But let me ask you this now.

Let me ask you this. Let's just say he was feeling Meg. Wait, slow down for a minute just because I want to understand. Because when poor people, when people, when poor people are in a relationship and you say they live together, you know what it means. Yes. Tell me what it means when you say that she lived, they live together? Because I'm looking at that mean. What is that?

What is that? is he talking? And they said they met in July. Supposedly they met in July. But what does that mean that they live together when the two people are as wealthy as they both? Did she sell her house or get rid of her apartment and move and with him? This is what I don't know this.

But here's what I do know. Look. Here's what I do know, Joe. So it's not really, it's not what you paint in it. It's playing. Look, again. Yes, it's playing out. That's literally what she wrote in the quote.

Played house. That's my point. That makes a nigger think that they're getting. Mark, I'm saying there are men out there that play house. Broke men, men, ugly men, men with a lot less. No jumping house. Jumping not wet. Yes.

Those men play house. Second purest form to Ray Allen. So I think that I'm not going to say like he said that she found a, she found a a nigga that she thought was a nerd. She found somebody that she thought was different than all the people. That comes from a family. She said he's the first. nice guy I've dated. He's the first part guy who I've ever dated

who was nice to me. She should say nice guy. She said who was nice to me. As a man, right? Yeah. I've met women. True. That they didn't meet no nigger like me what I was putting on. And they said that. They expressed it and I believed them. Yeah. Spend cycle time.

A spin cycle time. Soon as they start, oh my God, I've met nothing like you. What happens then is those are the women that want to rush and expedite things because you the guy that I've been missing this experience. I had a dad and my dad showed me how to treat my mom. And so because I opened the door for you or because I do things that no other man might

have ever done for you in life, you are automatically assuming that I'm doing these things because I'm smitten by you. He could have been smitten. He was definitely smitten. Listen what I'm saying. No, he wasn't definitely smitten. Mark. This is what I'm reading.

No, he was not. At the beginning he was. No, he was not. How do we know? No, he was not smitten. Okay, let me say this. He was certainly performing smitten for her friends, for other people. This is great.

Look at the video with her and when they're at the golf thing, where her. Amar. What? Every nigger in his room has performed. No. Or been smitten for a week. No. No, no, no, no.

Some of the niggas in this room are assassins. And I don't, it sounds so horrible. I just want the world to know. Some of these niggas in this room are assassins. So when you go to the golf out and with her girlfriends, guess what you're going to do? When we go to top golf and we go bowling, guess what I'm going to do? Lovable. I'm going to be the nigger that's trying to win over her girlfriends because I've been here before.

Right, but that's what I'm... The two things are not equal. I'm not saying they are. What I'm saying is, well, two things. One, we can't assume he wasn't smitten. True. Yes, the fuck. You can, Mark.

Shut the fuck up. No, what is he talking? Yes, we can. I can't say that. You said it three months ago we were to talk about Megan. I said this shit is moving too fast because nobody falls in love that quick. And you were the first nigga to say, I fall in love that quick. I move him in in 24 hours.

I fall in love fast. I'm a love bummer. You said all that shit. And what I'm saying is he could be doing the same light-skinned rich shit that you just did. That's the fuck I'm saying. No, you shut the fuck up and listen for a second. What I'm saying is he might have did the same shit that you just dumb ass used to do. That's what the fuck out.

Clips these bum-ass niggles. You give him the fuck. Now, now, all of a sudden you don't know. love bombing this. Now, of a sudden, you don't know it's like to be smitten in 24 hours, leaving her leaving with the club, and she stayed a fuck in my house for three weeks. That's what the fuck you said. That's what I'm saying is happening here. That might have happened.

Yes, he might have fallen out of love fast. I'm with you. But what I'm saying is, you got a responsibility to say something about that or do something about it. Yes, there's assassins in here. But when you're 37 years old and you're an assassin, at some point you got to take some accountability for that shit. At some point, you got to say yes, I know when I love by, I'm like, no, listen.

Sometimes when I love by, I'm like, look, I used to do that shit. I used to show up. I used to be I used to do all the shit, all the nice guy shit. All the boyfriend shit. I'm holding shit. I'm in seeing it. All that shit. They don't know you a secret.

But I never told them that I was they dude. I never said, I look, right. But I made it seem that way. The action, the act. I was present in that way. And you knew she thought you was. And I knew what she thought. At some point you know at 37 years old.

You see what it's like to be the man. You know what I mean? I know you tried to get your little moment. You see what it's like. It takes conditioning. Yeah, it does. Your lungs. And they go right back to jokes.

Yo, what I'm saying, you'll be able to me. No, let them get a breather. What I'm saying is that, let me get it together now. The first time you do that shit, fine. The fifth time you do that shit, fine. But at our big age,

we know that if we have money and we show love and presents, we fuck them, we stay in the same house for months at the time, but we know what they're going to expect. Yes. And at some point, we can't act like we don't. now she should know that too

that's the naive part but that don't let us off the hook that's part of the game it's not it's his recipe but that's what it's got to be I don't know that's my move I know everybody

who's called a 52 fakeout that ain't my move that's not my move but that's your move too no it's not I never had a hundred mil and I had a hundred million dollars at 37 years old It's the same move.

Here's the problem. And close it for me, here's the problem. I feel like we do a disservice to the people coming up when we try to not hold people accountable. And accountable part is not only Clay is Megan as well. Patterns are important. And when you're in a situation like that, sometimes you just, people should know what love bombing is.

Love bombing is a real thing. You guys like to promote these new words and these new theories and shit like that. That's a real thing. And niggas do it. You know Mark that niggas do it. I love bombed. Nigga, you vocally bombed. Nigel, you know what you do.

Hey, that looks nice today. Dr. Care. You know what you do, my name. You know the game. So what I'm saying is that I get what. That's why I'm asking, do you really mean this from your heart as a man? Do you, or you're just saying, yo, I'm older now.

So I look at things different because you, out of old people should know the game. You know it. You know what a nigga pretending. It was all pretend. Cool. Nigger wasn't serious. Nick, we're doing this for the camera.

You outside with me. You Meg. but he has a phone. He has a phone. He has a phone. Hold on. That's what I think happened. Yo.

Listen, he has a phone and access to the internet like we all do. He saw all the things like we all do. I hate the word love. And niggas put that in their mind. When we go into a situation, fuck up with a girl that fuck with a lot of nakes not saying this is a situation.

We have something in our mind as men. Bro, how do we, this is what I hate. Right? I hate the phrase love bomb. I could have been feeling you. That's not love bombing though. I could have been sincerely. feeling you. Yeah.

But I was in Houston for the weekend. It didn't last. That's what I think happened. Honestly, that's what I think happened. And so now when he gets caught, I don't think he doesn't like her. Let's say he gets caught cheating two or three times. Let's say. We're going to throw it out there now.

Let's say he gets caught cheating two or three times. And then for him to go to the girl that he's now seeing and say, hey, I have a problem. I don't think I could be monogamous. That might be down. What do we say to that? That's growth. and I'm with you. I would say two things.

One, to her, I would say don't go to Instagram with that. Right? Because that eliminates any, some of that has ego and emotion and some of that way ends up happening is you have no chance to your point of how,

you might want that. You might decide that that's okay. But if you instantly go to social media with it, you can't come back. You destroy that because now you've affected him. You've created a media thing. You've fucked up the Broadway shit, you know, whatever.

It's a bad choice. That's the part on her. That's the accountability flip that I think she has to have around how to do this. She has every right to do that. I just think as an old head, I would say... And that's where I just try to have a little grace for Meg, because maybe she don't have nobody to run to.

No, she doesn't. And a lot of people are grown but emotionally underdeveloped. True. Or they don't have good relationship experience. That's why, again, when I watch people watch her, like my daughter who's not as much of fan anymore, but I'm like, I don't want people to think this is the way to move a relationship. But for him, I'm like, cool.

He has a right to bow out and say, you know what? I can't do this. I tried. I'm failing at it. Let me step back. I'm cool with that. But people, I'm just saying, people still have a right to feel

away, and by people, I don't mean hotties, I mean Meg. People have a right to feel a way about the breach of trust. And you can't use the, for me, what, you know, this is what rich famous basketball players do, so, like, what the fuck you think what I was going to do. It's not untrue.

But it doesn't, it doesn't, I mean, if a police was beating the shit out of us right there, they think, this is what police do. Like, we wouldn't be like... Stop it more. No, no, I'm taking... It's a horrible analysis. No, it's a perfect example. What I'm saying is. No, it is not more. Let me watch the bad example.

Because every... Do you really want me to tell you? Yeah, tell me. I could be wrong. Or this should be making me look horrible. Because most wealthy, rich, handsome niggas cheating. Most police forces beat people up. No, you're not.

That's not true. That's not a huge number of police that are just every cop out here. And I don't think every dude is out here fucking. It's fucking on a girl. You took away some attributes. You took away some descriptives. I'm sorry. Dudes like that.

Rich, famous, handsome dudes like that. I don't think they're all doing that. Young, rich, famous, handsome niggas. are cheating. They're more NBA niggas cheating than there are cops. Sure. It's not a perfect parallel. I'll stand down on the comparison

because I don't want to get distracted by that. My point is if somebody fucks us up even though we've long had an expectation or if somebody does something bad to us, even though we had a reasonable expectation that they might do it or there's a good chance they would do it, we have a right to say to the person

well, this isn't shocking to me, but you still shouldn't have done it. That's all I'm saying. And so I feel like some of this Meg conversation, people keep picking these buckets. It's either fuck Megan, she's a whore, I never said that No one up here thinks that

I think you and I are damn just saying the same thing I'm frustrated with the social media conversation which are either people ignoring Clay and calling Megal and pulling out her body count from 2000 whatever which to me is ridiculous Same. You know what I'm doing with any of this I agree. Or it's people ignoring it's people

damn near trying to what's the word when you expose people's information and all that shit Docs. Dachs. Because damn there docks and clay and certainly attacking clay He has a right to be criticized if what they're saying is true. I think people should just mind their business. But it's hard to do when Meg puts it out.

That's what I was about to say. I don't think he has a right to be criticized. I think whatever he did in his relationship should be his business with his significant other. That's what I said hotties and not Meg. Or rather, Meg and not the hotties should be upset. I don't, as a Megan fan shouldn't be up there. Oh, she should be able to criticize. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

If she wants to publicly do it even though I don't like it, that's her business. But you know what it's going to do to the fans. A lot of these women, that's part of the coping. When shit goes left, let me go get the Internet on my side. And it ain't just famous women like, you see regular chicks do it. How did they break up with a baller? I seen one this weekend. They go to the gram just to get everybody.

I see your name's everywhere from back in the day. Huh? What you said? I like your shirt. Oh, thank you. I figured. I wanted to be you. Thank you.

I can't see it. Say perhaps. Say perhaps the drugs. Depending on the drugs, obviously. You did that's mature? Yeah. If you often, yeah, I think there's drugs people should take. Did you give him the wrong message, sir?

No, I think it's okay. I think healthy grown adults who watch this show, especially the 18 to 35 demo. Welcome to do marijuana. I don't think they should have. If it's a little in your state. You're funny. Mark is funny, and close it for me.

Mark is funny with this whole, let's hold Clay accountable thing. Because again, her, not us. Oh. Again, I don't think the fans, it's not our business. Oh, okay. That's why I don't like the fact that she puts it in our,

in front of it because now we got to, now it is. Now we got to have opinions on the shit. I want Meg to take better care herself. Please do. There you go. Like, I'm not, this is, my take is not pro-Clay. My take is I want Meg to love on herself more and just pick up the cues a little better and just get more information and get more experience. And she's been through a lot.

I understand it. But the people that are watching publicly have seen her miss cues almost in every one of the relationships that have been made public. So I just want to take better care of herself. It's not funny to me. I'm praying for you. I'm sure if she's indeed devastated, then I know what that feels like. And don't throw away that gig.

It sounds like a good gig. The Broadway gig. You might not be able to be your best. She's not her best self right now. Can't put your best foot forward. Some breakups that are out of work for a little bit. I got to go gather myself. Gather your guts.

Well, what's the worst you've ever been? I know we've got to the prospect. What's the worst situation? What's the worst you've ever felt after a few breakups? I've had different variations. Like can't work bad? Yeah. Yeah.

I used to be tucking you in. Oh. Wait, before you broke up? When did you talk about? You were playing house. I did. You're my man. What relationship was that?

The one where after we broke up, you was rubbing her feet in the pool. I never touched you. You made that tucking look a little different. No worry. It's going to be okay, Joe. I'll be right back. Stay right here. I talk about me and sin break up all the time when I came off tour and my whole house was cleared of family stuff and pictures and baby shit.

That one, that one hurt. I had a few that hurt. I had a few that hurt. You told me, the first time we met, I asked you why you left the neighborhood you were living in. I was asking because I was trying to move there. And you were like, my family left me. and like this was like not that long you know this was not right after it happened

and I saw it look like you still have I mean obviously you're over it but like there's a way that that shit breakups even from people you're over that shit still holds on like you still hold on to that shit forever sitting left took the baby and both my dogs died oh my god even hearing you now it's like it's a yeah yeah them shit we all done had them and that house is biggest shit big ass you're just in this dumb ass you're in his dumb ass hollow house Quiet as hell.

Yeah. Yeah. Anyway. On that bright note. Yeah. Meg, we ruling for you, Mae. Indeed. You'll get it right, girl.

And if you happen to be with another NBA player, don't. Just slow down. Get the information for yourself before it's published. Don't date another. Yeah. No, you can't say that. Yes, you can.

You can't. Mag's a hot girl. She likes to have some fun. She doesn't go for that. That's the problem, though. You put out. this image of being this hot girl. You put out this image of not giving a fuck.

I'm a savage. Yeah. Da-da-da. All the other shit. You putting that shit out into the universe. And meeting savages. And when you meet another savage, then you want to be the... But she thought she got Grand Hill.

No, I'm with you. They thought she got... You know what they did. You're right. She thought she got Gran Hill. Yeah. That's her bad. Yeah.

That is her bad. But so if Grand Hill had popped up with three badies, y'all have been like, oh, you should have known? Like, no, we thought he's a good digger. No, Gran Hill been with Tamia since anybody was born. I'm talking. No, not just that. I'm talking about back in the 90s.

No, nigga. Gray Hill's a very good comp. Clay Thompson, that's a very, yes, he is. He's a son of an NFL player. He's a son of an NFL player. Pro money. The nigga mother was. I'm talking about how they move around.

Oh, no. Oh, yeah, no, no, no. That's what I was. Hillary Clinton. Like Grant Hill comes from a family structure, as does Clay Thompson. Yeah. Today ain't yester year, nigga. Man, don't go public with these niggers, girl.

That's all. That's the NBA no more. Don't go public. Yeah, man, yeah, don't go public with you, that's it. That's it. Just hoard the information for yourself when you like one, cherish it, guarded, fucking treat it like a secret. And then you being you, when you start publicly posting these niggers, all that is is a frenzy to anybody else to try to get to your nigger. Yeah.

Yeah. We haven't learned that? Yeah. That's true, too. And you, you. Like, I don't know how high or low your self-love game is, but don't be used in that way. You are a PR stunt for some of these niggas. Yeah.

Prize bid, you're killing? I've been doing prospects for three weeks and I'm looking at my numbers here. Look at that flip. That's it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Nice, nice. That's nice.

A little five-digit number. You're doing all right. Yeah, to the fans out there that thought Mark was lying. Take you back. Still killing them. Yo, listen, are these the Pistons y'all wanted me to be concerned with?

That series is a mess. No, that's not. It's a good series. Are these the fucking Angel Reese is posting every Jalen Duran lowlight on her Instagram? That being her ex and him losing. See? This is hilarious. See?

This is absolutely hilarious. I got no Angel Reese commentary. The Pistons are down three to one. They lost to the eighth seed magic the other night. Magic are tougher than people thought. Wait, and I said that to you, right? Before the playoffs started. And you scoffed.

They're very hot, cold. I did scoff. And they match up well with the Pistons. The Pistons can't really bully them. The Pistons be getting off on bullying niggers. Like, y'all, y'all, y'all soft. So they be bullying y'all. You can't do that with Banchero on them.

They're not with that shit. You're not doing that to us. When I saw the Magic player at the Garden this year in a game that I think we lost, I want to say I came in here and said, yo, them dudes are big. Yeah. That's a big, physical. team and you even bigger and more physical when I'm playing my girl's ex. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. So, hey, I ain't got a call from Jared Jack in a while, but. I was thinking about him. I thought maybe his phone broke or something. Yeah, I ain't got a call. And that one hurt. That lost the other night hurt too much for me to text him with the key, Kiki.

You got to. I don't do that. Not with his gig. He works with the pistons. I don't want to lose his job, but he definitely called you trolling last year. That was after the series. That's true. That's fair.

Yeah. When it's over, can we call? Yeah, when it's over, we can go. But that's real hardy campaign that Piston fans are going. They won 60 games.

They won 60 games this year. They're going through it over there. So I ain't even going to pal on. What else is going on? What else is going on? Well, the second biggest news in the world. Yeah, let's say. That is a damn change.

That's kind of crazy. Fuck around. Stop my game for that bullshit. Bro, I had to. find the little alternate. I was a random shit. I got my prize picks going on. They pulled a game to ESPN,

but I've never heard a basketball game on television without commentators. Oh, yeah. So all you heard was the live audience of a basketball game on TV. The shit was mad weird. I had a party. I had 50-something people in my house

all watching the fucking game and now Trump's mugs on the TV. Now he's in the tucks just 20 minutes. What the fuck is this? For those that don't know, the White House Correspondents dinner was this past weekend in D.C. It's a great event. It's like the, they call it

nerd prom. It's where all the journalists get together. They see each other. They hobnob. And then the president I was invited. Take that. I was invited. I just didn't go. Turns out, I made a good choice. You damn right.

Yeah, word. Glad I didn't have child care. And the president usually speaks. He gets roasted by people and then they wrote and he kind of does his little clap back lately Donald Trump hasn't done it. He's kind of the first president in a long time

to not regularly participate in it. But this year, for the first time, in a long time, he's there. He participated. So did an active shooter. And so there was a shooting scare at this thing, a guy from the West Coast, black guy, right?

He looked black. He looked like a California black. He came and he actually ended up shooting a Secret Service agent who was wearing a vest. So fortunately, he's okay. but he came there with the express intent of shooting the president. He made a manifesto that we've had the opportunity to read. I don't know if y'all have had the chance to see it yet,

where he wrote out what his plan was. And this is a guy with degrees from Caltech, and he's sort of a teacher of sorts. He's a teacher, right? Yeah. He's not your traditional act, you know, kind of crazy shoot the president person, but he was there.

He was in the mix. Donald Trump was whisked to safety after JD Vance. and some other people and it's raised some questions across the board but you know the president was alive. One last piece after that to Parks's point the president once he was taking the

safety gave a press conference where he made a couple jokes about it and he also mentioned this is why I needed to build that ballroom. Yeah? I didn't understand that. I didn't understand that part. I'm glad that everyone's safe. Are you? Yeah, I am. I don't think that political

violence is a healthy place for us to live Oh, now everybody was being mature. No, I'm mature about this part. I also think that it was, it looks sketchy to me. When all the people were underneath their fucking tables doing selfie videos, this is weird to me. That's the world we in, though. Is it?

Everybody's going to make content, no matter what. In a shootout, potentially? Sadly, yes. You didn't see a homeboy stay there and eat? Now, that was my man. He was like... Yeah, I fuck with him. Yo, I'm from New York.

I heard sorry. I was thinking what you're talking about. I just like wasn't your birthday party. All the lobster I ate. Like, if they were shooting at your birthday party, I'm a stay. This rosting pasta is killing. I ate like 74 of the things. Fuck the shit.

He didn't eat all the lobster. I embarrassed everybody at that table. If they shoot a shot, I wouldn't care. That is crazy. It was a little sketchy. These niggas will not just go watch. Olympus has fallen. What's the other one?

It's by four. London is all of them. London is falling. There's a, but what's the Jamie Foxx? Fox War. White House, White House, White House Down. White House down. White House down. There's some movies you could go see. Like, in the movies, when niggas be trying to kill the president, that shit be such a plan. It'd be so. And they didn't put it in their Gmail. Right. Like, that's weird.

It'd be so detailed and coordinated and they worked on it for years. And now here we go. These niggas have to be the worst assassination group in the world. It's like the back pages assassination. Yeah, it's a third one. Where y'all getting y'all killers from? For real, because then they put the footage out. Of dude running by all the secret service agents. They're the worst secret service, too.

Yeah, they was a mess. That video made me want to try to run by him. Go ahead. It did. Me, they'll shoot. For sure. Me, you're a little darker, the homeboy. You know, I'm a little darker.

You know, me they'll shoot. But that's why I look funny to you? Because of shit like that, you just feel like it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a hopes. I don't know. But it seems weird to me. It's fishy. It's weird. Y'all can't find somebody to connect.

I'm tired of the manifest those. And not, they should. No, yeah, I'm not, I don't want that at all. Yeah. I don't want that at all. Really? Yes. Can't say.

I'm not, I don't wish death on people, Mark. I don't wish death on anybody. I don't root for people to die either. I don't root for people to die either. So why you keep saying really every time? But I'm not going to pretend that I'm relieved when I hear Donald Trump got shot at and they missed. Oh, that's nasty. It's nasty. Fine. I don't give a fuck.

I'm being honest with you. There's a whole lot of people when they heard somebody shot the president and they go he missed. A lot of people at home went, damn. Or he had one job. But why? Play the plan out. He died and what? Exactly.

J.D. Vance becomes president. Exactly. Yeah. I'm not saying that's, let me be clear. I'm not saying political violence is the solution. But a president who is. overseeing this much death and destruction, I think there are a lot of people who would not

shed a tear. Oh, that's fair. Oh, I understand that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't root for it. I don't want it to happen. I would invest my own tax or your tax dollars into heightened secret service to make sure no one gets killed. I'm with all that. But once the music starts,

you know what I'm saying? I can't pretend that I'm sitting there like, please don't kill the president. Please don't kill the president. Whereas every other previous president, I did feel a lot more sympathy for it. Democrat or Republican. But Donald Trump is unique. Also, most presidents, they tried to kill this motherfucker three times.

There's a reason. I'm not saying it's okay. But it's a reason. People don't just walk around trying to shoot everything. Most people just vote. This motherfucker fucking three times they tried to shoot him. That should tell you something.

Most people just vote. This voting ain't going to get it done. Right. They're like, we can't wait that long. he's fuck that oh man it's crazy yeah no I can't I can't uh

yeah I don't yeah no I can't do that I just can't it's not it's not in me it's not it's not I think it's also a horrible precedent set where if we don't like the guy

that we shoot him like that's not that's not good again I apport it's the same thing I feel but I also don't believe that this shit is all the way real or at least all of them

or all the way it seems fucking weird and it seems it always seems to come at a moment where he needs some public sympathy and a distraction and a distraction

it's all weird to me I don't believe that these people have enough skills to get guns past professionals that too the security being this lax is all of that

maybe security don't fuck but we always leave this manifesto or the notes we had all this enough skill to get this shit done but we ain't have enough skill to burn the paper right come on my nigga

I'm just not a fan of that which just lays out the plan for all all of the news media outlets. Look, he wrote it right here on page three that he's going. I'm just not a fan of that. I just, I'm not a fan of that. It seems weird.

I have more faith in the special black ops team. Like, who did they hire? Yeah. I just don't get it. And you watch enough docs to see niggas really be like, yo, we're going to come through the back door. We ain't going to go through the front door. I ain't Arnold Schwarzenegger, I ain't Neo.

Like, yo, dog, this shit got a... I also watch enough shows where that nigger guard in the front door know you can ready come through the front door. Yeah, so he lacks Or they don't fuck with him I mean Again, if I wanted to shoot Joe I'd be like

Not that I would do that But the first thought would be I could get to that driver I would just tell them all the jokes you say about him How often do you pray brother? You can get to him if you just jog next to the party And green him with it to land Yeah

Tap the gun Roll the window down He's not doing it at eight miles out? Okay. He stouted in every yellow light. That's what I'm saying, though. I'm not convinced as a conspiracy, but this is the closest I've ever been to thinking it was bullshit.

Because to me, if you try to kill me twice, my security should be extra good, not extra last. No, no, no, not just that. We're in the middle of a war. We're in the middle of a war that a lot of people are not fond of. Yeah, like I think his security should be at an all-time high. And once there's some shots fired and Secret Service jump on the president, shouldn't they, like, get you out of there?

We shouldn't see him no more, right? Yeah, probably not. He was standing up right on the side over there right at the curtain. No, and then gave a speech. Like, this is a matter of national security. Remember when they shot his ear and he stood up and put this? Protocol, we're getting you down below ground. Exactly.

And you're not going to be coming out for the rest of the day. No, I'm with you. It's the United States is a, uh, uh, uh, best interest is at stake at this point. Right, but he's the commander. He could say, my nigga, we don't know if that person was working alone.

We don't know if he was in concert with a whole bunch of other people. You're not coming back out. I can see Trump saying fuck the protocol. This is my moment. You're not coming back out in 20 minutes to eat no fucking sirloin. Fuck out of here.

No, that's fake. Sirloin. No, it's not happening, bro. I'm dead at serious. Like, that's not going to happen. Got you. It's not happening. And honestly,

I, again, maybe I'm just a pussy. I'm tired of seeing people shot and killed right in front of me. I'm tired of that. It's enough. I'm tired of it is. I'm tired of seeing the door. Yeah. You just scroll the timeline.

That's all of these shit, whether you like the person or dislike the person that is being a, that the attempt is made on. Like when the Charlie Kirk shit happened, I ain't in none of that shit. But damn. Like, goddamn. Yeah. That was awful. That's why I'm shocked you watching news. Yeah.

That shit is crazy. I know. You watch the news. They bugging in Brooklyn. They're bugging in Brooklyn. They bugging in the bro. I got to know what these little 14. Killed the guy at the bodega.

Yeah, these little gang members. I got to watch the news. I saw that one. The bodega went. They killed the bodega. They shut down the A train for mad long. They shot somebody on the train, bro. 15 year old.

They're saying they, but what the news ain't saying is that it's all gang. It's all gang. And actually, the news is saying that sometimes. But with the train one, I didn't hear that. No, they said that. That was this morning. Rest in peace. after that kid.

Yeah, we're in the bodega owner, I believe it was, the Lowery Side, right? Yeah. That's awful. I don't want to see that. And again, thank God everyone's safe from the Washington show.

Even though I have my theories about it. I'm glad that everyone's glad everybody's safe, especially the innocent people. There's another story that's connected to this, and that's Jimmy Kimmel. You know, he gave his own kind of correspondence, he did his own bit.

This is before the shooting that he recorded this. It's important to be. Two days before. Two days before. He made a remark. He said to the first lady, you have the glow of an expected widow. Of an expectant widow.

That's a good fucking joke. That's a good joke. He was cracking on saying Donald Trump looks sickly and ill like he's ready to go. Right. And she don't like him. That combo of the running joke is she don't really fuck with him. She don't like him. And he's about to die.

To me, that's a good joke. If it's Biden, that's funny. Whoever. Whoever is funny. anime and her rebellions. Right. Exactly. But the right has now spun this to make it seem as if...

He plotted it? Or at least he was advocating for political violence. And that this is the proof because right after he says it, somebody comes and tries to shoot the president. That's the argument. Melania Trump then goes forward and says he should be fired, demands his firing, demands ABC fires him. And then the president himself comes forward later and says the same thing.

Was the joke in bounds? Was the joke out of bounds? Should he be fired in light of the law? of what happened. What do y'all make of it? No. He shouldn't be fired. No, he shouldn't be fired, but there's an attack on all late night, and you know that the right side is watching

all monologues and everything said. There's the alert. When you say something, the alert goes off. It gets sent to people. You've got to know that by now. Shit, I'm mad at what they did to Ben Stiller. Yeah, that was crazy. Jimmy Kimball is one thing. But Ben Stiller, the Knicks won the game, and he said,

and this was game four. We were threatened to go down 3-1, but we blew him out. And he said, got it done. And the Trump shit happened. And Trump and the right and all of those people thought that Ben Stiller was talking about the shooting and rooting them on. Like, got it done. It's like we didn't get it done.

Bro, that's some narcissistic shit. Yes. Well, you just think that everything is about you and the whole fucking world just revolves around you. My thing with the Jimmy Kimmel shit is, cool, let's say it's inappropriate. I'm going to rock with it. Let's say it's inappropriate. Yeah. The president of the free world says worse shit than a nighttime comedian correspondent.

So now we're going to hold somebody to a higher standard. I think we should hold the president of the United States to a higher standard than we holding a fucking nighttime TV show host. And Trump, if you're watching late night TV, there should be a reasonable expectation that you'll hear a joke like that. Yeah. What are we talking about? And to your point, is, I remember when Nancy Pelosi's husband was assaulted,

Trump made jokes. Bro, the shit is not, he's like a kid, bro. So my thing, if it's good for the goose, again. You know he don't play by them rules. Yeah. I could do it. You can't. You can't do it to me.

This shit is crazy, bro. And I'm not saying all late night posts would make that joke. A lot of them. A bunch of them would. A bunch of them, bro. If you're watching the show. Y'all stop entertaining this, nigga. Y'all don't even see what this did.

Yeah. Yeah, look at your man. Come on. Come on. Where we are? Flip had a story he wanted to talk about. What story? Yo, hold up.

Don't intro flip story like that. What story you don't? Fuckin' roll with you, man. Flip had a story he wanted to talk about. I'm digging up on my man. He came in with a phone with a list of stories. They're on the board right there, the last four. And I thought since we were talking about news and a good segue would be the Fox 5 hot mic

because I think it's funny. I don't know the story, but I assumed it was funny. Yeah, man. Thank you. Don't ever introduce me like that again, nigga. I'm trying to get you up, bro. It's just my throat. Pause.

But, uh, that's about your fourth flagrant this show. Fox Vop anchor Jimmy Fiaia, um, he was just basically criticizing, um, what happened at the White House. Oh,

so saying that it was a hoax. Um, they said he had two random girls guard in the door. Secret service. It was hollowed out. It looked like a setup. You know, he was just saying stuff like that.

Like, And they called him on a hot mic saying all that? Yeah, yeah. Apparently everything was supposed to be off and he was on the mic saying. Look at that. Two random girls. You got this guy running through the yard. So you just talk a shit. Oh, okay.

I love that. There's nothing funnier than watching reporters beat themselves before the camera go live. Oh, yeah. Then they turn it on. Yeah. When I worked at Fox News, that used to be the funniest shit. My fucking splash or some water. They'd be like, this some bullshit.

Oh, pardon me. Like. In other news. Speaking of reporters, congratulations to Speedy. Let me hit the round. Oh, yeah. Congratulations. Thank you.

Salute. He's been killed it. He's left his job. He's leaving his long tenured gig at a complex. Ten plus years. To go independent. To go independent, pursue the things that he wants to pursue,

go on his own. It's a big deal. He was really important and complex. So talented. Yeah, extremely talented. Real good interview. A real good guy. Real good guy.

So Speedy, we're rooting for you. Congratulations. I'm ruled for any creator that is on some, you know what, it's time for me. me to go out there and hunt my own food type shit. I'm rooting for you. Go speedy. It's a good time of year to do that too. Summertime's a good time to just get out of here. Just go on your own, build your own independence.

Yeah, yeah. Especially if contracts up. To anybody. Mark, you know, we don't talk about contracts on air. Not our contract. Some of us don't kiss ass or be buddy buddy buddy, buddy not on that couch. With the 50, with the co-owner to get more, you know what I'm saying? Some of those don't do that.

No. Do you think to that? You gotta stand on your own, boy. Can I ask you a question? And all y'all can answer. Do you think that works with me? Like, if somebody is kissing ass, does it work? Does it come with a-

Yes. Okay. Well, not your ass, probably Ian's. One of your asses need to be kissed. I think what works for, I'm being funny. What works for y'all is showing the initiative and work. If a nigger is showing initiative and working and putting his best for it, I think that works.

I think that, you know, I think that, but I don't know, it could be ass-k kissing. A nigg could be working, by working, could be kissing ass. by working through work. Okay. Just asking. To me.

Kiss ass through work. Like doing a good job at working. No. That's what I want to do. No, that's not what I mean. It's going to sound crazy, but just being extra. I mean, work is work. Work is good.

And you're supposed to want to work and put your best foot forward anywhere you go. But if I feel like some people, and it's not to anybody up here. Not to Mark. Not to Mark. No, no, not to be clear.

It's not to anybody else. Because I was one of the people. that went above and beyond at one point. I feel like some people that go above and beyond, it could be looking like as kissing ass. Did you do it? Some people just take pride in the job. What was the reason why you wouldn't above and beyond?

Huh? What was the reason beyond you going above and beyond? Yeah, look at me. You don't think you go above and beyond still? No. Not anymore. But when you were going above and beyond, what were you doing? Well, I can see how you say it was kissing ass.

I didn't say a thing. If somebody said, you was kissing ass by trying to go above and beyond and I can see somebody say Flip you're kissing ass You know some people, again, nobody up here But some people just take pride Of doing a good job Yeah

And they see it as its own reward I'm not being funny Like some people No you're right No you're right No you're 100% right Just for a topic and talk of shit Yeah yeah I know

Come on let's have our Vlad Airy Spears fight Y'all keep finding things To talk about To make me be on Vlad's side Can somebody explain it to me Because this one I didn't really get in the mix with Like I did with the Boosie asked Vlad for more money

They had their back and forth I've played it for y'all That one I know Boosie wanted to go from 20 to 25 or 25 to 35 or 40, whatever the numbers was. They had their back and forth, which is warranted because Boosie is a fucking mega star for Vlad, and Vlad is the business owner. Typical conversation there. According to Vlad, Aerie Spears pops up a few days later saying,

Yeah, big dog. In light of your Boosie conversation, I need more money. Because if you're willing to give Boosey 25, then I need more money and you might have been giving me 6,000 and some Doritos now I need So Vlad said initially he was on some

Harry Spears Get the fuck out of here with that But he thought about it He wanted to be professional So he hit Ari Spears And he was like Yo, I'll go look at your numbers Even though he knew it wasn't

any Winnie Bussey's numbers I'll go look at your numbers See what's going on And then later on let's have a conversation about it In Vlad's story he hit him later said, hey, I'm home, I reviewed everything and I'm ready to talk about it. Do you have a minute? And Aery Spiers

dubbed him and hit him back like yeah, I'll talk about it whenever at some point. So then Vlad was like, all right, fuck you, nigga. Not the nigga part, but you know what I'm saying. Yeah. Yes, that's the end. That's it.

I don't see I don't see nothing wrong there on Black Park. Me either. Harry Spitz feels like, yo, I does some of your best interview on your platform. Everybody left. Lord Jamar left.

Bootsie left. Yeo left. That's what he said. And he said, everybody left. I'm the last man standing. And I feel that you should give me more money because I'm just here riding with you. And what you might have did based on everybody else leaving is just an assumption, is leveraged yourself or thought you had more leverage than you did.

And so because you think that everybody else left, now that makes you more valuable until you can ask for X. but the part we met like Vlad said I went over everything let's have a conversation and you dubbed it yeah that's what kind of ends to me like you get what I'm saying okay

he ain't like he presented an offer and you felt like you were disrespected by the offer or something he just said I I took into consideration what you said I rang your numbers when can we talk you're the one that you're the one that opened this conversation

of wanting to talk and even that was naive Eric Spears, you're not on the Pay Me More People list I mean He might think he is now though That's why I'm talking to him But you never know what he got

No no wait wait wait You never know what this nigga was getting That's true So now you heard you paying somebody 25K And I did it for $2,500 And I did it for $2,500 In two seconds

Y'all jump in with whatever you all thought So I'm shit on Harry Spears I'm always okay with that I don't know what the fuck We thought about Ari Spears You're not on those You're not, you on the list of people that should be happy to get whatever crumbs they get in.

Your name is cold as hell, especially since that, uh, Tiffany had his shit that we don't really talk about no more. You coldest could be. You ain't, you ain't, you don't have leverage, beverage, or nothing else that rhymes with fucking leverage. Ah, picking up the phone, hey, I need more money. Not you, Harry Spears. Sorry. The mad TV days, long gone. nigga, you ain't got Blistex money in your pocket.

He crushed the outer side of his face looking all stupid. You got to look in the mirror. Before people ask for more money, they got to look at themselves. And say what? Look, don't say nothing. Find the mirror. Stare. Gaze.

Have an honest assessment about what you see. And then decide if you want to move forward with asking for more money. asking for more money can get real tricky it could go from it can go quickly to oh there's no money because glad I'm going to fire him Vlad ain't going to do nothing to fire this nigga whenever the time C-fit

whenever the contract run out it all that's over with then what's happening with Ari Spears where's Airy Spears where's Airy Spears leverage is a funny thing my nigga it is it is he don't have none I know I don't I don't know if he he don't I'm telling you he don't

but I'm telling him Ari Spears if you watch If you know Ari Spears out there, send this clip to him. Eric Spears, you don't have leverage. I support workers getting what they deserve, and I support people not getting their labor exploited. In this situation, the exploitation of the labor depends on what the value is you're earning for the company. I don't know the numbers. But just doing a quick YouTube search, just looking at the raw data,

looking at the raw data, it's very clear he shouldn't be getting boozy money. I'm not sure he should be getting Lord Jamar money. Again, no disrespect to none of them. I'm talking about just in terms of the numbers. Yeah, but now if they're gone, you don't get none of them. You don't have no Lord Jamar. You don't have no Boosie. That's not how you two work.

Like, if somebody, I'm with you, like in certain things, right? Like, if I'm the only dude on the team and now I got to put up 30 more shots, that's different. But the people who want to see a Boose interview, don't say, you know what? I'll just watch Harry Spears. You know what I'm saying? So, like, I don't know that because they're gone that suddenly all these. new views are going to come Erie Spears's way. So I don't, and if they do, he should get the money.

I'm not hating on him. I'm not saying he shouldn't get the money. They're not coming to Erie Spears as well. Of course not. But if you're one of Ladd's... That should be a reasonable expectation. If you want to Vlad's guys and all his guys left and you sticking around, you're thinking that your compensation could be higher. And a combination of things.

Like you said, yo, what if I was getting $2,500 before? Right. getting a thousand. Well, whatever it was. First, I found out you paying this and they all gone? Did. Would you mean that freeze up?

Something. See, for me, there's two different conversations. Does he deserve more? Maybe. I don't know what he makes. He could absolutely deserve more than he's getting. And I want him to get everything he deserves. I'm just saying, just because the nigger that's getting $40,000

and the pop left don't mean suddenly you getting some of that 40. You step into that. There's a huge, that's a huge misconception on the business owner side to say, to think, to assume that because everyone left, it puts you in a position to be paid more. On the business side, everybody leaving is a chance to wipe it all clear. Build this from scratch differently.

Cut some overhead, maybe get more talent for less, like try to do it a little different. That ain't let me pay the last nigga that's here all this money. And now, hell, though. Harry Spears, you don't bump your fucking head somewhere. Sorry. And I'm rooting for you to get paid. He's a funny comic.

So stand-up is always there. I'm not, he ain't, he ain't just done. Amazing impressionist. Yeah, he's very talented. Amazing. I ain't hating on him. I just, you know. Speaking of funny stand-ups, I did watch Nikki Glazer on YouTube.

I didn't get to. I didn't get to. I didn't get to. I didn't get to. I didn't. Yeah, I didn't get to. I watched it. What I did watch was that, Hawk Hogan, Doc.

I watched it too. I could kill him, niggas. Why? She was ass. I was about to watch the other night. Yeah, I was about to watch it. It was great, but they breached over what I was there for. What was that?

The niggins stuff? Yes. Okay. And the pool guy. I was there for the dirt. I was there for the pool guy, the cheating, the scandal, the salaciousness. Wendy Williams shit. Yeah.

Yeah. That's what I was there for. And they gave me all his greatness. They rushed it quick. It was four episodes. So they gave me his introduction, his struggles, how he saved the shit, Mr. T, fucking all of this shit. And then in the fourth episode for 10 minutes, not even 10 minutes.

they said, well, also. Yeah, said something. So it was a little too celebratory of Hulk. Yeah, it just didn't tell a full story. It didn't tell a full story. You got the wife there. You got Hulk there. You have these people talking.

No way I'm thinking that y'all not about to tell me the story. And then they let Hulk gloss over for a second. Yeah, I made some bad decisions. I was in, I was heated one time. I was overwhelmed. And one time I said some shit. Oh, no, no, no, it didn't go like that. It didn't go like that.

It didn't go like that. It did not go like that. So that was the disappointing part of the Hulk Hogan dog. But it was. Well put together. Yeah. It was. It was very well put together.

Boy, did they shit on Ultimate Warriors whole existence. They killed that. This was the first time in my life that I ever heard other wrestlers come clean about, like, the truth about that whole going from Hulk Hogan to go into the Ultimate Warrior. He was terrible. They said he was horrible. They knew he wasn't going to work. they said he was really bad no personality

dull as a doorknob couldn't sell anything and then they started showing the footage and I was a kid right so I just remember he wasn't the most vocal they even showed them having to like shoot the promos over and over and over

he keeps fucking up like oh it's running back do it again do it again he's not a good wrestler he wasn't a good personality he wasn't a good wrestler that's what they were in he couldn't do it

to go from that somebody as boyish Hulk Hogan had the WWF at its peak. Yeah. He changed the game. Yeah, like them niggas had dolls and a cartoon on Saturday.

They had all of that shit. You had all that shit. But as I was watching the Hulk shit, because then they went from how bad the Ultimate Warrior was, the thing was, who's going to be the face and who's going to, you know, Hulk, we're trying to retire him and move on.

So they moved on. Actually, Vince said, fuck you, Hulk. I'm moving on to Ultimate Warrior. And then from Ultimate Warrior, it was Brett Hart. Yeah. I didn't realize. that thing. I had no,

I didn't know that. I forgot. That shit Hulk Hogan did to Brett Hart is fucked up. They glossed over that one too. They did. They glossed over that one too. What he did?

He was waiting around to take the championship. Yeah. WrestleMania 9 at Caesar's Palace. Word. He threw his weight around. Brett Hart was the next guy they were going to to build around. He had some momentum.

He was coming off Ultimate Warriors. So he was attractive, successful to grow up. He could talk. He had all the flair. And then Hulk want to come back after everybody's offensive. him like, yo, Brett never going to work. He's going to work with him.

He blackballed him, basically. He threw his weight around. But even in a match, he rigged the fight. Yeah, Brett was the champion. He had him fighting Yoko Zuna. He lost on some bullshit. And then had it seem like, you know,

Brett was like, yo, go avenge me, go avenge me. Like, because Hogan came out to help his man's. And Hogan's, and Hogan. And Hogan's the championship. And now he's the champion. And now he's the champion. And it was like, it was just a bullshit way to basically take the belt off of Brett and put it back on home.

No, that was shit. It was very shady. That was really, really, really shady. It was. It was bad. Anyway, I'm waiting for Brerhardt to tell his... Yeah, he talked. Yeah.

No, he talks. Breit Hart is the one, yo. Between that, his brother dying. That and Montreal screw job. I want to hear what he got to say. What is the last thing y'all said? The Montreal screw job. I can't hear you.

The Montreal screw job. I don't know. What happened? That's when... That's when... Brett Hart and Shaw Michaels Ford, Brett was leaving for WCW, but he didn't want to try to take the

Sean Michael and Vince Yeah that's crazy In Montreal, Brett didn't want to lose in Canada Right which made sense Right Fucking Hulk Hogan While we on Netflix shit that Jaws your watch again

If y'all haven't seen Chessmates It's great but untold anything is great. Okay I guess which leads Yeah untold chessmates Okay. Is a good watch It's a really really really good while. It's about chess beef. That's probably some

nerdy fucking. No, it's fine. The man, him of all him in the chess world, and this is not the story I was trying to tell, but real quick. The him of all him in the chess world, apparently you got to go through it. Like, it's a process. There's tournaments. And he's been him, the number one ranked

player in the world for however long. Is this a dude that was hiding the signals in his butt? No, it's about him. Oh, okay. It's about him. Because he rose through the ranks of the chess world quickly. And his arts nemesis was the guy that was really him.

So then he beat him. Oh, is it, Bobby? So then he beat, I don't know none of their names. Just watch chessmates. He beat him through the butt, man. So when he beat the number one chess guy, it was like. He had anal beads in there that was sending signals.

Like somebody was coaching him? Yes, they're doing some, I don't know. Watch it. Yeah. It's good. But anyway, the new untold. I think we talked about it. We did talk about it.

But the new untold is about the what's the fucking Atrarians the people ride the horses Equestrians We didn't get at trarians No, Atrarian is in there

Atrarian is in there It's applied somewhere But yeah, it's about the people They've ride the fucking horses And a cycle story But watch it Untold is good Untold is really, really, really good

If it says untold I just feel like you should watch it I agree I've been catching up on It's old now It's two years old Did y'all see the five families On Netflix when it came out?

Yes Okay okay I just called it We watched that shit three days and I was hooked. That shit is amazing. Yeah, I love mob stuff, so that's another one. And is that the one because I watched so many of them? Were they tried to take over to Philly?

No, that's a different one. Did you see that one? Yeah. Okay, that's a good one, too. Because that's when they got into Joey Merlino and all of that shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. This one was great. Are they telling the same story that we saw already?

It goes a little bit deeper into the New York stuff and a little bit of, you know, a little bit of Jersey since that's the armpit of New York. And- Watch your mouth, Mark. Watch your mouth. Sorry, sorry. What's Philly? It's the own thing. We are own thing.

Like, we're a city where as New Jersey. I've got to claim the whole state that matter. You know what I'm from Philly. You were celebrating when you moved from that, motherfucker. I know that. I won't get shot in the ass no more. I'm too old for the violence. What else needs our attention?

What else needs our attention? There's a breaking story that Parks had. I'm sorry. Oh, my bad. I was saying how far you got on Imperfect Woman. I'm caught up. Oh, yeah. I'm all the way caught up.

I ain't watched the last one. You think that sure he's a dudant-da or are she playing him? Say the last part. Is she playing him? She's setting him up because she went back to the dude that maybe killed the girl. I don't think so. You don't think she's playing him? I think he got a mental hold on her.

But then at the end when they showed dude, was that the husband? No. That was her mother's ex-boyfriend that was molesting her when she was young. Remember at the funeral was a dude standing in the back The very first episode That's not who was at the end Yes, it is? The dude that had the jean jacket on

Yeah, it was so blurry, I couldn't tell He looked like the husband to me That's what I thought it was too He looked like the husband at the end He might be right Because it didn't all the way look like the husband No, it wasn't the husband I think it was the dude

In the very first first episode At the funeral In the back of the church Kerry Washington looks back there And it's a dude standing in the That's the guy that was molesting her In the jean jacket and I think that at the very end

running away from the scene was the dude in the jean jacket I thought that was the husband the whole time oh that dude's little the husband's all the shit they didn't show his whole body I'll go back and look no I thought it's what you're saying

and that changes everything yeah that makes sense and that's why everybody was sitting there like what the fuck it was like yo we got breaking news blah blah blah blah and they show homeboy imperfect woman I'm not mad at any of the plot twist that are yeah yeah I'm not mad at

at it. What else? What else? What else? What else? Do we need our fucking Jim Jones versus the Lowe's? The Lowe's manager? Do we need that? What happened? We can do it. Tell me what happens. So Jim Jones go. Drick drop, man. Where is that drink drop when we need it? With some ice. God damn it. So the long and short of it is Jim Jones was in Lowe's buying some locks. And apparently they were mistagged. The price was been tagged. And the policy of the store is whatever price is on the thing, that's the price you pay. So if they say $78 and it's supposed to be $200 and I pay $78. That's low.

It's everywhere. It's everywhere. It's their policy. It's not a law, but it's their policy. Got it. You know, it's a private business. They can say no, but that's their policy. Well, apparently, Jim got some resistance from the person at the register who didn't want to give them that rate.

And so he asked to speak to the manager. Manja came over. Manager wasn't very helpful either. No, that was it. And mind you, this is before it gets videotaped. That's why I'm saying it like this, because we didn't see this part. When he starts videotaping the people, you know, the woman turns her back. She don't want to be on tape.

The other person's walking away. And Jim is basically saying, y'all not doing good customer service. You're not de-escalating situation. You're talking to me like shit. You're doing this because I'm black. Then they called the police on him. And then the police come. And he's managing it well.

You know, he had his customer service voice on. He was talking to the police. You know what I mean? Explaining them what happened. Ultimately, they gave him the shit at the price. He was correct. Good. But he was like, y'all going to go viral.

And he was videotaping or showing the video of everything that was happening. It was a lot. I have thoughts on it, but I want to know what y'all think. What? Oh, you're playing something? Okay. Decide to take a point itself to tell me what I've done wrong. So tell the people that you're mad that I found these locks for $78.

dollars because y'all put the wrong price you don't look at me now you just had a lot to say you don't have nothing to say you're mad that i found what's up girl how you feel they had the price under it and we know the old scores when you make a mistake and keep the items under the price they have to honor it you came over here while i was having a conversation with a nice black young lady and proceeded to say oh if we place our items anywhere then that's the price right that's how you treat the customer at low are you the manager you said you're the manager right So instead of de-escalating the situation, you add a fuel to the fire. You didn't come over here with customer service.

You came over here with bad service. Why? Because I'm a black man trying to do good things. Or what was it? Because I was talking to a black lady. Huh? You have nothing to say? That means lows.

This is going right to lows. He continues. This falls into my favorite category of celebrities complaining about companies on the internet. It's like my favorite subgenre of the internet that no one ever really talks about. him sometime. Do you? You'll go on Twitter and be like, yo, at. Like, particularly if I get bad customer service from like an airline. It's usually airlines. It's always airlines.

Airlines and, um... Hit tracks. Yeah. Yeah. There's a problem, right? In my opinion. I think we should do that. But when it's a conglomerate, you're doing it for nothing. They fix my problem. He got his problem fixed.

Oh, yeah. They fix? He got the locks for the seven years. If you have a, like, back in the day on Twitter, if you got a blue check, when blue checks mattered, they would very quickly fix. your problem because they didn't want they didn't want to retweets and all that shit what they do send you some fly mouths they booked me they moved my seat and they gave me this the fight that I needed it was their fault like I don't do it I don't do it to be like a petulant like a lot of people I feel like do I think that's true okay I think that's true but like if I'm not saying Jim was the white the whites oh it's everybody does it every time you know one of my people's a lady at

a job used to do this every time she got bad customer service and they was in a gift cards gift cards gift cards wrong Christmas time she had a stack my nigga of gift cards just based off she got that much bad service bad reviews throughout the year

or she's just saying it was bad she said it was bad it ain't got to be bad you got two times to do this as a celebrity I feel like and then you turn it in Monique so pick them wisely but she it should be something good

remember when was that Lizzo or somebody that the Uber Eats was delivering the wrong food and then they was just constantly on Twitter like Hey, Uber eats. It's like, you know, you want to use your one card for $37? Yeah.

I feel like I don't want to see Jim pull his phone at. He's right. He is right. Jim is 100% right. He's right. Yeah. So, but. And if I don't pull my phone out, the shit could go another way.

Yeah, yeah. Pull my phone out for my safety. Nah, I'm pulling my phone out. And that's what he said at one point. And that's what he said that at one point. Leave. Get out of there. So they're supposed to honor the price that they put, no matter.

Yes. Get out of there. We've blessed enough to be able to afford whatever. locks we want and that is more priceless than the footage living in perpetuity online of you just barking on the lows. Now, I will say if there's someone to do it, Jim Jones is always going to be entertaining. That's a fact. So please.

This Jim Jones today. Yeah, yeah. Entertainning us. Because old Jim. Petrifying it to them. Fair. See, I think he could. Because when the cops came and they showed in the footage when the cops come, the cops come and the cops

cool shout out the cops I'm sure that's those are jersey cops and I'm not sure that I just lied it was jersey it was yours right yeah because Jim is a jersey head yeah yeah yeah they were they handled the situation like

all right Jim is not breaking any Lord he ain't broke no law so let's really get to the bottom of this right and they allowed Jim to continue to be loud and follow homeboy with the camera that's what I got sketchy to me yeah that's what I got a little hair too because he was Dave and that

told him Lord's voice, he's like, yelling ain't illegal, is it? They're like, nope, he was like, all right then. And kept on going. Salute to Jim. Back to my point. Jim Jones should do this. That's funny when Jim does it. Oh, my God.

I hope Jim got the locks. He got it. He got it. Go, Jim. At the price that he wanted to. And Lowe's, you didn't get him in verses. Does that a rap, you-ish? All right.

In terms of arguing. Watch him about our men. That's a good shot. Watch your mouth about our man. It was right there. He know he didn't get him in versus. That's my man. No.

I know all the men's And Lowe's? I was asking for him I had to fight over those things No, he was fucking a Lowe's man That's how you got Hey yo, hey you're Pay for a lock of years

Hey your birthday Go on birthday for me Let me get these locks You know It's lie on this big brook ass Say you never fucked for cheaper supplies Yeah Oh my God

Oh the man says Did you ever fucking get cheaper supplies Did that hot west door with the D Did you ever imply That maybe one day you might fuck for cheaper supplies? No. Okay.

A professional. He's lied three times. Yeah, this thing is sweet. He's just, right? Right, Fox? He just... You seen Ray J. You seen Ray J try to beat you?

And what? I ain't like that shit. Ray J. tried to outdo my man. And what? He can't beat you. I don't care what he lied he said out there. Let me see what the number was. 11,500.

Was what? That's his number? It's his number. So he said he tried to beat it. I don't think he got my man beat. I don't think Well, he might because he's been famous for a long time But other than that, my nigga ain't far behind

He ain't far behind He's right on a creep up At least 85 in it Rageick can't fuck with you in my book Are you all that? Yes Same town shit Same county

Yeah, they're in the neighborhood Yo, what's the road with you? What did you say to that? He's at, I'm not even going to shout to Reggie. Not even going to dignify that shit right. No, shout the rage. You're a man.

There's a whole event. that came out. There is. I haven't got to watch you yet. Me neither. So let's play it. There we go. Never fight against the future.

Future's coming. Artists, they were trying to recreate something that was already done. But they're not connected to it like that. They're not living it and breathing it. They were fighting against gravity as opposed to telling their story. We needed that other side. We needed to hear about what happens when you've had four successful albums. What happens?

What is that feeling like? How do you make the next one? How did you get in the studio? How are your kids? How do you interact with them? There's this hip-hop dad. But if you're trying to make young music and you're not, you know, you're not young. It's going to be inauthentic and people could feel that.

You can smell it. People all the time, the best thing that anyone can do like going through music is to tell their story. and just keep creating from that space. I love what the clips are doing right now and how it's authentic to them. And I tell them the story about their mom and dad who just passed away and how deep that is with John Legend singing on the chorus

and everything that they've been through is an authentic display, a piece of classic material that it could have came out 96 or come out 2026. It still feels the same because it's real and it's authentic to who they are. The best thing. And that is via the New York Times.

If you're unaware, the New York Times recently released the article of the 30 Greatest Living American Songwriter. I saw this here. Some interesting choices on there, I thought. I'm not going to say that this is in order. These are just the names. Jay Z, Young Thug, Kendrick, Outcast, Missy, Mariah, The Dream, Bad Bunny, Babyface, Stevie Wonder, now Rogers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis Smokey Robinson Lionel Richie Taylor Swift Lana Del Rave Dolly Parton Bob Dylan Bruce Springsteen Paul Simon Carol King

Oh thank God What I was if they don't say Carol King I'm the whole list is fake Carol King Willie Nelson Diane Warren Fiona Fiona Lucinda Williams Romeo Santos Valerie Simpson Brian and Eddie Holland Stefan Merritt hopefully I'm pronouncing that right This is spelled S-T-E-P H-I-N and Josh Osborne Brandy Clark and Shane

McAnally. Is this, this has to be just songwriters. Hold on. U.S. songwriters, but it has to be songwriters that are also artists. Why?

Yeah. I would have to imagine because there's so many songwriters that are not listed here that have fucking smash. Brian Michael Cox should be there. Yeah, yeah. Germaine Dupree could be there.

Yeah. That's a good point. There's a bunch of people that could be here that are not here. But I'm not mad at the list for the most part. I don't know that. I ain't have baby face. name. He's on there.

Oh. Yeah. He's on. Dianne Warren was on this? No. No. Okay. Fair enough. Fair enough. I feel like there's some people missing. I don't see how you do this list without B. Cox. Yeah. Yeah. But I won't say that because he might be 31.

Fair, I guess. But then I don't know if those 30 people. There's nobody on this list you can discredit. No. And there's a few names I'm unfamiliar with, but most of them I'm familiar with. It's nothing you can say about it. Not even to discredit anybody, but if we go on... I don't want shit on nobody.

If you're going to put some people on board that... I feel like Young Thug paid to be on it. No, but Brian Michael Cox is higher than some of those people. He's definitely hired in Young Thucke. That's all I'm saying. Jermaine Dupre too? Yeah. Yeah.

Like, because no shit, no disrespect to Mariah. If you put Mariah there, then you got to put J.D. and B. Cox there because a lot of her classic shit came through that camp. Mm-hmm. Yeah. I don't have anything to say. I was just reading it. No, no, no.

Yeah, for sure. I like the list, though. It was not bad at it. They have a section on the, I was trying to get it. I don't, I don't subscribe to the Times because it says how we chose. The criteria. Yeah, but it's not coming up for me. I would have read there.

Yeah, I just feel like there's behind the scenes, people, the Jack Antonovs of the world and the Sean Garrets of the world. And there's a bunch of people that probably should be on this list, I would think. Absolutely. There is a big number, a small number, though. It is. It is. It's tough. Because when you got like the smokies and the Steveys and the Carol Kings.

For sure. There's like baby, I mean, there's some people who are just so cemented. It's just undeniable, yeah. Yeah, so you might be fighting for, it might be 50 people fighting for really like 15 spots. Did you really say Young Dogg? He's on the list, yeah. Okay. Was Max Martin on the list?

That's peace. Not on the list that I was read. Then it's an egregiously bad list. I don't understand that one. Me neither. I thought y'all were joking when you said that. And no disrespect to Young Thug, I think he's a great artist, but one of the 30 greatest songwriters ever with that list?

With that list? Sorry. Yeah, that's a test. Yeah, respectfully. I'm not putting him in Dolly Parton and. That's what I'm saying. I'm the same list. I love Young Thug.

I love Young Thug too. Just the two sports fans I want to talk to before we end the broadcast. The draft is over. I'm happy with what the Giants did. The Dolphin seemed to have done pretty well. themselves. They did a lot of groundwork, I would say. Which I'd like. My man's little cousin. Who? The cornerback dude from San Diego, Chris Johnson? Penn State, I think. I think he went to Penn State. In any case, he has a lot of groundwork.

Come on. Blocking tight ends. Freeze, come on. One, I don't, I don't, I'll take a little follow the draft. Okay, so, all right, I got you. I got you. I got you. But I know Aaron Rogers is still the court. No, no, no, no, no. I got, I have business very specific to the Steelers and Cowboys. Okay, cool. At smiththompson.com. Shut up. Pay for you, too.

Where is the shit at? No, I'm not on YouTube. All right, here we go. Pittsburgh is pissed about this. They feel like Dallas duped them. They, especially with the draft being in Pittsburgh, they felt embarrassed on a national stage. So, those are a wild development that happened.

This is great. The war room, not only in Dallas. First of all, Before this continues, I know that this is true because this is the same thing that the Cowboys did to the Giants in 2022. And that was the Michael Parsons draft was 22? The Michael Parsons draft is when they fucked us with this same move. But this is cute. This night, but also in Pittsburgh and in Philadelphia.

So the Cowboys are sitting there on the clock at pick 20. They were planning on taking Malachi Lawrence right there. But they did entering that pick they wanted to trade back. They had been tipped off somehow that Mackay Lemon was going to be. be the pick for the Pittsburgh Steelers, the USC wide receiver. There's a lot of connections with that new Pittsburgh staff. Remember Mike McCarthy is the new head coach there. He hired a lot of assistant coaches and executives and scouts and, you know,

people behind the scenes that were in Dallas just a couple of years ago. So it could have been as simple as someone in the Dallas war room just shooting a text to somebody in the Pittsburgh war room being like, hey, who are you all taking here? And then thinking, all the Cowboys are taking defense. You know, this is just two guys, you know, two girls talking right here. I thought we're taking Mackay Lemon, you know. And the Cowboys call Philadelphia. Cowboys call Philadelphia.

They're like, hey, the Steelers are going to take Mackay Lemon. We know you want a receiver. Come up here, do this deal with us, and give us two fourth round picks. And they did the deal. And Pittsburgh is pissed. Multiple sources that told me this morning. Damn. I love that.

Yeah. I love the Cowboys being petty. Yes. We don't need to do you the rest of that. But we know this is, and we know that this is true because we have footage of Mackay Lemon on the phone on the phone with the Steelers when the Eagles

when the Eagles called let me say I think I have those clips too Freeze how are you feeling about any of this? Good for you. That's good for you running your mouth. He should have kept it to yourself. Is this one where you look real tight and they put the hat on? This is when he's on the phone with the Steelers. He's on the phone with Omar

and he finds out there. Philly's right here. They're calling you now. I'm going to front. I like Dallas. I like, hey, baby, I like Dallas's petty draft room shit, yo. But boy, if I'm the Steelers, I'm mad at. You can't, who can't be mad at?

You rang your mouth. You can't be mad at nobody else, bro. You rang your mouth. You might have took a couple of my assistants, some trainers or some shit. It's my get back. Left on some bad blood. I didn't like it when the Cowboys did it does,

but I do like that petty shit. I do. All right, go Cowboys. And I think McCall Lemon is a dog. Cowboys had a good draft, too. I don't remember who the Steelers drafted. Me neither. Me neither.

I don't have any other draft draft thoughts for y'all. And we just picked up Scantling. Oh, yeah? Real quick, before we go, just literally take 20 seconds. I'm just being a bird today. I need Drake predictions. That's it.

You know, some people have said, academic said that, you know, he thinks he's going to beat G&X by like 4 to 600,000 So I don't know if the number is going to be that big But I do think Drake's going to have a big, big, big, big first week So

I know it's not time to talk album We'll talk time Talk time will come when it comes But could we throw some numbers out So we're on the record here 450 I say 500 I'm at 5 550

I'm sorry yes 375 to 425 I'm going to go Price is right 350 Joseph Same 350

Well price is right Got you Only because he doesn't have help from the label more. He's beef with the label. And to get the astronomical numbers, typically, you need the label to push it a little further. So let me ask you, when you say push, what does that mean? Promotion.

On your first week? Pay for. Pay for. Oh, okay. Not necessarily just buy it, but they. Pay for and promote. Yeah. You pay for certain opportunities.

Yeah. Pay to keep this release in front of getting in front of the people. It needs to be in the biggest playlist. The first week. Well, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean,

well, for artists of this magnitude. Yeah, I would think that it would just be. Now it's happening. Post release. Organic. Yeah,

I would think it would be organic and then you would pay like the third, four, fifth week to keep it going. Not for someone like, Drake. A major, the biggest artist on your label,

you're going to put all the chips in to make it do it in a day. They play at different places. They talk about Iceman, different places. They show it on different. The biggest release, the biggest hip-hop release this year has been what?

Cole? Cole. What was Cole? I feel like you did three-something. It ain't changed. Yeah, a little less than brutal on ours. Shut up. Just won't let it go.

Cole did three-something? Yeah. Yeah. Remember we came in the condo? It was like, nah. He beat everybody's predictions. Oh, for the record, I don't believe none of them. None of them.

Sorry. Kanye numbers, huh? 280, $2.80 fall off did. 280? 280 pure or like this total combined everything That's a little Album equivalent units It has to be combined

If he did 280 though I can't see Drake doing less than 4 or 5 I just don't see it I think 550 is a good number I think he does 400 just off controversy Because niggas want to see what he said about Kendrick Yeah I think at the bare minimum people want to hear him say some shit

About Kendrick so they can run with it You don't think Cole had that Not in the same way Not even close Not even remotely Off the apology to the delete the all of that shit. Now let's hear what you got.

Double disc. Your final album that you've been teasing well, allegedly. Not to the level, Drake. I'm not, I'm just saying he's had that some level of that. Or any level near Drake. Any city. The guy who apologized and we actually believed

really didn't want no part to this. There was no reasonable expectation that on his album he would get back into this whole what is he going to say? Kendrick, Drake. I don't see it. Listen, I know that the,

Drake thing, I'm happy that things are being eventized. Or again. But Drake and fucking the Chris Brown project and the Kalani project. This Kalani shit has been on repeat. Not for nothing to Ariana Grande. He's announced a new album too. Oh, nice.

Nice. Heavy yet is coming out. Yeah. Yeah. It's about that time. It's coming out, what does that say? July 31st. Perfect. Look at that Chris Brown album next. Is she still with the bald girl? That I don't know. I don't really fuck with Ariana Grande music

ever since she started looking sickly. She said she's addressing some things on this album that she's been through in the last. Okay. They all say that. Because she was already small, but then she started... Yeah. Right?

Yeah. She might be going through something. So I'm not trying to be funny. Breezy album's next week Friday. Next Friday. What is it called? Brown. Any single?

Yeah, you just dropped a single. I just dropped it. And he got the, um, the record would tell her. Shout the breezy. Brown, brown, brown. All hearts and minds. All hearts and minds, clear and free.

All hearts and minds. Anything else we need? Anything else we need to hit? Nah. No, I don't think so. Flip, you suit me up like this is about to be a classic, yo. You did, yo.

And you fell asleep over there. Like, you just sitting over there like you just... Yeah, he dropped the ball today. You let us at these, right? Fuck that shit. Yo, we about to do another classic. You had me thinking that. We was about to drop a class.

Even when we started. No, I think I drank somebody water here, nigga, that was here. And if you watched it, I would you do that? Why would you do that? I thought it was mine. Then I found my water right here. I'm like, that wasn't my water. Ew.

You think that? You think that backwash? Niggas got me, I got sick. If you watch the Patreon, you can see me slowly going like this. I got sick. You think that's fair to the fans? You think you got sick like immediately? Tell me.

Yeah. You got sick? Last. Hell, yeah. I'm talking about today. Wait, what is he talking about? I'm still sick, you fucking dicks. I'm still sick.

But you came in here. Stop being dumb. Stop being dumb. You all hyped us up. You know, you're hyped us up. You came in here this morning. I am currently sick. Can you hear my voice?

Sure. So when you came here this morning? You want to go ask you. I don't say that. You came in here this morning. I was hype. Yo, we got to do another class. Last one was a classic.

And as you went that minute. That's all I had. That's all I had. You think that's my head. You think that's my old. You think that's fair to the fans that you drink the wrong water and they can't get a classic? Nigga, you think it's fair and not sending me home, nigga, once you hear my voice is sick? Send you home, man, send your own, nigger.

It's out of town. Somebody got to sit there. I'm not teaming up with you. I'm not teaming up with you. You're right. Sorry. But you could have sat here, nigga. It's too much, too much terrible.

And your voice don't sound. The camera don't move. The camera don't pan. This too way. You know what, though? When I come here back, when I come in front, I'm getting my seat back, nigga. If I come back. Tuesday I'm getting my seat back.

Okay. I'm gonna teach you something. But can we drop a classic then? Because I thought we were up. I'm sad, man. Nah, you're sick. Last one was last. Now you're sick.

Come on, Mom. Every time you, I think it was your water. It wasn't mine. I'm healthy. The herpes. Oh, shit. Drink the herbie water? Yeah.

That's the wrong water. There was two waters here. I drank one. I look. I said, oh, shit. It's not my water? Watch a, watch a lot. She had some bowel tracks on it.

I love the whole voice, nigger. My wife told me what you're doing? She thought I'm out here in box. Oh, we switch bottles. I never thought you'd do something like that to me. It was yours? Maybe. Maybe.

For no longer keeping up with your lives or supporting your habits to tell half truths. I hope this message. What happened? I know I was busy producing, but forget that. I apologize. Whatever you know. No, he said we switched waters. I said we probably did because when I taste, my word, I said this tastes like, this tastes like milphy.

Oh. I got it. He just told me to repeat it. I said off camera. He told me to say it. Don't look at me like that on money. That's inappropriate. You told me to say it.
