No inside jokes on the radio show You gotta be on the QLS group chat To get up what is happening Oh my God Can we brief? Can we just brief? Can we just brief? I'll give, do you give it?

Okay, so Laiaeer comes into the group chat. What time was it? This was like, this was like, this is early. It's is super early. And I think it was early even like for LA time. I don't think you were in LA. I was in East Coast.

Yeah, you was in East Coast. So this is like five in fucking morning. Preface with this, the QLS group chat consists of like message, like you wake up in the morning and it'll say like 107 text messages and you're like, must be my mom and you open it up. Out of 106. And it's like a hundred and six of them and then like your girlfriend is one.

But like a hundred and you're like, 106 them are like, like, a mere rants about some little-no-nothing record from like 100 years ago. And it's like obsessing about it for like two hours. And you can look at the time. And you're like, keeps fucking going. And you're just like, well, bloop. And like, I'm not looking at that. Thanks.

Anyway, thank you, Bill. You're welcome. I love you. Fast forward. So on this morning, on this fateful morning. Fateful morning. We wake up and like, it is like. Well, wait, what had happened before?

Yeah, yeah. So Jill Scott had the video. I don't know if you're aware. Jill Scott had released the video of her. Palating SM 57. That's a microphone. So, you know what I mean? Or maybe it was a 58 because it was the one with the big head.

Yes, Jim. It was. Breach it. So anyway, so Jill had put out the video or whatever. So, like, he comes in. It's like six in the fucking morning. She just comes in the chat. Oh, God.

So I logged into my porn hub this morning. And I see that Jill is trending. So immediately, we have questions. Yeah. It's like, okay, listen, the lead you're burying is that, one, you fucking log in to porn house. There was a number of sentences. And then it was all these, like, it was all these, like, so then it was the trending topics. And so it was like, the trending topics was shit like the one, the most little one, made him come twice.

I was like, what the fuck? So then that just led to more questions. So then it became, okay, are these the Pornhub trending topics? Or are these your specialized trending topics? No, no, no. Based on your album, your preference. I'm very soft porn on Poor Hub.

I do movie, sex scenes, and I do a couple of, like, group orgies, and that's it. I'm done. You know, the lady parties, the lady parties, when they like to have sex with, like, random men, like the dancers will be there

and the ladies, the housewives will come in there and they'll just pull up your curtains. Well, you're talking about a bachelor parties? No, no. It doesn't have to be a wedding. It doesn't, no. These are just housewives that throw these parties, and you don't know about them,

and sometimes they happen in foreign countries where you can just walk around and have sex with men that are naked. And the men walk around, y'all haven't... No, I'm just listening. I mean, this is informative. Am I the only one that gets lost in a rabbit hole, Michelle? You don't do porn up?

Not like that. So, it was a great day. Wait, wait, wait, I'm sorry. I got to finish? Or don't. Women have parties where they have sex with random men that are paid. Yes. So if any of our spouses or girlfriends are...

They're usually white women. I should say that, though. I mean, we figured that. Yeah, housewife. Well-played, going out with the girls could be some other shit. It really could, Amir. Like, they suck it, they fuck it,

they do everything to these men. Y'all saw girls' trip. But is it, but I mean, but that's like... It is girls' trip on the other left. But it's film, though. It's not, I mean, it's not... No, no, no. It's a, somebody's walking around with a camera while it's happening.

It ain't planned that they film it. It's just like... We're getting like... Yes. These are regular people having sex parties. Yo, 2019 is going to be the bottom, man. We're getting off topic. Laia has a screen name on porn mulchelots into it. I use it for free.

You don't have to log in a porn hub to use all of the things. I know. Everyone knows. That's the point. But yeah, but you made our morning is that. I was in the back of an Uber going somewhere. No, he thought I was probably on all the drugs. Where were you going?

I was coming from. Now, I wasn't coming from Senate. I was going to goddamn LaGuardia, which is the Port Authority with, wings. I had a live nation thing I was doing so I had an early flight so I was flying. So yeah, I was in the back of the Uba. I know

he probably thought I was on all the drugs because I was laughing like shit. I love porn hub. I like to wake up in the morning and start my day off right. Usually with the Diane Lane Unfaithful and the same. The Diane Lane The Hall scene? Wait, Diane. I know what you're talking about. The Hall scene? Diane Lane from Unfateful.

Would she go right to the Hall scene in the morning? before coffee? Oh, wait a minute. Because I thought you meant, because she's killed, well, even though the last season of House of Cards is sort of sucks. Does she have sex in that?

Diane Lane is kind of killing it. Is she have sex in that, though? No, but it's a very, did you see the, yeah, yeah, yeah. When you didn't know what was about to happen, but I think because we live in such a portal society, we just knew some she was about to go on. Did you see the scene?

I didn't see. I haven't watched House of a lot. What episode are y'all talking about? Okay, so episode one of this last House of Cart season kind of has a face-off between Diane Lane, and Claire, right? And Claire, who's a childhood rival, you know. And the way that the scene is set up, it's almost like out of porn 101, like, where the pizza man comes over to, you know. No, no, it's not that, but it's like, you know, can you still do it?

Yes, I can do it. And, you know, after what we've seen in the past five seasons on this show, you're like, you're ready for anything. So they're like almost about to spread eagle in the middle of the floor, and then you realize that they were ballet rivals back in schools. It's a weird deep curtsy,

and you're like, what is this? What? With, yeah. Deep curtsies. Yeah. It was the weirdest. Deep curtsy. It was the weirdest anticlimactic setup forever.

I was like, yo. Are they about to get busy right now? Can you do this? Can you do this? Can I just ask y'all since y'all finished it? Is it in comparison to when it was with him? It's terrible. My problem with it is that he, okay, so they got Kevin Spacey out,

but they spent the entire season talking about his character. I was like, just have a minute. If you're going to do that, just have a minute. Either kill him off and then don't mention him, but the whole season was about him. Yeah, I was talking about him. Wow. So then there you go.

Yeah, I didn't watch. I think I tapped out after the season four. I think. For me, like, House of Cards just became, like, once Trump got elected, we were living House of Cards. So it was just like, Frank was way smarter than Trump. Yeah, Frank was no shock value. Yeah, Frank was way, but I'm saying, it was still. Well, not in real life, though, because he abused little boys. Oh, wait a minute, wait. By the way, ladies and tell me, Michelle Wolf is on that show. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, Michelle Wolf. What up, Michelle Wolf? Speaking of him, this minds will just be my thing. This minds will be my thing. I never properly. introduce the cast at the top of the show.

But you usually have a nice formal intro. This is, yeah, this is our day after Christmas show. So this is sort of the post-Christmas year-end of 2018 show. And because of your role

in one of the biggest stories of 2018, I thought, get them, girl. What did I do? You might have told the truth. And they couldn't handle it. You might as well come join us. So, yeah, thank you, Michelle Wolf. Great to be here.

Yeah. Woo-hoo. Thank you. And sneakerhead. Like, your sneaker at game is rather enviable. It's weird because they don't make the kind I like anymore, so I have to get everything on eBay. But every time I see you, you have, like, some new kicks. Like, you're not a generic shoe wear, but you're not like, oh, let me show these off to make other people jealous sneakers.

But I could tell, like, kicks are your things? How many pairs do you? I'm not crazy. I mean, I'm not crazy. I was, like, probably like 50 or 60. It's not like. That's a lot. That's sneaker hits.

Especially in a New York apartment. Yeah. I have them like, I have like a entry hallway and they're just like on hooks. Like I have fed these hooks that like they're on. It's just like a hallway. Did you wear sneakers to the White House correspondence? I didn't. I wore heels.

I actually wore heels that night. How long did you wear heels? The whole night. Oh, good for you. I, uh, you know, it was a. Actually, come to think of it because you, well, I know you because you're, we're 30 rockers. Mm-hmm. Yeah, you were on the Seth Meyer show.

First time I saw you, you were in character, but I thought that was your real outfit. Annie? Yeah. I mean, I saw you from afar. I didn't realize that you were doing Annie, but I was just like, okay, that's. Yeah, I was, yeah, I used to do grown up Annie and I wore this, like, really short Annie costume. She was a, uh, things didn't turn out too good for her. but I had my hair picked out

like it was my real hair and they just had it picked out into a real big fro and I used to just walk around 30 Rocking in my interesting person with the Afro walking the hallways of With like six inch patent leather

Mary Jane's Yeah so Trending now If you log into porn house You can find it Get out of day I'm sorry Put your computer away How do we feel about this year?

Does it even matter anymore? It just went too fast, like for me. I wasn't a bad year. I mean, 2018 was cool, but it was just, it shit went super fast. Well, for you, you know, your, that's your one-year anniversary. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it was my one year anniversary. I got, yeah, it was one year in November, me and my wife, made a year.

Things are still good. Yeah, she ain't left me yet. Okay. Yeah, she's yeah, man. Get home, she'll still be there. No, no, we're having fun. I did a record. No news, good news that came out in March.

Yes. And, like, that allowed me to further make improvements on my house. So we did the master bath. Yeah, you spent about a good nine episodes finishing your bathroom. Man, we had the master bath. We did a guest bath. I went tankless on a water heater. That was amazing.

Tankless on a water heater. Yeah, brother. What's tankless on the water heater? So we go tanglets. So generally, your old school water heaters is like a Foley Island water heater where that's up the water heater. The big white joint. And, like, it is a limited amount of hot water.

So that's why, like, you be like, damn, don't use up all the hot water, whoever's in the shower. Because it's, you know, it's heating water. So now, if you go tankless, it heats it kind of on demand. So if you want to take a four-hour shower, you can take it. Because it's, you essentially never run out of hot water. It doesn't heat the water all the time and only heats it when you need it. So it's a lot more energy efficient. Fantiglo-Cohman, a house owner.

Going green, man. So going green and spending green. And having Thanksgiving with Whole Foods. Yes, nigger. Proudly. Listen. Let me explain. No.

I cooked a turtified. Wait, what's wrong with that? Bro, listen. So what it was, we had Thanksgiving, like Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving at my uncle's house. And that was like typical black Thanksgiving. We cooked everything. Like, you know, it was just everything. My uncle fried turkey.

What else happens at typical black Thanksgiving? Man, we had games. I had typical black Thanksgiving. Yeah, game. We have games. We have games. We sold this. What's Thanksgiving?

I thought you meant dear. Okay. Oh, no, no. Hell not. Nah, no venison. We had fried turkey, and you have, like, ham and, like, all your size and everything. Most of the time, the women are preparing all the meals. The men sit there all day.

That's the one thing that you should know about the black. At my Thanksgiving, a man prepared everything. A chef? Amy Schumer's married to Chris Fisher. Are you drunk named? Okay, he's not black, is he? No, but he made a mean sweet potato pie. Explaining what black Thanksgiving was to build.

I mean, if it's black people there. Okay, listen. Well, I was just saying that. They have mashed potatoes. They have mashed potatoes and a sack. Like what they had them. With raisins in it? Chris Fisher is a world-class chef.

My brother is a chef too, and he cooked Thanksgiving. Wait, who's a chef? My brother. Get out, okay. Yeah, he cooked Thanksgiving. He's suvied a turkey. You can suve it a turkey? Yeah.

I mean, not the whole bird. You have to cut it up and press. Is that the butterfly? Is that what you're talking about? Yeah. Suvie is when you cook it in. water. Yeah, you cook in a water bath. Oh my God. So that's different than a

brine? I got turned on to that this year. I got steaks all the time. So you do it with the stakes? Oh, wow. Can y'all tell me why is that better? So it's like in like a bag and it sits in a water bath and the water bath is like a more consistent temperature. So you cook it for longer and slower and it keeps like all

the juices in. You can heat it exactly to the temperature. It needs to be day after salmon. Water bath makes all that. Yeah, and like since it's in the water it's like it stays that temperature. It doesn't it hotter or cold or it just stays at exact temperature. Wow. Okay.

So can you still smoke in and fry it afterwards or? Yeah, you can like sear it. Yeah, we can see it afterwards. Just make sure to get the cooking show. It just became one. Y'all think that people know this. I'm going to tell you right now that don't. All right.

Black Thanksgiving. I'll tell everybody about. Black Thanksgiving. That's my shit. All right. So good. Whoa, the slow version. I won't play the whole thing good.

Black Thanksgiving, no. Okay, we have food. And for us, what's game? So we play games. So normally the game that we play. I don't understand. Like games. Like board games.

Like tick-tack toe? No, no, no, no. Or like scatogories? We actually has categories. We didn't play scatigories this shit. This shit we did, Pictionary. Risk. Which we all fucking suck that.

Okay. That shit was horrible. Pictionary suck. I've never got to play that shit again. But the game where we kind of go and get real in is taboo. Oh, okay. Taboo is when it's like, you know, it's crazy. And I learned a lot about, okay, I learned.

So taboo, you're only as good at taboo as your audience. is. So, like, there was one thing, like, it was, what was it? The word was parachute. That was what you had to get them to say. But you couldn't say jump, fly, pool. Like, you couldn't play none of that shit.

And I was like, yo, I know a simple way to get this, that to say this, but none of y'all are going to know it. And my wife was like, what? Cold play joke? Dude, cold play's first album. White people. That was it. I was like, Cole's first album.

And she was like, we don't know what the fuck that is. Oh, no. And I was like, okay. At Jewish Thanksgiving, we play Monopoly. That is so kidding. That's racist. It's racist, Bill. I cooked the turkey.

I didn't sue me a turkey because that's terrifying. Wait, how you do your turkey? How you do yours? I put it in the fucking oven. You didn't put nothing in it? Like some apples, some vegetables. No, no, no.

I did a whole thing. Like I basted it and I did it. It ain't taste good. I wanted to fry it in the backyard, but my girlfriend said I burned the house down. Oh, she's still here. She's still made. Oh, yeah.

2018. Still have a girlfriend. Thank you very much. Now, 2008, okay, he's a boss man. Now, we, that we're going to talk about it. Let's get into it. Here we go. I did not make it, man.

You didn't make it, man. You didn't make it. You didn't make it. You didn't make it. Let's do real. Play some slow jam. What happened? You can't tell us the real.

You told us he was going to talk about this. He didn't say he was going to do it on his show, though. No, I don't. Yeah, so what happened? We didn't make it. We didn't make it. The real shit. Look, I'm not being super diplomatic.

I'm just saying, yes. We will... You're right. She's not, but all her family is. They're mad. They pissed at her. How the fuck did you fuck that? Yeah, how did you fuck that?

So what happened? What was worried they fall apart? Speaking. Amir answered his phone one too many times, I bet. Oh, no. No. The back phone? You know what it is?

I will say that My number one rule for love was always that I always felt that love was a blinding emotion. And that the true glue that holds the relationship together is patience. Okay. Like, I still love her with all my heart. Right. Till the day I die. But I realize that I do not have the patience that I think.

I thought I had. For what? Bruchy 27. I think you. Somebody said, but me. Praise Jesus. Praise him. First of all. This nigger's almost 50.

What did he do? Whoa. You know, I really, 27? No, dog. She's not 27. No, no, for a minute. She'll be 30 this year.

Thank you. She'll be 30. She ain't hit 30. Yeah, but 27 feels like that could be 24. She hasn't found her. When y'all found, when y'all first started. She was like younger.

She was like 28 or something when y'all started, right? Just because she didn't find yours. Yeah. So, okay, so she'll be 30. So you realize you didn't have the patience to, was it, to date an old, to date her? Or to date just period. I feel like if I start mansplaining, then it's just tone deaf for me to do it. No, it ain't mansplaining.

It's the short. No, I'm not making good radio or good TV. I'm just saying that for my, for my, for my. my personal in, I have very short patience when it comes to. Because, again, a real relationship is a compromise. Okay. And sometimes it's hard to humble yourself and compromise things, especially when you're in a position in which you're usually on top of the pyramid.

Okay. And that was for you. It was hard for you to do that. Yes. It was hard for you. So you didn't want to give up. eating cookies in the bed. I remember that I got a bit.

A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what you're saying. Yep, that's me, Clifford Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football,

or my career in sports media. Well, somewhere along the way, this platform became bigger than I ever imagined. And now I'm bringing all of that excitement to my brand new podcast, The Clifford Show. This is a place for raw,

unfiltered conversation, with some of your favorite athletes, creators, and voices that not only deserve to be heard, but celebrated.

You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes. And rule two, never mess with her friends either. We always say that trust your girlfriends. I'm Anna Sinfield. And in this new season of the girlfriends, Oh my God, this is the same man. A group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist. I felt like I got hit by a truck.

I thought, how could this happen to me? The cops didn't seem to care. So they take matters into their own hands. I said, oh, hell no. I vowed. I will be his last target. He's going to get what he deserves. Listen to the girlfriends. Trust me, babe.

On the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. This week on the Sports Slice podcast, it's all about the NFL draft. And we've got a special guest. The director of the NFL's East West Shrine Bowl, Eric Galko, joins the Sports Slice podcast to break down what really matters when evaluating draft prospects.

Listen to the Sports Slice podcast on the, I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. And for more, follow Timbo Slice of Life 12 and TikTok Podcast Network on TikTok. I got to admit, the night

we broke up, all right, ladies and gentlemen, one of her rules. Lena, wait, told you about this. Wait a minute, I know Michelle's like, what the hell am I doing here? If I didn't get a worded, that's why. No, you said at the top of the pyramid, I was like, she's a cheerleader, right? overall will you

well you well thank you yeah the first thing I did was I ate like all week in bed like disrespect oh my after Thanksgiving leftovers forget about it

like wings all over the bed it didn't it didn't work man and this time and that's why in this no literally literally I don't want to make a joke of this

there's a certain type of therapy I'm going to be doing so that I will never have to go because the thing is like if you find yourself kind of like repeating steps and going into the same situation over and over and over and over and over again that probably speaks more of me

than it does absolutely yeah that's why I asked what happened it was with you it wasn't even about her what was it in you that kind of I personally just didn't have the patience to really just deal with my life as is and a relationship. I feel the same way when I'm with my nephews. I'm like, they keep wanting to play and I'm like, I'm done with this game. I don't know.

I'm not. I still stand. I still say that, like, if you show me, if you show me a brilliant businessman or a successful person, at their career, I will show you a mediocre partner or maybe a bad partner. Like, I don't think that you can be... You always talk about these things. Father of the year or made of the century

and also devoted to your job. I don't think it's not that black and white. They're not that mutually exclusive. I disagree with you. I don't. I agree 100%. But you don't have... Do you have children? No, and that's why. I can't have children. I mean, I can't. I'm amazing.

I have kids. So what the fuck? Yeah. No, no, no, no. But it depends. But you, but you, okay, I know you're making that comparison, but you do acknowledge that there's a slight bit of difference in what you do for a living and what I'm attempting to do for a living.

Like, are you, do you have 14 jobs? Do you have a food line coming out, the cutlery popcorn line? Are you acting in movies? I live it. No. Yeah. Like, I mean, you probably have had much. You probably have four or five jobs.

I'm not saying that you... But honestly, though, Amir, like, real rap, man, I think that's, I think that's, I think I can make the case that that's a chicken versus egg argument for you. Well, but I would also say, though, like, I'm, like, I'm home. I came home today. I'm home for a day, and then I leave tomorrow. And then I'm home for six hours. And then I leave again for, like, you know, like, it's not a lifestyle that's conducive necessarily.

To a relationship. Yeah. But I think that's because, like, I would say more so for the kids thing. I like, if you had, if you had, if you had been, like, like I was and was risking it all early. Like, you know, had you had kids like young, it's like you kind of have to make that change. You know what I'm saying? Versus if you don't have kids, then you're free to kind of do whatever.

Okay. Now, say if you have a niriety of, say, Takashi 6-9 or noriety, not the, not the fuck shit. Notariety. Okay, thank you. I didn't know. We're confused. I don't know. We're about to talk about this motherfucker who we just listened to. We just listened to.

Takes and everything. Let's do it. Face tats. Face tats. Face tats. if it were that level of stress and responsibility in your life okay and the trimmings and the stuff that comes with that life

holes yeah I know yeah let's talk about it yeah how how easy of an obstacle course would it be no it was it's gonna be hard but the thing about it is like I think what you said was key it really just depends on the person so it's like yeah you know when I went through like my first divorce It was just like, yo, I shouldn't say first because that applies the second one that's coming.

That was... One of the things that people always asked was it was the music industry that did it, was it that? And I'm just like, dude, it wasn't that. I was still going to be me. I was going to be me, if I was bagging groceries at the fucking Harris Teter, I was still going to do that the same way that I do my music. I'm still going to be...

But you couldn't be... Yes, they're going to know... If you came... If you walked in Harris Teter and you saw my line... What is that again? Grossus. Okay, the Harris Teter's a grocery store. It's a grocery store.

I'm thinking I forgot I'm not in the South no more. They got it in New York. Wait, stop a D.C. Stop a D.C. Maybe it's up a D.C. But, yeah, but no, it's like the same way that you do something. One thing is the way you're going to do everything. I call bullshit on that.

I don't think any grocery store bag boys got fans. No, no, no, what I'm saying. No, you're missing what I'm saying. I said the way that you do something is the way that you're going to do everything. So the way I approach my music, the same way I want to make that shit flavorful and dope and exquisite. I'm a bad grocery is the same fucking way. So, hell, yeah, I'm going to have bitches in my life. But it ain't going to be that many women watching you standing there watching you bag.

But I'm going to have faith. You come into the Harris Tito, like, you're going to come to my fucking line. You're going to see me walk. You're going to buy your rotisserie chicken. I do. And you're going to come to my fucking line. I think he's about to get an invite to that house party. Yeah.

Hi. It's the way you do it. It's good to see you again. Sorry to Harris Tila. No plastic So the white-house Boyce No, I'm playing

Okay, so yes I I failed at love again for 2018 And so, man, we're gonna keep hope alive Yeah we are

I hope this one's gonna stick He'll have to work at it And really want it though That's not bullshit Love is not a side job We all got work to do on ourselves It's not a side job Yeah, that's what I've been saying

So Anyway I'm with you, Amir Keep dating younger women And have no patience You got a girl What are you talking? That's how I work in.

You got a woman. Who's been dating the table for like 75 years. Exactly. Now, Steve's one of my closest pals, so I would never throw him under the bus on the- thing. Is she an avid listener of the show? Probably not. No.

Probably. Besides my brother? No. Are you, what's the status of the speaker? I mean, I just said what I, are you guys back together? I mean. Oh, y'all broke out? He never took them.

But they always do. Like every, yeah, this is like, like, fucking. a quarterly thing they do. Yeah, sure. Quarterly, I think that's generous. I think they're more like 10 times a year. But yeah, that's true.

But just being a men, too, you and your lady have been in for a minute, though, right? We have a 15-year age guy. Oh, wow. Oh, that's, oh. And so, you know, I'm dealing with a lot of... How is she now? She just turned 34.

Yeah, but by the... What's the law age? Half the age plus seven. I'm going to tell you why that don't work. I'm going to tell you why that don't work from a female perspective. Well, you didn't ever heard that? No.

The honorable. of Elijah Muhammad's rule. That's his rule? I didn't know that was his rule. Go ahead, Michelle. I feel like men should start dating older women. Like, every woman you date, like, however, 15 years younger, she should all be 15 years older. When?

That old Millie Jackson play. I will not name her. You ain't bring her outside. Oh, you dated older women? Uh-huh. Every time I see, like, a couple is like an older man, a young girl. I'm like, I'm like, oh, I'm sure they have so much to talk about. Hold on.

This relationship is based in true love. And I'm sure she's so satisfied. She's probably satisfied. She's walking funny. No. She probably ain't walking funny. That's what I'm saying. A bank account looking nice.

That ain't got nothing to do with your. It doesn't. But I'm saying, but we all make compromises. Laia never validates whatever relationship I have unless she knows that the relationship has happened. But, you know. Because I know you. No. I know what you did.

No. No you don't. They've been. No, you don't. No, you don't. She doesn't know. She doesn't know. You don't know all of them.

You don't know. Oh, no, I just know the ones you break out of the house. Yeah, you're right. You don't know. I feel like we've had this conversation before. I don't know. It hasn't. Stay tuned to the Gabrielle Union episode.

Oh. Shut up, you. Yeah, it did kind of get a lot. All right. Let's change the subject. So the movies is 2018. Anyway, so, well, can I just wrap up? Please.

Double bag. Half year age plus seven. No, even with 15-year age difference, which is a generation gap, and that is real. Generation gap is real. But we do have things to talk about. There is real love. And, you know, there's hope for all you guys dating younger women who have no patience. Keep the...

But Steve, you do know that she has not reached her sexual peak as you go down in yours, right? It doesn't seem that way. Okay. A really interesting choice of words. She's still with him. And B. She ain't reached it yet. She hasn't reached it in what way.

She's been there forever. She's been there forever. No, no, honey. I don't care about her sexual peak. I know you don't. This is what happened with Joe buttons and sin on loving hip-hop. Who? Are we really representing love and hip-hop for fucking relationship advice?

Does that happen? Oh, God. Now I'm really playing the shit. Dude. I'm just saying, ladies, don't date too old because, you know, after a certain age, you got to get some pills for that. It just got a real fucking quiet After everything you say all the time

I got a homie to be on the peels The only pills I'm on is Advil Talk to him, Sugar Steve Talk your shit Again, her peak hasn't hit Sugar Steve say I'm standing up in it God damn Don't let this talk in this weed

Get you fucked up Where's my theme? Run that shit I got you Shout out to the old decision Run my jam Words of wisdom Wait, are we even drinking?

We're sitting. I'm sipping a little bit. I'm sipping a little bit. I'm sipping. Listen, listen, we got to take control of the... Bill, can I get you a cup? Of the situation. Let's take control of the situation.

Listen, 2018 was a very weird year. Better from 2016, though. Yes. That's still... What is it? It's still a shitty year, yo. I wasn't mad at 2018.

It just went by so fast, but I wasn't mad at it. I wasn't mad at it. I wasn't mad at this year. I think we thought, I think the hope was that we thought Trump would be out to paint by now, but clearly he will not be moved.

So we just kind of fucking got to deal with it. But. Yo, Michelle, you fucked up the, the next press join. Like, we now even getting a comedian no more. I know. You know, 2019. It's like, she shut it out.

Before we get to that part, can we get to? What was your, I mean, when you were asked to do the White House correspondence dinner, you know, usually there's the sitting president at the event and whatnot. So, I mean, did you feel as though like, well, okay, he's not here, so here goes whatever? Or like, I mean, what was your preparation for it? I didn't really think about him being there or not.

Like, I knew he wasn't, so I wasn't like, I don't know, it didn't. It didn't really, it never was like, oh. he might be here, might not. I just always assumed he wasn't. But I was like, I know everyone, I watched a bunch. I'd seen when everyone had done. And everyone kept saying how bad the room was. And being like, try to do like a lot of inside baseball stuff to make them laugh.

And I was like, there. And I was like, no. If the room is bad, I'm not going to perform for the room. I'm not doing this for the room. I'm doing this for the people watching. Like, fuck the room. Are we allowed to swear on this? Yes, we are.

Have you been there for the last two minutes? I have a question. What was your initial reaction when you first? They were like, we want you to do this. What was your initial reaction? My first reaction was like, I was like, do I want to do that? And then I texted a couple of people and they were like, do it. And I was like, all right.

Was Neil Brinner one of those people? Neil was one of those people. Neil was the, you know, the comedy's father. Although Neil wanted me to go way more down the middle than I did. Neil wanted me to, he was like, he was like, I think these jokes are harsh. and I was like, good. Neil Brennan thought those jokes were harsh. Yeah, some of them.

Damn, Neil was getting soft. He is getting real soft. Yeah, he is getting real soft. But, yeah, no, I knew what I was going in to do. Like, I remember right before, so we did like a sound check. And the woman that was running the Correspondence Association at the time was like, so what gown are you wearing? And I was like, oh, I'm wearing a suit.

And she was like, I'm wearing pants too, you know, like my little, like, stick it to the man. And I was like, oh, they have no idea what I'm about to do. Then wearing pants was her stick it to the man. I was like, all right. If that's your phone of protest, you have no clue. So do you actually rehearse it in front of them first? No, they had no idea. They had not seen anything.

If they asked me to give them something, I was going to give them something fake. You know, like I... Oh, so you had a part of B rehearsal one just for them just to... Yeah. Well, I didn't make it. I would have typed it up and been like, this is it. That is awkward. Like when comedians come on the Tonight Show, they have to perform their comedy act in front of an empty-ass room of like, it's like four people.

Oh, wow. Like the camera guys and the production, like the director. But do they ever change it? Like, my shit, like, do it with they? I mean, they don't change it, but it's just awkward to me because they still do, hey, how's everybody doing? And there's like no one there. You just hear like. To be fair, the only people that, like, anytime I do stuff on TV, it's like, I'm always.

looking to make sure, like, are the camera guys and the crew laughing? Because those are, like, the real people there. And you're like, if I'm making those guys laugh, that's like a real... Then you're in. Yeah. So, I mean, did you have any reservations last minute, whatever, like, anybody that you were? Well, I guess Sarah Sanders was the closest person to you, but... No, I was like, I don't know.

I went, like, I did the thing I normally do. I went for a run the morning before, and then I got ready. And then there's like a little cocktail reception with just like some of the people before the dinner. And Sarah Sanders was there, and they were like, they introduced us. And she was like, nice to meet you. And you're like, I'm sure it is. And they're like, do you want to meet Kellyanne Conway? And I was like, no.

Why would I want to meet her? Straight up. We'll want to meet her husband, though. She's married? Yeah, her husband is like an active dissenter. He hates Trump. Yeah, and he like posts stuff. Play your current events together, Fonte.

This is important news. Wait, this is so great. I just don't follow all these white people. I'm a brass of the shit. I don't follow what the fuck he motherfuckers doing. You should follow this white guy because he is married to that crazy looking zombie motherfucker. And he talks about how terrible he is.

Time out. Time out. Obviously, have you? watched the Clinton affair, the five-part any documentary? No, the Monica Lewinsky drawing where she's actually... Yeah, yeah. Oh, wow. Okay. Yo, like... I'm working on one of my three jobs. What I did not know... Okay, I watched it five in the morning, okay?

What I didn't know is that there's like kind of the secret society of lawyers called The Elbs. Okay. And they're the ones that were... If you remember the Ken Star report... Yeah. And how it was like maybe 5% about perjury and 95% like penhouse form letters

about so what sexual position was it and I remember a method man or red man reading that shit on MTV Oh they read the Kinstar report Yeah it was more like So basically there's a A crew of lawyers called the elves And they were the ones that were like

Fishing for Information like I mean imagine the idea of like a In a trench coat and a dark alleyway while someone would even remember deep throat from Watergate like that sort of thing. And they finally revealed

who was part of the elves and it was like Brett Kavanaugh. Oh shit. George Conway, her husband, like basically everyone in like Trump's organization now

back then was just like regular lawyers and they were part of the snitching unit that so I was rather shocked that you know he was hardcore Republican back then

but now he's like super liberal on our side. But he's not like he's a liberal. Remember, it's a lot of, exactly. It's a lot of conservative, you know, Republicans that just don't like Trump. I see. Even Geraldo Rivera's coming out recently. Really? Like, yo, what the hell are y'all are you doing at the border?

This is crazy. Oh, this motherfucker care now? Now he's saying. Now he cares. Now he cares. Oh, oh, oh, okay. Halado. Lado. That bullshit, Lado. How did he be the kids, Alado. I didn't be the kid Lado.

Wait, where I know that joke from? There's some bulls and halado. Oh, God. Okay. So, did you, when it was over, what happened the hour after? Yeah, how does your life change after doing that shit? Well, I went to this after party. It was like my people through.

And so it was just like, you know, like my friends, the writers and like agents, whatever. and I walk in and my friends and the writers that worked on it with me we're all standing there and they started chanting log her up so it's this big picture the picture that was on the New York Times is like I'm in the middle of a circle and I'm like and they're there's chanting lock her up lock her up awesome that term has went from Hillary to you to Ivanka I know 2018 is it yeah they want to lock up now the bitch was you

using her email. Oh yeah, the person I saw that. I saw that. Yeah, yeah. He doesn't do white people politics. You didn't hear that shit? No, see, I mean, I'm on Twitter. I have no choice but to see. Now, I did see the thing about it. So, Fonte, Ivanka has done similar things to which Hillary was accused of. I saw, I don't know, I did see that.

I didn't lock all the motherfuckers off. Everyone always, like, for some reason, people always, like, tweet at me, like, I rarely go on Twitter anymore, but they tweet at me to be like, well, I'm sure you think Ivanka should get locked up, but you didn't think Hillary should. And I was like, I don't care who you lock up. You can lock up every single person if you want to. They've all done

illegal things. All of them. You're right. I'm fine with that. I have no allegiance. It kind of made you a political pundit that you didn't want to be. Yeah, I'm just like, I think people think I'm a liberal person, but I think people, I live in the gray. Like, I will, I will take the funniest side, you know, like, and people are always like, oh, you must think this and this. And I'm like, I'm like, you can, you can arrest all of these people. I don't care. They're all doing bad thing. Because I think that's the thing that got, the biggest thing that got misconstrued about

the correspondence dinner, they were like, you went after the right. And I was like, I went after everybody. I went in there with a bazooka and I just took shots at everything. I love it. So how do you feel in the aftermath that they're now? Actually, I sort of feel like inviting, I forget his name. he wrote Hamilton. Lynn?

Oh no, Ron Turner? Yeah. Inviting Ron Trinnell. I almost feel like he too will have a trick up his sleeve. So he'll go after, he'll definitely go after Trump in like the First Amendment, like defending the First Amendment and stuff. My problem with that is that he's not going to go after the media, which I think is very complicit in all of this. Like those 24-hour news, like, even Foxx. definitely, but like MSNBC, CNN.

They're all just people that they play this stuff nonstop. It's like, remember when like a Amaroso got, Amarosa got fired? It was like three days of coverage for a thing that, I don't even know what her position was. Other than like Black Lady.

Yeah. She was sold Black Lady and chief. And so they just, I mean, I don't think he's going to go after them, which I think they're a big part of the problem. They're each driving a narrative and I think that's the reason Trump will be elected again. You think he'll be elected in 2020.

I think he'll be elected in 2020. I think he will. I don't know who. I don't want it to happen. I don't know who we're going to run against him. And the media coverage is too juicy for them. It's too good.

They will play, you know, like they'll play up all they'll play up all the juicy stories. Like that's why the Hillary email thing that like Benghazi stuff that was always like, oh, we got to make. It's a big story so people tune in.

They will play whatever people will tune into, not the boring stuff that actually matters. Damn, but if he gives another term, do you know how many people's lives will be? Like, one, two, two, three. It'll be so many people's lives in danger. Even more so than they are. Well, you were from one, two, millions?

Because I was just looking at the brown people first. He's going to get to y'all too, because remember, it's us as y'all. Are you Jewish, Michelle? No. Okay, so then you're last. But it's going, it's coming around. You think you think he's coming?

You think he's coming? I mean, he doesn't care. If the Jews die, he doesn't care if the black people get killed by police? I mean, what do you think is going to happen if we get another four years? I can't with the politics of Pornhub.com. I can't be well-rounded, Bill. I just don't know who they're going to run against him. I mean, they're trying to push your boy Beto, but I don't know if he, I don't know.

I even heard that Bernie says he's going to run. No. No. No. No. No. Like, Bernie, who's done three things his political career, one of which was like a post office ordinance. Yeah.

He fixed that one Vermont post office. That post office was fucked up. He really came to the rescue. Why am I having a brain part? Biden is going to do it. He's going to run track. No. I think, I think, Beto O'Rourke will probably run.

He is the person who lost narrowly to Ted Cruz in Texas. So are you picking him over Kamala Cori? I'm just keeping my ear to the streets. My girl in Boston. Because I'm the person that watches MSNBC 24-7. You ain't alone. Well, I'm just saying that, you know, if we're talking about front runners, I feel like Vado O'Rouk is probably Democrats hope for now.

I don't know. He's not my favorite, but I'm just saying that. Beyonce couldn't help him. I don't think Beyonce really could have anybody. Who is looking to Beyonce? Nobody, but I'm just saying... But I'm just saying, if you can't get Texas, then how do you get their...

Taylor Swift... What is title on paid bills? What? What is title unpaid bills? I've no idea. I just looked about it because we're on something. We're on Pandora. Who is the candidate that Taylor Swift endorsed and they still lost?

I'm a Tennessee person. Yeah, so why do you think Beyonce's going to swing anything? Don't nobody... It was really a bad joke, but I just mean that if he didn't get Texas, then I just don't know if he's going to get middle of America. No. I mean, he got Texas. I mean, he lost by the skin of his teeth,

which for Texas is some major shit. I don't know. It's major. But Ted is also like the most disliked person. He just got 20% of Texas. He's the worst. He looks like a Muppet. What did you say?

Ted Cruz is like one of the most disliked people too, and he couldn't. Well, you know. I do. Hate is winning in 2018. Yeah. All right. So can we start with music? Oh, okay.

movies. You said the frontrunner. I watched that movie. All right. Well, we can do movies. We could do movies. Of course, I feel like the first major release of 2018, of course, obviously. Black Panther?

Have you seen... You've not seen The Black Panther? Damn it. I still haven't seen Black Panther. You watch the Black Panther. Do you at least own it? Why have you not watched it? Yeah, I'm going to say...

I quote and quote own it, yeah. If you did not watch the Black Painter, you're vinyl. I didn't see... I didn't see a single new movie this year. So I'm just going to chime in every once while with an old movie I watched for the first time. Movies were great this year.

I think I went to the actors in it that you know. Movies were great this year and television was great this year. It was. I saw a lot of movies. Go ahead, boss. Tell us why. Go ahead. So Black Panther.

I fought with Black Panther. Avengers. Yes. I was here for that. For what? For what? Avengers. Avengers.

Phenos. What else? I finally saw the first Godfather. Okay. You and I are together. Wait, did you see it on Zet Blue? No, I watched it at home, but I... Or American Airlines.

I first watched the second Godfather because everyone said that's the best one. And you don't need the first one, and I was like, so lost. The whole time. Yeah, I was about to say that. So I watched the first Godfather. The third one is the one that's kind of like,

you don't get you taken a leader. I've attempted to watch the Godfather gillions attempts before and falling asleep. That's like me with like taxi driver and mean streets. Yeah, I never got through taxi driver. I just, I can't do it. I never get through.

I get through, like I'm part of the bank, but. That's the Sugar Steve story. Taxi driver. Travis Bickler. Wow. That's a lot about a lot of things. I think highly of you too. I'm sorry.

The perception of Sugar Steve at work is that he's rather prickleish. Yeah, yeah. I'm sorry. Prickleish? I don't understand that. Travis Bickle. That was the main character. Travis Bickle. Maybe I'm saying it wrong.

Got it. Am I saying it wrong? I thought you were just being sarcastic. I thought you was calling him a prick. The whole thing is wrong. Rural jury. Got it. No problem.

Yeah. Rural jury. Did you want to see Ailer dogs? I'm a really big question. I didn't see that one. I didn't see that one. I saw something on a plane, but I took too many Xanax.

Oh, I did see. That's true. Speaking of a plane, that Andre Leont Talley. I don't know if that was out of this. That was 20. The documentary? Yeah. It was good.

Amazing and kind of sad because, you know, Andre Leontali has never been in love. Wow. He's been in love with a poncho. Am I right? Yes. That guy is the king of wearing ponchos. Have I ever told that story?

No. The Andre Leone. I don't know if you told him on the show. Did he try to dress you? Please tell me yes. No. Okay. My wardrobe is that bad.

Thank you. No, it was shortly after the inauguration of Barack Obama back when Sean Carter was the president of Def Jam Oh wow And so I saw this photo

Oh I remember Of Britney Spears Cormorley Simmons And Jay Z All right To my defense And you know

This person had on the Davy Crockett Coonskin hat thing and some fur thing. Did you think it was Jay Z? Can I just tell the story? Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

So, I texted Jay that morning. And that's what the shit all went wrong. Can you guys shut the fuck up so we can hear the rest of the story? Basically, that's all I have to say. That's it, Bill. That's it. I texted him.

I forgot what I said. Like, oh, that's an interesting a choice of hat wear there, man. Ha ha ha. And usually like with the jokes and whatever, like he and I have a good

texting banter and thing. He'll take, ha, whatever. And I, yeah, we always, all right. Wait, how does he laugh? He has several laughs, but in the texting world, the very few fortune of us that are in kind of, uh,

Texas Texas Yeah, we're fortunate to get his information We always compare Like our A's Like I've seen this I've seen this actually

Because when I worked at Def Jam Yeah Yeah So if you tell a really good joke He'll say ha Like he'll have like A's One time I told a really good pun

About the tortoise And the hair But I spelled hair For me And he gave me like 28 A's And I told everybody I told Elliot Wilson

Dreamham That's like Our whole circle Like we have a whole chat room of like, I got more A's than you, motherfucker. I'm jealous. So anyway, I didn't get respond back. And then I realized, someone told me, that's not cheesy.

That's Andre, Leon Talley. What was your next text to him then? Did he ever text you back? Like, two months later, we started talking again. When I fuck up in his eyes, like, he'll just go radio sound on me and then, like, you know. Because there's nobody he can get you with. Like, who does, I thought that was you. No, he's too petty.

He's not even petty. He just, he knows not talking to you as, has you scared. That's your punishment, yeah. My silence speaks volumes. Like, don't you know, only talk to 12 people in this world, and now you're not one of them? So, yeah, I'm sorry, Hoove, I didn't mean that. Anyway, so Andre has not found love. Oh, yeah.

Damn. Damn, you know, I forgot. We were talking about movies. We were talking about movies. We were talking about movies. We saw on airplanes, and I was just saying. I saw that in 2018. It was good.

Speaking of documentaries, has anyone seen Whitney yet? Man, I saw the Amazon one. It's on the other one. I haven't seen the other one. I've got to see this, man. I'm scared to watch it. No, it's, it's, I mean, you know what's going to happen, but I'm just shocked at the amount of realness that they go there with. Like, they pull no punches.

Like, usually with, like, with the, with the, with the, with the, with the, with the, uh, I'm just shocked. Can't Stop, Won't Stop, Documentary. And with Dr. Dre and... The gifted ones. Yeah, I'm used to be a lot of... But they were alive ones. So, I mean, that's why. Well, I'm always skeptical.

Not going to get Dre talking about Dre or Dee Barnes. Or D. Barnes and... Well, no, he talked about it. He did? And the end of the fine ones that he did. And she talked... They got her to talk about it. They weren't together, but...

No, but they were real about it. But I will say that, you know, whenever a documentary is done and the subject has control... the documentary, your arms are folded. But I'm shocked that Whitney's family just let everything out there. And yeah, you got to see that. Are we counting Amazing Grace's 2018? I am, because that's the second movie I saw this year.

And it was amazing. That's Aretha Franklin. Sorry about that. Damn. Damn, it's a lot of documentaries. I missed Mr. Rogers too. Just that just come out? Mr. Rogers is great.

Amazing Grace. They're still looking for distributors as of this taping. But they did a showing at a film festival here in New York. last month. Yeah, Aretha, when she was alive, did everything in her power to stop it. At one point, 10 years ago, they were going to show it at the Cannes Film Festival as a part of, who directed?

Jackson. Not Jackson. Sydney Pollitt. You know, it was like a celebration of him at cons, and so they were going to just show it and screen it. Aretha actually got like an injunction from a judge to stop showing it, like three minutes before they were about to.

to show it. What did you hear? Was the shadiest part? About the documentary. No, it's not. It's a performance. It's a performance. I think because of her issues

with Atlantic Records, I guess she wanted a couple million, you know, just for... She didn't get her checks, so that's why I'm saying. She wanted a check. I mean, she signed off on it. But she wanted more.

But yeah, she wanted more. At the screening, the producer made it sound like that she was just disappointed that it didn't. get released when it was supposed to, yeah. Oh, because it should have came out in 72, so I'm going to be spive one. Because the way was she hoped that, because I read that, too, they were saying that she hoped that that was going to launch her acting career.

That was like kind of one of her things. Oh, so she was just being petty super well. Because that's what she married, like, she married to Glenn at that time. Glenn term, yeah. So that was kind of the whole. No, I think she would have been missing with King Cunningham at that point. At the early, yeah, the early 70s. Yeah, because, yeah, that wasn't till later.

But yeah, that was the play. Apparently she was. Was the Blues Brothers 2000 her only acting situation? No, she was in the first Blues movie. I mean, well, sorry. She was in 2002. This is what the freestyle

or the Quest Love Supreme Group chat is like. This actually is a good. If you admit that for the past seven or so minutes, you have no fucking idea what's going on. I just want to know why Aretha didn't want the movie release. And I was going to say if it was something

like she was like and then immediately after she died they put it out I mean like immediately they worked out with the estate one other thing I think that she might have had a problem with is from reading the David Ritz book it seemed like that she wasn't too fond of her father's relationship with Clara Ward and they're very

close in the movie I also can't stop a picturing Aretha like every time because you know she always wanted to see her purse I don't know if that's a good but like every time she's doing anything I just picture it being like when She's like trying to get an injunction. She's like, but where's my purse?

Hold on that. Move to the right. You're blocking my purse. I got a question for y'all. In 2018, what was the most, I would say, turning that Prince is doing in his grave moment? Because I've seen a Capital One commercial. When did that episode of Empire Air?

There we, I knew that's what I was in. Technically, that was 2017. Okay. Wait, were you mad at Blackish? No, that was good. I liked the Blackish was dope. I thought Blackish was dope. I mean, there was some factual errors in there.

Yeah, I thought that was, and I don't know if y'all saw Kings, or was that? Damn, was that 2017? What? I think that was 2017. Kingsman's secret. Secret service. What they used, let's go crazy. I saw the other one.

Okay, yeah, what they did, the second one, let's go crazy is like the first. Damn, let's go crazy is just being used. And that shit is, that shit is dope as fuck. But I think that was 2017. That shit was lit, though. You know, okay, I'm... Prince wouldn't have, like, not at that shit. It's...

No, but... Prince would have loved him checks, so... Yeah, but the thing is, Prince definitely spoke on the fact that when I leave, when I die, all this stuff is coming out anyway. Like, so he,

he sort of knew that it was going to happen. And it's not like he didn't license a song to Verizon Wireless when he was alive. So... Yeah, he did. Yeah, I remember that. Yeah, damn. I thought about that.

Yeah. And for me, it's like, I mean, how can I say this without sound like a total capitalist? I'm just saying that for me, I mean, as a Prince fan, do you feel like he's definitely taking some stuff? I mean, it's doing anybody in a room. Yeah, it's doing no good to his legacy. Like, he took his shit off YouTube and that affects me as a DJ. Because people always ask, like, why don't you play more Prince? And it's like, because people just don't know Prince.

Like, I can go Michael Jackson all day because it sits on YouTube and all. all that stuff, but Prince is like be hard to sell. Like he's so hard to sell. Even with the estate moving the speed of molasses, like it's just not helping me. So I'm not mad

at let's go crazy. I mean, maybe if I were more sentimentally attached to your eyebrows. Wait, when I said sentimental, you are. Sentimentally. No, that's real. All if I'm a seminal any, I know. What? What?

I'm just saying that. If maybe if I were more emotionally attached to another song and that was using the bank commercial, then maybe I feel some sort of way. But I'm not like jealously guarded of let's go crazy. You're not one of the crazy Prince fans on the internet that just thinks that if Prince didn't want it when he was alive, then it shouldn't happen now that he's dead.

Right. And they think they own, they know what's best for the cataloging the estate doesn't know what the hell they're doing. And they just all need to shut the fuck up and get a job. They're going to get you, Bill. Talk about you. They know we'll live,

I do not give a fuck. And my roof, free pin is real, motherfuckers. These guys actually have me thinking, like, oh, yeah, this is, I did manufacture this pin all by myself. I mean, I did give you one of the fake Johns that I bought, but you did get the one from that.

I know I paid a grip of money for his shit, so, you know. Did anybody see a quiet place? Anybody see this movie? Yes, a scary movie with the... Where it was like... My man, the merry couple. Your boy, John. John.

She and Emily Blunt. Yes, that shit was crazy. I don't watch a scary movie. Really? I don't know. But you know who's in them. Yeah. That was dope.

Wait, was it scary or thrilling? Excuse me. It was more thrilling than scary. Yeah. I mean, it's scary to you like Halloween, like, with blood and everything, or is it like? Anytime someone's, like, jumping out or like, you know, like you're just like waiting for. So songs of the lamb, how do you feel about sounds of the lamb? That's a thrill.

I really like. But I think it's because I watched it when I was like four. for the first time. Yeah, we're old. Still, but still like Nightmare and Elm Street films, I couldn't watch us for the long. She was for. Oh, yeah.

Buffalo Bill. Wait, I'm leaving. What? Wait, what did I watch? You know, Buffalo Bill was in recently. Oh, Jurassic World. He was in that? Oh, shit. The guy that plays Buffalo Bill, and I'm like, he's just got to be Buffalo Bill and everything he did. The guy you want

He puts the ocean. I want him to, like, in that Jurassic World, I want him to do the dance. Yeah. You see me, you see me sexy. Buffalo Bill was wild. Which I feel like you can write into the Jurassic World story. I feel like you can get that in there.

Mind you, that movie is like 25 years old. He's been in this. He's been around for a long time. Oh, he was in monk? Yeah. But every time you hear his voice and you're like, you're like, do the dance. You want to fuck me? You want to fuck, fuck me.

Okay. Okay. When I saw the preview, I was like, adamant, I was like, no, no more magical Negro movies. Right. Oh. It turned to be a white savior movie. But time out. It turned out to be a white savior movie, not a magical Negro movie.

That's what I was worried it was going to be. It's like, isn't this going to be how this white guy saved one black guy. After having been convinced to do it. Right. Here's the thing, though. I didn't realize. Ever since the opening of the... The Blacksonian? Yeah, I don't know what to call it,

The Blacksonian, yeah. I've been obsessed with the Green Book. Okay. So I'd never put two and two together that they made a movie about the Green Book. So once I realized, once he came on the Tonight Show and promoted, I was like, oh, the survival book

on How to Surviving Jim Crow? And then I saw it. It's not as predictable. Okay. Like, you could sort of say it's reverse driving Miss Daisy, but it's not that predictable. Okay. I got the screener. It's still, yeah, it's still part magical Negro white savior film that Hollywood is addicted to.

But I will say martialize. very good. Started out with Black Panther, ended up with me. Speaking of which, okay, now I learned this lesson last year with Shirek. Okay.

Which, because the amount of movies I see, you know, I always default and go to Rotten Tomatoes. Rotten tomatoes first. And when I saw the Shyrak got an 85, I was suspect. suspicious. And then I was like,

and then I seen it and it was like, ooh, I wouldn't have gave the shot marks. Nobody wanted to diss it. Right. And then when I started reading the reviews, I was like, oh, you don't want to get dragged on by black Twitter. So it's a high rating. So as a result,

Black Panther? Fug. I'm sorry. They hate you give. Nigger, that shit is me. That shit is me, nigga. Really?

My mother says she cried. My mommy called me right after she left. She said, oh, like here, you got to see that. It has a fucking after-school. Nigger, no. I was like, why? No. Me and my wife watch that shit, fuck no.

That's the thing? The hate you give. The shit is named after a Tupac. Accronym. Don't do that to that black woman that wrote that book. Don't do that. Don't do that. No, it is.

It's named that. The hate you give. The hate you give. No, no, no. The hate you give little infants fucks everybody. That's thug life. That's the whole, yeah, take all that.

And niggas. And niggas wrote a movie about that. Wait, I'm sorry. The hate you give little infants fucks everybody. That's what Tupac meant. That's what Tupac meant? That's what is Thug Life, nigga.

I need a confirmation from my actual... They did not want to name a movie Thug Life, so they decided to call it the hate you give. Really? I don't know if this is true. I'm so stuck. No, this is real. No, that's serious.

You have the internet. You have the internet. You have the internet. I have that. I also have the internet, and I'm currently Googling it. Yes. Thank you, Bill. You're welcome.

No, you're going to let Bill validated what we're telling you. No one knows about Thug Left. Here's the thing, though. Right around by right. So critics, critics gave it a perfect 97. Like, the hate you get will be the third highest rated movie of 2018. But the audience rating was like 62. Yeah, but you also got to remember who's rating movies on Rotten Tomatoes.

Who that? By the audience, you mean. The audience is waiting movie. Okay. Because a lot of times. people will do these you know these coordinated campaigns to yeah to push up the ratings on movies I don't think this was the work of disgrunt of white people that was a fuck-ass movie I would say like if okay if you think like a movie's bad or good I always think like okay what would it be like if you're

watching on Netflix what would it be recommended with yeah yeah yeah you give sounds like it would be like if you like this you'll also like a Christmas prince or something like that you're Snow on the bluff. You're also like Boy Byes. Written about Marcus Houston. That's not a real thing. That's a real movie. He has a few movies on Netflix.

Yeah, he's doing really well on Netflix. Yeah, he's killing it. Wait, that Marcus Houston? Yes, I-M-Mature. Immature. Yes. Go home, Roger. Yeah, that is Marcus Houston's screenwriter.

Can I just give a bad... You recommend that? Hell no, that movie was terrible. Oh, okay. But I did watch it. I love watching the bad black movies. What's the girl from a... The hate you gave Amanda, what's her last name?

Amanda Steinberg. So while the hate you did might not have been good. The Hunger Games. But that movie that she did this year, she was like a super. Remember it was like about the kids and they all had the different powers and it was like you was red or you was orange. It was that like it was one of those. It was on the airplane, but it was really good. Was it the mate, not the maze running.

It felt like it was one of those. It felt like it was one of those. Right. Those young adult novel books. It was. Was it on Porn Hub? There were some movies. Yeah, I didn't.

I didn't. I don't think that Amanda is on Porn Hub yet. She hasn't really. You said yet. That shit was whacked. Blind spotting. What we think about that one. Okay, opinions on the Oakland two, which is blind spotting and Sorry to Bother You.

I like Sorry to Bother You. I need to see Sorry to Bother You a second time before I have an official opinion on it. Did you see blindspotting? Did I? No. I seen both. Blind spotting. Why?

Why did you like blind spotting? Here's Tarek's theory. What's Tarek's theory? I liked blind spotting. Okay. He's about to cry. No, no, I liked it. But Tarreek told me, I don't want to spoil

alert. You've seen it? I've seen it. I've seen it. The last... Toree says, I bet you any amount of money that they wrote the poem first. And then found a way to...

And then filled the movie backwards on that. And then when I watched it a second time, I was like, damn, Tariq was right. Yeah, I think the thing about, yeah, for me, what I did, like, I just thought the end. I was just like, yeah, this is not. This is sort of like, what was Saul Williams' film? The Prison Jam.

Slam. When he did the Prison Yard poetry and it was. Like, right when they were about to shake him. Then he went into a soliloquia. But I'm confused because I remember when the movie came out and Unpaid Bill, correct me if I'm wrong. But I thought that y'all went to the screen and you and Mr. Love and y'all enjoyed the film. And y'all was like, we should have Dave. This is an awesome movie.

gonna love this shit. No, he did a good job. He did a good job. I'm not knocking his performance. I did like blind spotting, but once Tariq told me that the climax scene was the premise that they had and then they built a

thing around it. Because I didn't get the cloud. I was like, okay, is this really happening? And I don't want to say too much about the spoiler for nobody, but yeah, I didn't buy the climax. But for me, the premise is still real. And, you know, I had PTSD like seeing the the police conflict scene and that sort of, you know,

like all that happened in the movie, like that still affected me. And the same for, sorry to bother you, which was, that was more about gentrification. But I like, I mean,

after Atlanta, it was like I'm down with surrealist. Yeah. I feel bad. I think I've seen all of our guest B movies because Tessa Thompson, I didn't see none of her decreed that one, but I did see the one with Gina Rodriguez

when the aliens came, where, where Ali Shoehl. Sheeating and it was this year. The aliens came? And yeah. Maybe in your head. No, I don't remember.

It was a glimmer. It was the glimmer. Yeah. Oh, they were all in Natalie Portman team. Yes, and Natalie Portman. Yeah, I did see that. That was cool. See, y'all thought I was lying.

No, I didn't think you were lying. I just didn't know what the hell you was talking about. Two Quest Love Supreme Guess. One movie. Yeah, it was like Natalie Portman, Jessica Thompson, Gene Hibon. Annihilation? Yeah. I had never heard of that shit in my own.

I never heard of it either until I just Googled it. You're saying, definitely. All right. Has anyone seen the eighth grade? No. I got that. I just got that screen

and haven't watched it. It's kind of, I mean, it's not kids, but it's... Zag, baby. Damn. Double Sacks. Is that the Sack?

Do you watch... Show me to Sack, I'm a newbie. I'm a newbie in this because I just joined like, whatever, a month ago. Okay. I thought you been in screen.

Do you join? No, I just joined the Academy, like... If you're not in Sag, have a friend who's in Sag. But do your screeners expires? or like online or whatever.

No, no, they send that's the hard DVDs. The hard DVDs you can watch anytime. Yeah. Yeah, they send us hard DVD. They send me like links to stuff for. The links, I think, do kind of expire. But they send all my shit hard DVD, though. Hold on that.

I don't have a DVD player. Yeah, that's a problem. I don't have a DVD player either. I have a PS4 and an Xbox one. So I play them in my gaming system. Oh, I never thought. Okay, okay. Then I do have a DVD.

So wait, we got what? One, two, three, four sag members going on? Yeah. Y'all need to give up them bootlegs. Well, technically, you can. can't do that because it may be watermark. It might have your name on it. You know what I'm saying?

But holl at me. I got them for the low name. All right. I got the April joint. You know what was really dope, but it was another one I saw. The Stan and Ollie joint. It's the Laurel and Hardy joint with your boy.

Oh, it's about Lauren Hardy? Yeah, with your boy. Really? Big man. The dude and booge, John C. Riley. John C. Riley. Wait, that's about Lauren Hardy? It's about Lauren Hardy?

The sisters? No, no, no, that's, I know that's another, that's the brother's sisters. Right. That's the other John C. Raleigh joint. He, the, uh, Stan and Stan and Ali is, uh, it's him and Steve Coogan. And it's about like their last years, like, when they shit was like kind of fucked up. That was a cool flick. That shit was really good.

I didn't, I didn't, I went into it, not knowing what he spec. That shit was dope. Did you watch O'Boy's movie two, Deplane Deplane? The plane with, my, my, uh, my man's man. Herve. Yeah, Herve. From Game of Thrones. Nancy Island.

They're playing, they playing. Wait, he's still alive? No. No, they did a movie about him on HBO, yeah. And who starred in that said? My man from Game. Oh, my God. Peter Dingledge.

You're welcome. Dinkich. So they made Dinklage into. There's an L in there. It is? Yes. So wait, no one's up in arms about a white guy playing a... Scarface?

A white guy playing, um, playing... Scarface? We don't know what he is? Yeah. I didn't know what to be mad about. He's French. What are we marching about it? He was French.

He was like, yeah. Maybe he was Polynesian French, but he was definitely French. Wait, what movie is? We're talking about the guy who played in Fantasy Island, the plane, the plane, the plane. Herve Villagellis. I'm sorry, say it. Hervee. I got to look him up.

He spoke French. Did that came out? That came out. Okay, I got to watch it. I remember seeing the trailer. It was really dark. What else was? Let's move on to music.

Black Klansman? Oh. Yep. I didn't see it. Not. What's the Kahn's audience award? No, uh.

You know what my thing with? Black men is guilt. It's guilt rewards. Bro, straight up. So the realest review of Black Klanzman's when I ever saw, the realest review of Black Panza and I saw on Twitter, this chick was like, she was a black lady.

She was like, so I just finished Black Klansman, and the white lady beside me is crying, and the black man beside me is sleep. Nigger, that's it. Like that's the movie. Like, it was, I mean, yeah, I didn't. I mean, I supported Spike, love Spike, but no. I wouldn't.

I mean, everyone was all like, don't call it a comeback. No, no. So she's got to have it was more of a comeback for me. It's the hate you give. Speaking of, what happened to season two of season? It's coming. I don't know when, but it's coming.

Yeah, it's coming. I figured it would have been Thanksgiving weekend. Yeah, no, it's, because they've been finished filming it. Do, hey, Bill, did we watch Crazy Rich Asians? I did. Why are you asking Bill? I got it. I haven't seen other stuff aside Black Star.

Okay. I saw it. What's your thing of Crazy Rich Asians? I thought it was a regular old romantic comedy with Asian folks. But the wedding was amazing. Okay. I watched, what's that Kevin Costner movie about? The Body Dog?

You watched a Kevin. I'm forgiven maybe or untouchable? Untouchable. You really stayed away from, first of you said, Kevin Costsner. Is that Kevin Costner? Yes, it is. Untouchables is...

What part of... Are you allowed to see... What part of New York are you from? What? I'm originally from Hershey, Pennsylvania. I know you're from Hershey, Pennsylvania, but I assume that your mail goes to New York now. Oh, I was Village. Okay.

You don't go to movies? I just... I always work at night. And then, like, during the day, I never think of movies during the day. I just watch movies when I get home, but I... I feel like such a slacker. Like, all my peers are like, you know, they're too busy to watch TV. I don't know how you fit any.

I watch a ton of TV. I just do it when I get home. So it's either like really late at night or like. For me it's priority. Like I get up every, I, it's priority. I get it to be here. You're not alone. I'm so low.

What was the other movie? My favorite, my favorite movie I saw this year was, I can't remember the name of it, but it's that, it's a bank robber movie where it's the, Widows? No, no, no. I saw Widows. Al Pacino and that other guy. It used to be, yeah, Doug Day afternoon.

That's another one I haven't finished. The other guy, he was married to Meryl Streep and was nominated for, he did five movies, and nominated for Oscar for all five movies. Not Dustin. Fredo. Oh, Fredo. Yes, I remember. He had to be insured for that Vietnam movie.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, before we get off movies, I have to say, probably the shocker of the year for me was how good a star is born. Oh, let's talk about. No, okay, Starsborn and Bohemian Rhapsody. Yeah. Whoa. That came, I forgot. I heard of Bohemian Rhapsody.

Fuck them niggas. That shit is fire, nigger. That shit is fire. Okay. I have a question about Bohemian Rhapsody. In one of the trailers, you just kept Michelle up. What's your question, but me too. Me too fast.

In one of the trailers, they go, are you ready, Freddie? Because they're talking to Freddie Murphy. And I was like, is that where that came from? Because I say Ready Freddy all the time. And I just want to know if it's cool. Because if it came from Queen, I think it's cool. If it didn't, it's as dumb as the other things. I say, like, geez Louise.

I think it's from before Queen. Wow. Well, I'm saying that was trademarked in Queen. Ready, Freddie? G's Louise is from Louise Sanford. Louise Jefferson. Louise Jefferson. Louise Sanford.

I mean, I was fired. No, Bohemia Rousey was fired, but I did like a Starzborn, too. I like that. with Bohemian Rhapsody is that just based on every interview I read, every book I've read, I've read like two or three books on Queen. Okay.

You know, I know that the Eagles like to claim that they were the champions and people always think of Led Zeppelin and the shark, whatever, but by far, the stories I've heard, that have been absolutely verified and cooperated by, like, all members of the group.

They used to get it in. The level of heathistic, rock star access access and and pushing the limit like they invented that shit and it really it really well even for it there's an album they released called jazz in 1977 and the they had the way they described this party was basically like a recreation of colligula like organizing orgies and all this other shit like that freddie would do Like his house. And plus, like, for me, it's like a lion's share of his romantic life in this film was to his first girlfriend. And it was almost like, okay, duh. Like, okay, let's acknowledge the elephant in the room.

Like, the camera will always pan the other way. Like, it was almost as if I felt like this film was produced by the Hollywood system that was sort of like, we don't want to scare off middle America with all this blatant homosexual images and whatnot. So we'll just like gloss over it. Ben was called Queen. For God's sake. I didn't get that. I read some things online where I haven't seen it, of course.

But I read some things. I'll see it in 20 years. And I read some things online where those people had just figured out that Freddie Mercury was gay by watching it. Wow. And like people were like, like, he's gay. And it's just like, I'm picturing like these old white men that have been listening to Queen and their entire life. And they're like, but he can't be gay.

Next to YMCA at sports arenas. We will rock you guys gay? As hail. No way. As hail. What's the name said that the very first scene that they shot was the live aid. Oh, okay, the concert. The concert, which like, you know, he's like, why would you guys even want to start that?

And they're like, we're just going to throw you into the lake. So you're going to have to. They had a stadium full of like 80,000 people. And, yeah, he really worth it. Me not getting a season of Mr. Robot this year. He should, well, I think that's coming. They're doing one more. They're doing one last one, yeah.

He should definitely get. Check out homecoming in the meantime. I heard that shit is fine. I ain't watched it yet. Same director. Yeah, really. He should definitely get best actor. As far as a star is born, man.

I like it. I like that. I live that shit. Shepal's quote was what made me think I need to might see this because he was like this is the first time I've ever been in a good movie Oh wow You've got me out is a great movie Yeah

Did you see a Starz morning? Did you see it? No, I haven't I haven't seen it either I haven't seen it either No it is and I'm more I'm happy that Gaga finally has something I feel like the whole

But she's not Madonna thing has always been the elephant on her back that she can't quite escape and I don't think that there's any acting vehicle that Madonna could ever do. You mean

desperately seeking Susan was not Oscar material? Wait, I'm shocked. Avita was nominated. Y'all got jokes. Shanghai Surprise? Yo, that's John Andrew. I do like the scene where Lady Gaga taught Bradley Cooper had to read in the back of a bus going Bup Buh, Buh, Buh, Bress.

Yeah. Hale enough. It's my favorite thing to stop from a league of a row. No, that shit hit close to home. So why did it? All for you. Why did it? Just, I mean, again, it's a story of, of not being able to have it all.

Somebody wanting someone's happiness and well-being and success more than they want it. It's a story about patience. And the ensuing self-destruction that happens afterwards. So, yeah, like, I just saw that as, you know, I've been there before. Okay. TV. Killing Eve. I haven't watched it.

Is that HP? I have ordered it. I have not watched it yet. Great. But it is. What is it is? We put that on my list. Jersey Shore, Family Vacation.

I would say, like, the first three minutes of the first episode. is so annoying you might want to turn it off but don't. It is so good. Which one? Tell me what network. It was on BBC but now I think it's available on Amazon Prime and or maybe just I don't know. I don't know how Amazon

I'm my only sucker that buys this stuff on iTunes and Bill I think I've bought it on iTunes to send to people to make them watch it to make it so much. Well I've I've ordered it and I will do it. It was so good I read the book it was based on and the

book is different enough that if you like the TV show, you can read the book and you'll be like, this is a whole different experience. Like, yeah, it's great. I loved it. Okay. I've heard good things about killing me. As far as. Handmaids?

Handmaids. Yeah, yeah. I got that on my list. I heard it. Why? I tapped out. I'm with you. You serious?

I watched it. I saw it all the way through and I was just like, no. You finished? I watched a lot of. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Okay. There is, because we live in the reality that we live now.

which is why I'm not watching it. Right. There's a kind of a willingness to not be ignorant but to not have to watch something that you're living. Right.

But do you not, are you saying no because you think that the direction is bad and the writing is bad and the acting is bad? No, not. Well, I thought, I mean, I think the direction, first of all, let me say,

it is, like, visually, it is a gorgeous fucking show. Like, there are some shots in that show that are just, like, fucking poetry. That shit, looks gorgeous. Yeah, even the hangings. Right, no, for real. Like, the hanging, no, straight up, the hangings.

It's so beautiful. There's, like, there's a cemetery scene in, like, season two where it's, like, snow on the ground and all the haemades are wearing red, and it's, like, black surrounding. Like, that shit is gorgeous. But my thing was just, like, it was just, I just had a problem. Well, I said, I had a problem with it. But I just thought, like, okay, this is speculative fiction, but black women actually went through this shit.

For real, it was called slavery. So, like, I was just, like, I mean. getting us pregnant and using our baby Yeah, like when I saw everybody, oh, this is horrible. Yeah, it was horrible. Like, when it actually fucking happened. Oh, Fonte. That slavery shit is old.

Nobody can't. It was so long ago. Your ancestors. My ancestors, bitch, you mean my grandma? Oh, you saw that mean too. Yeah, yes. Like, for real. That was a mean?

That was a meme. Where it was like when people talk about like, oh, that was so long ago your ancestors. My ancestors, like, my grandmother was like one generation removed from that shit. You know what I mean? So, yeah, handmade is,

I was, and then, too, just on a story level, there's something that happens the way season two ends, they about to turn that shit to the walking dead, and I'm tapping out early.

They about the, they got the damn ring every fucking drop out of shit. So you're not a sentimental completeness. You will, you will... Niggottish accident. It's too much shit out, man. I used to be that,

but it's just too much good shit out. I'm not that. When I see some bullshit, I pull out. I'm a completeist. Yeah, I move on. I mean, I finish scandals. So what comes on?

I did too. I did too. I would say, Scandal. There was a couple seasons in the middle that really lost me. But Scandal, I watched every single episode. I think that's 2018, Michelle. It is 2018. That show is still on?

No, it's over. It's done. I thought it ended well. I really like that. I agree. You even watched Scandal, right? I did, yeah. Wait.

It was a day. Gentlemen, for Steve to watch anything. That's amazing. I would say there's so, I like scandal so much. I go back and rewerew. watch scenes on YouTube. I love sand up. I'm addicted to, I was going to say for the wire.

Sprano's in the wire. There's a three hour cut of Omar only scenes. Like they added in all or my. Dude, when I tell you, okay, so he might come on the show. No way. Yes. No way. On this show, on this show, Michael.

Michael Kay. Michael Kay. When Michael comes on my other show that I work for. Oh, man. They don't know him like we know him. They don't know him like we know him. They don't love you like I love you. I would say, I mean, he's down.

He's a friend. I'm just saying that I cannot wait to make the roots whistle the farmer in the dairy. When he walk out. When he walks out. That's dope. That's all I want to do is whistle the farmer in the dough. I was doing a bit on the daily show the same day he was a guest. And one of my things that made me the most happiest ever is that after I

got off his one of his people came out and was like Michael would really like to meet you with how he was really funny and I was like no Omar

and I had to do everything my power not to because he's like they're promoting a new movie and like so I was like trying really hard not to be like

make it about the wire but the whole time I was like I'm a really big fan and all your work everything you've done is great all right

wait wait no when I think you're with Chalky White though not for not for another Omar and Chalky White

come on man I forgot yeah Chalky White He was prohibition Omar. No, he wasn't. It made me a little sad to hear he had people, but that's all right. You know, you don't expect Omar to have people. It was like a manager or something.

It wasn't like a, yeah. He wasn't having a manned. He didn't have minions, but speaking of minions, love all the minions. Did you even see The Incredibles 2? I didn't see Incredibles 2. I didn't see Incredibles 2. It was really good. I saw every kid's movie this year.

You want to know about him? Have you seen, because I'm what you've seen rap breaks the internet yet? No. I'm going to see that. I saw the Grat. saw the Grinch stole Christmas last week and some shit before that.

Wait, how are you daughters? They're fine. The angel and the devil? They're six and eight. All right. TV, we still don't know. Let's go. So Roseanne got canceled.

Yeah. They brought it back. Megan Kelly got canceled. But wait. Yeah. She got canceled and got a check. This is. She took a whole reparation's check.

She's going to be right back to Fox News. She's going to be way back. You think she is? They're going to take her back? You think they would take her? Yeah. They heard that blackface story and they were like, yes, this is what we want. This is the kind of programming we like over here.

She's been coming to the comedy seller. Really? Oh, way. Wow. She came to Megan Kelly. She was, so I've been very vocal about my dislike for Megan Kelly over the years. And so I was doing, I was on this show that she was in, like she was in the audience. Yeah, yeah.

they were like, hey, Megan's in the audience. We just want to let you know because she's scared that you're going to say something. Let her be scared. I don't say anything because I was like, there's also a bunch of people that paid to be here that don't know she's here and like I want to do a show for them. Yeah, yeah.

Right? So afterwards, I see her and I do say hi to her because like I looked at her why I was doing the show and she's laughing. And I'm like, all right, that takes like a pretty big person to like. She better laugh because if she don't, you'll see her. And then I've said real mean jokes about her. And to like sit and laugh, I was like, all right.

You know, like, that's something. And so like afterward, I was like, I was like, I just introduced myself. And she was like, oh, Michelle, you know, she was very nice. And but then I think her people leaked a story to page six that said that we had met and we were going to go for a lunch. And then we had exchanged information. And I was like, no, no, no. I was like, no. I was like, no.

I was like, no. No, no, we met. And that was here. That was it. Yeah. Wow. Speak, come back. So do we think, is 2019 going to be the year of Louis C.K.'s come back?

You know, it's weird. It's been, I chose a night to go to the cellar in which he might have just left from, I came maybe to like a late night set. Okay. And the amount of, when you were there, were there, like, still? people on the sidewalk waiting with... I was only there one time

when there were protesters. I don't know if there's... Not even protesters. Well, not even protesters. It's like when you go to the comedy cell now, like there's a TMZ guy. Like the same TMZ guy that I see outside of 30 Rock

is now like just waiting around the corner you know, from the comedy seller and then there's... Like, you know the press is there. And plus there's... If Word is coming out that he's there.

Like, I'll get a text. Right. And suddenly everyone will respond like, okay, well, I'm going to sit this one out. Right. I can't. So it's like the climate at the comedy seller is way, way different now than it was previously. Like, it's way emptier and over. No, I mean, like, not, I don't know.

Empty. Not audience-wise. I just mean, like, upstairs the table. is... No, I mean, like, we all... I think the problem is a lot of us are on the road all the time, so like, when we're all there, we all still hang

out the table for hours, you know? And that's mostly during the week, I guess. But a lot of us have been on the road so much that there just hasn't been that good of a hang there right now. But when we are there, we all hang out forever. When he's at the table? He doesn't sit at the table. Is he allowed to the table?

Is this a table? Is this a table? Is this a table on the comedy seller. There's a table in the back of the conference. comedy seller that's just for comics. Wow. It's kind of like what's happening like, you know, that one table. You have to be performing the comedy seller, not necessarily at night, but you have to be a comedy seller performer to sit at the table.

And it's like a thing that comics know that like if you haven't done shows there, you don't sit there. Wow. So yeah. So no, you're not sitting there. It's like sacred ground for comedians, you know. There's not one comedian that walked up like, hey, what's up? I'm going to sit down. I mean, some people do that.

I mean, Sunfield comes by and he sits in the back. But he's not right. But, you know, like, uh, Louis. Louis sits on the stairs. Yeah. Oh, word? Yeah.

He doesn't even come in the... No. He knows he's on shaky grass. If you sit in the stairs, you're on shaky grim. But he used to sit at the table. He used to sit at the table. Yeah. Yeah.

But he'll, he comes in, he sits on the stairs and does his set, and then he goes. And it's like, you know, he comes in and out. He's, I think he's trying not to make it hard for anyone else there. You know, like, he does it. He knows the stories that have, like... Right. He knows that anyone will get wrapped up in things he does, I think. And so I think he's trying to just,

make it as smooth and easy for everyone as possible. But don't you think him and Harvey, they're going to be cool in 2019. I mean, you know, but don't put him in the same sentence. Who's Harvey? Who's Harvey? Who's Harvey? No. I mean, don't put him in the same.

I mean, I just, I mean, women have accused both. So I'm just saying it doesn't. No, but I'm like crazyly different things. He's never working in this town again, I don't think. No, Louis. Louis will never? No, Harvey. No, Harvey.

Harvey. Oh, Harvey. Well, wait. If Harvey decides to relocate to, Harvey might pull at Russell and just go to another country. Like Harvey basically built his own empire

in Prague, which a lot of people don't know about. In 2003, what was the Huddland Brothers? The Hughes Brothers movie. The daughter, first daughter. From hell, that was the Jack the Ripper joint.

Yeah, from hell. Yeah. Right. So basically, like, Harvey set up a Hollywood away from home to shoot, it's cheap, and more important, it's the heathistic capital of the goddamn world, like everything you ever wanted to happen

in your rock star life, like it happens there. So if anything, I think that if he were to get off, you know, he just go over there. If he has the best lawyers and they get him off, he'll probably just go to Prague and maybe, you know,

somehow ghost his way and, back into the industry or whatever. I don't know. I just want to see who's the first white man is going to go to jail. Well, that's the problem with all this. What's Takasi 6-9?

He ain't white. Is he white? I thought he was Mexican. I don't know. It's hard to tell. He's got a lot of tattoos. I'm not right. Yeah, I think he's going to jail.

He's got like a jumpster on his face. Mexican, I think. I think he's Mexican, but yeah. Yeah, that makes sense. Again, who's the white man? Who's the white man? And that's not, that's a different case. That's different.

Oh, wow, wow. Yes. Cosby went to jail. Cosby went to jail. Can I say something? I don't know if I said this on past episodes, but I'm like really obsessed with. All right, so they reveal what his meals are. Oh, shit.

The shit they threw at him, but the shit they ate. No, I'm talking about they keep a record of like if you want to know what Cosby ate. You can look at like inmate records and shit. Yeah, pretty much. And they updated, you know. Is it going to be weird if he died? No, dude. I was watching.

Like, he might die in jail. Because I saw Creed. Like, because I saw Creed too the other day, which I thought was pretty good. And Felicia Rashad is in it. And I was just watching that thinking, like, I wonder if Felice Rashad just wakes up to just like, you know what? This nigga Bill in jail. Like, you never, like that. Like, really?

Her and Debbie should. Yeah. Yeah. Like, he's in jail-ass jail. Not like. federal, like comfy, you know, minimum security. Boy, he's in a geriatric jail, though. It's kind of for old guys.

Oh, okay. I mean, you probably get shank the same. But those stories are true, right? Like, still, they still do shank. Yeah, they're like a higher quality shank. They got a stainless steel shank. They're like, shank made out of the word of the original sheath. Yeah, yeah.

I didn't, I didn't see that one coming. That was nuts. What's the day of the 30th? No. 26. 26. 26 of December. I'm sorry.

26 of December. Okay, Nelson from the century. You don't have to have that hard. I'm sorry. All right, yeah, he had a Google. Fruit juice, six ounce of apple juice, a cup of hot grits. No. Wait, wait, he got two juices?

He got six ounce fruit juice, apple juice. They got that gave him water. You know he got the beans. A cup. A cup of hot grits. two pieces of toast two tablespoons of margin eight ounce of milk

with a protein eight ounce of coffee two packets of sugar come on man oh and hard cooked eggs with salt and pepper and a T-bone steak in a T-Bone steak in May 76687

yeah and lunchy at O'Brien potatoes a couple I feel like we are discussing Bill Cosby's prison cuisine. Like this is 2018. That first thing you read was just, that first thing you read was just breakfast? Yeah.

That's a big breakfast. Oh, I thought that was all day. I mean, I was listening to that to be like, I'm adding up with the calories in my head. Yeah, I mean, yeah. He's got to like run around a little bit.

I'm putting this shit in. I'm putting this shit in my fitness pad. I'm putting this shit. I even had juice. Yeah. He had a bigger breakfast to me this morning. Yeah, his, oh, okay, Thanksgiving.

Oh, yeah, what was prison Thanksgiving like? Is that like... Oh, actually, here's a bonus. They gave what Takashi had for Thanksgiving and Bill Cosley. Yeah. And Paul Manafort. Because, FYI, I talked to...

Oh, yeah, I forgot here. I talked to my friend in prison and the mills have went down this year. It ain't the same as last year. I asked him what he had for Thanksgiving. He was like it was not. I can't even get to it. Okay, so what was your friend's

Prison Thanksgiving? He didn't, he didn't even want to tell me this year. He was like, it ain't even worth telling you. Is he in Pennsylvania? No, he's in Jersey. Try state. All right. So they gave him, you can either get a turkey burger

or a garden burger, bread stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans, cranberry sauce, dinner rolls, margin and pumpkin pie. So they keep doing it. Margarine is like the worst shit. It's like one of the worst things

you live if you put into your body. Marginment is horrible. Yeah. Damn. But, moral of the story. Don't go to prison. Don't go to fucking jail.

Because you'll get a lot of margarine. What's O'Brien potatoes? They come in, these motherfuckers are coming in the bag. That's O'Rida. No, no, no, no. Okay, O'Brien is like the knockoff Arita. I was like, I was like,

wait, they get the potatoes in the weekend. It's like, once. They're like the, like, what. O'Brien is. The Hydrox is to Oreo. That's what, like, O'Brien is. Ew. What is.

Hydrox. came first. I thought it was like... Were? Hyder's came first? Wow. Before OREO? O'Don.

The Redrox to OREO. Hydrox. Hydrox was first? By the way, whose idea was it the name of Hydrox? It's awful. Yeah. It sounds like an element.

Yeah. It sounds like a sassy element. It's a peri element. It's like it's not Hydrogen's. Hydrox. We should also mention who is America, which I thoroughly enjoyed.

Who's America? Oh, is that? Sasha Baron Cohen's, uh, troll. Oh, his joint. The Showtime joined. I didn't. Well, if you're going to mention, what's the, then it's like the Luke show that's on HBO about the football team. That was dope.

And so was the other dokey series about living in America, the kids in the high school that they documented, like, the whole season. They came on after power. I got to give a reference. It came on after power. That was really good about kids. I was still good food. Yes. Yes.

Okay. And it's still engaging. And 50 cent died this year. Yeah, it's 50s job. He did now, though. 50, 50 did. Like, for real. He was dead before.

Have you guys been watching the funk documentary? the George Clinton cartoon? I guess when they tell stories. The Tales from the Tour Bus. I haven't watched it yet. I haven't started watching yet, but I heard about it. I stopped by. I missed the Black episode.

Wait, is there any other, like, really good TV this year that I missed? Cobra Kai. Which one? Oh, that's the direct box. Yeah, I haven't watched it. I enjoyed the hell out of it. It's the sequel to the Credit Kid.

Yeah, it's the sequel to the Credit Kid. So it's like 30 years later, yeah. But it's a TV show? Yeah. Wait, what's it on? It's on YouTube. Damn. And it's Ralph Machio.

He's like, he's like, he's like selling cars or something. And what about the villain? What's his name? Just watch the show. Yeah, he's in it too. He's in it too. The blonde guy.

Billy Zapka. Billy Zapka. He's in the two. He was the awesome and the black. Oh my God. Yeah, he was like the ultimate asshole. He was. Him and the dude from that was in the pretty and pink.

Oh, James Spader. James Spader. James Spader. Yeah. Good TV. Billions. You fuck with billions on Showtime? I don't have showtime.

I don't watch it on Amazon. Are you sure. Speaking of not having showtime, let's have a moment of silence for Deez Samarro who left Vicerland and go to the showtime. And I'm probably never going to see that show again because they're on showtime. Wait, when did that happen? I know. Like this summer.

Really? Yeah. I don't know when the new show is going to air, but yeah. They left Vicerland and they got a show on. I just get it through, if you get it through Amazon, I think it's like $9. I'm missing my people's too. What's my? The Shire? No, the Polwhite trash zone that I love.

Shameless. Oh, my God. I fucking love. That show's over. Fiona and her brothers. It's over? There's no last season, just haven't.

Did it make that last? Well, you know, one of the girls is on Emma, what's her name? Well, she's on Roseanne. Well, the youngest sister's on Roseanne. The Conners. I mean, I'm sorry.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Which, by the way, wasn't awful. It wasn't. It wasn't awful. But they canceled that, too, or is it? No, as far as I know, it's still on. A win is a win. A win.

I'm Anna Sinfield, and in this new season of the girlfriends... Oh my God, this is the same man. A group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist. I felt like I got hit by a truck.

I thought, how could this happen to me? The cops didn't seem to care. So they take matters into their own hands. I said, oh, hell no. I vowed. I will be his last target. He's going to get what he deserves. Listen to the girlfriends. Trust me, babe.

I don't know. I mean, what she did was wrong. I mean... You know, they treat... What did we fire over? What did we fire over? What did she do? It was about Valerie Jarrett, right?

Yeah. Yeah. My problem is you knew who she was when you hire her. And you knew her history on Twitter. Okay. Mm-hmm. But she also... it was guaranteed to bring viewers in.

She was guaranteed to bring viewers in and then she did something that any of us could have seen coming. And then you're like... Like, why are we shocked? Yeah, why are we shocked? You hired her in the first place. And this is the woman that sang the national anthem at the baseball game.

But here's the thing. I kind of feel like it's like a reverse situation where as if she was like a brown or black person, she would have been gone, right? But because the boss at ABC was a brown or black person, it was like, you know, fuck the shit. You're out. Yeah, like I feel like, yeah. I feel like she shouldn't have been hired in the first place. They should have been like, we're not going to do this with you.

You're a bad person. Like, they should have just made the spin off about Jackie. Yeah. What happened to the baby, by the way, that Jackie had? They just fucking forgot about it. Lori McKeff had been caring that show since the beginning. Yeah, since the beginning. Like, she's, she out, you forget George Clooney was in that show.

Lori Metcalf was so good. George Clooney was her fan. She was fucking George Clooney. You have a facts of life. Yeah. Yeah. George Clooney was not a true. attractive when he was younger.

No, wait a minute, Michelle. He had really good hair. No, his hair was weird. His hair was weird. He was hot on the facts of life. He was hot. Come on, y'all don't remember. All the girls wanted him on the fact of life.

He's better looking at as an older dude than his younger days? Yes. Yeah, no, absolutely. I could probably see this shit. Yeah, I can see that shit. A lot of dudes aren't. It's not fair. It's true, but then they get really, like Denzel was like that, but now he's old.

Not everybody can be catching him out there. Like I was watching Gould Bloom, Jeff Goldblum, he aged. There's goals right there. That's aging goals right there. As our resident children's television workshop guy. Oh, I thought you're going to say white person.

No, you're your family. Steve here. Carol Spinning. Yes. Retired from Sesame Street. Yes. Big Bird and the Oscar. Wow, really.

So, I mean, but in the last days of Sesame Street, like surely, somebody was mouth in Fortman. He was just. just on the side, right? Yeah. When you hired us to do the Thanksgiving parade, I was shocked that he was still the body of Big Bird. And one of the most hilarious and traumatic things I've ever seen.

Like, kids don't understand that. Muppets aren't real. And so there was a point... There was a point in, you know, when you're doing the Thanksgiving parade, the Macy's parade, it's probably a two-hour ordeal. depending on how traffic flow is. And, you know, you starting from 702nd Street and ending up at Macy's on 34th.

So it was a point where Carol Spinney needed to get some air because he's been sitting inside of that Big Bird thing for the longest. And you guys are trying to figure out, like, the most discreet way to... I could fuck somebody up. Yeah. But there was no way to do it. So you guys just like... The second Big Bird's top half came off. It was like he got shot.

Like the look on his face and the trauma that these kids. Oh, y'all did it in the front of kids. Well, they tried to cover it, but there was, you know, you couldn't cover it 100%. I don't ever want to see that. That shit was so hilarious to me. It's always funny when they say cut at that show because like the puppets just go from like totally alive. And dead. I don't want to go visit.

I was doing a show. I was like a hilarity for charity show, Seth Rogen's thing. And I was in a room where there was a TV, and I walked in, there was all these people dressed in like black, and I thought they were like state, they were dressed like stage hands. So like I walked in, I was like, I'll watch with these guys because they're probably like fun.

And then someone, like Seth poked his head, and he was like, it's all the Muppets. And I was like, oh my God, I would be so freaked out. Oh my God. You're like, where's D? I don't want you to see how I, watch things. Yeah.

I don't want to see them. Did you, was it freaking, like, it's like, freaking. Dude, you, you actually have real conversations with them, too. Yeah, no, we were talking. I was like, who did you talk to? Who did you know who you talked to? I don't know. I don't know what any, I don't know who they, who they are, you know, like, I was just

talking to like Miss, well, not Miss Piggy, but I could have been talking. There's a lot of cross ponies and the guy who plays Grover and. Don't do it. You know what? No, no, no. No, no. No. No.

I don't know if you should do this. Oh, okay. Well, no kids are listening. so it's not. Just my mom. Oh, okay. People who are kids at heart. They still want to believe

it's not beloved against and Big Bird will always be best friends. They're always, and they always are. They always are. As we wrap up, music, music, music. I will just go down the line.

No news is good news. Now, for me, the last album of 2017, the NERD record, I actually enjoyed. Me too. I like the two. Me too.

I just think you dropped in the wrong time of the year. Like, if it would have dropped, like, in the summer when the summer it would have been more. I'm still listening. I'm still listening. No, I listen to that record. That shit is dope. So any thoughts of Bruno's six wins at the Grammys and?

I thought he deserved it. I mean, that record, 24-Gram ads was fucking dope. All right. That shit. I was right with Bruno. And Kendrick doing his, uh... What did he do? Oh, he won a Pulitzer.

Putting his album backwards. He did. He did. Um, the Pulis, I mean... Wait, that was a real... They sold hard copies of these damn backwards. Yes. Wow.

Yeah, that happened. Okay. You want a Pulitzer? Yeah, you want a Pulitzer. So they're Ronan and everybody at the New York Times. And Rachel Gonson. Wait, and I still maintain the shock. And the footage part...

Black-I-Bs? No, no. Well, wait, I didn't even go there. This is one of the random things that you'll probably say, like, Quest Level bring up that you don't care about. But I'm still Florida with the fact that Ferell produced Havana. Havana. Havana.

Havana. He goes, banana, no, no. Well, now I know that, but back then. I didn't know that either until you told me. The thing is, like, when I get music, it doesn't come with credits. Yeah. So I just- I must have missed that in group chat.

Shut up. Yeah, I didn't know that song. You're with me. I am. Girl, on, Girl, on Farrell. I had never heard of. But these two were just like, I had never heard of Havana. I had never heard it.

He sings on the Havana on-N-N-N-A. Yeah. No, it's like, I hadn't heard the song until he brought it up in group chat, which I'm surprised you didn't see that. And then, like, I went and listened to it, and I was like, how did you not? know this was Farrell. Group chat makes it sound like we're an AA.

Listen. Now that's real, listen. It sounds like a support. Listen, I know, right? And then we just pretty much figured out that this shit is smooth. Now listen to it. Hey.

Oh my God. I mean, this song is basically smooth by Santana. Yeah. Like, the thing was it snuck on me without any Farrell pretense.

He said, this support group. You said, don't what? Because he's married to Cindy Blackman and she has a crush on Cindy Blackman. But not just that. You know, I didn't really get his number when I saw him. Who, Santana's number?

Remember when I hit y'all on the- She could have been a contender? Remember when I hit y'allel as group text? And I was like, I'm sitting there. Oh, yeah, when you bitched up. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Shoot a shoot, nigga. You're going to get chose if you ain't talking about you putting yourself in position. I've done that twice now. I'm with Michelle Obama to. The, the, um, the Ariana Grande album was also a shocker. That shit was heat. And I told y'all it was a good for a record.

Arianna Grande. Drew. Farrell got like five bangers on that joint. Yeah, the very first joint. That shit is hard. Perrell has five bangers. Look, Max Margaret. I'm capable for an Ariana Grande record.

Speaking of Ariana Grande, she had quite a year. Thank you. Oh, yeah, Mac Miller. Yeah, Piori, rest of Pete. I was just thinking about Rita Franklin's funeral. She wore the dress. The dress and all the dudes that were, Dr. Dyson and Dr. Dyson and Jesse Jackson. What was it, Dr. Jison, Jesse Jackson.

Remember the line of Black? I was on a plane. I didn't see it. Okay, sorry. Yeah, I saw, I saw, like, clips from it. Yeah. Yeah, my favorite thing was Lauren Hill's just showing up to Aretha Franklin's funeral. And to show their Steve's record release party.

Yo, no, straight up, Ray Anger is a dope fucking out. You got Lauren Hill. Bjork City, that's my one. That shit is hard. Your album. Fonte. Sorry. You.

No you. No you. Thank you. Thank you. I would say, I would put Florian. The Machine's album. Look at you listen to new stuff. I didn't listen to that album, but the song that she did on the Tonight Show was kind of jamming.

Did you hunger on the Tonight Show? Huh? Hunger? Is that the one she did? I don't know what she did, but whatever she did, like, I was like, oh, she's, you know, grapping the... I would say, End of Love and South London are my two favorite records on that. Those are jams on that album.

And it's, I love... I mean, I've been a Florence and Machine fan for a long time, but, like, I love it. I'm going to add that because you said it. Can we also say that maybe two things... 2018 was the year of the misstep because because of we can now, I mean in hindsight we can reflect our man of the woods

and... Do you guys know that Nause put out an album this year? No, yes, I heard this. Yeah, we knew that. Kanye put out seven, man. And you know what, Nas has got another album coming out next year? It'll be the fourth anniversary edition of Illmatic. Thank you so much. You're lying. You serious? I'm going to release it again. I don't know,

but they did it for the 10th. They did it for the 15th. They did it for the 20th. The 25th is next year. Of course they're going to do it again. I'm more looking forward to a police album. So this is the year of the misstep. So, you know, Man in the Woods. I still like Breeze on the Pond and living off the land. That's the only one. I listened to Man of the Woods once and I felt like I didn't need to listen to it again.

I just can't get on board with a Justin Timberlake album called Man of the Woods because he's not. Right. That's not surviving the woods. Thank you. Yeah, he might look out of that shit negative and afraid. Okay. Here's my theory behind Man of the Woods. Well played.

I think we talked about this. We did. We had late. I feel like, yeah, this is one of those things that you woke up to 900. No, no. I actually had shit to say about this because we talked about this.

We talked about Man of Wood. I feel like Justin was feeling the, uh, the, the heat of Ronston and Bruno Mars of uptown funk. Okay. Like, Bruno Morris is about to be the new, the new king.

The new funky, non-black guy that has black people's love. Okay. I love that you're saying this He's Hawaiian Well No But I but I think Can he say the N word

That's my No Bruno ain't saying Bruno ain't saying that Bruno is the funky non-black guy That black people K for Vigo Mordenston

No You're so good I love that Bruno Mar is not black No No he's not Okay What in the mirror?

You got to hit it because that was... I feel like maybe Timberlake was feeling the heat of someone taking the emperor's new clothes. And he decided, okay, well, I'm going to go a whole other direction. And, you know, Farrell probably got in his ear because the whole... Trap country. Yeah, the whole Miley Cyrus stuff that he did on Miley's record, which was mildly received okay. Like, he tries some trap country thing with her. and it's like, all right, let's do what you,

and it's going to work, it's going to work. And plus, like, Chad came back. It was like the Neptunes reunion. Yeah, yeah. I was all ready for it. But the thing is, is that I think what really messed him up at the end of the day was the whole situation in Virginia

with the T-Torches. Yeah, the Charlottesville shit, yeah. Oh, he fucked up. Yeah, I mean, the time was wrong. He still committed to it. He should have scrapped the album because the whole commercial campaign was like torches and...

Yeah, it was fucking trees. And, like, it was mountains and shit. He should have sat down with us and let us ask him these questions that the world been one to ask him especially. He was sick. He was sick. Child, he was on Fallon the same day. He didn't talk. He didn't speak.

Oh, that's right. He did a whole, okay. Yeah, he, no, he literally couldn't talk. Wait, what's Bruno Mars? He's Hawaiian. He's Hawaiian. He's a lot of Hawaiian. Okay.

He's not Hawaiian. There's not a such thing I don't think it's Hawaiian by ethnicity. Polynesian? He's, yes. Yeah, but he's not Polynesian. I thought he's Filipino. Okay, word up. Filipino.

He's Filipino. You know. He used to, when he was a five-year-old, he was an Elvis impersonator. Yeah, I think that and accepting the halftime show was in poor taste. Yeah, yeah. If he didn't accept the halftime show. Wait, this year? He's doing it this year?

No, he did it last year. He did it this year. And Janet was not there. No, for real. And I think that's probably why he fired his publicist. No, I want, I just like want Janet. I want them to perform again, right? And for him to do that.

And to pull the titty out of year. And then for her to be like, this isn't a big deal. Pull a piece of his crotch out. To pull that titty out of year. I bet she like would go to like open whatever his crotches.

Yeah, that's all be dope. And then we'd all be like where is it? Where? Reis Ory's all the Pond was my joy. And my homie, shout out the Jarias. He did a cover of waves. Yes. That shit is fine. Not only did you, you linked it to us, but I linked it to him.

Oh, wow. JT. I never told you, right? Mm-mm. Oh, he loved that shit out of it. Okay, word of it. Yeah. So he gave that respect.

Word up. Okay. How can we pronounce his name? X, X, X, X, X, X, X, Tachian. Yeah. That's not, we can't laugh now. He's called Triple X. He's gone.

Probably to me the most disturbing music occurrence was watching his live murder on YouTube. I didn't watch it, man. Oh, my God. It was on your two? Bro, they had the footage. I didn't know that. I didn't watch it. I was like, I'm not watching this.

People completely brutal. To be, to be. To be brutally honest, I just didn't care. That's real. I mean, that's real. He just had, I mean, and not like caping for the nigger, but like, he had a fucked up story. He had a very fucked up story. He didn't stand a chance.

Yeah. It was sad. I want to see a bunch of, like, white news anchors try to pronounce his name. That's always the joy I find of those situations where they're like, It took her. Yeah, we couldn't. Can I ask y'all about some of these younger people? Like these, you're talking about...

I don't know who they are. Well, I know Bill don't know, but like this trap revision. Everybody got a trap revision. And I was listening... No, I was listening to M-S-E-G-O. He said he does trap jazz. Who? S-E-G-O.

He got the joint. I haven't heard it. I think you would like it. He has a joint called M-A-S-E-G-O. He has a joint called Lady-L-L-E-L-E-M-A-M-E-E-M-A-G-E-O. That's a jam, but it's basically prototype. And what? Well, then I'll just go listen to the prototype.

He's from D.C. He plays like five instruments, but he sings, he raps, he does some trap jazz. He got some, he got some jazz. And he got a couple songs with Gold Link. Lady Lady is the one, though. I didn't like that Gold Link album. Do you say what? I didn't like the Gold Link album.

Not a song? It proved to me that what I loved most about his first. Well, it proved to me that he couldn't afford to clear the samples that were on the mixtape because that's pretty much the only reason I like the mixtape. Because I listen to you in the album and I was like, yeah, these beats aren't hitting. So. Oh, Ben. Big,

you know, like, crew? Hmm? Crew? What was that? That's the one. That's the gym. You ain't like, wait.

You ain't, what about palm trees on the insecure soundtrack? Y'all acting like I listen to the shit more than once. Welcome to the Quest Love Supreme Group chat. These are, Bill, this is actually really good music. What up? Is it? The jam that, Ketranah produced,

uh, the beat is, like, I've never, Not since, like, Spodioli Doopalicious Have I ever been jealous? I gotta find it now. Is it vocals on?

It's just a track. No, it's vocals, though. It's a song. Oh, man. But the drums are just, it sounds, the intro sounds like tainted by Slum Village. Oh, wow. It's like, it's a hard drum track.

I'm gonna find it before the episode. Kitchen out, he put out a lot of shit. I've never seen someone nurse fries for so long. You just like every 10 minutes. You like, like, Like a one waffle fry out of a chick-fil-a bag In a way that I can't even understand Like I would have down that in two minutes

And been hungry I'm just trying not to chew all up in the microphone Man, what is the status on end game? Oh, first off, let's go the roots I mean, black plot, strings of thought All year, right? Volumes one and two. All year, volume's one in two.

Two spitting albums. Yeah, it's... He said two spitting albums. No, it's just straight spitting. Yeah. You know, it's weird. Slowly, I promise you, we'll be out by the first quarter of the year. It's going to have to be, or I'm going to get murdered.

Yes. Russ is hard at work. Oh, you know what else? That happened this year that was quite fucking awesome. Someone didn't tell us? Okay, so this is what it was, man. So I was in a group called Little Brother, like, some, like, a long time ago. And they formed each other.

No, it was another life, nigga. That shit was. Okay. First of all, he's being very modest. He is Drake's idol. Like the shit that you see Drake on right now, Drake has already called, stalked him, whatever, wrote. So he is, Fonte is the kind of,

he's the base of what the internet is now for music. His band made their album without a professional studio. They did it on a computer. Back then was like some revolutionary, what was it, 2005? 2001. No, that was like, oh, 1001. 2001, nobody was thinking of just doing an entire album on your computer and making it sound professional.

So he's being very modest on what his position is right now. And he has a tangless water heater. Hey, listen, man. Forward thinking and eco-friendly. So, yeah, man. So I had a group and, like, we were together and we broke up whatever. So anyway, so there's a thing in, there's a festival in our hometown called the Art of Cool Festival Music Festival.

And it's like a two-day thing. So the guy that runs a festival, my homie Suleiman, he hits me on a Saturday. And he's just like, yo, I need a favor. And I'm just like, oh, shit. What does this mean? And he's just like, yo, man, Royce missed his flight. So the lineup was Royce the 5-9, Nause, and then Erica was the headliner. So he was like, yo, man, Royce missed his flight.

Would you be down to do like, you know, just 20, 30 minutes for me, whatever? and I'm like, all right, well, what time would you need me? He's like, you know, stage time is 7.45. What time is it? It is 4.30 when he calls me. PM? Yes. It is 430 when he calls me.

So I'm like, all right, well, let me just see what I can pull together. So I called my show DJ, my homie DJ Flash. I call him first. I don't get an answer. He was busy whatever. So I called 9th. Me and 9th, who was the DJ and Little Brother, producing Little Brother, we had been hanging the night before.

And so I hit him and I'm just like, yo, man. And I got an opportunity. They want me to do a show. But I think it really fucked people up if we did a little brother show. And he was just like, yo man, I don't know. I don't know if we can do. He's like, how do you think we pull off?

I think we pull the shit off. Who gives a shit? Wait, ninth actually had... Yeah, he had reservations. He said anything but... Meep, me. Yeah, yeah, no, yeah. So the crazy shit, so the hero of the story,

the unsung-hung-hero is my partner, Big Pooh. Now, Poo, he lives in Charlotte, which is like two hours, two and a half hours, like from where we are, from where the show is happening. So I said, well, I said, well, hold on, man. Well, let me just check. I'm on the phone when I said, hold on, let me hit Suleiman back and see what's up. So I hit Suleiman, the promoter.

I'm like, yo, man, keep this quiet. But listen, what if there's an opportunity if I could get little brother to get? He was like, dude, shut the fuck up. Don't play with me like that. Don't fucking play with me, dog. Don't say that. I'm like, yo, I'm just trying to see if we can do it. So he's like, all right, cool.

So I called Poo, and I'm like, listen, Pookew sent me to voicemail, which he's been known to do a lot. So I call right back. So I call right back. And he's like, yo, what's up, man? I was in the middle. I said, let me hit you right back. I said, no, this is not a hit me right back call.

Like, we have opportunity, but if we're going to do it, you have to leave, like, right now. Like, you have to get on the road right now if it's going to happen. And he was like, oh, shit, all right. So long story short, Poole left Charlotte. And in the two hours that he was driving to Charlotte, me, knife and Flash put the show together on flashes on knife's laptop and then we hit the stage I think

at like 830 push it back a little bit we hit the stage like 8 and that was it. What was the artist's reaction to like... In Carolina. They were, yo, okay, so this is where I turn into the quest love of the show. That shit was whatever. I mean, listen,

it was like, you know, like when you do a hometown show, like it was a lot of things. So first, no one knew the shit was happening, you know what I mean? So we just put it up on IG like a hour or two before and let them know. But when we got out there, I mean, nigga, the show we were headlining for is

fucking Royce, Nause, and Erica. So it's niggas and lawn chairs out there. Like, it's not really our audience. You know what I'm saying? Right. You feel me? It's Eric. It's low-key kind of jazz fest. You feel me? Oh, man. So, I mean, but listen,

I mean, they gave up for, we had a good time, but, like, had we did that show in New York, L.A. You got to do it again. That shit would have been bonkers. But, I mean, it was, we had fun. It was our first time on stage together and probably like, fucking 13 years. There's a festival of Philadelphia. I've heard. I've heard. I've heard. I've heard.

I've heard. Is that loud? I've heard. I got really excited. I've heard about said festival. You know, not for nothing. Those festivals, that's a nice surprise. And then last year since the whole main state. And then you know. And we just got our headlining this year. And we got our headline in this year. This is this in year in 2018, the Roos Picnic kind of got rained

down. Nobody really got to see the surprises that you had in store. Yeah, we did get rained out. By the side of the stage, Randy was waiting to go. Like, it was just, and it was sad. It was a lot. It was Katrina backstage, you know?

We made it. It was backstage. I was out in gin pop by the wing truck. Yeah. That's where we had. That's where we go. Every root's big day by the wing truck, Pete Ponte.

Yeah, we were out there posted. Okay, wait. Let's get back to music. Yes. Well, that was music. That was music. All right. The other misstep,

according to people, was Jack White going electric. What? They didn't fuck with that. Yeah, critics were... I didn't check it. I didn't check it. I mean, I dug it. What was the response to Lenny's album?

The Rays Vibration album. How was that? It came out. It came out. It came to him in a drink. It came. It came. It came and went. Yeah, it came and went. Okay. You know what? Okay. I will say this and not because she's making me do this, but I actually listened to an album from beginning to end and actually liked it 100%.

you will really like Cali Uch's album Okay, okay It is like a well-crafted Like each song is like Oh, that song's catchy Oh, that song's really good Well that song's really like

Like, not since the days of Prince Do I think like each song was like Oh damn, I like that I like that I like okay So I never had nothing I just didn't wasn't familiar on her shit But I'll give her a listen I only because when I did that initial

Stuff I'm feeling in 2018 post where I did get like the 10 records I dug. Yeah, yeah. She was like sarcastic, like, so I guess I didn't stand a chance, right? And I felt bad. So then I put it on and then I was like, oh, shit, I fucked up. Like, I low-key love the shit. So my shit right now on some rap shit.

Dirty computer. Did you? Oh, I'm sorry. Oh, Dirty, Janelle. Yeah. I like the intro. It was a big argument in the group text. Yeah.

It was a big argument in the group text. Don't y'all remember. Yes, it was. But I'm going to be real. It was, and everybody ended up agreeing with me eventually. Because I was. I was with you off rip. I was with you off rip.

And I was like, I love that she living in her. I'm loving it. I was loving it. No, I love, but I feel like that was the angle. But the music, execution on the last two albums has not been there, in my opinion. Like, Metropolis and Archangroy were fucking excellent. I don't know what the hell happened on Electric Lady and Dirty Computer. They all had moments.

No, they all have moments. Yeah, they all have moments, but. You take them folk albums. I give you a dope album. They're like two. moments each on those last two records. And those are like 80-minute albums. And that's about what?

Eight minutes total. So 10% of the album is good. That is not good. So you're saying basically you could take her full albums and make a Kanye EP out of the hell. No. No, just like you... Leave Metropolis alone.

Leave Archadadad alone. Those last two albums are the ones that need to be chopped up in. No, I got like full songs on them last two. Wait, this is not necessarily 100% music. It's a little bit comedy. Let's go. Music slash comedy. Adam Sandler is 100% fresh.

It was great. It was a masterpiece. A masterpiece. I did not expect to get teary-eyed at the end of the Adam Sandler special. It was so good. It was like, and like I, you know. Who knew? I love jokes.

I love punch lines. I love jokes. And he had a lot of really good jokes. And then he did the, like, towards the end, he does this Chris Farley thing that was like, it was, it was like touching but also funny, you know? Which is really hard to do, and I think people take that for granted. Like people sometimes just go emotional and think that's like, oh, that's easy. Like, not easy.

They're like, this is effective. And I'm like, no, that's easy. That's emotional is easy. But he did it in a way where I was like, oh, it's touching and funny. Have you seen it? I haven't seen it yet. I heard it was done. Not since Tarek's 10 minute freestyle.

I'm more amazed at the amount of text and perfection in the, because the way that it It's presented. You know, he does like silly songs with this guitar. Yeah. So, like, it's almost like vignettes. It's like joke song, joke song, joke song. But first of all, it's done in a format that's, you remember our Chris Rock's thing was like four different venues.

Oh, and all in one. So think of that, but like on steroids. And the amount of songs that he did and, like, again, Neil Brennan was like, dude, watch, watch Sandler. I guarantee you're going to watch it probably 15 times in two weeks and you're going to do like maybe four or five like hyperbolic over the top endorsements. And just out of the fine, it's like, fuck you, Neil, I ain't doing that shit.

And I put it on and then instantly like I started grabbing my head. I was like, no, I'm not going to do it. Like I held back the longest of doing some glowing shit. But I almost felt like it. It was like the Rihanna record. Like I didn't want to over. I didn't want to overpraise it to the point where Adam Sandler were like, think, like, wait, so you really saying like you thought I sucked all those years and finally I created some. Now I got one good one. But this is.

Wait, Rihanna ended up doing something like that? No, anti was. Yeah, I know, I know. I purchased a records as a DJ that needs to spin the song of the moment, not as I, as listening. I never thought that, you know. I'd actually be jamming to Rihanna. Yeah, like, I put it on just because I want to listen to it. Yeah.

So it's, I mean, it's like, it's, it's so good. It's, I don't know, I, I, I, I loved it so much. What did you think as a, oh, I'm sorry. No, I was going to ask you over as a comic, um, well, comedian. What, is comedian or comic? Which one do you prefer? Yeah, are we allowed to have the, is it bad for us to add the E? Comedian, comedian of comedian.

Comedian. I think we're all comedians. I don't think no one, yeah. I think we're all the same. The guy, and I can't remember his name, but Jared Carmichael directed special on HBO. Oh, Drew Michael? I was just no audience. What did you think of up?

I'm friends with both of those guys. I'll preface this with that. Watch that. I liked it, but I'm curious to hear a comics take on. I hated it. I absolutely hated it. I think you, I mean, the audience takes out all the risk. Like, if you don't have an audience, it's not like, you don't know the stakes.

You don't feel anything, you know? Someone did that. And David Allen Greer told us about, remember? And it's also like the way it was paced, he didn't even leave room for a lapse. So, like, he didn't pause enough to be like, this is the end of the joke. Right. And I felt like not having an audience there and, like, cutting to, like, those Skype conversations or whatever they were, which were mind-numbingly boring. Tell them how you really feel.

Talk that shit. Yeah, I really want to see it. Like, if she doesn't like it, now I want to see it. But, I mean, like, it. I hated the chronic. I felt like it. He didn't leave room. Leave room for like,

I feel like he didn't think he had the punchlines to land so they went no audience. I mean, I don't think that's why they originally did it but like that's where it went to. And I don't know, I just, you need an audience. You need someone there. I'm going to watch it again.

And that's why I wanted to get your take on because I enjoyed it, but I always thought what another comedian was like, would you watch Deaf Comedy Jam without an audience? Nah, because the audience was such a big part of them. my original. Yeah, everybody jump music. Yeah, but like comedy isn't music, you know, like, you need, like, it's not that you need an audience there, you just,

taking the audience away is... But do you not feel that rules need to be broken? How do you even know? How do you know? I talk about this. Chris Rock is trying to figure out, like, what's his next move? Right. And so I made a list. I was like, well, here's things that never happened before. I never heard of a studio comedy album, like, without an audience. Right. And I, I never knew this thing again. existed. And I told him, like, why don't you try, like, greatest hits, like, you covering other comics? I thought of every idea that a comic could do that hasn't been done yet. I feel like that rule could be broken. Like, I feel like Bob Newhart could have pulled it off. That rule could

have been broken had he not put in those Skype conversations. Those Skype conversations felt like, okay, this joke ended. I'm going to go back to this weird thing. It was like, no, it still needs to be stand-up, you know, it still needs to be like, you have to be like, I think one of the things that's good about stand-up is that you're vulnerable upstate, on stage, by yourself, you know, like, you are, and you're putting it out there. Yeah, no, you're on a fucking tightrope.

And you're dictating how people react. And, you know, like, when you don't even give them time to do that, it's like, I don't know why I'm here, I don't know why I'm watching this. It almost seemed like he didn't want us to laugh at it. Oh, yeah. Which I'm like, that's not the purpose of this. The purpose of

comedy is for laughter. I'm gonna watch it again now. Like, now that I have your take on, I'm gonna watch it with your notes in mind. If you want to hear what I have to say about Nanette, I have 90 minutes on it. I still gotta watch the Annette. I haven't watched it.

Don't. Talk on it. Speak on. It is the worst comedic thing I've ever seen in my entire life. It is so bad. First of all, how bad is it?

She goes in there and she starts off with a couple like soft jokes. Like one of the jokes is so hacky I want to like What's the joke? Can you explain what hack is? I always hear you guys say Like something that's been done a million times

You know like it's I don't know I don't know enough about music To relate it to something But Hey what's up with the Yeah Okay

And so the joke is she goes She goes People say comedy isn't the best medicine Penicillin That joke was written The Day Penicillin was invented And it makes me so angry I wish penicillin wasn't around.

And then she goes on to be like, she goes on to be like, comedy's not good enough to tell my story. It's like, no, bitch, you're not good enough at comedy to use it to tell your story. You're discounting how hard comedy is. And then she goes, she goes, jokes only have a beginning and a middle. It's like, no, jokes have a beginning and a middle and an end. The ends are hard. They're really fucking hard. They're really hard to get.

And she just can't do them. That's why she's not doing it. Wait, you're talking about the lady from down under with the glasses that everybody's raving over. Terrible. The worst comedic thing I've ever seen. What's her real name? It was Nanette is the name of the show, but what's for real? I just think of her as Nanette.

So she's retiring for real or not? No, no, no. She thinks she's still in this and it's like, it's, everyone praise it. It's like is this big emotional thing. It's like it's easy to be emotional. That's why there are a million actors. It's very hard to be funny. That's why there's like a couple, being generous, a couple dozen comedians.

I wonder if this is why I don't like Tupac that much. Because Tupac was very emotional. I don't really think he was a great rapper. No, he wasn't. He wasn't a good emcee. Yeah. I think people were in love with Bishop. Yeah.

And carried the feelings of him in juice over to. Give me food for thought. Oh, I've made this very public. It's easy to be a moment. No, yeah, we don't do. It's like 30 years later. So what was like a good? You said, Oulu, like, I'm about to get shot.

And some people are real passionate still. I don't know. I think the people are real passionate about that shit now. Arde. Yeah, you're in 50s and shit. Yeah. Niggas is old. I ain't nobody doing that.

So what's like your example or for you, what's like a dope stand-up, like comedy special or just someone like you like? I mean, like, I like a lot of the people that I'm a big Dave Chappelle fan. I think everything he does. The stuff he's doing right now. I think is some of his best stuff ever, which I think is saying a lot because he's done a lot of great stuff in the past.

You know, I've always been a big Chris Rock fan. I really want, I like that he's asking what his next thing is. Like trying to figure it out. He's trying to figure it out. Yeah. We went to see Bill Burr. First of all, who knew,

who knew that Bill Burr could sell out the Madison Square Garden? I'm not really surprised. No, he's done it before. Like, he's, he's, Bill Burr is one of my favorites, too. I think he's absolutely amazing. Well, Chris explained to me, like, Bill's like the last bro, you know, that he's the last white comedian or the last hetero.

He explained, I was trying to, when we went there, I thought he was going to be in baby MSG, like the Paramount Theater. Yeah. When we went there, it was like the Purple Ring concert was about to start. Wow. I saw people to the ceiling. And I was like, there's no way that Bill Burr is selling out Mass and Square Garden. One of the most impressive things about him is it's just because of comedy.

He's not a movie star. He's not a TV star. So those aren't Breaking Bad fans? Yeah. They're not coming out from breaking bad. They're just, he's a hardcore. Like, yeah, he's done little stuff here and there, but they're hardcore comedy fans. He's got like a ton of specials on Netflix, right?

Yeah. Yes, but I just saw him. He was just in something. He was just in some movie, some screener. Oh, he was in the frontrunner. The front runner. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, he was in that.

He was in that. And that was cool. But it's like a little part. It's not big. You know, like it's kind of Chappelle in the same way where he does little stuff here and there. Yeah, I mean, I don't know.

I was a big Joan Rivers fan. I love that she never pulled a punch. That lady was always out there. I mean, whatever she wanted to say. I think if she were alive, Trump would not have gotten elected. Because she would have punched him. Like, Trump's a bully, right?

So like, and she would. She was on the... She was on the apprentice. She won. She's... And she's someone that like, she... Her bottom line is money. You know?

Like, so she... Since the jewelry. Yeah. Remember that? I don't know. I mean, I have a... I like jokes. I like strong jokes.

I like people that, like, really try to be funny in a unique way that hasn't happened before, which is getting harder and harder. but like come up with new premises and new takes that it's hard to do now. I keep hearing that. So, all right. So Stephen Wright doesn't tell jokes, but he's funny. Like, to you, that's like all comedy. Stephen Wright does all, Stephen Wright does one-liners.

So, I mean, it's a long string of jokes. It's not anything in depth. This is so weird. I thought you would be Team Brooklyn. No, no, no. What does that mean? What is Team Brooklyn? Are you denying Team Brooklyn the way?

that maybe in 1998 I would deny Neo Soul like no man I listen to UGK

I'm a UGK I'm a UGK fan We work with Project Fat We work with Project Fat There's definitely room For Alt Comedy The Alt comedy I think

Sometimes that's done in Brooklyn These days is like not It's still not good comedy Like the ultimate Alt comedian is Adam Sandler and he's up there doing music he's got a guitar, he's got videos, he's got Rob Schneider

flying in from this. In a way that like you were like, if you hated Rob Schneider, you were like, I love this guy. Never did. I mean, I've always been a Rob Schneider fan, but like he did a thing where I was just like, this is the funniest thing.

And I feel like he riffed a couple lines that made them both crack up. But like Adam Sandler is an alternative comedian. The problem with a lot of the stuff that's happening, in Brooklyn is none of them are as funny as that. So what is the difference?

Explain us, what's the difference between Brooklyn comedy versus Manhattan comedy? I mean, there's a lot happening in Brooklyn right now that's just like a lot of people in their feelings that are like, my problem with a lot of Brooklyn comedy right now, it's a lot of white women telling you what you should be offended by. Like, so if you make a joke, like, there's like a lot of good jokes surrounding like either race or like tensions that are happening in America right now. And white women will go, you can't say that. And I'm like, I can't think of a more white woman thing

than to tell people what to be offended by. You know, to be like, we shouldn't be laughing at this. I was like, maybe let the people that the joke is about decide that. Decide weather, right. Before you start making up all your rules. And then going back to your Brooklyn apartment that used to belong to a black family until you price them out. Not for nothing, but it's been the interesting year for the white woman

and her nose being in business, right? It's either not a business. A white woman says it. The whole business is the white woman's natural habitat. It happened to me like a week ago on an airplane when a white woman said to me, she said, yeah, you know your bottles belong under your thing. I said, oh, are you a flight attendant and a passenger? She said, well, you know.

Wait, why she said your bottles belong? I had bottles in a bag, duty free. I was coming from Jamaica. Coming from Jamaica had bottles in the air thing, in the top thing. And I was moving them aside. I said, oh, you want to put your bag there, it's fine. She said, you know, but technically you know your bottles should be under your seat. That's what she said to me.

And I said, really, are you the flight attendant and the passenger? And then she said, well, I actually fly like once a month, so I kind of know. Bitch, I fly once a week. I'm like, oh, my mom was a flight attendant in a boy three years. I don't know shit. Like, whatever. But is this white lady? White women love rules.

You got barbecue Becky doing the plane? Exactly. I got barbecue Becky in my building. What? I got like the, my super, my bookman. He was the white bookman. I got him fired. Yeah.

Word up. And another one bites the dust. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what you're saying. Yep, that's me, Cliver Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football, or my career in sports media.

There's two golden rules that any man should live by. Rule one, never mess with a country girl. You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes. And rule two, never mess with her friends either. We always say that trust your girlfriends.

I'm Anna Sinfield. And in this new season of the girlfriends, oh my God, this is the same man. A group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist. I felt like I got hit by a truck. I thought, how could this happen to me? The cops didn't seem to care. So they take matters into their own hands.

I said, oh, hell no. I vowed. I will be his last target. He's going to get what he deserves. Listen to the girlfriends. Trust me, babe. On the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. This week on the Sporting, I imagine.

And for more, follow Timbo Slical Life 12 and TikTok podcast network on TikTok. Wait, guys, okay, we've been in forever. Sorry.

We got to end on one note. Okay. Okay, because I feel like we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention the Kanye 5 or just the Kanye fuckery. Okay. He's ignored all of it. I listened to all of them. I gave him my honest, listen. You know what's weird?

Tiana Taylor was my favorite. Wow. I was, that was the one I wanted to be my favorite. That was one I was waiting on. I thought it was. I like three joints. Okay, so you, you fell for, fell.

You, like, push your teeth. Push. With the E.R. I thought the push had, I thought the push her has spoke about it. I'm so busy. I thought push her had some joints on it. I did.

I thought push her had some joints. I gave none of them any of my time. I thought push that, like, push it had a couple. I like hard, hard piano. That was my join on the push out. And then what came after that, it was, Nah, was,

Nah, he was after that. Yeah, he was after that. Yeah, he was after that. Jesus Christ, yeah. Yeah, I ain't, no, I ain't listening to that. Then, that got them, the kids, he goes, that shit was just weird.

I ain't fuck all that. Then it was damn, uh, Nause, no. Then, Tiana Taylor. She, it was a couple I like. And I'm a fan.

Shout out to her. She finally put an album out. I like the first album. Her first album was dope. Yeah. Just wanted to shout her out because she finally put her album out. Yeah.

A second one. The second one. Another one. Who? Tiana Taylor. Yeah. But yeah, it was just, yeah, that shit, it was just a bunch of me, man. So is there ever coming back?

I like Ghost Town. Ghost Town. Ghost Town. Is that ghost town? One song. On his album. On his album? Oh, there is a ghost.

Yeah, yeah. We didn't even commit to memory the, um. I played that shit one time and I was like, I heard nothing. Didn't that come out the same week as Black Thoughts or something? I don't. Yeah, they came out the same day. Yeah. What?

Yeah. And I was like, I'm, I'm, yeah. I missed off. I mean, I was bumping reek shit, but I, yeah. I made through the A-1, I was like, okay. I always think that when I listen to Kanye, I always think, like, because I have someone like my running playlist and I'm like, does he realize he's making music for white women to run to?

Oh, he would love that. That would be, like, the most, the greatest, you know what I'm saying? Endorsement that he could receive. He would love that. Yeah, they can have him. Well, Sorry. Sorry.

I'm sorry. I mean, other things have happened. I forgot the end. My feelings challenge and the Drake and the Dracon almost push a T. Oh, the Drake and Push-A. Yeah, I skipped all that too. That was a war. You know what the weirdest thing for me?

Like, Stinging Shaggy? Yeah, that was weird. Sting and Shaggy. Here's the thing, though. Okay, so we were. Actually, no, it's not weird. It's, all right, here's the deal. I feel like through Shaggy, Sting was finally allowed.

to be the Jamaican he always wanted to be. I mean, man, yo. The fucking police put out, I'm gonna call it regatta de Blanc. Right, that's what I'm saying. White reggae. I mean, come on. We did, when we, all right, so we did a gig with Sting and Shaggy where we were the band, and I was trying to figure out, okay, how did this, this arranged marriage become?

And the thing was, they have the same management, and they are actually, like, personally cool with each other. They're friends. And so, during that performance, I was like, yo. Like, these two are actually, like, their own, like, war-hearted situation. Like, it, I can see it. You know, I mean. That was terrible.

You hated the gig, Steve. She was whacked. Stinging Shaggy? Hey, listen, man, I wasn't there. And it wasn't me. It wasn't me. All right. Does Shaggy still do bombastic?

Yeah, we did it. Ro, roo. Ro. M. Salvo. M. Like, you all know. You can hate it, but we all know it. Oh, dog.

It wasn't me saved my life. Like, the money that it wasn't me made, that probably funded things fall apart. You had, you, oh, oh, okay, yeah, I got you. No joke. Like, they literally said, like, all these videos we let y'all shoot and this tour support, this is jagged money. All right.

Can I ask before we go one more question? Yes. So, did you guys have a favorite QLS episode? Of 2018. Damn, I ain't even get the question out, son. You know me. I'm just so excited to answer right now. I like this stinging shaggy episode we did.

I feel like the, um, I personally enjoyed the, the Patrice Russian episode. Yes. When was the Greg Philling Gaines episode? That was this year. That was February, I think, right? That was, yeah, yeah. Probably my favorite, yeah, like my favorite two-parter is, I think the Greg Phylland-Ganes episode to me was.

you know, he knows how to tell his story. And, you know, one episode was Stevie Wonder. The other was Michael Jackson and Quincy. And it taught us a lot. So I'll say that between Greg Phil and Gaines and Patrice Russian, that to me was like really awesome. That was dope. So, Michelle, what would you like to see in 2019?

Besides an impeachment? Well, I don't know if I want an impeachment because I don't, Mike Pence is worse, maybe. And if you get rid of him, then you got Paul Ryan. No, he's got. He's leaving. That's right. That's right.

But still, it's going to be replaced by someone terrible. Just as terrible. Probably worse. Lindsay Graham. Yeah. I mean, I just want people to start being, like, honest about stuff rather than taking sides. You know, like, I know there's, like, a huge division right now between right and left. It's like, let's just, like, be really honest.

We've destroyed the world. Climate change is a real big thing that we need to focus on. Yeah, there's all these little side crises, but like let's just realize as America how, first of all, how racist we are. And like start like, start trying to like build us back up in a way where like, yeah, these are our problems. I would like 2019 to be like an airing of grievances.

Oh, I'm ready for that. Festivus for the rest of us. 2019 should be a year of Festivist where we're like, these are all our issues. Let's get them out in the open. Let's finally talk about them. I don't want to even about women. Cession no more.

Please. What did you say? I don't want to hear about women's secession no more. It really bothers me. Women's secession? Yes. I mean, what was? I don't want to hear about voting and I don't want to hear about women.

I don't want to hear about women. Suffrage. Suffrage. That's what I've had a couple of drinks. I've had a couple of drinks. That's when the South decides to succeed from the United States. I've had a couple of drinks. Which might also happen.

I don't want to worry about that. Listen, I'm worried about that either. But no, women's suffrage. No more. Black women couldn't vote for another hundred. years white women don't really understand that that hurts. Stop doing that. Yeah, I mean, it would be really nice if, like,

white woman finally, all right. So, like, I think a big thing with, like, me too right now is it like, as white women in particular are looking for, to get, like, something to happen to things that happened to them in the past. You know, they're looking for some sort of punishment for things that happened in the past. I was like, that is not how you move forward. First of all, if people are looking for punishment

for things that happened in the past, you got black people, their receipt is way longer. And black women, their receipt is so long. So you're going to be in a line that's way, you know, like you're going to be waiting a real long time. Yeah. I want people to start being like, this is the shit that happened.

How do we move forward? How do we make things better for everybody? Yes, Michelle Wolf. Especially like white women. It's like, wrap your heads around the fact that, like, you have been part of the problem. Please watch at least watch the first hour 12-year-slave. You'll get it.

Yeah. You'll get it. Like, it's like, it's like you weren't victims this whole time. You were living in a cushy, air-conditioned house. You realize you are part of the problem and you kind of make it better now. You know what? Michelle Wolf and Ellen Pompeo. That's it.

That's what we got. That's the ticket. That's the ticket. That's it. That's it right now. Why my point in some pompant circumstance? I don't know, but it just, I was like, that's it right.

Yeah. Get it, but All right, well, Michelle, I thank you for coming on the show. Yeah, that's awesome. Our day after Festivist and Hanukkah. Steve, how was that check, by the way? Yeah, Hanukkah check, yeah.

It was great. It was great. I want to give a shout out to the Sugar Network, a big year for us. Yeah, right. Y'all doing big things, son. The year of the Sugar Network. All right.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, no, sure that, man, for real. That's why I didn't watch any TV or movies this year. Can I add one more thing? We spent like five minutes talking about music. Michelle and DeGiocello's Ventriloquism was my favorite album of the year. I just started listening.

Thank you, Bill, for that. Yeah, since it was dope. Elvis Costello put out of a new album this year. And I think it's no coincidence that no song on that album was written past 1994, and that's why it's the best album of the year. Because don't nobody know how to write a fucking song anymore. Oh. I think that deserves a theme song.

Shout out to Anderson, Pock. I love you, but I'm very. Very disappointed. Yeah, that motherfucker right there. Yeah, I love you, but come on, Boo. We got to do better. So wait. I'm tired of him releasing the next chapter of the eight shit-nigger digger he's here because of your album.

He ain't go. He ain't going. My shit right now is Griselda. Benny Conway the Machine, West Side Gunn, Benny the Butcher. It is like Cuban links to like the 10th power. Like it's just a nigger. It's just straight dope and coat rap over like dark ass. Even more than what's his name?

Normally does. Used to be in flip mode. Oh, Rock Marcy? Yeah. Yeah, even more than that. It's like more visceral than that. I love it. It is like the destruction of our community to the greatest music ever.

Yeah, I don't fuck with music no more. Also, if you're looking for some more not new recommendations from your friend Michelle Wolf. What's you got? I would say, E-L-O. You let your mind-words. All right now. You're on a show where people are.

that we actually know that. I did a one run this year where I made a playlist and there was a ton of ELO on that and every time they came on I was pleasantly surprised and always not sure if it was a new song or a song I had just heard. That was Jeff Lynn, right? Deep down inside, I think Steve and I

sort of agree that ELO is the greatest Beatles cover band of all time. That's all. All right. Well, I got to wrap up this show, y'all, or else it'll be 2019. Anyway, on behalf of Boss Bill, happy New Year. Unpaid Bill, who just went out to get some cigarettes. Maybe he'll run into DiAngelo while he's up there. Happy Guantz.

And, you know, Circus Steve and Circus Steve. It is. First day of Guanza. Really? Hurry up and wrap it up before she gets going. Oh, yes. And Michelle, I thank you very much. What's Love Supreme is a production of I Heart Radio.
